may appear impracticable, but ex-
perience in other countries has pro-
ven that it is entirely feasible, and
answers every purpose on a small
scale, for which the iron is so indis-
pensiblc in larger enterprises. The
estimates for railroad building on
this coast, place the item of iron for
the track at half the expense, whereas
wood, when the cars can start from
a forest, can be furnished for trifle
in comparison, and do away with the
additional expense of stringers. 1t is
not likely that any company will
start Immediately to building a
wooden railroad, but this fact they
must recognize The Pacific Rail-
road is not coming by every man's
door, and the sooner the people
adopt some means of reaching it by
branches Of cheaper construction,
than the costly iron rail, the sooner
will they consult their own interests
and operate more within their means.

THE proposition of Senator Boni-
field, of Nevada. to divide Idaho, so
as to set Owyhee County into Neva-
da, comes from Democratic source
and may be intended to add sufi-
.cient Democratic strength to Nevada,
to make it Democratic State. while
it would leave the political status of
Idaho the same, If this be the OBJ
iect of the Senator, and those who
are in the scheme with him, we think
he reckons without bis host, as ma
jority of about one hundred would
have but little impression on ma
iority OF over sixteen hundred on the
other side in the State of Nevada
The principal reason why we should
not want to be attached 10 Nevada,
il, that il would throw us too far
away from the Seat of Government.
There are some reasons why twould
be to our advantage to be thus set
into Nevada. One is that teamsters
bringing freight into our camp,
would not be subject to taxation
twice in the same year. Another is,
that Nevada has a Registry Law that
acts as a check againstillegal voting.
Another is, that we would be en-
titled to all the privileges of citi-
gems of a State. while il is not likely
that Idaho will become State for
many years. as it appears to be the
settled policy of Congress, not to
admit any more States, without the
requisite population to entitle them
to the privilege without special act.
Another is that we would get rid OF
so much Special Legislation, Fund
ing the County Debt, and other ini-
quities that Idaho Legislatures, are
such adopts at, Everything consid-
cred, it may be pretty good thing.

that lemon syrup, essence of lemon, and
all other lemon davors, are extracted,
not from the inside meat of the fruit, but
from its outer rindi Yet such is the
fact, as any druggist can testify. The
rind is grated off close to the skin, aud
the inside, which is generally used and
esteemed, is discarded as utterly worth
less. The acid which constitutes the
peculiar lemon flavor resides in the
rind, which is therefore used exclusive
