THE ATTITUDE OF NEZPERCE
Is Against County Division but Division 10
Inevitable will Fight for Unity for Nezperce

Inevitable will Fight for Unity for Nezpsrce
Prairie and Voice as to Boundaries.
w. G. Foresman reached the city today
enroute to Boise where he will remain
during the legislature as part Of the
lobby that will work for the interests of
Nezperce prairie If the county division
fight comes to an issue. 1.-The attitude
Of Nezperce people is being misunder-
STOOD" said Mr.. Foresman. 1--WE are not
in favor Of county division except it is
forced upon us by those who would seq
regate Nezperce prairie to create new
couty on the lines laid out in the Orofno
petition. voice the sentiments Of the
people of Nezperce prairie when say
that 80 out of every 100 of the citize ms
are in favor of retaining Nez Perce county
without division. They are wholely sat-
isfed with present conditions. But il
county division is inevitable Nezperce
wants a voice in the matter and the
present fight as it is being made by the
people of Nezperce prairie and the
country contiguous is made for that pur-
pose. First we want to defeat any county
division and failing in that we want to
be factor in determiag the boundary
lines Of the new county. Nezperce
prairie wants to remain unit either in
Nez Perce county or ou. of it. We want
no segregation of our territory and look
upon that as calamity.
We have united with Us OH this PROPOSE
ton the solid support of the prairie, to-
gether with the support of parts of Idaho
county and the support Of the eastern
portion Of Shoshone county. In the re-
gion about Pierce, Weippe and Frazer we
have secured over 500 signatures to our
petition. We are first against any di-
vision but failing to defeat that we are in
. position to say what the boundaries Of
the new county shall be-"
Mr.. Foresman reports that the rain
and snow fall during the winter have
been ample for the needs Of next season
and that the crop outlook is splendid. He
ventured the assertion that barley and
oats would divide the acreage more
equally with fax and wheat than during
the last few seasons. BARLEY has been
the best paying crop of the past season."
said Mr.. Foresman. "The Vollmer-
Clearwater Co. made great strike for
the farmers of Nezperce prairie when
they created market for the barley crop
by forcing eastern prices. Barley and
oats have both been good paying crops
this last season. Both have paid better
than fax and look to see an increased
acreage Of these cereals at the expense
Of the fax acreage for next season.

"Nezperce schools will reopen-after the

Mr. Roosevelt sees the danger, and
he is taking steps to offset every men
ace to Republican supremacy While
his coming tour is in no sense politi-
cal, his speeches will be eloquent pre-
sentatiOns of his attitude upon the tar
1n. reciprocity, trusts, Philippine
question, and labor. In effect. he will
bear the brunt of the campaign, and
by creating popular wave of en-
thusiaSm by his presence and frank ut
terances, he will save many doubtful
districts to the party. We approve of
his policy of taking the people into his
coincidence, and he is wise in putting
MS cabinet into the field to give ex-
pert testimony concerning the work
or their departments. particularly as
to foreign affairs, the army and the
plans of the encouragement Mr.
Roosevelt Isl thoroughly honest. and
has the courage to voice his convic-
nons offend whom they may. His
Arlington speech referring to Iynching
has endeared him to the colored neo-
pie, and they have implicit confidence
in his sincerity. Congress has
"tiunked" in all Negro measures late
ly, but the hope is high that if Mr.
Roosevelt is strengthened in that
body by the election of the right kind
OF men, the next few years will show
a decided improvement in our status
The colored American., 1902-08-16

The tariff declaration in Iowa, how
ever, is signI- -cant-coming from the
State that gives ua two members of
the Cabinet the Speaker of the House
and chairman of the Senate Commit
tee on Appropriations. 1t means that
the present trust-breeding tariff wall
must be lowered, that the people are
restless under the growing arrogance
of commercial combines, and are de-
termined to strike a more equitable
balance between the munificent re-
wards of capital and the meager earn
inSS of labor. The fierce strikes and
bread rlOta indicate that the masses
are in no humOr to be trified with,
and unless some remedy is proposed
whereby the poor mans dinner pail
can be reasonably well-filled, a revolt
may be looked for. Disaster may be
aVertcd by a little tariff pruning
here and there, so conducted that the
burden of taxation will fall upon those
most able to bear it, and who enjoy
the bulk of the fruits of protective
import rates.. The consumer pays
the tax, as all know, and the wage
earner's pittance is exhausted by the
prices arbitrarily fixed by trusts to
increase the profits of the monopoly
that conditions permit them to build
up and sustain. The remedy. should
be suggested and cOnSummated by the
Republicans. We want no wholesale
tariff legislation, to unsettle the busi-
ness interests of the country, and
bring on a repetition of the slump of
1898. The tariff is an elastic propos-
itiOn. and can be intelligent1y re-
vised to suit changed and changing
conditions without sacrificing a jot
or little of the principle of protection
to infant industries. Competition is
healthful for institutions that are
strong enough to stand alone. and the
thoughtful party managers realize
what splendid coup it would be to
knock the bottom out of the Democra-
cy'" campaign by agreeing to make cer-
tain reductions at once, and pleading
merely that such revision and reduc-
tion should be made by the friends of
the protective system-nOt by those
who would annibilate it altogether.
