GRAVE CLOSES
OVER BODY OF
Sen. BRADLEY.
Last Sad Rites Paid at Frank
fort to the Body of the
Senator.
SERVICES SIMPLE
AND PLAIN,
Many Distinguished State
and National Characters
Present.

FRANKFORT, KY, May 2S-Ser-
burial of the humblest citizen took
place Tuesday afternoon in the room
where the body of the late Senator
w. o. Bradley lay; but outside the
hush of suspended business, broken
only by the measured booming of the
Governors salute from Arsenal Hill,
the immense thrOngs gathered in the
street and at the cemetery, and the
presence at the services of person
ages high in National and State
affairs, made the obisquieS of the.
dead statesman a public occasion.
1t was the most distinguished gath
ering attending the burial of a pub
lie man in Frankfort in many years.
When the train bearing the body
and the family and Congressional
party reached Frankfort, at 9:45,
Gov. McCreary and all the State,
county and city officials were present
Flags on the Capitol and State AIRS
email were hung at half-mast, all bus
mess houses closed at noon, as did
the city and county Offices, and as the
cOrtege left the South home big
gun on Arsenal Hill fired seventeen
guns.
The Rev. DR.. Jesse R. Zeigler, pas
tor of the First Presbyterian Church,
read the burial services at the house.
DR.. Zeigler offered prayer and read
passages from the Twenty-third Psalm
and John xiv, and the choir of the
Presbyterian Church sang There Is
la Light in the Valley For Me- and
abide With Me-
AS soon as the simple services were
concluded the procession was formed
and moved to the cemetery. The lot
selected is near the BivOuac of the
Dead, where an imposing spire is
erected to the memory of Kentucky
heroes who fell in five wars, and
within sight are the tombstOnes of
most of Kentucky's Governors.

THEATRICAL.
Mrs. Fiske at Ben Ali.

There is nothing serious, nothing
gloomy, nothing unpleasant unless it
be to the hypOchOndriac who resents
being made to laugh, in Mrs. Fiske's
play Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh, in
which she is to appear at the Ben Ali
Theatre, Lexington, on Monday, June
list. The play does not appeal to any
one or to an exclusive class of play
house patrons, but rather to that very
extensive clientele which seeks the
theatre more for amusement than for
any other purpose. On her former
tours, Mrs. Fiske has appeared prin-
cipally in serious, sometimes unhappy
plays and in fact has been generally
identified with productions that ap-
pealed more to the intellectualities of
the theatre-gOer than to his resistibil-
tiles. In the present instance this
does not obtain, as Mrs. Bumpstead-
Leigh" places no tax upon the men,
tally Ohter than that required to ap-
preciate the crisp and highly effective
dialogue Of the author and the Won
derfully and genuinely comic charac-
terization given by Mrs. Fiske, who
enters into the depletion OF the daugh-
ter of an Indiana peddler of pain-kili-
ers and stomach eliXirs, founding a
fortune with which the daughter
breaks into the English >aristocracy,
with Zest that is irresistible, ex-
hibiting phases of her wonderfully
comprehensive art that no other role
in her career has permitted her to
display.

Seward, AIaska.-Now that the
government has decided to build
railroads in Alaska the big question
from all who. are interested in the
northern empire is-'.Where will the
roads be built?''
Unprejudiced government officials
declare that the most likely place for
one terminal is here at Seward, on
Resurrection bay. This port has al
ready been mentioned as the most
likely place for the proposed navy
coaling station. 1t is on the south
eastern end of Kenai peninsula and
has the best climate in Alaska COM,
pairing favorably with northern
states.
Directly north of here are the
Matanusko coal fields which the gov.
ernment's field tests. show to con-
tain the best coal in the territory.
The most valuable agricultural
lands in Alaska lie between the coal
fields and the sea, around Cooks Inlet
to the west and on Kenai peninsula.
But the use Of points OH the inlet for
a railroad terminal is disco ~IagUd Oh
account 0I ice hoods.

