GOVERNMENT AID
TO AVERT PANIC

CHICAGO, May 21.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington, D. c.,
says:
! There will be no decrease in the
prosperity of the country or recur-
renee of the panicky conditions in
Wall street if the administration can
prevent. All branches OF the govern
ment, taking their cue from the presi-
dent are acting energetically and har-
moniously to maintain the existing
satisfactory state of affairs.
The president himself, in the speech
es he will deliver at Indianapolis next
week, will address himself to reassur-
road securities and will state en-
phatically that in the matter of rail-
road manipulation he proposes to let
bygones be bygones, and only endeavor
to secure reforms to prevent q con-
tinuance of the evil practices.
Secretary Cortelyou is following the
market with the cloest attention and
prepared to furnish treasury support
should the exigencies require.
Secretary Wilson has sent three ex-
/ perts to Kansas and Oklahoma to in
vestigate the damage done to the
wheat crop and is prepared to furnish
parasitica1 insect to destroy the de-
vastating bug, but which action is re-
ported to be unnecessary. The secre-
| tary is giving attention also to general
conditions and wherever possible to
facilitating the growth of the crops.
In the department of commerce and
labor. Secretary Straus made arrange
ments for increasing Immediately after
the beginning of the fiscal year, in
vestigation into trade conditions
abroad in order to provide new mar
kets for American products. Every
effort is being assisted by Secretary
of State Root, who, now that he has
settled temporarily the tariff differ
ences with Germany, is arranging to
effect a permanent disposition in the
treaty of reciprocity which will be
submitted to congress for ratification
the coming session. The secretary also
proposes to enter into negotiations
with France and China for the de-
termination of commercial questions.
Altogether, Washington rarely has
seen such activity in order to conserve
the prosperity of the country.

CANADA FORCES
POSTAL WAR

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Through
Postmaster General Lemieux the gov
eminent of Canada has notified the
United States that it will not be pos
sible to handle second class mail mat
ter sent to that country by the United
States by either express or freight
and mailed there. Postmaster General
Lemieux, in a letter to Postmaster
General Meyer, says:
1.-THE department has come to the
conclusion that 1t will be absolutely
impossible to continue the remailing
privilege except at the present rate
of postage between the two countries,
that is, cents per pound"
The Canadian second class rate is
lower than the second class rate of
this country. Postmaster General
Meyer explained today that as soon as
a specific case of refusal on the part
of the Canadian government to handle
American second class matter is call
ed to his attention he will be forced,
under the circumstances, to Issue an
order declining to handle Canadian
publications in this country at the Sec
ond class rate.

BEET CROP
LOOKS GOOD

Notwithstanding the fact that the
month of April and the first week in
May were very unfavorabie for grow
ing crops, the prospect for a bumper
crop of sugar beets is excellent" said
Agricultural Inspector McOmie of the
sugar company yesterday in answer to
a question in regard to the matter by
a representative of the Payette Inde-
pendent.
I'VE took advantage of the fine
weather In March," he continued, land
prepared and planted quite a large
percentage Of our acreage. Conse-
quently we have fine stands with very
few exceptions. The Japanese boys
are mostly here, have been assigned
to their districts, and quite a large
percentage of our acreage is already
thinned. The early thinning will go
long way towards giving a large
yield. A good shower of rain would
be very acceptable at the present time,
but we have an abundance Of water
and can irrigate when 1t is necessary.
see no reason why we should not get
excellent returns IL we will cultivate
often and apply the proper amount of
water at the proper time"

RAIN STOPS
RAILROAD WORK
Great Crop Prospect Result
for Grain on NezperCe
Prairie
Special to Evening Teller.

