The report of the Director

The report of the Director Of
the Mint for the year 1884 is received
Idaho's yield of gold and silver during
the year is placed at "a 900, 600, which
is too low by at least $3,O0O,OOO. Al.
turas figures for 100000 gold and
81, 45O,O 900 silver, in that total which,
as every one here knows, falls short
of our actual yield by at least $4,000.
600. DR.. Burchard was evidently mis-.
informed.

Lewiston Teller: We have
ZEN no petition in this section asking
for the displacement Of Judge Buck.
II there ever was one, it must have
circulated secretly. y = Judge
Buck seems to pursue the even tenor
Of his ways, and don't seem to take
any alarm of bis situation. He is q
hard working and fair-minded Judge,
and from our standpoint We think the
people generally of every political par
ty hero desire his retention upon the
bench of North Idaho. We dom,
think any substitute will be better OF
more highly esteemed among the PEG
ple.

WOOD RIVERS RECORD.
ADA AND ALTUKAS.

While the debt of Alturas has been,
and is, steadily accumulating, that Of
Ada-our adjoining county-has been
diminishing so rapidly that in
another year, il the Ada Commission
ers continue to prove competent and
true to their trust, it will be wiped
out As, year ago. Ada county's
debt amounted to about $147, 0OO, this,
reckoning interest, will amount to the
payment of debt OF about $170, 900
in two years!
Think Of that, taxpayers Of Alturas!
While "Bos.y." which we frequently
ridicule, shsll have been paying of a
heavy debt, we shall have been incur.
ring one equally as great. And one,
too, that each and every one of US
vii! have to pay share Of. OF course,
we now address those honest enough
TO pay taxes; and not those who con
ceal or cover up their property so that
neither the tax collector nor their ere.
dito's can get At il.
We'll, can you see any good reason
why it should cost US so much to be
governed while it costs our adjoining
county 30 little? Because the Sheriff
does a great deal of business for which
he gets paid according to Law? Pshaw
Because the Probate Judge receives
500 per annum more than in Ada:
Bosh! Because that dreadful "ring''
(WHICH on1y existed in the imagiua-
s;on Of . few lifelong politicians too
lazy to work) run the county? Fid.
dlesticks!
1t is because, in AlturAs, the county
business is run at loose ends, in an
unbusiness-like way. In Ada county
the public printing costs but $3.50 pei
yess, aud is let by contract to the
lowest bidder; in Alturas county it il
liable to cost teal times that amount.
In Ada county the care Of the indig-
eat sick is also let by contract to the
lowest bidder; in Alturas county it is
lat aby favor" and costs nearly double
what It could be done for.
This list might be continued almost
indefinitely ,but that no PRACTICAL good
can come Of it at present. Besides
the season OF "peace and good will
toward men, is approaching, and we
would fain enjoy the respectable fes'
tivities incident to the occasion il,
civilized countries.
After che holidays, WIN n we again
get our courage up to the sticking
point Of being vilely abused for per-
forming Que al the simplest duties Of
the honest newspaper maa, we will re.
fer to this matter again.

LIFELONG IlBERALITY.

In addition TO the twenty million
endowment Of the Leland Stanford.
IT,, University, Governor and Mrs.
Stanford have just presented their art
gallery to the city Of san Francisco.
This collection of paintings and other
works OF art is the result Of the joint
purchases Of Mr.. and Mrs. Stanford
and their deceased son, during their
trips to Europe, and cos. nearly half
, million dollars!
In this connection the TIMES is in
position to adj its mite Of reward to
she muni6ccnt donors of these gifts by
making public a fact not generally
known. And that is that duriag the
past 20 years Mr.. and Mrs. Stanford
have been liberal contributors to al
most every public charity in the State
Vi California and to many similar in
st.,utions elsewhere. besides giving at
least $500 per month to needy perso' 8
~ho could prove themselves deserving
Of charity. This amount was placed
to the credit o. lis private secretary,
every month, aud by him dishursed rs
he saw fit, Mr.. Stanford never in.
quiring into the matter ut all.
This fact, we believe, has never
besn mentioned in priut before; and
It Is aslv Published at this. time te
show that the University endowment
is not the result Of sporadic or lat.
&er-day iibcrslity. In fact, it is we'll
known to largo number Of persons
in Californi. that Mr. Stanford had
for years, entertained the idea Of en-
.Aowing1a college for the free instruc.
iiop Of the poor, irrespective Of creed
Of assienslity.

does not initiate anybody. When Mr.. Bate.
man engaged him at modest salary some
years ago in London, he said, Irving will

Ii that lies the chief factor of his success.

Miss Kate Castleton has denied that her
husband, Harry PHILIPPE, either struck her or
fourished pistol at her, as was reported in
the Winnipeg Times. She says that she pre-
sumes there are few married couples who
live more happily together than she and her
husband, that he is not addicted to intem-
perance, is uniformly kind, and generally
attends strictly to business, but that on the
evening in question, not during the per-
Torrance but after its close, her husband
having taken drink or two with some mem
beers of parliament, and other prominent
gentlemen, became little hilarious.
The rehearsals of the coming opera have
been fully attended at the parlors Of the
Merchants hotel, developing some of the
best talent in the city. GA Social Wreck'' is
in the mouth of everybody, anticipating its
rendition as one of the events of the year.
The elegant costumes have been ordered
and nearly completed. The new scenery is in

Torrance underway. There will be a full
dress rehearsal the week before the booked
dates, to which the members of the press will

WASHINGTON. Feb. s.. The story of a
sealskin sack. What more fitting subject for
the most wiutry month of winter. And how
few people there are in this country,the only
country which now produces seal fur, who
know anything in detail about this curious
business, which supplies the fashionable
world with that ever fashionable article.
There is a popular but a highly mistaken
notion that the fur seal is becoming rapidly
extiact. aud that the days Of sealskin sacks
are soon to be in the dim past. Perhaps the
wish is father to the thought, for the thought
is as far from correct as are about three
fourths OF the popular ideas about sealskns
and seal culture generally. 4 lengthy re-
port given TO the public as part OF the CEN
sus report, gives to the world the first ac-
curate information that it has ever had on
this subject It is curious fact that though
the fur seal has been hunted and slaughtered
indlscnmnately for a century little has been
known to tue reading or scientific world
about its habits or even its appearance. 1t
is a fact equally curious, that when our pur-
chase Of a aska was made in 1861, nothing
was known apparently Of the existence
within the limits covered by the purchase, OF
the only fur seal ''rookeries'' in the world.
And yet by the close Of the present decade,
when the lease Of the company in charge OF
them shall have expired. they will have
turned into the treasury as rental for these
''rookeries' about the amount Of money that
all Of Alaska cost Us, leaving upon the seal
rookeries ;Gsmauv and as valuable seals as
when they made the lease, and giving US our
ALASKA FREE OF COST.
The census report upon this interesting
subject was made by Mr.. II. ". Eli
oft after several trips to or seal gardens,
the Pry bilov islands, in the very heart OF
Behring's sea, He begins by saying that
these little islands, mere dots in the sea, are
the only spots in the entire northern hemi-
sphere fitted by the natural surroundings for
