Idaho friend, Mr.. Angle and sons. II
asked us to get off our horses and ca
q water melon with him. You ough'
to have seen my friend Dobbs jump Of
his mustang, as water melon was MI
strong fort; and Of course ! had t.
follow suit. Mr.. Angle and Mr.. Mann't
son cut open four or FIVE melons, and
the way my pard walked outside Of
them melons was astonishing to me
and think to your old friend Angle.
After filing up with melons, we bid
good bye to Mr.. Angle and took the
old Jackass trail over the mountain
for home. We arrived home at four
o'clock in the afternoon after a stay
in the mountains OF eleven days. We
left Messrs. Thompson, Jones and Fer
ris in company with Mr.. Sine Fry and
party in Tripod. They have made up
their minds to prospect that country
thoroughly before they return. They
are old miners and l expect to hear a
good account from them before long.
Friend Bert, have in my time trav-
elcd nearly all over the United States,
but in all my wanderings | have new
er seen a better country for a poor
man to make home in than the valleys
of Idaho Territory. Time, that power
which works such wonders, will at no
distant day show homes as lovely and
attractive in Idaho Territory as those
found in the older states; and the
orchards, vineyards and fields of wa
veing grain will invite the traveller
and miner to pause and note the real
wealth and matchless beauties Of our
Territory. There is room and good
land enough among these mountains to
provide homes for thousands Of the
toiling sons and daughters of the OIL
der states. Tell them 10 come. The
land is here, and all they have to do
is to take up home and improve it,
and in the course of time it will pay.

there for several years. He is also
the only white man living between the
points named. Every season be has
been robbed two or three times since
hc has been there with the exception
Of this. and thus far this season he
has escaped. When he goes to town
for supplies he slips out after night,
leaving candle burning, 50 as to
make the thieves believe he is at home.
We suggest % Mr.. Popp the propricty
of getting married, or taking in some
other kind of partner. The thieves
are very likely now watching for an.
