FROM THE ASPIRANTS.

Among the brilliant successes Of the

Judge Mann has been on the war
path during the week and wherever
he has gone has met with warm re-
ceptiOns and been addressing large
audiences. Work at his headquarters
has grown with force and fervor, and
his friends are more than encouraged
with theOutlOOk.
Gov. Montague captivated the girls
at the Normal and then moved on 10
Stanton where he has strong follow

come again to Virginia to honor their
dead who fell in battle.
Senator Martin has been meeting
his friends in the Valley and "Hal"

Mr.. Swanson has been swinging
around the circle with his wOnted dash
and good cheer. His friends and adj
mirers will not tolerate the suggestion
that he is in any danger Of defeat.

We regret that Mr.. Roosevelt should
have felt that ii was his duty to have
made the Memorial Day speech. The

going ON so smoothly and pleasantly
that the shock came with unusual sud

is too well grown ever to be small.

The night following the day on
which "Nann PattesOn was turned
out of Jail, she visited a number Of sa-
looms and drank freely. After that
she went on the stage and now she
has been forced to abandon it because
the audience would not respond to her
bidding. The world is a little bit bet
ter than we had thought.

FOREST RESERVE FIGURES.

Says The Lewiston Tribune:
Calculations made by the Couer
d. Alene Press based on figures ta-
ken from the United States Land
Office, shows that of I4S townships
comprising the total area of Koot"
enai county, so have been granted
by the government to the Northern
Pacific railway, IS are withdrawn
in the Priest river reserve, 70 in the
Occur d. Alene Indian reserve, and
10 in the new reserve, making 95
townships, or two-thirds of the coun".
ty, appropriated by the federal gov
ernment. In Shoshone county sim
liar conditions exist. That county
has within its boundaries I3I town
ships. Eleven townships are al
ready in forest reserve and it is pro-
posed to add 81 more, total of IS
townships, leaving 66 townships in
the county outside the reserves.
Deduct from this the Northern Pa
cifc grant lands in the county and
the state selections and there are but
few townships left for settlement or
private ownership. The Idaho coun-
ty figures are not Immediately
available, but the condition there is
| probably worse than in either of the
foregoing instances. AS an instance
of how these reserves are admin
istrated, the Elk City Miner reports
that "Wm. Finley is owner Of a pla'
Ger claim on Red river over which

FOREST RESERVES.

The Idaho Press published at
Wallace, has printed a map Of Ida
ho showing the extent of present
and proposed forest reserves in this
State. According to this map
which is probably quite accurate,
about one-fourth of the entire State
has been, or is about to be, with
drawn from settlement, The mag
nitude of the reserves may be bet
ter appreciated by making a few
comparisons. The area Of forest
reserves in Idaho will be greater

brilliant son, " "best qualified" we
would not stand too confounded
hard upon our own merits nor
scorn too scornfully peanut poll
tics, " nor too much go before the
people to parade our own ''qualifi.
cations and worthiness." We
would hire some forid emissaries to
do that, and then modestly depre-
cate their glowing tributes. Then
we would get right busy construct
ing a nice, workable, non -bustable
political machine that would go ia
any county and keep in any cli-
mate. And when the machine got
to grinding in good shape, going
night and day, gathering support
and momentum in all directions,
we would begin to exhibit conf
deuce in the people, and the better
the machine worked, the more our
confidence in the people. would
grow. And when that old ma
chine had gripped the situation so
that there was NO chance of a mis-
carriage. we would tumble into the
arms of the people, cooling softly:
"1n your intelligence, in your in
tegrity, in your magnanimity our
faith and hope is anchored: Do to
US that which seems meet and we
will accept your Judgment CRATE
fully, we'll knowing that you can
err neither in justice nor in wis
dom" Then to guard against ac.
cident, we would put the machine
on double speed and keep it there
till the papers were signed. Put
your trust in the people, your
brains and money into the machine.

ure to public inspection and conse-
quent public control. The advan.
tage of publicity will be more read
lily appreciated when it is made ap-
plicable to a local condition.
In this state there are probably
$50 lumber. dealers, consisting of
individuals, partnerships and cor
porations. Ostensibly every one
OF them is an independent concern,
doing its own business in its own
way. If such were really the case
there would be a certain amount of
wholesome competition among
them no matter how many private
understandings they might have.
Every once in a while there would
be war. But the amity that abid-
eth among the lumber dealers of
Idaho far surpasseth the fondest
dream of the diciple who enjoined
the brethren to dwell together in
peace. Let the lime light of pub
licity be turned on and it will pro-
baby appear that a Wisconsin or
Michigan syndicate has a controll-
ing interest in every lumber deal
ing establishment in this State.
Every month, or week, or day, the
executive officers of the syndicate,
with headquarters in Kalamazoo OF
Oshkosh, touch the button and the
price of lumber all over Idaho Is
fixed. No dealer dares shave it a
hairsbreadth. The price bears no
relation whatever to the cost. 1t is
fixed like railroad rates, at all the
traffic will bear. Now while this
is practically known to be the situ'
alton, it cannot be proved because
the parent concern is q corporat;er
operating under the laws OF New
Jersey, perhaps. The result is
that there isn't as much chance fol

CONTROL or CORPORATIONS.

