The Idaho Polygs

Last summer the Tribune published
a notice OF one Henderson, living at
Oneida, Idaho, coming here with his
wife aud young girl to 60 through
the Mormon Endowment House. They
stopped at a hotel, the man and wife
and his victim all occupying the same
room. Next day they went through
the sink Of iniquity. and the girl be.
came concnbine of the man through
church authority. Our publishing the
fact brought the matter to the notice
of the officials of Idaho, and Hender-
son was indicted for the offense. AS
is very commonly the case, he was no
tilted in time to skip, and this he did.
A few days ago be returned to see
how things were going around his
harem, when an officer served the
warrant on him. He gave bonds to
appear for trial at the next term Of
court in Malad. We understand that
there has been quite a scampcring
among some Of the polygs in that
county, and many others are on the
ragged edge, fearing that the Ed
mund's bill may be made applicable
to them. We have information of 9TH
ers who have lately gone into polyga-
my, residing in Oneida county, Idaho
and Of some who are to visit here in q
few days to enter into this beastly
practice of the Latter-Day Frauds
There are more polygamous Maria
ges being contracted now than at any
time in the past, the good behavior o.
the Mormons and their boasted obedi.
ence to the laws to the contrary. With
courts hampcrcd by bad jury sys'
tenn, and in other respects. and PERU
~ reduced to a fine art among the
Mormons, there is much more required
than the Edmund's law to check po
lygany in Utah and the adjoining Ter
ritor;es where the Mormons assume
control OF affairs.

salmon River Wagon Road
Nez Perez News

We last week Published an excel
lent letter from correspondent in
Idaho county setting forth the advan-
taces which would accrue to Lewiston
and North Idaho from the completion
of military wagon road from the
Little Salmon meadows down Salmon
river to White Bird, from whence there
is good road to Mt. Idaho. The sub.
iect is not new, but it has never, of
late years, received the treatment at
hands of the local press which its i'm
portance merits. The ninety miles Of
the road from Weiser city to Little
Salmon meadows has been built by the
settlers in that portion of South Idaho.
The editor Of this paper did one days
work on that road and has travelled
over it since its completion. From the
present terminous Of the road on the
meadows, to the junction Of the Little
Salmon with the main Salmon there is
but one piece of hard work, and that
is over SeCesh mountain, and as our
correspondent says, by taking the can.
Won around the base of the mountain
down the Little Salmon, would run
through the White Bird Mabe, a fine
extent Of rolling, pasture land, lightly
timbered and abundantly watered,
where White Bird made his summer
camp before the break out of 1911
The Little Salmon meadows have an
altitude of 5000 feet, if We remcm-
Der rightly, and the highest point on
the route would be Seeesh mountain
In the early days this trail was the
main travelled route between Lewiston
and Boise City. and is passable at all
seasons of the year. The worst part
Of the route is the few miles on Sal.
mon river from the mouth of the Little
Salmon TO the mouth of White Bird
The completion of this road would d.
vert the entire tide of overland immi.
grafton through North Idaho and thus
give an enormous impetus to the set
