usual, the Missouri democr ats have
been the most obstructive in their

There never was time since Camas
Prairie was settled when there was more
encouragement for the farmer than there
- during the coming season. There will
BE- not less than $1,000 people in the sur
rounding mountains this summer. The
different ranges will be more closely pros
pected than ever before. This population
must be fed. The farmers of Camas
Prairie will have the first chance to sup
ply them with -four, grain. vegetables.
butter. beef and everything that can be
raised. Put in more wheat. oats, barley,
corn, beans. potatoes, oniops. cabbages
and every vegetable needed for table use.
Raise more chickens and more pork
Make more butter and cheese. 1t is al
ways an easy matter to do little more
than we have been doing. Determine
ton and go ahead will accomplish won.
dess. II you don't raise i: you wont have
1t to sell. II you don't plant you cannot
reap The farmer who fails to take adj
vantage which will he offered him this
season to raise produce aud supplies for
the ever.growing mountain trade would
sit down and see the gold dug out all
around him. For 100 miles to the east
and south is an immense mountain area
already comparatively settled and de-
pendent upon this community for its
necessaries OF life.
There is also the great probabability
that the coming spring will witness the
construction of two competing lines of
failroaid into the Camas Prairie country.
for which we have been waiting patiently
for many years. This construction will
employ several thousand laborers, al, of
whom must be fell. aud they can be
furnished from this section during con.
struction more cheaply than the stuff can
be imported. Let those 60 into the
mountains who choose, but the farmer
would better stay At home and work his
farm for all there 10 in it, for he has sure
money maker in his land. If he fools
away this year he may not have another
such chance for an indefinite period.
Old-timers often say they would like to
zee the "old Florence, Warren and Elk
City days" again. And yet there are
many people here now who had good
farms in those days. who failed to take
advantage Of the opportunities which
were then presented TO them, because
they faiaed to raise the produce from
their land and had nothing TO sell, and
consequently made little or no money.
There are plenty Of men here now who
will have NO more wisdom than their old
time predecessors. They will let the
golden opportunity 10 by. But the
energetic aud wide.awake farmer will
make more money this coming season
than be has made for the past Eve years.
The opportunity 10 right here for those
who care to take advantage Of it.-Free

The legislature has ended and
It IS timely 10 inquire into what
the net results are to Lewiston and
Nez Perez county. Outside of the
defeat Of the boom bill Lewiston
secured favorable sc'iou on all
legislation Of immediate concern
The normal school appropriation
was $50, 600 as against SI8. 900 for
last session. The needs Of the
school. will be we'll met by the new
appropri ,tion. II provides no,
only Tor its present maintenance
but allows for growth and develop
ment. Another item Of benefit to
Lewiston ard t.r. north country
generally is the location OF a su
preme court building and library
at lewiston. The appropriation
was $4,000. Lewiston gets a
splendid public building, and north
Idaho interests will be better served
In the matter Of court facilities.
The bill providing Lewiston with
q new charter is Of vital interest to
the growth aud development Of the
city. The old charter was ont of
touch with new conditions. The
new charter is constructed with the
idea Of facilitating enterprises Tor
the upbuilding Of the city. Lewis.
ton wilt not now be hampered by
charter restrictions. All OF these
weigh over and against the loss Of
the boom bill, which at It's worst
can on'yAie up the development Of
one Of our great industries.

giving visitors some idea Il what
real plantation life is. The plan.
tation is about thirty miles from
New Orleans, and the trip will be
made by boat. The Mississippi
River in March is usually at its
height, and some idea of the mag
niiicent leyee system and It's neces.
sites will be gained from this trip.
Two or three hours will. be spent
going over the plantation. and see
ing the workings of a sugar. house,
which converts the cane grown in
the field into the finest sugars found
in our markets. The old planta.
ton house and negro quarters, the
gardens, the live-oak trees and all
these features that lend so much to
Southern plantation life will be
unique experience to many of the
convention guests.
The National Association will
convene in New Orleans in response
to an invitation from the Progress
sive Union, the Era Club of Wo.
men and many prominent indivi-
duals.
A side tour to Mexico is being
planned for those who want to ex-
