The Mighty West.

The greatness of the west with
its golden opportunities and bright
future are happily described by
General Nelson A. Miles, who
says:
1T was my good fortune to
witness the Transformation of the
mighty west. have viewed
much of it on horseback and have
traversed the zones now occupied
by the Canadian, the Great North
ern, the Northern Pacific, the Rio
Grande & Oregon Short Line, the
Uniou and Central Pacific, the
SAINT Fe route and the Southern
Pacific. / have seen the pioneer
and the home-builder supplant the
savage and the lawless. In my
recent journeys across the CONT
nent | was more than ever i'm
pressed with the underlying wis
dom and tranquil virility Of the
people. They do not want war;
they want peace. / have travelled
far in foreign lands and observed
the people of many countries. l
have had excellent opportunities
to know the people of my own
country and am grateful to say
that more intelligent, thoughtful,
patriotic people cannot be found on
the face of the globe than the peo-
pie of our western states and ter
ritories. There you find the true
American independence and enter
prise. An American citizen with
so or 160 acres of land is loyal to
democratic government, and he is
a very independent sovereign;
The rough, wild element has been
replaced by the mine and mill
owner, the herdsman and the
agriculturist.
While in thirty years the
transformation of the great west
has been marvellous, there is yet
ample room for millions who may
be seeking homes. There are
nearly as many people crowded into
the Philippine islands, an area not
as large as one of our western ter
ritories, as the number that are
now living in nearly one-half Of
he western portion of the United
States, while the state of Texas
alone, richly stored with the pro-
ducts that have made the country
rich and prosperous, could accom-
modate all the people of the United
States and ten millions more with
out being so much crowded as
some OF the eastern states are
now.
" We are not meddlesome,
warning nation. When war comes
the war spirit will respond, and
the brave, patriotic American
soldiers will make it effective.
But the spirit of peace should be
cultivated rather than the demon
of carnage. There is no necessity
to stir the passions of Americans
in order to be sure that they will
be patriotic. They love and APP
preciate their liberties and will
maintain and defend them against
all enemies"

With the crying need of better
roads in this county, it is surpris-
ing that the lack of interest mani
tested by the people all over the
country in the selection of road SUI
pervisors. The law provides that
on the first Monday in December
of each year elections shall be held
in the several road districts to
choose supervisors, yet from the re-
turns already made it is safe to say
that out of nearly forty districts in
Idaho county, not to exceed a
dozen districts held elections.
This leaves most districts with
out supervisors, and it re-
mains with the county commits
sioners to appoint them or leave
the places vacant. No country
needs better roads more than this,
but no material Improvement can
be made unless the people them
selves take an active interest in the
work. 1t does no good to abuse
the county commissioners because
they will not appropriate money in
a district where the citizens of the
district will not even elect super
visor. The best men in each dis
trict should be chosen, and while
the pay will hardly justify him in
accepting the position, it is neces
sary that some personal sacrifice
be made before good results can bt
accomplished. With good men az
supervisors and an honest expendi
ture of money appropriated the
roads will be improved, but they
never will be if we all try to shift
the responsibility on to others, and
then sit back and kick at the com
missioners because the roads ar,
impossible.

The Idaho State Woolgrower' s
Association which met at Boise
last week expressed themselves as
strongly opposed to the forest re-
serve. The same feeling is shared
by every other industry that is in
any way dependent upon these
great unoccupied domains and
about the only people who are en-.
tirely satisfied with the conditions
are the fellows who draw good sal
aries for making out reports anc

ROTTEN MAIL SERVICE.

I With the beginning of bad
weather complaints begin to pour
in from all sections off central
Idaho regarding the non-arrival
of mails over star routes. A letter
written from Thunder Mountain
on the oath of November states that
tno mail had been received in that
camp since November 3, and then
;only letter mail. Sometime ago
it was reported that. the contractor
ION that route had been granted
permission by the department to
,refuse all fourth class matter.
Conditions on other star routes are
Just about as unsatisfactory. An
taverage of over Is hours is re-
quired from the time mail reaches
Sites before it gets to Grangeville
distance of Is miles, and, to
make IL worse the outgoing mail
leaves here each day before the in
coming mail arrives and is distrib-
uted, thus causing loss OF an
entire day before mail can be an
swered. Petitions have been
signed and sent to the department
calling attention to these con-
ditions and praying for better SER
vice but like personal protests they
have been turned down without
even reply. 1t looks very much
as if the star route contractors
have more influence with the de.
partment than the people whom
they are supposed to serve.

Troubles of the Dispensary Con
stables in Charleston.

Special to The State.
Charleston, Feb. 5.-Dispen-
sary Constable George Caul6eld
will be prosecuted by Sottile
Brothers, whose horse he shot
last night in endeavoring to stop
the wagon which was supposed to
he carrying liquor. The warrant
for the constable was to have been
issued today, but Sottlle Brothers
deferred doing so until tomorrow.
They have engaged an attorney
and will prosecute the case vigor-
ously. No liquor was found ia
the wagon when the animal was
brought down. Caulfeld fred
two shots, one of which narrowly
missed man who was coming up
the street. The promiscuous
snootlng Is generally condemned.
The constables on the other hand
say that they are forced to oper-
ate under great difficulty on ac-
count Of the illicit dealers driving
fast horses and making easy es
capes, and they plead this in ius-
tl6cation for Caul6eld using his
weapon when the driver of the
wagon refused to hold up the
horse when ordered. Chief HOWE
says that he will investigate the
case. Caulfield was not arrested.
He put the pistol back in his
pocket and walked away after the
shooting.

DiSpensary Bills.
Senator Hood Introduces Three
Of Importance.

Columbia Record.
Senator Hood has introduced
three bills in the senate having
reference to the dispeusary. None
Of them have yet been acted on by
the dispeusary committee.
One bill is to appoint a com
mittee to investigate the manage.
ment of the dispensary and pro
vides for five members, three Of
the house and two of senate. The
committee is to hold sessions dur
ing the year, is to seal it's report
TO the governor who shall trans
NIT it to the next general assem-
bly,.
Another bill provides that the
mem mbership of the board snail be
seven members instead of three.
They shall give a bond of So,
900 and their terms shall be for
two years. They shall receive
the same per diem as members OF
the Legislature and not more than
for a hundred days.
The third bill strikes out the
proviso in the present law which
reads: "Provided, further tha,
nothing herein contained shall
prevent said directors of the dis.
pensary from making with dis
tillers in this state contracts for
the purchase of liquors manufac-
tured by them within this state.
In explanation of the amend.
ment Senator Hood says he IN.
derstands that dispensary direc.
tors construe this proviso as mean,
ing that the Richlnnd distilIery is
excepted from the general provis-
ions of the law whereby contracts
for purchases must be made to
the lowest responsible bidder and
that the Richland company gets a
higher price for its goods than it
otherwise would. Senator Hood
calls attention in this connection
10 an article recently written by
Mr.. j. B. Douthit in which he
claimed that the Richland distil-
lery got higher price for is goods
than other distiiiers.
