During the last few weeks England
and Scotland have at last made a some
what tardy but unmistàkably National
expression of their indignation at the
reign of massacre established en per
manence on the Bosphorus. It i3 well
that this should be so. A nation that
did not feel moved to say "Damn" and
say it out full-mouthed in the hearing
of God and man, on seeing the slaugh
tering that has gone on and is goine on
in the dominions of the Grand Turk,
would be a nation without even a sem
blance of a moral sense. But in the
midst of our indignatiou there has
been very inadequate recognition ol
the fact that the guilt really lies at
our own door. If the assassin reigns—

fraudulent convention which binds us

and repudiated by the moral sense oi

ceny as that which made England ap
pear as the piratical Pecksniff of Eu
rope.—From "The Eastern Ogre; or, St
George to the Rescue," by W. T. Stead
in November Review of Reviews.
THE PRICE OF WHEAT.
A London dispatch to the Daily Tel
egraph says of the demand for and the
supply of wheat: "The stock of for
eign wheat at the principal British
ports, it is said, would not suffice to
feed the country for a fortnight. Tue
slight fall in American exchanges on
Saturday gave the English markets a
downward tendency, but it is the opin
ion of one of the best known corn fac
tors in Mark Lane that American
wheat will speedily rise with a bang
and that by Christmas prices will be
much further advanced. During the
recent excitement business was in
comparatively few hands. The opera
tors are reported to have reaped a rich
harvest. Speculation both iu England
and America was carried bejond reas
onable bounds."

Skins, hides and
This is a great moral issue as well as
i monetary issue. It is a duty we owe
posterity to meet it like br^ve men.
Of course, as a matter of fact, we have
not many ekunk skins, and very few
bear hides, and not half enough dog
pelts; but, fellow citizens, when they
are remonetized, those who have them
.vill put them in circulation, and we
nre bound to get our share of them
jomehow or other in the long run.
Give us an abundance of this good

they were in the older and better days
of the republic, before the cut-worm of
the treasury had sapped the tree of our
liberties. Fellow citizens, let's go the

LAND CASE REVERSED.
A special from Washington, D. C., of
the 31st says: In the land case of R.
E. Lockwood against Mary C. Eaton,
from the Boise district, Idaho, Secre
tary Francis today reversed the decis
ion of the Commissioner of the gen
eral Land office. He holds the defend
ant's homestead for the tract in contro
versy for cancellation, on the ground
that the evidence shows abandonment
and failure to cultivate.
In the case of Louis Bonacher against
Stephen S. Fenn and Thomas Ballen,
from the Lewiston district, Idaho, the
latter's motion for a review of the de
partmental decision awarding the land
to Bonacher was denied.
Idaho postoffices discontinued; Cen
tral, Owyhee county, mail will go to
Walters. Davies, Elmore county, mail
»vill go to Atlanta.
SEPARATION AT HAND.
Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern
to be Divorced From the Ü. p.
A dispatch from Omaha says: "The
American Loan and Trust Company
lins filed its application for permission
to foreclose and sell the Oregon Short
Line and Utah Northern railroad
This is virtually the first step taken
looking to the sale of the Short Line
and its divorce from the Union Pacific
system. The reorganization committee
of the Oregon Short Line was formed
several months ago, and it is generally
conceded it has made such progress
that after the granting of the petition
of the trust company, the road will be
foreclosed at once and bid in by bond
holders and then reorganization plans
will be put in operation. It is asserted
the date for it.3 leaving the Union Pa
cific is set for Ja nuary 1.
SULTAN NOT CALIPH.
The Islamic world is divided into
two great divisions—the Sutini Moham
medaus who occupy the Turkish Em
pire, Morocco, Bulgeria, Tunisia, Trip
oli, Afghanistan, Egypt and the Soudau
and the Khanates of Central Asia, and
theShia Mohammedans, who occupy
Persia, and are scattered all over the
Mohammedan world, some 5,000,000 ol
them being in India, says the London
Times. By the doctrine of the latter
the Caliph must be a lineal descendant
of tjie Prophet. The Sunsis, on the
other hand, do not insist on this; but
it is au article of necessary faith in
Sunni theology and law that the Caliph
must be an Arab of pure blood belong
ing to Mohammed's tribe, barring
one or two insignificant sects out of
the liundreds'of sects into which Mo
hammedanism is divided.
One proof test is the Friday prayer.
In no country out of Turkey is prayer
offered up for the Sultan of Turkey.
To do so would be an act Of sedition,
and treated as such. I would not giy<
mich for the life of the Mollah who
iared to offer up prayers for the Sultan
in any mosque in Afghanistan or Per
sia. The Arabe repudiate with scorn
the idea of the Sultan being Caliph;
nor, indeed, has he ever dared formally
to appeal to the Mohammedan world
in that character. He was never ac
knowledged as Caliph in India, and if
he publicly claimed the title formally
even in Constantinople, it is probable
that he would find himself deposed by
a fetva of the Sheikh-ul-Isl&m.
DEATH IN A WELL.
John Kellelt of Pocatello Breaks Ills
Nick by a Fall,
A special from Pocatello, dated No
vember 1, says: This morning about
3 o'clock John Keliett, George Griffiths,
and Louis Worth started for their dif
ferent homes on the East Side. A
heavy wind was raging and it was with
difficulty that any one could proceed in
the storm. Today about 2 o'clock Mrs.
Turner found the cold form of Mr. Kel
iett lying in an old, unused well, which
was about twelve feet deep, near Suth
erland's livery stable. His neck was
broken. Mr. Keliett has been a resi
dent here for years and was a partner
in the firm of Keliett & Cleveland. He
was formerly a locomotive engineer on
this division, and a member of Port
neuf lodge No. 18, A. F. & A. M., and
will be buried by the Masons.
First Transient Person—They say
there ha3 been a great falling off in the
price of the necessaries of life.
Second Ditto—Come off! A fellow
has to cough up 10 cents for a drink
just the same as ever, and the glasses
ain't a bit bigger than they always was.
