When to Advertise.

Did you ever watch a railroad
engine pulling a heavy load up a
steep grade and notice how the
sleeper the grade became the
more coal the fireman put
onto the fire? Some of our
business men might take a les
son from the engineer and learn
that the time to advertise most
is when it is most needed-dur-
ing the quiet seasons of the year.
It does not take much coal to
haul big load on a down grade.
Neither does it take much adver-
tising to sell goods when times
are booming and everybody is
ready to buy. At this time of
the year, however, after the hol-
iday expenses have been met and
winter is drawing to a close trade
naturally falls off considerably
and unless it is stimulated by ad-
vertising low prices extensively
is apt to fall off almost entirely.
Now, in the quiet season, is
when you should make the most
liberal use of printers ink in or
der to keep your sales up to
where they belong. Later when
spring opens up your sales will
increase also but just now is
when they need boosting. AS
sistance at the right time is al
ways beneficial but don't draw
your fires at the foot of the grade
and expect to get over the divide
without steam. You can't do it.

A New Organization Effected and
Work To Start at Once
COTTONWOOD AND DENvER
Are to be Left Off the Map According
to the New Plans

The trip of the electric line
promoters over the prairie last
week ended in a big meeting at
Grangeville at which place word
was given out that the electric
road had taken on new life and
a new name and that dirt would
begin to fly within three weeks.
From reports sent out it would
seem the road has decided to
change its course and will now
go from Westlake by way of
Ferdinand, Greencreek and Lowe
to Grangeville and thus leave
Denver and Cottonwood off the
map or perhaps it may go direct
to Nezperce and by securing the
services of Santos Dumont and
his air ship jump Lawyers Can
yon and go on to Grangeville and
so split the two prairies directly
through the center. At any rate
the road is to be built at once, if
stock can be taken in Spofford,
Thompson & Co.'S. talk, and
new company called The Central
North Idaho Development com
pany has been organized to de-
velop the immense water power
at Horseshoe Bend on Salmon
river south of Westlake and fur
nish the same to the road for
motive power and to Lewiston
for manufacturing purposes. 1t
is said 42,500 horse power can
be developed there and big things
are expected from it's develop
ment. Grangeville people are
building high expectations on
the coming of the electric road
and all else is overshadowed by
its approach. Mr.. Thompson
stated to the Lewiston Tribune
that that city would be provided
with two miles of electric road
within eighteen months while at
other places it was stated work
would be commenced at once and
the road would be completed to
Grangeville within a year. Also
that it would be built to Waha as
soon as possible and as Mr..
Thompson's interest ends there
and Mr.. Spofford's interests are
of little effect it is quite probable
the line will never be built fur
ther than Waha, unless, as has
been intimated, the Spokane In
land Traction company is behind
the matter to push the road clear
through to Boise. Taken on its
face, however, the project does
not look any better than it did
several months ago and we fear
the high hopes of many will be
dashed to pieces as they have
been so oft before.

three persons whose names are
known and Of two others who

SO seriously injured that it is
thought he will die.
Other passengers were slight.
ly injured. Every coach in the
passenger train was burned and
the freight train which was made
up of cars loaded with lumber
was also burned
The passenger preceded the
freight out Of Austin, about eight
miles west of Helena. At Austin
the engine was detached from
the freight. There is a heavy
grade from Austin to Helena and
the freight train got loose. The
passenger train was waiting at a
crossing when the freight came
laundering down. Before it
could get out Of the way the
freight crashed into it throwing
all the passenger cars into the
ditch. The passenger engine be-
came uncoupled and kept on the
track ahead of the freight. Af-
ter the freight had got quarter

cought fire. A carload of shing-
les was dumped onto the passeng-

the o. R. g. N. road at Bridal
Veil, Oregon, on Tuesday morn
ing when the Pacific express
from Chicago crashed into the
Spokane-Portland special. Four
persons were killed outright and
ten badly wounded. The wreck
was caused by the breaking of an
injector on the express a few
miles east of Bridal Veil. The
escaping steam drove the engin-
eer and fireman from the cab and
when they noticed the flags sent
back by the other train they
went back into the cab to stop
the train but could not find the
throttle because of the escaping
steam and the engine crashed in
to the other train while travelling
about 25 miles an hour. The
killed were E. L. Sinnot, A. p.
