Saloons of Northern Idaho.

In an interview yesterday with Fred
White, deputy United States revenue
collector for the five northern coun-
ties of Idaho, and whose territory al
so includes Flathead and Teton
counties in Montana, the Tribune
learns that there are 1872 licensed sa-
looms in the northern section of the
state.
Kootenai leads the list with 113.
Shoshone takes second place with 16;
Idaho county, third, with SO, and
then comes Nez Perce with 55. La
tah is at the foot of the list with 80.
Wallace, in Shoshone county, has
more saloons than any other city In
the north. The number is 80 and
the population of the town is $500,
or one saloon for each III residents.
Wallace, however, receives a large
patronage from the entire Coeur
d'Alene mining district, which ac-
counts for the large number of sa-
looms there in proportion to the res
ident population. Lewiston follows

Following is an entertaining eX-
cerpt from William Jennings Bryan's
last letter from Japan on the subject
of Japanese Politics.:
They have politics in Japan, says
Mr. Bryan. The promise of con-
stitution seems to nave been given by
the emperor before there was any
general agitation for it, but as about
81 years elapsed between the making
of the promise and the realization of
the hopes excited by it, there was a
period of discussion. AS early as
1874 several of the ministers Joined
in a petition asking for the promulga-
ton of the promised constitution.
Their memorial being disregarded
they resigned their offices and be-
came the founders of a democratic
party. They call themselves liberals
and their efforts resulted in an inn
perial rescript issued in 1881 fixing
1889 as the date for the beginning of
constitutional government. Marquis
Ito is now the leader of the liberal
party which had 1S0 members in the
house of representatives in 1904.
In 1882 Count Okuma organized
the progressive party which had last
year a membership of 80 in the house
of representatives. This is known as
the party of the opposition, Marquis
1to's party being the power behind
the throne. OF the two parties Count
Okuma's party is more radical. The
count himself is a born leader and
eXerts large influence upon the poll
tics of his country. When premier
some years ago he lost a leg by the
explosion of a bomb, thrown with
murderous intent by a political oppo-
nent, but it did not diminish his zeal
I'm the prosecution of reforms. The
fact that there were in the last diet
130 who styled themselves 'indepen-
dents" shows that there is a consd-
cradle body to which the opposition
party can appeal when the minister
makes an unpopular move.

POSSIBLE TO COAL AT SEA.
Invention That Is Supposed to Fill n
Long Felt Want.

Washington, March Gone of the
most important steps taken in the
navy department in the way of adding
to the mobility of the fleet in time of
action is the equipment of one of the
naval colliers with an English appar-
atus which will permit of coaling at
sea. This has been a subject discuss
ed with much interest by the naval
general board. 1t is considered of
equal importance with the means of
repairing ships on the firing line by
the employment of a floating dock.
If vessels can be coaled at sea, of
course, there will be a great saving
in time, which, in the event of war
means the preservation of the integ-
rity, and therefore the maintenance
of the efficiency of the fleet. The
adoption of the British system of coal
ing ships at sea will not be received
In all quarters with approval, since 1t
means the rejection of an American
model. which was recently tested In
the service and without those results
deemed satisfactory by the expert OBJ
servers.
In the contract made for the instalt
lation of the apparatus on the naval
collier II Is stipulated that the con-
tractors shall receive no compensa-
ton until the DEVICE has been fully
tested unGer practical! conditions. This
will include coaling a: Il distance from
shore and in reasonably rough

We shall confess that the men of
Oregon have been more charitable
and manly than the men of the great
majority of states in extending politi-
cal rights to women. Our legislators
have made great innovations upon
the common law. There was a time
in American history, and 1t is still
so In many places, when the husband
and wife were considered as one
person. and the legal existence of the
wife was suspended during marriage,
or, In other words was merged into
that of the husband.
She could not contract a personal
obligation; she could make very few
contracts-barely any-without the
written consent of her husband, and
any attempt to do so was absolutely
void. She lost her identity, and was
person non sui juris, and we might
almost say non compos mentis.
A great many of these disabilities
have been wiped away by the noble
men of oregon. AS rapidly as civili-
zation progresses the rights of women
increase, and the time Is not far dis
tant when she will exercise every po-
litical and civil right and liberty that
ma nexercises. The farther back in
history we read, the darker is the

Is considered mere chattel kind
of underservant: but, modern his
tory, the history of civilization and
progress shows quite a change, and
woman is continually evolving out Of
the mire and bog of slavery and de-
veloping into the highest kind of cit
izenship. This is equity, good citizen
ship and humanity.
Arguments of the Opposition.
The enemies of woman suffrage
tell us that women would not vote II
they had a right to do SO. Voting
alone is not all that woman suffrage
means at the present time. 1t means
that she shall have the right to every
political and civil privilege, both legal
ana equltaDle, tndt man mas, III otnei
words, that she shall be his equal In

