word that the great pleasure re-

which stood upon a foundation
of solid rock, has been swept in
to the sea. Not thing stands

David Starr Jordan writing on
the Chinese exclusion question in
the Pacific Monthly expresses it
about right when he says:
1t may be wise, it may be nec-
essary, to exclude coolie labor,
Chinese or Japanese, from America
but we must exclude it because it
is coolie, not because it is Chinese
or Japanese. Define the word coolie
If you can, and then exclude all
immigrants, white, black, or yellow
to which the name applies. Fair
play gives us self-respect and the
respect of our neighbors. And when
China awakens to consciousness,
she will be large enough to engage
our respectful attention. And in
the future commercial progress of
the Pacific Coast the greatest single
factor is the good will of Japan.
The Inland Sea of Japan is the
open door to the Orient. The Bay
OF Manila is only a side exit.

CENTRAL IDAHO SURVEYS.
The Plan is Approved by Gen.
eral Land Office.

eral Land Office.
| A Washington correspondent tt
the Boise Statesmen says:
Surveyor General E. G. Eagleson,
when in Washington recently, took
up with the commissioners Of the
general land Office plan which be
has conceived to open up and de.
velop a large area in central Idaho
which is now but little known and
sparsely settled.
A glance at the government map
of Idaho shows that the great in
terror region has never been sur
veyed and sub-divided. Much OF
the land will never be settled, oil
course, but there is a great area,
in the aggregate, in this interior
region, capable of successful Guilt
walton, and which will ultimately
be settled when it has become sur
veyed and settlers are able to OBJ.
tain title from the government.
Mr.. Eagleson's plan is beiefly
this: to obtain authority from the
land office for the extention Of the
base aud meridian lines across GEN.
trail Idaho, to form a basis on
which to make township surveys
from time to time as may be re-
quested by settlers in the various
valleys and along the important
streams. Frequently requests for
surveys in this region are received,
but as the base and meridian lines
have not been surveyed, there is
nothing on which to base township
surveys, and this work can not be
done.
1t is Mr.. Eagleson's opinion that
once the base and meridian lines
are laid off the demand for town.
ships surveys will materially in.
crease as settlement extends inward
along the more important streams,
such az Salmon river and it's tribu-
taries.
Last year out of s37. 900 allotted
for public land surveys in Idaho,
$4,000 was covered back into the
treasury because the total contracts
let during the year did not call for
the expenditure of the full allot-
ment. Since S37, 900 is available
every year for Idaho surveys, and
since any surplus on hand at the
year goes back into the treasury,
and cannot be used the following
year, Mr.. Eagleson wants authority
to increase the work OF his Office,
not alone to give the state the full
benefit of the allotment, but to
open up as much new territory as
possible. With the base and meri-
dian lines established, there will
be little trouble about making
township surveys, whenever three
or more settlers petition for such
surveys.
The general land Office is favor
able to Mr.. Eagleson's plan, and
when he submits a written state
ment Of the case, will determine
whether or not his request can be
granted. If the commissioner has
to order surveys of base
meridian lines out of the moneys
it is probable the work |
will be done during the coming
summer, and thus use up a surplus
that might otherwise 60 back to
the treasury But il the commiss-
loner finds that legislation is nec-
sssary, the Idaho delegation stands
ready to secure the authority OF
congress. In all probability legisla-
lion will not be required.

OUR MINING INDUSTRY,

NotnIDB ID vi BTootcr pOTtdhCs
to Idaho at this time than encour
agement Of it's mining industry
The work Of the past few years hal
demonstrated that the minera
wealth OF this state is not excelleC
in any portion of the country, IT,
indeed, there ia any other state
that is 30 richly endowed. Substan'
sial progress has been made in q
great many localities, and the de.
sveiopmenta indicate that o large
number of diyidend-paying mines
will be added to our list during the
present year.
Still it is necessary to push this
industry along. There is so much
other territory attracting attention
that Idaho's resources and advan-
tages do not draw as much mining
capital as should be flowing into
the state. We need real mining
men who have capital with which
to operate, and everything possible
should be done to induce that class
to come to this state. In a dozen
districts within 100 miles of Boise
such men could find properties
that would be worth their atten-
ton. Whenever such an one does
have occasion to visit any portion
of this territory he is surprised at
what he finds, expressing astonish-
ment that better progress has not
been made.
If all our people will make it a
point to extend such encourage
meDt as is needed we shall soon
witness diversion OF more capital
to Idaho property. Much is coming.
1t is generally being invested with
wisdom and with bright prospects
Of bringing rich rewards, but we
need more. We need to have
dozen times as many mines in pro.
cess of development by mining men,
and such a condition can be
brought about by united, determin.
ed effort upon the part Of our citi-
zens.
The papers Of south Idaho are
generally criticizing Senator Hey
burn on the stand he has taken in
the forest reserve question while
in the northern part of the state
they are almost unanimous in his
defense. The people Of the south
end may think they know more
about the effects OF the reserve
system than we, who are daily
brought in contact with it, but if
they would spend a year on some
reserve they would probably get a
different idea. The great mineral
resources of this great territory are
known to the north and will not
be surrendered as sheep pasture
to our sage brush neighbors without
q protest.

Socialist Meeting.

The Socialists of Olympia and vi.

day evening, propaganda meeting.
Though the attendance was not large,
considerable interest was manifested
by those present. Clarence Boone,
one OF the nominees for the Legisla.
ture on the Thurston County Social
list ticket, and others, delivered adj.
dresses. Mr.. Boone directed the ma
jor part of his efforts towards the con.
sideration of the woman suffrage ques.
ton. He said that the female sex
had from time immemorial been the
slave of slave, but Socialism pro.
posed to give women an equal show
with the men in the domain of poll.
tics and economics, rights and priv.
ileges they had never heretofore en-.
joyed. Miss Pearl Smith sang a solo
entitled, "My Country IT'S of Thee"
with prolectarian application. Many
in the audience were visibly affected
on account OF the pertinent words
contained in and over the excellent
rendition OF the selection. Candidate
for County School Superintendent,
Miss Frances G. Sylvester, presided at
the organ. On being called upon for
remarks. stated she would be ready to
deliver her message on this Friday
evening meeting to be held at the
same hall, at which Miss Smith has
also agreed to take part in the pro.
gramme. VIM. Coombes, son-in law
of Homer Gray, the osteopatb, on be-
ing asked to give short talk on the
subject nearest to his heart, observed
that the above song had so impressed
him, he hoped the audience would ex.
cuse him. 1t will be remembered Mr..
Coombes' wife was seriously injured in
an accident which happened in Lewis
county, during the early part of tbi.
year, and his family have recently ex-
perienced hard luck in consequence
of this unfortunate affair. They are
temporarily sojourning at Mr.. Gray's
residence, on Main street.
