THE EXPECTED BOOM.
IL Has Passed Through Bellevue to
HALEY, the County Seat and Me.
frOnn1iS

IL Has Passed Through Bellevue to
HALEY, the County Seat and Me.
tropOlis.
The residents of Bellevue, poor
things! have been so intently looking
south, the past 10 months, for their
boom to come, that they cannot see to
the north now, although the boom is
that way. 1t has passed through that
town SO quietly that they didn't know
1t had come. Like the Aztecs who,
upon their housetops, look to the
Eastward every morning for their
promised salvation, Bellevue has
looked to the south. The Aztec boom
struck them on the back of the neck
from the west, and so it will strike:
Bellevue from the north, or, to be
more definite, at Haley. Some 400
men are now at work above Bellevue
and coming for HALEY as fast as posi-
bic. In fact a large number are now
working just below the town limits.
The number Of graders, tracklayers
and mechanics which will soon be at
work on the railroad terminal grounds
and buildings, on the /. & O. Land
Improvement Company's immense
water-ditch or canal, on the brick
block, the new brick hotel and the
courthouse, will bring a genuine boom
which will be sustained by the great
numbers of men that will be en-
ployed in the mines on the compile
ton of the railroad, and the large ore
product which will result ultimately in
inducing the building of the largest
smelting-plant on Wood River at
this place.
The end of the railroad track is
now only 10 miles south, and will
reach Haley in about three weeks
from to-day. 1t is certain that so soon
as cars land passengers here there
will be 10 times the present travel to
Hailey-which now is about 80 ar
rivals daily.

THE COSMOPOLITAN.
An Elegant New Club House Opened
Last Saturday.

Robertson & Stcrritt's CosmopoG-
tan clubhouse, in the old postoilice
building, on Main street, in this city,
was opened to the public last Satur-
day evening.
1t is charming place, and most
elegantly fitted up. On entering, the
first thing that strikes the eye is a
cosy little office, or sanctum, sepa-
rated from the main room bya railing.
Between this sanctum and the bar the
dummy, which is intended to supply
orders from the club-rooms up stairs
is seen. The bar is universally pro-
Eounced the most convenient ever
seen in any establishment of the kind.
This is not to be wondered at, as Mr..
Sterritt, wherever he has engaged in
business, whether in Portland or else
where, has always had the most ele-
giant establishment in the place.
At the rear Of the salo II are two
tables, one of which is for the devo-
tees of faro, with a limit of So, and
the other for 'stud'' poker.
The walls are papered with paper
Ct choice design and colors, the pre-
vailing ones being light blue, pink
and gold, and when the oil paintings
and pier glass now on the way shall
be in place, the saloon will have the
appearance of a bridal chamber.
THE CLUB-ROOMS.
The whole upstairs is taken up by
three club-rooms, the front one occu-
plying the half of the story, the
rear half being divided into two small
"private" rooms. In the front room
any game at cards may be INDUCED
in, and, when desired, the Royal Ben.
gal Tiger will be brought forth from
his den and given tree, unlimited
range. The smaller rooms will be
costly fitted up with tables, upholstered
seats, and lounges, and can be appro-
priated at any time, by any party of
two or more.
The stock of wines, liquors and
cigars cost over $4,000, and is prob
ably unexcelled in Idaho. Imported
and fine Key West cigars are a
speciality, AMI the Per!o, Studio and
Belinda, the favontc brands. OF
champagne there are four brands; OF
Bourbon one brand-McBrier's five
year-old; of Ryc-IIorser; also, Iris!
and Scotch whiskys; Old Black Swan
Holland Gin; Cognac Brandy-***
Hennessy, Martel and Sazerac. The
finest ever brought here.
The stock of French liqueurs is cs-
pecially complete, and includes Yer
mouth, Benedictine, Absinthe, Char
trcuse, Perfect Love, Curacao, and
Eau-de-Vie de Dantzig; and is
Aanked by Maraschino, kummel
Kirschwasser, etc.
Taken as whole the Cosmopolitan
is as complete and elegant an estab.
lishment of the kind as can be found
anywhere.

