MAΫEW TO CONTEST.
Ile Charges Bribery and Fraud in the
Idaho Election.
( —
From the Spokane Daily Spokes
man, we learn that Hon. Alexatider
Mayhew, lato Democratic candidate
for Congress in Idaho, will contest
the election of Willig Sweet, on the
ßronnds of bribery, intimidation
and fraud at the polls.
Judge May hew has no hop'e
before the present congress, which
reconvene« in December, but if the
Democrats have a majority in the
bouse of representatives to be
elected in November, will push the
contest.
Francis Agnew, chairman of the
Shoshone county Democratic Cen
tral committee, in an interview
with Spokesman reporter, among
other charges, said "The charge I
make against illegal voting is based
upon the statement of Mr. Pride of
lïoise City, that 600 Mormons in
south Idaho voted the Republican
ticket, and had they not voted that
way they would have been dis
franchised in accordance with the
test oath. It is also certain that
two or three hundred illegal votes
were cast in Latah county as other
places, all of which will be shown
up in the contest."

A Remarkable ltaok by Iter. T. De
Witt Talmag-e, D. 1).
This is said to be a year of re
markable books, but doubtless the
most remarkalble that will appear
for some time to come is Rev. T.
DeWitt Talmage's new work on
the "Life of Christ" and "Palestine
and its People." Some idea of
what the book contains and how it
was prepared may be obtained by
reading the following extract from
the Doctor's preface:
"In my American home, on the
Atlantic, on the Mediterranean, on
camel's back, on mule's lack, on
horseback, under chandelier, by
dim candle in tent, on Lake Gali
lee, in convent, at Bethel where
Jacob's pillow was stuffed with
dreams, and the angels of the lad
der landed; at the brook Elah,
from which little David picked up
ammunition of five smooth stones,
four more than were needed for
crushing like an egg-shell the skull
of Goliath; in the Valley of Ajalon,
over which, at Joshua's command.
Astronomy halted; on the plain of
Esdraelon, the battle-field of ages,
its long red flowers suggestive of
the blood dashed to the bits of the
horses' bridles; amid the shattered
masonry at Jericho, at Jerusalem
that overshadows all other cities
in reminiscence, at Cana where
plain water became festal beverage,
on Calvary whose aslant and rup
tured rocks Btill show the effects of
the earthquake at the awful hem
orrhage of the five wounds that
purchased the world's rescue, and
with my hand mittened from the
storm, or wet from the Jordan, or
bared to the sun, or gliding over
smooth table, this book has been
written."
This book will certainly be
worth reading and preserving. It
is not only a life of Christ from an
entirely new stand-point, but it is
also a very interesting history of a
country and people who occupy a
prominent place in the thoughts
and feelings of all Christian na
lio'ns. The large number of excel
lent pictures of places and scenery
in the Holy Land with whieh the
volume is illustrated, give it a
special interest and value. We
cannot nil go to Palestine, but this
elegant book, through the aid of its
pictures and Dr. Talmage's won
derful descriptions accompanying
them, brings Palestine to our very
doors. -The book is indeed a posi
tive necessity to a proper under
standing of tho Bible accounts of
pluws and events. We can under
stand and appreciate Bible history
all tho better when we see photo
graphic representations of the plac
es where this history was made.
"FROM MANGER TO THRONE"
marks a new era in the literature
of Bible Lands, and we aré not
surprised to learn that the demand
for the book is phenomenal. It is
sold on the exclusive territory bas
is, and persons desiring to secure
agencics will find the publishers'
announcement in another column.

tu vote at the Italy elections«
The politics of Boise county has
been very doubtful until the recent
election. ït is now generally con
ceded that neither side has any the
best of it, taking the vote on State
oflicers. Of course there was a
little scratching on both sides.
Willis Sweet got a majority of four.
Willson ran a little ahead of his
ticket, this being his county. Har
roun and Kelly, for Sehool Superin
tendent, are not known in this
county, neither personally nor by
reputation, so the vote on this
oflice, we think, will come the
nearest to a strict party vote Har
rouu, the Republican candidate,
received a majority of two. So we
figure the voters of Jioise county
evenly divided between the politi
cal parties. A great many voters
did not get to the polls, but if they
had all voted the result would have
been changed but little. There is
no other county in the State where
the parties are so evenly divided.
As the vote stood in the recent
election, it would be an even bet in
a Presidential election. But before
1892 many will come and some
will go, and by that time one of the
two parties may have a majority
large enough to crow over.—Idaho
