The readers Of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure Ia all its stages, and that is catar"h. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires con- stitutioual treatment Halrs CatArrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces Of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do- ing it's work. The prcprietors have SO much faith in it's curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials,

\ BONA EIDE WAFER DEAL, YES, BUT
 WHAT KIND OF \ WATER DEALi

Any of those people that are not will ing and ready 10 put their money in the Water Works, the other people gre ready to take over their stock, at any tune that they think that 1t is not . bona tide deal. As to the opposition party Sll of those candidates can with draw any time they chose.-TaIpayers' Record.
 No body has thought tha: it is not a bona Hde deal. The ecly objection to this business is the manner in which the matter is approached. It may be all right, but you knoW thiS thing was tried once before, the city Of SksGway was asked to buy this same plant for E25 900 which private citizens have now purchased-only oue year later-tOr q price said to be sl5,OOO. This business of buying water works should be ap- preached with cool heads and all the details, the present condition of tbe pl,ut, the sum involved in necessary improvements and the COST OF OP- ERATION all gone into and these laid before the Taxpayer who must pay for it.
 I, Is impossible that thIS can be done  10 the heat of a political campaign and that au attempt should be mAde to commit the city to any such policy through the means of a platform that only states the proposition by indirec- tlou Is not calculated to enlist the con- adeuee ci the saHpayer-tO say she very least.

A Market Day.

Should Emmett have a monthly
market day? The question will be
up tonight at meeting of the
Commercial Club and the matter
discussed. Market days, although
a new proposition in this western
country. are very old stories in the
South, East and in Europe. EN-
NETT is in an ideal locality for a
market day. 1t will always be
center point and a good meeting
place for buyers and sellers as we'll
as for friends who live in opposite
directions. To make successful
market day every person with the
interest of their home town at
heart must boost the idea along and
get all their country friends to
come in and make a day of it.
The merchants will make special
sales for the day which means
saving to the purchaser. By all
means let Emmett have a market
lay and a good one at that.

BIG STRIKE At PEARL.
Twenty-One Foot Vein Found
in Checkmate.

The biggest vein of ore ever un.

trict was cut through by the miner.
working in the Checkmate tunneI
on Fridav. The. ore body is q
inches thick.
This immene6 ledge was en-
countered in thestunnel, which the
Hecla-Checkmate companyhas been
driving, at 1900 feet, and is what
is know as the Red Warrior ledge,
which the Whitman company is
working on ground adjoining on
the east. The Whitman. how
ever. has but II feet, and it is
thought by some that the Red
Warrior and Leviathan lodges come
together at this point. The lat
ter is considered the richest ore
body in the camp, assaying 5000
10 the ton wherever found. This
edge is about 1000 feet south of the
ledge.
The company is very much
,lated over the strike. Two weeks
!go they were SO disappointed and
discouraged over not finding this
edge, they had almost concluded
0 discontinue further oerations.
1ow, they are planning extensive
development Of the property.

dent of the First National bank of
Weiser, few weeks ago have not
given up their work. Their last
work has been a blackmaiIing
scheme in the shape of an anony
nous letter. This letter demanded
that $4,000, half gold and half
paper, be deposited at a certain
spot northeast of the Weiser Gene
terry before O'Clock Sunday even
ing, March %. In the event that
he refused he would either be shot
down in the streets or a bomb
would be planted that would blow
him to atoms. Detectives were at
once put to work OIL the case and

the designated place, but the man
failed to show up.

L. A. TIowbridge, member of
the firm of Trowbridge & Niver,
which furnished the funds for
the building of this great irriga-
tior project, is here from Chicago,
and will remain in this section un-
til the object for which his firm
has expended over half million
dollars has been attained-tlat of
reclaiming 10000 acres of the
finest soil tht lies out of doors. In
an interview with The Index, Mr..
Trowbridge was intensely en-
thusia site over the resources of soil
and climate of this portion of the
valley. He said he had within the
past few months visited nearly
every section of the Northwest, but
nowhere had he seen a country
more lavishly endowed by nature
than this. He also stated that his
company was preparing to begin an
active campaign of advertising the
advantages of this section as farm
ing and fruit growing country
among the farmers of the Middle
West, and lie predicted that within
a few years there will be 10000
people added to the territory trib-
utary to this city, and that electric
lines will traverse the bench as
well as the lower lands, and he is ,
not bit too enthusiastic or too op- ,
timistic.
Better buy piece of ground,
young man, while it is cheap. :
Land values will advance rapidly :
rom now on, and cheap land will {
;oon be thing of the past.

THE PESTS
Active Warefare Being Made
Against the Scale.

At no time in the history of frui
growing in this section has there
been such determined fight made
against fruit tree insects. Three
| spraying outfits have been busy
for several weeks squirting a mix
ture of lime and sulphur upon the
orchard trees. Very few orchards
have escaped. Even the little fam
lily orchards in town have not been
missed.
A. R. Ingalls, deputy horticul-
tural inspector, was in town this
week several days to urge those
who had not yet sprayed their trees
to get busy. The work of
prevention of the scale, he says,
should be done during the dormant
season, when strong remedies may
be used to destroy the spores with
out damaging the foliage. The
formula recommended and gener-
ally used is as follows.
Salt. 10 pounds
Sulphur -. 20 pounds |
Unslacked lime 40 pounds |
Water -. .......6 60 gallons
For a greater or less quantity the
ratio would be l pound salt, 2
pounds sulphur, pounds lime, to
every 6 gallons of water. Place
the 20 gallons of water in a boiler
and heat to boiling point. While
.hlsis being done place the lime,
sulphur and salt in barrel and
lack the lime, stirring we'll to
nix the ingredients thoroughly.
Then add enough water to reduce
t to thick liquid and strain into
boiler. Boil the mixture one and
half hours
When ready for use dilute with
nough water to make 60 gallons.
jse this spray hot. Salt is used
My to make the spray adhere to I
ne trees more perfectly. 1t may be {
ispensed with in fair weather. :

Celestial Marriage Not a Crime.

In an opinion handed down by
the supreme court Tuesday, it was
held that what is known as celestial
and patriarchal marriages to be
participated in the next world or
the future life cannot be crimes
here and in this life under civil
and self-made government. but
under such names or
designation, or any other name, a
man takes unto himself more than
one wife during any given period
Of time, such. marriages become big
