the entire mileage, but 500 miles are
not equipped with block signals. Most
of the latter, however, are short in

traffic is so light, and of such a char

The ten per cent raise coming without

Political Venom.
Garfield Enterprise.


The attitude assumed by the Pullman
Tribune toward Prosecuting Attorney
Kipp saYOrs strongly of political venom.
During and since the last campaign Bro.
Wenham has, with or without cause,
been persistently abusive in his attacks
upon Mr.. Kipp, and at times there is an
apparent lack of fairness. For instance,
in the last issue of the Tribune he says,
among other things, that "when you
find man obiecting to grand jury you
can bet that he has been into something
that he should not have been in" Since
Mr.. Kipp has publicly announced that
he invites a grandjury investigation
and that it cannot. be held any too soon
to suit him, it would seem that the Tri-
bune is hardly acting in spirit of fair
ness. Ii Mr.. Kipp comes with clean
skirts through an official investigation,
it will be up to Bro. Wenham to crawl
into his hole and pull the hole in after

We are told that Captain John McA.
Webster, agent of the Colville Indian res
ervation, has made an order to the
effect that no white nimrods will be al
lowed hunting privileges on the reserva-
ton this year. This order is the result
of "game hog" operators on the reser-
walton in the past. Large parties of
duck hunters from other parts would
spend few days along the various lakes
of the reservation and go away leaving
hundreds of dead ducks to decay on the
prairies and shore of the lakes. The at.
tention OF Captain Webster was brought
to this and he accordingly issued orders
which will put stop to all hunting ex-
cept by the Indians. The "game hog"
is usually city chap, who is clamorous
for game protection to certain point,
when he hopes to come and kill all in
sight. Captain Webster's action is to
he commended. The ''game hog" is a
detestable creature.

have called the attention Of Secretary
Garfield to the project we have on foot
for opening a new Inland Empire in
Northeastern Washington" said the
senator. "It is my intention to ask con-
gress, at the next session, for an appro-
priation of possibly 100000 to so clear
the Columbia river OF rocks as to enable
small craft to ascend it from Brewster to
Kettle Falls. Here, on terraces carved
in the side OF the mountains which
border the river for approximately $50
miles are farms and gardens, intelligent
people and latent possibilities Of most
extraordinary character. Hitherto the
great difficulty has been to market the
rich fruitages of this section.
cat present the south half of Ferry
county, on the left of the river, is open
for mining, and as soon as some allot-
ments are made to the Indians who for
merly occupied the reservation there the
entire country will be opened for home
stead immigration. The peach, fruit
and grain crops Of this section are most
bountiful and the quality is unsurpassed.
With the opening Of the channel for
small craft a ready market for the
products will be afforded
Instead of being ga new Inland En-
pre-" as stated by the senator, it means
broadening or extension of the
boundaries of the region known as the
Inland Empire, of which Whitman cOun-
ty is a central figure and the biggest
wheat producer. The possibilities along
the upper Columbia river in the state OF
Washington are great, and it is hoped
Senator Ankeny will see the fruition of
the plans he has inaugurated.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years, was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney & CO.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to tesspOonful. 1t acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars

Business Men, Take Heed !

The Spokane 4 Inland will be well sup
piled with stations between here and 10
salia, rendering it convenient for resi-
dents along the route to reach the coun-
ty seat, something quite different from
the present condition of things. The
same can be said for the entire distance
between here and Spokane. As several
trains will arrive and depart each day
from both ends it means a revolution ID
travel and business in many respects,
something that our peOple-partlculariy
business interests-should not be slow to
heed. Cheap, easy and frequent trans
pOrtation means quickened activity IN
travel and increased business. This has
been noticeable wherever electric lines
have penetrated the country districts.
1t will be the rule here, not the excep-
ton. few years ago Occur d'Alene
was one of the most unpromising will
ages in the northwest. When the cleo
trio line between that town and Spokane
was first mentioned many shook their
heads, declaring it would not pay. 1t
was the means of iDfusing new life into
that and tributary territory, until now
other lines are seeking entrance into the
lake city, population has jumped to the
6OOO mark, and business has assumed
metropolitan proportions. We may
look for like conditions to prevail here.
But we should not rest supinely on our
oars, waiting, Micawber- like, for some
thing to turn up. Nothing comes along
by chance. 1t is the active, energetic,
progressive business man who secures
business, and if the business men of Col
fax fail to grasp the chances now within
reach it is their fault, not that of more
progressive neighbor. Spokane should
not be allowed to reap all the benefits
from this road. Coliax, from her geo.
graphical position, should expect much,
which means that much is exacted in re-
turn.

light. They got to the famous resort
after working as they never did before,
but at last accounts were dickering with