Portage bay on the northwest cor
ner of the peninsula, which has been
boosted by interested parties for the
terminal, is narrow gorge like ford
surrounded by glacier-covered noun
tainS. -.-
Another move which makes the
location of the terminal of one of the
government roads at Seward is the
withdrawal,of the Guggenheims from
the controversy.
Right on top of the governments
decision to build the roads comes the
announcement by high Morgan-Gug-
genheim men that no effort will be
made to influence the locating of the
road. Their explanation for this is
that controversies with the govern
ment have greatly injured their bust
ness all over the country. Orders
have been issued to keep out of all
disputes.

LEWISTON A SEAPORT.

Washington, June 3. Especially Sem
ator Brady is urging the adoption Of
an amendment to the river and harbor
bill authorizing a survey of Snake
river from its mouth to Lewiston, with
view to canalization, where neces-
sary. The Senator believes it is en-
tirely feasible to SO improve Snake
river that any vessel that can pass
through the Cello canal can reach
Lewiston. In order to accomplish
this, however, it will be necessary to
build several short canals to overcome
rapids, and open stretches of river
will have to be cleared of shoals and
other distractions aud the channel
deepened. In the Senator's opinion,
the government would be amply justi-
fled in undertaking this improvement,
for it would give Idaho a port on navi-
gable water; through which the pro-
ducts Of the state could be shipped en-
tirely by water to Portland, and there
transshipped, and sent through the
Panama canal to the Atlantic coast, and
to the markets Of the world. Until
Lewiston becomes the head of naviga-
ton on Snake river, the Senator says,
Idaho will never derive full benefit of
water rates on its farm and other pro-
ducts, but once it becomes possible to
load vessels at Lewiston, and ship
direct to Portland by an all water
route, freight rates from Idaho to the
coast will necessarily be reduced by
the railroads, which will be obliged to
meet water competition. Under exist
ing law, congress can not authorize an
appropriation for SO improving Snake
river until after a survey and report
has been made by the Army engineers,
but il survey is authorized by the
pending bill, it will be possible to Sc
cure an appropriation for improvement
next session if the report of the engi-
neers is favorable.

ROTTEN ROAD AND POLITICS

The Republican believes the taxpay-
ers of Clearwater county are being
skinned, through the various deals, out
of not less than $4,000 a year. Half
the road funds are wasted through in
compentency, laziness, and graft, if,
within the term graft, one may include
the thousands OF dollars paid out to
political henchmen who draw $3.50 per
day and do no work worth while. It
is rotten outrage the way the road
moneys are wasted. All over the
county the road bosses are generally
the democratic precinct committeeman,
who hold their jobs, not because of
their fitness for road work, but be-
cause OF their ability to deliver the
votes to the gang at election time. It
is case of how little can be done for
the money, instead of how good the
roads can be made with the available
funds. 1t is ward politics, Tammany
methods, and rotten business. OF
course there are exceptions to the rule.
There are some competent road over
seers, but these men are not holding
their jobs because of their ability to
make roads; it is a mere incident that
some democratic committeeman hap
pen to be competent. They would
hold their jobs just the same if they
were not, because those who are not
competent held their jobs just the
same. That is the proof. And the
people pay the bills, and put up with
rotten roads as a result of the gang
system Of using road funds to build up
and maintain the gang in power in
Clearwater county. The hopeful thing
about it is that there are some demo-
Gratis who do not like it, and who will
mot support such system.

BEWARE OF FOREST FIRES.

The loss Of any considerable area OF
timber lands in Clearwater county
would be a disaster Of far-reaching con.
sequence to every citizen, regardless
OF his business, and the utmost precau-
ton should be used, whenever visiting
the timber, to see that all fires, match
es, and smoking articles, like cigarettes
and cigars, are out before thrown
away. Take time to see that all fires
are out before you proceed. With the
hot weather will come forest fires un-
less the people take precaution and as
sist in preventing them. Don't i'm
imagine that just because timber be-
longs to some corporation that it is of
no consequence to you if it is destroyed
by fire. Every thousand feet OF tim
Der manufactured means an expendi-
ture of about Is for labor, and one Of
these days somebody is going to manu-.
ture this timber. Active operations
will mean more to the farmer, who
needs market, than to any other
class. Let us protect our timber. Our
future prosperity depends on this re-
source.

