During the interval before the
opening of the session about forty
business men Of the town gathered
in the store building OF the Kamiah

decided to visit the council and de-
mand that the city as far as possible
suppress gambling. This delegation
in body filed into the council room
and we're informed by Mayor Swift
that the council awaited their pleas

the citizens meeting addressed the
council, calling attention to the pre-
vious mass meeting. ard asking, as
the spokesman Of ,ha; meeting. that
the city authorities do all in their
power to suppress gambling. Mr..
Parker addressed the citizens and
members Of the council a; some
length, calling attention to the fact
tha; the city in no way in issuing
these licenses recognized these evils
and that as a further precaution the
city in the future will refuse to accep;
money from such source, in other
words. ,ha; iae $50 per quaner re-
ccived by the city from the soft
drink joints be abolished and that
no revenue be derived from this
source in the future. This motion
was seconded by Foresman and up
on Mayor Swift putting the question
the vote was unanimous by the men,
bers present. This motion also
carried with il clause that the
marshal be instructed to suppress
all gambling under the state Law
within the city limits Of Nezperce.
Remarks were later made by Judge
S,earns and Postmaster Hardwick.
Mr.. Hardwick stated to the council
that the action just taken would per-
haps save trouble later as he and
others had abou, made up their
minds to take this matter into their
own hands. Mr.. Stearns inquired
of Mr.. Hardwick il his proceedings
would be revolutionary or otherwise.
Mr.. Hardwick's reply was an inti-
nation that If peaceable means
could not be employed revolutionary
proceedings would follow. Mr..
Miller remarked, in answer to Mr..
Hardwick's reply that he considered
his talk a mere bluff. tha, there were
always fellows who sat around, and
after an issue had been made and
met. would blow about what they
would have done ii matters had not
been adjusted by the other fellow
Mr.. Miller also remarked that the
council had been notified on other
occasions that they would be visited
by the citizens and after waiting
for more than an hour had been
forced to adjourn without such vis-
itasion. The council then ad-
journed until the next regular meet
ing night in Jnnuary.

BOLD DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
Thicf Breaks Into khetsone's store at
Noon Hour and Secures Cash

The town was thrown into a great
state OF excitement last Saturday by
the announcement that the Whet-
stone cigar store had been broken
into in Mr.. Whets;one's absence
and the till robbed of $50. The
thief or thieves had entered the
building a; the rear, breaking
through the pasteboard covering a
broken window pane. From this
this point the thief entered the store
room and from there the main build
ing. The till was broken open and
two sacks containing silver dollars
and small coin taken. There was
no trace or clue to the guilty party
except foot prints on the hocr.
These foot prints were measured
and found TO be those of a man wear
ing a number seven shoe. Several
theories have been advanced as to
who the thief is but up to the pres
ent time there is no clue to warrant
a prosecution. Later in the day Mr..
John Lauby found cup under the
stairway in the building containing
three dollars in silver coin. one be-
ing recognized by Mr.. Milestone

Outlook in New York.

The contest in New York in Noyem- Der will relate almost wholly to the merits of two New York men for the presidency. It Is a race between Parker and Roosevelt, both well known in their native state, and the nomination of this man or that man for governor or other state office will not materially alter the situation. The success of either presidential cahdi- date will carry the governorship and all other state officers along.
 It has been made to appear that the nomination of Elihu Root by the repub- licans for governor would help out the sinking fortunes of MT. Roosevelt in New York. But it would not MT. Root is a corporation lawyer, and the corporations he serves are trusts, and objectionable trusts, too. He Is the lawyer of the Northern Securities con- pany, for example. He has also offend ed the negro voters of the state, LOGO in number. MT. Root is not, therefore, a man who can help anybody before the people, and he has taken himself out of the race Who the republicans will nominate has not been deter mined. They have no available man of great strength or popularity.
 The democratic nomination may go to anyone of half a dozen popular men ito Mcclellan, Jerome, Chanler, Stanchfield, Coler or Goodyear. The last named is Dig lumberman of Buff falo. Mir Stanchfield of Elmira ran against Governor Odell four years ago. MT. Coer ran against Governor Odell two years ago, and was defeat ed by small plurality. MT. Jerome is the well known district attorney of New York city. MT. Chanler is an ex- congressman of New York city, and Mayor Mcclellan completes the list. The democrats have plenty of good men, and they do not fear the nomina- tion of any one the republicans can put in the race.
 Judge Parker's popularity will de- termine the result. All men in New York have confidence in and trust him, and he and MT. Roosevelt must fight it out practically unaided by state or local tickets.

Good for Davis.

From the Macon Telegraph.
 Hon. Hery G. Davis of West Virginia. candidate for vice president on the dem ocratic ticket, was making a speech on Wednesday to the democratic convention in his state when man in the audience fired something at him about the white mans party" The Venerable candidate promptly replied that "the democratic party was the white mans party"
 Then the convention went into a long continued demonstration of approval.
 It seems that the tail-end of the ticket has the courage of his convictions as well as the head Good for Uncle Henry.
 The democratic party cannot and will not take any position as opposed to the natural rights of aliens among us, but it does and will contend that this is a white mans country and government, and that white men shall control it.
 With the design of polling the solid negro vote Tn the doubtful states. the republicans, at the instance and follow ing the example of Theodore Roosevelt. have injected the race issue into the cam paign this year more acutely than we have had it in years. Sink or swim, rise or fall the democrats will accept the gauge of battle thus forced upon them. Henry G. Davis has put them on notice.

