The fact that the farmers of Neg
perez prairie are becoming more con-
servative and more careful In a BUSH
ness way Is evidenced by the amount
of grain insurance that has been
written this year. The cost of this
insurance has been reduced very
materially during the past two years
andis nov only trife while the loss
of crop to many different farmers
this year would mean their financial
ruin. A business man in town or
city carrying a stock of goods Who
does not carry insurance is looked
upon by the wholesale houses an

tending credit to him. II he should

Thank God. some of us have, and
others have had. an old-fashioned
mother. Not a woman of the period,
enameled and painted, with her great
chiznon, her curls and hustle; whose
white lewelled.hands never have felt
the clasp of her baby fingers; but a
dear old-fashioned, sweet-voiced
mother. With eyes in which the love
light shone and brown hair threaded
with silver, lying smooth upon her
faded cheek. Those dear hands
worn with toll, gently guided our
tottering steps to childhood and
smoothed our pillow in sickness !;
even reaching out to Us In yea-ning
tenderness, when her sweet spirit
was babtised in the pearly spray
OF the river. Blessed in the memory
of an old fashioned-mother. It
floats to us now, like beautiful per-
fume of some woodland blossoms.
The music of other voices may be
lost but the embracing memory of
hers will echo to our souls, forever
Other places will fade away and be
forgotten, but her will shine On until
the light from heavens portals shall
glorify our own. When in the fitful
pauses of busy life our feet wander
back to the old homestead, and
crossing the wall worn threshold,
standing once more in the Iow,
quaint room, as followed by her
presence, how the feeling of childish
innocence and dependence comes
over US, and we kneel down in the
molten sunshine streaming through
he western window-just where. |
ong years ago, we knelt by our
Mothers knee, lisping "Our Faith
r." How many times when tenn
ter lured us on has the memory of
hose sacred hours, that mother
FORKS, her faith and prayers, saved
IS from sin. Years have filed great
riffs over between her and US, but
hey have not hidden from our sight
be glory Of her unselfish lovs.

Whether the democratic party
wins or Iooses I'm the state of Idaho
this fall they have at least a few
good things in their plaffrom which /.
ifthey are successful. will be of great
benefit TO the farmers of Nczperce
prairie SO far as these particular
planks are concerned, providing the
republican party does not incorporate
the same or similar plank in their
platform. The following is one of
the planks adoptedwhich is of especial
interest to each and every farmer on
this prairie,
"We favor the enactment of a law
by our next state Legislature provid-
ing for state railroad and ware
house commission and the enactment
Of an adequate Law prohibiting and
preventing the discrimination by any
railroad or transportation company
against any person or corporation in
the granting Of warehouse facil-
tiles"
The Herald has been working for
a Law covering this during the past
year and will continue this fight
until some relief has been granted.
When it comes to paying more for
freight hauled on a railroad than it
will cost, or did cost, to haul it by
wagons before the railroad was
built, it is time something was being
done; The people of this prairie
now have to pay five cents mile to
ride on a freight train which fire.
quently makes the rapid time of SIX
miles an hour, provided they do not
have too much local freight to unload,
yet this same fast train is allowed
to haul our mail to this section and it |
does not reach Us until about twelve
hours later than ii formerly did when |
carried by stage and horseback.
When an application is made for a
warehouse site the applicant has no
assurance whatever that he will
succeed in getting it granted no
matter how worthy be may be and
what demand there might be for
him to build warehouse, provided
be is not in a combine with the big
mogul who claims to represent the
Northern Pacific railroad in this
state and who, by his procedure, is
doing more to force railroad and
commission in this state
than any other man or corporation.
With his aid It is a forgone conclu-
sion that this county will declare
for the above or similar plank this ,
5all, and then some of our grievances ,
will at least be heard.

Biz Crops In Idaho.

Farmers of Nezperce prairie are
being congratulated upon the grain
crop which their lands will turn cut
this season. One of the leading
grain insurance agents of the coast
declaresin bis opinion that the prairie
will raise the largest crop. for It's
acreage, of any portion Of Idaho.
In this estimate the statement 10
made that the yield this year will
surpass that of the famous Palouse
lands by fully rs per cent, and will
establish new record for grain pro-
duction.
In the camas prairie region the
same may be said. Near Tolo
threshers have just started in wheat
fields averaging from so to as high
az 65 bushels TO the acre, and there
are number OF fields that are giving
the higher yield.
An area aggregating los square
niles in the heart of this grain was
aid waste by hail late In June, and
aad this damage not occurred, the
farmers claim they could present a
record never equaled in the north
xest.--Tuesday's Review.

An interesting fight is developing
between Portland, Tacoma, Seattle
and Spokane since the opening of the
Lewiston-Raparia road for the trade
from this section of Idaho and it
promises to be of much importance
to all this upper country. Before
the opening of this road it vas
necessary to transfer all freight that
vent down the river from the train
to the boat and then back to the
train again at Raparia and if IT was
hauled up the hill through the
Palouse country it was then In the
territory Belonging to Spokane and
the Washington cities, and Portland
did not get an even break. But

GUARD DRUINED TOMB Colony Students Patrol Der zelius Chapter House Till
 Midnight.
SAVE BOOKS AND RECORDS
Nothing But the Shell of the Hand- some Shelf. Society Building
 Remains.

Until midnight last night the mem Colony on Hillhouse avenue, in re- lays guarded the chapter house on Prospect street, which was practical ly destroyed by fire yesterday. The temperature was almost at zero last evening, but the students walked tomb keeping people from trying to look in. Early in the evening stu dents went up Prospect street to look at the ruins, but none were allowed to see the inside and by 10 o'clock the watchers were alone.
 Probably 1t was a sentimental req son rather than anything else Which kept the Shelf watchers there. for late in the afternoon the doors were fixed so that they could be locked by pad locks, and the property was safe from intrusion
 Through the afternoon the mem bers of Berzelus and workmen whom they hired carried the books and other documents from the ruined tomb to The Colony, where they will be kept until the chapter house is rebuilt The workmen went in and out the house apparently not awed by what they saw.
 The inside of the house is total loss and the roof is burned through and destroyed. The costly easy chairs are seen soaked and burned and will never he able to he used again En- tire new inside fittings will be neces- sary and as nothing but the shell of the building is left it will take several thousand dollars to repair the prop erty.
 l The fire broke out at 4:30 yesterday ! morning and when the firemen arriv- | ed and pushed in the doors with a hattering ram the inside was almost eaten by the flames. It was imposs- ble to do any work inside so the at l tention of the department was turned to saving the neighboring houses. The home of Seth D. Bingham and Charles | l.. Kirschner on one side and that of
 Mir. and Mrs. John Foley and Mrs
 Raymond White on the other were covered with icy water and as fast as
 the sparks from the burning building
 landed they were extinguished.