Those who do not want to vote
need not do so; there will be no COM

THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN JAPAN

there are a number of societies form
ed for the study of political questions.
There are economic associations in a
number of cities composed of the
leading business and professional men.
l met the members of these societies
at Toxic, Osaka and Nagoya and was
impressed with the attention that
they are giving to economic problems.
They have in Toxic another organiza-
ton called the Political Economy as
sociation which deals more directly
with matters of government. The So
ciety formed by the men who were
educated in America, known as the
Friends of America, (Baron Kaneko
is one of the leading members) takes
a deep interest in all matters relating
to government and political economy.
The leading political question in
Japan today insofar as 1t affects do
mestic affairs, is whether the cabinet
shall be selected by the emperor re-
gardless of the prevailing sentiment
in the house or be made to conform
to the will of the people as expressed
through their representatives. At
present the emperor's councillors are
chosen at his own discretion and the
states of Satsuma and Choshu have
had controlling influence in the Sc
lection of the emperor's advisers.
The democratic sentiment of the
country is at this time crystallizing in
favor of the demand that the emperor
take for his premier the leader of the
popular party, as the king of England
does. However much this reform may
be delayed by circumstances, 1t is
bound to come If Japan is to recog-
nize the right of the people to govern
themselves.

That there will be all kinds of en-
ployment for the labOring men of
this section during the coming sum-
mer is the opinion of those who pay
close attention to such affairs. This
is based on the fact that there are
several enterprises on hand for the
summer which will require many la
borers. Chief of these is the north
bank road which the Northern Pacific
is already building down the Column
bia, and on which they now have
large crews at work. Then there Is
the lewiston Riparia branch, the
Wallowa road and other minor rail-
road extensions.
There will doubtless be work for
many from this section on the East
Umatilla project when the same Is
gotten under way. 1t is said bids for
contracting work may be asked for
by May /, and in that case actual con-
struction work would not be long de-
ferred. AS to how much employment
the project will provide, little seems
to be known now. But of the amount
to be expended in establishing the
reservoirs and canals certainly the
greater part will be for wages of
workmen and engineers.

Spring Work Now On.

Aside from the above named
sources of employment there will soon
be considerable work in connection
with the farming and stock business.
Spring plowing and cultivating has
already commenced, and many men
who have been idle during the winter
months have secured employment on
the farms of the county For this
class of work the ruling price is $50
per month.
Iambing will have commenced on
the sheep ranches of the county with
in a few weeks. In some places the
season opens on March TO- However,
it will not be in full blast until about
the 25th of this month. During this
time there is abundant work for
those who know something of the
sheep business. The wages paid for
lambing hands are generally the same
as for herders. $35 and $40 per month
though some receive but $50.
Following the lambing season
sheep shearing will be taken up.
However. much of this is done by
travelling crews or by machinery.
Then during the summer months
harvest will be on, and many men
will be required by the threshing out
fits of the county. However, with the
combines now in use there is no
longer the need of big crews of for
mer years. and harvest is no longer
the source of employment 1t once was.

Two Glasses of Men.

However there is a decided differ
ence between railroad and other sim
liar work from that on the farms and
stock ranches. Also the men are en-
tirely different for the most part. OF
the railroad laborers the majority are
restless pick and shovel men, who are
used to working in gangs under
foreman and who are not fitted for
farm hands. Nor are they wanted by
the farmers. According to ]. c.
Spoonemore. the employment agent,
ii is difficult to get a farmer to take
one of that class. In the farm werk
of this county where gang plows.
large harrows and other machinery
is used it requires a man of some ex-
perience to do the work. Consequent
ly. farmers do not want to employ a
man who has had no experience.
Nor do the farm laborers as rule
care for pick and shovel work. Con-
sequently there is little competition
between them. But there are proba-
bly, enough who will go into the rail-
road camps that men will be scarce
during the height of the season this
summer. So it may be wise for far
mers who need much help to have
men engaged before the season opens.

Men May BE Scarce,

In view of the number of men to
be employed on railroad and other
work in this section it would seem
that the demand for men might eX-
ceed the supply. That some Will
leave the farm work to accept en-
ployment in the railroad camps there
is no doubt. According to Clarence
Penland, who conducts an employ
ment business during the summer
time, many transient men have passed
through here within the past few
weeks bound for the north bank
camps. Many of these are men who
have previously found employment
on ranches. In the railroad work 81
