BLACkFOOT.
Its Resources, Climate, ETC., Etc,

The town Of Blackfoot is located
about one mile of Snake river, in Onei
da county, Idaho Territory, and with
in two miles from Blackfoot river
from which it takes its name. 1t is
situated in broad valley containing
rich loamy soil for agricultural pur
poses, which can be. easily watered
from Blackfoot river. A large ditch
is now being constructed which, when
completed, will irrigate several thous-
and acres of land. 1t is also the in
tention to bring the water from this
ditch to the town, which will give our
citizens an opportunity Of setting out
trees and seeing them grow rapidly,
thus identifying their homes and add
ing to the appearance Of the town.
being one hundred and seventy-eight
miles from Ogden, it is almost sure to
be the end of passenger division of
the Utah and Northern railroad, and
we have heard it intimated that the
company intended making it the loca-
ton for round house and machine
shop. Surrounded as it is for from
twenty to thirty miles on either side
by rich agricultural and grazing
country, large part of which has
been settled for several years, the per-
manancS of the town cannot be dis
puted. 1t is also on the line of the
old emigrant road to Oregon and
Washington territories with an excel
lent ferryboat to cross Snake river,
which is always in order. There is a
move ON foot however, to build sub
stantial bridge which no doubt will be
accomplished this Fall. There are
four first-class general merchandise
stores, one jewelry store, livery sta
BILE, four saloons, and as good q hotel
as can be found in the western coun-
try, (the Keeney House,) where all
passenger trains stop for meals, one
restaurant, one meat market, two
blacksmith shops, one barber shop, one
lumber yard, number of carpenters
and painters. We have also one first
class physician and surgeon, but nc
lawyer, harness maker or shoe maker
all Of whom would do we'll.
The altitude is about 1900 feet
above the sea. The climate is there
fore warm in Summer and not so ex
tremely cold in Winter. There is a.
the same time that which is found il
all countries we have ever seen or reat
about, one drawback. There is con
siderable wind, but that is something
a person can become accustomed to
There is no alkali in the soil, the wa
ter is excellent, and taken altogether
we believe is as desirable place t
live in as any town Of its size in tn
western country. B. Register.

The Capital Removal.

We have heard many comments on
the removal of the territorial capital
from Boise City to Blackfoot. Some
seem to consider it good joke while
those who are better posted say there
is more truth than poetry in it. We
have now the complete census returns
Of the territory at hand, from which
the apportionment of the next Legisla-
tive Assembly will be made. But it
is we'll known fact that the increase
of the population Of the territory dur,
ing the past ten years has been very
much greatern in the eastern than in
the western counties, Oneida county
having the largest population of any
county in the territory, and Lemhi,
will come very near taking fourth
place in the list, with Owyhe. The
population Of the territory may be
said to be divided between the eastern
and western counties, and A.turus can
be surely counted among the eastern
counties, as it is inevitable that the
county seat OF that county will be re-
moved from the western edge of the
county to Belview, which is very near
the center, and where over one-half
the population of the comfy will be
located this Fall. 1t viii thus be seen
that the eastern counties of Oneida,
Lemhi, Bear Lake, Ca ssia and Altu-
rus, contain about three-ffths of that
Of the territory. At the capital, where
they havo access to the complete cen
sus returns, comes the first wall.
They are already getting little ner-
vous over the situation. Blackfoot
being ON the railroad and at the juno
ton Of the stages and freishting lines
for Alturus and Lemhi counties, as
Boise City, the present capital, is the
best location for the capital of any
town in the territory 1t is also the

Jay Gould will Extend his road TO Pu-
get Sound.

