DEATH or GEO. d. PRENTICE. On
the morning of January 22d, 1870,
at Louisville, Kentucky, Geo. ID.
Prentice died. He was born at Pres
colt, Connecticut, on the 18th day
December, 1902, consequently his
age at the time Of his death was
sixty-seven years one month and
four days. As paragraph writer
he bad no equal in America for many
years, and while the Wing party
lived WAS one Of its most devoted
adherenis. His editorial connection
with the Louisville journal has ex
tended through Il period Of over 3S
years, commencing in 1881. A ma
jority of his political writing having
been penned to meet special cases
in the midst Of campaign excite
ments, while they were sharp, pun
gent and did good service at the
time, have passed out of memory
with the measures they were intend
ell to build up or pull down. OF
his prose writings. the Thunder
Storm and "A Tale of broken
Heart " will live as gems in literary
composition when their author, as a
politician, will be remembered no
more. As a poet be was far above me-
diocrity, and in his peculiar style,
which approached nearer TO that oil
Campbell, Cowpcr or Pope. perhaps,
tan amy other American, he had no
equal. His Flight Of Years,
Lines written at my mothers grave,
and "Closing Year" will find q
place in poetical collections aud pop
ular school books as long and where
ever the English language is spoken.
/ Ills first effort as an editor was or
the New England Review, at Hart
ford, Connecticut. in 1889, prior
10 his removal TO the west.
His editorial career has been some.
what eventual, often turbulent and
bitter, and OF later years unprofita
bic and unimportant, yet the coun
try realizes and must acknowledge
that a gr. at man has died.

VINO knows who first explored
this portion Of Nevada. and when
md who gave names TO these OBJ
iecls of nature, or changed the ST.
Mary's into the Humbolt ?-Ellco In
dependent.
We do not copy the above with
the purpose of attempting TO answer
categoricslly. though ne have an
impression that the Piutes were
there first; at any rate they we're
there when we came.
Baron Won Humboldt was the first
white man who has left any record
Of his explorations in that region,
and John Charles Fremont is the
man who changed the name OF the
river from St. Mary's to Humboldt,
in report to Congress, remarking
that be did so in compliment to that
Nestor Of scientific travellers, Baron
Won Humboldt. As to who gave
names to other objects Of nature
doubtless old Winnemncca could
throw some light on the subject
if not call on Tom Rule, Dave Me
larkey, Pat Harris, or any Of The
old Piutes around Unionville. Dur

than in the valleys during The sum-
mer months. Those acquainted with
the character OF the country that
surrounds us need not be told that
after the middle of June there is
very lilttle moisture either in the air
or in the ground consequently the
heat OF summer is attributable not
to evaporation but the reflection of
the SUMS rays after they strike the
earth and as these rays emit no
heat in transit, or until they strike
the earth, it follows that the atmos-
phere Immediately surrounding the
earth's surface is more directly ex-
posed TO the reflection, and as they
rise after becoming thus heated they
escape from the suns influence and
become cool as they take their place
in tie upper sirslum, which floats
in and fans the jewellers upon the
mountain top.

REMoSsTRAScE. The following is
copy of the r-monstrance now re-
ceiviDg signatures in Ada county
against the passage OF Stewards bill
to divide the Territories Of Idaho
and Utah for the benefit of Nevada:
TO the Senate and House Of Repre-
sentatiUes Of the United States Of
america
The undersigned, citizens Of Idaho
Territory, would respectfully, but
most earnestly demonstrate against
The passage of bill introduced in
the Senate, entitled, "a Bill TO
change the boundaries of the State
Of Nevads," and submit the follow
ing as some oil the reasons for the
renonstrance
We have had Territorial exist
ence for nearly seven years. Our
country has been settled under many
difficulties not least among which
has been the presence of hostile
tribes of savages within orr borders;
b Il under all our difficulties we have
succeeded in maintaining Terrific
rial Government of moderate re-
spectability. We have at the same
time incurred Territorial Debt OF
one hundred and eleven thousand
d liars, the most of which has been
funded and Is now drawing interest.
This debt was contracted in good
faith, with resources sufficient to liq-
uidate the same in Il reasonable time,
and carry on Territor al Govern
ment. We are enjoying unlnter-
rupted peace throughout our entire
domain new mines are being dis
COZ cred agricultural pursuits are
promising well everything seems
to invite immigration and capital.
Idaho now pays the largest amount
OF internal Revenue into the Nation
al Treasury of any of the Terrific
ries, and her present boundaries and
resources promise at no distant day
population and wealth sufficient to
maintain State organization. The
cutting or of that portion OF our
domain designated in the Bill re-
ferred to will weaken our resources
so much that reputation OF our
Territorial Debt would be inevita-
BILE, and the responsibility of assum-
ing the same would devolve upon
the General Government. or the dis,
grace of reputation be justly
c larged to it.
In view OF these facts we earnestly
pray that the bill may not pass.

Climatic Influences.

Fremont as early as 1914 discoy-
cred that the great mountain ranges
passing north and south and nearly
parallel with tho Pacific Coast, from
Puget Sound 10 the Gulf Of Califor-
nis, exerted a marvellous Influence
over the climate, and moreover had
much to do in determining the con-
sistsncy and humidity Of the atmos-
phere in different localities. For
instance, in bis journal and report
10 Congress be accounted for the
mild and gentle atmosphere Of Cal
ifornis. as compared with that Of the
desert east of the Sierras, which IL
dry and harsh, upon the theory that
the more humid and fertilizing air
from the Pacific ocean, which. in the
process Of evaporation, became sep
nrateted from the lighter and dryer
element, and as the former hung
nearer the earth and met with re-
sistence when coming in contact with
the mountain chain, causing 1t TO re.
coil and flow back in counter cur
rents toward the ocean and descend
in gentle showers over the land the
former lioated higher aud passed
over the summit TO the plains of the
Great Basin.
But Garllelde, in his lecture at
Lincoln Hall in Washington, reveals
still another and quite as important
phenomenon connected with noun
tain agency in controlling the eli
mate of the Northwest Coast. One
too that applies more directly 70 our
own locality, and assists us in solv-
ing the mystery Of the climatic differ
ences in our mountain gorgei and
lowland valleys in winter. Contrary
TO hitherto received opinion, the eli
mate OF the Owyhce mines is found
TO be much warmer in winter and
cooler in summer than the valleys
that surround ns.
We shall take the theory advanced
by Garleldc and attempt to show
by our own experience that it i
reasonable and true. The mount
aims or rather mountain lin which
these mines are situated stands isO-
lated from all other great elevations
and is surrounded by o series oi
lowlands. The prevailing winds in
the open country of this latitude in
winter are in the nature Of things
cold and bleak, and by evaporation
only, IN the absence OF the suns
rays, is sufficient heat evolved "a
rarity the air 10 any extent, ami not
sufficient to be observable near th,
surface Of the ground. The rafilied
air Of course rises and floats in ar