EX-SENATOR BRUCE.
His Views on the Virginia Election and
Southern Politics In General

His Views the Virginia Election and
Southern Politics In General
Washington Special
Several prominent bureau officials CHANGED
to meet in Secretary Folger's room to-day.
Among the number was ex-senator Bruce.
Register of the Treasury. The subject of
conversation was the recent election in Vir-
ginia. One of the gentlemen present, who
in his official relations is pronounced sup
porter of Malone, privately congratulated
himself upon his defeat, the reason being
that his methods were unfair, and his atti-
tude on the debt question obviously incon.
sistent with the record of the Republican
party Bruce pooh-poohed this as the veri-
est nonsense. Sentiment" said he 'fnds
no Judgement in politics. Sentiment and
politics are as wide apart as the poles. Po-
litical success is gained only by assmilating
all differing forces under one banner, and
winning victory by any means at COM
mand."
Probably" said the gentleman who had
first spoken, with the slightest possible APP
proach to sneer. "tnat accounts for your
stumpng the State of Mississippi in the in
terest of Chalmers man who more than
any other, your race have most reason TO
hate"
Drawing himself up with stately dignity,
Bruce replied: Sir, / went to Mississippi
at the request of the State committee to
make few speeches in places of their selec-
ton. / went not as the friend or champion
of Mr.. Chalmers or any other gentleman. 1t
was no part OF my business to inquire whom
they had nominated or why. 1t was my duty
as a Republican to secure the success of our
ticket. and | was there simply to enunciate
the principles of the Republican party with
out the slightest reference to any individual
who might be benefited by it,"
1t is said that Secretary Folger applauded
the sentiment very heartily. and that the
Kicker" crestfallen aud abashed, speedily
took his departure.

Exploits of MIR. Henry, Clerk of the Ken
lucky Court of Appeals.

Exploits of MIR. Henry, Clerk of the Ken
lucky Court of Appeals.
Frankfort Special to louisville Courier-Journai.
There is sensation in the Office of the
Clerk of the Court of Appeals. Bluntly,
Tom" Henry has furnished it. He has
been drunk, very drunk. beastly drunk,
drunk and disorderly. He was drunk last
week and the week before, and for the last
six weeks. He has neglected his bust
ness, deserted the State-house, and hied
himself to the wilds of Morgan county,
where liquor springs eternal i'll the soft
moonshne. Three weeks ago he went
to Louisville and painted that truly
good town n fiery, uncompromising red. As
one of my informants put it, He just raised
hell" Finally, after closing a couple of JET
ferson county distilleries he returned to
Frankfort and laid out every prize drunkard
that entered the lists. Sheboygan water was
poured down his throat like shot off a shovel.
but it sobered him not. Apolinaris, soda
cock tails and Turkish baths were tried and
retired. His desire seemed to be to knock
the record out, and he did so. After getting
outside of enough liquor to run the next
Legislature, his friends shipped him to the
mountains of eastern Kentucky, where the
'worms" of that section are writhing by
sunshine and mo6nshine to furnish him
fuel.
But seriously, Tom Henry has vacated his
office by an arrangement. the details of
which / cannot now give. The Court of APP
peals are disguised and worn out with his
continuous debauches. His work has been
entirely in the hands of his able deputies
Capt Sam. NJ. Gaines and Thomas G. Poore
As | understand it, a contract has been made
by Tom Henfy-with whom / do not know
accepting $3.50 month as his salary for the
remaining seven years of his term. He
agrees to surrender all perquisites and priv
ileses, to remain away from the Office, and be
clerk only III name. Messrs. Gaines and
Poore are to conduct the entire work, the
State to divide the salary of the Office be-
tween them. Whether the contract has the
sanction of the judges of the Court of APP
peals I do not know, but it is presumable
they are ccgnizant of the situation.

THE ARBITRATION LEAGUE.
The Meeting in Philadelphia-Letter from
General Grant.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 27.-The International
Arbitration League met to-day. The object
is to promote the adoption by nations of the
principle of international arbitration in the
settlement of disputes. A letter of regret of
his inability to be present was read from
General Grant He said:
my views on the subject of arbi-
tration are not changed, but
my hopes for its speedy accomplishment have
diminished. 1t is only by keeping the sub
ject alive that it can be accomplished sue
cessfully."
A number of letters and kilograms were
read, including dispatch from D. Appleton,
representing the arbitration league at Lon
don. 1t read:
Protest against the Franco-Chinese war.
You have my own cordial sympathy"
Bishop Simpson was chosen president.
The resolutions offered were referred to
proper committees when appointed. Among
the resolutions is one asking the United
States government to invite the Congress of
nations to consider the question of adopting
arbitration for the arrangement of all
differences. Prof. Hobbs, of Indiana,
read paper giving an account
of different cases of international arbitra-
tion and said the United States had been a
party to eighteen out of thirtythree. The
nations were rapidly approaching period
of universal peace. A great majority of the
people of this country and Great Britain
we're favorable to the adoption of a perma-
nent peace treaty, but the move must come
from Washington.
