If there is a point at issue where the
democrats of Idaho can take exception
to republican administration OF public
business it has not yet appeared in
public print The democratic press of
the state has not been able to find any
weak places in the republican armor.
This has been a clean cut business ad-
ministration. free from any entangling
alliances. 1t is a record upon which
the republican party of the state can go
into the campaign without fear of
results.

IDAHO At ST. LOUIS

Word comes from ST. Louis that
Idaho is one Of the very few states that
was prepared with it's exhibit on the
opening day of the exposition. Idaho
was perhaps handicapped by the small
est appropriation given to any state in
the union but despite the fact it has an
attractive display covering all the in
stitutions and departments of the state
and showing its resources in all lines.
The Idaho exhibit in agriculture, hor-
ticulture, mining and school work are
so creditable that they bring assertions
from the management at ST. Louis that
idaho is likely to get first in all these
lines.
Idaho received a hundred per cent
credit for being ready in time and the
showing made by the small appropria-
ton is highly creditable to the man.
agement and will be a source of pride
to all Idaho visitors at the fair this
year. 1t will be a great advertisement
to the state and will attract many
homeseekers and investors to Idaho.
The state exhibits at Chicago. Buffalo
and Omaha were a revelation to many
eastern people and proved advantages
to Idaho in directing attention to our
resources. In the same line and in a
more direct manner results will come
from 1daho's exhibit at st. Louis and

to Its merits as an advertising feature

VERY DISASTROUS STORM

Matches, Selah and Sunnyside Sections
Suffer Severely from Breaks in H.

The electrical storms of last Saturday
and Sunday nights were never equalel
in this country. according to the testi-
mony of several OF the oldest inhabi-
tants." 1t is claimed. indeed. that in
former years such displays never occur

have been imported in order to satisfy
the home longings of newcomers who
can trace familiar features i'll the tlmn-
Ger's sullen roar and the light that
fades"
Sentiment aside. however it is an I'M
disputed fact that the few brief wears of
the country'S industrial history have
never produced the like of the thunder

the whole been of the most beneficial
character. in localitic, considerable dam

The committee who are out selling
stock in the Sunnyside railroad and
securing right -of-way report satisfac-
tory progress. says the Sun. Several
miles of rignt-of way have been secured
and a considerable amount of stock
sold and the men who are pushing the
canvass are going about it in such a
an energetic and determined manner
as to practically insure railroad. Yet
no one ever believes that railroad will
come until he sees the train and hears
the rumble of the the cars. hence il
behooves every citizen of the Sunnyside
country to do their utmost at this time
Railroad meetings are being held every
morning in Sunnyside and systematic
canvass is being made.
