Drank ChIoroform.

Milton Sims, who has been
tending bar for c. w. Thompson,
made an unsuccessful attempt at
suicide Wednesday afternoon.
The previous day he was dis
charged and Wednesday he APP
peared much discouraged. In
the forenoon he was seen with a
bottle of carbOlic acid which he
said he was going to use to fumi-
gate his house. A little later he
went to the drug store and pur-
chased three ounces OfchlOrOfOrm
which he said he would use for
polishing purposes. At2 o'clock
he went into the Rietmann hotel
office and had a fit, becoming
unconscious in a few moments.
Drs. Hinkle and Olson were hur-
riedly summoned and worked
hard with Mr.. Sims for several
hours. Early Thursday morning
he began to come to and is now
rapidly recovering.

One Of our exchanges remarks: The
class that builds city and enjoys life
and makes the best citizens, are the
enterprising and liberal men who believe
in living and let others live and who,
when they get a dollar, don't squeeze it
until the Goddess Of Liberty feels as if
corset laced to the last notch ewould
feel more comfortable. Such squeezing
is what causes hard times and stops
circulation Of the American eagle. II
it were not for our broad-guaged, enter
prising men it would be impossible to
build an enterprising town.

From the North.

The following letter from E. A. PeteI-
son, who is on his way overland from
White Horse, Youkon Territory, Can
a la to Dawson, will most certainly be
very interesting to his many friends.
Editor Troy News-~Dear Sir As
am on the point of leaving this place
for Dawson Y. T. Please have my adj
dress changed on the Troy News My
self my, son-in-law j. 2. Sahlin. and
Fred Portfors will leave for Dawson in
the morning on foot $50 miles, and will
drag our blankets and grub on a sleigh
1t no doubt will be a tough trip but
hope sixteen days will take us there all
right. BY walking we save at least one
hundred dollars apiece. We have very
fine weather here now and | hope it
will continue until we get to our desti-
nation. When we get there and find
out something about things we will let
you hear from us. Hoping to have
my friend The Weekly Troy News, ahead
of me at Dawson. / remain Yours
Truly, +. A. Peterson.

WHERE HE GOT 1T.

After reading the article in the Star
purporting to come from a Kansas ex-
change, relative to Congressman French
and the post office department, we sent
the following telegram to Col. Shaver;
North Idaho Star, Moscow. Idaho, -
Give name Of Kansas exchange
quoted last week condemning French.
Wire reply at my expense. P. L. Or
cult"
But we have concluded Col. Shaver
didn't get the telegram, for he made nc
reply. Certainly he would have gladly
furnished the desired information. We
then started little investigation and
soon discovered why the Star editor
didn't tell where he got it. It was
clipped from The Appeal to Reason, -
from which the Col. evidently draws a
great deal Of his information. Not
only that bur he is about as full Of pes
simism as is the editor Of the Kansas
paper from which the article was
clipped.

THAT STATE LAND.

There has been some rejoicing
throughout the state over the report
that 1000 acres Of scab land selected
by the democratic state land board for
the state institutions, was to be relin-
pushed, and good land to be selected
in lieu thereof The dispatch says:
This action will save the state about
$500,00 which otherwise would have
been lost to the state institutions. "
Who made that selection Of worthless
land, taking barren peaks and treeless
mountain tops while there was available
thousands Of acres Of the very finest
timber land in the world? Was it a
mere accident? Not at all. Only one
thoroughly conversant with the terri
tory covered could possibly have picked
out all the poor land in the entire
northern end OF the state. It was sim
ply disgraceful piece Of high-handed
thievery, in which the public institu-
tons OF the state were robbed Of their
land grants by the democratic state
land board and the timber syndicates.
1t is but one more chapter Of the story
OF crime equaling in magnitude any
thing written in the calander Of politi-
cal perfdy and human cupidity. 1t
was no mistake. No error was posi-
bic. With full knowledge OF the stu
alton the man who was sent to Lewis
ton to make the filings on the state
land filed upon the AS, 200 acres which
through the efforts Of the republican
state land board, and a republican u.
S. Senator, have just been relinquished,
And at the back OF the state selector,
as he stood there making his worthless
selection, was a representative Of the
timber syndicates who, as soon as the
state had concluded, stepped up and
scripted some $4,000 acres Of the
finest timber in the world today. One
may draw their own conclusions but we
desire to ask how it came that the state
made such a very poor selection while
there was so much valuable land avail
able? The answer is certainly plain.
But the great damage is in the fact
that although the government has fin
ally permitted the state 70 relinquish,
the opportunity TO select the most val
liable lands cannot be recalled, and a
loss has thereby been inflicted which
can never be made good. The people
ought to acquaint themselves with the
facts, and when men write the history
Of the democratic party Of the state let
the truth be recorded. Nor should we
stop here. The syndicates that profit
ed by this deal, the men who now hold
title to this valuable land which the
democratic party threw away, are still
here, and with brazen efirontry are ask
ing for more. The public must, we
are told, stand and deliver, because
some assure US, they are honorable
men. Perhaps they are, but if so il
only proves the truth of the saying
That there is honor even among
thieves"

