sHosHoNE COUNTY BOUNDARY

Inc nrst act organizing ana dennlnS
the boundary of Shoshone county was
passed by the Washington Legislature,
December 81, 1861. This act made the
northern boundary 'the main divide be-
tween the Palouse river and the North
Fork Of the Clearwater" The first act
passed by Idaho Territory made this
northern boundary 10 this language "where
the summit Of the Bitter Root Range
turns in westerly direction and is called
Ceur d'Alene, thence with said Ceur
d Alene range of mountains in a westerly
direction until point is attained from
which, running line due south, will
strike the mouth of the South Fork of
Clearwater This act Of the Idaho Leg.
islature was passed at its first session and
became law February 4, 1864 and there
by extended Shoshone county to the
north as far as the 4Sth degree Of north
latitude and its northern boundary has
never been changed since that time by
any act Of the Idaho Legislature. The
first organization Of kootenai county was
passed ut the Second Session Of the Idaho
Legislature and approved December 22,
1864 and its southern boundary was the
4Sth parallel and the county embraced
all Of Idaho Territory north Of that line.
The county Of Lahtoh then organized
at the same time embraced all of Idaho
Territory between Clearwater river, ex-
tending east to the mouth of the Sodth
Fork on the south and the 4Sth parallel
on the north, except what was embraced
in Shoshonc county on the east. In the
language Of the act creating Lahtoh we
End that it says beginning at point
in the main channel Of the Snake river
ut its Junction with the Clearwater river;
thence running due north along the divid-
ing line between Washington and Idaho
Territories, to the 4S,h degree Of north
latitude; thence east with said d,grce Of
latitude until it intersects the boundary
line Of shoshoue county; thence south
with the boundary line Of said county to
the middle channel Of Clearwater river;
thence with the channel Of said river to
its junction with Snake river, to the
place Of beginning" 1t is evident then
that Shoshone county extended us far
north as the 4Sth parallel and that the
whole Of the east line Of Lahtoh county
was along the west line Of Shoshouc
county as far north as the 4Sth parallel,
SO far as Shoshone county is concerned
its western line has never been changed
since that time. AT the 4th session Of
the Idaho Legislature, that body passed
an act abolishing Lahtoh county, giving
to Kootenai all of Lahtoh north of the
main divide between the waters Of the
Palouse river aud k.htUh or Hangman's
creek to the westerly line Of ShCshone
county aud all south Of this divide they
gave to Mes Ptrce county. But they

nominee for President, is resident Of the
City Of Buffalo, New York. For many
years be was prominent practitioner

ing one Of the leading lawyers Of West
ern New York. In 1881 he was elected
Mayor Of the City Of Buffalo. Shortly
alteS he assumed the duties Of this Office
the Buffalo Express, one Of the leading
Republican papers Of that section, began
to point out and expose, through its col
umns, certain irregularities among the
common council Of that city aud, as Mr..
Cleveland was not slow in reading his
duty, these councilmen were brought to
IN account and justly punished. This

blaine Attempting RevoIu ton.

On Wednesday and Thursday last, the
two days following the election, the
Blaine voters were cautiously told by the
Blaine managers that they believed,
that they had carried New York. They
did not venture to 'sclaimn the State, but
they ''had hopes"
That was not unnatural. The returns
came in slowly, and the Blaine 'esti-
nates"-based on the presumed effec-
tivcness Of a vast corruption fund raised
at the Gould-Blaine dinner and in the
Union Leagne club the last week of the
canvass for immediate use-were all, of
course, in their own favor. But the
actual returns as they came in proved
those estimates wrong. What hap
pened2
BY Friday morning the returns were
in, and two men who more than all
others in this country have the habit of
getting the earliest correct news of all
important matters and the facilities for
getting it-these two men, Jay Gould
and William Fl. Vanderbilt, had got the
correct news. and fastened to congrat-
uIate President elect Cleveland Mr..
Gould was the earliest, for he telegraphed
President Cleveland his congratulations.
Mr.. Vanderbilt, more deliberate, wrote

On London Brjdoe.

