WORLD PEACE.
sistance.

Nobody wants war II it can be hon
orably avoided. but better a war than
peace at any price. It has been often
stated, and it Is just as true today as
when 1t was first uttered, that the
best guaranty any nation has for
maintaining peace is to be prepared
for war. No nation can maintain its
self respect and grow In greatness
whose people are not willing to face
the supreme test of loyalty to coun-
try. That brand of loyalty Is not the
outgrowth of commercial alliances
and arbitration treaties between ma
tions. It comes from the glorious his
tory of the past, from the Revolution
to the war with Spain, when men
freely offered their lives to their coun-
try and counted it glory enough to
die fighting for the flag. Take away
this spirit. withhold from the youth
the inspiration Of heroic deeds which
thrill every patriotic American as he
reads the history Of the army and
navy, and you take away the spirit
that stands for the real greatness of
the nation. Let us have peace, but let
1t be peace with honor.

TALKING PAVING.

A representative of paving con
Germ appeared before the last meet
| ing Of the city council and submitted
an argument In support Of his par
ticular brand Of paving material and
the desirability Of placing the same
on some Of the principal thorough
fares of Wallace. How his remarks
were received by the council is not
recorded, but as 1t was generally UNI
derstood before election that the can
didates on the citizens ticket were In
favor Of paving. It would appear not
improbable that the paving argument
the other night is the beginning Of a
movement to put the paving PROPOSE
ton through.
Paving the streets of Wallace is not
"a necessity; In fact il would be an
extravaganza, with no justification
whatever. And right here particular
attention Is called to the condition of
Wallace streets following the melting
OF the exceptionally heavy snow Of the
past winter, coupled with the heavy
rains that followed. With all this
moisture the streets have hardly been
noticeably muddy, and at their worst
a few hours Of warm sunshine makes
it necessary to get out the sprinkler
to hold down the dust.
If this paving question does become
a live issue the council will find that
the taxpayers who have property on
streets included in the proposed paw
ing district will be almost solidly
against it, and that they will not
submit to shouldering this useless and
unjust burden without stubborn re-
sistance.

WHEN LIVING COST WAS TOO
LOW.

To deal fairly with high cost of liv-
ing there must be considered jointly
the ability Of the purchaser to pay. II
matters little whether the cost of an
article be high or low if the would be
purchaser has no money to buy The
present tariff tinkerers seem to figure
but one side of the proposition. They
/ will succeed in lowering the cost of
living, but the ultimate cost of the
act may be fearful Here is an in
teresting reminder from protective
tariff paper of what has been, and no
one should forget that like causes
produce like effects.
THE democratic tariff revisers in
the house add to their proposed bill
a table comparing the present price Of
commodities with their cost in 1897,
the year when the last democratic ad-
ministration ended and the republi-
cans assumed control for an excep-
tionally long term of years. This sum-
mary Of prices tells but small part
of the story. In 1896 the democratic
party. under the extremely active
leadership of the present secretary of
state, claimed that prices had been
made abnormally low by an alleged
crime against the double standard of
currency, and the proposed democratic
remedy for low prices was the de-
basement Of the dollar to about 40
cents, with probable speedy resort
to unsecured paper. Voters condemn
ed the proposition and one of the first
republican measures passed was to
establish the gold standard so that IT
could not be assailed again by rash
agitators. At the present time the
United States holds more gold than
any other nation and every one of its
dollars is worth anywhere 100 cents
In gold.
Another table should be given COM
pairing present wages and opportunit-
les of employment with those of 1897
and the four preceding years of dem
ocratic calamity. The cost of living
Is high, no doubt too high, but who
would be willing to go back to the
conditions of Is years ago? 1t was
a time of little work. scant pay.

WRONG TIME, WRONG PLACE.

The truth of the matter is well ant
crisply stated by the st. Louis Globe
Democrat when it says:
Texas objects to free wool and
free lumber. but not at the best
place, at the polls.
That is the case In many other 10.
calities besides Texas. says the Am.
erican Economist. All over the coun-
try constituencies which elected dem
ocrats to congress are now yelling fol
protection to save their home indus
tries. But they yell. at the wrong
time and the wrong place. Last No
vember was the proper time and the
ballot box the proper place to do the
yelling.

MINING AND ROAD BUILDING.

The people Of Shoshone county are
particularly well pleased to have the
state highway commission make this
section the objective point of then
first official visit and we feel confid-
ent that their observations here will
convince them that 1t will be greatly
to the advantage OF the state to have
the missing link In the transcontin-
entail highway completed, and there
fore that the enterprise merits liberal
financial support. That the people OF
the panhandle are deeply interested
In the undertaking and fully recognize
the great and lasting benefits to be
derived from the construction Of this
great trunk roadway Is conclusively
shown by the presence here Of the
county commissioners of Kootenai and
Bonner counties and numerous other
prominent and enterprising citizens of
those counties.
Good roads appeal just as strongly
to the miner as they do to the farmer
and fruit grower. But the miner is
generally confronted with much
heavier expense in getting his road
than the man In the agricultural Sec
tons. for the first Is generally
situated In a rough mountainous coun-
try. remote from the public highways.
and too often the powers that be look
upon road to his mining property as
private enterprise and for that rea-
son decline to give 1t assistance from
the public funds. But the people are
rapidly becoming educated on the
subject Of road building, and among
other ideas that are rapidly taking
root IL that public funds can very pro-
perly be used to encourage and assist
an enterprise, though privately own
ed, which will prove of great benefit
to the entire community. From this
point of view. and 1t is the correct
one, the men who are devoting their
energies and every dollar they can
raise to the development of mines.
and who are handicapped in their
work by poor roads or no roads, are
entitled to substantial assistance from
the county government. !
In common with the people of this
great mining district. The Miner be-
lievcs the construction of the trans
continental highway across Shoshone
and Kootenai counties is "a matter of
benefit and that it should
receive liberal support from the state.
The counties have shown their good
faith by pledging liberal appropra-
tions and it is now up to the state
highway commission
