THINGS ARE COMING OUR WAY.


Things seem to be coming the vests way pretty fast
Just BY that that particular portion OF the
west that here interested in 1t is too bad that
have had little nothing to do with bringing it about and
especially bad that have simply sat still and waited
for many years for somebody else to force upon
benefits that we should have been fighting for should
have gotten long years ago. But what's the repinng
over what might have been when able to sol
much that is going to be- The only that see
to question, is to call attention to the
folly of much of the argument that is always being adj
Nanced against trying do things to benefit ones COM
munity but there people who will never learn,
even through experience.
But about the good things that coming way:I
We all know about the big prices that the heepmen are
getting but which they like little to have mentioned
That always amuses as well as peases us. We are
amused because Of the evident embarrassment that al
sheepman displays whenever he is forced to give an
willing Acknowledgement that his business fourlshlng
at time when by all the laws and arguments that he has
known, it ought to be anguishing and he himself
ought be growing poor instead of rch but it peases
because his industry great western industry that IS
thriving it has never thrived before.
Then, too all know that the potato industry has
suddenly grown to immense proportions In this state
Here again is for amusement well for gratlca
ton The thing perhaps, that has made this great
industry that will last and that will prove 1t to be profit
able one the cooperation among the potato growers
which has been accomplished through the potato branch
of the fruit distributors association of this section The
amusing feature of this thing is that congress- just now
should be engrossed in effort to enact law which
will not make criminals out OF those who trying to
make success this great industry which to provide
the food for the constituents of the members OF that
gress Isn't it enough to make one amused to think that
cannot find method OF dealing with real Grim
inals without enactlng law making CRIMINALS OF such
food producers these and then find themselves under
the necessity of inserting clause in that criminal law
which specifies that these particular criminals shall not
be prosecuted under the law9
But aside from the amusement thus afforded, we are
bound feel great qualification that here another great
industry of that has been placed upon thriving basis
In the connection there is the fruit industry which
has been placed upon paying and stable basis by the
same terminal" organization that congress is just
declaring it's desire not to prosecute Here is
men but there the greater satisfaction to know that
still another great industry will always thrive for u.s. We
bound to recognize this another of the big things
"coring our way" this year, for in spite Of the late
fros the fruit crop going to be fairly good and thanks
to this successful organization OF criminals who are to
be exempt from prosecution the producer will receive
price good enough to encourage him to continue produc-
ton and enough induce him to extend his orchards
OF course laws cannot make or break prosperity but
even If such mistaken declaration should be believed
are bound believe that the exemption from the results
this law is making great success OF another OF our
Industries
We do not desire to undertake to enumerate all the
things that fare coming way just 1t would
require too much space and would tire the reader We
have made mention of these indication bf line
of thought leading to final of these great things
That great thing, is the recent railway rate decis-
ion of the supreme court OF the United States sustaining
the Interstate commission in declaring that is
Illegal for the railways serving Idaho for illustration to
continue charge for freight rate made up of the
charge to the coast plus the charge from the coast back
again
