From The Southeast.

The Oxford Enterprise, published
in Oneida county, of date l4th Oct.
published the programme in full, of
our executive committee Of the indie
pendant organization.
We give much Of our space this
week to articles from our valued ex
change the Lewiston TELLER, - We he
lieve it due to the people of northern
Idaho that their views should be known
to the rest Of the people Of Idaho
If the movement to bring out an
independent candidate had been put
in motion about one month earlier,
and before the nomination of Mr.
Smith, we have no doubt it might
have been entirely successful, but at
this late day to attempt the election
Of an independent candidate would
render certain the forcing of Mr..
Smith from the field and make Ain
slie's election certain
The subject matter of the platform
presented by our northern friends,
while pretty thoroughly approved by
majority of the thinking minds OF
this section of the territory, yet the
MASSES of the voters would need fur
ther discussion of the subject, before
harmonious effort could be expected
to secure the election of an independ
ent delegate.
AS to the question Of the annexa
ton of the northern counties referred
to, we can see no sound reason tina
could be presented against it, if thu
majority of her citizens desire it, ant
we do see mary good reasons why /
ought to be done as a matter OF lustlc
to the settlers of hat section OF tn
territory.
There can he nothing gained for til
people of the north in voting for Ain
size, and some good may be accom-
plished in electing Smith, so let on
friends north choose the least OF tn
two evils and vote for Alanson Smitl
t Did you kno~ that Smith had nc
8 only declared against annexation bt
= also against Capital removal, yo
a would spew him in double quick tim
We of the north, save few who e.
+ pect personal favors from either All
t size or Smith, have long since dete
c mined to drop them both aud go fl

e annexation and the Capital remove
e Brayman's nomination was made {
l. the eve after the day you PUBLISH
c. the above, which had you known, "

a. our platform, would have dropp

The Blackfoot Register of the 10th
publishes the programme of cur indie
pendent executive committee and the
editor of that paper writes under date
of the llth that he shall come out for
Brayman as soon as he learns that we
Of the north have formally nomina
ted him and that he is pledged to the
removal of the capital. His nomina
ton was telegraphed to Blackfoot OIL
the 18th and soon after the fact o
his being pledged rightly on the issue
of annexation and removal.

From Camas Prairie

A private letter from Camas Prairie
says that good portion of the demo-
Gratis and nearly all the republicans
will vote for Brayman for delegate,
while few democrats dare not shake
off the yoke that Ainslie has fastened
upon them by his nomination at Boise.
1t is intimated that the friends Of
Morris claim that he has show for a
nomination for congress at the next
democratic terr;tnr;:s,.,, convention if he
adheres to Ainslie at this election, and
so infatuated are they with his pros.
poet of u nomination that they prefer
to sacrifice the question of annexation,
rather than spoil his chances. If Nor
ris wants preferment among the PEG
| pie of North Idaho he had better &C
with the people than against them b,
adhering to a man who is adverse t,
their interests. 1t will be well fo
Morris and his friends to consider thi
and not sell out the north by thei
vote at the coming election. If the.
arc opposed to annexation let then
say SO at once and not make a doubt
full record by their vote in this elet
ton. They cannot dodge the direc
issue for it is made fairly and squarely
! Brayman for annex ltion and Smit
and Ainslie against it, and all thei
mincing matters will avail them notl
ing. Brayman will carry the norther
: counties.

The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1880-07-11
For Love of Adventure,

MIR. James T. Carey, the oldest resident
blacksmith and machinist of Dallas, few
days since, the mere love of adventure and
enterprise, pulled up stakes and moved to
TaJ lor county, on the line of the Texas &
Pacific railroad, intending to constitute part
OF Its great caravan westwardbound. From
the HERALD especially and the people of
Dallas generally, he deserves more than this
simple announcement. Born of Irish parents
IN Troy, New York, he arrived in Dallas in
1857, an educated mechanic and mschinist.
As soldier for years in the Confederate
army. and as citizen since, his conduct has
been honorable and his labors useful. Well
read, tried and true, he deserves the conf
dence and support of good men wherever his
lot may be cast. We so speak after he has
gone, and our remarks will be endorsed by
all who know him in the city and county Of
Dallas.
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1880-07-11

The Republicans say Hancock is no states
man and has no record. VIII they agree to
reopen the question of 'local government"
and the post-bellum differences of opinion
that were agitated between General Hancock
and the Republican administration Come
out squarely now, and we venture the pre-
diction that no argument can be produced
outside of our candidates letters on that SUBJ
ject. And if he was right in his construction
Of the constitution as to the subordination OF
military to civil authority in time of peace,
who was wrong? Have not his ideas been
acquiesced in by the administration succeed.
ing that Of General Grant, and is there a
voice in the land now being raised in favor OF
Sheridans bayonet policy? If events proved
the wisdom of Hancock's policy, in the
name of justice credit him with the fruits Of
his benefcent and equitable use OF
power, conferred, but never abused,
under the restraining sense Of
legal and constitutional obligation.
We venture another prediction-that the
Republicans will oppose West Point appro-
priatons at the next term Of congress. This
thing of man being educated at public ex-
pense to save the union, and then not favor
ing the government being administered by
people who were in congress while he was
doing the saving business, is about "played
OUT with them.
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1880-07-11

ATTENTION is called to the report Of the
committee appointed by the district court to
examine into the financial condition of Gregg
county, and the official acts of the county
officials. The committee was composed OF
gentlemen of wealth, intelligence and highest
responsibility. The report is altogether flat
tering to the county officials, and we here
take occasion to state that all the gentlemen
holding comfy office in Gregg county are
above reproach in all their official acts, are
capable, courteous, and command the respec,
of all who know them.
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1880-07-11

THERE is chance for the Turkish empire
in Europe coming to a speedy end. The
powers signing the Berlin treaty have de.
manded that the stipulation in regard to the
Greek frontier, which conceded large slice
of the territory of the Turk to the Greek, be
speedily complied with. The porte hesitates
and it is thought may refuse, which will be
immediately followed by war, short work Of
that effete empire, and then perhaps by =
general war over the division of the 81 oils.
