FARMERS AND THE TARIFF.
The furmers can hardly approve
the republican standpat program,
when they find the price of wheat,
oats, corn and cotton declining
and the price of all they buy rapid
ly advancing. Where does the
boasted protection to agriculture
come in under the present protec
tive tarifT and how arc farmers pro
tected, although the tariff law pro
vides that 26 cents a bushel on
wheat and 16 cents a bushel on
oats he collected on imports? The
price of wheat is now lower than it
lias been for ten years or since
the present tariff law was enacted
in August, 1897.
Those farmers, who are repub
licans, should demand of their
"standpat" leaders a fair deal, and
if the agricultural machinery trust,
the barbed wire combine, the
lumber association and the clothing
trusts, are to still he protected by
the tariff in charging exhorbitant
prices for their products, that
some method of raising the price of
cereals and keeping them stable
should offset trust high prices.
The fact is, however, that no
tariff can protect the farmer on his
products, of which the surplus must
be sold abroad as the price paid by
the foreigners for that surplus
fixes the price here. The only
relief that the farmer can receive
is to he able to buy in the chea pest
market and this he can never do as
long as the trusts, that controll all
he buys, are protected by the tai iff
from competition. It is plain
therefore that the farmer who votes
for a republican congressman, is
voting to'contiuue 'the protection
to the trusts and for higher prices,
with no protection to help the
price of his owu products.

The "eight hour" day witli
which the administration is trying
to head off the labor revolt, looks
rather slim when confronted hy the
proposition of,the French socialists.
M. Jules Guesde's
prbgram is
"eighty minutes" work a day.
. But then most socialists don't
want to work at all.
There is nothing so pleasant as
that bright, cheerful, at-peace-with
the-world feeling when you sit
down to your breakfast. There is
nothing so conducive to good work
and good results. The healthy
man with a healthy rniud and body
is a better fellow, a better workman
and a Imtter citizen than the man
or woman who is handicapped "by
some disability, however slight. A
slight disorder of the stomach will
disarrange your body, thoughts
and your disposition. Get away
Irom the inorbiduess and the blues.
Keep your stomach in tune a.id
both your brain and body will re
spond. Little Indiscretions of over
eating can be easily corrected and

much 1 letter man you are. Try a

Improve the Roads.
Editor of Free Press:
The citizens of Grangeville can
do nothing of more practical im
portance to the future growth of
Grangeville than to promote and
aid in the repair of the roads lead
ing into the city. The railroad
right-of-way is now all bought and
paid for, and the road will be
structed thereon.
just where to expend our money in
(lermaneut improvement of the
public highways leading into the
city. The roads north and west
require immediate attention as
soon as the fall rains set in. The
use of a "split log road drag"
after every rain will provide good
highways which will do more to
promote local trade than anything | <>n
else ever suggested. It will also i
give the farmers of the country dis- j
tricts an object lesson whicb'tliey j
will tie quick to follow when they i
see how easily the roads can be im-1
proved at small expense by the use
of simple apppliauces. The new j
road recently opened in the west j
of town shows wiiai can lie done
in that direction.
The most potent factor iu the j on
county seat election which result
ed in transferring the county seat ;
from Mt. Idaho to Grangeville
the horrible condition of the road
between the two towns. Now it !
is absolutely sure that unless the
road through the Pearson and i
Yates lanes west of tow n, are not
speedily improved, the growth of
Grangeville will be materially we
affected detrimentally. The far
mere west and north will not haul we
UMlr grain here over bad roads and
better roa(l8 exist to tl,e west
•f»«n. They will haul their box
M**» to the new town, or else to I The
con
We now know
w as
I such station» a» may be established
between here and the new town.
! A similar condition exists to the
north. We must improve the roads
leading into this town, or G ange
ville will be up against it. Let the
Commercial Club spend its surplus
in road improvements during the
'coming fall and spring, and by the
time the railroad is in operation
we shall then be in shape to reap
the benefit by having the farmers
bring their grain here for ship
ment, and thereby get the benefit
of their local trading. This matter
of good roads is of far-reaching
importance to £>raugeville, and it
should lake precedence over every
thing else if we are to maintain our
supremacy as the commercial cen
ter of Camas Prairie.
The citizens of Orangeville
could not spend a few dollars to
better advantage than in having
some of these "split log road drags"
made and giving one to each of the
supervisors in all the tributary
road districts, with instructions
how and when to use it. They are
only useful when used after a good
rainfall. When so used they are
of wonderful advantage, and when
once used the farmers will cry for
their continual use

Catarrh Cannot be Cured,
with local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitution
al disease, and in order to cure it
you must take internal remedies.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, and acts directly on the
blood and mucuous surfaces. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is not a quack medi
cine. It wan prescribed*hy one of
the best phisicians in the country
for years and is a regular prescrit)
tion. It is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting direct
ly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combination of the two in
gredients is what produces such
wonderful results in curing Cat
arrah. Send for testimonials free.

