IRISH WOMEN OF LONG
AGO.

Women, from the earliest times,
have ever been held in great respect
in Ireland The Brehon law, by
which the inhabitants of the terri
tories outside the Pale were govern
ed from long before St. Patrick's
time, to the reign of James |. and
according to whose provisions the
people in many parts of the country
continued, up to a comparatively re-
cent PERIOD to arrange their affairs
and settle their disputes, secured to
women the rights of property, and
provided for their rational independ-
ence in far more effectual way
than was contemplated by other
codes. In social life the spirit of
the Brehon law was embodied and
transmitted to succeeding genera
tons, in the customs and manners
of the people. One cannot read the
annals of Ireland without observing
how important was the position &C.
cupied by the women in Erin. ALL
according to their degree, were ex-
pected to fill a Fart, both influential
and honorable, in the constitution
of the clan. A considerable share
of the internal administration of the
princirality was intrusted to the wife
of the chieftain or provincial king.
The duties of ospitality-onerou
and constant, and precisely defined
by the Brehon law-were exercised
by her. To her was intrusted the
care of the poor and suffering. She
was expected to be an encourager
of learning, and friend to the OIL
lambs or professors, benefactor to
the churches and a generous helper
of the religious orders.

ST. PAUL STEAM

Back in the year of 1882, the St.
Paul Steam Laundry came forth into
the open light of day, on its mission
of cleanliness and sanitary. conditions.
289-295 Rice Street, is the place of
business, as two whole floors are oc-
cupied with space of 12O times 100
feet on each floor. 1t is in fine brick
building now belonging to the COM
pany, and amply adequate to contain
the prosperous business which it en-
closes. Over eighty people are en-
ployed in the work of serving the
public, and we wish to call your atten-
ton to the display advertisement
which this concern has on the cover
of the present issue. Mr.. w. B. Web

"a trip such as we have taken is ex-
tremely hard on any automobile, owing
to the fact that all roads are strange,

and lesser ones, which are as hard or

used on grade two-or three miles long,
so that use must be made of the motor

car under control, on one of these long,
steep, winding and dangerous descenIs.
In order that any reasonable mileage be
made, one must run at 20 to % miles per
hour when the opportunity offers. But

great, and the wonder is that as many

as was the case.

I'VE were all mighty glad to get home

Harry Hoar put his Overland car
into regular service this week as an
auto stage from Orofino to Weippe,
making the round trip daily. The
stage leaves Orofno every afternoon,
just after the arrival of the Lewiston
Spokane train, and returns in the
morning, arriving at Orofino in time
to catch the outgoing passenger at
7:l0. This gives Weippe daily
round trip service, and will be a
great convenience to the travelling
public. The service seems to be re-
ceiving good patronage, and Mr.. Hoar
is giving the public the first rapid
transit over this route The opening
of the new Fords creek grade has
made this service possible.

Oppose Long Bonds.

Ben Dixon was down from Gilbert
yesterday. He said the people want
all the facts bearing on the proposed
issue, and are opposed to more than
ten year bonds, which is ample, with
one mill year sinking fund to liq-
uidate the bonds. 1t is the UNDER
standing of the Republican that the
commissioners propose to pay the
bonds out in ten year by levy of one
mill for bond redemption, this money
to be loaned at per cent. as it comes
in. 1t would be bad thing to bor-
row $50, 900 and make no provision to
pay it off, paying interest twenty
years or longer. The Republican will
oppose such an proposition. This
paper will make an effort to get q
statement on these matters from the
commissioners for next issue.

Near the big resort is smaller one
owned by May Patterson and operated
by her up to the time the present
county officials went into power. Then
May and all her ilk vanished from the
scene. She is now operating at
Clarkia in the adjoining county where
the county officials are winking at the
same condition that existed in Clear
water county.
At times as many as thirty prosti-
tutes held sway in these two resorts,
and conservative estimate gives
$500, 900 as the money the laboring men
of Elk River spent at these resorts.
The daily average cash receipts of
these resorts was $500.
We reached these houses at dusk.
and spent an hour about the premises.
Everything was silent as the tomb.
The houses were deserted. One was
locked, and the furniture and furnish
ings still in place. But the other.
owned by May Patterson, was empty.
The door stood open. One window,
sash, glass and all was gone. A
small garden plot nearby had gone to
seed, overrun by weeds. All was
silence and desolation. AS we started
back to town an empty whiskey jug
protruded it's neck from the well-worn
path, now overgrown with grass,
silent reminder of bygone days.
We were told this property is held
in hope that another election may bring
about the defeat of officials RESPONSE
BILE for law enforcement, and that
once more Elk River may enjoy the
primrose paths of dalliance unmoles-
ted; that once more the earnings of
labor may flow into channels of vice
ard crime and licentiouness. But it
will never be with the votes of Elk
River citizens. The people there are
proud of their good name and reputa-
tions, and glad that at last their CON-
munity has been freed from loath-
some mess of putrid rottenness.
Elk River is today a decent place
for women and children. 1t is as
orderly as any town on earth. It's
citizens are as law abiding and as
clean morally as those of any COM
munity. They are ashamed of the
past, forced on them by public officials
who winked at lawlessness and vice,
and encouraged crime by permitting
things that always lead to crime. The
stories told of conditions in Elk River
during her balmy days were modest
statements compared to what actually
took place. The truth would he too

