AcQU1TTED.-A girlsh looking boy, named VIM.
L. Pates, apparently about Is years old, was put
on trial in the county court Monday, for killing
Geo Sheets, another boy in this county last April
The boys had quarrel about quarter of a dol
lar due the dead boy and evidently, from the
statements in the court, would have had no
fight at all if left to themselves. But young
Sheets with some friends followed Pates and
Sheets attacked him. The prisoner who was
willing to run yif he had the chance, drew
knife and cut his antagonist SO quickly that the
bystanders hardly witnessed the act of stabbing.
He was getting whipping, but not in any
danger of his life, and if neither boy had been
armed both would have been alive next morn
ing. The act was done without any premedita-
ton of murder and the boy was acquitted, but
it should teach all parents to instil into their
childrens minds that knives are not intended to
fight with, and that it is not "self defence" to
stab an unarmed boy, even though the stabber
may be getting the worst of the scufde.

THE RIGHT WAY.-The Oregon and Cali
fornia papers are disputing about whether the
seat of the Modoc war is in California or Ore
gon: upon the ground that immigrants will be
deferred from going to the State in which it is
decided to be. The right way for immigrants
Themselves to decide the thing is to come to
Idaho. There is no Indian war here, and
should one break out our mountaineers would
make short work OF it. They never get pay
for making pretenss Of fighting Indians, and
hence are never interested in prolonging Indian
troubles, as those are who reap extravagant
pecuniary profits from such humbuggery. And
the inducements which Idaho offers to settlers
are not inferior to those of either California
or Oregon.

EXHIBITION OF THE PEACE POLICY.-Sec
rotary Delano, not satisfied with the Modoc
massacres. has requested Governor Davis. OF
Texas, to pardon the Kiowa chiefs Satanic and
Big Tree, who are serving terms in the peni-
Tertiary of that State. Delano says in his let
ter to Governor Davis that if they are not re-
leased there will be danger of an outbreak OF
the Comanches and Kiowas. Instead Of being
in the State Prison, the two chiefs should have
been hanged, as they have instigated. aud as
sisted in more massacres Of Texans than any
other two Indians in that section for twenty
years past. Pardoning such murderers to pre-
vent an outbreak by their tribes ia rather hu-
initiating exhibition. IT the scoundrels were
white men they would have been hanged long
ago; but, being Indians. under the peace poll
cy, the murderers 60 scot free. 1t is to be
hoped that Governor Davis will pay no atten.

1DAHo's EXHIBIT.

According to the last census Idaho occupies
tina nroud position ofsbeing the healtbiest Por-
ton OF the United States. With total poPu-
lation of 1889 in the year 1870. only fifty
deaths are recorded as having occurred during
that year, making the percentage Of deaths to
the population O.33. Oregon stands next to lda'
h. the ratio of deaths in that State being gwen
at O.6e. Wyoming Territory, with population
Of only 9,lls, over $500 less than Idaho, has
"A deaths recorded during the year. being a
percentape of O.sl; while Montana. with pop
ulation of %, 595, is credited with lso DEATHS
percentage Of O90 The salubrity OF our Gil
mate is q theme upon which we have often
dwet; and the gratifying exhibit. as shown by
the census report of 1870. but substanuates
the claims we have advanced of Idaho being
the healthiest spot on the continent. Inc
peaceable and law abiding disposition OF our
people stands also in about the same ratio, only
two cases of homicide being recorded against
Idaho; while Wyoming, with much less pop
ulation, stands charged with Is cases; Mon
tana with 81; and in Dakotah, with Popula-
ton of l4,lsl, out of 1Ol deaths that occurred
in that Territory during the same year Tour
of them are put down as cases Of homicide.
If the salubrity Of climate, law abiding char
acter of the people, and internal resources
both agricultural and mineral. Of any section
NAV be considered AZ strong inducements to
attract immigration, Idaho stands at the head
od the list of the States aud Territories. In
no other section can capital be more probably
invested with certainty Of realizing quick re-
turns; and we know of no other section where
in the laborer receives fairer remuneration
for his toll. But one thing is required t" give
a new impetus to every branch OF industry ID
Idaho. to develop our vast resources, and In
fuse new life into our dormant energies, and
that is the early construction Of branch rail
road connecting with the Overland line We
believe that Idaho has seen her worst days,
and we are convinced that capitalists. in seek.
iag new fields for Investment. WILL in the course
of a few years, unhesitaiingly invest their
means in the construction OF a railroad down
Snake River Valley. The people have doubt
less become somewhat skeptical on that point
but we must possess ourselves in patience
Capital is constantly seeking new fields for in.
vestment and the advantages offered by our
Territory must, sooner or later, bring Idaho
prominently into notice.