Special to Evening Teller.
LILO, Idaho, May 21.--Rain has been
falling in this section of the prairie
for the past two days, and work In
the railroad camps has been suspend
ed until the storm abates.
While the crops have not suffered
for rain, the results will be beneficial,
and farmers predict big yield of all
grains this year. The blowing of sum-
mer fallow lands will be greatly facilt-
tated, and all conditions are favorable
for prosperous year.
The chief crop is wheat, but the
spring seeding has been largely barley
and oats. Flax is q past crop In this
section. the farmers practically having
stopped its cultivation.
When the land was first placed un-
der cultivation and when the market
ing of the crop was one of the largest
items of expense, the cultivation OF
fax was one Of the most profitable
crops for the farmers, but the uncer-
tainty of prices during the recent
years. and the fact that the yield has
been less each year on account Of the
land becoming foul, the last shipment
has probably been made from this
part of the country.

VALUES DOUBLE
IN TWO YEARS

With a few assessments yet to be
made, the assessed valuation Of the
city of Twin Falls aggregates $4,000
on so per cent basis. This is equiv
alent to an actual valuation Of $1,000
900, q very tidy showing for a city
that lacks six months Of being three
years old. It is believed that the coun-
ty assessment on the same basis of
so per cent valuation will exceed $3.-
100000, which would give 1t a greater
revenue than that estimated at the
time the county was divided. When II
is considered that two years ago the
assessed valuation OF the county did
not amount to 100000, the increase Ii
little short Of marvellous.

NOT SUBSCRIBE
TO The FUND
Lewiston Business Men Will
Not Assist Saloon
Test Case

The Lewiston business interests will
not subscribe to a fund for the pur-
pose of testing the Sunday closing law
with any of the saloon cases to be
placed on trial in northern Idaho.
The above statement was made by a
prominent business man this morning
who believes, however, that business
men here will assist in the testing of
the Sunday act, but will prefer to have
the test case made with some line of
business other than a saloon.
Il see no need of sending out money
to some saloon man who has refused
to abide by the terms of the new act.
while our saloons have remained clos
ed" he said. Business men generally
are adverse to the Sunday closing law
under the present terms on account of
the injustice of the act and will assist
in testing the legality Of the measure.
1--WE hold that If a meat market and
grocery store is not allowed to sell the
necessities of life that there Is little
excuse for permitting the tobacco and
fruit stands to remain open, and it Is
upon this feature of class legislation
that the test will be made.
Il am positive that if any of the
mercantile establishments Of northern
Idaho or the present meat market case
at Boise needs assistance from Lewis
ton that a considerable sum would be
subscribed here.
I'VE do not wish to be placed in the
position of being opposed to Sunday
closing when such law is equitably
applied, but under existing conditions
we do not believe in one merchant be-
ing closed while another under the
terms of the same act is allowed to
remain OPEN"

ST. LOUIS GOLD MINE.
Traces of the Metal Once Found With
In tho City Limits.

iTaoeS OF une metai Once round WITH
In tho City Limits.
st. Louis has never been known as a
gold mining center, but there was once
O gold mine within the limits Of the
city, and, what is more, it yielded gold,
which Is more than n great many gold
mines In the Rockies have done.
In the sixties Of the last century
there was a well dug on q hill just
east OF Carondelet park, and the well
diggers, noticing some bright, spar
king yellow particles in the clay at
the bottom, did n little washing on
their OWL account and found several
grains - gold In the pan. The news
soon got abroad, and two examiners
from h west who were living in the
neighborhood quickly got the idea that
there was money to be made in st.
Louis gold mining, 30 they sank u shaft
not far from the we'll, fully expecting
rich returns from their work. They
did actually find gold, but In quaint
ties so small that they estimated a
yield Of about 10 cents per ton of clay,
80 they filled up the hole and gave up
the undertaking in that place as a bad
Job.
But they had all the miners enthu-
siasm, and the fact that they found
gold at oil merely stimulated their zeal
to try in another place, SO they went
to the side Of q hill where the Glaize
creek had washed away the earth and
made a clay precipice. They dug q hole
there, where they also found traces of
the precious metal, but in no greater
quantities han before. Then they went
up the creek about a quarter of a mile
and sank another shaft, with no better
result. They spent the whole spring
and summer digging holes around in
the neighborhood Of the park, but the
only benefit they realized from their
work was the s%obriquet 1.-TWO luna
TICS" and people laughed at them SO
much that both left and went back
west, where digging holes in the search
for gold was taken more seriously than
