Owyhee semi-weekly tidal wave. [volume] (Silver City, Owyhee County, Idaho Territory) 1868-1869, 1869-08-31

THE trial of Robert Dedman for
the murder of Albert Springer was
to commence yesterday before Judge
Rising at Virginia city. The Enter
prise Of the 25th says it is very
doubtful if jury of twelve men
can be found in Storey county that
have not made up their minds about
the case. 1t appears that the only
nrovocation he had for beating him
over the head with pistol was that
Dedman was about to beat woman
over the head and was prevented by
Springer from doing so.

years this State will be a network
OF iron roads like those of the Miss
issippi valley. Then think what
prices good grain, vineyard, stock,
timber, or indeed all sorts of lands
will command. Swamp and tule
lands are being purchased and re-
claimed in view Of the certain rise.
A farmer can't make a mistake In
buying lands now with clear titles.
The large land owners will sell on
long credits at low rates of interest,
and small ranches partly improved
are in market at very low figures in
all parts of the interior. The mass
of the small land owners don't real
ize how soon the railroad system
will revolutionize land values.
transportation is becoming cheaper
each year, and competition is sure
to make greater reductions. Short
lines of railway will soon penetrate
all the valleys into the foothills.
Over 200 miles of railroad will be
built in this State in 1870-and near
ly that amount will be this year.
Politics is mixed. A ring Of
thieving Republicans have Joined
more powerful thieving Democratic
ring, and they hope to win the cleo
ton one week from tomorrow. The
Examiner is the only paper in the
city in the interest of the public
plunderers, but there are many men
and much money at work. j. W.

Tna Boise and Idaho papers are

Loon creek, all going to establish
the permanency and richness of that

With his family, was preparing to

in a complete change of plans for
the future. He sent for his wife to

sidered he had found another Boise

arrival commenced the erection of

Good Templar Lodge. Vantine &

in fact all branches of business are

Knapp has one already in operation.
The people of Boise city are casting
about for a better and nearer road
to the new digging by going up
Boise river, thereby securing the
trade of the new mines for that
place. The contagion has reached
This place to some extent and we
hear of several who are only waiting
for more definite information from
friends who have gone before.

endeayoring to prepare the public
of the coast to support them for
Presidential honors in 1872. The
press has failed to inform the public
that both are liable to overdo the
joke, yet that sentiment prevails
among candid men of both parties.
I've carefully listened to both, and
they said much that was very silly,
which was intended to be witty and
winning. Their reputation for able
craftsmanship has suffered here
among sensible people. I'm inclined
to think it has always been exagge-
rated. Neither of them compare fa
vorably with Henry Edgerton, of
this State. was greatly prepos-
sessed in favor Of both, which may
have increased my disappointment.

Governors part, but at last accounts
the lady was pleased with the

am pleased. b. is all things to all
men for position. Under johnson,
as Mining Commissioner, be favored
ex-confederates and consorted with
and preferred them and during the
rebellion he remained in Europe,
and in his writings spoke indiffer-
emily on the mighty rebellion. Some
of his friendly journals now say he's
| in full accord with Grants admins
tration. He's a good man to be de-
prived Of giving shape to public af-
fairs.
The monetary pressure here has
been almost unprecedented in the
history of the State, and yet there
were no noteworthy failures, and
never so little property sold at auc-
ton. The bankers have made de-
posits of gold in New York by which
they draw three millions out Of the
U. S. Treasury here, and London
capitalists have authorized Milton
S. Latham to draw on them for two
and a half millions making five
millions in all as relief. 1t will
principally be used in paying foT
wheat, and will be some months in
getting round so as to make money
generally easy. A correspondent
of the Idaho Statesman says money
was locked up in land-hence the
stringency. All mistake money
can't be locked up. 1t has been
locked in the city, State and U. D.
Treasures, and some in private
safes. Buying lands distributes
money; buying foreign goods locks
| it up in the U. S. vaults or sends II
| abroad.
Speaking of lands reminds me
that now is the time to buy lands IN
this State-they viii never be cheap
er. Each coming year for several
to come will add hundreds of miles
of railroad to the State. Companies
are looking out good present and
prospective routes, and are either
building roads over them or intend
to do so as fast as possible. In nVe

muscle have once been regained. And even
those who have been frightened away from
your own State by the hectic flush and omin-
Gus cough indicative of incipient pulmonary
consumption, should they be fortunate
enough in coming here to find the evil ar
rested, would be ungrateful wrstches did they
not feel warmly inclined toward State
whose balsamic airs bring healing in their
WINGS
Minnesota is a good State. The hardy
Scandinavian, with his proverbial habits of
industry and frugality, as well as the Teuton-
ic races, with their grubbing, gathering, ac-
cumulative habits, are almost sure to devel-
op thrift, and in very short time rise far
above the position, viewed from the stand
point of comfort aud material success, to
which they could have arisen in the old world.
They do not feel the deprivations which
would be formidable to your "down east"
people, nor do the dirt and filth and total dis
regard of personal appearance, SO common
on the frontier, weigh so heavily in the scale
of these foreigners minds as they would with
those more delicately nurtured and accustom-
ed to the good taste and comfort and elegan-
cie5 of more refined life.
The foreign population to whom have re-
ferred, like the Irish only in this respect, are
emphatically gregarious, and seldom strike
out alone to buffet the rugged duties of a
new country single-handed. They leave their
own countries in colonies, keep together as
colonies and settle as colonies, so as TO pre-
serve to some extent the associations of fa-
therland, and keep up the habits and Gus
ed in the old country. They have their own
physicians, clergymen and newspapers;
churches are erected by their own funds, in
which the rites of religion are performed in
language they can understand, the officiating
priest or clergyman holding forth the tamil
their own vernacular, so that they have, in
comm. to these shores, brought with them
the best part, to them, of Scandinavia and
Germany-all but the rocks, mountains and
familiar landmarks; some loved ones with
whom they keep up regular correspondence,
and the sacred soil which hold the bones Of
their fathers and friends. Such people viii
in good time make rich and prosperous
States.
But after giving to the Gopher State all the
praise to which she is justly entitled, and
that is no small share considering her youth
and history, insist the advantages, five
times in six, are with your State and your
people. OBSERVER.
