The exhibition at the Court House or
Thursday evening was success, very com.
plimentary to the teacher, Mr.. Benedict.
After singing Good Evening, the Introduc.
tory address by Miss Ella Shepherd was de-
liVered in chaste manner, after which seve-
raj pieces were spoken by the smaller schol-
ars and followed with songs. The audience
seemed well pleased with Father Abbyis Will
delivered by twelve small boys.
The Fortune Teller "a dialogue) by Misses

was rendered in excellent style. We predict
a bright future for the little WITCH. The
Honest Boy, by Master Asa Abbott elected
considerable applause. The Union, it must
be Preserved, by Master, Charles Iebur, was
delivered i'll good style. Impeachment of

which was spoken with deep pathos, after
which Master Jacob Breunerappeared on the

convey correct idea of its delivery. We

For the Idaho World
Gold Dust as Circulating Medium.

Necessity compels the adoption OF circulating
medium of gold dust i'll the greater portion of this
Territory. This is especially the case in southern
Idaho. The evils arising from this condition Of
affairs are becoming of so serious a nature as 10
attract no small degree of public attention, and
the subject is one of common and earnest discus
sion and conversation. The Urge quantities Of
spurious and adulterated dust put i'll circulation by
the more criminal and dishonest, has deprecated
the average standard value of Boise gold dust 10
some extent, and there is good reason for, ard
good sound practical common sense in commu-
ncation appearing in the last preceding issue of
the WORLD upon bogus dust and Bogus Operas
TORS = though more appropriate caption. would
be Bogus Dust and Swindhng Operators
But there is another evil connected with the use
Of gold dust as circulating representative Of
money, not alluded To in the communication re-
terred to, equally demanding some legislative or
other remedy. This is the use of false weights
by which in many instances very considerable
extra per centage is made in wei Ching gold du 81
particularlyin Weighing small amounts, not uG>
frequently am )unting in half dozen different
drafts of an ounce to three and a half and four
dollars. As a question Of moral ethics false
weights equally with adulterated gold dust consti
tue neither more or less than swindIing and in
the former case the honest must suffer Tor the mis-
deeds of the dishonest. This is gross Injustice
and II false weights are IAN abomnation to tie
Lord, I" they not the less in this case premium
upon rogueIy at the expense Of the honest and
fair dealing members OF the business community.
Il any legislation is attempted or self>protectYe
policy adopted let it by all means cover the whole
ground. there is no real difference between
swindling III either the ole way or the other in
dealing in gold dust. Let it be taken for what it
is actually and really worth and no more, ard at
its just and actual weight. Even then larger
contracts, made up from the weighing of small
quantities will always be found to overrua more
or less, and very genarally more than less at that
The whole subject is one which should receive the
attentive consideration of The next Legislature.

LEGISLATIVE CAND1DATEs.-From present
appearances the candidates for the various
Legislative Offices at the next session, will
out number accelerated 'tleaves of Vallam-
brosa." In Boise County their name is
legion. They are q boss in Ada county.
Owyhee and Alturas intend to be fully rep
resented; and probably when the time comes
t.'tbe great North" will perceive the necessity
of presenting its proportion of candidates.
Perhaps most of those who anticipate brief
Official residence next winter at Boise City,
are not aware that though the pay of the
officers Econnected with the Legislature is
nominally considerable, really it amounts to
very little. The successful candidates for
Clerkships, Sergeants-at-Arm etc., when the
session is over, will find themselves with but
very little money upon which to declare a.
dividend. To those who are not successful,
IS four ffths Of the applicants must neces-
sarily be, the trip to Boise City will be any,
thing but profitable. The members elect
would probably be willing to elects every can
didate to the Office to which he aspires, if
there were Offices enough to fill. But as it is
impossible, many really deserving and hope
ful men must be disappointed.
We remember once hearing an old member
of the California Legislature say in saera-
mento, that rather than take the chances of a
'candidature for one of these Legislative
offices, and undergo all theyexations, humili--
atoms, labor, and expense incident to such
position in sharply-contested election,
where scores were APPLICANTS fora solitary

Tire himself out to work in the streets at six

keep out of that business, and we think his
Adyise was worth taking.

COLORADO TERRITORY has adopted State
Constitu ton, and will apply for admission
into the Union in December. With the con-
stitution the Question of negro suffrage was
submitted to the people, but was rejected by
alarge majority. A year ago the people re-
jected State constitution, perhaps because a
ticket for State officers was submitted with
It, This was the case with Nevada, which
also rejected a State organization when so
accompanied, but accepted it when submitted
onits single merits. The new constitution
provides for a very cheap State Government.
Salariestor State officers are provided for by
the constitution amounting to $4,000. 1t
is thought it can be supported on $40, 600
per annum-$lo,0 900 in excess of the Terrific
eial expenses.
The taxable property of the Territory is
estimated at eight millions. 1t has no in
dehtedness except an Indian war debt which
will probably be assumed by the Federal
Government. The State officers will not be
elected until after the admission of the new
State into the Union.

VINO is GovERSoR?-A dispatch dated
Washington Sept 18th says:
Gov. Lyon, of Idaho, who has been de-
tanned here TO receive instructions with regard
to certain treaties he had been forced to make
with the Indians of his SUPPLEMENTARY
leaves for his seat of government to-mor-
row."
If true, this will 'stake back" some of the
gentry in this Territory who have taken every
occasion to ridicule and defame Lyon, think
ing he was a s'dead cock in the pit" Those
who profess TO have some knowledge on the
subject, express the opinion that Wallace
was nominated by the President for the posi-
ton of Governor some months ago, but the
Senate did not confirm the nomination.
Meanwhile Lyons friends have rallied to his
support, and when the nomination comes up
at the opening of Congress, an effort will be
made to defeat the nomination, which, if
successful, will leave Lyon smaster of the
situation " During the interval, he retains
the Office, and Will return to Idaho to admin
lister its functions.

SHARP FINANcIERING.-Eye country has
some distinguishing characteristic. Among
thosesof Idaho may safely be classed the
sharp practice of Idaho juries, fast becoming
proyerbial among us. A noticeable instance
of the kind recently occurred in the trial of
case before Justice Galloway at Centefyille.
The jurors returned into court with o verdict,
which was refused to be announced before
payment of jury fees. The jurors were in
formed by the court that they would be paid
at the store of well-known merchant, by
whom the payment had been assumed for one
of the litigants. After brief and hurried
but eager and earnest consultation between
the foreman and other jurors, the announce
ment was made that the jury didn't like to
take the merchant in question unless obliged
to, as all but one of the panel were more or
less n1ebted to him. That fnanciering is
hard to beat anywhere.
