Dear Sirs: It costs as much to put-on
poor paint as good common saying
and true lit costs much more to put on
poor paint; more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes or paint
and sand or paint and lime or paint and
chalk or paint and benzine or paint and
water; these are the usual cheats; there are
others.
It takes more gallons Of panhandle
cheat than Of honest paint; and the cost
of the labor Of painting is so much gal
lou one gallon costs as much as another,
for labor.
This is the way to reckon your costs for
this year; but how about next year
Paint DeYoe, and next year costs noth-
ing; year after next the same; the same
for several years.
Paint anything else, and your costs recur
according to what You paint-with. Some
Eof the mixtures wear one year; some two;
some three.
It costs twice. three times, four times,
Eve times, as much to paint with cheat as
to paint with Devoe,
Yours truly,

AMERICAS NEED.

The following is taken from the
Wall Street Journal:
What America needs more than
railway extension and western irri-
CATION and low tariff, and a big
ger wheat crop and a merchant
marine and a new navy, is revi-
val of p,ety; the kind that mother
and father used to have, piety that
counted it good business to stop for
daily family prayer before harvest;
that quit the field work half
hour early on Thursday night so
as to get the chores done and 60 to
prayer meeting; that borrowed
money to pay the preachers salary
and prayed fervently for the sal
walton of the rich man, who looked
with scorn upon such nnbusiness.
like behavior. That is what we
need now to clean this country Of
filth and graft, and of greed, petty
and big; Of worship of fine houses
and big lands and high office and
grand social functions.
What is this thing we are wor-
Shipping but vain repetition of
what decayed nations fell down
and worshiped just before their
light went out? Read the history
Of Rome in decay, and you will
find luxury there that could lay a
big dollar over our little doughnut
that looks so large to us. Great
wealth never made nation sub
stantial nor honorable. There is
nothing on earth that looks good,
that is SO dangerous for man or a
nation as quick.easy big money.
II you do resist its deadly influence
the chances are that it will get your

SHOW AT NEZ PIERCE.
Strogoff" Played to
a Large House.

Again the famous Russian play,
michael Strogoff." has been staged
BY L. II. Mitchell and his local
company. This last time the per-
Torrance was given at Nez Perez,
the play being put on there last
Saturday night, and it was greeted
by one of the best and most appre-
ciative audiences that ever witness
ed show in that city. The troupe
accompanied by DIR. Riggs band,
making in all sixteen people, left
here Saturday morning and arriv-
ed in Nez Perce about noon. In
the afternoon the band gave con-
cert on the street and also in the
evening at 7 o'clock. Both of
these concerts were enthusiastically
received by the large crowds that
gathered on the street and pro-
nounced Riggs music the best
that Nez Perez has had for long
time.
When the show began the house
was well filed. The Riggs orches-
ira furnished the music for the
play. The performance began
promptly on time and there was
no hindrance or delay through the
entire play, except when our CO.
medians evoked such hearty out
bursts of laughter, or climax was
so heartily greeted, that the play
ers had to pause for silence.
Though the play was exceedingly
well put on in this city. last week,
those who saw it in both places
pronounced the Nez Perez perfor-
nance far ahead of the production
in this city.
Between the third and fourth
acts Mr.. Mitchell did some fine
speciality work, which was very
enthusiastically greeted. The
specialties were ''Richard Ill.,"
''Dr. Jeckel and Mr.. Hyde and
"Fagan the Jew" in Oliver Twist.
Mr.. Cnrtiss, as the English re-
porter, played his part to perfection
and again very clearly demonstrate
ed the fact that he is a professional
comedian excelled by few.
Our people were we'll received
and nicely entertained while in
Nez Perez and they pronounce the
trip most pleasant one. The
company arrived home Sunday
afternoon.

1t is IA noticeable fact that the
leading newspapers of the country
are rapidly cutting out radical par
tisan politics. In fact there has
never been good reason why a
paper should use a large portion Of
it's space in a TRADE on the opposite
political party. 1t rarely changes
a vote and is really detriment
rather than a help to the best form
of government. Honest criticism
is always admissible but it should
be borne in mind that all Of the
good people are not in one party or
all the bad in the other. The in-
depe ndent voter is the best citizen
and the exercise of this indepen-
dence will invariably elect the
best officials.

The democratic convention at
at Cottonwood, Saturday, placed a
strong ticket in the field. Among
the candidates are men whose
standing and regulations have for
years past kept them in the front
ranks Of Idaho county's most hon
ored citizens. They are men who
can not only command the respect
of their opponents but will win
support from many who can not
entirely agree with them politically.
On a whole we believe the ticket
can and will be supported by every
democrat excepting the usual few
who have some personal enmity or
personal favoritism to crafty.

The greater number of resolu-
tions passed by labor unions re-
garding the alleged assassins of ex-
Governor Steunenburg of Idaho,
demanded speedy trial of the ac-
cused. Either these unions are
misinformed or they deliberately
forget that these accused murder
ers would have been tried long ago
on the merits of the case against
them il it had not been for their
own attorneys. who have done
everything they could to postpone
their trials. There is ring of in
sincerity in this, and until it can
be dissipated no popular sympathy
can be expected for the accused
