Lure of Gold

IT matters not what the dangers
are the lure of gold will have its fol-
lowers. The trails of Alaska were
crowded with men and women who
sought the yellow lustre when the
rush was on. Nevada has seen such
sights and again it is in evidence.
With the discovery of Rochester
in mid winter the rush has started.
The result is that many a good mar
will lay down his life as a sacrifice
to the call of excitement and chance
Of fortune.
Men without means were warned
to keep out. No new mining camp is
the poor mans field. The necessi-
ties of life come beyond the average
purse, and unless the nan is equip
ped for hardship he had better stay
at home. Warnings such as these
are absolutely UNDECIDED. Each man
feels that he is as good as his neigh
Dor, and believes that there is always
a chance to break into the magic cir
Gle of wealth. This is the sole pur-
pose of the man without means GO
ing TO a place where he must under
go hardships and take a chance with
death.
The mar without the hardening
process of out door life is taking 4
chance. He fails to realize that the
w~ell-housed and we'll fed man is soft
when work is considered. and hat his
blood is not of the warmpth of the
man who has hardened with seasons.
II results in untimely deaths and cpl
denies, such as are now ravagine
Rochester and other camps of early
state.
The warning will be unheeded. 1t
has ever been so, but the fact re-
mains that If man has comforts and
is not in fit physical condition he had
better wait at home till the dangers
have passed. Warning and gold
camps don't go hand in hand.

THE great coffee trust is at last
ended. Whether we will get any
cheaper coffee or whether We will get
any better coffee or not, we are not
informed. but the old trust, which
ran two or three years, was instituted
in the first place to ave the planters
in Brazil, who were in the habit OF
rushing their product to market as
soon as it was harvested.
Tic anti-suit that was expected
has been obviated. There was in this
country 931 900 bags of coffee. These
were sold and distributed. or are in
the course of distribution among
seventy-eight buyers in twenty
states, who purchased it at uniform
prices and conditions. 1t is said the
old trusts profits may have been
about S5S.OO0,OOO, which shows how
gigantic the trads was, or rather how
r:s; ntic were :he tlanu- tat We c
put upon the trade in order to Sc
cure high prices.
And the people of the United
States have drank all that. Now the
trust will probably reform in Canada.
Coffee is one of the wonderful
plants of the world. We suspect
there are more men who get up IN
the morning and ask for a cup of
coffee than for any other one thing
on earth. 1t is a delicious beverage.
and we believe an absolutely harm
less beverage, when used moderately,
to almost every human being.-Salt

Major Harris and his wife had at

Winnipeg Admit Self Destruction

New York, Jan. 31.AThe family OF
Eugene Delano, Jr., found dead yester-
day in the Royal Alexandria hotel at
Winnipeg, Manitoba, confirmed today
that he had died by his own hand.

Nationalist Party Success
full in Election Of Member
Of Parliament; Demon
stration Follows Victory.

Londonderry, Ireland. Jan. 31.-The
Irish home rule bill party won no
table victory over the unionists in the
election of member Of parliament
for this city. The poll which was, as
usual, a very close one, resulted as
follows: l....
David c. Hogg, nationalist, 2699.
Col. H. A. Pankenham, unionist
2,642. ...-
Majority 81.
The seat had been held since 1906
by the Marquis Of Hamilton who was
recently elevated to the house of lords
on the death Of his father, the Duke Of
Abercorn.
The victory OF the home rulers gives
them i majority OF members Of parlia
|ment from the province Of Ulster In the
house of commons.
Extraordinary efforts we're made by
both parties to bring every elector tc
the polls and as result Of their ex
ertions, out of a total electorate Of
5,462 votes, 6341 cast their ballots
Many of the sick and inf1rm inhabi
tants were taken to the polling booths
In ambulances.
Much fear has been expressed that
the election would give rise to serious
disturbances owing to the feverish
excitement prevailing in parts Of vi
ster at the present moment on the
home rule question. A large force OF
the royal Irish constabulary had been
drafted into the city but their services
were not often called into requisition

made more interesting by the fact that
both the unionists and home rule can
didates were Protestant. The Protes

a candidate it was forseen that he
would carry some of the Protestant
home rule with him who otherwise
would have abstained from voting tc
religious differences.
Celebrate Victory by Song.
The announcement Of the result Of
the polling was followed by extraordi

A deafening tornado of shrieks

was accompanied by the firing of re
volvers in the air, while green and red
handkercn-.fs and union jacks fiutter

The nationals sang "A nation once

Mounted police had to clear the way
and escorted Mr.. Hogg and Col Paken

The rival crowds came into con
tact at one point. There was much
stone throwing and the police were
obliged to charge and disperse the peo
pie with their clubs.

GROWERS.

the opportunity offered the potato
growers Of this section Of becoming
members of an organization which
assured the successful marketing Of
this most important crop. Since
that time the farmers in the vicini-

Thursday, Aug. 28th and would

at this office they can obtain a copy
of the contract. Remember the

TEN CENTS FOR HOGS.
Richfield Man Receives Top Price for
Porkers.

T. J. Byrne returned Wednesday
from Portland, where he went last
week with a car of hogs from the
Richfield tract. And what do you
suppose he did with the hogs?
Topped the market, receiving 10
cents a pound straight for the car,
the highest price on record for hogs
in the west
The hogs were all raised here,
most of them being late fall or win
ter pigs. They averaged about 1870
pounds and were smooth and of the
right weight to bring the very top.
That they were bought at such a
price is "A matter for great encour-
agement to the people here; they
can surely raise hogs good enough
for any market, and the price is
high enough to make it wonderfully
profitable. This made each hog
worth $40, which will certainly bt
a profitable price for any farmer tC
