We do not think the American people look back with
upon those Cleveland and the disaster they
brought TO American capital and labor.
The experience the American people had under the
Cleveland Democratic administration naturally makes
them approhensiye with respect to the Wilson Demo-

may said without Of Democratic contradiction.
That is that the cheaper Of living promised by the

and the tendency OF prices for the necessaries life

In fact, Democratic national administrations seem

oil OF peppermint produces from 80 to Is
pounds to the acre. This year in the
east, it was contracted for - Is per pound.
Mr.. Felthouse states that the climate
and soil is partially adapted for the in
dustry in Payette valley, especially on
the bench land. Two crops a year can
be harvested and the shipping OF same il
only five cents pound. He will soon
have the rates on the roots and will get

The tentative plans for the acre
age charge are upon estimates made
by the conference Saturday. The
companies are to pay the fee upon
all lands upon which settlers have
not come, and the men on the land
are to pay only upon the land under
cultivation.
The estimates made indicate a
charge of about eight cents per acre
for the project and general organize

but 1920 per acre-surely a small
sum for the benefits to be derived.
