THE COMING ELECTION

The time is not far distant when
a municipal election will be held,
at which time six councilmen and
q mayor will be elected. Every
citizen of Grangeville should take
more than passing interest in the
selection Of men for theee Offices.
Party should be lain aside and men
who are best fitted for the Office
selected. Grangeville has bright
future before it and at q time not
far distant many questions Of pub
lie Improvement are very apt to
come before its council. He who
has no faith in the future of his
town and is not prepared to look
at improvements with an eye to
the future is the man who is least
wanted in the administrat ton OF
the affairs Of the city. The moss
back and the knOcker-the man
who SCOTS at the suggestion Of a
Greater Grangeville is damaging
enough to his town in his home
and should not be allowed to assist
in the administration OF the affairs
of the city. Equally dangerous is
the man with too advanced ideas.
What we want il a business admin
istration; men who will conduct
the affairs of the city the same a.
they would their own and who
have the best interests of the city
at heart. April the second, the
date Of the election, should be kept
in mind by the progressive citizen.

with success 10 Oregon several
years ago by . Mrs. Hayes, the
wife of the master OF the Oregon
State Grange. Many cases Of the
disease were prevalent and in it's
worst form and in it's treatment
the following simple remedy proved
very effective.
Take . piece Of copperas about
the size Of q walnut and lay it on
the top OF q hot stove and burn it
until it is Of q walnut-brown color,
put this dry copperas in cup or
other earthen vessel and add .
very little water and mix and stir
the mixture, (adding water if nee
cessary) then take q swab, Ga
small piece of clean white rag wrap
ped around small stick II moth
ing else can be had, and dip in
this mixture and swab the throat
OF the patient. This may be done
every half hour, or az often as the
attendant thinks necessary. As
this mixture is very strong and cuts
the secretions, care should be taken
not to use it unless it is necessary
to do 60.

HOW MUCH LONCER7

Appropriations to the amount
OF 81, 246, $780, have been made
by the legislature just adjourned
For extravaganza the ninth session
has been q record breaker. Thinh
what the the tax rate will be in
state with less population than
the city Of Indianapolis and tax
able property Of valuation great
deal smaller than the above city.
As is usual, the southern part Of
the state came in for the principal
part of the money to be spent, and
the fact that north Idaho contrib
utes a good share Of the taxes oil
the state seemed to make but little
difference with the legislature.
The state normal school at Albion
comes in for q nice slice Of the
money, and it seems, judging from
review Of the proceedings Of the
Nimble Ninth, that for every dol
lar to be spent in the Pan Handle
country about six are to be given
over to the squandering Of the
southern section. To think OF
maintaining a state educational
school some sixteen miles from any
line Of transportation and in .
sparsely settled country the nature
of which is such that it will be
years before the country is settled
up and its probabilities OF ever
being located on q railroad and
easy of access are the remotest.
One good Normal school is plenty
for Idaho for years to come. There
is school at Lewiston that is in q
fair way to be q great educational
institution if it be properly fostered
by the state and receives the entire
appropriation in place Of having to
divide it up with . little one.horse
institution placed in the wilds, %
q payment Of . political debt.
There is anything but sincere
effort to build up the state being
made by the present legislature.
The south half is always well
looked after with taxes that are
being paid in part by the north.
II things are to continue % they
have in the past it would be we'll
for Northern Idaho to consider
seriously the advisability Of On
Inland Empire state.
