The farmers of the Athol, Spirit Lake and Belmont dis tricts are to be congratulated on the splendid agricultural exhibits which they had at the Spokane-Interstate fair last week. Much skill and hard work was represented in the preparation and arrange ment of the artistic displays and it is pleasing to note that .all secured recognition in the awarding of the prizes. With the state and tax levy reduced from $1.60 tj $1.35 on the $ too, the citi z ms who foot the bills have reason to feel thankful, further reduction is hoped for next year. county A There is a more or 'less well founded suspicion that there is too much so-called politics and not enough science in the handling of most affairs of government.

On entering the room one's thought? would be, "How comfortable and i restful lnoklng! A wide buy window extending to j j j the celling overlooked the green campus, across it were draped two heavy richly-colored curtains, which | when pushed back disclosed a wide window seat with pillows of various J shapes and colors. The curtains to the windows were of spotless white net. Across the room from the door was a narrower ^window, also with white net curtains. The walls of the room were white. The furniture was of old mission style. In the center of the room stood a small library table and on It, lu the center of a white scarf, stood a tall vase, In which pink roses were gracefully arranged. pile of books lay on one corner of the table. The chandelier above the table was faintly tinted with green. On the j wall opposite the large window was a framed picture of a large handsome house, with wide windows and shaded A . 5, popla # r8 u that * rew ln the yard ' be name of the picture was 'illouie!

The carpet was of well blended colors, chiefly brown and green. In one corner of the room, where It was not so well lighted the rest of the room, was a door which, if opened, would show the wardrobe of tbe occupant of the room. Tbe woodwork, the picture frames, and the furniture of the room j were stained a rich brown that blend el harmoniously with the curtains before the bay windows.

Mr E. P. Ripley, president of the Santa Fe Railroad, in reference to relations existing between the faces when asked to give his view3 railroad and the public said in P-, 1 ,. . îîeîüently we hear statements to tho effect that these relations are improving, that the era of railroad baiting has passed and that public senti ment now favors treating the railroads fairly. As yet this change in public sentiment, if any such there be, is not effective in results. "It is true that in the legislatures of the southwestern states during the past winter there were fewer unreasonable and unreasoning laws passed than usual, but a consideration of the hostile bills introduced shows that there is still reason for much disquiet even though they were defeated by more or less of a majority. ... "Moreover, the idea that the railroads have been harshly treated does not seem to prevail In the offices of the State Railroad Commissions, which seem to cherish a notion that their business is not to act as an arbitrator between the railroads and the people, but which proceed on the theory that the railroads are able to take care of themselves and that their duty is to act as attorney for tho people even though in so doing they deny justice to the railroads. It requires no argument to demonstrate that the railroads entitled to Justice equally with other citizens and taxpayers. That they have not received it and are not receiving it is perfectly susceptible of proof. That they have practically no recourse in the courts has also been determined. "The situation therefore is that the people, through th 6 ir representatives, must elect whether the services of the railroads shall be adequately compen sated or not; and it requires no fortune teller or soothsayer to predict that in the long run tb'» service will take the class that is paid for and no better. "The natural competition between the railroads and the natural desire to perform first-class service has heretofore resulted in giving the public much more than it was willing to pay for. Continuation of this will be impossible and no laws, however drastic, can long accomplish the impossible.", at a Odd Bits Of News.

Address -The Tribune, Rathdrum. on Pushed Ahead By Advertising Jk (f<5 a a Br-A 1 b?jy V ) A British journal recently comment ed on the fact that whereas the tea grown in China was formerly the most popular, it now occupies second place, while Ceylon tea has become the favor- j ite with all classes of people. The 1 question, What has brought about this j change of taste? is not, however, a dif- j ficult one to answer. As a prominent firm of dealers pointed out, Ceylon tea hrs been liberally advertised for years, while the Chinese product has not been advertised at all. The change noted has been wrought during these years, and it is therefore reasonable to conclude that advertising is the prin cipal cause thereof. As a result of ad vertising t!te consumption of Ceylon tea has Increased so rapidly that in many cases China tea lias practically been forced out of the market.
