NORTHERN IDAHO'S POLITICS..

The Statesman is Of the opinion that
if the people of Northern Idaho seri-
ously contemplate ruunin. an indepen-
dent candidate, and that, to', in a bolts
ers' convention, they are making o,
mistake they will live to greatly regret.
1t looks like hopeless movement.
There are but four counties in North
ern Idaho, and these can he out voted
by any one OF number of the counties
in the southern section. Boomerangs
are plenty about election time, and
this certainly has the appearance on
its face. The Statesman is in the pos
session of great many facts which
show that this independent movement,
will injure the people OF Idaho, and .ts,
advises its hundreds of readers in tAn1
I&eclion to set down upon the
3bene.. Annexation will DO

rear of the house. He heard some
one trying the door, and going
to crack saw stranger. The man saw
him at the same instant and said ~Let NJ !

for help and his father came with q te
volver. The man fed but Mr.. PARCEL ZEN

in the barn revealed a huge pile q
clothes taken from noighborilg lines.
The thief then went to Mr.. Norris ho1s
over pop factory on Second street, sni
by the aid Of ladder climbed into win
doW. He stole an overcoat, cap, blanke
and other articles without arousing an!
one. He then went to the house of Mrs

corner Of Sixteenth avenue north ant
Fourth street. Mrs. Brightenstein wa
on the stairs when he opened the out
er door. The burglar seized her by tn arm
and demanded her money, or her lif,
would be forfeited. The woman pluckily
struck him a singing blow in the face AMI
screamed for assistance. The scoundre
thereupon beat a precipitate retreat. Thu

also visited. A board was torn from hi
fence with which a window was broker