WAsHlNGToN, August 4, 1880.
A Washington special to the even
ing illustrated papers says Jay Gould
has had surveyors busy in Montana
and proposes to head off the Northern
Pacific by an extension of his own
lines to Puget Sound. He has had
surveys made OF the first .ercd
miles of the new track ana will
start from Cheyenne. 1T will pass
within 20 miles Of Fort Laramie or
perhaps run to that place and then 30
on to vicinity Of Fort Mckinney
thence the road will bear west throu yh
the Big Horn country to yellow Stone
park. The first thing Gould thinks
he can accomplish to make the road
pay expenses will be to turn tourists
toward the National park; this he Is
confident he can accomplish in susii-
Gent numbers to make the enterprise
profitable for the park no route has
been decided upon, but will probabl !
bear west south Of the Bitter Root
mountains along Snake river. The
surveyors are expected to report avery
day upon the first hundred miles, and
Gould will undertake to build that
much between now and the first of
January. The rapidity with which
the line will be pushed on from
the National park will depend some
what upon the vigor manifested by
the Northern Pacific people. The
first object is to head OF the rival en-
terprise, and if possible to Brighten
them out Of the field.

This hotel is situated on the Clear
water river opposite to Kamai. The
landlady Mrs. Lo supcrintends the
housework, while Mr.. Lo engineers
the ferry. We had occasion, three of
US, to stop over night at this hotel, we
took state rooms in the hay NOW and
were treated to grand supper and
breakfast of eggs, coffi e, bread, pota
toes, sarvis berries and milk. The
table was arranged with dishes and
Mrs. Lo superintendent the dining room

EDIroRs OF TUE REPUBLICAN, A grea
teal has been ssid in regard to Tn,
troubles likely to arise from the pro
posed parades of this week. The dan
ger, think, has been greatly exsgger
ated. The Mayor has been importuneo
to prohibit any political demonstration
previous to the election. Let the Nsyol
and his police do their duty as the
guardians Of law and order and nj
'erious trouble need be apprehended
| am not one of the parading fraternity
but there 10 principle involved in this
matter that is vital to American citi
zsnship. The right Of free discussion,
free assembly and free procession mus
not be tampsred with.
This right was vindioatsd a few years
sge in New York, vindicated at ths
point of the bayonet, and all good citi
zens regarded it as triumph of Law
and order. The Orangemen proposed
to parade; the Catholic Societies threat
ened an attack in case they should
There was danger of an outbreak
Mayor Hall, of New York, issued an
order prohibiting the proposed parade.
Governor Hoffman at once counter.
manded the order and declared that the
parade must be protected if need be by
all the police and military force of the
city. The result is we'll known. Let
as not depart from the principle settled
at that time. II q thousand men can
not walk upon the streets because they
are threatened with violence, then one
hundred have no right to do it, and il
one hundred have no right, then one
h.s DO right. II some one hates me
and threatens 10 assault me on the
streets, then must keep within doors
and become q prisoner for the rest Of
my natural life, and can't look to any
one for protection.
Out upon such nonsense. l regret
especially that the advice issaed from
one OF our pulpits should have taken
this direction. Who is this that pre-
sumes to sit in judgment upon men
who are the equals Of this pulpit light
in piety as well as in patriotism and
good sense? Severe csnsurs has been
neaped upon the campaign methods
used by the "best men OF both politi
cal parties" 1t would now be in order
We presume, for the best men of these
parties to issue some advice as to the
modern methods Of preaching in GER
tain pulpits and conducting campaign
work for the Master. These methods
used by the best men OF our political
parties are not more open to criticism
than the clap traps, sensational meth.
DDS used by some self.important preach
ers to keep up a decaying notoriety.
Some Of their declarations from the
pulpit concerning the recent riot have
only tended to keep up the excitems mt
and increase the danger Of trouble.
There is enough Of bad feeling in the
community without having it infam-
ed by bad whiskey and ill-oonsidered
utterances from the pulpit. "Let us
have peace" Let the Mayor clese uI
the saloons on the day AMI evening Of
parades. He has perfect right to dc
so. Let him take measures for preserv-
ing the public peace and all will be
we'll. A LAw.ABIDIEG CITIZEN.