WoNDELFUL RADIUM CLOCK.
Claimed That 1t Will Run For 3o,ooo
 Years.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
 A radium clock that will keep time in- definitely, has been constructed by liar rison Martindale. of England. The prin- ciple of this apparatus is simplicity itself. the registration of time being made In two minute beats, while its function is to ex- hibit the dissipation of negatively charg- ed alpha beta rays of radium.
 The clock, according to the Scientific American. comprises a small tube in which is placed a minute quantity of ra- dium supported in an exhausted glass vessel by a quartz rod.
 To the lower end of this wonderful lit- tie tube is colored violet by the action of the radium, an electroscope formed of two long leaves or strips of silver is att tached. A charge of electricity in which there are no beta rays is transmitted through the activity of the radum into the leaves and the latter thereby ex- pand until they touch the sides of the vessel, connected to earth by wires. which constantly conduct the electric charge and the leaves fall together
 This very simple operation is repeated ineessently every two minutes until the radium is exhausted, which in this in- stance 1t is computed will occupy thirty thousand years.

Passinu of the Piano.

The metropolitan papers tell us the parlor-furniture piano is disappearing, and that the girl pianist without musi- cal ambition or ear or taste is also becoming less numerous. The piano will survive in the hands of experts, but the household piano Is fated to disappear altogether, except in a few exceptional cases. Where it is found in the future will also be found a pianist of excellence. Modern piano playing is beyond amateur work, and the mechanical instrument accom- plishes what the amateur cannot.
 There is economy of energy as well as of money and nerve strength in the new movement. No longer is the young girl who is not naturally in- clined to piano harmonies compelled to spend weary and unfruitful hours at that instrument, and the wayfarer is no longer compelled to listen to one piano where formerly he heard in the course of walk dozen. It is money saved. It is strength saved to the young girl. It is friction saved to the nerves of the forced listener. It is a saving all round, and the wonder IS the household piano held out as long as it did.
 The violin is the one instrument that time cannot abolish. It is the king of musical instruments, alike in cabin and palace It was used in the twelfth century, and it is as popular in the twentieth as it was in the twelfth, and 1t will be as popular no doubt eight more centuries to come. It is not passing, but the household piano certainly is, and no one seems to regret it's going.

Iron Production This Year.

A bulletin Issued by the American iron and steel association puts the production of pig iron in this country in the first six months of the present calendar year at s,173,43s tons, and 1t Is believed the years total will be about sixteen million tons, as against 18,O09, ,252 tons produced last year.
 These figures are satisfactory. In the general reduction in the volume of trade some reduction in iron pro duction from that of the boom years was inevitable, and the figures pre- sented are reasonably satisfactory They keep us far in advance of Great Britain and Germany, the other two great iron producing nations of the world, and as long as we head the list we need not complain.
 Production in this district is hold ing up well, anu the years work will not fall more than ten per cent behind the production of 1903. The produc- tion of this district in 1908 was 1,561,- 39S tons, and the production of the present year will be fully 1,4O0,OOO tons, and fl the strike be speedily set tied and the new furnaces are blown in, the production may go to 1,5oo,O00 tons. If 1t does, the district should be congratulated on it's enterprise in a period of dull trade.
 Six southern states produce pig iron Alabama, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky. The production of the six states in 1903 was 3,149,824 tons. Alabama's production IS almost half of the entire southern production. The southern furnaces Wall produce this year less than three million tons, and this dis trict can be trusted to supply one-half of the product.

states are coming up to the standard he set.
 If the Lusk bill is to be repassed at a future session, it should be amend. ed in the respect of converting special terms of the court for the trial of lynchers. The power to call a special term should be lodged in the governor of the state. In that way an uniform policy can be adopted, and the govern or of the state is the best judge as to when a special term is needed. He is the states high sheriff, and he is not subject to local influences.
 Special terms for the trial of lynch CTS may not always convict, but when 1ynchers know they must face the ex- pense and doubts of a trial they will be apt to look for rustic amusement in some other direction. The quick trial of criminals guilty of crimes against women is also often desirable, and altogether it is best to vest in the alert governor of the state the power to call a special term. There is no danger that the power will be abused, none whatever, and it is not possible to suppress lynching unless the power in question be granted.

Drift Toward Parker.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
 The New York Herald as result of a canvass it has been making reports "a drift toward Parker on the part of men who in 1900 supported Mckinley, or who in 1896 voted for Palmer and Buck ner. While this tendency is not heavy, 1t is sufficiently marked to indicate that adherents of the sound money faction are returning to the ranks of the party" It would not require "heavy tendency" of this kind to turn the scale in several states which voted for Mo- Kinley. That there Is such a tendency is already apparent without the aid of a newspaper canvass; nor can a news paper canvass do more than reveal the direction of such a current without measuring or even approxmating its volume or force.

Lynchlnq and Special Terms.

Governor Terrell of Georgia ordered
 out militia company last week, and
 prevented lynching at Statesboro. At Danville, in Virginia, the authori- ties have procured the indictment and punishment of several citizens who attempted to take a negro from the fail, and Governor Hayward of South Larolina is conducting an inquiry for the detection of the lynchers who re- gently held a frolic at Eutawville. These efforts show that the desire to put down lynching is widespread Gov ,rnor Jelks led the way, and the other
