But no one but Hester Partridge herself
could have had any idea of the dreadful
thing about to happen.

they viii vote the ticket and make a

THE DIVISION or IDAHO.

years ago to favor division Of Idaho
and tho annexation Of the fonr northern
counties to Washington Territory, and
because be stlll iayors division.

The abova statements OF facts arc true,
hut the deduction does not necessarially
follow. that majority are In favor OF
division. Mr. Leland really admits tho
falsity of lis reasoning when he further
asserts that III our Republican friends
