POST
CUTS EXPRESS

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-An admission
Of the inroads made upon the business
of the Wells-Fargo Express company
by the parcel post was made today in
letter prepared by President Ca1d-
well, which he sent to all employees.
He says
New Years brought to the express
company a competitor worthy of its
mettle. The parcel post becomes a
competitor not only of the company,
but of every man in the service.
Hence the newcomer is an important
factor in small transportation, neither
to be belittled nor overestimated, but
it calls for renewed efforts on the part
of the Wells-Fargo men to maintain
the company's standard of service as a
basis of public patronage"

BOISE. Idaho. JAN 10.-(SpeciaD-
With the exception of Governor
Gooding's announcement to the people
of Idaho that he had withdrawn
from the senatorial race, and why,
which was issued last night, nothing
has occurred in later developments
until o'clock this morning.
The one question now is as to where
the Gooding support will go, and it is
understood that that question will be
a deciding factor. The entry of E. H..
Dewey OF Nampa into the race has not
seemed to complicate matters to any
extent.
Gov. G00ding's Statement.
Mr.. Gooding announced his with
drawal in the following statement:
ITO the members of the twelfth
session of the legislature and people
Of Idaho: / have been an active can
didate for United States senator to
fill the unexpired term Of the late
Senator Hepburn. A doubt as to my
eligibility to fill the position if elect
ed, has been raised, and l do not feel
in justice to myself and to the re-
publican party, which has honored
me in the past, and to all the citizens
OF Idaho that I have any right to
continue longer as a candidate for
this great office.
with the senate evenly divided in
the next session, I believe we must
look forward to the most momentous
contest between the two great parties
in the senate ever known in American
politics. l would not be honest with
myself and with the people of Idaho,
so long as doubt has been raised as
to my eligibility, to continue in the
fight. I have never had any doubt
in my own mind as to my citizenship.
l have always believed myself to have
been in the position occupied by Gov
ernor Boyd Of Nebraska, but after a
thorough investigation there is some
question raised as to that So the
duty owe to the people of Idaho is
a plain and simple one to withdraw
from the senatorial contest now be-
fore the twelfth session Of the Idaho
legislature.
"J have lived in America As years,
and in Idaho 80 years. l have known
no other country and no other flag, and
l believe l can best serve the party
which has honored me twice by elect
ing me governor Of this state by with
drawing from the contest.
1T there Is any doubt as to my
eligibility to seat In the United
States senate at this time, that doubt
will have passed away before the
matter of the election of senator
comes up two years hence. l shall
be q candidate for the United States
senate before the people of the state
of Idaho at that time.
y want to take this opportunity TO
thank all the members of the legis- |
lature for their kindness to me. do
not believe l have an enemy among |
them ALL I know l have many warm
supporters in that assembly. I want
to thank my friends IN all parts OF the

grass and wild flowers, it's mountains
and forests What an inviting place
in which to make home! A rich soil,
capable of producing all kinds of
grains, fruits and grasses, mild and
cOngenial climate, pure water in
abundance, and a supply of fuel and
lumber near at hand. No wonder the
first settlers who saw it in it's virgin
beauty are loyal to the country Here
were all the elements for mans COM
fort and pleasure, and this ought now
to be a community of highly cultivated
farms, beautiful country homes, large
and commodious schoolhouses with
well-kept grounds and well graded
and gravelled roads, bordered in many
places with beautiful trees. Much
valuable time has been lost since the
settlement of the country in plodding
summer and wading through seas of
mud in the winter, but it is not too
late to make good roads if the people
can only see their Importance. For a
few months each year our roads are
good, and what delight it is at such
times to drive over the country, to
feast our eyes upon its natural beauty
and growing crops and enjoy its sun
shine and bracing air, or seek the cool
refreshing shade of the nearby forests.
But for the greater part of the year
our roads are serious handicap, ma
king driving for pleasure or travelling
on business a burden few care to un-
dertake, and in the winter life in the
country is undesirable, and scores of
families are driven from their homes
to the towns.
Other communities far less prosper

Hands statement that the pastor had
told him during Sunday school meet
ing at Lewiston that he, (the minister)
had noticed Hazel Benedict and her
brother, Thurlow's delinquency in the
Baptistry room of the church. The
boy was then called to the stand and
denied the pastors charges that he

Mr.. Hand, although admitting that
he had told his minister something re-

Miss Benedict was also called in re-

To our members who live in the city
the subjeot of this paper may not seem
interesting or of great Importance, and
yet the question of how to maintain
good roads, over which those who live
in town and country may travel with
ease and comfort during all the ear
is now claiming the attention OF all
classes of people, and surely we
women of the northwest, enjoying
equal rights with men and charged
alike with responsibility, are inter
ested in helping to solve this question.
No attempt will here be made to pre-
sent in detail any ideas on road con-
struction but simply to point out the
condition of our roads and endeavor TO
arouse interest for their improvement.
Our public roads, country homes.
schoolhouses and grounds are SO close
ly linked together that the whole ques-
tion of rural life may be profitably con-
sidered.
Confining our observations to this
immediate vicinity, we may truthfullv
say that we live in the richest and
most beautiful agricultural country i'll
the world. Our citizens are prosper

which all should be interested, arc

schoolhouses and grounds are neglect

with this Palouse country and our hills
and valleys when covered with differ
