The portage railway at The
Dalles is being built, and boats
and barges are being constructed
to put water traffic line on the
Columbia and Snake rivers from
the head of navigation to the lower
river points which are reached by
deep-water vessels. This is a Sig
nifcant business proposition at this
time of reorganization of great
transportation systems. The river
service has more than one influence
to encourage its promotion. The
rivalry OF the lower country cities
has much TO do with schemes of
the railroad companies and the boat
builders. Portland is interested in
opening the river to get the pres
tige Of traihc system that will
oppose the railroad monopolies.
With a through boat line to Port
land no railroad eau afford to dis
regard the advantages of that point
as a distributing center for the
Willamette and the Inland Empire.
A boat line will force the recogni.
ton OF Portland by the Union Pa
cifc, o. r & N, Northern Pacific
and the Southern Pacific systems.
As long as Portland can draw from
the producing sections of thu In
land Empire as we'll as the Will
lamelte valley by an economical
freight traffic system she can draw
the ocean trade in large measure.
Portland, then, Is back of this boa,
system with substantial moral sup.
port perforce of circumstances if
not with money for construction.
Any condition that will give Port
land a reduction of freight on
wheat or ore from the interior will
bring her a great bulk of trade for
internal distribution. We can count
on help for the maintenance of a
river system that will be perpetu-

Lewiston has within the past
year become a trade center in a
sense never realized before. Nari-
Gus and important interests Of the
tributary district have become
firmly established by incidents Of
the year just past and these inter
ests make Lewiston an important
trade center by virtue of geograph.
ical relation.
The various interests of this
district, which comprises more
than half the area of a circle 200
miles in diameter, demand a COM
mon trade center, and no other
point can meet all the requirements
of such metropolis. The mining
industry must from its very nature
be concentrated at one point.
Base ores must be mixed to be
economically reduced. To secure
the varieties Of ores requisite for
extensive reduction works it is
generally necessary to ship thou.

ocean. These fluxing mixtures
can be brought to Lewiston from
the mountains which are drained
by the rivers which converge a

in the United States that can b.
supplied with such a variety o
ores by such short and easy haul
as can Lewiston when her projected

With a portage at The Dalles
Lewiston will be in position to
command share of the advantages
of terminal rates which the rail-
roads are compelled to give Port
land on account Of deep water
transportation. The freight rates
from eastern points now are the
rates from the east to Portland and
back to Lewiston. Lewiston can
command a modified terminal rate

Steunenberg and Sinclair are in
Washington but their. permit
system is still in working order.
Permits to labor are taken from
men every day in the C9ur
d Alenes. What is the limit OF
Idaho's oligarchy of a mans right
to earn a living can be taken from
him or withheld from him without
any form of trial. This is an eX-
ample of tyranny never equaled IN
any other civilized government.
The only excuse that can be
offered for this political abuse is
that Steunenberg wants to go to
the United Srates senate and Sin
clair wants to be governor OF
Idaho. If these laborers, who are
political enemies, can be starved
out Of the state their votes will
not be counted next November.

Ter silver resolution who row vote

Garter Clark

Not one man who voted tor gold
in 1895 voted for silver in 1900,
So there's an end of silverism
All there is to do now is to carry
out the corpse and iumigate the
premises. When Bard of Califor-
MIA gets to Washington, there will
be another vote for gold. Silver
will never again hold up its head
in the senate as it has done~for
twenty years past, hold up tariff
bills, raise a club TO strike down
struggling India, browbe at timid
presidents and send Wildmans to
diplomatic posts. The senate Of

it now and feel that as to his recti
tude and sanity the burden o.

Experiments have demonstrated
that wheat fed to either hogs or
cattle this winter has netted over
90 cents a bushel. The meat mar
ket seems to be on a substantial
basis. The farmers of one com
munity cannot influence the price
of beef or pork. The cattle mark ct
especially is strong, with mate
rial decrease of stock that cannot
be regained for at least ten years
The farmer could safely lay hi.

production of his crop.

The old-fogy notion was tina q track
snouId be three or four inches deep to
be safe. The new way is to skim the
top lightly with a short-toothed ma
chine. with the result that, in dry, warm
weather, the going is light and springy,
enabling first-class horses to run faster
and sustain a high rate Of speed over
greater distances than their predeces-
sors. To argue that records made by
Ten Brock. Tristan, Salvador, Fashion
Geraldine, Banquet, Clifford, Maid
Marian and other flyers of earlier days
can not be beaten simply because they
are records of horses Of renowned MEM
ory, would be to say that the breed of
American is impossible Of improvement.
II such were sound reasoning all the
money, labor n time spent by breeders
IL the scientific crossing Of choice thor
Ioughbred strains has been wasted, and
men who have devoted their time and
money to the improvement of horses,

utility of electricity, evolve new and
better locomotives and steamships, and
multiply the benefits of the science Of
medicine. would have no encouragement
to keep trying. Unimportant and trivial

It was a wonderful performance for the

yet equalled or beaten the time Is con-
elusive evidence of its superiority. But
now comes Cresceus and after the show
ing ade IN his race this early in the
season 1T Is not too much to expect that
a mile in 2:05 or better Is certainly
within his reach. Cresceus closed the
season of 1899 with a record Of 2:O7 IA.
He was fOaled in 1894 and was bred by
his present owner and trainer, Geo. II.
Ketcham of Toledo, Ohio. a gentleman
who was engaged in driving and train
ing trotters for the purpose of restoring
lost health. Cresceus is a chestnut
horse by Robert McGregor, and his dam
Mabel by Mambrino Howard Is also the
dam of Nightingale 2:10 1-2. His second
dam Is by Allie West 2:25, a son Of AL
mOnt. Up to date the only trotter that
has shown speed enough to warrant the
prediction hat he stands a chance Of
defeating Cresceus his year is The Alb

week in 2:O5 1-2, but there are few who
think that in a three in five race this
son of Chimes could defeate the bull dog
