CHINA WEDDING.

The Goth marriage annivers-
ary, or China Wedding, of Post
master Frank A. Reed and wife,
of Challis, was observed at the
pleasant home of Attorney and
Mrs. L. H. Johnston, on Friday
night last, May 6th. 1903.
Life, with all its stern realities,
occasionally breaks out in halo
of light and joy so resplendent

tance and We dwell in the realms
of ecstacy for for a time. Per-

again reunited in marriage. The
march was played by

PROCLAMATION.
To the Residents of the Village
of Challis

10 the residents OF the Village
of Challis
Greeting:-The annual period
for cleaning the streets and al
leys and the premises of the res
idents of Challis having arrived,
hereby proclaim and set apart
Wednesday, May Goth, 1908, as a
day for all residents to drop their
business cares and join in an
united movement in cleaning up
around the premises of all resi-
dents, in the yards, vacant lots,
on the streets and alleys adjac-
ent thereto.
This movement is in accord
ance with custom followed by
many of the towns in Idaho, and
is found to be the most effective
and economical way of keeping a
town or city in a healthful con-
dition--the work of cleaning up
the rubbish all being done at
once in this manner.
l therefore urge all residents
to concur with the Village Ceun-
Gil and when the day arrives, L
hope to see ever resident out

1t seems high time that the
elder and wiser citizens take

duced by sewage does xot in the

Even from a business stand |
point water works would be of
material interest to every prop

reason than diminishing the in
surance rate. 1t is our opinion
that no reliable insurance com
pany would insure a BUSINESS
house in town for a less premium
than the face value of the policy,

GREAT RISK FOR BUSINESS
Election of Bryan Fraught with Too
Many Uncertainties.
VIEWS OF EDMUND wETMoRE
At Least PnssiveIy Adheres 10 all His
Old Isms which Previously
Causcd the Country to
Reject Him.

NEW YORK. Oct. 22.-(Special.)-A Wig
orous statement of the risks to business
enterprise which would attend an admins
tratlon headed by Mr. Bryan, was made
today to your correspondent by Mr. Ed
mund Wetmore, the i5srh.S .Ssrt of. the New
York Bar association. 'Mr. Wetmore's rels-
tiops have been such as to- give special
weight 10 his views on the effects Of a
Bryan administration on confidence and
the employment Of labor. He said:
THE present campaign is no less impor-
tant in many ways than that of 1896, al
though it has thus far been less exciting
consider the election of Mr. Bryan just
as injurious to the stability of business
and to confidence in the future as It would
have been twelve years ago. except that
the danger may now be described, perhaps,
as passive rather than active. Mr.. Bryan
is refraining from violently advocating
some Of the most Objectionable of his views.
This may imply that he will not take
active steps to put them in operation, but
in my opinion 1t does not imply that
he will not act upon them If
the opportunity arises. So long the
country was sailing in smooth waters we
might get nothing but defamation and
inflammatory messages from Mr.. Bryan,
put II depression ana distress tollowed his
election, as would very likely be the case,
then l fear we should find him offering
his old remedies for such conditions. Even
granting that he would not again urge the
free coinage of silver, I consider his other
remedies for business depression and finan-
cial stringency to be equally dangerous.
In the democratic platform of 1900 1t was
demanded that national bank notes should
/ ha aae
! or silver certificates can be substituted for
/ them In this plank Mr.. Bryan seems To
have thrown off the mask of mock impair
tiality between gold and silver, which was
the stock in trade OF the bimetallsts. Gold
