OUTRAGEOUS
-t
NEGLECT.
In the effort for open rivers to the
sea, the Lewiston Tribune sees "the
one great movement which Idaho can
bestir herself to work for in all sea
sons, under all circumstances. It is
a movement that even the politicians
can stand together on. It is a moveH
ment that contains the merits of the
silver contention in raising the price
of wheat, with the price payable in
dollars that contain all of the pur
chasing power claimed as the merit
of the gold standard."
But the Tribune foresees that "the
sound of many voices will be futile
unless energetic action ensues." A
appropriation is needed, and it ought
to be made by congress. The im
provement has the cordial approval
of one of the most eminent engineer
boards which has ever passed on a
public improvement. That recom
mendation was made in 1 893, but it
has not been heeded, for the plain
reason that the congressional delega
tions from Idaho, Washington and
Oregon have been remiss in their duty
to their constituents. It is au amaz
ing fact that the estimates now be
lore congress omit the one river im
provement which is of overshadowing
importance to the Pacific northwest.
Half a million dollars 13 recommended
for Gray's Harbor, and other vast
sums for Oregon harbors, but not a
dollar is recommended for the im
provement of the upper Columbia
and bnahe rivers.
This outrage will continue until the
people stir themselves and "smoke
out" the senators and representatives
who are taking their cue from the
selfish railroad interests. An open
river will bring down freight rates
with a rush, and the railroad manag
ers know it. Hence their underhand
ed opposition. Spokesman Review.
price tbe public will bay only the better,
so that while our profits may be smaller
on a single scale they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get tbe public to know
your make is the beet?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both: are certain to
be tried and the public will very quickly
pass judgment on them and use only tbe
better one.
This explains tbe large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough' remedy. Tbe people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended
upon.. They may. occasionally take up
with some fashionable novelty put forth
with exaggerated claims, but are certain
to return to the one remedy that they
know to be reliable, and for coughs,
colds and croup there is nothing equal
to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. For
sale by Blakeley & Houahton.
BUSINESS LOCALS.
Nearly all our presidends have
made national tours similar to that
undertaking by President McKinley.
President Washington, even in the
o'.d days of difficult travel, when
there vere no railroads, poor stage
roads and uncomfortable stages,
visited Massachusetts and New
Hampshire. President Monroe visited
New England and traversed Vermont
in 1825, on the occasion of the visit
of General Lafayette to that state,
President Jackson visited Boston and
was given a degree by Harvard col
lege. President Van Buren was an
accomplished mm socially, and at
tended a large ball at Saratoga
Springs, where he was insulted public
ly by the widow of his old-time polit
ical rival, DeWitt . Clinton. Presi
dent Van Buren bowed to Mrs. Clin
ton and extended his hand, which she
refused and deliberately turned her
back on him. President Lincoln had
no time for national tours, but An
drew Johnson "swung around the cir
cle" without much credit to himself.
Since the day of President Johnson
all our presidents have made a nation
al tour of greater cr less extent.
Grant visited Boston ; Hayes visited
the Pacific coast and attended the
centennial of the battle of Benning
ton in August, 1877; Garfield was
just starting for Massachusetts when
he was shot; President Cleveland
made a tour of the South, and Presi
dent Harrison visited the whole
country, including the Pacific coast.
President Arthur made no formal
tour, but visited the Florida fishing
grounds and make a trip acrass the
plains along the line of our army
posts. Oregonian.

How to Look Good.
Good looks are really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy
condition of all the vital organs. If the
liver be inactive, you have a bilious look ;
if your kidneys be effected, you have a
pinched look. Secure, good health and
you will surely have good looks. "Elec
tric Bitters" ia a good Alternative and
Tonic. Acts directly on the stomach
liver and kidneys. Purifies the blood,
cures pimples, blotches and boils, and
gives a good complexion. Every bottle
guaranteed. Sold at Blakeley & Hough

Pains in the chest when a person has
a cold indicate a tendency toward pneu
monia. A piece of flannel dampened
with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
bound on to the chest over the seat of
pain will promptly relieve the pain and

monia. This same treatment will cure
