wine, of Salmon, communicated
the news of his conversion to a
personal friend in Boise, in con-
fidential letter; which, of course,
he couldn't give to the press, but
he couldn't keep secret the glad
tidings of another soul saved, and
so the story was whispered around
and, somehow, the papers got hold
of that, too.
Both were Iured into the repub-
lican fold by their infatuation for
that world renowned spectacular
fakir, President Roosevelt; who, a
year ago demanded tariff revision
and is now stand-patter who start
ed out to take the railroad giants
scalp and ended by eating out of
his hand, whom no correspondent
will quote without a witness, to
protect himself against being call
ed liar by this shattered idol.

Weather Report.

The week opened with the tenn
perature above normal over the
southwestern counties and about
normal in the northern and eastern
portions OF the state. On the goth
maximum temperatures of from 80
degrees to above 90 degrees were
of general occurr ence in the west
ern valleys. On the 21st there
occurred change to much cooler
weather over the entire state, and
from that date till about the oath
in western counties and Is in east
ern counties abnormally low tenn
pcratures we're experienced.
During this period minimum tenn
peratures below so degrees were
general in the valleys, and in ele-
waited districts some light frost
formed. BY the close of the week
the weather had become somewhat
warmer, and moderately high
daytime temperatures were the rule,
but the nights were still relatively
cool. The mean temperature for
the week was below normal over
the entire state, the average daily
deficiency having amounted to
about degrees in northern coun-
ties, 3 degrees in southwestern
counties, and 10 degrees in south
eastern counties. The beginning
and close of the week were gem
orally clear, but there were sew
eral days of partly cloudy to
cloudy weather near the middle
of the week, and local showers
visited nearly every portion of the
state during the period from the
DIST to the 23d. These showers
were heavy in southeastern coun-
ties, resulting in some local damage
to agricultural interests. Elsewhere
the rainfall was mostly light,
though generally exceeding the
normal. Numbers of these showers
were accompanied by thunder and
hail. At Mountain Home rain
fell on the 21st, 22d, and 23d,
amuonting to O.46 of an inch. The
maximum temperature was o5 de-
grees on the Doth, and the mini
mum was Al degrees on the 25th.

One sees occasionally the sug-
gestion that the Irrigation congress
take steps to combat the effort now
being made to enlist government
aid in draining swamp lands.
Don't do it. That would be man
Hesitation of the spirit that domi-
mates both the hog and the knocker.
So far as the equity of the thing is
concerned, those interested in
swamp lands have just as much
right to ask for and receive gov
eminent aid as have we who are
interested in desert lands. Such
action would mean an unnecessary
fight and place the irrigationists in
an unfavorable light before every
fair minded man.

Cutie & Frank, of San Francisco,
have resigned from the Pacific coast
management of the Fire Association
of Philadelphia and the Philadel-
phia Underwriters, because they
consider that these companies have
not treated the poor people insured
in them with fairness. The agents
assert that these companies have
paid their rich patrons, but have
scaled down the poor from % to 80
per cent on their policies. 1t is
evidently about time for the muck
rakers to turn their attention to fire
insurance frauds.

Foraker, the Ohio false alarm,
one of the railroad senators who
takes his instructions from the Wall
street. magnates, is now feeding
his constituents on this kind of
dope, in explanation of his opposi-
ton to railroad rate regulation:
my contention was that under
existing law, which helped enact,
having been a member of the SUBJ
committee that framed it, especially
if amended as it should be, every
serious wrong of every kind prac-
ticed by the railways can be rem
edied and that all evil practices can
be broken up as nearly as any law
will enable us to break them up. "
An explanation that doesn't ex-
plain, so thin and gauzy that even
partisan blind bigots can see through
it quite clearly. If he really favor
ed rate legislation, why oppose an
additional or more stringent law?

AN ANCIENT LovE-LETTER.
Tender Missive. Yelloved By Time,
Exhumed from Historic
Ruins

Where are the sfAEs OF yester-
YEAR, must indeed have been asked
musingly By ~ Sauyageot. an anti
quarian who has been digging in the
foundations Of the ancient Church Of
st. Peter at Montmartre. now being
restored. says a Paris correspondent
Of the London Telegraph. He found
there a relic about which one might
philosophize all day. II one had time.
It is a yellow. age-stained letter from
the knight Jean de Cisors 10 fair Lady
Alice de Lisle. and be wrote II 700
years ago. Its words still burn with
a white fire Of chaste passion. though
the knight and the lady are dust. and
no one even knows who they were
From various evidences the anti
quarian concludes that the aged love
letter dates back to the thirteenth cen
tury. and that Il was accidentally
buried In ramparts on the site On
which the church Of St Peter now
stands. From the wording Of the let
ter It may be supposed that Jean De
Cisors wrote it on a night before
battle. perhaps while keeping watch
on the ramparts. He clearly says that
his love for Alice de LisIe IS an Ideal
passion, which dare never hope to be
fulfilled. But she viii never be the
star that guides him. and. IS he may
shortly die. be writes that he wishes
her to rest assured that his last
thought was one Of chaste devotion 70
her. Alice de Lisle, presumably. never
had that letter. Possibly the knight
Jean de Cisors was slain the next day
on the baitlements. and the touching
bit Of paper was buried with him
Did Alice de Lisle mourn him, and
was she worthy OF his love? or did
she. like Dante's Beatrice, marry some
body else and have a large family

Perhaps the most insistent demand
Is for hospital sanatorium facilities

the idea Of hospital But It Is al.

inaries TO any serious attempt to deal

litions. It would seem 70 be impor.
tant to keep as many Of them as pos

But since there are already large
numbers Of negroes in the cities. and
since they will continue TO be attract
ed thither in spite of all the argu-
ments that can be advanced against
such attraction. conditions under
which they live in the cities must be
improved.
Finally, It Is necessary to teach the
negro. as It is necessary to teach the
white man. the simple and comforting
truth about tuberculosis. that II Is
a disease which can be avoided By
cleanliness and right living: that It
can be cured II rational treatment Is
begun in time. and that three-fourths
