BOOSTING OROFINO.

1t does not follow, because the
Clearwater Republican keeps urging
people to get together and boost, that
we expect people will cease to differ
politically, or agree on many issues.
But is there any reason why the whole
community cannot get together on
things--the betterment of our town
and community, for instance? Good
roads, clean streets, good schools,
better business, these are matters
that permit Of no difference of opin-
ion, and on which all ought to agree
and join. But will the day ever
come when we can all get together on
politics? Will good citizens ever
silently submit to corrupt and rotten
county, state or national government ?
Will mothers and fathers ever serene
ly submit to the debauchery of their
sons by the Demon Rum? Will tax
payers ever view with unconcern the
reckless waste of public funds, and
keep silent lest the offenders get
rufiled and knock the town? The
Clearwater Republican is broad en-
ough to work with any citizen, how
ever we may differ on other matters,
for the upbuilding of Orofino. Any
thing that benefits Orofino will find
the editor of the Republican with his
coat off doing his level best. And
we have never permitted our personal
feelings to interfere with this policy.
We boosted the county fair and help
ed to make it success while l. r..
Crow, as secretary, was absorbing
and hogging the business for himself.
We spent more than 5000 of time
gathering exhibits and boostd the fair
in our paper. If Mr.. Grow ever did
anything or boosted through his paper
we never heard of it. He got $8l
worth of printing; the Clearwater
Republican got So. so worth. We kept
on boosting the fair. The trouble
with some people is that they are for
good roads or other things only SO
long as they can drive. We like the
booster who can get down and help
move the load. And we are not going
to dry up and quit fighting graft,
dirty politics, booze or other things
that we know are wrong. We will,
however, join hands with anybody
on good roads, better county fair,
the Chautauqua, clean streets, better
schools, more Orofino industries, or
any movement calculated to improve
the value of real estate. We are

MEAT FROM ARGENTINA,

Grangeville Globe: Since January
l, $4,000 quarters of beef, 102, OOC
carcasses of mutton, and lat, 600 car
casses of lamb have been sent into the
United States by Argentina. This
meat paid no revenue to the govern
ment nor did it cause any decrease in
the cost of living. If we did not
have such good market abroad just
at this time, the effects of Argentine
competition would be felt very keen
ly. Again. if there were duty or
meats, and it became advisable to dc
SO, we might use that duty as a lever
for little friendly bargaining with
Argentina which would give us q
better opportunity in her markets.
As it is, she gets the benifit of free
market for her greatest product and
charges us for the privilege of enter
ing her market.

JAMES J. I. Ill. THE BUILDER.

SNAA - AAnAA<t AAAC
James j. Hill died at his St. Paul
home Monday at 80. The following
day Charley Sweeney. the Spokane
mining magnate, died in Portland,
Oregon. One was great empire
builder, a man of action, whose life
was devoted to the material develop
ment of the great West. The other
was pioneer mining man of the
Occur d'Alenes. Both were men of
action, contributing to the general
happiness and prosperity of their
country, and adding to the wealth, as
well as giving employment to others.
The loss of these big men is more
than local. They played big parts in
the drama of life, and leave the
world little better for their having
lived. Both were great workers.
They transformed raw material into
finished product. AS compared to
Hill, Mr.. Sweeney was not a big
man, but he was useful man be-
cause he was of that courageous type
that pioneers and risks and wins out
because of grit and determination.
Perhaps in James J. Hill this country
never saw greater builder. His
was master hand, and the story of
his life is the story of half century
of empire building, the development
of the great Western Empire. BY
his genius he worked his way from a
poor boy TO the top, and lived to see
his transportation lines expand till
they circled the globe. He was q
friend of the West; he understood il
and appreciated its immense POSSIBLE
tiles. When Mr.. Hill passed away
the West lost one of its greatest men,
a man whose life is an inspiration to
young men. 1t is complete answer
to the weak who look meekly into the
future and lament that there is no op-
portunity for the poor boy.

People who are not willing to de-
fend the rights of others have no
right to the protection of any govern
ment. He who shrinks from duty is
weakling and unworthy the protec-
ton a decent government affords. This
applies to Mexico. American citizens
have rights that should be maintained
even at the cost of war, and people
who will not stand up for the rights
of its humblest citizens, be they in
Mexico or on the high seas, is coward
ly, weak and utterly selfish. We
have no use for any man who will
abandon his own home to accommo-
date two DULLES who want to throw
brick bats at each other. We believe
war carries with it no monopoly of
rights, and non-combatants should not
concede their rights to life, liberty
and the peaceful pursuit of happiness
and business. Is peace so sweet that
Americans want it at the price of
honor. .-lurder and robbery? Would
they have bowed the towards knee
and submitted to the British yoke?
Would they have suffered slavery and
division of the Union? Would they
have Knocked at Christ because he
dared to stand for right in the face
of mobs and insults and crucifiction :?
Is peace at any price worthy of a
civilized, self-respecting people? AS
for us we'd rather perish fighting for
liberty than surrender principle and
right. We'd rather see this country
perish from the earth than play the
spineless, cringing coward, our citi
zens the helpless creatures Of tyrants,
Mexican outlaws or the victims of
German submarines. A people who
will not protect their rights will not
long have rights to maintain.

A few days ago there was published
in the daily papers a statement that
as prohibition advanced the govern
ment's revenue from liquor taxes in
creased, the inference being that pro-
hibition increased the consumption of
alcoholic liquors. The report was
probably sent out by the Whiskey in
terests, who are making a frantic
effort to stem the tide that is sweep
ing this country, and the world. On
its face it appeared to support the
contention of the anti-prohibitionists
but it does nothing of the sort. The
facts are that if prohibition increases
the consumption of booze the manu-
facturers of whiskey and beer would
be out fighting for prohibition because
they naturally want to increase their
business. Prohibition has practically
stopped the booze business in north
Idaho. Any sane person knows there
is not one gallon sold today where a
open saloons 1t is fool who will
contend that prohibition has increased
the consumption of alcoholic liquors
anywhere on the Pacific coast And
if prohibition does increase the con-
sumption of liquors does any sensible
individual believe the manufacturers
of liquors would be frantically fight
ing the very thing they claim is in
creasing the consumption of their
business? The lie is too fiimsy to be
swallowed. Lewiston is fair sam
pie. Open the saloons in Lewiston
tomorrow and it will require carloads
of booze to meet the demands. But
the distillers tell us the less booze
is used the more their business grows
And SO the distillers fight prohibition.

Decoration Day was not officially
observed in Orofino. Flags were
flung to the breeze here and there,
and a large one was raised from the
pole at the fair grounds, the associa-
ton having arranged to float Old
Glory on all holidays. Some who
have relatives buried visited the GEN.
etery and placed flowers on the graves.
Many who made no outward show of
observing the day, remembered it in
their thoughts, and with gratitude
remembered the soldiers of '76 who
gave all they had to preserve this
nation. To all good citizens Decora-
tion Day is an occasion for solemn
reverie, when the heart swells with
patriotic emotions as we review the
past, and there is the impulse to
make this country all that it ought to
be. Decoration Day should be the oc-
casion for renew devotion to country,
and renewed zeal to be worthy sue
cessors Of illustrious ancestors. The
scars of the Civil War have now
healed. Today we are a united ma
tion, facing new duties and new prob
lens. If we are imbued with high
ideals no man reed fear for the fu-
ture of his country. With that pa
triotism and devotion to country that
inspired those whose sacrifices handed
a free government down to us, let
the present generation resolve to
maintain this nation and pass it on,
