Governor StcvcmsOm'~ Protest
Against Mr.. Sparks Order.

Last Thursday His Excellcncy
Governor Stevenson, of Idaho, tele-
graphed the following protest:
To the Honorable L. q. G. Lamar Score
tary of the Interior, (carc Hon. John
HALEY, NJ. c., Washington, u. {.
The recent ruling of the Hon
Commissioners of the General Land
Office relative to the cutting Oft tim
bcrs upon the public domain by
miners and mining companies will
paralyze and destroy the entire
mining industry of Idaho. In
behalf of OF the great industries of
this Territory, most respectfully
ask that said order or ruling be
suspended, and its operation delay
ed until some action be taken by
Congress. f. a STEVENSON,
Governor of Idaho.
Commissioner Sparks in impet-
uous Juror charged the Montana
Land Improvement Co. with hav-
ing illegally usurped large guam
titles of timber from the public
domain, and made matters worse
by ordering that under no pretext
could the timber be taken from
public mineral lands. The order
was so dangerous to our great
mining industry that Secretary
Lamar has since ovcr-ruled it.

Report From Alaska.

Governor Swineford, of Alaska,
has made his first annual report to
the Secretary of the Interior. lie
saws that a careful estimate of the
population of Southern Alaska
places the number of whites at
1900, and natives 1000. He dwells
at length upon the great natural
resources of that Territory, and
severely arraigns those Government
agents who have represented the
country inclement to a degree that
precludcs cultivation or the keep
ing of domestic animals. Never,
he says, in MS home travels from
Lake Superior to the Gulf OF Mex
leo, has he seen more luXuriant
vegetation than in Southern Alaska.
The harder vegetables all grow to
maturity and TO enormous size,
and cattle are sleek and in the best
possible condition. The gold mines
on Douglas Island, opposite Juneau,
are in full operation. The deposit
is represented to be truly phcnom-
email, and the Governor says these
mines promise to figure more
largely in the mining history of
the world than any on record. The
curing and canning of cod and
salmon has assumed large proper
tons, although the business has
not yet been largely remuneratiye,
by reason of the sharp competition
of the Columbia River fisheries.

Our P0blic school.

We need new school house.
That is apparent to everyone. 1t
will be possible to struggle through
the winter without it, but it will be
a severe trial to the teachers and
the community. The roll of attend
ance has grown SO large that it is
simply impossible for it to be
accommodated in the school house
and now we find over forty pupils
in Miss Bledsoe's department,
taught in Union Church. The
church people realize the emergency
into which the school is plunged
and are kind enough to tender the
church building for the present
a large portion of ketchum
attends the various services held
there, and, we venture, feel some
interest and pride in keeping the
church building, which is common
property, in good condition. 1t
cannot long remain thus under the
present circumstances. The depart
ment under Mr.. Stackpole is equally
large and the school house likewise
crowded. The facilities are so
poor for such body of pupils that
teachers cannot be expected to
accomplish satisfactory work and
pupils cannot be expected to make
the same progress that they would
with such conveniences and COM
forts as they are entitled TO. Now,
there was 81, 1878 apportioned by
Superintendent Anderson to this
district, from the last quarters
revenue, and with a prospect
of like additions TO the school
fund from quarter to quarter,
there is no reason why we
should not have a new school
house as soon as the weather will
permit building. 1t may not be
till next summer, but the want will
never be realized as it is now and
the people and the proper author
ity should lay their plans and per
feet them while the necessity is most
apparent. Crowded school rooms
denote a multiplicity of dangers,
among which are. slow progress,
confusion, lack of interest, want of
attention, and last but not least,
poor and insufficient ventilation.

The sale of Syrup of Figs is
simply immense. Everyone is tax
ing it, and admit that it is the best
medicine ever used. Children cry
for it on account Of its pleasant
taste, and grown people who have
used it once never take anything
else. Unlike other remedies for
biliousness and constipation it
never loses its power to act, and it
always leaves the organs on which
it acts stronger than before. Besides
one feels fresh and bright and
realizes that it is Natures own true
laxative. Geo. J. Lewis is agent
for ketchum.
