Nszpsree Pioneering the Way Out.

The people of Nezperce are put
ting forth degree of self-help and
selfsacrihce in organizing their own
transportation route that constitutes a
fine example for other people. More
than that, it is not a new or transient
emotion that may pass as quickly as
it came. Nezperce has had a peculiar
situation to overcome from the first
considering its admirable location
and the wonderfully fertile soil that
justified the gathering together of a
trade mart there. The first railroad
constructed to serve the Clearwater
agricultural interests was laid along
the water grade, leaving the produc-
ing country high above on either
side. Nezperce then set about to
build tramways and by this invest
ment became the shipping center for
a large country. Then the electric
project was preached and Nezperce
took hold of it earnestly, furnishing
a considerable sum-the total being
a private matter-towards promoting
and engineering the enterprise. The
steam railroad then decided to build
upon the prairie, to the discourage
ment of the electric road, but its
route being laid out so as to keep
away from the Clearwater roads
territory, again left Nezperce to one
side. Since then negotiations have
been pursued with one interest or
another towards securing branch
but the same reason that
las kept Lewiston back so long, the
ealous compacts of the TWO rival
'ailway systems, has prevented any
except such as was
agreed upon. Still I'M
and self-feliant, Nezperce
nd its immediate farming country
ave now gone to work on their own
ook to build their own railroad, and
re believe they viii build i, hard as
he task is. considering the present
ational depression. When built, 4
be transportation will abundantly
Istify the outlay, but this will not
e all or the best Of it. The deter
iination to get ahead and the lesson
j self help will have made the town,
be country and the people stronger
nd more successful than if the road
ad been built for them without effort
r cost. The state will owe a debt
{ gratitude to these pioneer railway
uilders who have persevered in
isir efforts rather than remain de- I
sndent and stagnant. The Nezperce ,
eople have been Of real service to
lie state and it is to be hoped they !
i'll reap the reward that their work {
, richly merits. Lewiston Tribune.

The Best PonItrY Food

Any article of food offered in markets
of today must show good results or it
cannot long hold the trade This is
especially true of Poultry Foods for with
the recent rapid development of the
poultry industry there have arisen many
so called foods which have been proven
nearly worthless. Pages Perfected
Poultry Food" has stood the test of
time. Rev. J. L. Dodge of Springfield,
Mass, expresses the very general senti-
ment in regard to this food in the follow
ing letter: 81 know that Pages Perfected
Poultry Food is ahead of anything ever
put on the market"
Anyone sending his address on a

American Woman In German Ewes.

American girls, whether born or
merely brought up in America, evil
dence the same independence of judg-
ment and the same complete self re-
lance. 1t is hard to say whether this
is the result of the education in the
public schools and colleges or In their
freedom from that condition of legal
and social subserviency to which the
gentler sex is doomed in older coun-
tries.-Max Won Brandt in Berlin
