reasons in support.

voir for irrigation purposes. Its capa
city is 160 acre feet.

letter containing $235 in checks and
money orders.
A man in Montpelier has placed on

been working on for 40 years. It is on
ly half completed. It will be utilized
for heirloom purposes.
The Elmore Commissioners refuse to
pay the assessor because he failed to
swear all the taxpayes to the tax list
The assessor probably wanted to Bave
a few souls, if possible.
Judge Richard«, of this district, hav
ing been resigned half a dozen times by
some of the local press, is at last well
resigned to remain on tu* bench his
time out.—Boise Democrat.
The Bannock County Commissioners
have finally received assurance that the
County bonds will be taken immediati
ly and the cash paid over. How is it
about Canyon county bonds?
A demurrer has been filed to the com
plaint in the suit against the bondsmen

W. E. Borah and Brown & Cahalan.—

Two men of Salmon had a fight be
cause one objected to let the school
teacher cross a stream on a particular
log. A frleui «? the teacher's interfer
ed and fur flew. The jury returned a
verdict of not guilty.
Suspicion points to S. W. Moody, one
of the witnesses in the breach of prom
ise case at the Columbia last week, as
the party who swiped goods from the
store room of the relief society the
other night.—Boise Democrat.
The recent town election at Idaho
Falls demonstrated that more than one
third of the citizens were opposed to
bonding for 930,000 to erect public
water works. The battle may be fought
over again during the coming summer.
Says the Boise Democrat: "Dr.
Leonard in nineteen pages of closely
written letter paper has explained away
the biblical account of the Xoachin
flood. He tackled it allegorloally', and
metaphorically speaking knocked hell'i
bells out of it."
Albert Wilson Esq. left a fine sample
of quinces at this ofllce the other day
for which he has our thanks. If there
is any variety of fruit in the production
of whtch Idaho does not excel, we have
not as yet heard of it.— Inde*. What
about ben fruit? , ■
In Washington County a lively news
paper light is progressing between
correspondents with dirvegent views as
to the blessedness of toll roads. Clay is
for tolls, Smith against, therefore, other
things being equal. Smith has the best
of it, because, generally speaking, toll
roads are an Unmitigated curse.
Paris, Idaho, is to have a $10,000
Stake Acadamy building. A Stake
Acadamy Is, an educational instution
conducted by the Morman church and
supported by the church and its mem
bers. There is a notable institution of
the kind in Preston, Oneida county.
The building is said to have cost 940,000.
The prospect for a large amount of
building in Idaho Falls during the
present year is very bright. Almost
every day we hear of some one contem
plating building a residence. The day
of cheap shacks seems to have passed,
good substantial residences, costing
from 91200 to 92500 seems to be the
order now.—Idaho Falls Register.
President Coffin of the boad of re
gents, Vice Presldet Kaufmann and
Secretary Green were at the assembly
Wednesday morning. Mr. Coffin made
short speech urging upon the students
the fact that obedience to constituted
authority was a corner stone to success.
Messrs. Kaufmann and Green made
short addresses.—North Idaho Star.
George Berridge, who lives three
miles down the yalley, has the cham
pion cow; she has given birth to four
calves in 10 months. The first pair
were bulls and the second are heifers,
and all proved to be lively specimens.
One of the bulls is dead, but It got into
the alfalfa field and foundered itself—it
was not the fault of the cow.— States
man.
They have a model justice of the
peace over at Star, Idaho. A man
named Stofle had a grudge against a
neighbor and had him arrested on a
flimsy charge. The justice after trying
the case, dismissed the charge and tax
ed the cost on the complaining wit
ness, Stofle, instead of the county.
That justice is all right.—Challis Mes
senger.
A reliable gentleman informed the
Index the other day that Hon. B. A.
Cowden expects to return to Emmett in
the spring and will at once proceed to
put the Central Lumber Co's. saw mills
in tip top shape. This may mean some
thing encouraging with regard to the
railroad, but if itonly means a common
old fashioned lumber business it is pret
ty good news.— Index.
Says the Democrat: "It is said
that Capt. Plummer, manager of the
DeLamar mine in Owyhee county,
gets a salary of 925,000 a year. That's
one half what president Cleveland
i. not nearly so much as a star
variety actor receives, and an infernal
sight more than an editor has to scrape
along with." Yet he is worth more to
the world than the whole combination..
W. S (Jhaney, representative of the
Marysville Canal & Improvement com
pany, returned from the east Tuesday,
and will spend the major part of his
time here for the next few weeks. Mr.
Chaney expects to see a large immi
