of those committees will do nothing ma

FINE GOODS.
Mr.. Paddock Trying ~ FIJI "a Long
Felt Wamt.''

The people of Wood River will have
none but the best of everything, and
prefer to pay higher pr,ce for first.
class goods than lower one for infe-
rior goods. Realizing this Charles f..
Paddock, sole agent in Idaho for
Wanamaker & Brown, of Philadel.
phia, the foremost establishment in
the world in the gents furnishing
goods line, has just put in stock of
goods for gents wear that for quality
and elegance is not equalcd in the
inter.mountain country. His store
adjoins Humphreys Nevada Chop
House.
This being only an experiment: Mr..
Paddock's stock is not very extensive,
but it is sufficiently comprehensive to
include almost everything that gen
tIeman may require in the way of
clothes or things to wear, no matter
how tnical his taste. If the expert
ment proves that this line Of goods is
really wanted here, Mr.. Paddock will
secure additional storeroom and order
stock that will fully meet the de-
mand.
As list of all the articles at Mr.
Paddock's would require too much
space, "a few will be mentioned to sat
isfy all counoisseurs of their general
excellence. For instance, there are
scal.skin caps; alligator, patent leath-
er, kid and velvet slippers; embroid-
cred silk suspcnders; silk handker-
chiefs; kid mitts; gloves and gaunt-
let's; fine dress boots and shoes; lG-
thread underwear; soft Aanncls, nj ght
wraps, etc. All OF these are of the
very finest quality aud workmanship,
while the prices which are marked
in plain figures, and the same to all
are really low for such goods. Call
and examine them.

Told just Right.

An observing writer describes the
second most comical thing IN nature
in the following terms: The funniest
thing Is frog, but the next funniest
is woman trying t. cross the street
in rain. There are certain things to
be done. 1t is desirable to keep the
bottom of her clothes dry, also her
feet. She stands on the edge Of the
curbstone and gathers handful on
both sides. She gets hold of her
waterproof only, and lets fall and
raises again, gathering in the dress
and skirt. Lets fall, shakes and tries
again. This time the skirt is all right,
but the dress drags; tries again; all
three are too ugh, and the instep Of
one foot shows. She gets discouraged
and gra>ps firmly on one side, and
starts across the street on her heels,
with one side of the dress and water
proof trailing in the mud, and about a
yard Of the skirt vlsiblGpn the other
side.

BOISE, December 20, 1854.
Mr.. Crawforl's resolution relative

referred t. the Committee on Terri
torial Affairs
Mr.. Smiths bill, providing for the
taxing of live stock owned by parties
residing in other States and Terrific
ries, but grazed in Idaho, was read
twice and referred.
The bill exempting all citizens who
are members of volunteer lire com.
panies from poIl-tax. and 20 members
to each 1000 OF towns population
from jury duty, was read the third
time and passed.
The Council then went into Com.
mittee Of the Whole to consider the
bill prohibiting Mormons from voting.
Mr.. Smith, of Oneida, made the
strongest anti Mormon argument ever
listened to in this place. He defend.
ed the const'tutionality of the bill, and
showed the absolute necessity Of the
law contemplated by 1t.
The bill was discussed at length,
and was finally passed. There is no
doubt of the concurrence Of the House
IN this action of the Council.
A joint resolution has been adopted
providing for the adjournment of the

The Territorial revenue law

The Territorial revenue laws
should he altered so that mortgage
debts could not be taxed. As they
are at present, the mortgaged prop
rrty is assessed, and the mortgage
also. This is double taxation, and
clearly unconstitutional; but few OF
those so taxed care to stand suit or
have their titles clio llcd. Hence they
pay.
