Lewiston, Idaho, Jan. telegrams brought news of the election of Henry Keltfeld of this county States senator to succeed Senator Dubois.

The Information quickly ran over the town, and created a flutter of excitement. Tf was received with general approval and pleasure, as Mr. Heltfeld Is universally respected for his many admirable qualities, his sterling character and sound Judgment. He undoubtedly owes his election to the fact that he was a democrat before he became a populist. In fact, more people here would class him as a democrat now than as a populist.

Ho Is conservative In his political beliefs, and entertains none of the advanced views of the extreme populists. His homo is 12 miles from Lewiston, where he has one of the best farms and finest orchards In Idaho.

Jan. bank stateS PRICES ARE NO HIGHER JANUARY A MONTH OF DISAPPOINTMENT IN BUSINESS. Cotton, Ir and Railroad Stocka While Cloth Fabrics Har ly Hold Their Own. New York, Jan. -R.

G. Dun Company's Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say: January bus been a month of disappointment. Nearly everybody had promised himself a land of milk and honey after Ne looks like standing still to men in suen Year's, and the slow spiing state of mind. Moreover, there are multitudes throughout the country who have been taking large ventures In advance or apart from tholr regular business, because they expected prices fall as yet to bring them profit. Wheat has declined severely, cotton has scarcely risen enough to pay brokerage, wool holds steady, woolen goods hardly change In price, iron and Its products decline, leather Is sluggish, hides are lower, for some shoe manufacturers accept a shade lower prices; the average of railroad stocks Is slightly lower than It was December 31, and the advance in trust slocks has been small.

To traders In such properties the month has been disappointing. Yet during the past week the record shows that 10 iron works have started and only two have stopped, 13 woolen works have started and nine more are about ready to start, while three have stopped. Similar things are seen in other Industries, and the additional establishments are not starting without some increase In orders received. The decline in wheat cents In spite of an official report of yield far below estimates generally accepted, which reflects perception of the error of the report and also of the Influence of enormous exports of corn Instead of wheat, 80,000,000 bushels In seven months. When two bushels of rise In prices.

But os over six bo had for less than one bushel of wheat it largely preferred in European markets, and In January 7,859,127 bushels of have gone abroad Torn Atlantic ports, against 5,306,349 last year, while Atlantic exports of wheat and flour have been 6,536,154 bushels, against 8,403,765 last cum year. As the great portion of corn prevents much advance In Its price, its outgo affects tho demand for wheat, and a heavy liquidation of speculation has occurred, with the price of corn daily changing. The largest article of export at this treason goes out freely, but cotton looks less attractive to traders because American millers are laboring over plans a great surplus of goods, and prices have declined. reduce Takings of northern spinners have been in flve months bales less than last year and 423,000 hales less than in 18SH-05. The sales of wool In January have been surpassed In that month, nor In any other month except last November and July of 1896 and 1892.

In tho earlier years sudden demand lor consumption was In the latter months of the year, but orders never were small In November, and had been small In January compared with the purchases or anticipated possible duties. The price has remained about steady. Iron and steel show little gain, the production having increased so largely before the gradual enlargement of demand for finished products has not that Increase.

I have been chiefly disturbed, I believe, because of my inability to discover satisfactory grounds for my right to Join those who celebrate the semi-centennial of a medical association. "If In passing through that period In boyhood when the desirable choice of future ociivity seemed to rest between running away from home to be a sailor and staying at home to bo a doctor, I Inclined toward the more quiet and orderly of these pursuits, this surely furnlshes no basis ut this late day for a claim for relationship to the medical fraternity." ne spoke a humorous vein of what the medical profession owes to his class, who by Indulging all sorts of Irregularities allow the doctors to make fat fees.

He then spoke of the great progress that has been made In the practice of medicine. Contlnulng, the president paid tribute to the old-time family doctor. Though Ignorant of many of the remedies and appliances now In the president said the old-time physician supplied the deficiency by hard-headed Judgment, well observed experience and careful nursing.
