They do not help to build school
houses for your children; the local
merchant does. They do not assist In
the support of your churches; the
local merchant does.
But there are some things the cata.
logue houses do for you and the
first and greatest OF these is to assist
materially in bankrupting your COM
munity. The dollars they take away
never come back to you. They will
never help to make a city of your vii
lage. They will never increase the
value of your Teai-estate holdings by
making local improvements.
Let us look at the subject from the
standpoint of the farmer, for 1t is the
farmer who Is the greatest patron Of
the catalogue houses.
The town or village one, two or
three miles from his home is his mar
ket for the butter and eggs and other
produce of his farm. The half dozen
or more merchants of the town, each
anxious to obtain his full share of the
business of the community, maintain
a competition that affords to the
farmer at all times. top prices for the
products of his farm. II is these half
dozen merchants that make farm
profits possible; the profits are In no
way due to the catalogue houses of
the cities.
But the farmer persists In sending
his dollars to the city. He wants a
buggy, or set OF harness, or pair
of stockings, or any ot the necessities

The farmer can continue TO send his
money to the catalogue house in the
city for his supplies. but he cannot
send his produce to the same place.

In disposing OF that he is absolutely
dependent upon his local merchant,
and by his patronage of the catalogue
houses he has killed competition, and
must now take whatever Is offered for
what he has to sell.
Mr.. Farmer, are you helping to kill

Are you sending your dollars to the

ing the local industries of your town?
Are you putting your merchants out
Of business, and creating a monopoly
that will pay you what 1t pleases for
the products of your farm?
II you are doing these things 1t il
time for you to stop and consider the
future. You will have to look but Q
little way ahead to see the result, and
1t will not be an attractive picture that
greets you. The prosperous COM
munity of which you are now q part
will fade like the summer flowers be-
fore the winter winds, and almost as
quickly.
II is the fact that there is a market
within close proximity to your farm
that makes your acres valuable. The
men who maintain this local market
for you are the men who cause the
railroad trains to stop at your town.
Take them away and soon the town
will be wiped off the map The
churches will close for lack of support.
The schools will cease to be a pride,
and your sons and daughters will lack
the opportunity that is theirs by right
of birth, and your acres, that are now
valuable because they lie in close
proximity to a market, will show Q
depreciation that will astonish you.
Your interests are identical with
those of the merchants of your town.
BY sending your dollars to the city
you may cause the merchants to close
their establishments, but when they
are forced to this they can pack their

then, is the reason for fear lest timber
will cease to be Of ally value? The
fact that here in Latah county we have
an abundance ought not to blind US to
the real situation. The United States

people consume quite pile Of lumber

ground for any one holding timber to

SOLDIERS AT GOLDF1ELD.

The sending Of soldiers to Goldfeld,
where the Western Federation Of Miners
is on a strike, has caused a great hue
and cry from organized labor in some
quarters. This howl has been taken
up by various politicians, like Fred T.
Dubois and other Office seekers, with
the sole purpose Of making themselves
solid politically with the labor union
votes. Why should any citizen who
does not intend to violate the law OBJ
Ject to one or ten thousand soldiers?

how much he is watched by the sheriff
or how many soldiers are quartered in

place where Western Federation men,
bers operate is the best Of reasons why
the soldiers ought to be there. II more
reason for soldiers at Goldfeld is needed
one might find plenty by reading up the
history OF the Western Federation. The
Western Federation is criminal organ
ization, anarchistic in principle, rebel
lious in spirit and seditious in its utter
ances. 1t is opposed to law. 1t re-
spects neither the rights Of property nor
the life and liberty Of other men. With
it crime is badge Of honor and GER
tain passport to advancement within its
ranks. If not so point out just one in
stance where the Western Federation
has ever condemned or in any way pun
ished member for even murder. If
not criminal why has it always resorted
to intimidation, violence and destruc-
tion' Why did that organization ap-
plaud and approve the utterances OF its
president. Edward Boyce, when he said
that he wanted TO see twenty thousand
armed men in the ranks OF labor? Why
did this organization support Eugene
V. Debs in his seditious utterances
when the State Of Idaho attempted to
do that which Clarence Darrow, the an
archist, admitted was the plain duty Of
the state?
If Fred T. Dubois really is in sym
pathy with the Western Federation his
right to that position will not be denied,
but he will find little sympathy among
tie rank and file Of the democratic citi-
zens Of Latah and other counties.
Judging the future by the past the gov
eminent is justified in sending armed
guards into every mining camp where
the Western Federation has foothold,
and in keeping loaded musket with
the business end we'll oiled. Mr.. Du-
bois will find he is playing a loosing
game for the people have little patience
with crime or criminals. Nor do they
oelleve that prevention Of crime by
reasonable caution is a sin. Would it
not have been blessing to even the
union labor Of the Occur d'Alene dis
trict II the government had sent soldiers
there before the mob destroyed prop
eriy and murdered two menu Ger
tainly, and such action would have
been welcomed by every honest citi-
zen, either in or out OF the Western
Federation. The idea that soldiers are
a menace TO honest men is silly, sense-
less rot.
