As evidence of the truthfulness
of Mark Hanna's assertion that
there are no bad trusts it would be
we'll to note that since the begin
ming of the coal strike the Stand
ard Oil company has advanced the
price of oil 3 cents a gallon to job
bers, and at the same time declares
q quarterly dividend Of 10 per cent.
This same company paid a 5 per
cent dividend in September, 10 per
cent in June and 90 per cent in
March, making a total of 45 per
cent for the year 1902. Capital in
competitive business is satisfied
with 8 or 6 per cent annually, and
many good investments pay even
less. Such trusts may be good
trusts, but it will take more than
a republican politician to make the
people see it in that way for any
length of time.

We wish to say to everybody who
is either directly or indirectly in
terested in the proposed new county
that we of Clearwater and vicinity
are first, last and all the time OPP
posed to being cut off from Idaho
county and added to the proposed
new county. AS we understand
it we will not only have to bear
the burden of setting up the new
county for business, but we will be
compelled to bear our proportion
OF the indebtedness OF the other
counties, thereby creating debt
that will, with proper manage
ment, take a century to liquidate.
Clearwater is securing her share
of prosperity. The merchants re-
port a good trade, and the roads
being frozen makes them fine for
the heavy loads of freight and min
ing machinery which are going

A newspaper gives the following
truth to business men: "MOre
towns die from the want of conf
donce on the part of business men
and lack of public spirit than from
rivalry of neighboring towns or ad-
verse surroundings. When man
in search of a location finds town
where everybody is brimful of hope
and enthusiasm and is hard at work
to build up the town he soon be-
comes imbued with the same spirit,
and as a result he drives down his
stakes and goes to work"

Farmers in the Lowe country

Idaho, and nearly all of them are
engaged in this industry. They
claim that it is more profitable to
drive their wheat to the scales done

to haul it. Eighty-three head
were brought in Tuesday from the
Lowe country by the following
named persons: J. P. Brewing Is,
George Kilmer %, Fred Plann-
