To THE ED1roR OF THE TINES
A cranky communicated appeared
this morning in the lnter-idaho, that
does little honor to the writer and still
less to the publisher. If y man wants
to build church, and feels so sancti
monious about it rs to fill newspa-
per with columns of empty twaddle,
does he show better his "Christian re-
liyion" by insulting his fellow-citizens
who may differ from his views? What
need has he to reha III all that uncalled
for and slanderous bosh of "Papal
prosecutions, + dark ages, the
horrors CT the Papacy," etc? These
IMPRESSIONS, he knows, are no less than
fragrant insults flung into the face OF
Catholics who, to say the least, are en-
titled to respect, and who do not wish
to retalate and see religious discus
sions in our pea"eabIe community. A
writer who adopts such means to vent
his bigotry among educated people
comes up fifteen hundred years toe
late and makes himself contemplate
A CATHOLIC.

Gently took trip through the county

some what monotonous for the solitary
passenger for few days, when they
arrived at a station near Sawtooth, at
which point young lady took pas.
sage for the remainder of the journey.
The aforesaid official is naturally re-
served and very reticcnt, but the
young lady proved an excellent com.
panion and charming conversational
,st, and soon mastered the situation.
The stern heart Of the official relaxed,
the rheum atism Of iour.score and ten
was forgotten, and under the influence
OF the charmer he forgot the duties of
the sage and was carried back to the
days of yore when he was dsshi"g
gallant, a "masher of hearts that were
all but divine" What happy thoughts
were conjured in his mind for that
one Cay over the mountains, no one
will ever kno~; but what was his in
diynation when he arrived ut ketchum
''those who run might read" The
thoughts of youth vanished and the
blissful dream was supplanted by Il
spirit OF stern justice and revenge
when he saunte.ed past u concert hal

playing violin in the orchestra Of s
place crowded with beer-drinkers ant
merry makers.

Colonel George l.. Shoup, Com
missioner for Idaho at the Worlds
Fair to be held in New Orleans, ar
rived in Haley last night, accom-
panied by Hon. J. l.. Onderdonk.
They went on up to ke'chum this
morning, intending to return this af
ternoon, and leave again o-morrow
morning.
Colonel Shoup comes here to confer
with such Of our prominent citizens
as he can meet regarding ldaho's ex-
hib;t> and to make arrange ments to
secure few wild animals, ore speci-
mems, punches CT wild and tame
grasses, large vegetables, aud other
curiosities peculiar to this region.
He intends to pay particular attention
to our mineral resources, and has al
ready secured ior exhibition over five
tons of choice ore specimens.
He desires to make the Wood River
exhibit as full and creditable as pos
sible. To that end, after consultation
with such Of our mining men as he
was acquainted with, he appointed J..
A. Rupert, of HALEY, agent for the
collection OF specimens Of ore, ce-
reals, vegetables, etc. Any sent to
Mr.. Rupert will be carefully for
war.led to New Orleans.
This exhibit will cost the citizens
of Idaho absolutely nothing. The Di-
rectcrs of the Exposition have ap'
portioned $4,000 to Idaho, to~ard the
cost Of the exhibit, but this amour,
will be required to pay for printing 9
descriptive pamphlet of our resources
by counties, under the direction Of
Mr.. Onder,lonk. The cost Of carry
ing the exhibit to New Orleans, ar
ranging it properly, and all inc'denta
.. expenses (Which will probably amou"
, to $40, 600 more) Colonel Shoup vii
pay for out Of his own pocket. l

$ commercial interests center in on,
: small section of Idaho, is sufficient,
). public-spirited to pay out $4,000, o
