ate and then suddenly the enemy was

With the breaking mp of the royal
party on board the Victoria and AL
bert, the king and queen returned to
town for a day, and after bidding good
by to Queen Alexandra, the king went
as the guest of Lord and Lady Ripon
to Studley Royal for the opening of the
shooting season.
After his shooting visits, the king
took up his residence at Balmoral cas-
tie where the queen and royal children
had preceded him, and the succeeding
weeks were spent in entertaining dis
tinguished guests and with shooting par
ties on the Balmoral estates.
The kings resumption Of residence at
Buckingham palace was marked by a

The Liberals are out for Kerr Har-

lead when he gave Mr.. Hardie dress

which, however, made the Socialist lead

have been so severe that even the labor

COTTONWOOD

We are having all kinds of weather
and conditions up here. Snow, rain
and mud.
Notwithstanding the roads are quite
muddy, the farmers are pouring into
our market any amount of grain, hogs,
hay and other produce.
Walter Brockman of the Salmon
river country, shipped fifty-two cows
and one hundred and four steers from
this station, Tuesday morning, to the
Union stock yards at Portland, Ore
gon.
DR.. Busey, formerly of Harpster,
Idaho, has recently located in our
burg, with Offices in the Goldstone
block. This makes four physicians in
Cottonwood, but there is room enough
for all.
The Simon Brothers have moved
their meat-market building on to their
lot between the phone Office and the
Mathiesen building SO as to make
room for brick building which they
are about to erect where the frame
building stood.
John Hoene started about two
weeks ago to rush up his fine large
brick store building, but has been re-
tarded by reason of frost and stormy
weather. .e- s.
H. H. Lenox has opened up real
estate and insurance office up stairs
in the Gladstone building and also
runs photograph gallery in the ad-
joining room.
The time for the local option cleo
ton is fast approaching and every one
seems to have fully made up his or
her mind as to how they shall vote.
With the experience Of our people the
past two years with boot-leggers and
blind tigers it is not likely that we
will again be afflicted with the present
method.
The electric light people have
moved their Office and headquarters
into the west end of the new Gold
stone store block, where they have
everything UP in fine shape.
Owing to weather conditions moth
ing will be done during the present
fall or winter on the putting up Of
the new brick school house, planned
and contemplated by our school direct
ors.
The Creelman building, formerly
occupied as confectionery, has beer
recently leased to some parties wht
intend putting in a moving picture
show, thus putting on metropolitan
airs.

blacksmith shop for the winter ant

OOn.
We have had so-called prohibition
in Idaho county for about 10 months.
Has it improved the morals of the
people? Has any benefit resulted from
the vote that made Idaho county
"dry9" The law has been tested by
actual experience and must stand or
fall upon its merits.
From some little knowledge of hui
man nature and from what / have
seen and observed, | have come to the
deliberate conclusion that high Ii
cense will reduce the number of drink
ing places, increase the revenues, de-
crease drunkenness AND DRINK
ING In THE HOMES, and enable
the authorities to control the business
better than it can be controlled under
prohibition.
"If you want a boy to have a
strong moral character, do not isolate
him, but teach him to come out I'M
scathed from temptation!
BLESSED is the man that endureth
temptation, for when he is tried he
shall receive the crown of life, which
the Lord has promised to them that
love Him."
"The soul that is worth the homage
Of earth,
SIS the soul that resists DESIRE"
The present law which makes it a
crime to purchase intoxicating liquor
in Idaho, while permitting it to be
purchased in Spokane, and shipped
into Idaho, is indefensible from any
standpoint. 1t has not benefited any
one except the professional agitator.
Has it helped the youth of Grange
vile? Has it helped in any way the
thrice besotted sots who walked the
streets of Grangeville two years ago
and advocated prohibition?
1t has proven curse; it has kind
led hate and strife in communities
where harmony should prevail. Is the
boy who is kept away from temptation
until he is q better equipped to fight
the battle of life than the one who
has been taught to resist, to conquer
and to overcome temptation? If you
believe children should be trained tc
govern themselves vote against pro
hibition next Wednesday.
Respectfully, JAS. DeHaven.
