A writer In Die Woche warns tour.
AweB against the temptations Of the bM
Of fare and commends the old German
adage, what the peasant knows not
he will not eat" Special or national
Dishes" he says, should be avoided
because in order to appreciate them
one must be accustomed to them. We
always form an idea as to what these
dishes should taste like. and our FIRST
experience with them is always dis
appointing. II you must eat these ma
donaI products Of the kitchen, order
them In the best hotels or at the first
class restaurants, for there they are
idealIzed by careful preparation and
superior ingredients" The writer gives
special warming against the dishes with
queer names which are served in Aus
tria and advises tourists to ask what
these preparations are before ordering
and eating them. AS an example he
quotes Hungarian partridge" which
may be found on nearly all bills Of
fare. This is really dish made Of
pork esvings"-namely, ears, tails,
muzzles, etc, land as little like the
name as the Englishman's cheese prep
aration is like a Welsh rabbit"

off in a sailboat TO see Phillipa.

THE COUNTY SEAT.

The organization of a County Seat
club LAST evening means that this city
is going into the contest to win. Our
citizens propose TO make . clean,
open Hght TO obtain the removal OF
the seat Of government for Kootenai
county from Rathdrum to this city.
While there may be an element Of
seIfishnes connected with the contest.
II is uot ell that on the part of those
who favor removal. There are more
good, legitimate reasons for 1t than
will usually be found In such con-
tests. IL will be the aim of Occur d.
AIene to show these reasons and ex-
plain them to the people Of the coun-
ty 10 q manner that will convince
them of the expediency and desira-
billy of change.
The effort of Occur d'Alene to OBJ
tain the county seat will be based on
broader and higher grounds than
those Of injury to Rathdrum or to
make the fight personal between the
citizens OF the two towns--it will be
made under the slogan of '"The Great
est Good to the Greatest Number OF
People," On these grounds We will
wage a winning war II We back 1t up
with the facts to make IL convincing.
In connection with the opening Of
the campaign one of the prerequi.
sites will be the securing of suitable
site for county buildings. These
sites are not plentiful. but the Press
has mentioned one or two. Another,
aud what We consider q very desirable
one, would be TO secure 3 couple OF
acres In the northeast corner of the
land controlled by the electric line
for terminals. This would be u mos
desirable location, and with the con
sent Of the railway officials, who hold
thesl land from the government with
out title so long as 1t Is used for rail
way terminals. an act could be passC
through congress granting the land t.
the county to be used. The Pres
suggests that this matter is w0rtl
looking up.
