The other day the Grangeville
county commissioners granted the
petition asking that a local option
election be held in Idaho county to
settle the saloon question and Sc
iected August IS as the time for
holding the election. From present
indications the campaign viii be one
of the most active and interesting
in the history of Idaho county and
viii divide the county vote along en-
tirely new lines The political lines
have been swept aside by the call to
a protection Of business interests as
viewed by the liquor dealers and by
large per cent Of the business men
of Grangeville and Cottonwood. 1t
is stated this same opinion is preva-
lent throughout the county and the
results of the election are al this
time entirely matter Of speculation
Citizens who we're strongly favor
able TO the complete suppression Of
the liquor traffic are not supporting
the local option movement because
they are not in favor of such efforts
to suppress the liquor trade. The
view is generally entertained that
the passage of a local option issue
would not reduce the sale of intoxi-
cants but that it Would result in re-
sorts of much worse character than
The licensed szloons.
While the petitions are literally |
signed it is believed that many citi-
lens viii cast their vote against the
local option provision when the el-
.ction is held.-Ex.

ally, register on the three reserva-
iions and attend the Seattle exposi-
tion.
he travelled in various ways over
considerable portion Of Montana.
and some of Colorado, Wyoming,
Washington and Idaho. In the
course Of his journey he came upon
the Nezperce prairie and stopped for
a time in our little city.
Upon being asked his opinion of
this COZ TRY. he stated that the pan
Drama which spread before his gaze
as he drove across tae country from
voIlmer was one of the greatest sur
pFises be had met IN all the west.
He had expected TO lnd here the

Of what he called tillable land, mot
tied with patches of gravel and ak

traversed by him He was not pre-
pared to see our beautiful undulaiing
prairie, with its fields of wheat, oats,
barley and timothy, stretching for
miles in all directions, dotted thick
ly with fine farm homes and orchards
Of as excellent fruit as the sun ever
5edecked With the various rainbow
Iinss.
AT frst he simply gazed in speech

THINKS PORTLAND

]. F.. Mcdonald, the happy Scot
of Salem, has returned from an ex-
tended visit with his admirers n
Eugene, and while in that city
Mac" was overwhelmed with bids
for one of his pretty yellow tiger
kittens he has in this city. Mr.. Nc
Donald took in the big football gam
between Multnomah and Oregon Uni
versity last Saturday, and, being on
athlete himself, he enjoyed the lively
scramble immensely. According tc
Mr.. Mcdonald, the Eugene team. cap
turned the laurels by enlisting the
well-known YALE system This is
a turn of the game in which new med
are inserted in the game at inter
ais, ard the fatigued ones taken
out, making a fresh team through
out the game. The Portland aggre-
cation was much heavier, says Nc
Donald, and would have walloped
the Eugene lads, had not they exc
cuted some very tricky and clever
plays.

n..t for Rincuits.

A prominent teacher in one of the
Domestic Science schools in Mississippi
writes that she is using Cottolene in her
lessons with excellent results. She says !:
"For biscuits Cottolene is all that !
could be desired. The biscuits are nght
and fialxy, with none OF that disagreeapiS,
odor often found in foods shortened
with lard Cottolene is also an excel
lent medium for frying croquettes ana
doughnutR II gives them clean, crisp
brown crust"
Other noted experts, such as Mrs'
Rorer and Marion Harland, have gwen
similar testimony to the merits OF COT
tolene. II is a cooking fat made from
the finest vegetable oils; It gives better
results than lard, and It IS much more
wholesome and economical as well.
