Miss Pauline Davison departed
yesterday morning lor Weiser,
where she will enter the Weiser

Harry Hughes, the popular re
presentative of the house of B. H.
Coleman & Co., Boise, spent Tues
day night in this place.
There is a rumor afloat that wo
men who register and vole must
pay poll tax. This is a falsehood
and is being circulated for an object
by goldbugs.
Mrs. R. P. Chattin went to Mid
dleton yesterday as a delegate to the
Baptist Association which convenes
a t that place to-day, and Mrs. Glenn
followed by this morning's train.
Several incidents occurred in the
Silver Republican convention lust
Tuesday of which we would like toi
speak in this issue, hut time and
space forbids it until another issue,
of the Bulletin, However such
transactions will keep for a few
Weeks for publication.
We have neither time nor space
this week to speak of the individual
merits of the candidates for countv
positions on the silver ticket. But
scan it from top to bottom and you
must acknowledge that it is com
posed of good material and deserv
ing of the warm support of every
eilver mau and woman in Elmore
county.
R. T. Tustin, manager of the
Daisy mine and mill at Pine Grove,
Was a visitor here Tuesday and was
a formidable candidate for the
Democratic nomination fur State
Senator. Mr. Tustin is an experi
enced and aille mine manager and
genial gentleman and will doubtless
in the near future figure prominent
ly in the political affairs of Elmore
county.
The Bulletin evidently stepped
heavily upon the corns of some "one
horse capitalist" last week, to judge
by his squeal made in his organ.
Squeal on, but what we said about
the goldbugs "buying outright the
offscourings of the earth and intimi
dating the poor unfortunate laborer
is true, the assertions and ravings
of the fellow to the contrary not
withstanding.
The Baptist church was dedicated
last evening by Rev. L. G. Clark
assisted by Rev. McRevnolds of
Boise and Rev. Mason of die Con
^relational church of this place,
The members of the Baptist church
deserve much praise and credit for
the building Of this new church. It
° 1 ..
is a neat and commodious structure
and was built solely by faithful
members assisted by kind friends.
They did not call on the Building
Association for assistance but
banded themselves together and
worked Independently. Regular ser
vices will be held in this church once
a month. Prayer meeting Wednes
day evening of each week and Sun
day School at 10 o'clock every Sun
day.

suspended for a time, owing to liti
gation, and which for the benefit of
of all concerned wo trust will be of
ßhort duration.
Major Reed is an intelligent gen
tleman and practical miner and
gave an interesting account of his
former efforts and also of his second
enterprise now under way, which is
under the superintendency of W. R.
Lindsay. The company is known
as the Josephine Placer Mining
Company, with Fred R. Reed as
president and general manager, W.
R. Lindsay superintendent and E.
K. McKenzie secretary and treas
urer. Its property is on the Middle
fork of the Boise, about 25 miles
below Atlanta. Water for working
the ground will be taken from
Roaring river, Reed creek, No Name
creek, White creek and Trail creek.
With one exception the ditches are
all completed and the pipe and
giants will he on the ground in a
short time. There will be six giants.
As soon as the pipe arrives it will
he taken to the works and put in
place this fall. If the weather keeps
open a run will be made yet this
season, but everything will be in
readiness fur active mining opera
tions with the advent of spring.
Mr. Reed went from here to
Rocky Bar from whence he will go
by trail to his diggings, to survey
the route with the views of getting
his supplies from this town.
