The eastern financial papers are
very much worried because our ex-
purts are decreasing and our i'm
ports are increasing, and they pre-
dict an unfavorable balance of trade
against the United States for the
next few years. And yet we were
told that the balance of trade Of
$500, 900, 900 in our favor two years
ago was owing to the wise legisla-
tion enacted by the republican
party, and we were advised to "let
we'll enough alone" II republican
management is responsible for the
good times, why cannot it keep
them good? They have sup rene
control Of both houses Of congress
and the president, and not a demo-
crat is holding a federal position
anywhere in the country. Mark
Hanna will have to invent another

Thunder Mountain may be a
fake, but long before Thunder
Mountain was ever heard OF the
mines Of Elk City, Dixie, Florencf,
Warren, Newsome and the Salmon
and Clearwater rivers were turning
out their millions Of gold dust an
nually. These proven camps are
all taking on a new lease Of life.
The recent discoveries in the Eth
City district are among the most
important aud valuable strikes ever
made in the northwest. 1t is mat
ter for general congratulation all
along the line when successful OPP
orators like Patrick Clark, Ben
Klngsbury and others come here
from Spokane to take hold Of really
meritorious propositions, which
have been worked in a desultory
way for years and years. The lack
of practical mining men has been
the sole difficulty with the mining
interests of Idaho county, and
when these kind of people TAX,
hold we may expect to see the
wheels of progress started in the
right direction.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.

Saturday next, August 8, be-
tween the hours Of 2 p. m. and 7
p. M. is the time during which the
democratic primaries will be held
for the election Of delegates to the
democratic county convention on
August 16. With the representa-
ton given the newly organized pre-
cincts there should be 100 delegates
at this convention, and with any
thing like a full attendance it
should make the most distinctively
representative gathering Of Idaho
county democracy ever held in this
county, and its nominees should
therefore receive the unanimous
support of democrats all over the
county. It is not probable that
large convention can be controlled
by any one individual candidate fol
office, and it is therefore safe to as
sumo in advance that the nominees
will be distinctively representative
of the democratic party Of thi'
county as the delegates themselves

An important enactment of the
last congress was the law allowing
ing adult Indians who acquired
lands through heirship by the death
Of the original allottees to sell such
lands. The holdings Of minor heirs
can also be sold through guardian
ship procedure approved by the
secretary of the interior. The law
is of much Importance to this sec
ton, as it will result in a large
area OF the lands on the Nez Perez
reservation passing into the hands
Of white ownership and thus be-
coming permanently improved, as
well as adding to the assessable
wealth OF the county and state.
Under the old law all Indian lands
on the reservations were held in
trust by the government and could
not be sold for period Of 25 years
from the date Of acquisition by the
allottees. The new law says. in
part: "The adult heirs Of deceased
Indians, to whom trust or other
patent containing restriction upon
alienation has been or shall be
issued for lands allotted to him,
may sell and convey the lands in
herited from such decedent, but in
case Of minor heirs their interests
shall be sold only by guardian
duly appointed by the proper court,
made upon petition fled by the
guardian, but all such conveyances
shall be subject to the approval OF
the secretary Of the interior, and
when SO approved shall convey a
full title to the purchaser, the SAINT
as ii final patent, without restric.
ton upon alienation, had been
issued to the allottee."

BAIIEY,s POINT WELL TAKEN.

We feel certain that the country
very generally agrees with Sena
Bailey of Texas. that If the Presid--
insists upon sending a special ambass-
ador to London to represent this gov
eminent at the coronation of King
Edward, the ambassador ought to pay
his own expenses. There is absolutely
no good reason why the people should
pay them. The ambassador gets all
of the glory and therefore ought TO
foot the bin. The people don't want to
be represented by a special ambass-
ador. They think the one they have
there-their regular ambassador-is all
the occasion calls, for.
If we send a special ambassador to
the coronation of King Edward we
shall be expected to send an ambassa
dor to the coronation of every other
king or emperor in Europe, and per
haps in other parts of the world. Let
once a precedent be established, and
there will be any number of affairs
that seem to call for special am
bassadors.
If England sent a special representa-
tive to witness the inauguration of our
President there would be good reason
for sending one to witness the corona
ton of her king. but as a matter of
fact such a thing has never been
thought Of Our self respect therefore
should prevent us from being in such
hot haste to put in an appearance at
every extraordinary function of royal
ty. We have become too big and too
great to admit in the slightest degree
that either kings or emperors are en-
titled to consideration which is not
freely accorded to the head of our
government.

RIVER AND HARBOR BILL IN DAN
GER

Alarm is beginning to be felt by the
friends of the River and Harbor bill
at the prospect of the defeat of that
measure. Savannah is deeply interest
ed in the bill. We do not mean that
there is doubt that 1t will not be pass
ed by this Congress, but that there is
danger that 1t will not be passed at
this session. When it went to the
Senate it carried more than 100000, 900
in cash appropriations and authorized
contracts. That amount was so large
that it called out a great deal of I'M
favorable comment. The Senate, in
stead of accepting the bill Just as it
was, tackled on nearly $10,0O0,000 of ad-
ditional appropriations. In fact, 1t
tackled on so much that the opinion Is
being expressed that it is overloaded.
The bill is in the hands of a confer
ence committee and the committee
doesn't agree. 1t is said that there
will not be another meeting of the
committee for a week or more. In the
meantime the opponents of the bill are
| doing what they can to defeat it.
1t seems that river and harbor con-
tractors are Directing strongly to one
of its provisions 1t is that all bonds
of contractors must be guaranteed by
surety companies. That means of
course that contractors will have to
pay their sureties. They don't like
that a bit, but if that provision OF the
bill stands it is probable the govern
ment will get better work from the
contractors.
1t has been a long time since there
were appropriations for rivers and
harbors and if the pending bill should
fail this city would be a heavy loser.
