The nature of Mir. Baer's reply is not known, but in answer to question the railroad president said
 T know nothing about q committee" !" He declined to make any further state ment.
 President Pary said invitations to meet the committee had been sent to all of the presidents who met President Roose- welt last week and favorable replies had been received from them. He would not. however, divulge their names. During the afternoon President Pary, in an interview, said:
 "The strike has reached what we now believe is the crisis. We were in hopes of meeting the operators today, but ow- ing to the short notice they received they were unable to be present"

NO ANSWER FROM MITCHELL.

 Secretary Root was in conference with the President for more than two hours tonight and 1t is thought the coal situa- tion received a large amount of atten- tion. President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia university, New York, also called. but declined to indicate the ob- ject of his visit.
 Has Bear Resigned7
 Philadelphia, October S.-A rumor was current here tonight that George F. Baer, president of the Philadelphia and Read ing railway, had submitted his resigna- tion to the board of directors. Inquiry at MT. Baer's residence here elcited the in- formation fthat he had retired for the night, leaving strict instructions that he was not to be disturbed. Two members of the board of directors. however, emphat- ically denied the report The Reading directors met today to consider the an- nual report of the company, and it was stated that no other business was dis- cuSSeQ.
 The impression prevails that United States Senators Quay and Penrose arg still endeavoring to settle the strike. The two senators went to New York late this afternoon, but declined to state the ob- ject of their visit.
 Cincinnati Has Unique Scheme.
 Cincinnati, October S.-Temporary re- lief from the pressure of the coal scarci- ty in Cincinnati is in sight in a novel way. Eight tow boats at Poiht Pleasant, at the mouth of the Kanawana river are ready to start between midnight and daylight tonight with one million bushels of coal. The rise in the Ohio is to be augmented by throwing down all the dams in the Kanawaha. This is un- derstood, will produce a sufficient depth of water to bring the barges to this city. where they ought to arrive by Eatur- day.

THE advantages Of an electric
railway between this place and
Spokane to both the town and the
fertile valley through which it
would pass, are so apparent to the
average citizen that much space
need not be taken up in extensive
discussion of them. The history
of electric lines running through a
country rich in agricultural and
horticultural resources, with a ter
minal in a city like Spokane, IS
that they are not only successful
from a business point OF view and
as an investment, but are the means
of building up a prosperous and in
telligent community Of coutented
people who earn a comfortable liy-
ing from a few acres Of we'll titled
ground. Business and professional
men of the city also seek the freedom
and healthful surroundings Of a
country home as a result Of the
building of such lines. In this re-
spect Ceur d. Alene will become a
favorite residence spot. Experience
has also shown that the smaller
town gains in the way OF business,
rather than loses, by being brought
into closer touch with the city. II
people can buy as cheaply at home
they patronize the home merchant
and the small percentage Of trade
that goes to the city is more than
made up by increased population
and a corresponding increase in
business.

THERE is no one who cannot see
that it will be OF advantage to
Idaho to have members of congress
in political accord with the presi-
dent at this time when this irriga-
ton legislation is being put into
operation. Idaho Statesman
Is it possible that Pres dent
Roosevelt is to inject his PARTISAN
ship into the irrigation question. Ii
he prostitutes his high Office to such
a purpose he is unfit to fill it. The
fact is that the president cares
nothing about the politics Of a
senator when it comes TO matters
of general public interest, such as
irrigation legislation. The States
man Is attempting to gain few
votes for the republican ticket by
means of false representation
and is willing to make the presl-
dent appear unfair and untrue to
the interests Of the west for the
benefit of its ticket, Such rot
counts for nothing with the iutelli-
gent class of voters we have in
Idaho.

THE hard coal strike in Penn
sylvania has ended under an agree
ment to arbitrate and the president
has named a board Of six prominent
men to settle the dispute. The
strike became one Of national i'm
portance because it affected the
whole population Of the eastern
states and much hardship was in
store for the people Of that section
if it continued into cold weather.
The coal operators were very OBJ
durate and after the first conference
submitted some very impudent let
tiers to the president, telling him
that it was his duty to send troops
into the coal regions 10 suppress
the strikers. Their action strength
ened the cause ofthe striking miners
and aroused a just indignation
throughout the country against
their arbitrary methods. Their
position became untenable and re-
suited in a proposition to submit
the matter to a board Of arbitrators
composed of prominent men in diff
ferent walks of life President
Mitchell, on behalf of the miners,
accepted and the strike IS ended.
The result is a great victory for
arbitration and it is probable that
most of the future differences be-
tween employers and employed will

COUNTY GOVERNMENT.


We once more wish to call the
readers attention to Mark Hanna's
oft repeated saying that we should
'1et well enough alone" To no
part of the democratic administra
ton will this apply more forcibly
than right here in Kootenai county.
In 1896 the county government
passed out of the control of the re-
publican party. At that time the
democrats found, as a heritage of
republican rule, a large floating
debt, roads and bridges were needed
in all parts of the county, taxes were
at the highest notch, $40 on 500
exclusive Of special taxes, and there
was no cash on hand that could be
expended for public Improvements.
County warrants were selling at a
discount. In six years the demo-
Gratis have wiped out the floating
debt and the county is practically
on a cash basis; warrants are at
par, and have been for four years,
many miles of new roads have been
constructed, bridges erected and
other public Improvements made
for the benefit of the people. Taxes
have been reduced from $40 to
S2.7o. All of this is due to the
economical and business admins
tration Of the democrats, and the
republicans do not deny the facts.
They do claim, and truthfully, that
the assessed valuation has increased
in a ratio equal to the decrease in
the tax levy; but their argument is
not good for the reason that with
the increased valuation has come
increased expenses for public pur
poses. 1t is the great amount Of
public Improvements that have
been made in the shape of road:
and bridges and actual reduc
ton in taxes in the face of in
creased population and an evei
increasing demand for the expendi.
ture of money that commends the
democratic administration to the
voters of this county. For these
reasons our republican friend;
should follow the advice of theil
recognized leader and let wei
enough alone.

SOME men sometimes imagine
that they are smarter than the peo-
pie. This is very often true with
country newspaper publishers who
go into 4 community and establish
a socalled independent paper for
the purpose of catching subscribers
from the members of all political
parties and usually wind up after
a few months by tumbling into the
party that offers the biggest valu-
able consideration for the paper ;
support. Show us socalled in
dependent paper and in nine cases
out of ten we will show YOU a man
whose opinions and principles are
for sale, or who is 4 moral coward.

THE demand for houses still ex-
ceeds the supply, People are kept
out of town because they can not
secure a place to live in. Under
these conditions there are oppor-
tunities for men of means to make
profitable investments by building
cottages to rent. Comfortable
homes of from four to eight rooms
are in demand and money invested
in buildings of this class will bring
q good interest.
