Good Stock Exhibit.

Superintendent John T.. Smith of
the Spokane Interstate fair stock
department says there is every
prospect of as good an exhibition of
stock this year as there ever has
been in the past In fact it is
probable there will be more cattle,
more horses and better grades of
both this year than there were last
year and every one who attended
the fair last year will remember
that the stock department was very
fine. Already Mr.. Smith has re-
ceived definite assurances of the
coming of as many head of cattle
as were exhibited last year, and in
the list he has not counted any of
the stock from the Spokane breed
ers which will add considerably to
this number. Besides these there
will undoubtedly be other stock
taken to Spokane which has not
been exhibited there before and
which has not been reported.
The railroads will bring stock to
the fair for the usual rates and will
return it free of charge if it was ex-
hibited at the fair. If the stock is
travelling the circuit of fairs the
rates on the railroads will be ad-
justed so they will be satisfactory.

IT begins to look as though the
electric road through the Palouse
country is to be more than a mere
dream. A party composed OF
several promoters of the scheme re.
Gently passed through here on a
tour of inspection of the proposed
tines and were delighted with the
prospects. Those interested in the
project have secured a franchise
from the county commissioners I'M
der the conditions that the work is
to be under way within a year after
its granting. This line will be a
great help to the farmer in the
marketing of his produce and we
trust that our hopes will be real
lied.

OVER IS per cent. of the wheat
crop of the Palouse country is in
the sack. The weather has been
such that several machines in this
vicinity have made the run since
they started, a month ago, without
losing a days time. This, coupled
with the fact that the grain ripened
fully two weeks earlier than usual
this year, accounts for the advanced
stage of harvesting operations. The
yield has been average, or above,
and of quality to make any east
erner envy the Palouse farmer.

Cut and Thresh for 4Oc an Acre.

One of the best crops of the year
so far reported was harvested by
Fred Hungate on his farm, 10 miles
south of Pullman. Mr.. Hungate
had $50 acres of Red Russian wheat,
which averaged 48 bushels per acre.
He sold the crop for 68 cents per
bushel, which brought a gross re-
turn of $32.64 per acre, which is
about the cash value of the land.
Mr.. Hungate harvested his crop
with combined header and thresh-
er, and his experience will be of in
terest to all wheat growers in show
ing the economy of this method of
harvesting.
Mr.. Hungate says his cash outlay
for harvesting the crop was SI36. so
or an average of 81 per day for OPP
Grating the machine. He cut his
crop Ill 1872 days, an average of
about IS acres per day, which is not
up to the usual averageof these ma
chimes. The cash expense for cut
ting and threshing the crop was less
than 40 cents per acre. This does
not include the wages Of Mr.. Hun
gate and his teams, but is the ac-
tual cash expense paid for help etc,
independent OF his own work and
that of his teams.
Under the old method of harvest
ing it would have cost TO hire all
work done $3.50 per acre to head
the grain and six cents per bushel,
or sass to thresh the crop. Thus
the profits on this big yield of grain
are greatly increased, and Mr.. Hun
gate will probably make as much
clear profit from his crop as any

China than would have been oonsid
cred ten years ago possible for any
American president.
President Roosevelt has lived in
the west, has written much of the
west, he is OF and for the west.
The west should rally to his sup
port, both for what he has done and
what he will do for it in the future
And it should express its approval oi
him the more because his opponents
are making of these same western
qualities, which we 80 much admire,
the materials for attacks upon his
character and his qualifications.
When an attack is being made up
on a western man such as Roose-
velt is, upon the ground that he lis
too western to be safely entrusted
with the conduct of national affairs,
it is certainly time that the people Of
the west should express theil ap-
proval of his acts and his character

Our western president.

There has never been any presi-
dent before Roosevelt who was SO
thoroughly western in his sympa-
thies and actions as he is.
When he succeeded to the place
left vacant by the murdered McKin
ley the Chieftain and other western
papers pointed out the great advant
age that this section would gain from
a president thoroughly acquainted
with western needs and thoroughly
in sympathy with western desires.
This expectation of benefit from
President Roosevelt has been real
lied to a greater degree than any
one could have anticipated.
It was President Roosevelt that
put new life into the languishing
project of national aid to irrigation,
and made it an actual reality. This
great project which will transform
nearly half the area of the United
States from a desert into the most
intensely productive area on the
globe, is already in full process OF
development and every western state
is rejoicing in its promises for the
future.
It was President Roosevelt that

canal, and that, while maintaining
scrupulously the legitimate rights OF
other nations and acting strictly

al duty, swept aside the railroad lob
by that had blocked canal construc-
ton for many years, and taught the
mercenary conspirators OF petty
South American states that they
could not "hold up" civilization fol
their personal gain.
President Roosevelt aided the
west to secure liberal appropria-
tion for the Lewis and CLARK centen-
nial at Portland.
President Roosevelt has steadfast-
ly stood for the development Of
American trade in the Pacific, a
policy of the utmost Importance fol-

products of Oolorado's mines, factor

for sheriff, and although compare
tive stranger running against most
popular official made such favorable
impression that he was only beat by
one vote. He is better known now
and has grown in the confidence of
the people until his election is prac
tically conceded.
Rosacrans and Rosebrough, the
the two candidates for reelection,
need no introduction to our people
They have made two of the best and
most popular officials the county has
ever had and need no other recon
mendation than their work of the
past three years. That record should
and will give them big majorities.
For commissioners the names Of
w. W. Reynolds and 7. j. Sayler
will be sufficient to give republicans
and also every taxpayer eminent sat
isfaction. They are men of high
business standing and integrity,
fairness and broad views. In pub
lic matters the country can count on
an administration that will ever have
in view the best interests of the tax
payers and the advancement OF
Prowers county. When the votes
are counted they will be far in the
lead.
Markham and Lee, for surveyor
and coroner, are third termers,"
but as this is a case where the more

reelected. Besides the opposition is

The ticket nominated by the re-

selves, there is no question of their
fitness or ability and all are men OF
the highest character and standing
In the communities where they re-
side. The work of the convention
could not have been improved upon
and there is no reason why every re-
publican in the county should not
vote the straight ticket.
All citizens of the county Of what
ever political persuasion are proud