A London letter to the Boston Herald
says: The sun fairly up, who shall de-
scribe the scene which Immediately en-
sues upon London bridge 7 The rat
Ting and rumbling and laundering Of
teams, light and heavy, grows in volume
and ear-splitting din with every moment
that passes. Two currents of streaming
humanity, equally divided by the road
way, and occupying the two sides of the
bridge, pour increasingly over its surface
and empty constantly into the great sea,
which is never full, beyond. As the
hour for opening business and working
operations approaches, faster and more
noisily flows the stream, until the tor
rents rush on, remorselessly, unheeding,
overwhelmingly. Counter currents are
like special trains upon railroad they
have no right of way, and must present
no obstacles to the regular, customary
movements. Loiterers and intruders and
interlopers are of small account, and haye
few respected rights. A block here and
now, from any cause, over six feet Of
space, would instantly influence the con
duct Of thousands Of people in the vicin-
itY- Long continued, it would result in
something like panic; but itseldom oc-
ours or is allowed to take place. Hence
forth, until long after the suns setting,
there will be no cessation of the snrging
Of the human tide.

Romance o, a Journalist.

1t is when relating some anecdote or
adventure from his plentiful storehouse
that Mr.. Stanley's face lightens up, and
he permits himself even to be enthusias-
tic. As one might expect from a man
who has lived 50 many years among
native tribes, he has remarkable fac
ulty in the use Of gestures, which makes
b im an admirable raconteur. Languages
come easily to him. Heaven only knows
how many he speaksl It is very pleas
ant to hear Mr. Stanley talk of his early
days, when he had his hands full of
journalistic work He was early Injured
to hardships and bloodshed ia the civil
war and in many skirmish with the In
dians. There was a fierce competition
among the correspondents attached to
the different armies, and the best man rose
to the top. A record Of each mans cor
respondence was carefully kept, and he
was judged accordingly.
So Mr.. stanley's prompitude and alert
ness to seize. every chance constantly
stood him in good stead until one day,
while acting as correspondent in Madrid,
he received telegram summoning him
to Paris. Packing up few necessaries
in portmanteau, he took the first train,
arrived in Paris at midnight, drove to
the Grand hotel, went up to Mr.. Gordon
Benefits bedroom and aroused that ia
nous newspaper proprietor from his first
sleep. Here l am. What is it you
wish of me?" And it was then that the
Livingston expedition was decided upon
in brief conversation. ''some people
say that Livingston is dead, some say he
is alive. What do you say to going to
look for him2"
cam quite sure that I understand
youa Do you mean me to 60 70 the heart
Of Africa, and organize an expedition,
and have you reckoned the cost" "Cer-
tainly." 'sThen l accept the commits
sion." "When will you startln ITO
morrow morning; there Is nothing to
keep me In Paris" Then as Mr. Stanley
rose to say goodbye, Mr.. Gordon Ben
nett remembered dozen other little
things which might be done first, such
as the opening of the Suez canal, visit
to Moscow and Constantinople, trip to
Persia, an inspection Of some excavations
at Jerusalem, and so on. So Mr.. Stanley
departed with this appalling series Of
commissions to fulfil. There is beau
tiful saying in the Old Testament which
1 have always kept before me, 'Whatso-
ever thy hand find to do, do it with all
thy might From the time when 1 was
a reporter on the New York press to the
present day, have done what 1 have set
myself to do with a will. ."-PaH Nall

Commander Schley has been giving
"reminiscences Of his trip to the Arhtic in
search of Greely: " One morning, when
the atmosphere was hazy from light
fall of snew, in going a stiff. nine-knot
gait, we ran plump into an iceberg that
was in our way, and which no one could
see. For moment I thought every
mast would go by the board, and that
my hair and teeth had preceded them.
| never got quite such shock l was
nearly thrown out of the crows nest.
expected soon to hear the Alert was
leaking. But, strange as it may seem,
with rebound of at least thirty feet,
there was not seam started. It was
almost miraculous that we had no catas-
trophe, and shows how thoroughly that
ship was built for just such encounters
in those seas. On another occasion when
over against Greenland coast, counted
not less than 1900 icebergs that had
been pushed from the glacial formation
on the sloping headlands Of the coast
into the sea. We could occasionally
hear the cracking that indicated the
fssure; but the sight of these majestic
monarchs of the sea sailing off in the
morning sunlight, with all the colors of
the prism, was something that cannot be
described. Fascinating region2 do you
ask. Never one more so. / wanted
to stay there awhile. Even the men I
took at New Bedford and New London
jumped at the chance to go, though some
Of them said they did not expect to come
back again. Why, after we got Greedy,
and our mission was accomplished, |
never felt such pang Of dlsappoint-
ment that, with seventy-two days of
summer weather before me, and an open
sea, was obliged to turn my PROV
homeward and abandon the chance to
geta higher latitude than any other ex-
plorer.n
