several hundred thousand dollars, is,
according to l. R. Grow, publisher of
an Orofino paper, and Blake gang
man, a gigantic "fake." There in not
another town on earth where the peo-
pie would tolerate such conduct, and
there may be such thing as reaching
the limit Of endurance here. Orofino has
never been asked for one cent for the
development of one Of the greatest in
dustrial enterprises on the coast, some
thing of incalculable value, and for an
Orofino paper to knock it is contempt
able beyond measure. And from a
man who at the time is skinning the
public. A pretty example OF bust
ness integrity and honesty.
A paper that will charge $S6.43 cents
for $500 service to the people ought
to accuse other men Of watering stock
and being crooked.

PROHIBITION DOES PROHIBIT

Idaho Citizen:-It seems after
all that prohibition does prohibit.
We have always believed it, but
some folks have persisted that it
didn't. But now we hear of an
overproduction of whiskey and
other distilled spirits. We have
heard of an overproduction of
wheat and corn and potatoes and
cotton and wool and other neces-
saries of life, but who ever heard
before of an overproduction of
whiskey? The Chicago Tribune
presents some interesting figures
on this question. It declares that
in the bonded warehouses of the
United States there is, after a
complete deduction of all with
drawals, a gigantic net total of
pa, 68, 26O gallons. Distillers are
considering closing the distilleries
during 1914. We believe that not
many years will pass when a sin
gle gallon of liquor for beverage
purposes will be All overproduc-
ton. The interesting thing about
these figures is that the amount
manufactured is decreasing each
year, while the surplus is growing.
It is plain that the sales are grow
ing less.

Kooskia Mountaineer: NO
more finger bowls in Idaho. This
is the latest order from the state
pure food commissioner, and the
order applies to dining cars oper-
ated by railroads in the state as
we'll as to hotels and cafes.
With the issuance of this order
the chief asset of the waiter to
get a Tip" has been removed and
the only opportunity to get a piece
of money is to insure promptness
to the patrons.
We never could understand
why a waiter should be tipped"
True, the writer hasn't Travelled a
great deal on shoo-fly trains or
ocean liners, but in our experience
in wheeled dining rooms and
other swell joints" the tariff
schedule was plenty high without
giving up to a coon" waiter or
the apron-strings article that
glides along the waxed floor of
the stationary hash factory.

Some difference in the way
some men boost. For instance,
note the commendable spirit on
the part of the cashier of the
Bank of Orofino, who had only a
good, cheering word for Orofino
when interviewed by a Spokane
paper, and compare this with the
boost" published in the same
Spokane paper at about the same
time by a prominent member of the
Blake gang. But then the Bank
of Orofino is owned and run by a
set of men who not only believe
that Orofino is a good town, but
who are giving every possible as
sistance in the power of local
bank to the development and up
building of the community in
which they are operating. Such
an institution is worthy of the
confidence and support of every
loyal citizen of our little city, and
the Republican believes the peo-
pie here will not be slow in show
ing that they appreciate this fine
spirit on the part of a home bank.

The state of Idaho is maintain
ing a system of government that
is costing more than the people
can afford to pay, and that the
statement does not apply to the
state expenditures alone, but to
the counties, and that unless re-
trenchment is made taxes will be
higher here instead Of lower, no
matter. what party is in power,
was a statement made at the
opening session of the state meet
ing of county commissioners and
assessors by John Robertson, of
Weiser, tax expert employed by
the state commission, formerly
countp commissioner of Washing
ton county and a man who has
made a study of taxation for
many years.

WE'RE FROM MISSOURI.

If it costs $4,000 to build a
$4,000 bridge, what will it cost
the taxpayers of Clearwater coun-
ty, under Blake rule, to build a
$4,000 court house?
If the Blake gang will spend
$1,000 for bridge plans that should
be furnished free by the successful
bidder, how much will it cost the
tax payers for court house plans?
If the Blake gang will, in viola
ton of law, pay Blair Hoar a
bonus of $500 per month on the
side for useless Index records"
how much should they pay the
Orofino Tribune for printing SO
lines of commissioners proceed
ings?

Wagon Road Needed.

Milo George, than whom Clearwater
county boasts no better citizen, was an
Orofino visitor Friday, he being one OF
the visiting Masons at the public in
stallation Friday night. Mr.. George is
believer in good roads, and very anx-
ious that the Ford's creek road be
opened. In discussing the matter he
said he wanted to offer no criticism OF
the work Of the overseer, C. E. Long,
whom he complimented as capable
official, but said, through some mistake
the road was not on the survey and
must be changed, and that there are
five miles yet to build to connect it
connect it with the Clearwater river
road, now in such excellent shape by
virtue of the work done the past sea-
son by Overseer Frank White. eve
have no road now up Ford's creek, +"
said Mr.. George, land it should be
opened without unnecessary delay"

Whoever wrote the rot in the
last issue of the Orofino Tribune
was evidently suffering from the
effects of Christmas drunk.
When a fellow is reaching out
three feet into space trying to
scratch his left ear he is hardly in
condition to dash off brilliant con-
tributions for home consumption,
and would not know a cement
factory from Hailey's comet, nor
distinguish a dust storm from a
solar eclipse. Brother Crow
should lay in supply of Bromo
Settler and see that the boys
work the gas off their stomachs
before dishing up dope that
would disgrace a discredited al
manac, or go into the waste bas-
ket on the Bingville Bugle.

Says an exchange: After God
had finished the rattlesnake, the
toad and the vampire He had
some awful substance left, with
which he made a knocker. A
knocker is two legged animal
with a corkscrew soul, a water
sogged brain and a combination
backbone made of jelly and glue.
Where other people have their
hearts he carries a tumor of rot
ten principles. When the knock
er comes down the street, honest
men turn their backs, the angels
in Heaven take precipitate refuge
behind their harps and the devil
barlocks the gates of He'll.

A California exchange says;

with ink, handkerchiefs, backing,

Too Sensational.

There is some criticism on the policy
of the Republican, on the ground that
it is too sensational. Great Scott!
What will these people think when the
Republican gets to going, if the things
said the last four weeks are sensa-
tional? Why, all we have so far said
will look like an arctic blizzard in JAN
uary to what is coming, and people
who think they are not going to
like it should take warning and have
their paper stopped. The Republican
is going to tell the truth, and going to
pry off the lid at the court house, and
going to uncover the negro in the
woodpile, and tear the mask of n.y.
pocracy off the face of the Blake gang,
and raise Cain until the people wake
up and Clearwater county is redeemed.

Sites Enterprise:--Many a
domicile today, rich in furnish

far as material things go, could
be named hell instead of home,
while many another, poor in

the name of home which is the
nearest earthly approach to
