| situation and have been goaded into an
| extreme position by il-advised statements
| of English editors Of prominent Indian
newspapers There is no danger Of IAN

10 the Noble Grand and Brothers
of Greenbrier Lodge, No. SO,
l. O. o. F., Greenbrier, Ark. !:
We, your committee appointed
to draft suitable resolutions on the
death of Our beloved brother, John
]. Dickens, who departed this life
on the second day of October, 1908,
beg to submit the following:
Whereas, God, in His wisdom
has seen fit to call from Our noble
order our esteemed and faithful
brother, John J. Dickens, at the
age of seventy years, nine months
and twenty-six days He was
made an Odd Fellow on the Goth
day of November, 1887. He was
one of the charter members of this
lodge, having been instrumental
in its organization and ever re-
NAMED one of its strongest sup
ports, having on several occasions
rendered valuable aid to this lodge.
He was the first noble grand of
this lodge, having been elected at
its organization November 90,
1887. He has with credit filled
every office of this lodge, devoting
his time and influence to further
the cause of Odd Fellowship. Bro.
Dickens was a member of Mace
donia Baptist Church, located at
Greenbrier, Ark. He was kind
husband, a loving father and one
of our best citizens.
Be it resolved: That in the death
of our worthy brother, John J.
Dickens, Our lodge has lost one of
its oldest and best members, the
church devoted and faithful men,
Der, the wife a loving husband,
the children a loving father, and
the town and community a most
valuable citizen; be it further re-
solved: That we bow in humble
submission to the will of Him who
doeth all things we'll, trusting in
God and hoping to have his ten
der mercies toward US, waiting pa
tiently for the time when we shall
be called up to His heavenly home,
where there is no more parting, no
more tears, no more pain or death,
but an everlasting, never-ending
day of joy, peace and Hiss.
To the bereaved family we ex-
tend our heartfelt sympathy, and
stand ready to aid them in the
hour of distress.
Respectfully submitted,
w. M. Lyon,
w. B. Love,
E. T. Williams,

Whereas: The all-wise Creator
of all things saw fit, in His all-wise
providence, to remove from our
ranks our brother, A. G. Fiddler,
aged 81 years, on the goth day of

Whereas: In his death the coun-

PLENTY OF EXER-
else NECESSARY

Plenty of regular exercise must
be taken in order to keep the body
in a healthy condition. Any ex-
cessive or unusual exertion, how
ever, is sure to cause stiffness and
soreness of the muscles and joints.
To counteract this effect there
is nothing better thar Sloan's Lin
iment. Lay it on lightly where
the muscles have been strained; it
it requires no rubbing for it pene-
trates right to the bone, relieves
any congestion and Inflammation
and makes the muscles elastic and
plant.
Sloan's Liniment is a great boon
to athletes, for it not only relieves
pain and stiffness, but it is an ex-
celfent remedy for sprains, cuts
bruises and cramps.
Mr.. J. F. Price c. Tuscumbia,
Ala, writes;-"I am an engineer
on the Southern Road from Chat
tanooga to Memphis. Tenn. The
continued elevation of my arm up
on the throttle gives it a sore feel
ing when on long journey, and
there is nothing that will take the
soreness out like Sloan's Liniment,
and I keep bottle in my grip
always. "

An Exam pie

An Example
The California Fruit Growers
Association, working in conjunc.
ton with the Union Pacific Rail
way, determined upon a publicity
campaign to get people to bny
oranges. These growers of oranges
wanted an enlarged market, so
together they bought newspaper
space to tell Iowans of California
oranges. The first shipment of
oranges comprized full train and
the fruit found ready market.
A second train of twenty five
cars brought more than the market
price. Iowans this year increased
their consumption of oranges by
70 per cent over any year preced.
ing. The people were satisfied
with the fruit, the Union Pacific
was satisfied with it's returns from
the freight charges, and the grow
ers well pleased with the prices
which the fruit brought. All
three got their moneys worth and

The Game Season.

Sage hens are the only game
birds that can be lawfully killed
before August. 10Th. Until that
date grouse have license to live,
although it is to be expected that
the majority of hunters connot tel
the difference this time Of the
year. But where sage hens are to
be found there is always a scar
city of grouse and there is no cx-
cuse for killing one for the other.
The following information is
printed to serve as guide to
hunters who anticipate engaging in
the sport. The game law will be
rigidly enforced this year and
many deputy wardens will be out
in the guise of hunters, with in
structions to lay for certain par
ties who are "booked." 1t would
be well to kill only that species
that can be lawfully taken, less
they meet with an experience that
will prove an everlasting lesson.

