WHITNEY VISITS eRANeEwLLE.

4. l.. Whitney, republican candidate
for secretary of state. was in our city
last week for couple of days inter-
viewing our citizens in the interest OF
his candidacy. Mr.. Whitney came
here from Lewiston where he con
ferred with some of the prominent
party leaders relative to his chances
for support at that place, and seemed
to be much encouraged with the re-
ception he met at the hands of the
Lewistonians. Notwithstanding the
fact that they have local candidate
there. He was cordially received by
the republicans at this place. and
left here with strong faith in his nom
Ination.
Mr.. Whitney makes a hobby, ii
might be said, Of the taxation propo-
sition. OF which he has evidently made
a thorough study, and as this comes
within the puryiew of the secretary
OF etate's office. he would be spec
tally qualified along this line of duty
10 make a most competent officer.
Mr.. Whitney is we'll known over the
state. having resided for many years
at Bonner's Ferry, at which time he.
served Kootenai county as sheriff,
and later was appointed warden of
the penitentiary by Gov. Gooding. He
was serving in this capacity at the
time OF the trial of the members OF
the Western Federation of Miners for
and came prominently before the pub
lie in his official capacity.

STATE SHOULD SELL LAND

The Troy News is still of the opin-
ion that the state should sell its land
to the Potlatch Lumber company. TIL
newspaper party went over every diff
ferent state holding that the com
pany wants to buy, with the excep-
vicinity of the Jericho mines. Very
little OF the $4,000 acres is fit for
agricultural purposes. There may be
day when some poor person may
have TO depend upon these hills to
exc out a living, but surely that day
is far off. The question then arises:
Would such a person be able to pay
the state $40 or more for this land?
The Potlatch Lumber company has
been perfectly fair in offering to buy
this land, and it was thought that
the people would jump at the propo-
sition for several different reasons.
In the first place it takes the ques-
ton of extension" out of politics; in
the second place the state will be
drawing interest where it never did
before; in the third place by selling
the land now the timber will be con
served for q long time to come. and
finally this land will be taxable at
once and both state and counties will
have large revenue from taxation oil
this land which would not be avail
able for more than twelve years yet
if not sold to the Potlatch Lumber
company News.

crease in sales of clothing, shoes
and the general necessities of life
since saloons were voted out. Fur
thermore and greater than either of
the foregoing you will please observe
that many of our good and valuable
citizens who formerly came to town
on Saturdays and filled up on vile
whisky and either went home more
like beast than man or landed in
the calaboose now come in, have
money to spend for the necessaries
and luxuries of life, buy their sup
plies and return home duly sober.
1t is true that quite number of
people drink liquor and will as long
as it is manufactured, but the per
cent is so small that there is no ar
gument whatever in favor of the
open saloon.
In the matter of public improve
ments our people can see for them
selves that conditions are at least
fifty per cent better than when we
had saloons. The county is nearer
out of debt than it has been for
years and the length OF our terms of
court have been decreased nearly
one-half.
Taking all these things, as we'll
as many others which we have not
mentioned into consideration, and
also the promise of the people that
saloons should not be voted in if
blind tigers were kept out we feel
sure that the people will rally to
the cause of temperance and right
by giving the saloon a knockout
blow at this election that will give
the opposition to understand that
the traffic will never be tolerated In

VOTE AGAINST LICENSE

Next Monday the people will be
called npon again to say by their
ballots whether or not license to
sell liquor in Randolph county for
the next two years shall be granted.
Relative to this issue we do not
anticipate that any reasonable argu-
ment whatever can be put forth
favoring the issuance of license.
Randolph county is DRY and has
been for almost four years. For a
few months after saloons were voted
out four years ago little liquor
was sold illegally in Pocahontas
aud probably in some of the other
towns of the county. But at the
first term of court held after the
county went dry, the offenders
were given to understand that the
business would not be tolerated in
this county any more; that the day
of blind tigers had passed and that
they must seek some other means of
livelihood. The county officials as
well as those of the district and the
Incorporated towns felt themselves in
duty bound to carry out the wishes
of the people in the matter. This
they have.done and as the people
have always said that if the officers
would do their duty by enforcing
the law they would always vote ono
license" The people are to be
trusted in matters Of this kind and
as the law has been enforced in the
past and will be in the future we
feel sure that the biggest majority
In the history of the county will be
rolled up favoring "No License" in
next Mondays election.
The towns and the county in gen
eral is prosperous, much more so
so than when we had saloons. Go
TO the merchants of the town in
which you live and ask them wbeth-
er or not business has been much
better since saloons We're voted out.
Ask the merchants of Pocahontas
to give you an estimate of the in
