IT is nothing more than right that
those who took such all active part in
collecting ore specimens from the va
fous mining districts of the Territory
ior the Denver Exposition should be
paid. They are out a good deal in
time and money. Idaho's exhibit
was very creditable one, and the
representation of our mineral re-
sources compared very favorably with
'aat OF other states and territories.
Tue commissioners were self-appoint-
ca NO steps had been taken towards
lnaugurating said exposition VIXEN the
Legislature was in session two years
ago, and Of course there was no pow
er that could appoint such commits,
siohers. Governor Neil and Secreta-
y oIngiser, having the interests OF
me territory at heart, took the matter
~ hand, and through their lahors and
Tue labors of others appointed by them
iuaho made fine showing, whereas
" they had not taken an interest in
seeing our mining resources brought
'n'o prominence there wouldn't have
'eet pound of Idaho ore at the sX-
rosltlon and our rich and growing
'erritory would have been set down
~ the lowest in the list of the miner
m producing States and Territories.
;a ne Legislature ought to make provis'
,on ior the paying of those who took
S"on an active part in collecting and
ma.wardlng specimens of ore from ev-
S'E part of the Territory.

by Collector Robertson upon the exception taken
by +. G. Jennings 81 Co., against the contemplation
of an invoice of Ping-Sucy tea, which recently ar
rived here, have sustained the decision of Ex-
aminer James r. Davies. 1t was shown that this
tea was made from exhausted leaves and loaded
and coloring matter. Mr. MacGrcgor, whose
Office is at No. 119 Front-st., stated after
ward that since the law went into effect
the importation of such stuff has nearly stopped.
CONTRARY TO the general expectation" he said
1.-THE price of good teas has not been affected by the
action against the aduteratcd article" The tea
trade il in much better condition now than since
1879. The imports are moderate and will probably
be in the neighborhjod of 65,0O0OO0 pounds this
season This does not include the estimated i'm
norris for Canada. The estimate, including that
Tor consumption in Canada is: OF Japans