gration into this country next summer,
and he predicts that It will not be long
until we hear the rumble of railroad
trains running in and out of St.
Anthony.—Fremont County News.
The word "fusion" is distasteful to
the Boise Sentinel, but the editor is
making himself ridiculous trying to
satisfy his own qualms of conscience
and convince his party that a "union"
of the populists and democrats is all
right. The Moscw Star, realizing that
the prime object cannot be concealed
by platitudes, is more candid aud goes
right to the point by proposing fusion
with a pre-arranged division of the
spoils.—Genesse News.
Assistant General Superintendent
Dickinson has been notified that his re
signation will be accepted. He and
Receiver Burleigh passed through here
yesterday eyeing on No. L, and. were
accompanied this far by Division
Superintendent Pierson, of the Rocky
mountain division. On reaching this
place they were met by Division Su
perintendent Gilbert of thé Idaho div
ision, who accompanied the officials as
far as Spokane.—Hope Examiner.
A suit was filed in the district court
yesterday which will prove a test case
on the question of water rights in this
state, and which grows out of. the dif
erances between ; farmers under the
Ridenbaugh canal and the management
of the system. The court is asked to
decide whether a water company has
the right to charge for water rights in
advance In order that the consumers
may secure the privilege of baying
water at a fixed price per acre a year.—
Statesman.
Says the Payette Independent: Cald
well secured the next meeting of the
Horticultural Association, at which
time we presume there will be a fruit
exhibit. Payette will try and send up
as large a Republican delegation as
Caldwell sent to Payette last y ear. We
will also endeavor to see that each fel
low goes up there "full of prunes."
Laying all jokes aside, we will help
Caldwell make an exhibit that will be
a credit to Canyon county. There is
nothing small about Payette but her
gall, and that's growing." Better prune
it.
A big damage suit was tiled in the
district clerk's office Wednesday, where
in John McMillan is plaintiff and ex
Probate Judge Douglas Hix and his
bondsman are defendents. The com
plaint alleges that by reason of a faulty
acknowlegment made by defendant,
the plaintiff failed to secure a lien on a
homestead and thus lost 94600. The suit
is brought to recover $3500 as damages
Attorneys Glenn and Reeves and Ter
rill appear for plaintiff. The suit prom
ises to be a big one and it will be fought
bitterly by both sides.—Montpelier
Ezaminer.
The United State senate has now
eighty-nine members; forty-five is a
majority. The Republicans have forty
four members, the Democrats thirty
nine and the Populists six. No party
has a majority. If the claimant from
Delaware, Mr. Dupont, should be seat
ed, the Republicans would have forty
five members but not a majority, for
forty-six would then be a majority.
This condition is likely to exist until
the next session when enough Republi
can senators will be elected and admit
ed to give that party a clear majority
over all.—Albion Busy Bee.
The Malad Valley School House asso
ciation seems to have had an unusually
animate meeting last week. Judging
from the wild exclaimations of the
Enterprise the membership appears to
have been intoxicated with glee. The
regular annual program was rendered
by voting, informally, to bond the dis
trict. Now there will be a spirited
campaign, "bends no" will triumph and
the ecstasy will subside. The Malad
Enterprise says the community is
about to "emerge from the thralldom
of must, mildew, mossbackism and
money." Good, but where is Pete ?
The Pocatello Advance a staunch
Populist says: "There is a good deal of
talk going on through a number of
papers of the state about a possible
fusion of the Popuiists and Democrats
this year, and some of the influential
Populist papers have declared against
a fusion, while some, notably the Boise'
Sentinel favors some kind of a union,
but not a fusion. We honestly confess
to an inability to appreciate such a
delicate distinction. You cannot change
the odor of a rose by giving it some
other name, neither can you hide the
intent and purpose of fusion by calling
it something else."
There was a rumor floating around
town yesterday that the Reservation
canal had again been hung up at the
instance of the Indian Rights associa
tion. The latter, if this is true, was of
course prompted by some of the unsuc
cessful bidders. We wonder how long
the people of Pocatello will stand the
kind of dog in the manger work that
has been going on here for a .couple of
years past. Every effort for the open
ing of this reservation has been block
ed by parties right here in Pocatello.
It seems to us that it is about time to
prepare a kittle of tar and a feather
pillow for the men who have so presis
tently been placing obstacles in the
way of every movement looking to
ward the prosperity of the city.—Poca
