Interest on Time Deposits.

After ten years Of prosperous
business the board Of directors Of
the Bank of Camas Prairie have
authorised the payment Of four per
cent. interest on time deposits.
A directors meeting held last
week when the president Mr.. F.
w. Kettenbach was here and upon
thorough examination VI the af-
fairs OF the bank il was found that
it's financial condition and stand
ing would fully warrant this
change Of policy, and in view of
the fact that banks generally
throughout the state are paying
interest ON this class of deposits it
was thought that this concession
was due the people Of Idaho county
in return for the liberal patronage
the bank has enjoyed.

WANT TO FORGET
THE MAINE
UNITED STATES WILL NOT RAISE
THE MAINE NOR PERMIT SPAIN
TO DO 1T.

The Cuban governments decision not
| to allow Spain the privilege of raising
the hulk of the sunken Maine in Ha-
| vana harbor is in accord with the de-
sire of the United States government,
whose position has been stated to Pres
ident Palma by Minister Squiers. Sc
far as Spain is concerned, American
| wishes may well be respected, But, at
the same time, the Washington admin
| istration assumes a curious attitude. 1t
has declined to raise the Maine and has
lately surrendered all claim to the
wreck in favor of the Cuban govern
ment, which is left with power to re-
move the vessel because it is an OBJ
struction to navigation. The course of
the United States, viewed in connection
with American objections to having
Spain take hold of the case points di-
rectly to the conclusion that our gov
rment prefers that no further inves-
tigation of the cause of the destruction
of the Maine shall ever be undertaken.
1t refuses itself to raise the hulk; and
1t vetoes the suggestion that Spain
raise it, although Spain's interest in
having the cause of the explosion de-
fnitely determined, If possible, by ac-
tual examination of the wreck, is Sec
ond only to our own. The Republican
has always believed that the Maine
was destroyed by an external force.
The apparent reluctance of the United
states government to permit further
investigation of the catastrophe Is in
comprehensive, unless one believes
that the government fears disclosures
that would damage our historical justi-
lication for going to war with Spain

Time and Money.-Si,lIness causes q
loss of both time and money. You lose
the time and have the expense Of med
ical attendance, entailing double loss.
This can be avoided by using some re-
liable remedy at the first stage of the
sickness. The purchase of a bottle OF
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy often proves a pro-
fitable investment, for, by it's use at
the first appearance of any unusual
looseness of the bowels, a severe attack
OF diarrhoea or dysentery may be
averted, that might otherwise compel
a weeks cessation from labor Every
household should have a bottle at
hand. 1t never fails and is pleasant to
take. Get it today. 1t may save a life.
