IDAHO NEWS.

From che Idaho Statesman of the 18th, we
take the following
Mr. Dover and another gentleman arrived
in town, from Rocky Bar, Sunday afternoon,
bringing the news that d. G. Updyke and
Jake Dixon were hanging at Syrup Creek.--
Mr.. Dover and his companion eamped at
Syrup Creek about dark on Saturday night,
and had occasion TO go down 10 the house,
short distance, and were surprised at finding
no one living there, but Updyke suspended
in the shed between the two houses. On the
body was pinned the following card:
DAVE UPDYKE,
The alder of Murderers and Horse Thieves.
s. Xxx.
The discovery had the effect to make their
camp lonesome one for that night. Coming
on the next morning they learned that Jake
Dixon was also hanging to tree few miles
down the creek They could not tell how
long the bodies had been there. Justice
Kline st'rted yesterday morning for Syrup
Creek for the purpose of properly disposing
of them. Monday morning the following
card was found posted on Main street, written
in the same handwriting as the one found on
Clark week ago:
DAVE UPDYKE,
Accessory after the fact 10 the Port Neuf
stage robbery.
Accessory and accomplce to the robbery
of the stage near Boise City in 1864.
Chief conspirator in burning property on
the Overland Stage line.
Guilty Of aiding and. assisting West Jen-
kens, the murderer, and other criminals to
escape, while you were Sheriff of Ada county
Accessory and accomplice to the murder Of
Raymond.
Threatening the lives and property of an
already outraged and suffering community.
Justice has Overtaken you. xxx
LAKE DIXON,

All the living accomplices in the above

FROM THE UPPER CoLUMBIA.-From
General James McAuliff, the Walla
Walla Statesman learns the following:
The steamer "49" was all ready to
take her place on the route to the Big
Bend mines, and was expected to start
on her first trip on Saturday last, the
18th. She is pronounced by those
who have examined her, fine boat,
and fully equal to the requirements of
the trade. Capt. Len. White, the
Purser, and the whole crew were on
the ground, and it is quite certain that
the boat started at the time stated
Parties who have been hurrying -four
through to Colville, paying exorbit.
ant freights, are in bad luck, it being
difficult TO realize charges. In the
Colville market, -four is quoted at $l4
per hundred-but when sold in large
quantities $12 is the ruling rate. Tho
road to Colville is in bad condition,
animals frequently miring down, and
the trip attended with many delays.
uoutEdi mC WAS llIOTo lOTIuuaJo Iuuu
many others, and yet he pronounces
it a "hard road to travel" At Col.
vile there are three stores doing q
healthy business, and at the landing
two more mercantile establishments,
both having fair trade. At Little
Dallos, which is to bo the landing
place of the steamer, ii is expected
that little town will spring up. All
through the country the settlers are
hopeful, and calculate upon big things
from the Big Bend mines.
The trial of Thomas Donahue, al
Walla Walla, charged with the mur
der of Ferd. J. Patterson, occupied the
court for four days. The evidence fo'
the prosecution was, we think, oleal
on the charge of murder. The jury
was out from four o'clock p. m. OF
Wednesday until Thursday afternoon
but could not agree. They stood seve,
for acquittal and five for conviction
The case will probably be tried agail
the present term of court.