TAFT APPROVED

1.-The anti,injunction plank as
finally adopted was written by the
friends of William II. Taft on the
subcommittee on resolutions and
was approved by the secretary
and president before it was pro-
posed as a substitute for the
original plank on this subject. In
fact, every plank and practically
every sentence in the republican
platform as finally adopted was
approved by the secretary, although
those portions referring particu-
larly to the work of the administra-
ton were not submitted to the
president Even the unimportant
verbal changes between the draft
as published before the convention
and as finally adopted was approx
ed by the convention, were made
with the secretary's knowledge be-
fore the tentative draft was sub.
mitted to the committee"
This statement was made by
Wade Ellis, attorney general Of
Ohio, who is said to have written
the draft of the republican plat.

Hon. Jim Schoolcraft Sherman,
Taft's running mate, has been an
Office holder for twenty-four years
and has been an Office seeker since
his youth. When he became
chairman of the republican con-
gressional committee in 1906, he
earned the sobriquet "Send- Your
Dollar JIM" or dollar JIM" as
the solicitor and recipient of dollar
contributions. 1t is significant
that he had the fight of his life in
that same campaign to retain his
own seat by reason of a bitter
fight against him in his own party
and without. The labor vote was
especially bitter against him.

for the presidency are now revers-
ed. Twelve years ago, when
Bryan was first nominated, there
were two strong factions against
him.
civilian Mckinley was one Of
the most popular men of the coun-
try. The democracy was only a
shadow, as result of Cleveland's
administration. In spite of these
conditions Bryan rolled up the
largest popular vote ever given a
presidential candidate. He was
opposed at the next election by
war candidate, not one of which
has ever been defeated. Then
with loyal spirit, he put aside the
nomination and worked faithfully
for the unknown Parker, the
party choice, though knowing that
victory was impossible.
"But now conditions are re-
versed. The republicans are
slowly recovering from severe
financial panic. They have nom
mated the weakest candidate of
the party. The church and the
christian element cannot support
such a man. Taft, if elected,
would be the first president to deny
the divinity of Christ. WHAT
is more, his conduct as governor
of the Philippine islands was a
contradiction to government
principles and a breach of political
trust"

Fairs Air Ship

Two and a half tons OF sulphuric
acid has been shipped to Manag-
err Cosgrove for the big air ship,
which will go up daily at the
Spokane Fair next fall. The con-
signment came by freight and will
be stored at the Fair grounds.
Nothing but pure hydrogen gas
is used by Chas. J. Stobel, the
operator of the airship, to initiate
the big gas bag. Many of the
baloonists use oxygen gas, but the
best results are obtained in pure
hydrogen by airship men.
To collect the hydrogen the
sulphuric acid is poured into a
glass tank in which is desposited
scrap iron and the fumes or
hydrogen gas is caught in a funnel
and transferred to the gas bag.

A prominent minister of Spring.

Taft as the nominee for his party
for the presidency, and the letter
to the Rocky Mountain News, OF
Denver, says:
DIR. J. w. Stewart, pastor OF

long Republican, believes that his
party has named the weakest posi-
BILE candidate, and that the nomi-
nation of Bryan by the democrats
has made republican defeat newt
able. When asked for the ground
of his belief DIR. Stewart said:
Taft is in my opinion, the
weakest candidate ever nominated
by a republican convention. He
is weak with the negroes, the
laboring men, and especially weak
with the temperance people. His
campagne functions are an open
insult to right minded people. He
disgraced himself in recen,
speech on General Grant, when
before Grants tomb and in thu
presence of the dead General,
son, he recalled his drinking
episodes. Such a man is not to bt

COUNTYS WORTH.
Valuations of Idaho County
Taken from Assessors Books.
INCREASED VALUE $4,000
Has More Hogs Than any
County IN the State Of Idaho

The following facts, CLEANED
from the records of Assessor
Nash's office, are of sufficient i'm
portance, we believe to warran
their publication.
While Idaho county contains
over 6,9l7,92 acres, making it
not only the largest county in the
state but also the largest county
in the United States, it must be
remembered that large portion
of its area is within the confines
of the forest reserve. There are
316, $50 acres of patented land in
the county. Within the bound
aries may be found almost any
climate one may desire. From
the Hump and Thunder Mountain
country where snow is present
nine months out of the year, one
can descend to the Salmon river
country with it's semi-tropical cline
and then upon the CaDas Prairie
with mild climate the entire
year around. Rich mines on one
hand, wheat and grain on the
other, here vast forests, there the
peach, pear and other fruits,
yonder countless cattle graising
peacefully, truly a country
of various resources, some
thing for every industrious home
seeking man no matter what his
tastes and inclination. may be.
The total amount of assessed
property of this country in 1908 is
S2, 800, 6S7; last year the amount
was SO, 900, Ala, it will be seen by
comparing these figures that the
easement has increased over ninty-
one thousand dollars. The pres
ent worth of the county as CLASH
fed on the easement rolls is as
