ORANGEVILLE, IDAHO
OFFICIAL CITY AMD CODMTY PAPER
- - 1906
Thursday, March 8,
The confession of 8teve Adams,
one of ths parties under arrest at
Boise for complicity in the 8teun
enberg murder, adds another dra
matic chapter to the history of
that awful crime and further impli
cates the bead officers of the
Western Federation of miners who
are under arrest. It also further
emphasizes the bad taste of one or
two newspapers and a few miners'
unions who have openly declared
their belief in the innocence of the
accused without knowing what
evidence there might be against
them. They have criticized the
officers who placed them under
arrest and would imply by their
remarks that Moyer, Heywood
and Petti bone were incapable of
committing crime. For the sake
of humanity let us hope they are
innocent for it is hard to think
that so great a number of intelli
gent Americans could be banded
together for the sole purpose of
committing murder. However,
circumstances have pointed to
wards them as being implicated
and in justice to the prisoners
and every honest member of the
Federation the evidence should be
thoroughly investigated. If they
are guilty the Federation should
be the first to want to find it out
and get rid of them.
If they are
innocent they will undoubtly be
acquitted aud lose none of the re
spect of honest people by stand
ing trial. This can only be de
termined through the courts and
open declarations of belief in
either their guilt or innocence
can only array one class against
another and binder rather than
help in the accomplishment of
J ustice.
The postal department is re-ad
vertising for bids to carry the mail
on the routes from Orangeville to
Stites, Orangeville to Cottonwood
and Orangeville to Florence. It is
not known why the first bids were
rejected bnt it reported that the
department considered them too
high. - It is pretty well known
that no previous contractor has
ever made anything out of these
routes and it is about time that
bids were made high enough to
euable the contractor to give good
service and still have a reasonable
profit. The people are entitled to
the best service that can be had in
mail service, yet while the govern
ment spends millions for show and
almost worthless projects, the poor
star route contractor is ground
down to starvation wages so that
he can not give the service requir
ed and often is unable to meet his
bille.
Candidates for United Senators
are stirring up quite a teapot tem
pest over the question as to
whether or not the republican
state convention shall nominale a
man for that place. There is no
occasion for the public to get ex
cited over this matter. Nothing is
involved in the problem, further
than that some particular candiate
thinks that he can manipulate the
convention and that such an opera
bouffe nomination will have some
influence with the legislature. Op
position to the scheme comes from
hated rivals who fear that its or
ginator may thus win a point in
the contest. Its merely one move
in the game political, that we dear
people need take no interest in.—
Elmore Bulletin.
The organization of a strong
Commercial Club for
Grangeville is a right step in the
right direction. With tlie speedy
advent of the railroad the town
and country will make strides to
wards population and increased
diversity of products. Consequent
ly the field will be wide open for
the introduction of dairies and
creameries, cheese factories, pack
ing houses and other industries
which will put a stop to the pre
vailing practice of shipping out
raw material aud importing the
manufactured product,
enterprise which will tend to keep
money at home deserves encourage
ment, and no Bmall part of the
duties of the Commercial Club will
no doubt be given to the support
of such meritorious industries.

For any one, unless they're tough.

And anyway a crow qan't crow,
So inebby roosters stand more show
It looks that way. But I dunno.

There is more catrrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until
the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced it a
local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to care with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a consti
tutional disease and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufact
ured by F. J.Cheny &Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acts directly
on the blood and mucus surface of
the system. They offer one hund
red dollars for any case it fails to
