Brief Bits Of Biography Con-
corning Them.

corning Them.
In describing the resources and
advantages of Idaho county an ar
ticle would not be complete with
out some mention of the officers
whose management goes long way
toward advancing or retarding the
progress of county. In this
respect Idaho county is indeed for
tunate and no county in our
great state has it's affairs more
conscientiously or ably directed.
Most Of our officers have long been
residents of the state and gave val
liable assistance in the early devel-
opment of our resources, thus es-
pecially fitting themselves for the
responsible positions they now
hold.
EDGAR q. STEELE,
Judge Of the judicial district COM
posed of Idaho, Nez Perez and La
tab counties. was born in Spencer,
Indiana, in 1855. He received his
education in the Indiana State
University and afterwards com
pleted the study of law in the In
diana State Law School. He prac-
tised law in his native state until
1889 when he was appointed Law
Examiner of the general land office
and removed to Washington, ID.
G. In 1892 he came to Idaho, To-
eating at Moscow, where he formed
partnership with Willis Sweet for
the practice of his profession. In
1898 he left large and lucrative
practice in obeyance to the call OF
the people who demanded that he
be made judge. His work has
fully justified the choice of his con-
stituents, and while he presides
with a firm presence, he is also
courteous to the bar, yet giving
due consideration to all matters
submitted.

MIR, Major. the famous cement man. OF
New York. explains some very interesting
facts abont Majors Cement.
The mu!titudes who use this standard ar
ticle know that it is many hundred per
cent, better than other cemcnts for which
do not know why. The simple reason is
that Mr.. Major uses the best materials
ever discovered and other manufacturers
do not Use them, because they are too ex-
pensive and do not allow large profits. Mr..
Major tells us that one of The elements of
his cement costs 80 Is Il pound, and an
other costs 1896 II gallon, while II large
glue upon the market are nothing more
than sixteen-cent glue, dissolved in water
or citric acid. and in some cases, altered
slightly in color and odor 10y The addition
of cheap and useless materials.
MaiOr's cement rctailS at fifteen and
twcnty-hvo cents bottle, and when Il
dealer tries TO sci! Il substitute You can de-
pend upon i, hat his only object is to make
larger profit.
Th" profit on Majors cement is Us much
ms any dealer ought to make on any cement
And hi! is doubly true in view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bene-
mt Of Mr. Majors advertising, which now
amounts to over 5000 u month, throughout
the country. Established in 1876.
