Uses OF Salt.

A grain of salt seems trivial
thing. Yet to it human beings
often owe their lives. Few of
the natural products of the earth
play a greater part in the every
day life than salt, and yet most
men and women think of it as a
very simple thing. People would
very soon become i'll if deprived
of it. 1t exists in all parts Of
the body, and the human blood
without its PARTICLES is lifeless.
Many times when death seemed
near the vitality has been revived
and sustained by the pumping OF
salted water into the veins.
No food is adequately seasoned
without the proverbial pinch of
salt. A person requires from
one. fourth to one half ounce of
salt daily. In the olden times
the Dutch used tn punish Grim
inals by diet of unsalted food.
Their physical sufferings were
great and usually ended in death
Not alone must salt be plenti-
fully added to all vegetable foods.
but meats and fowl would not be
palatable without it. The staff
of life would not be sweet to the
palate if the snowy white parti-
cles were left out of the dough,
and in pastry, too, salt is an es-
sential, and poor, indeed is the
cook who has not the salt box
ever handy.
For sore throats no gargle is
better than salt and water. 1t
makes rough irons smooth, helps
to pack ice and, as like cures
like, it also melts it when scat
tered upon an uncomfortable slip
perry porch and door step. Mix
ed with vinegar it is an excellent
polish, and it is used in the water
with which the teeth are cleaned.
Its effects is felt in beauty and

EXPECTED REACTION IN
COTTON FUTURES.
Close i'm New York Sensational
Made so by Local SppculatOr
Who Wanted July Contracts.

ing in the cotton market was
higher than last nights close
with May and July above the
best point Of yesterday. Trading
was active and excited. The
initial advance was on better
cables than had been looked for
aud reports that cotton was sell
Ing ali through the interior last
night~at 153 cents for middling.
1t became evident, however, soon
after the opening that enormous
profit taking was going on and
the prices were depressed several
points from the best, after which
they were rallied by the firmnese
In New Orleans and aggressive
bull support.
The rally did not hold and
shortly after noon there was
a rapid decline of from 55 to
IS points.
The break was reported to be
due to selling by two large COM
mission houses with out town
connections, which held long cot
ton for southern and western in
terests. 1t was said that sales
were made because of failure of
correspondence to forward neces
sary margins. The decline at.
tracted fresh demand from
scattered sources and with the
weaker long interests shaken
out the market rallied several
points on bull support.
The close was sensational.
just at the last moment local
speeulator went into the ring

sight, running that month up to

AT NEW ORLEANS.
New Orleans Jan. 23.-The
long expected reaction in the
cotton market occurred today and
country longs went wild in their
efforts to liquidate. Their offer.
ings swamped the market for
while and prices went down from
45 to SO points. The prominent
bulls were heavy buyers at the
decline and evon at the lowest
buying offers of few hundred
bales would send the market up
10 points.
The alarm was sounded yester-
day when brokers commented to
ask $40 bale margin.
1t is generally conceded that
the false reports concerning the
situation in the far east, spread
about last night were respon-
sible for the liquidation by the
weak long interest. All futures
remained bullish.
The movement was light and
the weekly "In sight" figures
were smaller than expected by
the most enthusiastic bulls.

Pioneer Visits WeiSer.

w. A. Slfers, one of Idaho's sturdy
old pioneers and q resident of Soldier,
in the Camas Prairie country, is a
visitor in the city. Mr.. Sifers If en-
route to his home from visit with
his brother in Spokane whom he had
not seen in 40 years, Mr.. Sifers
stopped off here to visit with old
friends, among whom are A. b.
Anderson, J. G. Bray and several
others, and is enjoying his visit i'm
mensely. He and A. B. Anderson
mined together in early days and he
greatly regrets that he can not visit
with his old partner, owing to Mr.
Anderson's absence at Hot Lakes.
Mr.. Sifers came to Idaho IN 1863 and
passed through this valley when there
were no other inhabitants but the
willy redskins. He has splendid
farm and stock ranch on Camas
Prairie and is now able to enjoy life
in his declining years, but is yet hale
and hearty. He returned about q
month ago from visit to st. Louis
and went on through to Spokane
His trip to St. Louis was the frs

Sifers is one of those big hearted anc
whole-souled pioneers whom it is
pleasure to meet and to listen tt
their tales of thrilling adventures o.

but it should be doubly SO here in
this Thunder Mountain country, as
the natural conditions are such that
they could not possibly be improved
on. We hear the Homestake mine,
in the Black Hills, constantly re-
ferred to as a great property, and
doubtless it fully deserves the term.
But the mines on Thunder Mountain
have ore that is twice as rich, and
which can be mined and treated even
more cheaply, while in the Big Creek
section we have still better mining

all the way from $40 to $40 ton,

Business Men, Attention.

There will be public meeting to-
night at the sample rooms Of the
Vendome hotel for the purpose OF
arranging to secure the meeting of
the Democratic State Convention in
Weiser. Hotel proprietors, restaur-
anters, merchants, and in fact every
body, are urged to be present.
Weiser can secure the meeting OF
this great political event, and all
that is needed is united effort on
the part of all, regardless of political
beliefs. When it is known that
nearly 300 prominent citizens from
all over the state will attend this
convention, you can readily see what
great drawing card it will be for
Weiser. The meeting tonight Is for
the purpose of taking steps TO proper
iy care for and entertain this august
body, but TO do this requires united
action. Let US take care OF our
visitors in such manner that when

in its vast silence; but one who is
familiar with It's mineral wealth and
showing cannot help thinking how
different will be the scene in another

echoing from one hillside to another,
of hundreds of dropping stamps, and
this welcome rumble will extend

preparations, but we are now nearing
the point where results will begin to
appear, and they will probably be
sensational In the extreme. A
change is coming, very big change,
but it will not be as sudden and
spectacular as some people imagine.
First, two or three milling plants
will be set up. of from ten to forty
stamps each, and they will be
operated by steam, with wood for
fuel. Then they will be enlarged,
more stamps added, and then some
cyanide plants will be built, and
while these improvements and en-
largements are taking place, other
new plants will be starting on a small
scale, and they, too, will gradually
be enlarged. Then will come the
change in power, with water wheels
and electric motors substituted fol
steam, and after while the starting

Defines His Position.

In his address here Monday night
III. w. Lockhart insinuated that
Frank Gooding would, if elected,
advocate the repeal of the two-mlle
limit law. Mr.. Lockhart certainly
knows, If he has read the daily pa
pers, that Mr.. Gooding has defined
his position on that law in every
speech that he has made during this
campaign. For the benefit of the
EXAMINER readers we quote Mr..
Goodlng's views on this question as
given IN a speech at Grangeville.
He said:
1.-THE only democrat now occupying
state Office in Idaho had declared the
law unconstitutional. Ny position as
state chairman of The republican party
in the campaign Of Two years ago, and
also the fact that am sheep owner,
probably prevented the defeat of Judge
Ailshie to membership on the supreme
bench. Some sheep men are making a
fight against Judge Ailshie. because
they felt that he was friendly to the
two-lnile limit law. This fight. how.
ever, was not made by the wool growers
association. BY virtue of my political
position and being sheep man, in.
duced the opposition to desist from the
fight against the Judge. The Legislative
nominees of both parties are pledged to
sustain this law and not vote to destro.

upon his chosen lines. "For the

be the slogan of a united opposition
