THE GREATEST FRIEND OF
TRUTH IS TIME.
(American Economist)

Will protection come again? Pro-
tectionists believe that "the greatest
friend Of truth is time" They expect
protection principles to vindicate
themselves. They expect that the
present period Of free trade. like the
free trade period Of 1S93-'97 will be
sufficient to inform the people Of the
undesirable consequences of departing
from safe, sound, practical lines and
embarking upon economic experiment
based wholly upon theory Protection
lists believe that those who have been
persuaded that a protective tariff is a
fraud and robbery Of the consumer
will naturally demand speedy relief
from the alleged burdens Of protective
tariff laws, and they will not be sat
isfied with preteXts or excuses for the
failure Of the party in power to bring
about a lower cost Of living without
at the same time diminishing the re-
ceipts and the profits Of all gainful en-
terprises and occupations, whether Of
the forge, the factory, the forest, the
fishery or the farm.

BURRILL FOR GOVERNOR.

A rumpr has reached Wallace that
Ezra Burrill, formerly lieutenant gov
ernor, will soon toss his hat into the
gubernatorial ring. Mr.. Burril is a
successful business man OF Montpelier
and since a business administration
seems to be what the people are clam
oring for he seems to be properly
qualified in that respect, and besides
his political and official records are de-
cidedly in his favor. The Miner is un-
able at this time to confirm the rumor
of Mr. Burrill's candidacy, but 1t can
be stated that If he does enter the
race the people will find in him man
big enough for the job.

TURNING THE RASCALS OUT.
(Chicago Tribune)

Mr. Bryan's theory that the expert
ence of being a good democrat is suf :
ficient for foreign service Is getting a
thorough test Whatever may be said
Of our new emissaries to foreign parts
it must be admitted that they con-
form to Jacksonian principles. There
is not the faint Of irregularity in them.
Many of them are graduates Of the
cracker barrel and the dried apple
school Of diplomacy. Prior to appoint
ment many of them never exhibited a
greater profundity in foreign affairs
than to remark, lighting stogie: Il
see they're having trouble in Russia"
But they all conform and we are
turning the rascals out" to put the
conformists in. The "rascals'' have
been years in the foreign service and
have won promotion on merit, but that
does not matter 1t will take years
after the retirement OF Mr. Bryan to
repair the damage done to the service,
but that does not matter. The import
ant thing Is to find places for the
faithful.

SENATOR BRADY AND THE MAR.
BILE CREEK SETTLERS.

II Senator Brady is as popular On
other sections of the state as he Is on
Marble creek, there will be nothing
to" the senatorial election. And II he
had rendered the same great service
to the people in other sections, 1t Is
altogether likely that his popularity
would be as great For something
like ten years the settlers on Marble
creek have been endeavoring to OBJ
tain title to their homesteads, and at
various times have been cOntesting
with the Northern Pacific railroad
company, the state of Idaho, and the
federal government in their efforts to
establish their rights to the land up
on which they are making their
home. The settlers finally won out as
against all contestants except the
state of Idaho, and few weeks ago
they sent a representative to Wash
ington in a final effort to get their
claims recognized in preference to the
state. The entire delegation in con-
gress from Idaho showed every pos
sble courtesy to the representative of
the settlers, and showed a desire to
render every proper service to him,
but it was Senator Brady who stayed
with the settlers until their case was
heard and a decision rendered.
Senator Brady's activity was merely
to expedite action by the department
to the emf! that the settlers might
know their status after so many years
of waiting. He made many trips to
the interior department, and 1t is
largely due to his personal activity in
the matter that the case was speedily
heard and decided. The senator Is a
man of action himself and inspires
action in Others. He recognized that
the settlers on Marble creek were en-
titled to have their rights finally de-
termined, and he permitted no one to
rest until the decision was rendered
That is the Brady way of doing things
and that accounts for the senator's
popularity on Marble creek

HOME INDUSTRY WEEK.

