THE Fusion leaders in this Coun-
ty are simply paralyzed at the
strength and vigor of the Repub-
lican campaign. Three weeks ago
they told the people that the Re.
publican campaign was over
that all the Republican speakers
had gone south and that the Fusion
lists would have it all their own
way in North Idaho from thence
on until November 6. But the
Republican campaign progressed
just as vigorously as ever, and still
the speakers come. The Republi-
cans will even hold more rallies the
last week of the campaign than the
Fusionists. The Republican cam
paign will relax only when the
oils close November 6.

For the sake of speculation, sup.
pose the improbable proposition
that Tom Glenn should be elected
TO congress from Idaho; and further
suppose that the Idaho legislature
should follow recent tendency in
Western states-get into a dead
lock and fail to elect a senator.
Then Idaho would be represented
in congress by Heitteld and Glenn.
Would that not be fine spectacle?
Vote for John T. Morrison, a man
who will be in harmony with the
administration, and whose force of
character will command influence
and reflect credit on Idaho, the
Gem Of the Mountains.

Another Fatal Comparison.

sioners and the methods of Repub-
lican Commissioners in the conduct
of public affairs in Kootenai Coun-
ty, the more we find favorable to
the Republicans.
In 1892, the Democratic Board
of County Commissioners decided
to issue County Funding Bonds to
the amount of $4,000. The Idaho
State Constitution required them to
submit the question as to whether
these bonds should be issued or not,
to vote of the people at special
election called for the purpose, but
this Democratic Board and it's
Democratic legal adviser, who was
being paid $1,000 per annum for
his services, did not see fit to allow
the people to pass upon this i'm
portant question. The reason why
they did not submit the question
to the people may be inferred,
when the records show that this
Democratic Board of County Com
mlssioners during their term of
Office increased the debt of the
County more than $4,000. This
Democratic administration issued
these bonds arbitrarily and by its
own order, but their high handed
course did not stop here. Bids for
these bonds we're advertised for and
number of bids were filed by par
ties who desired to buy the bonds.
Rollins & Sons of Denver, a
prominent financial house of that
city offered to take the entire issue
of $75 1000 at par, and pay prem
ium of $1250. The Commissioners
at first decided to receipt this offer,
but as subsequent events proved
there was nothing in it for them,
and by some clever jugglery, Roll
Inns q Sons, were prevented from
buying the bonds. Thereupon one
George B. McCauley, a Democratic
speculator, offered to take the
: bonds for syndicate which he
claimed to represent, but he de-
named that the Commissioners
should pay him out of the County
Treasury a commission Of 4 per
cent for negotiating the sale of the
bonds, and that he should be
r further paid the sum of $500, for
: having these bonds Autographed.
J This offer was accepted, the bonds
were sold, McCauley received his
commission of $4,000, and 1900. for
having the bonds lithog raphed, and
the Democratic Commissioners and
? the Democratic speculator. who re-
! pr esel,ted both the purchaser of the
e bonds and the county in the trans
f action, were happy.
e In 1895 the Republican Board o.
e Commissioners desired to place the
County on a cash basis, as they
were required by law to do. but in
order to do this it was necessary tC
issue bonds to tie amount o
$4,000.
Our Republican Commissioner
submitted the question as to wheth
er these bonds should be issued o
not to vote of the people at 4
special election called for the pur
pose.
The people voted for the bono
issue, and the Republican Commits
sioners sold these bonds at a preni
UNI, and no commission was paiC
to any Republican Spectator oil

and Republican methods in the al

large a short interest had been eliminated

demand for stocks and the supporting
influence of this element deprived the bull
pools of a very effectual source of
strength. The campaign for the rise was
by no means abandoned. On the con-

forts were made towards continuing the
upward movement of prices. The notable
buying of the day was in Union Pacific,
in which transfers of 1000. 1900 and even
1900 share lots were frequently recorded
on the tape. 1t was the advance in price
that brought out these offerings and they
were confidently absorbed by the brokers
having the advance in charge. On the

THE EUCALYPTUS TREE,
1t Lives During Drought by Stealing Wa

1t Lives During Drought by Stealing Wa
ter From Other Trees
The eucalyptus tree, which grows ev.
erywhere in southern California, is well
adapted to dry climate. because 1t is
able to live without rain. This quail
ty is due to it's ability to appropriate to
itself, through it's roots. all the mois-
ture in the soil within n wide radius.
An illustration of this is cited by the
owner of an orange orchard. He no
ticed that the orange trees along the
edge of the orchard, which stood thirty
feet from a row of eucalyptus trees. did
not grow well. Extra allowances OF
water and dressing had no improving
effect. Finally he dug down beside the
orange trees and found network OF
roots coming from the eucalyptus
trees. They were absorbing the water
that belonged to the orange trees. The
orchnrdist thcreupon dug trench the
whole length of the row and chopped
off all the eucalyptus roots that he en-
countered. For year the orange
trees did finely. Then the eucalyptus
roots. having grown out again. caused
the orange trees to suffer for water
The owner thereupon cut the eucalyp-
tuS trees down.