A Seattle dispatch says the railroads
will not violate the new commission law
in the state Of Washington. Yet there
were some who didn't believe the big
transportation companies could be COM
PEELED to deal fairly with the people.
Some act as though they thought the
corporations were bigger than the
people. Let Idaho follow our sister
state and assist in compelling all trans
portation companies treat the people
fairly. The Roosevelt maxim of "a
square deal for every man. is to the
point.

Smurthwaite, the prominent Salt Lake
citizen who was put out Of the Mormon
church for criticising church practices,
has put the church in a hole. The
charges against Smurthwaite for apostacy
were filed by Bishop GODDARD, Of Ogden.
Smurthwuite now files charges with the
church against GODDARD to the effect that
he is living with two wives contrary to
morality, the laws Of man, of God, Of
the church and the Woodruff manifesto.
GODDARD is high in the church. If the
church ignores the charge it puts itself
on record anew as iavoring polygamy
and it cannot condemn GODDARD because
the majority of the apostles and the
president are living in polygamy.-

We will reply to the article in last
issue by Carl Milton by asking him to
tell US how many cords of wood he OF
his neighbors have sold to Montgomery
Ward & Co., the PAST year. How many
rolls Of butter have Sears, Roebuck &
Company taken from Latah county far
mers in the past twelve months? How
much have they contributed in taxes
to the support OF our county, or what
have they done towards keeping up
our reads and schools? How much
have they paid to labor here? That it
pays to spend our cash at home is a
question long since admitted to be a
sound policy, and we believe it is still
all right. We will admit that Mr.. Mil
ton is correct when he succeeds in dis
posing Of just one cord Of wood or a
head of cabbage to anyone Of the big

CLEAN UP.

With the coming of Spring, let US
clean up. The budding trees, the
happy birds, the sweet and beautiful
flowers, all appeal to US to put on a
newer, cleaner appearance. Let every
yard in Troy be raked, the trash burned,
and things made pleasant and inviting.
Just try few hours at the business end
of a rake and see what wonders you
can accomplish. The entire town
should be renovated. Every alley
should be cleaned, every street made
as attractive as possible. Old sidewalks
ought to be repaired, broken planks
replaced, and rubbish removed to the
dump yards where it will no longer
offend the eye nor contaminate the
fresh, pure spring air.

new CZARIS WANTED

A special telegram to the Chicago
Daily News from st. Petersburg says:
From a most reliable source your
correspondent is informed that the
local reform leaders of Moscow, most
of whom hold official appointments,
have resolved that if the czar should
persist in his unyielding attitude they
will convoke a national assembly and
elect another czar.
Nicholas, however, seems to appre-
ciate the gravity of the situation. His
object in selecting Washington as the
site for peace negotiations and Count
Muravieff as one of the ENJOYS was to
gain time. He hoped that in the mean
time the interior troubles would SUBJ
side and that General Linevitch, hav-
ing been reinforced, would show the
Russians in a favorable light in the
field.
Events have upset the calculations.
The country is torn by revolution.
Moscow itself threatens to name pro-
vincial government.
Japan has now occupied the islands
of Sakhalin and brought the war into
Russian territory. General Hazegawa
is fastening to invade the province of
Ussuri, and thus the japanese ENJOYS
will have a right to demand a cession
of territory.
Muravieff will now proceed to Wash
ington at once. The czar will also
leave for Moscow. He will instruct
various mayors of cities now in con-
ference there to meet him at the Hen
sky palace, where he will declare his
readiness to yield to their requst for re-
forms and will ask for their support.

M. Jaurez Prints Speech.

The speech of M. Jaurez. the So
ciaist deputy, the delivery of which in
Berlin Saturday was prohibited, APP
pears in M. Jaurez's paper, L'Human-
lite. 1t covers 10 columns and is a
fervid, powerful and mastery appeal
to the socialists of all countries, par
ticularly those Of France. Germany
and England, to adopt a common pro-
gram against militarism and the cap
italist and work together in the cause
of peace. 1t points out that a con-
fiict between France and Germany and
Great Britain would be a disaster to
the world. each being necessary to
civilization and each having a noble
aim.