Some time ago Secretary of State
Gibson attended a meeting OF the
National Association OF Secretaries
of State at Nashville. Tenn. A
report Of the meeting indicates that
Mr.. Gibson took a prominent part
in the deliberations of the assem-
bled State officers and has the dis
tinction of introducing and carry
ing through two very important
resolutions. They follow:
"Whereas, owing to the many
varied differences in the laws of the
several states and territories govern
ing the incorporation, powers and
privileges of corporations. many of
the states and territories in which
such corporations may operate are
deprived of the essential facts and
data relative to the business deal
iugs of such corporations SO nee
essary to the public good, there
fore be it.
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this association that all companies
and corporations organized and
charted for the purpose of transact
ing business within the confines of
a single state or territory should be
organized and chartered under the
laws of said state or territory, and
not elsewhere; be it further
Resolved, That all companies and
corporations organized for the pur-
pose of transacting an interstate
business within the confines of more
than one state or territory should be
under the control of national legis-
lation, but in such a manner as to
Insure to the several states and ter
ritories all the necessary informa'
ton relative to the transactions Of
such company or corporation with
in the confines of said states or ter
ritories respectively"
Those resolutions, largely in con
sequence of the clear and forcible
argument of Secretary Gibson, were
adopted by unanimous vote. They
are significant as showing the trenc
of public sentiment in the direction
of more complete control of private
corporations by the State and by thu
Nation. The underlying motive
is to compel publicity. Corpora
tions are creatures of the laws mad
by representatives of the people
and, as such, enjoy certain priv
leges, grants and immunities, which
individuals do not enjoy, therefor
the people have a right to know
whether or not corporations ar
doing business on the square. L
order to know this, the affairs

Mr.. George Smith, who until re-

dropped into The Tribune office
Monday morning. Mr.. Smith is
nearly 70 years of age bat quite ro-
bust. Living with him is a wild
owed sister two and a half years
his Junior, with an invalid daugh-
ter. They had lived in Nez Fesce
county upwards of IL years.. Mr..
Smith says the climate in the vicin-
ity of Lewiston is exceptionally
pleasant and the soil quite produc-
tive. He liked it there very much.
For the past five years he had made
comfort able living for himself and
dependents off an acre Of ground,
up the Clearwater, a few miles above
Lewiston and had saved a few
thousand dollars into the bargain.
He says that by careful cultivation
one can make 5000 a year Of an
acre Of Lewiston land and provis-
ion a family of three besides. But
he realizes that he is getting old,
and does not walk about as rapidly
as he used to. An acre is large
tract to cover. He wants ground
that will stand more intensive cuIti-
walton; that will yield the same re-
suits on smaller territory, so he
sold his acre near Lewiston. and
bought half an acre near Caldwell.

An Interesting Trip.

|: Editor Tribune: We have just
returned from Couer De Alene, Spo-
kane and Portland. We attended
the Annual Encampment G. A. R.
at the Lake City June 20 and 2r,
which was a success in the way of
comradeship, patriotism and jolly
good time. The Women's Relief
Corps throughout the state and in
the beautiful city of CouerDeAlene
exerted their efforts to make US
all happy under the old flag. They
gave entertainments, music and a
cordial hand shake with a bounte-
Gus supply of viands and a God
bless you. We were made COM
Portable and happy and were wei
coined everywhere.
The excursion on the lake by
two steamboats, was mpened by
a heavy rain all forenoon but the
excursion went just the same and
much fun, jolly aud joke was on
board.
We succeeded in drawing some
thing for Canyon county, viz;
Payette for next encampment, 1906,
Hon. George Little, senior vice
commander and Henry Bsbb, coun-
ell of administration for the De-
,partment of Idaho. Very good for
one county. Caldwell can get it
the rext time if city and business
men will help, viz: state encamp-
ment.
The electric line from Spokane
to Couer De Aleue is an inspiration.

claim not producing suitable timber,
he cut tree on the public domain
which under the laws, he had a
right to do. This right, however,
the forest reserve officials deny, and
collected $3.50 from him under
threats of prosecution for trespass.
The sum was paid under protest.
He had further been threatened
with arrest and prosecution Unless
he obtained permit to maintain
road house. regardless of the fact
that the ground on which the house
stands is mineral ground and is SO
located according to the laws gov
erning mineral locations. This last
is of peculiar interest in view of the
many noisy protestations on the
part of the protagonists of the
system to the effect that forest

1t will doubtless be found in due
course that tine private business and
private rights of citizens are thus
being taken over into government

has now become a large aud import

pires of territory under his thumb

Just as good when their present

and engage in usefuliudustry in all
that territory, but if he even ven
lures upon it as traveller he for

comes under the dominion of the
whims of the ranger crew. Thus
the business and the rights OF the
citizen are whipped down thinner
and thinner, the business and the
rights of the politician grow great
