ROAD TO YANKEE FORK.


In our last issue we published an
article from the Boise City Republican
on the reasons why road should lie
built from Banner to Yankee Fork.
giving the latter place direct commu-
nication with Southern Idaho and the
outside world. The editor of the
above named paper received his infor-
nation from Mr.. James Monroe, who
has taken pains to gather reliable in
formation on the subject, The road
should be constructed for the betefit
Of I.emhi county, and all that portion
of Idaho south of the Saw Tooth range
Of mountains. At present mails
from this city are sixteen days, when
not interrupted, in reaching Bonanza
City, which IS, by the proposed new
route, only about a hundred miles dis
tant. At present the freight and trav-
ell for all parts Of Lemhi county go by
the way of the Utah Northern Rail-
road, Il ence on direct line to the Oh
jective points. If We had a good
wagon road from Banner to Bonan-
"a City we would also have direct
communication. The route is an ex-
traordinarily good one, with no heavy
grading, with the exception of three
or four miles in getting from Banner
to the river. A large share, if not all,
Of the freight would go by this route,
and we would secure all the travel.
The business men of Boise can readi-
ly see that they would be remunerated
largely for their trouble and outlay in
helping the enterprise. The Basin
will do its share towards putting the
road through this year, if Boise and
Bonanza cities will lend their aid in a
Substantial way. The business men
should meet in every town and Com
mence agitating the enterprise. TIC
insure the building Of the road the
coming summer, movements for secur.
ing the means should be commenced
immediately. If the Boise City PEG
lple will start things systematically
Idaho City will follow, and in few
months we will all begin to realize the
benefits that will ever after accrue
from the enterprise

One question has been uppermostI
in the minds If many since the Grand
jury adjourned, and it is passed over
in silence by your correspondents:
Why did not the Grand Jury indict
the aiders and abettors of Tompkins?1
Why did they not give TO the commu-
nifty the names of the criminals and
the measure Of their guilt instead Of
attacking the Commissioners and 9TH
ers for alleged omissions and over
sights by which no law was violated,
aud neither county nor individual snf
fered? Buster and bravado, mingled
with harmless satire and questions
wide Of the mark, will not do for an
Eexplanation or answer. We want the
bottom facts-the full history Of this
transaction. Until further explana-
tions are given the idea entertained
by many, that the Grand Jury. whep
they threw their net caught the wrong
kind Of fish, looks as if it might have
some foundation.
Now, Mr.. Editor, will close this
controversy, and close it forever, as

elective franchise, by refusing 10 vote

marshals and supervisors for political SER
vices at the polls. Hayes by his veto de-
cisred IN favor Of fraudulent manipulation
of ballot boxes, aud pledged his party as IN
favor of sacrificing the courts and the

party interests. The democratic stand is
a patriotic one and will be endorsed by the
people The republican position admits
no explanation-it commits Hayes sui

have nothing to fear from the decision
