TNHE Prince Of Slavna's answer to
the intimation OF his father's
wishes was dutiful, courteous
and discreetly diplomatic. The
prince was much occupied with his
drills and other occupations. He avail
ed himself Of Max Won Hoilbrandt's
practicsd pen. The guSst was glad TO
do his royal host this favor.
They talked over the sense of the re-
ply. Max then drafted It. The prince
did no more than amend certain ex-
pressions which the young diplomatist
had used. Max wrote that the prince
cordially sympathized with the kings
wishes; the prince amended to the ef-
feet that he thoroughly understood
them. Max wrote that the prince was
prepared cordially and energetically to
cooperate In their realization; the
prince preferred to be prepared to con-
slider them in benevolent spirit. Max
suggested that two or three months
postponement Of ths suggested journey
would not In itself be fatal; the prince
insisted that such delay was essential

on foot to insure his being welcomed

that the later date would have an in

WE take pleasure in ANNOUNCE
ing to our patrons and friends
that commencing next week The
Republican will be issued us an
eight-page all home print semi
weekly. Our publication days
hereafter will be Wednesday
and Saturdays, and except in
cases Of accident or unavoidable
delay our subscribers will find
their papers in the post office
the first thing in the morning
of these days. We make this
change with the firm belief that
the time is now ripe for it. 1t
is scarcely six months since this
paper was increased to its pres
ent size, yet the demand for
space in the paper has so in.
creased that it has again be-
come necessary to enlarge. We
feel sure that the subscribers
will enjoy getting two papers
each week instead Of one, and
that they will be glad to get the
much fresher news that we will
be able to furnish them. Our
advertisers will also appreciate,
we believe, the improved service
that we have to offer, and will
be quick to take advantage Of
this more frequent opportunity
to offer their bargains to Noun
tain Home buyers. Both the
advertisers and subscribers will
welcome this change the more
heartily when we assure them
that this improvement will cause
little if any change in the cost
to them. For the present, the
subscription price of The Re-
publican will be, as before, $500
per year in advance, and we will
accept subscriptions at that
price until May lst, 1908. AT
ter that date we may be COM
PEELED to increase the price
slightly. All advertising con-
tracts now in force will be car
ried out without any additional
charge for the increase in SER
vice. All new business, how
ever, will be taken at the new
scale OF prices, of which our pa
irons will be advised upon APP
plication at this office.
We trust that the people of
Mountain Home and Elmore
county generally will appreciate
our efforts to give this locality a
newspaper that is strictly first
class and up-to-date, and will be
liberal in their support Of the
enterprise.

WITH the horrors Of the dis
aster at Cleveland fresh in their
minds, it is but natural that peo-
pie all over the land should con-
slider seriously at this time the
danger of fire in public buildings
where large number of people
are congregated, and it is not at
all surprising that many of our
citizens now come out in sharp
criticism OF the present unsafe
condition of our school house
and opera house. We are in
formed that the board now has
under consideration plans for
safety appliances for the better
protection of the school chill
dren and are glad that this body
is fully alive to the gravity of
the situatinn. Superintendent
Warner informs us that that the
teachers and the pupils respond
promptly and in quite orderly
manner when the fire call is
sounded, and that i'll u recent
test the entire building was
emptied in seventy seconds. He
feels satisfied that he could save
the whole school in case a fire
should start, but thinks that
some fire escapes should be pro-
vided for the protection OF the
high school.

This valley is the greatest improved
in the northwest, but one thing is so
remarkable, the valley has progressed

He has gone back to South Dakota

will return to Wenatcheo the first of
March to invest and make this his

The vote at the city election yes
terday was very light, only about
half of the registered voters awaiting
themselves of the opportunity to vote.
Sam Sumner received 329 votes for
city clerk, the highest vote cast. He
had no opposition, and as there
should have been between 700 and
500 votes cast, this indicates that
only about half of the voters remem-
bered that it was election day.
The only contest was for council
men for the two-year term. Tt
successful ones were Terry Ross, J. ri

question as to whether or not We

DRYS WIN E[EC-
TON At CASHMERE
SALOONS LOST OUT IN ELEC-
TION AT CASHMERE YESTER.
DEFINED.

The "Drys" won out in the cleo
ton at Cashmere yesterday. The
issue was clearly defined as to sa-
looms or no saloons.
There was no contest on the head
of the ticket. G. A. Huston was
elected mayor and c. M. Banker
treasurer.
| E. H. Schmitten, nominated by
the "Drys' and endorsed by the
Vets for the short term, received
$50 votes.
l.. West and Geo. n. Johnson, both
drys, received As and Al votes re-
spectively.
|. E. Delong and l.. c. Halverty,
both Vets and defeated, received A
and 43 votes.
The two holdover councilmen, H.
]. Oliver and J. M. Francisco, are
both opposed to saloons. The cleo
ton clearly shows that for the COM
ing year anyway Cashmere will be
a dry town. There are two saloons
there and Cashmere has had colsid-
cradle trouble there recently as the
result of too much booze and the
citizens have taken very effective
vengeance on the saloons.

week from Grants Pass, Oregon, had
novel experience in Seattle last Sat

.. Z. Taggart met a young man
apparently in distress over the death
of relative yesterday a few minutes
after he arrived in Seattle from
Grants Pass, Ore. Taggart intended
going TO Wenatchee, but his plans
have been temporarily changed The
money he intended to use on his trip
to Wenatchee he advanced to the
young man, who incidentally had a
$500 bill that a supposed expressman
couldn't change

but I am now sure l am very green"
Taggart says he had been walking
about the depot waiting for the next
train to Wenatchee when he noticed
a young man there watching him
closely. Taggart suspected nothing
when the young man entered in con-
versation with him.
The stranger explained that his

he was taking his body home. After
learning that Taggart was bound for

THE EXCURSION TRAIN.

The apple show committee having
in charge the excursion was given
the promise that the Great North
ern would side-track the excursion
train here Thursday night not later
than $50, permitting those having
berths to go to bed early in the eve
ming. The committee was notified
this morning that the train would
be made up at Leavenworth and
would not reach here until about
1890 and would remain until H.
when it would leave for Spokane
This new arrangement is not giving
satisfaction, but it seems to be the
best that can be done.