Yakima Republic.-The removal
of the tariff on butter is 90.
ing to cost the Oregon and Wash
ington farmers about 100000 this
year. This is the estimate made by
leading creamery men, of the reduced
profits the farmers will derive from
their cream and butter fat. Since the
first of January the price of butter fat
has averaged more than cents a
pound under last years price. Butter
is quoted cheaper for the season than
has been known for years because the
creameries are putting very little in
storage, as they know that when it
comes out it will have to meet the COM
petition of New Zealand butter, which
at that season of the year is fresh
grass butter. Even watchful waiting
promises nothing for the dairy farmers
Of the Pacific Northwest operating un-
der the restrictions of the new tariff
law.

Why did Assessor Molloy resign?
"WINDY PETE" AGAIN.

One of the best letters that has come
to the Republican is from reader in
another state. The writer says:
'Windy Pete" is a great name, Ell?
You have surely taken the wind out Of
Shiny jim, and to an outsider he looks
like a toy balloon with hole in it.
There may be some good democrats in
Clearwater county, but they have been
dominated by the Blakes, and If do
not miss my guess, there is going to be
a cleaning of the stable one of these
days."
The writer says that he has little
faith in the sincerity Of the democrats
who have started in to reform things.
He says that the whole bunch trained
in the Blake camp till the gang was
exposed and now they are trying to
hide behind someone's back. That
good democrats have long known that
conditions in Clearwater county were
rotten, but that nothing was done till
the Clearwater Republican came in
and exposed the dirty mess. The
writer seems to believe that conditions
would have continued, with the tax
payers getting skinned, and all manner
of extravaganza and graft rampant, and
that the reform" officials would have
remained silent partners in the crime,
except that the Clearwater Republican
stirred up mess by publishing facts,
and that it is fear of losing these jobs
that has made some of the democrats
shift their sails.
The writer says "this letter is not for
publication" or the Republican would
take pleasure in making it public. We
have taken the liberty to give our
readers some Of the pertinent sugges-
tons as they bear upon county politics,
and the public may. have them for
what they are worth.

Second Annual Commencement.


The second annual commencement Of
the Orofino high school was held last
Friday evening in the Odd Fellows
hall. A class Of seven, consisting Of
Helen Wellman, Della Loseth, Carrie
Henager, Gisella Donath, Lilly Rober-
son, Forrest Osterhout and Harold
Kline, received diplomas, which admit
them to the state university without
examination.
The program was listened to by one
Of the largest audiences ever assem-
bled in Orofino. The music given by
the high school chorus, with the as
ance of Messrs. Cole, Loseth and Stor-
holt, received many fine compliments.
Professor Edward M. Hume, of the
University Of Idaho. delivered an un-
usually able address ON the Forces Of
Social Progress. He divided the
forces into three, namely: Inventions
and discoveries, governmental changes
and world ideals. He traced the ef-
ects Of these forces from the dawn of
history down to the present day, and
concluded his address with an eloquent
appeal to the class to further, with all
the ability at their command, the ideals
especially operative which tend to
abolish ignorance, war, poverty and
disease.
DR.. Britain, chairman of the board of
trustees, with few forceful remarks
as to the graduates duty to society, pre-
scented the diplomas.

Notwithstanding, Judge Steel was re-

Clearwater county would in fact have
good roads. What the roads need is
more sand and less politics. The PEG.

road funds are used as campaign funds.

When the gang say the republicans
Of Clearwater county are opposed to an
honest cruise they lie. There is vast
difference in being opposed to the way
the cruise is done and in being opposed
to an honest cruise. 1t is hard to see
q reason why the people should be
made to pay an extra five cents an acre
for the work. And because we can't
the gang brand US as timber tool. We
are opposed to the way this gang is
grating the taxpayers on county print
ing. Are we opposed to county print
ing at an honest price? Neither are we
opposed to an honest cruise.
