always the case in a year Of phenomen.
ally abundant crops. Secretary CoDur"
reminds the farmers that there has new
err been season Of unusual prWiuctioh
and low prices for corn which 5as not
been followed in the near future by u
year Of comparative scarcity ana cor
respondlngly higher prices: and there
Is no reason to believe that the present
one will prove an exception to this hitl'
erto unbroken rule. His advice to the
farmers Is, therefore, that they should
market no more Of their corn than IS
necessary to meet their expenses. lie
truthfully says that they would rightly
have considered themselves favored
and prosperous with yield 1OO,WW,OoO
bushels less than that which they now
have. II they were to hold this extra
1OO. 900 bushels In substantial. rat
proof cribs on the farms for year OF
two. as they could very comfortably do,
1t would not only relieve the downward
tendency In prices caused ny the pres
ent glut In the market, but would help
to steady and confirm the price OF the
remainder. Moreover. when the lean
years come. and prices advance, tae
farmers, and not the spectators. VIII
be masters Of the situation, anu Will
reap the profits. The suggestion Is EN-
inently sensible. TO adopt 1t Is merely
to use that prudence and business 81,
gacity by which men in other occupa'
tons achieve commercial success. II
needs no argument to show that the
man who will make money when corn
advances will be the man who has the
corn. Why should not that man be the
farmer who raised 1t?

Wholesale Cannibalism In the Congo
Free state.
New York, Jan. ga special to the
Times from Nashville, Tenn, says: The
Southern Presbyterian board of mis-.
sions in this city received letters today
from Rev. l.. G. Vass, and Rev. II. r.
Hawkins, missionaries II the church
stationed ut Luebe, Congo Free State,
Africa, giving accounts Of the burning
of IA villages and the killing of 30 or
more natives by state troops. They
report that some of the victims were
eaten by cannibals, and that the bodies
of all who were slain were mutilated.
their heads having been cut off.
Mr.. Vass was formerly of Newbern.
n. c., and has been engaged in mis-
sion work at Luebe since February IL.
1899. Mr.. Hawkins was formerly at
Vicksburg, Miss. Mr.. Vass states that
tidinys of raiding by the Zappo Zaps in
the Bena Kamba country having
reached them, and the work OF the mis-.
sionaries being threatened, the Rev.
MIR. Sheppard was sent to make an in
yestiyation. lie went to the Zappo
Zaps' camp and found that II villages
had been destroyed by fire and plumb
cred. lie saw ~ bodies lying around
the camp. from three bodies the flesh
had been carved and eaten. The chief
said that 80 or 30 had been killed and
five persons eaten by his people.
MIR. Sheppard saw 8 right hands cut
off and frying over slow fire in order
to be afterward taken back to the state
officers. Sixty women prisoners were
confined in pen, and 16 had already
been sent away prisoners. 1t is said
the raid was ordered because the people
could not pay the exorbitant tribute
demanded by the state. The mission
aries say that they reported the matter
to the proper officials, and demanded
the withdrawal of the troops. and that
the chief instituted a counter prosecu-
ton on account of the charges made.
The missionaries further say the Zappo
Zaps are tribe kept by the state for
its protection. They are sent out to
collect rubber, ivory. slaves and goats
as tribute from the people, and can
then plumber, burn and kill for their
own amusement and gain. The mis-
sionaries say they are collecting evil
dence about the massacre, and will
send it to Bona and to Europe. Mr..
Vass says:
"The whole country is pillaged and
not village left standing. The people
are in the bush. Tonight in radius
of about IS miles there are possibly
$4,000 people sleeping in the bush, un-
sheltered and weary, in the midst of
rainy season. The state is q terror
to every One.n

ExecutOrs' Zig Fees.


Chicago, Jan. 8.-Robert r. Lincoln
and Norman b. Ream, executors of the
estate of George NJ. Pullman, were
today allotted rs compensation for
their services the sum of 1925, 900.
The order was entered by Judge Bat
ten, in the probate court. This is said
to be the largest amount in fees ever
allowed executors of any estate handled
by the probate court here.
Another order was made, fixing the
Widows award at $4,000. The final
accounting of the executors of the Pull
man estate is expected to be made next
week. 1t is said that the estate, which
was listed at about S,O00,0 900 when
the will was probated, will now figure
up to nearly $4,000, 900.
To Send More Soldiers t" Cape Nome..
Washington, Jan. Sat the cabinet
meeting today, it was definitely decid-
ed to send additional troops to Alaska
in the spring. The points to which
they will be sent have not been deter
mined upon, except Cape Nome, where
it is estimated there will be 10000
people as soon as navigation opens.
This place is now without government
of any kind, and some sort of a force
will be necessary to protect the COM
munity against lawbreakers in the mad
rush of people in the spring.

