An Expensive Book.


A well-knOwn firm of booksellers in the
Strand have on view, what must be. we
should think, one of the largest and most
expensive extra illustrated books in exis.
tence 1t is a copy of BoydelTs edition
Of Shakspeares works, which, by the in.
sertion of many thousands of plates, has
been extended TO thirty-six volumes.
Some idea of the vast quantity of the
plates ard the labor involved in their col
lection may be gained from the price of
the book. 800 pounds 1t is said that
this by no means represents the original
cost price. 1t is really melancholy that
men of education and a certain amount of
taste and intelligence should devote life
time and vast sums of money TO such OBJ
jccts as these. Printselers must, how.
ever, look at the matter in a different
light a really enthusiastic "Grangerite I"
with money must be a good income to
one of these gentry.

When some Americans, who had over.
heard the remark that Strasburg was
famous for pate de fol gras, reached
that old town one day recently, they
sailed forth in quest of the thing in ques-
ton. 1t is said that they actually went
into book store and asked the clerk for
pate de foie gras, and that. being a
true hearted human being he took them
aside whispering that what they wanted
was goose liver pie. Then unabashed
they went 10 an eating house and found
the pie thing awful to look back upon

to suit only the trained palate of the cpl

WE have taken pains to procure a copy
of the dispositions in the police charge
against L. j. Scott, referred to in yester-
days issue, in consequence of a letter
signed by Mr.. F. Godfrey, which APP
peared in another morning paper. We
did this for the purpose of verifying the
accuracy of the report that appeared in
the ADVERTISER of the 10th instant.
There is nothing in the deposition at
variance with the statement of fact in
that report, the only point being that it
was not expressly stated that Mr.. God
frey had appeared as witness and not
as a principal. This omission was rec
titled by us yesterday, and Mr.. Godfrey
had assurance from us that such would
I've the case. Not content with this assur-
ance, however, he went to another jour
nal and published a letter which is at
once offensive and ill-iudged, and which
demands recognition. 1t follows natu-
rally that if the gentleman named
had been principal in the case, he
would not have been a witness for the
prosecution, but he would not have
been a witness if he had not been
there. He should have been content
with what was promised and per
formed, and not have provoked dis
cussion. If he is still unsatisfied he
may set himself right by publishing
a detailed narrative of the occurrence
and the sworn testimony in the case
For ourselves We desire to be done with
It altogether, although if it becomes
necessary, for the vindication of our re-
porter, we shall not hesitate to publish
the sworn testimony. . a.ssaza

NOW FOR THE FOURTH F.!

The various Fourth of July CON-

work with will, arrange the details
Of the celebration, and publish their
programs without delay. In Boise,
Ketchum and other cities the pro:

made up. a little energy at this right
time in this matter will do much To
assure the success Of the celebration.

As the miners are anxious to come
here to show their appreciation Of the

IN THE EAST.

A Really Deplorable Condition Of AT.
airs; Which should Make Us Feel
Thankful that We Live in the West.
Visitors who recently arrived from
the East bring rhournful reports of
the restitution prevailing everywhere.
In the cities the wholesalers are actu.
ally losing money, while the retailers
are scarcely doing better. The sharp
est of them prefer to keep their goods
rather than sell on credit. The dull
ness in business has caused a general
discharge of superAuous help, and
thousands of persons are in conse.
quence out Of employment. The
building and iron and steel trades feel
the prevailing depression the keenest;
but pretty much everybody is "hard
up," even the capitalists being in
straitened circumstances, owing to the
pressure Of their obligations.
In the country the situation is
worse. The grsin-growers have been
unable to bear tho depreciation in the
price Of cereals otherwise than by
n,ortgaging their farms, and maiiy of
them cannot even procure grain for
seed. The dairying regions are in
almost as deplorable a condition, be-
cause OF the improved quality OF En-
glish and Canadian butter and cheese,
which of late years has almost driven
American dairy products out Of the
English market.
The only regions where the inhab-
itants still enjoy comparative pros.
perity are those where, years ago, the
people turned their attention to the
raising of fine stock-such as in Ken
lucky and Iowa. But even these sec.
tons will soon feel The hard times, as
cattle is rapidly depreciating in price
The people in the East divide the
responsibility for all this about equally
between the parsin.onious Demo
cratic administration and natura
causes.

TION.

The Colorado Press Association ex-
cursion will leave Denver about the
a5sh Of July, ard may visit Wood
River, on the way to Portland. If
the business men of HALEY wish to
BENDER it reception, they must
make their wishes known without de
lay, as the program of the Association
will be definitely arranged by the LIST
of July, and it cahnot be materially
altered after that date.
OF course, other citizens than those
in charge Of the Iowa Press reception
will have to look after the Colorado
ans; as the task is too arduous to ex
pect the same persons to assume il
twice the same year.
