AMALGAMATE SERVICE.
Turkish Parliament Upholds the Policy
of the Ministry.

cunstantinople. January s.-(special.)-
Tho Turkish parliament has upheld the
ministry by a vote of 1888 to s in their
policy of analgamating the British Lynch
company and the government steamer
services on the Tigris and Euphrates.
Since 1880 Messrs. Lynch Brothers have
shared with the Turkish government the
exclusive right to navigate the Tigris be-
tween Busra and Bagdad.
The only competitors of this line were
eight steamers of the Handled COM
pany, the profits of which went to the
private purse of the ex-Sultan.
Many attempts have been made to de-
prive the British company OF this con-
cession in order that other countries
might profit. This is regarded as more
or less a blow at German aspirations.

Ninety per cent of husbands love their
wives but they have a poor way of
showing 1t. An equal ratio Of wives love
their husbands but they are either not
permitted to show 1t or do not know
that they are in love.
The average husband feels that 1t Is
an evidence of weakness to continue tho
honeymoon indefinitely. BY degrees he
drops off the flowers and the boxes
of candy and the goodbye kiss at the
door or the caress in the evening when
he returns from his days labor.
He neglects the little things that used
to please the sweetheart and the bride
so much He possibly thinks that she
does not care for the small attentions
but she does. These little things weigh
large In the heart of a woman whose
world is love. But she is not going to
beg for them. No. no. Solicited affec-
ton is bitter and repulsive. It must
be given freely and graciously.
The wife may greet you with the same
loving smile. You may not realize 1t
but your neglect to bring the flowers,
to kiss the inviting cheek or fondle the
tired hand Is a dagger that sinks deep
in an aching. disappointed heart She
will not shox you the wound but 1t Is
there and no amount of second-handed
in the world will not heal the wound
caused from the neglect of one small
apparently insignificant attention.
Large offenses never breed divorces
1t is neglect of the simplest demands of
the heart.
The husband is usually responsible for
any arrangement OF matrimonial har-
mony.
Any man can win any true woman In
the world II he knows the secret and
after he has won her he can hold her
as his more than willing slave to the
end of eternity.
The wife who is conscious of a hus-
bands honest and earnest love retains
her youth and is beautiful down through
her old age. You can pick her out on
the streets True love not only sweet
ems the soul but mellows the features OF
the face.
Love Is the secret potion that produces
beauty IN ali things.
Love nodded worlds in boundless voids,
And man from lifeless sod;
Love paints the golden cheeks OF day
The rainbow CT the sky-borne spray,
And swings tho world toward God

Reapportionment.

One of the first questions with
which the approaching session OF con.
gress will he to determine when the
next apportiOnment of members OF
the house of representatives under
the recent census shall be made.
The constitution requires that a
reappOrtionment shall follow each
dpcennial enumeration Of the people,
and accordingly redistribution Of
seats In tie house membership has
taken place hitherto soon after the
conclusion Of each census.
Up to 1890 the reapportionment
was uniformly postponed until the
first session of the congress succeed
ing the enumeration but after the
18th census a change was made and
the reapportionment bills for the IL tn
and 18th censuses were brought IN
and passed in each Case during THE
short Session Of the current congress
Immediately following the census.
1t will rest with the approaching
session to determine whether IL shall
follow the old or the new precedent.
Politics may determine the choice.

Roosevelt f outs Old Guard.

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt,
leader of the progressive movement
in the republican party Of New York
state, was elected temporary chair
man of the state convention al
Saratoga, Sept. u, defeating Vice
President James S. Sherman, the
candidate Of the old guard" by a
vote of sos to AS. In his speech
Roosevelt bitterly assailed the bosses
and declared that the difference be-
tween boss and leader is that the
leader leads and the boss drives.
THE difference, he said, is that
the leader holds his place by firing
the conscience and appealing to the
reason of his fellow men, and the
boss holds his place by crooked and
underhand manipulation.
S.nator Elihu Root was named
permanent chairman the next day
and showed clearly the trend Of re
publicans toward the stand taken by
the progressives. He came GU
plainly in favor Of initiative and re
ferendum, and recall, and direc
nomination by the system Of primar
les, and even mentioned favorable
the direct election of senators. Roo
was introduced by Roosevelt.
The convention named Henry L
Stimson, placed in nomination b
Roosevelt, as its candidate for gov
ernor, this being one more victor
for the former president, who route
the old guard in every quarter.

THAT the republican state

THAT the republican state
ticket is, with scarcely an ex-
ception, probably the best that
has ever been placed before the
electorate of Idaho is due in no
small measure to the direct pri-
mary law. Despite it's trouble'
some second choice feature this
law has given the people a
better chance than they ever had
before to select the men they
want for candidates, and that
the voters made their choices in
diligently in nearly every
instance seems to be borne out
by the returns. 1t has been
argued against the direct pri-
mary law that the majority OF
the people have small opportun-
ity to become acquainted with
the candidates before the pri-
maries, but it can be answered
that they had infinitely Smaller
opportunity or none at all under
the old convention system. 1t
has also been said that but few
more than SO per cent OF the
voters attended the direct pri-
mary election; but under the old
system not more than 10 per
cent usually attended the pri-
maries at which delegates were
chosen. 1t needs a few amend
ments, but, in its general plan,
the new law is far ahead OF the
old system. Under its provisions
it is possible to eliminate incom-
petent officials and mere politi-
clans, and name tickets worthy
OF support.

There is more Catarrh 10 this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
asst few years was supposed to be in
durable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies. and by
constantly failing TO cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