The Lewiston Fair.
The comiug Lewislon-Ularkston
fair which will he held at Lewiston
October 8 to 13 promises to be the
greatest general exhibition ever
attempted hy the people of the
Gateway City." -No expense oi
paius will he spared to make the
event one to loug he remembered.
No person familiar with exhibi
tions, such au the Lewistou-Clarks
ton fair, can doubt that they are
of great practical and educational
beueiii to the community in which
they are held. The agricultural,
horticultural aud stock interest
owe much of their development
to these exhibitions, and it is the
absolute aim of the present board
to contiuue and improve the line
of work in all departments. With
this end in view, the amount of
money offered this year has been
considerably increased. The fruit
prize list and stock divisions bave
been carefully revised and pre
miums increased, and in addition
several special premiums of merit
have been addpd for district and
individual displays.
The blooded stock leatuies will be
larger and more numerous than
ever. Several of the greatest herds
of the northwest will he represent
ed and the management is assured
of an extremely large entry list
from local stockmen.
The racing during the exhibition
will he stronger than in previous
yeurs. Most of the California,
northwest and local horses will he
there. The presence of the Cali
fornia contingent was made possi
ble owing to the Sau Francisco
disaster. These horses are now
racing at Seattle and the owners
have announced that they will at
tend the Lewiston meeting. The
weeks racing will provide many
notable contests and the hieakiug
of track records should be looked
for.

Derr Mister Editer:
I te a pur I y swetty time to
do ennj mosr then a feller bee to
this hot wether. Its bin purty hot
sum of the time, hut not u bad az
sum think, our crops are purty
gude after all, 1 hev bio purty
bizzy gitting my crop harvested and
find it better then i thot it wood
he, my wheat and barley iz gude
but my oats wunt be much, but its
mity iiot rite now and dryin things
up mity fast. 1 hev got sum of
tiie biggest and best punkens,
squashes and ruttabagas yon ever
seed, I will bring in sum and let
you hev on my subscription az
sacks and twine are so darned high
we farmers wont hev much munuy
this fall, especially after we pay
our taxes and expenses of runnin
the county the past year.
I see the old parties hev both
had their Kunvenshuns and put
up tlier tickets so we know now
what to dew.
Wuzzent it funny to see how the
republicans changed ther plans
after they got to Pocatello, most of
the northern republicans sed thet
the state kunvenshun wuz not he
the plase to nominate a senator,'
they sed it wuz unconstitutional,
thet it wuz uot the law, and thet
it wuz rong to nominate a senator,
but they wood let the legislature
elect him as the law provided, but
when Borah got in with the Mor
mans and got control of the kun
venshun, they fell all over one
auuther to git in the band wagon,
and they all Hopped over in the
twinkle of an eye, and voted fur
Borah, how is this for honesty, and
the law? Mister voter just think
this over and dont let them poli
ticians pull the wool over you euny
longer, vqte for the man and not
the party jist az we are all going
to du out bear.
The Republicans believe in
''standin pat" and hev stood pat
with tne Mormans in this state,
the Democrats hev turned the
Mormans down and said "you cant
play in our back yard enny
longer" now who iz rite, let rite
rule and we will all be better oil,
the Pointed States Senate has sed
that Smooty cant stay in congress,
and we ought to stand pat on that,
and not let the desire fur oftis lead
us astray, you kin all see the in
consistency of the Republicans and
see how quick they kin change,
jist look at the Pocatello kuuven
shun az a sample of tber sincerity,
and se how they hollered about
Borah afore they got ther an how
soon they changed afterwords.
But gee whiz, its tu hot to rite,
Ih* Bwet runs down ou the ink
an blots it so yure printers kant
reed it.

For Sunday Closing.
To the Editor Free Press:
Last year there was a voluntary
Sunday-closing movement, which
prevailed ti quite a large extent in
our city, but of late there has been
a growing tendency to disregard it.
The conditions that existed a
year ago to make such a move
desirable si ill exist.
A weekly rest day is one of the
rudimentaiy things in human ex
perience. Some
wealthy, retired,
Boston sail, that bis observation,
extending over a long period of
years led h m to say that without
exception, nhoae who disregard the
weekly rent day period, failed,
physically, financially and other
wise.
Money making in legitimate
ways is proper; but is it not be
neath the dignity of strong, vigor
ous, healthy, manhood; is it not a
species of idolatry, for men to per
mit their business or their occupa
tion to make slaves of them?
Should not men be masters of their
business or profession and not
suffer themselves to be mastered by
it? Was ever a greater truth
spoken than that: ''A man's life
consisteth not in the abundance of
the things that he posesses?"
When the end of life comes, it
will seem but a day's span to the
longest lived among us: then, per
haps not till then, will we realize:
"This nigh i thy bouI shall lie re
quired of thee, and then whose
shall these things bt?" Let life,
not material.things be the goal!
Are we aware that a prosperity
that places commercial interests
above human interests, that does
not place
above the
short lived
it is in San
ville.
Prosperity that deserves the
name, that is permanent and last
ing, has retpect for the things that
make better manhood and purer
and stronger womanhood. Where
human rigits are duly regarded
property rights are safe.
Let us unitedly help to make
Orangeville what we want to see it
become, a place where life and
properly w|ll be safe, and where
peace and quietness prevail, and
where the chief concern of
years ago a
merchant of
the rights of persons
