feels very sore over the defeat of It's editor
and of the dark lantern, shoddy party. The
thumb paper feels that its chances for the
public printing is gone, though Reynolds
boasts that "the governor will appoint him,
and if the Legislature does not confirm the
appointment, it will have to go without hav-
ing any printing DONE" We shall see if the
people will submit to be dictated to by the
satraps of any Administration. Idaho is I'M
mistakabIy Democratic. The Legislature is
the representative of the people. The Legis-
lature has the power to elect its own officers
and the public printer is as much an officer
of the people as ergeant-at-Arms, or Clerk,
or Doorkeeper. The appointees ofthe Wash
ington Government are here to administer
the laws of the Territory-tO conform to the
Expressed will of its people mot to dictate
to them, or to their representatives in the
Legislature. If they do otherwise-lf they
attempt to dictate to the Legislature, or to the
people--to force Republican organ upon
the public treasury of Democratic people
let their dlctation be met with an indignant
rebuke.
About this man Reynolds desire to say
a few words as think he is not generally
known in Idaho. He is a hatchet-faced
creature whose soul and intellect are as mar
row as his look is mean and contemptible.-
He is thoroughly dispised, and with just
reasons, even byrUnion men" in every COM
munlty wherever be sknOwn. At the Dalles
be is said to have followed the congenial &C.
cupatiOR of a sPY and informer for the Fed
eral Government. He is known at the DalleS
by the sobrlquet OF reynolds the spy and
iuformer." His paternal ancestor is said to
have been the Reynolds, of whom we read in
"Madden's United Irishman" who "betrayed
unto death" the two brothers, John and Hen
ry Shearse, Bond, and Lord Edward Fitzger-
aid. These men were implicated in the Irish
rebellion of 1898. Reynolds wormed himself
into their confidence. He frequented the
house of Bond and the Shearses-d with
them-and even took their innocent children
upon his knees and kissed and caressed
them He afterwards put the rope around
the necks of the fathers of these children L
John Phelpot Garran, describing this Reyn-
olds, says of him: ....ft.
"Ile was man who measured his value
by the collins Of his victims, and, in the |
field of evidence, appreciated his fame as the
Indian warrior does in fight, by the number
of scalps with which he can swell his VIC
tory"
Madden says. this Reynolds came to Amer
lea, and settled in Pennsylvania. The Boise
CITY REYNOLDS betrays all the mark of hay
ing descended from the Irish spy and IN
former. "Blood will tell" And the con
geniality withghich the Reynolds here takes
% the occupation ofspy and informer, as well
Is the natural mate baseness of the man, be-
rays his origin. A man who will greenback .
lis brother, and starve bis wife to death,
Who makes his first raise. out of the "secret
ervice money" of Mr.. LincolnAs Administra- 4
ion, is just fit to be a leader of, and to give
IDEAS to, the shoddy party ofIdaho Territory.
