COST OF LIVING AND PROSPERITY

Statisticians and politicians are
making a great hue and cry about the
Increased cost of living in the United
States and have charged it to various
causes and are using 1t to attain var
ious results.
1t is true that the cost of living has
advanced, materially advanced, but 1t
is not local condition, but world
wide condition. and due to we'll defined
economic laws. In this connection
recent report from the German stat
istical bureau showing a summary of
the average prices of food products in
the empire during the past year, gives
general increase confirming the as
sertion that the Increase OF the cost
IN the United States for the necessi-
ties OF life is simply part OF a world
wide movement
Wages have advanced also, and are
still advancing: the cost of production
has advanced and values OF all classes
of products have increased, food pric-
es among the others Not only has the
the cost of living increased from this
source but it has also increased from
the fact that there is a marked in
crtase in the standard of living. This
generation is living better than former
generations have lived, having more
comforts, enjoying more privileges. 1t
has been aptly said that the luxuries
of life have now become the necessi-
ties.
One reference from the German re-
port referred to is in point The sta
tistics regarding the consumption of
bread In the empire show that for Is
years past there has been no altera-
ton in the total annual consumption
OF bread per capital. There has been,
however, a marked change in the rel
alive amounts in consumption Of bread
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-03-27

made from wheat -four and the less
expensive rye bread. In 1893 the per
capita consumption of rye bread was
34S pounds; from 1898 to 1905 1t was
$50 pounds, and in 1905 it was 324
pounds Wheat bread shows a corre-
spending growth from 1873 pounds per
capita in 1898, with an average the
next IL years of 1879 pounds, to zoo
pounds in 1905. AS this increased use
of costlier wheat bread has taken place
almost exclusively among the work.
ing classes, it testifies abundantly to
their more ample wages and greater
command of the comforts of life. And
what is proven by the report is true
of all countries having an advanced
civilization and more abundantly true
Of the United States than anywhere
else.

ONE OF LgwIsToN's NEEDa

One Of Lewiston's chief needs at the
present time Is more people. They
are needed in every line and must be
secured If we expect to grow and
thrive.
We do not want to be understood as
saying that we need more laborers,
although we are not aware that there
IL a surplus. but we do need thous-
ands of energetic homebuilders to de-
velop the wonderful resources Of the
outlying country.
1t is doubtful If anywhere in the
United States can there be found a
section of country that offers so boun-
teous returns to the laborer as do the
fertile lands that are to be had In he
vicinity OF Lewiston and Charleston
Upon the development of these lands
largely depends the substantial growth
and development of the twin cities,
and the combined efforts of the bust
ness men and citizens in general,
should be devoted to making known
the rich rewards that await the home
DullueT III THIS SeCtlOn.
Every encouragement possible should
be rendered. the work of developing
the land possibilities. Instances In
Vulnerable can be found substantial
ing the seemingly wonderful yield of
our lands. In truth the highest and
most intensive system of cultivation
yet pursued is but beginning in the
school of scientific agriculture.
What we look upon as wonderful
productivity in the soil now, will ap-
pear as mere beggary as compared
with the yields that will follow the real
intensive methods that VIM be pur-
sued by the adept in the work of horti-
culture and agriculture of the near flu
rture.
The lands are here. both irrigated
and non-irrieated The irrigated lands
are susceptible of the most intensive
culture. Adapted to the production Of
all of the choicest grapes, berries, cher
ries, peaches and apples and the nom
irrigated lands affording opportunity
for the growing of the cereals and fod-
der plants at the minimum of cost
and labor.
1t is to the dividing the breaking
up into small HOLDINGS of these lands
and their true DEVELOPMENT that we
must look for our growth and future
prosperity.

lands will come fhe factory, ana min
We canot hone to secure these indus
tries until we have built up the small

towns and while II is desirable to
work for mills and factories It will be
found waste Of time and money to
attempt the inducement of such lines
until every acre of our now undevel-
oped lands have been made to earn
their limit.

Thinks War Must Follow.

St. Petersburg.-Greati importance is
attached here to the declaration made
by War Secretary Taft at Toxic re.

the determination of the United States
to carry out an extensive expansion
policy in the Pacific. The NovOe

says it regards the retention of the
Philippines as being a clear evidence
Of the aggressive intent of the United
States, which. in spite of the enormous
cost, is yet determined to retain a mil.
itary and naval base which is useless to
them except in case of war.
The paper says:
I'VE regard clash between Amer.
ica and Japan as inevitable. Otherwise
the former would have got rid of such
all expensive colony long ago. Yet the
clash will not come soon. as Japan is
now without resources. while America
Is busy digging the Panama canal"
The Russ, while attaching equal i'm.
portance to the canal. says it considers
that the Japanese have no intention of
fighting the United States, preferring
to follow the lines of least resistance
