tion.
The business men Of Occur a.
Alene, last Monday evening, organ
lied the Merchants Credit Associa-
tion, Of Occur d'Alene, by electing
o, f. Barr president; Charles L.
Dittemors first vice president; NJ. M.
Taylor second vice president, Earl
Sanders secretary aud V. W. Sander
treasurer. A board of managers was
also selected, consisting Of 0. f.
Barr, V. w. Sander, John r. Taylor,
j. w. Wiggett aud f. B. Keller. The
association is to meet on the first and
third Mondays Of each month. The
object Of the association as stated in
the constitution, is as follows:
To foster and maintain perman-
ent social feeling among the merch
ants Of Occur d'lAene, to obliterate
distrust and inspire confidence among
the members Of the trade; to correct
excessive and unmercantiIs compe IL
ton; to remove by concert Of action
such evils aud customs as are against
good policy and sound business
principles, whether IL be cutting Of
prices, selling by wholesale houses at
retail, improper house to house ped
ding, the distribution and cOnsump-
tion of adulterated and unwholesome
goods, the use Of fictitious labels, the
use Of dishonest weights and measures
whatsoever the evil may be, to attain
the results which experience has
proved are not attainable by iudivi-
dual or divided effort; for these
reasons we hereby resolve ourselves
into an organization to be known as
the Merchants Credit Association, Of
Occur d'Aleue, Idaho"
The oragnization will have com
mittees on legislation, adulteratiou,
brands, on short weilh hts and
measures on wholesalers and manu-
facturers, on membership and prices.
The association will also cooperate
with the Ames Mercantile Agency in
the matter Of obtaining credit ratings
and extending credit to parties
desiring same.
Our local merchants in the past
have lost much money on bad
accounts and they have for some time
felt the necessity Of organizing so as
to ascertain the names Of all parties
who make the practice Of beating
their bills and thereby enable them
selves to guard against losses In the
future by refusing to extend credit TO
such persons.

STREET GRADING Is STOPPED.
Court Issues Temporary Restraining
Order Against Railway Company.

Court Issues Temporary Restraining
Order Against Railway Company.
Judge Morgan, in chambers Mon
day, granted a temporary injunction
against the Occur d'Alene & Spokane
Railway company and the city to
stop the grading OF Front street from
Third to Fifth and Fourth street
from the alley south to Front for the
purpose Of laying It's tracks along
Front street and securing what il
deems a proper grade for the running
Of trains. This is the freight extens-
ION of the road from the electric line
depot to the mill sites OF the William
Howard Land i Lumber company and
the Rutledge Timber company east of
the city. Work was begun on the
grading one day last week. r. r.
Mann owns the lot where his black.
smith shop stands on the corner OF
Fourth and Front streets and the
proposed cut will leave his building
about six feet above the street, which,
he claims, will make 1t practically
worthless for his business. He is the
PLAINTIFF in the action and it Ia
understood that W. B. Mcfarland,
James Graham, Capt. G. P. SorensOn
and Otto Nikolas are also interested,
as they are property owners along the
proposed cut on Front street. Upon
the showing made in the affidavits Of
X. r. Mann, Mrs. James Graham and
". B. Mcfarland, Judge Morgan
granted the temporary restraining
order which stopped worked Monday.
The railway company Is operating
under a franchise granted by the city
which gives it the right to make such
a grade on Front street as may be
necessary for its purpose. Chief
Engineer White says that the diff
Guilty Is due to the fact that his com.
pany ID compelled to cross the North
ern Pacific tracks at their grade on
Third street, which compels them to
make the cut along Front street to
the depth proposed, giving them a
three per cent grade.
The grades on Front street and on
Third street, which IL partly occu-
pied by the Northern Pacific. have
no. been established by the city
The Northern Pacific is seeking q
franchise for the use Of the street
along which its line passes aud it has
been suggested that the difficulty
may be adjusted by requiring the
Northern Pacific to raise its grade a
few feet, which will permit the other
company to make raise in its grade
sufficient to satisfy Mr. Mann and
other property owners who are inter
ested..
The case comes up for hearing be-
fore Judge Morgan at Rathdrum Tues
day at which time the court will pass
upon the complaint asking for per
manent injunction. Goode l.
Sanders are the attorneys for the
plaintiff.

JUSTICE FAMILY SHIPS
a had Lot Leave Town Under a Cloud
and in Fear Of the Law.

A bad Lot Leave Town Under a Cloud
and in Fear Of the Law.
The Justice family has been on
the boards this week for some cheap
notoriety. Richard Justice and
Margaret Delevin were arrested for
immoral conduct and taken before
Justice Chamberlain, who fined each
$50 and costs. The arrests we're
made Sunday and the case came TO
trial the following day Justice was
given an opportunity to go home aud
change his dress suit for working
clothes With a view to having him
work out his fine on the street and
he took advantage Of the opportunity
to skip out with the woman. His
whereabouts are unknown and the
authorities will not make much Of an
effort to capture him unless he re-
turns to the city. The woman is the
mother of three children and recently
abandoned her husband to live with
Justice. They had resided here for
a few weeks when arrested. They
we're stopping with Justices father,
W. t. Justice, who was arrested on
the charge Of running a disorderly
house. His trial was set for Tuesday.
He was released on his own Tecog-
nizance and did not miss the oppor-
tunity to shake the dust Of Occur d.
Alene from bis feet. The community
is we'll rid Of the outfit and ia not
likely to be bothered with them soon
again.

