The Montpelier Examiner has issued a special mid-winter edition in phamplet form, making a book of 32 pages. It is a work of art and is full of valuable information. —Preston Herald. The Montpelier Examiner of January 9th is a special edition and in the advertising and make-up shows off to good advantage the enterprise of its editor and the ap preciation in which it is held by the business men of Montpelier.— Pocatello Advance. Ex-Governor McConnell's county attorney appointments have landed just where everybody thought they would—in the soup. On Monday the supreme court decided that the district attorneys of the state will continue in office until the expira tion of their terms for which they were elected.—Caldwell Record.

The Mid-Winter Spefcial Edition of the Montpelier Examiner is a very creditable pamphlet filled up with information of the town of Montpelier, the county of Bear Lake, and the state of Idaho.

À Moscow girl wagered a thou sand kisses with her "best fellow" that Bryan would be elected. A week or ten days ago' she began paying the debt, and had got to something over eight hundred paid.

They stole a revolver and some other property. The charge lodged against them is burglary.— Statesman. A dispatch from Washington says: Inspector Wright of the In dian bureau has been detailed to investigate the charges against Agent Teter of the Fort Hall reser vation. It is expected he will leave Washington within a week or two for Idaho. The Indian^ have started on their return and will arrive but a few days before Inspector Wright. Commissoneif Browning states that Mr. Wright was raised among the Siouk In dians, and while unknown to either the Fort Hall Indians or their agent, Teter, is familiar with Indian matters generally and ca* pable of conducting a fair and im partial investigation into the charges made agaihst Mr. Teter. Owing to the rules of the HousS of Representatives it is impossible to know just what is going on id Idaho. Up to this time not a single House bill has beert print ed. The rules require all hills to go before their respective commit tees before they are printed, and sometimes the committees actually make a favorable or an adverse re port on a bill before any one out side of the committee knows what the bill contains. In the Senate however, that body has clearcut and well-defined rules, and people! interested in legislation know just where to find the various measures' in which they are interested.' There is much complaint here against the star-chamber methods' of the House, which are in striking contrast to the open methods of the Senate.—Salt Lake Tribünè.' Estray Law. Within ten days 61 taking up' estrays, where the owner is un known, publish a notice in you? county paper. As soon as the notice appears in the paper, cut it out and send it to the county auditor.

If the owner does not appear, the holdëf of the estray must ask the sheriff or any constable to' sell the at public auction. The holder of the estray can bid at the sale if he so desires. The charges for keep ing the stock, printer's fee, etc.;, mdst come out of the proceeds of the sale.. Anÿ other way of pro ceeding with estrays is illegal; You cannot charge for the keeping of an estray for more than five days prior to the filing of thé? notice with the county auditor. Don't Monkey with a Buzz Saw Editor Examines:*- —The Post of last week, Jan. 15th, published àd article as follows: Our Demo-Pop legislature cre ated quite a surprise last week when they awarded the contract for legislative printing to Captain Gunn of the Sentinel at $1.50 per, page when the Statesman Com pany offered to do it for $1.20 per, page, llow is this for economy? Rather a bad break isn't it? The legislative pripting has not been let to anyone. The printing bills wds let to the Sentinel; they having agreed to do* it during the night and have them ready for business the next morning at $1.50' per page. The Statesman did the same work two years ago for $2 page. They oflered to do it this session-for $1.20 per page, but de manded day tinA to' do it in, which might some days delay business.' this was the case a whole day would be lo'st. This would mean 100 men at $5 a day apiece or $500 lost to' the state: I can see money made for thé state id this kind of economy. The demo-pops are looking over' republican îecords as left in 1 state house and elsewhere and how ready to furnish the people of Idaho with some vèry interesting reading on economy, and I would advise the Post to not monkey with the demo-pop legislature of Idaho, as it might a buzz in full C.
