entertained by his fellow citizens for
the pleasant social relations they have
maintained with all while here.
There were G3 persons in attend
ancc, only three gentlemen being UNI
accompanied by ladies. The supper
was an old-fashioned banquet such as
is usually spread at the Merchants
Hotel upon State occasions.
The dance was most admirably con-
Quoted, and at supper eight dozen
bottles Of champagne We're toasted off.

THE FLOUR FAMINE.
The Situation Becoming Quite Alarm.
Ing.

IuEs
Several families of Haley are en-
tirely out Of flour, there is still none at
the stores, and there is no quantity of
it nearer than Little Wood River, on
the kelton road, or 20 miles out Camas
Prairie way, on the Boise road. At
least, that is the report brought in by
the stage-drivers. In the present con-
dition Of the roads freight teams can
not make over eight miles day-so
that it will be eight days, at least, be-
fore any heavy team can get in here
with -four. To add to the gravity of
the situation, several mine boarding
houses have run out of flour, and none
can be obtained. J. q. Swift & Co,
of ketchum, supplied a couple of
thousand pounds, last week, which
was brought down on the stage, but
they too are liable to run out, and re.
fuse to sell except to regular custom
erc. The Haley Bakery has beer
closed three days, because of the lacl
of -four, and there will soon be n,
bread.

THE CHINESE VOTE.
An Element that Mr.. Bixby is Evidently
Trying to Secure.

1t will be remembered that, a year
ago,the County Commissioners, in can
wasting the returns on the county seat
vote, declared that Bellevue had
majority of one. As one Chinaman
had been permitted to vote in Belle
vue, it was generally understood that
that one vote majority was the China
mans. Mr.. Bixby, then, as now,
Chairman of the Board of County
commissioners, was present at the
count OF these returns, and declared
the result. This seems to have given
Mr.. Bixby an idea that the same thing
may occur at the coming election ; he
has therefore taken steps to secure the
Chinese vote by having his cards
printed on Chinese board, with two
Cinnamon in the left-hand corner
struggling for bunch of Chinese
cigars. Mr.. Bixby will doubtless cap
ture the Chinese vote ; his opponent
had therefore better be on his guard
as there is no telling how strong, nu.
merically and otherwise, that vote
may be.

The TIMES staff Of regular writer's
and occasional contributors was added

the following article, which he sub

he was engaged Here is his pro-
duction:
Truly, Idaho resembles sunny Italy
in more ways than one. The land
and the water are similar. The same
sun shines on both, while the true
cloudless sky seen in Italy is ours all
summer long. Vienna is to the north
Of US, and Shoshone is, by the p. O..
D., called-Naples. Boulder peak is
a counterpart of Mount Blanc, the
lava fields of the base of Mount .Ftna,
and Boise of Rome, while thousands
of Italians are working upon the rail
road lines all about us, and maccaroni
soup is served at every lunch-stand.
Viva la Italia! The customs of old
Italy are also current here. Tie laz-
zaroni are everywhere, while the ban
ditti are-where? During the past
month the stages and freightcrs have
been stopped or ''held up" in true
bandit style, and they went through
them; several fights have occurred
where the poigniard was used.
Several business men are missing,
and creditors fear that they have been
kidnapped by the bandits, and hid
away in the lava beds for ransom,
while in Boise the citizens, dwellings
have been entered nightly through

THE GRAND JURY.
THEY PRESENT THEIR FINAL RE.
PORT, AND ARE DISCHARGED.
DIR. Miller Highly Complimented jail
improvements Recommended "A
Branch Jail to be Erected in Bellevue
The Employment Of Experts on the
County Books Suggested.


The members of the grand jury
came into Court this morning, pre-
scented their final report, and were
discharged. Following is the report:
To the Hon. II. +. Pricketr, Judge Of
the Second Judicial District Court, in
and for Alturas County, Idaho.
We, the members of the Grand
Jury, do most respectfully report as
follows, viz: That during our brief
sess ion of six days, we have found
five true bills and ignored three.
During our session we have examined
the county Jail at Haley, and branch
iails at Bellevue and ketchum, also
the county hospital, county records,
etc. The several reports OH the above
are as follows:
We found the Jail at Haley in a
good, clean and healthy condition.
That the prisoners there confined
were supplied with good and sufficient
bedding and wholesome food. We
would recommend that ceiling of
twoinch plank be spiked on in five
cells; also, that bunks or bedsteads
be placed in the several cells; as the
prisoners are now occupying mattress
ses on the floor; also, that new roof
be placed on the jail at Ketchum, and
a partition placed therein, so as to
make two cells for the safekeeping of
prisoners. BY these additions the
Jail at ketchum can be made comfort
able and safe.
As to the jail in Bellevue, we found
it in an unsafe condition, not fit for
the safe keepingof prisoners, as has
been proven in several cases of recent
date. Also, that it is situated too far
from town, making it announcement
for the transportation of prisoners, and
insecure from its isolated position
We would recommend that the coun-
ty commissioners procure or erect a
suitable building within the town Of
Bellevue, to be used as jail.
COUNTY BOOKS AND RECORDS.
In the examination of the county
books and records we would recon
mend that the county commissioner
employ two or more experts to ex
anime the books of the several officers
as there has not been in several year.
a thorough examination of the same
and that this present grand jury woul'
not have the time to make the examin
alton. Therefore would suggest tina
the experts be employed at once, am
report to the Board of County Com
missoners without delay. We fin,
the several offices used by the count,
officers kept in business-like man

HOSPITALS.

We find everything on and about
the County Hospital, at Warm Springs,
under the supervision of DR.. S.
B. Miller, in perfect order,
and cleanliness, and the physician and
his attendants courteous and attentive
in their several duties. That the san
itary effects of the building were in
perfect order, and great credit is due
DR.. Miller for the many improvements
he has instituted in and about the
buildings, for the comfort and con-
venience Of the patients. We also
recommend that the Board of County
Commissioners take such steps as will
lead to the abolition of all toll-roads,
toll-bridges, etc, and would suggest
that they adopt the most feasible way,
either to purchase or procure the same.
We would also recommend that, in
the future, suitable apartments be Sc
cured for the accommodation of Grand
.Juries. That we have suffered con-
siderable annoyance and distress by
occupying place not secure from in
terruption and knowledge of the pub
lie Of our actions.
We must respectfully thank the
Hon. H. E. Prickett, presiding Judge
of the District Court, for his kind at
tentions to US during our sessions ;
also, the Deputy District Attorney, for
his strict attention also to the Sheriff
and his deputies, for their prompt and
efficient duties in procuring witnesses
to attend before US, many of whom
had to be brought from great dis
lance. Also our thanks to our efficient
Foreman and Clerk.
Most respectfully,
