The drift of the country is to-
ward republicanism. The expan.
sion policy of the administration
will sweep the states of the Pacific
northwest into line for Mckinley.
California, Oregon and Washing.
ton are conceded and Idaho is
placed in the doubtful column.
But Idaho does not belong there.
Her place is in lire with the pro.
gressive development of the carry.
ing trade of tire Pacific. What.
ever is for the material benefit of
Washington and Oregon is for the
material benefit of Idaho. The
fortunes of these states are linked
iudissoluably. Idaho's rivers flow
to the sea and down these water
ways the commerce of the state
must be carried to market. The
policy that will foster and encour-
age the growing trade with the
Orient will build up great CONNER
cal centers on the Pacific that will
rival those of the Atlantic sea-
board. Idaho has every interest
tending for her future welfare di.
rectly joined with the upbuilding
of the Pacific carrying trade. On
the issues of this campaign Idaho
cannot afford to be out of line. No
state in the nation has anything
more at stake In the decision of the
issues than has Idaho, whose un-
developed resources demand trade
expansion which will continue the
marvellous development now just
beginning with the Pacific trade
with the Orient.

Letter to H. o. Butterfield,

SCGU0T0 Springs, COftU.
Dear Sir: We want an agent In your
town for the foremost paint in the world !:
Devoe lead and zinc. We bespeak a few
words to say how much more this means
than simply the sale of good paint.
Our agent has to administer this agree
ment with every customer.
eff you have any fault to find with this
paint, either now in putting 1t on, or here
after in the wear, tell your dealer about
it."
"We authorize him to do what is right
at our expense"
We become, you see, the partner OF
every man that uses our paint; and the
partnership lasts as long as he chooses to
continue it.
Suppose 100 jobs of painting are done
with Devoe lead and zinc this year, and
some of them don't turn out satisfactory
two or three years from now. Our agent
has got to edo what Is right at our ex-
pense."
OF course this means that we know our
paint is going to turn out ali right.
We have been In business, we and our
fathers in business, 145 years; have made
a great deal of paint, and have dealt with
thousands and thousands Of people. Are
not In the least afraid to edo what is
right" when a job goes wrong.
And, in this age of adulteration, we say
.'Send it to your state chemist. If he
finds it adulterated, we will pay his bill
and send you $780,"
There Is such thing as honest business
vet in the world.
Yours truly,

Henry Georges First Friend.
In the late seventies Henry George,
the single tax reformer, came east
from California. He was desperately
poor and had but few acquaintance.
Shortly after his arrival he lectured
before the Saturday Ethical club of
New York, where his brilliant oratory
and shabby attire made so striking
contrast as to excite the sympathy Of
those present.
After he left the club appointed a
committee to aid him in getting up
public lecture. Among others, the COM
mittee included Seth Low, who was
then engaged in business. He was in
consultation at the time, and the COM
mittee were in hurry, so he told them
to send him lot of tickets. They for
warded 20 to him the same day and

and inclosing a check for $3.50. The
affair was a success, netting about
$500, SO that President Low may be
said to have been the first man to start
Mr.. George on his eastern career.
Twenty years later, in 1897, Mr.. Low
was the citizens candidate and Mr..
George the labor candidate for mayor
of New York. The latter made a Wig
orous campaign and in all his speeches
advised the citizens, If they could not
vote for him, to vote for his friend
Seth Low, and on one occasion he said
that If it had not been for the latter
he would not be there as a candidate.
