Hoss Are Worth SIPS.

Not satisfied with the grain dealers
causing the farmers of Camas Prairie
to feel like flight of rockets over the
high prices offered for wheat and bar
ley last week, the local hog merchants
got busy the fore part of this week
and set off the fireworks again by
offering s7.25 per hundred for fat
hogs, and we understand some even
offered as high as 81, so for certain
lunches but these were exceptional
offers, Hogs were freely contracted
however, at the price of SIPS per
hundred, which is the highest notch
reached by the hog market, with one
exception, in this vicinity in the past
hve or SIX years.

SINCE the decision of the supreme
court, taking the settlement of Indian
estates out of the district court and
placing them in the u. S. circuit
court, the matter of the legality of In
dian second and third marriages under
the state laws will come up for testing
at the coming term of the federal
court at Moscow this month. There
are number of allotment cases up
for settlement where Indians have
left their first wives and taken up with
the second and even third wife, and
the question of which wife is to be
recognized by the law must be settled
and as it cannot well be done as Sol

Asotin, on the Idaho side of the river,
is one of the most extensive cement
rock deposits in the United States.
1t belongs to the West Coast Portland
Cement Co. of Seattle, and will be-
come immensely valuable. A recent

had been carrying this cement over
the country in huge pail and in en-
deavoring to cross the Snake river
dropped the contents, letting all fall
on this spot. Government chemists
who have entered into a close and
critical examination say the state of

ACCORDING to the best railroad
authorities this year of 1909 promises
to be the greatest in railroad construc-
ton known in the history of the u.
S., and aside from the statements of
those learned constructionists, the
common person who reads the news
papers daily would make just such
guess. ]. ]. Hill has announced some
time ago that FIVE billions of cold cash
should be expended within the next
few years on railroad construction and
equipment, that business, actually de-
mands it. The statement is made
that Mexico is to build 5000 miles,
Canada 200 miles and the United
States perhaps as much as the other
two countries combined. In the
Southern states at least IS new rail-
roab projects have been announced
this season. The tendency now is to
build more expensive, easier grade,
more direct and more durable rail-
roads The line of 377 miles to be
opened May 3 between Spokane,
Portland and Seattle is one of the
most costly in the world, some of it
being built at an expense of half a
million dollars a mile. The Pacific
Northwest is now the scene of some
OF the most important activities of
present railroad expansion, as several
OF the great captains of railroad indus
try are here engaged in a rivalry of
Development of Unprecedented mag
nitude. Railroad expansion means
agricultural and commercial expansion
with the increase of national power
which comes from such growth.

Among the bad things which

found in Louisville are the condi-

and cleanest bakeries | ever saw.
Screens should be used in your
meat markets. | went into some
markets and saw swarms of flies,
merchants splitting on the floors.
The meat baskets are unclean and
unsanitary. In one market | Wis
tied filth was supreme. Huge
piles of filthy sawdust were no
ticed,
The party visited two bakeries
that were simply awful, and men
were splitting on the floor, and the
bread trays were mouldy. In one
bakery a filthy toilet was located
where the bread was taken out of
the ovens. She said they told her
in one bakery that they washed
the floor once a year."
The mere knowledge that such
repulsive and injurious conditions
exist ought to be sufficient in itself
to insure their immediate rectiti-
cation. Courier journal.
