appeal to when the laws have been
violatsd. If We had commission
anyone who had been discriminate
ed against by the railroad company
could appeal at once to them and
could be heard withoutit costing him
but little, but no matter what kind
of regulations or laws that We might
make, without a commission the
average farmer and the majority of
complaints would not be heard on
account of the time and costs it
would take for a hearing before the
courts. A railroad commission would
not in any way delay railroad build
ing as some have suggested but on
the other hand it would encourage
the building of many more branch
lines by smaller companies through
out the state by giving them protec-
ton against the larger corporations.
The larger transportation companies
would not in any way be injured as
long as they were conducting their
business on a fair and equitable
basis and if they don't do this, they
should be treated the same as any
one else.

The benefits derived from the or
ganization of the farmers on Nez-
perez prairie last winter are be-
comming more evident every day.
While the grain crop is short this
year over the entire country which
always advances the price of grain
every where, yet the difference in
the price here and other places in
the northwest is not so much as it
has been in past years, the difference
this year being but little more than
the freight between the different
points. At this time last year barley
was quoted at 20 cents per hundred
more in Chicago than it is at the
present time, yet the prices being
paid here are about IS or 20 cents
better than they were the correspond
ing time last season. While the
farmer may not yet be getting what
he is entitled to for his grain and
the organization of the farmers may
not deserve full credit for the cause
of the less difference in the prices
here and other points in the north
west, no one will doubt that the
Farmers Cooperative Union and
the Greer Rochdale Company have
played very important part in adj
vancing the price of grain to some
thing near what it should be and
maintaining it at that point so far
during the season. The fact that
this much has been accomplished
only suggests what they may accom-
plish in the future and the need of a
still closer union and a more thorough
organization. Just as long as these
organizations continue the prices Of
grain will remain some where near
an equal with the prices at other
points in the northwest but let these
organizations cease to exist and the
result would be that the same old
will soon return.

shape in a short time. With the
great growth of the union there will
be large and increasing field for
subscriptions. and as it is proposed
to make the publication of general
farm interest. it will undoubtedly
meet with immediate favor. The
details are not yet worked out, but
it is likely that Pullman will be the
publication point. the location of the
experiment station here. and the
great amount of material available
at the college for farm journal be-
ing factors that favor this as the
publishing center.

The county platforms of the polit-
ical parties usually have but little
significance attached to them on the
questions of Legislation which must
be enacted by the state legislature.
But this year Senator Hepburn is
quoted as advising the different
counties to take up aud put in their
platform what they think is of local
interest. The Herald doubts the
wisdom of such a move and fails to
see how any good can be accom-
plishcd in this way after the state
convention has refused to incorpor-
ate such things in their platform,
unless it is done for the sole purpose
of trying to gain votes which is too
often what platforms are made for
instead of trying to actually do
some good for the people, but in
view of Senator Heyburn's advice
more interest than usual was taken
in the county platform of this county.
In the platform adopted at Lewis
ton last Monday by the republican
county convention, they failed to
mention anything about direct
primary law which is being demand
ed by great number of the voters
throughout the county, regardless Of
politics. But the most important
measure that the people of the en-
tire prairie and the county are de-
handing is a railroad and ware
house commission with the proper
power to regulate and equalize busi-
ness that comes under this head.
On this important question the plat
form says: 1--WE favor an admend-
ment to the grain and commission
Law by the next legislature 50 as to
make the same effective. We favor
specific grain, warehouse and rail-
road laws which will prohibit and
prevent any railroad corporation or
transportation company from dis
eliminating against any person or
in the granting of ware
house sites and transportation
rights" As far as the grain COM
is concerned this may be
sufficient, but this plank evades and
ignores the one important part
without which the rest will be of
put little value, and that is the
railroad commission. We might
enact the best grain laws of any
state in the union but they would be
Of but little value unless We have
some laws regulating the transpor-
tation companies and some one to

had not seen the article In the news

Two days later the story of the vio-

romance very delicately touched upon.
The influence of perfumes upon the

DR.. Deane figured in the story as an
expert of the highest attachments who,
in association with the famous DE-.
Kendall, had penetrated the mystery
of an obscure and interesting case.
The gratitude of Miss Winthrop was
pictured In moving terms.
It was all true enough. Deane had
seen Miss Winthrop again at Kendall's
office, and the girl was far upon the
road to complete recovery. She had
confessed to Nine. Sylvestre her pass
ing fascination and the secret recep-
ton Of the violets from the French
man. All had been forgiven.
A few days later Nine. Sylvestre and
Miss Winthrop called upon Deane. and

DR.. Kendall was one Of those abso
htely healthy men whose mere pres
ence is a means Of sanitation-strong
" built and having the air of one who
lives much out Of doors. He greeted
Deane cordially, spoke affectionately
of Elsa. made some wise observations
on general topics and finally came
down to "shop talk"
1t appeared that he was expecting a
visit from very interesting patient, q

might fill fame's trumpet in the near
