The independence Copper Mines.

The company desires to place
the facts before the investing pub.
lie and is anxious to show them,
that an opportunity is here afford
ed for a safe investment Of their
money in a gold and copper pro-
perty Of great merit. This op-
%portunity should not be allowed to
pass while the shares are selling at
a reasonable price, for in a very
short time the company expects to
ship ore to the smelter and when
such begins, the stock will natural
ly be advanced to a figure CON-
mensurate with it's real value.
The directors are now offering
treasury stock only at a very low
price to be sold entirely for the
benefit Of the company property
and judiciously used by the
trustees solely for the purpose Of
further developing the mine.
Aprospective fortune is in store
for all the stockholders who may
be fortunate enough to hold a
block Of shares in this company.
A small investment in the Inde-
pendence copper mines property
is certainly your opportunity.
Remember that Leroy stock,
which now sells for $56 per share
in London, once had hard sale at 3
cents per share in Spokane and we
have the same kind of ore as Lee

CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.

CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.
The Chinese exclusion law will
expire next spring and its re-en-
actment will be opposed by some
who favored the measure at the
time it became a law, especially
on the Pacific coast.
The law was a product of the
Kearny crusade which was SO en-.
ergetic as to excite the whole
country and has, on the whole
been of advantage to the country
which is not benefited by cheal
labor. Coolie immigration parti.
cularly is a curse against which
the nation should set it's face like
a flint.
AS might be expected, the op
position on the coast to the re.
enactment Of the law will come
from employers who have hac
trouble with the labor unions
They want Mongolian help substi
tuted for white help because The
former is not only cheaper bu
more s~ervile, but it is not likely
that the gates Of this country vii
ever again be thrown open t
Coolie immigration.

BEATS THEM ALL.

Take the average for a number
of years and it will be found that
for regularity in crop production
no state in the Union beats North
Dakota. It leads them all. (,
Occasionally there is a year
when in some part of the state
there is a partial failure of the
crop, due to drouth, excessive
rains, or some other cause, but it
is seldom that the state as a whole
does not report at least a moderate
yield.
This year, judging from present
indications, the record, taking
wheat and flax together, will be
broken. Wheat may not be a
bumper crop, as some have antici-
pated it would, but the yield Of
wheat and flax together will be
something enormous.
Then that North Dakota as ar
agricultural state is more favored
than any other, young or old, il
proved by the fact that here farm
ers increase in wealth most rapid
ly. In no other state do they &C
quire so large a COMPETENCY in 81
short a time.

ARE we to have an American India in

less is the state Of affairs that fathers
sell their daughters to keep them from

the country is fourishing are the Office
holders, representatives OF that class Of
politicians into which Governor Allen
has fallen-the lowest Of all the islands
Inhabitants. This is truly sad com
mentary on our boosted civilization and
profuse promises to better the condition
OF our subjects. The people worse of
under American liberty than when under
Spanish rule? The island was siezed
under the impulse Of cOmmeIcialisn and
for no other purpose than to be looted.
No matter how high or lofty are the
claims made TO the contrary, cold facts
cannot be concealed and the truth is
gradually becoming known in respect to
this American India. where our subjects
are being starved, and parents forced 10
sell their daughters for few crumbs TO
keep death from the door.

THERE seems to be a division OF opinion
regarding the sal ny Of county com mis-.
sioners, some claiming that the salary
OF an officer cannot be changed during
the term for which the officer is elected
and serving at the time law is passed
providing for the change. This question
has been raised by the Law classifying
counties and fixing the salaries OF county
commissioners at 500, $500 and $500
respectively in fret, second and third
class counties. The constitution OF the
state provides that the salaries Of gov
ernor, secretary Of state, state auditor,
state treasurer, attorney general, and
superintendent Of public instruction can
not be raiEed or lowered during their
term OF office. But there is no proyis-
ion affecting other officers, either state
or county. consequently the county COM
inissioners viii draw their salary under
the law passed at the last legislature.
kooienai county is placed in the first
class, and our commissioners will receive
500 per year.

TIE report from Boise, published in

stating that the Sanburn cabinets and
eurios had been offered for $3.50 is abso.
lutely false in every particular. The
only foundation for it is in a telegram
sent from this place to the governor say
ing that Sanburn's outfit had been sold
Tor $3.50 and could be bought by he state
Tor $500 or less. The governor replied
that the state would pay $500 for the col
lection. The governor was simply mis-
informed and made tool Of, a. the col
lection Is still owned by Mr.. Sanbnrn
was never offered for any sum less than
- 1000, and has always been valued at
$1,000, therefore the state is getting the
collection at great bargain for the

men and scientists will testify.

LEGISLATIVE EVILS.

One OF the greatest evils OF u Legislative
session IN this, or any other, state is the
result OF trading -the cold and unblush
irg barteriug OF one vote for another
without taking into consideration the
merits OF n measure that it is proposed
90 enact into law. Men are sent to q
state legislature who have pet hobby
TO push through; they begin to talk il
among the members from the FIRST day
oil the session and invariably wind up
the conversation by asking what bill or
law their listener wishes passed. An
answer to the question gives the trader
his cue. Ii the victim shows his hand
lie is Immediately made acquainted With
the fact that he can have 50 many votes
for his bill IL he viii give his support TO
the measure OF his new formed friend.
This process is repeated with varying
success, and ii the manipulation is shrewd
enough, he will manage to get his bill
through before the bills OF his virtims
get out OF the committee. lie generally
manages 10 get on the most important
committees where his influence is use,l
10 prevent an early report on the
measures OF those who have been caught
in his drag net. lie trades his one vote
for rs many votes as there are dupes to
Ike caught by his willy methods. This
legislator seldom. ii ever, uses his con-
science. Then there is the man who
listens, in a measure, to the dictates OF
ronscIence. bnt is willing to enter into
combination 10 pass Il number OF bills
without due regard for their merits. He
Is more numerous than the first named,
and may be man OF high moral char
acter in all other walks OF lie, yet his
eagerness to pass pet measure draws
him into the combination and his law
goes through with lot Of others that
cucumber the Statute books Of the state.
These methods are responsible for most
Of the evils OF legislation. The conserV-
Atiye, matter of fact man, who believes
that every las should pass upon its mer-
its, is oflen-tOo oiten-in the minority.
lie will record his vote for, or against a
bill, because he believes it good or bad.
lie is conscientious, and meritorious
Law which he proposes may fail because
he is not in the combination. Perhaps
he is serving his first term as legisla-
tor; if so, he gains an experience that
usually lessons his respect for law and
makes more strong his conviction that
legislative bodies are machines through
which promiscuous grist is ground
without the fine discriminating boiling
Goth Of pare and deliberate thought
which separates the fine flour from the
bran and shorts. Legislative evils will
exist so long as legislative bodies con-
vene, but may BE- l,ssened by the wise
selection OF men to make the laws.
