ago when democratic low prices had
soured and embittered them. They.
will not vote to throw away all theA
have gained under the present admiHl
istration and go into the desert again.
Lead is another important Idaho
product. Under Harrison the price
per hundred pounds ranged from s.. 20
to $3.50. When Cleveland was elected
in 1892 it fell to So. so. The price de-
clined to $500 in 1894 and So 80 in
1895. 1t was $3.12h when Mckinley
was inaugurated, and it has advanced
since then to "a. 20. The lead miners,
says Senator Shoup, cannot be rea-
soned out of the belief that an advance
in price, which meal so much to them,
should be credited to the republican
party.
Idaho cattle are worth on the aver
age $40 more a head than they were
when Mckinley was inaugurated.
Horses are worth from So to $40 more
than a year ago. The ranchmen are
assured earnestly by the democrats
that a republican administration had
nothing to do with their present pros
perity, but they refuse to be con-
WINGED, and they mean to hold fast to
an administration which they believe
has benefited them.
The sheep raisers, cattlemen, and
lead miners of Idaho are not alone in
this determination. There has been
a great change Of heart since 1896 in
the western states which gave Bryan
their votes then. The prosperity
which republican principles has given
them has converted them to saner poi
litical opinions.

PRosPERITY IN THE WEST.

Senator Shoup of Idaho believes his
state will go republican next fall,
though four years ago it was given
over to the evil spirits of populism and
free silyerism, says the Chicago Trib-
nne. He has faith in the cheering and
invigorating effects on the minds OF
the voters of the state of better prices
they are receiving for some of their
leading products. Hard times made
republicans populists. Good times are
bringing them back into the fold.
Sheep raising is n of the great in
dustries of Idaho. Under the Harri-
son administration sheep were worth
from 1925 to $3.50 per head. With
the election of Cleveland they began
to shrink in value until they got to be
worth only $1.75. They were so cheap
it did not pay to steal them. But
with the inauguration of Mckinley
they advanced in price As cents, for it
was known that the sheep were to
have a chance, which they could not
have with democrats in power, who
have no higher opinion Of those ami
mails than John Randolph had. In
1899 the average price was $2.3S,
January / last it was $3.50.
Idaho wool brought Is cents a
pound in 1892. During Cleveland's
second term it brought six cents. It
is selling now for from Is to % cents.
There are over 100000 sheep in the
state, producing several million pounds
OF wool yearly. It is not strange that
the sheep farmers with plethoric peck
cts should takea more genial and, con-
seauently, a more republican view Of
the situation than they did four years

AN INTERESTING DERATE

'En- VI AA3NN b1l11t H. 80
In the recent debate in congress,
wherein Senator McCumber of North
Dakota spoke for the retention of the
Philippines, and Senators Tillman and
Hoar piled him with Interruptions in
an endeavor to break down the force
of his argument, it is apparent from
the verbatim report of the proceedings
in the Congressional Record that SEN
ator McCumber held his own. SEN
ator H%ansbrough was in the chair at
the time of the debate as temporary
presiding officer of the senate, SO the
state of North Dakota was well repre-
sented in the course of the debate in
the senate. Senator Tillman's state
ment that ninety per cent of the people
of the south were not pleased at the
outcome of the war of the rebellion
brought forth indignant protests from
other southern senators, although
Senator Tillman persisted in his state
ment, although finally softening it a
little, when the full force of it was
brought home to him in the argument.
In closing his argument, Senator Nc
Cumber said:
I assert that the standard Of pa
triotism, of honor, of integrity, and
Justice is just as strong today as ever
in our history, and upon that founda-
ton of American character l believe I
can safely build my hopes for a glor-
ious outcome of every advanced step
in our national life, including our ter
ritorial expansion. I have a right,
therefore, to present these direct ques-
lions to the opponents Of our Philip
pine policy.
Have you pot faith in the honor Of
your conntry?: Do you believe that its
sovereignty over any people on earth
will be a detriment to the people?
Do you not believe that a better civil
ization will be developed in those
islands under American control than
under any other possible conditions?
Have you still faithjin the n Of
justice of the American people; and if
you have, can not you trust to the fu-
ture, trust your own people, your own
country, to do that which is right and
just and honorable by these people, as
a closer acquaintance with their needs
and conditions shall show proper?
Ii you lack this faith, If you believe
that we have degenerated to such a
degree that we cannot be trusted-if
that is your fear, then by that spirit
of sincerity which should govern ey-
cry argument, by the soul Of honesty
which should influence every reason,
you should tell the American people
of their sad divergence from the path
of political honor and rectitude, that
they may with retrospective view ap-
preciate the sudden abortion OF their
moral faculties. If you do not believe
this, if you do not lack faith in the
people. then trust them in this matter
as in all others.
II the time ever comes when right
Justice, interest, or humanity requires
that we should release d control. j

that which is absolute justice.

SOME PRAIRIE BREEzEs.