EVERY time you go to town
And start to throw your money round,
Say Home made goods are the stuff
for me-
Because they spell pros-per-i-ty
The dollar you send to the eastern
shore
Says: Goodbye, Bill for evermore;
But the dollar you spend in your own
home town
Keeps a comm and a comm and a
comm round"
Governor Haines has designated by
proclamation the week beginning on
April 10 and ending April IS, as home
industry week, when it is requested
that all citizens Of the state not only
make speciality of patronixing home
industries, but by advocating and en-
couraging 1t in every way possible to
the end that the principle will become
firmly established and continually
practiced. The advantages Of such a
system of supporting home industry
are so apparent that argument Is un-
necessary to induce the people to OBJ
serve home industry week in spirit and
in practice. Any plan that has for its
purpose keeping money at home and
encouraging investment in home enter
prises deserves cordial support.

cost of the factory product; it is to
such contradictory scheme. to so in
congruous and impossible a result,
that the party Of free trade has COM
mitted itself. OF course, 1t will fail.
1t will not lower the price Of the ne
cessaries of life except as 1t shall re-
duce the ability to pay. But reduced
ability to pay is not what they want.
They have been assured that 1t is per-
fectly feasible, through lower tariff
duties and increased foreign competi-
ton, to lower the price of commodities
without lowering the price of labor
They want to be shown. Nothing Of
the kind is possible. Events will prove

Does Meter Reader Work?

Few people realize how many mo tions meter readers have to gc through in collecting the information necessary for making up electric bills. Some interesting facts are brought out in the analysis of a meter readers movements in a town of 17,00O people, as presented in the Electrical World
 The data show that 28 hours was required in reading 730 meters. Dur. ing that time 6S1 stairs were climbed and ,S67 doors had to be opened. In travelling from one consumers house to the next the meter reader trav. ersed 304 blocks and crossed streets 314 times.
 These figures suggest that eonsid. erable time could be saved the men. while inconvenience could be spared the customers, if meters were in- stalled in more accessible places, such as for instance, on back porches.

Origin of Gibraltar

The tar in Gibraltar" is a con. traction of Taric or Tariff, the name of famous pirate of medieval times. The whole word may be translated as mountain or cliff of Taric." This same root tar occurs in the word tariff, , which has such a familiar sound to most of us now. Taric after a time came to levy a tax or tariff on passing vessels instead of robbing them out right. In this way our word tariff had it's origin. It is interesting to note also that this robber was further hon. ored by having the town of Taliffa, near Gibraltar, named for him.

OWES HIS LIFE TO MEASLES
Man Afflicted With Tuberculosis and Given Up to Die Has the Laugh
 on the Doctors.

If the doctors have given you up to die of tuberculosis don't do it. but go and get a dose of the measles. and when you have recovered from the combination you will not have any tuberculosis. and will be as likely 10 outliye the doctor as he will be to outlive you. This may seem like peculiar remedy, but man named Trotter, who was given up to die by his physician has outliyed the doctor.
 Trotter was of a jolly disposition, and kept on his feet and out of doors a large part of his time, but it finally became only question of days, and was so recognized by the sick man and all his friends. About this time an epidemic of measles broke out in the neighborhood, and as Trotter had never had the disease the doctor ad- vised him to leave the locality, as to contract it would surely kill him. Trotter replied: Well Doc, you say Tse gwine to die anyhow; reckon I'll jes stay to hum with the ole wo- man an die with good taste in my mouth. He got the measles and had 1t from the crown of his head to the soles of his feet. The disease re- mained with him as long proportion ately as he was physically ehe was six feet and four inches taln. but despite the doctors prognosis lie got well and when he was well of the measles he was we'll of the tubereu. loss. and though the doctor told him enc lung vas gone and half Of the other one. he persisted in remaining well man, and outlived the deeter and nearly all his neiehbors It would be a heroic remedy for man given up to die to seek, but Trotter.s philos. ophy proved to have better founda tion than that of the doctor who had done ali that his education and ex perience enabled him to do.

Only a Little Mouse,

In an uptown church Sunday even Ing, when the pastor had got we'll into his sermon. he noticed an unusual commotion among the choir, at his right. For time he tried to ignore 1t, but the trouble became so lively that he felt 1t his duty to rebuke the singers in loud voice The disturb ance finally quieted down and the ser mon proceeded with due dignity. A member of the choir managed to com municate to the much annoyed pastor the cause of the disturbance before the services were concluded. It was a mouse-only little mouse But with the perversity of it's kind this little mouse had managed to get under the skirts of one of the ladies.
