Paine, of Payette, died Jan uary 1st of dropsy. Some Hlackfoot people are pasturing stock in the cemetery. Grass on the streets is getting short. The rotary snow plow is once more at work on the Wood River branch and things are looking natural. Boise has a bacteriological labora tory, but it can't succeed as long as it straddles the silver question. The Weiser Signal says there are prospects of many Montana people lo cating in Washington county. R. Bolon of Payette sold his billiard hall apparatus to James Poe and Johnny Good and has gone to painting pictures. Rev. Johnson has been appointed archdeacon for the Episcopal diocese of Idaho and Wyoming. Said to be a good man. Washington county is no more iu debt then it was Ave years ago and has acquired $15,000 worth of property in the mean time. A terrible, long-range war is in prog ress between the Paris Post and Mos cow Double-Standard. They are firing poetry at each other. On account of ill-health Asa Abbott has been obliged to retire from news paper work. The Busy Bee is now conducted by his brother. The Montpelier Examiner is in fa vor of displacing the fee system of paying public officers and returning to the fixed salary plan. The idea is cor rect. Elder Walter Hodge, of Paris, Idaho, who had been in Great Britain looking up his family tree, returned home last week, bringing the tree along with him it is hoped. The people of Idaho Palls are wrest ling over a proposition to bond the city for water works. One side says it's just the caper; the other side says it means disaster. Pocatello city council passed an or dinance prohibiting children under 16 to be on the streets between the hours of 7:30 p. m. and 4 o'clock a. m. That is a good ordinance. Simon Lewis, of Pocatello, calls John Kane a liar—general results: Arrest, trial and the county Bannock pays $30 costs. Nobody else hurt. Of the peo ple, by the people, etc. Says the Index: 'Tho old New York c.'.uul opposite Boise City upon which considerable work was done in 1800 but was abandoned and bas since been allowed to lapse, has been relocated by A. II. Egleston and others, who have formed a co operative stock company for the purpose of constructing an irri gation canal. About 10,000 acres of land will be reclaimed. in, for are eer all led it of ted p. to Henry Rindfeld was caught in a storm near Soda Springs and both his feet were so badly frozen that amputa tion was necessary. The unfortunate man is getting along well. Judge Piper, at Moscow, sentenced three men to the penitentiary last week. They pleaded guilty to burglar izing a store in Genesee. Sinclair and Brownljr got 7 years each, Brodie, 5. The Boise Democrat says: "The Boise Sentinel now has a basis for the organization of silver party club. Dash in, Cap. The Democrat will night herd for your paper while you tour the state. After two months of wedded bliss a Hailey bride, Mrs. Qunlivan, skipped for parts unknown, leaving a good man and liberal provider to announce through the press that he would no longer be responsible for her conduct. The people of Washington county are jubilating over the condition of the county finances. The Citizen says all 1895 warrants and some of 1896, will be paid. The county commissioners are highly complimented, as they certainly deserve. The hot blood still surges in the pion eer vein. At Moscow the Pioneer So cial Club gave a dance which was en livened by a regular old snorter of a barroom scrap, with broken glasses and all the old time frills. Ye pioneer is strictly in it. The ladies of Emmett recently tack led a play entitled Chronothanatole thron. A relief expedition was organ ized three days after the first act, but it is feared that it, together with the lady damatists, is hopelessly lost in the jungles of the title word. The Bannock county bonds that were so easily disposed of a few months ago are still pending. The chances are the sale will be declared off and a certified check of $5,000 which was put up by the proposed purchasers will be forfeited to the county. Up at Montpelier they had a game of seven up which terminated in a shooting scrape. Andrew Mcllwain shot Chas. Manassa on the nose, the bullet penetrated and lodged in the throat. Manassa is doing well, Mcll wain, in default of $2,500 bonds, lan guishes. A cold blooded murder was commit ted at Genesee, Idaho, Tuesday, 21st, 10 p. m. Three men who had determined to engage in a life of crime, waylaid Emmett Fox as he emerged from a sa loon and murdered him for his money. The murderers have been apprehended. Fox was a respectable farmer. The Statesman says: Governor Mc Connell has received notice that Idaho's per centage of the money aris ing from the sale of public land in the state for the fiscal year ending June 30th last amounted to $2,340.76. which would be paid at once. The state gets from the general government 5 per cent, of the net proceeds of the sale of land. Says the Fremont County News : "J. Ricks, of Rexburg, and J. M. Haines of Boise, have been appointed additional Idaho members of the executive com mittee of the national immigration congress. Other members in this state, appointed at the recent St. Paul con vention, are A. B. Clark, of Mountain Home, R. W. Purdum, of Nampa, atd Mr. Keator, of Chicago." A correspondent in the Hailey Times says: "The Populist party, which has been so strong in this county is, I think, losing ground rapidly. It will probably, in the near future, conclude to disband and go out of business, as their brother Pops in Indiana have done." The correspondent doesn't seem to be on to his job. They are just whetting their knives for a re "union." There seems to be considerable con teution between the farmers and the managers of the Ridenbaugh irrigation canal. The canal company insist on payment in advance in cash or secured interest bearing notes. The farmers regard the proposition as unjust, and they are right. The canal companies are all amply sccured under the law and should not demand payment be fore delivery of goods. State Superintendent Foresman charges Canyon county with 2,033 chil dren and credits U3 with $356.38 as our portion of school land sales. There are 38,016 school children in the state among whom the total Sum of $6,639.52 was apportioned. Latah county has tho greatest number of children (4,684) a er J. and Custer the least number (392). Canyon county ranks eighth in num ber, but first in quality. Says the Independent : "We signed a petition this morning for the release of Josiah Randall from jail, upon the assumption that he will return to his home and make himself useful to his family. If he fails to do this he will find that he has made a serious mistake in diagnosing the minds of those who have shown a disposition to give him another probation. The lesson he has had should not be soon forgotten." Now, Josiah, mind your uncle. The regular annual meeting of the Malal City School House association was held last week. This is one of the most ancient organizations in the state and great credit is due the people of Malad for maintaining the yitality of the association. It was organized in 1865 for the purpose of discussing the advisability of considering the advisa bility of contemplating the advisability of discussing the feasibility of thinking about building a school house. The last session of this venerable associa tion appointed a committee and trans acted other business. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Litton, of Wallace, was very sick. The doctors pronounced the case incur able. Sunday morning, 19th, it died. It is charged that the father, unbe known to the physicians in attendance, administered morphine and the evi dence before the coroner indicated that he might have done it with intent to destroy the child. It seems that cer tain property would revert to the fath er in case of the child's demise. The people of Wallace are much agitated over the matter and demand a thor ough investigation. From the Ketchum Keystone: "The Pocatello Herald rises to remark that 'W. D. Johnson, the absconding city clerk, was one of the most active sup porters Senator Dubois had in Bannock county, and his loss will be keenly felt by Freddy's gang of brigands.' An other Republican office holder gone where the woodbine twineth and the whangdoodle mourneth. If the ab sconder had been a Populist what a whole lot of fun the g. o. p. press would have had over his escapade." And why not? The Populists and Demo crats are making quite merry over the fact that Johnson was a Republican. NOTICE. During the absence of M. B.
