Should Elk City Advertise.

When q. 4. Rathbun OF Seattle,
who is interested in the develop
ment of the mining resources of
the Elk City district, was asked
this week his opinion of the camp
he said is substance:
81 am satisfied there is an
enormous mineral wealth in the
hills around Elk City. The one
great need of the district Of
course is capital and good man
agenent which, ! presume, has
been often said before, but /
think greater need is change
of sentiment and action among
the people here at home. Not
withstanding that capital is pro-
verbally selfish, there is a good
deal Of Divinity about it. 1t
helps them who help themselves.
My observation tells me that too
many people in Elk City are
waiting for people to come in
from the outside while doing
little or nothing to let people on
the outside know what is here.
Nov, there are probably
many ways in which the local
people could attract the atten-
tion of outsiders, but in my judg-
ment, the first need of all is for
the residents to cultivate the
spirit Of optimism. Pessimists,
those who are always looking
for something to find fault with
and who are pleased with moth
ing that happens are handicap
in any community.
Some people here, l find think
that certain interests outside are
knocking the camp and turning
, away capital. | do not know
what evidence there is along this
, line, but whether it be true ol
not, local people should not bt
) telling it, especially to strangers
1t should only spur them to TRY
! the harder to make the caml
t known and to talk to outsider
and to each other as though Ell
f City is the only good minera
; camp in Idaho. Let everybod.
= help each other. If it is rumoret
that someone is making sale
t others should help it along, fo
D what helps one helps all.
: Another thing the camp need
1 which the local people must d
themselves, for no one else vii
= do it, is advertising. In thes
e days, no business man is success
s full, nor does any community groy
! without being advertised. 1
: few men in Spokane and i
e Lewiston may know of Elk Cit
e but the camp is almost who'll
e unknown on the coast and in tn
d east. Just how to advertise is
/ problem. I should say the bus
e ness interests of Elk City shoul
f get together, appoint committe
l. call it a board of trade or
e chamber of commerce or a locs
II improvement club, and work OF
s. some plan for advertising the di:
% trict. There are probably twent
men in Elk City and Sites wh
:. can each well afford to contr

EVERYBODY GOOD
after REVIVAL
EVEN SCHOOL BOYS HAVE
CEASED TO PLAY MARBLES
FOR "KEEPS."
PEACE OFFICERS ARE IDLE
Great Change Has Come Over New
Castle Since the Rev. Reed
Started Work.
PEACE OFFICERS ARE IDLE

New Castle, Ind, March 7.-Hun-
dreds were turned away from the
Methodist church last night for want
of room, when Rev. C. Fenwick Reed,
the evangelist, made his closing ad-
dress of the great revival. Rev.
Reed chose as his subject, "The
Slums,' and with moving pictures,
illustrated the reign of sin in the
larger cities and also gave it local
application. Today he departed for
his home in Terre Haute and is al
most in a state of collapse from the
continued speaking while conducting
the revival here. The good that has
been done by his work is inestimable,
and only time will tell what effect it
has had. ~..-.
I. At the present time cards have Ia
tailed, saloons and pool rooms have
been almost deserted and the city
marshal has made fewer arrests than
in years. Even boys at school have
ceased playing marbles for "keeps. "
The Methodist church has gained
nearly 800 in membership while the
conversions have been over twice
that many. It has been by far the
biggest religious awakening in this
city in years, and will be remembered
for years.

ORGANIZATION AT FINLEY
SCHOOL is TAKING UP
WITH NEW IDEAS.
It Is the Intention To Start a Cook
ing School at Finley Building
Other Things.

The Mothers Club of the First
Ward, at its last meeting, heard a
talk on "The Fundamental of Char
acter Building for Boys and Girls
by Miss Sarah Hill. Miss Hill
taught school in the Finley building
several years ago, and in her capacity
there, had a chance to observe and
carefully study the habits and life Of
children in that most important pc
riod-school days. Her remarks
were received with interest and will
be needed by the mothers in their
control of their children.
1t is the intention of the Mothers
League to open cooking school in
the third floor Of the Finley building,
and Miss Elsie Marshall gave a talk
on what equipment would be best and
most useful for such a cooking room.
1t is thought that great good can
come of an instructor in cooking, who
can give the school girls lessons at
the school. 1t will increase their in
terest in the school and at the same
time, get them to commence trying to
cook at home.
The coming Richmond Centennial
was discussed and it was decided to
have the club represented at the cen
tennial. Mrs. George II. Knollen-
hero was chosen.
The Mothers Club has accomplish
ed vast amount of good during its
existence, among the mothers of the
children at Finley school and the
greatest amount of interest is being
taken. The teachers learn to know
the mothers, and to communicate
with them on terms of intimate
friendship relative to their children S
needs. Such organizations as this
should prove beneficial in any school
in the city, and it is probable that eff
forts will be made to start them at
the other buildings.

Arkansas elects today a governor
and legislature, and the legislature
will sanction the popular choice of
Governor Jeff Davis for United States
senator. The Arkansas election will
not, however, be a bit significant, for
the state has long been democratic,
and it will go democratic today.
On September 3 Vermont holds an
election. and the Green Mountain state
is as inhexibly republican as Arkan-
sas is democratic. In Vermont the re-
publican nominee for governor is
Fletcher D. Proctor, son of Senator
Proctor, who is the states boss. The
democrats have accepted the candidacy
of Percival Clements, an independent
republican.
