Commercial Strategy.

The story of high retail prices,
the stock in trade of the would-be
rivals to Lewiston business houses
in remote sections, are being in
dustriously distributed to the in
jury of the retail trade of this city.
The miners and prospectors are
met on the trains, on the roads,
and at every possible point, and
told that supplies can be bought
cheaper at particular interior points
than at Lewiston. Thousands of
dollars OF retail trade have been
diverted from this point this spring
by the industrious agents of the
dealers at various rival points, who
have insinuated their seductive
stories, in season and out, into the
willing ears of strangers and others
unfamiliar with the facts in the
case. This undermining strategy
of trade has been prosecuted while
Lewiston merchants rested uncon-
scious of their impending ruin.
This condition can be effectually
met by concerted action only. The
facts are at hand to refute this cry
of high prices in Lewiston. Thou
sands of dollars in diverted trade
have rewarded the industry of the
inventors of this gain-inspiring cry.
The compensation already in hand
will perpetuate aud even extend
the schemes which have been SC
fruitful, unless extraordinary steps
are taken to advertise Lewiston
prices and the advantages which
justify low prices in this city.

camps do not cast off miueralized
quartz float. The mines of to-
day are great intrusive deposits
over the groupings of which the
ordinary float hunter would
pass without his attention being
attracted. 1t is surprising how
fads influence the great army of
prospectors. The great mines of
today were all discovesed by ten
der feet. The formation cranks
overran Buffalo Hump, Sumpter,
Republic, and, in fact, all the great
mines of today, and lett the prizes
to accident or to the tenderfoot who
was not hampered by prejudice for
particular formation. This pre-
JUDGE of the professional pros

industry back in the Clearwater

leached from the exposed ledge

with hobbies have discouraged de-

the Lewiston valley soil produces
the most prodigious crops of wheat,
oats and barley. These crops are
not exactly suited to our dry sea
Sous. There are doubtless crops OF
grasses, if not of grains, that would
insure the farmer against even par
tial failure when the dryest seasons
prevail. Nature stocked our prai-
ries with wild bunch grass that was
a perfect forage crop in wild state.
That cultivated crop can be found
by experiment that will be COM
paratively as valuable field
crop as our natural grass, is log
ical conclusion. Our rainfall is
not prohibitive of profitable field
culture of many crops. Rye grows
on our driest hills most prolifcally
in dry seasons. This good crop
might be supplemented with other
fodder plants for variety by careful
experiment. The Turkestan alfalfa
has promising future for our rich
sandy loan soils AT least there
is world of promise in the result
of experiments now under observa-
ton. A good fodder plant would
give great impetus to mixed farm
ing in the Lewiston valley. In this
idea lies our hope for the greatest
prosperity. With stock, fodder and
grain we will have the true eco
nomical elements of prosperous
farming community in the Lewis,
ton valley.

Political Commissions.

The Idaho fusionists are just

recognized as an inevitable condi-

With only one senatorship for three

will not be wonder if the whole
conglomeration is not thrown into
Mysteries. Dubois, the chronic can.

commissions are caused by the most
serious political puzzle Of the age.
Without Dubois there could be no
fusion, without fusion there could
be no senatorship to bestow, and
without senatorship there can be
no Dubois in the fusion.

Lest We Forget.


Whenever Steunenberg is at
tackled his henchmen raise the cry
of opposition to law and order. Is
Steunenberg then the true and only
representative of law and order ?
What is his record! He was elected
in 1896 upon platform which de-
nounced the use of federal troops
in putting down the anarchy that
reigned in the Chicago riots, and
after he was elected one of his first
official acts was to put his veto
upon the appropriation bills to pay
for the maintenance OF the state
militia used to preserve law and
order in the prior administration.
Personally he favored the disband-
ing of the militia in the Occur
d'Alenes, and was only kept from
carrying out his purpose by strong
protest in party council, backed
by an earnest appeal from the law
and order element in the Occur
d'Alenes.
During two years and four
months of the o.called reign OF
terror in the Occur d'Alenes S.eu-
nenberg was governor of the State
of Idaho, and he did not strike a
blow for the institution CT law and
order. He was governor of Idaho
when Fred Whitney was brutally
murdered, and when it was a com.
mon occurrence for men to be
driven out of Canyon creek at the
muzzle of guns held by masked
men. He was governor of Idaho
when the rifles were stolen from
the barrack- room of the militia
company at Gem, and during al
the long months from that day ill
