more than once-at least not if he has
anything else to do, and the kind of
settler Latah county wants has some
thing else to do.
This question of follow-up publicity
should have deep consideration from
the different commercial bodies of this
county. Mr.. MCGOWAN at Minneapolis
has a register of all inquirers at the
Latah county booth. When he returns
those names will be given to every
commercial organization in the county.
Then the follow-up work should be-

In some places this work has been
carried on with wonderful success by
using the local newspapers. The Star
Mirror believes that the local CONNER
clal clubs of Troy, Kendrick, Deary
Jul1aetta and Genesee would find their
local papers of splendid value in such
a campaign. Here in Moscow the use
fulness Of the Star Mirror has been so
demonstrated. President c. B. Green
is enthusiastic over Star-Mirror pub
licity, as he has experienced it. He
believes no better investment of a like

he sent the Daily Star-Mirror to
friends in the east. The Garfield Land
company has had a similar experience.
and one which added several families
to the population of the county.
The local paper reflects the life of
a community and it's spirit, shows it's
interests and reports it's occupations. |
Those are the things that an intending
settler wants to know. And certainly
the life and the opportunities in Latah
county are attractive enough to bring
him here when once they are presented
to him.

SO successful was Holden's idea O
teaching agriculture direct to the mer
most interested, that within ten years
he has increased the wealth of his
state by $30,000,OO0. And after that
record, it seems, the state of Iowa
did not feel that it could afford to pay
such man enough to keep him in it's
service.
1t may be that Professor Holden's
new position will broaden his sphere
of activity 1t may be that his work
will now be, as is proposed, of national
character, but it is hardly likely that
it will do so much for the common
good as that which he has done, for the
harvester trust has never been consid-
cred exactly as an eelemosynary in
stitution
And of course the state of Iowa will
lose It's a short-sighted policy that
keeps a state from paying living and
comfortable wage to a servant who can
add 100000 per year to it's wealth.
1t is a poor economy which permits
the private good of corporation to
attract the services of such a man
from the common good of the com
Iowa will suffer, of course, in losing
the services of such a man.
There is lesson in that for Idaho.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-In reply to
the movement to have the United
States government purchase Month
cello, the historic Virginia home OF
Thomas Jefferson, and the senate res
olution on the subject, Representative
jefferson M Levy Of New York, owner
of the property, today said he had no
intention of selling Monticello and that
he has the authority of many lawyers
when he maintains that the govern
ment can not take it from him.
Mr.. Levy referred in his statement
to the efforts of Mrs. Martin w. Lit

Memorial association, of which she is
managing director, to enlist congress,

business and professional men and the
public generally in behalf of the pur-
chase He said that when Mrs. Little
ton talked of the approval of congress
in regard to the purchase of Monticello
she should have said that what hap
pened was that a resolution passed the
senate to ask Mr.. Levy if he would sell.
He said he did not oppose the resolu-
ton because he did not think it would
pass, and that now the house commit
tee must report to the house as a body,
and he will be there as a member to
state his position.
Mrs Littleton will start on speech

TO CHANGE THE THREE-YEAR
LAW

Both Senator Borah and Congress.
man French announce that upon theil
return to Washington they will at once
endeavor to get through congress an
amendment to the Borah Three Year
Homestead bill, removing the cultiva-
ton requirements, which are so bur-
densome as to make the law of no
benefit whatever, but rather a detr-
ment to north Idaho, although good
enough for the people of the southern
part of the state.
The situation here in the north,
where it costs money to clear off
lands, is entirely different from that
of the southern part of the state where
the farmers hitch a team at either end
of railroad iron, drag it across the
sagebrush, and have the ground
cleared
In the homestead bill as it was made
effective tn, same requirement is made
of the people in the north as of the
people in the south, although the cost
of clearing and grubbing this land is
from ten to hundred times as much
as the cost preparatory to putting the
sagebrush areas in cultivation
For this reason the repeal of that
clause in the three-year homestead bill
is of vital Importance to the Develop
ment of north Idaho, and the people
of this section will welcome the
change which the senator and our con
gresham propose.

Latah county needs publicity-of the

The record this county has made in
the last two years is the envy of all

hundreds of inquiries.
The trouble is that there is no or

inquiries. All the publicity matter
that Latah county now has consists in
