Practical Benefits to the People.
No doubt the Democrats may inquire
as to what all this has to do with tho
welfare Of American citizens For
their enlightenment and information 1t
may be stated that, according to the
United States census Of 1900, the for
eign born population in the United
States at that time was 10,460,0S5. The
population, born Of foreign parentage
Zone or both parents having been born
In foreign countries) was 26,198, ,939,
or a total foreign population Of 49,.
659O24. The report Of the Tmmigra-
tion Commissioner by years since then
shows that 6,66S,656 have since come
to America, thus eking out the total
foreign population at the present time
to 46327, $50. This does not take any
note Of increase since 1900 in Ameri-
can.born children, one or both Of whose
parents are of foreign blood. Estimat-
ing that only one-half Of this number
p, ,663,840-write one letter to foreign
countries every two weeks, or 20 weeks
each year, we have 120,983, ,040 letters
written annually, which, at the present
rate Of 5 cents postage each, amounts
to an expenditure Of $6,499,152 annu-
ally. Under the present postal law
foreign correspondents may send let
ters to the United States collect" but
when they reach their destination the
recipient must pay double postage, Fig
uring the double postage ON the same
basis, the foreign population OF the
United States pays during each year,
for postage under the present system,
SIC, ,497, ,456. s 'fio'5'''gif3 4
Under the new and cheaper postal
charges advocated by the Republican
party, should the 2-cent rate become
universal, the foreign population In
the United States to their direct cor
respondents, would only pay $3,249, $40
annually for direct postage and $9,74s,-
728, for letters sent to them from for
eign countries collect" IN other
words, this Republican measure will
save the highly esteemed adopted citi-
zens of our country, and those born
here OF foreign parentage $12,998, ,254
annually, in the necessary correspond
ence with their loved ones abroad. Bur
perhaps the Democrats do not think
this is worth while
Some GIaring IncOnsistencies.
At present an American can send a
letter 5000 miles by land-say from
Mexico to Alaska-for 2 cents, but
must pay S cents for d letter Of half
the weight sent S,1OO miles to England.
An Engllshtnan pays s cents on a let
ter crossing the Atlantic, 3,10O miles,
and cents on one crossing the Indian
and South Pacific Oceans, 10000 miles,
to New Zealand. All this IS to Be rem
edied on October The first next thanks

INSTANT RELIEF Of
ITCHING HUMOR
Limbs Below the Knees Were Raw
Feet Too Swollen to Get Shoes
Sleep Completely Broken
by Intense Itching and Burning
Well in Two Days and Says That
CUTICURA Is AMONG
HIS HOUSEHOLD GODS

God bless the man who first COM
pounded Cuticura. Some two months
ago | had a humor break out on my
limbs below my knees. They came to
look like raw beefsteak. all red, and no
one knows how they itched and burned.
They were so swollen that l had 10
split my drawers open TO get them on
and could not get my shoes on for
week or more. / used five or six diff
ferent remedies and got no help, only
when applying them the burning was
worse and the itching less. One morning
/ remembered that had bit Of Cuti-
cura and tried IT, From the moment
II touched me the itching was gone and
! have not felt a bit Of it since. The
swelling wentdown and in two days had
my shoes on and was about as usual.
] only wish / had used the Cuticura
Remedies in the first Of my troubles.
They would have saved me two or
three weeks Of intense suffering. Dur
ing that time did not sleep an hour at
a time, but was up applying such
remedies as | had. Henceforth the
Cuticura Remedies will be among my
household gods, rest assured. George

BOISE TEAM MAY DIsBAND.
Financial Support Will Not Keep the
baseball Team In the League,

The days Of the Boise Baseball
club are numbered, says the Boise
Capital News. Both the manager and
the new board of directors see the
handwriting on the wall. Financial
ruin stares the local professionals in
the face and the fans, business men
and people In general will either
come to the teams aid or there will
be no more professional baseball in
Boise this season and the Senator's
viii be forced to drop out of the Big
Four league
If the club disbands, as is almost
certain unless a miracle happens, the
blow will be such a hard one to base
ball IN this city that fans will not re-
cover for several years to come.
There IS just one course left for
the local team and the management
to follow and that is to raise salary
money and raise 1t quick For that
reason a benefit game is to be given
in this city at Riverside park Sunday
afternoon, the gate receipts to go to
the Senator's and help pay the sal
aries which are honestly due them.