ON SOLID
FOUNDATION
AS shown BY State Commander sho-
walter in An Address to Local
Tent on Change of Rates.

At a meeting Of the local tent of the
knights of te AIaccabees Friday night
qlfte n large crowd OF Knights from
Clarksburg and wilsonburg Tents as
sembIed to hear State Commander G 9.
showalter explain the change OF insur-
lance rates recently made by the supreme
body of the X o. T. NJ. State Com
mander shownlter, being present at that
meeting and talsing part in its delihera-
tions. was able to point out and fully
explain every detail of the change. To
the thoughtful mind it was evident that
with a continuance of the extremely low
rates OF insurance upon which the
Knights OF the Maccabecs were insured
The order could not long endure. The
rates given were prhaPs lowr than that
Of any other fraternaI order and the
time must necessarily come when the
number of new members will not be
sufficient TO keep the average age of the
mem beers down TO its present low stand
ard. and When such time did arrive
either the rates of insurance would nee
czsariIv have to be raised very radically,
or assessments would have to be lHyed
which would be so high that it would
be impossible to, met them, or the order
would be financially embarrassed so
that the policies would be endangered
ana great many of them never paid,
Through the wisdom of the grand body
this problem which has embittcred men
and disrupted organizations, saddened
homes and impoverished widows and or
phanz, has been solved for all time for
the AIaccabces The rates nave been
raised so little per month That the
change is scarcely noticeable, or if the
policy holder so desires nc may continue
under the same rate as heretofore until
he reaches tn age Of fifty -fv years when
an additional rate is made. The change
is so slight individually yet with mem
bership OF about 100000 the total is
enormous and is sufficient to meet every
demand.
With. this change without a single ad-
ditiona1 member the order guarantees to
have sufficient funds TO meet every
policy TO the very last. The order now
stands secure and as solid rs the Rock
Of Gibraltar and the members of the
local tent have expfIssed themselves as
being well pleased with the change be-
ing mad now bfore it would become too
! radical

ASSAILING THE TARIFF.
| Democrats Seem Determined to Force
a Disturbing Issue.

Signs increase that the Democratic
leaders are determined to force the tariff
issue to the front in the presidential cam
paign. While Republicans will welcome
the discussion of this question, well
knowing that it is sure to add many
thousands of votes TO their majorities
they cannot but regret the selection of
the tariff as the main issue. because Of
the unfortunate influence it will have up
on the business interests of the country
So far this year the presidential cam
paign has not blocked business and fnan-
cial activity. Affairs proceed as usual.
In all lines of business there is a hope
fulness and confidence which is most en-
couraging. But if the country is to be
confronted with another visitation of tar
if revision agitation. with even a re-
mote chance of success in the election.
there is bound to be a great slump in
the industrial world and a corresponding
depression in all business interests.
1t is well remembered what happened
ten years ago, when, as President Roose-
welt puts it, "the last attempt was made
by means of lowering the tariff to pre-
vent some people from prospecting too
much. The attempt was entirely sue
cessful. The tariff law of that year was
among the causes which in that year
and for some time afterwards effectually
prevented anybody from prospecting too
much, and labor from prospecting at all.
Undoubtedly it would be possibl at the
present time to prevent any of the trusts
from remaining prosperous by the simple
expedient of making such sweeping
change in the tariff as to paralyze the
industries of the country"
The people of the United States will
not soon court again the destruction and
panic of 1898. Once is enough for one
generation. There will be a tremendous
vote against tariff legislation by the
Democrats.
The confidence of the country may
stand even throughout tariff revision
campaign, but it is risking a good deal
to raise that issue in the manner con
templated. They, however, have every
thing to gain and nothing to lose. They
have got to have something to stand
upon. and complete failure i'll every other
attack made upon the Republican posi-
ton has driven them upon the tariff as
standing outpost of Republicanism
which can always be assailed. when
nothing else affords a convenient target

on in Emergencies.
Theodore Roosevelt occupies a unique
position in the estimation of the Amcri-
can people. 1t is not that other men in
public life are not honest. or earnest or
lncorruptible-these qualities are not
rare. 1t is that Mr.. Roosevelt combines
them in an unusual way. He is possess
ed Of great physical vitality and mental
energy; he has of his own taste and his
own motion entered into various occu-
pations that have put him in touch and
sympathy with all classes Of men, high
and low. When he was ranchman he
made the cowboys his friends so that
when he became a soldier they clamored
to be Of his regiment He became Police
Commissioner in New York not for "the
money there was in it, as was the Gus
tom in New York. but to see that certain
abuses We're remedied. They were rem
edled in spite of the opposition of other
members of the board. He became As
<lstant Secretary Of the Navy in order
to carry out certain plans of naval pro,
-ress. He enlisted in the Spanish war
from patriotic motives and made a rec
ord. He was elected Governor of New
York on account of his public services
and was nominated for Vice President
against his own wishes for the same
reason. In all these positions and as
President Of the United States he has
done his duty fearlessly and honestly.
The people have learned to regard him
as man of action; as man who does
things, and who can be relied on in an
emergency. In common phrase he is
regarded as man who will do to tie
to-"
Against such a record as this the neg

nothing. As a man Of executive ability