SOMEWHERE SHINES "a STAHH
Mists of the twilight creep,
Creep from the deeps afar,
And all of the children Of Nature sleep,
But somewhere shines a star.
Shades of the night tide flow,
Soothed the surge and swell,
Ofthe sullen day, but sweet and low
Tinkles an evening bell.
Up from the moorlands rise,
Shadows, and darkness streams,
But somewhere out of the misted skies
Brightly a beacon beams.
Eventide and dark,
Dirge of the day and knell,
But voices speak in the silence-hark!
Whispering: "All is Welt"
Mist of the twilight creeps
Out from the deeps afar,
Over thy life and Gladness sleeps.
But somewhere shines a star.
Shades of the night tide flow
Sorrow strikes a. knell,
But out of the twilight, sweet and low,
Tinkles an evening bell.
Up from thy Sorrows rise
Shadows, and darkness streams,
But somewhere out from the sullen
skies
Brightly a beacon CLEANS.
Eventide and dark,
Dirge of thy JOY and knell,
But voices speak in the silence-hark!
Whispering: "All is WE'LL"
Swift as the swallows flight
Joy to the mists afar,. #
But out of the depths of the dismal
night G r.
Somewhere shines a star.

Frank Dumass. who recently figured
in Police Court for carrying concealed
weapons and resisting an officer. and
was sent to the workhouse for thirteen
months, made his escape this morning
at 1870 o'clock. AS to how the pris-
oner gained his freedom could not be
learned. It is reported that one OF the
guards at the prison gave chase after
the fleeing man and fired his revolver.
However. none of the shots took ef-
feet and Dumass succeeded in getting
away. The Register telephoned to the
prison twice, and each time the official
responding to the call refused to give
out any information concerning the
case, which is significant 1t will be
remembered that Dumass was arrested
by Officer Holmes. At the time the
man produced revolver and stubborn
ly resisted the officer, but was finally
landed. The capture was considered
good one, for the reason that he was
thought to have been implicated In
robberies occurring previously in this
city and vicinity.

"A very heavy bombardment went

At 2 o'clock this afternoon an alarm
was sounded at Chieveley Camp and
all the troops turned out promptly and
advanced into the plain.
LONDON, January S.-A special dis
patch from Frere Camp, dated Satur-
day, January 9th, Z p. NJ, says:
cat 2 o'clock this afternoon the
whole of Gen. Clery's division marched
out of camp to attack Coler>5o. Gen.
Hildyards brigade was on the left and
Gen. Barton's OF the right, with cav
airy on the extreme right.
"The attack was slowly developed
and at 430 the British field guns adj
vanced on the center and commenced
Smelling the Boer positions on the fiat
land between Hlangwane hill and Fort
Wylie. About this time heavy thun-
der storm ragged over the enemy's po-
sition.
cat $50 our troops were still ad-
vancing and had reached a point very
near Colenso. The naval AT and field
guns were busily dropping shells into
the enemy's trenches along the river
and the forts Of the enemy had made
no reply"
The Daily Mail has the following,
dated January 9Th, at noon, from Frere
Camp:
cat o'clock this morning very
heavy firing began at Ladysmith. 1t
lasted fully four hours, and must have
meant either a sortie by the British
or determined attack on the garri-
son by the Beers. Our shells could be
seen falling on Umbulwhana hill. and
the enemy were replying.
Beside the cannon reports there
were sounds indicating smaller pieces
of artillery in action. The fighting
must have been at closer range than
has been the case up to now.
Our naval guns at Chieveley sent
their usual fire into the Boer trenches
there; but there has been no further
movement here"

sells, the commander of the Boer forces
beseiging Kimberley, and cousin of
President Steyn. Of the Orange Free
State, said in an interview in Chicago,
to-day:
Il expect to get back in time to
have plenty of fighting. I ann convinc-
ed the war will last at least another
year, and while the Beers probably will
be crushed, provided there is no for
eign Intervention. for the Beers will
fight to the last extremity.
Il think the present war might have
been avoided but for England's OPP
pressive demands. yet it would have
been merely postponement Of an in
evitable conflict. for the time would
have come when the Beers and Eng
lish would have battled for the suprem-
acy of South Africa The leading men
OF the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State have understood this fact for a
long time. but hoped that somehow
events would shape themselves so the
conflict would be indefinitely postponed.
The Jameson raid, however, proved it
was near at hand and they have been
straining every nerve 10 prepare for it.
Zone who has not personal know
ledge of the fact cannot understand the
bitter, undying hatred which the Beers
have for the English. After the Jane.
son raid. | met numbers of old men
who prayed they might not die until
they had first killed an Englishman in
battle, and the children have become
imIbued with the same sentiment. Such
people will not be conquered easily"

IRE ICE G||RGEl
AN ATTEMPT TO MOVE
LAST NIGHT.
ICE BLOCKED BY LOW WATER.
Hot a High Enough Stage to Pass
The Ice Over the Bars-Ice Hold
ing at BeIIaire, Martins Ferry
and East Liverpool.

The ice gorge in the front river made
an attempt to move out last night about
seven o'clock. The ice broke just I'M
der the suspension bridge and moved
down opening a space about to the foot
of the Island Although the wharf boat
was directly in the course Of the NOV
ing ice, the breast lines held. The
bow was grounded slightly.
The ice also moved from Union bridge
at Martins Ferry opening the river to
Eighth street. The gorge still holds
from the bridge to Sisteh Islands.
The slight moves were caused by the
Ice rotting from the rains and the slight
rise brought about by the water back
ing up. Had the river been higher
doubtless the whole gorge would have
gone, but it will take some water to
float the ice over the bars. The pros
pacts for a speedy resumption Of navi-
cation are very coed, as the last report
from above this morning showed a