Farmer Killed Near Peck.

r. j. Mcconnell. we'll known
farmer of Pennington ridge near Mel
rose, was killed Wednesday at 2 o.
clock when a Ford car in which he
was riding coming down the Russell
ridge grade to Peck turned over and
crushed him. The front seat caught
the unfortunate man across the chest.
The car belonged to Fred Rhodes of
Rubens, who was driving. The
trouble was caused by the brakes
giving way, the car shooting ahead.
1t was run into the bank which it
climbed and then toppled over across
the road, pinning the driver by the
legs, but not seriously injuring him.
Mr.. Rhodes freed himself and lifted
the car from Mr.. Mcconnell who was
conscious and able to crawl out. The
man got up, walked around the car,
but laid down and was dead in few
minutes. The victim, man of about
so, leaves family.

Good Grass Land.

Timothy and clover do exceptionally
we'll on cut-over lands in the vicinity
of Elk River. Seed sown among the
stumps soon springs into life and bring
forth most abundant growth. Out
in the woods, along the trails, with
out cultivation, here and there may
be found patches of timothy and
clover showing rank growth. 1t simply
shows what this pine land will do
when the timber is removed, and that
without wasting time digging out
stumps, it is possible to convert it
into valuable pasture land capable of
supporting vast herds of livestock.
Berries of all kinds do particularly
we'll, and some fine gardens may be
seen in the back yards in Elk River.
AS the timber is removed the land,
even where steep, can be converted
into pasture by the sowing of clover
and timothy, and considerable rural
population maintained. The removal
of the timber will tend to modify the
climate.

Elk River is a modern little city,
nesting in the valley through which
flows Elk creek, one of the greatest
trout streams in the world. In the
foreground, and the center about
which gravitates all else in the town,
is the big mill, the finest, with one
exception, in the world. Everything
is moved by electricity. This feature
is splendid, and Elk River, being fur
nished by the company, has most ex-
cellent lights. Two hundred men are
required to operate the plant when run
day shifts only, and another hundred
when operated night and day The
night shift is now laid off owing to
general business stagnation throughout
the United States. The town has a
modern sewerage system, beautiful
public school building, many attrac-
tive homes, and the neatest. cleanest
stores we have seen in any town of
equal size. The windows are modern
and the taste with which goods are
displayed would do credit TO any city.
One is lead to the conclusion that
the business men are alive.

The Republican is willing to let
Latah county run itself without help
from this side Of the line, but when
Latah county bootleggers slop over
into Clearwater county it is our bust :
ness, and the failure of Latah county
officials to enforce the law is matter
that concerns Clearwater county.
Clearwater county has cleaned
house. We have sheriff and dep
uties, backed by an able county at
torney who have stopped bootlegging.
We would like to see the Bovill bunch
come over into Clearwater conuty and
try to operate. They can't do it.
And if the Latah county officials are
what they ought to be, if they are
competent, bootlegging can't be
carried on at Bovill, or at any other
place in Latah county.
What Latah county needs is the
resignation of County Attorney Moore,
also of Sheriff j. j. Campbell, the
firing of Deputy Sheriff Pat Malone,
and the appointment in their stead OF
officers who will enforce the law.
Bovill and Elk River are similarly
situated. Both have been tough prop
ositions. They said we could never
stop bootlegging at Elk River They
said there was no use trying to drive
the prostitutes out of that town. They
laughted when it was proposed to
clean house by electing officials who
would enforce the law. Last fall the
people ousted the old officials, who
claimed they were doing their duty,
and who said it was impossible to gel
evidence and convict prostitutes and
bootleggers. But in sixty days from
the time Smith and Sullivan took

tion ceased, and the open and fragrant

Laws Now Enforced at Elk River.

There are those who contend it is
impossible to enforce the law, but Elk
River seems to offer a most convincing
proof that where there is lawlessness
the trouble may be laid at the door of
those whose duty it is to enforce the
law, because today, under the admin
istration of Sheriff Sullivan, with a
county attorney doing his duty, Elk
River is as dry as the Saharah desert.
Bootlegging has ceased. If any
exists it is not noticeable. Nobody
can discover any evidence of the
traffic. There is no drunkenness.
Inquiry last week disclosed the fact
that the mill crews are now always on
time, always ready for work Monday
mornings, and that with one hundred
less men, owing to no night shift, the
bank deposits have increased mater
tally. One of the foremen told the
Republican editor his crew is now al
ways in condition to work, and that
there is no longer the Monday morning
decentralization among the men.
Others verified this statement, and a
week spent in Elk River disclosed no
violation of law.
Deputy Sheriff Peter Shea is
looking after law enforcement in Elk
River. And it is with no small degree
of pleasure and pride that the Clear
water Republican congratulates this
officer on the clean, efficient record
he is making as public official. He
is held in wholesome respect by the
people where he labors, and because
he is honest, determined and capable,
and because he does his duty and re-
spects his oath of office, and because a
violation of law means certain prose
cution, the law is not being violated.
RESORTS HAVE DISAPPEARED
In company with Deputy Sheriff
Shea the Republican editor walked out
mile to the somewhat famous Red
Light district where May Patterson
and others held sway up to the time
the present county officials went into
power pledged to enforce the law

county attorney, sworn to enforce thu
law, let these house exist.