Inter Ocean. He promptly de-
serted his party and joined the sill
yer boilers. The Duluth district
had been democratic, and Mr.
Towne tried to keep his seat as
fusion candidate He failed in
1896 and was beaten again in 1898.
He calls himself silver republic
can, but that party has ceased to
exist. 1t now consists of Petit
grew, Dubois, Towne, about p
men in Colorado and smaller con.
tingents in the other silver states.
The greatest majority of those
who left the republican party on
the silver Issue, but declined 20
join the populists, see that the cur
rency question is settled, and are
back in the republican ranks. Sen
ator Teller has not formally re-
turned to the reservation, but Col
orado republicans have forgiven
him, as those of Massachusetts,
have forgiven Mr.. Hoar's anti
expansion ecceutricities. Even A.
j. Warner, the veteran silver agi-
tator of Ohio, advises the democ-
racy to drop 10 to I. But the per.
tinacy with which Mr.. Bryan
clings to silver is shown by his
choice Of Mr.. Towne, who repre-
sents nothing in politics but free
silver, and has no party behind
him.

A Political Outlaw

One campaign issue has been
launched. The Sioux Falls con-
vention last week condemned Steu.
nenbergism The Sioux Falls con-
vention named the fusion candi
dates for the coming presidential
election, and the condemnation of
Steunenberg made party issue.
In this state a week ago Stcu-
nenbergism was above old line
democracy, populism and fusion,
free silver, referendum and all other
common place reforms. Presto
change! The permit system is pro
nounced political crime by the
convention. Steunenbergism is
crushed at one blow. Those who
thought the end justified the means
have at last opened their eyes to
the violation of Il great principle
of civil government. Within a day
the man who had said he was the
head of the Idaho reform forces
a few days before found himself in
the slough of despond and despair.
A wall went up for Steunenberg-
ism, but it had not even a respon-
sive echo; only contortions and
sobs from the governors appoint
ees in the Occur d Alenes and his
paid claquers in other quarters.
Who will say now occasion in
the Occur d Alenes justified the
permit system? 1t would be as
sound law to say an emergency
would justify the unlawful destruc-
ton of property as to say an emer-
gency justified the unlawful i'm
prisonment of innocent men. The
man who justifies the permit sys-
tenn and the bull pen in the Occur
d'Alenes is just as much an an
archist as the man who justifies the
blowing up of the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mill by aggrieved work
ingmen. S.eunenbergism is an.
archy as was that act of the dyna-
miters. The official anarchist is
now political outlaw as the dyn-
amiters who escaped from the bull
pen are.

A Great Mining Camp.

Only a great mining camp will
survive reverse like the one Wis
tied upon Buffalo Hump a year
ago and yet retain the confidence
OF the public. Buffalo Hump may
have been doomed at one time, but
the camp was deprecated by
year Of delayed work at the in
stance of spectators. 1t is going
to the front rank of western min.
ing camps just now very rapidly.
There is every reason to believe
Buffalo Hump and the district en-
bracing the belt between Salmon
and Clearwater rivers will be the
greatest quartz district of equal
area i'll the United States within
the next ten years. There is ore
enough in sight to supply all the
stamp mills and smelling furnaces
from California to Alaska, includ
ing Montana, for year.
Lewiston business men have
done very little to promote the
mining interests of the interior.
The Buffalo Hump affords legiti.
mate field for investment. The in.
terests of the camp might now be
influenced by moderate outlay on
the part of our wealthy citizens.
1t is certain that the city will be
materially benefited by intimate
business relations. The millions
that will be expended in the camp
for the purchase OF property and
the working of the mines would
greatly benefit Lewiston if an effort
were made to control the business
OF that great camp. IF the liberal
policy of Spokane could be emit,
lated here our institutions would
be rejuvenated by the impulse of
mining money in the near future.

Harmony and Unity.

brief account OF the Lewiston Re-
publican convention. 1t is much
more brief than it should be, but
in the affairs of small newspaper
time and space have their limita-
tons. We shall from time TO time
endeavor to impress upon readers
the many important features which
for the present are necessarily
omitted. At this moment it is ill.,
teresting to inquire, what is the
situation in the Republican party
as disclosed by the facts of the
convention A consideration of
first importance which must have
impressed the most casual observer
was the unanimous expression of
the delegates that Idaho is today
Republican State. Only three coun-
ties were regarded as extremely
doubtful aud only two as hopeless.
The next fact of striking signif-
canoe was the complete and smooth
blending of Republicans and Silver
Republicans, made conspicuous by
the large number Of ex Silver Re.
publican delegates. We call espe.
cial attention to the fact that a ma
Jority of such delegates were not
prominent in political affairs and
apparently had no political aspira-
tons of personal kind. Thy
were there simply because they
were Republicans and because they
were anxious to p omote Republi.
can principles.
Again. there was complete unan.
unity in the endorsement of Presi.
dent Mckinley and the National
Republican administrations. We
do not a.lude to the endorsement
expressed in formal resolution, but
the endorsement of personal ex-
pressions of unqualified approval.
There was not in the convention
delegate who expressed the slight
est dissatisfaction or had TO offer n
word of condemnation. Another
fact disclosed was the strength and
popularity of Senator Shoup. The
writer was astonished to observe so
little of what, in political par
lance, would be called anti Shoup
sentiment, In fact, it was such a
small, weak voice that in the thun-
ders of applause it was completely
hushed. Thus it becomes clearly
apparent that the Republicans are
thoroughly in accord upon every
proposition which at the present
time contronts them. There is a
total absence of those internal
strites and contentious which make
SO torcibly for party discontinue
and defeat. Every Republican
from highest to lowest has but one
aim, one desire, one hope and de-
termination, namely, to rescue
Idaho from Democracy and all its
attendant ills Caldwell Tribuu
