THE town election, notice OF
which appears in this issue, oc-
ours next month and it has been
suggested that it behooves all
citizens, who wish to see o bet
terment OF the water system, to
seize this opportunity to secure
the desired end. The water ques-
tion is very much alive and il
need be it should be made an is
sue. Ii the farmers are shut out
rs we are informed the company
intends, should the supply be-
come low, the result will be not
only disgraceful to the company
and the citizens, should they
permit it, but it will be injurious
to the reputation, prosperity
and growth OF the town. II the
water system is in such condi-
ton us to make it necessary to
adopt such u rash course toward
the farmers, there can be no
stronger argument that the sys.
tenn needs remedying, and ii it
needs remedying,it needs it now.
There should be no waiting.
Something should be done eth
er by the water company or by
the citizens in general. There is
danger OF q repetition OF the
conditions which existed last
summer and, to forstall it, q
board OF trustees should be elect.
ed that will take up the matter
and rush it to speedy conclusion.
Don't wait until summer comes
and then voice your sentiments
in impotent kicks and vain re-
grets.

DIVISION POLITICALLY.

THE Cnur d'Alene Journal
deals entertainingly with what
it terms the division politically.
1t tells how b. +. O'Neil, the
wealthy and astute Shoshone
politician, saw in the fight for
division a golden opportunity
to further his ambition for CUB
ernatorial honors. He Joined
issue with the divisionists to get
their friendship and support and
expected to fortify himself in the
north by getting his friends ap.
pointed to the Offices in the two
new counties. But Governor
GJoding saw O'Neil's game and,
having no idea OF abetting a
rival, he forstalled that individ.
ual by appointing his own
friends.
The Standpoint News, which is
said to be O'Neil's subsidized
organ, tends to support that
charge by bearing out, in q man.
ner, the views OF the Journal
The News takes IN opposite
view, as it is bound to do, and
while 1t lauds the virtues o.
Barney O'Neil it seeks to belittle
the qualities and motives OF the
governor, breaking down the
fences OF the latter on the one
hand nnd erecting the fences o.
O'Neil OH the other.
Thus the governors shoes are
in demand, and mingling in the
little political bout appear shad.
ows OF a contest for senatorial
togas and congressional honors
in all OF which the division o.
old kootenai was q mere Incl
dent.

Once at Marseilles 1t entered

foot at the ankle and the hand at the

FIGHT FRUIT PESTS
BULLETIN ISSUED. BY IDAHO
MAY HELP OREGON
Instructions Given TO Idaho Fruit
Growers ana Shippers Apply with
Equal Force to Orcgon-Greatest
Care Should be Exercised I'm Hand
ling Fruit TO Prevent Shipping from
Infected Orchards.

The following warning TO fruit
growers issued by A. f. HIT horti-
cultural commissioner of Idaho, ap-
plies with equal force to Oregon and
IL published in full in hopes that il
will benefit Oregon people. The cir
cular in full, is as follows;
THE time for marketing and ship
ping of fruit Is at hand. The or
chardist has had one year more OF
education and experience In fruit
growing, and also one year more ex-
perlence In combating the insect
pests which seek to destroy the fruits
of his labor, and we hope that he has
taken advantage of past experience
and fought the good fight to a finish
and to the end that there is no dis
eased, wormy or scaly fruit to offer
for sale.
There is rather scarcity of GER
tain kinds of fruits this year and a
prospect for fair prices. at least for
all kinds of fruit, and this will make
the temptation stronger for the or
chardist to dispose of an the fruit
possible, whether IL be free from in
sect pests or not.
This board, together with a num-
ber of deputies, has spent years of
of state money in the horticultural
work throughout the state in the ed
uuation of fruit growers and the en-
forcement of the horticultural laws,
and we have passed the experimental
age and have years ago reached the
age of positive demonstration as to
the control of the San Jose scale and
made long strides toward the con-
troll of other insect pests. If the grow
er has been so careless and negligent
as to allow the scale to remain on his
trees and infeE his fruit he Is Ger
tainly the loser for. as have said
fruit OF all Kinds will bring fair
price.
First, I hereby warn fruit grow
ers not 10 sea- or offer for sale any
fruit infested with scale; and second
! hereby warn all fruit venders deal.
ers and shippers not to handle any
fruit infested with scale
Fruit growers, If you have any
fruit Infested with scale, keep it al
home. Do not bring il to the packing
houses and expect the packer TO soIu
it over FOR you. II will be promptly
condemned " found scaly.
That this as a timely warning, ana
maintain your reputation as frun
grower. Let nothing go to the mar
ket bat strictly first-class fruit. An
deputy horticultural inspectors ane

tine against any and all frui1 in

You play against Eton college.

out and commanded 10 send a fitting
reply. This clever response made him
famous:
