Down in Southern Idaho the
newspapers are waging vigoro :
war against Senator Dolph's bill to
annex Northern Idaho to the pro-
posed State of Washington. The
sentiment here in favor Of annexa-
ton is less unanimous than formerly
on account of the woman suffrage
law, the Sunday law and restrict
i've liquor legislation enacted by
the last Legislature Of Washington
Territory. There is, in fact, a
decided anti-annexation party in
our midst, and so far as We can
learn, they will inaugurate a policy
of aggressive hostility against our
annexation if the measure is seri-
ously pushed.--Nez Perez News.

With a magnificent number OF
more than twice the usual amount
of letterpress and engravings, the
West Shore closes the volume fol-
1885, the eleventh of its seriers.
The December number is chiefly
devoted to illustrating and desrcib-
ing the great Canadian Pacific
Railway and the country through
which it passes, especially the
Pacific Coast Province Of British
Columbia. Tie volume for 1856
will begin with a magnificent num-
Der on the city of Portland filled
with new and artistic engravings,
and accompanied by a..large sup
plement in colors. The West
Shore has no counterpart in the
United States, and in its own pecu-
liar field has never had a rival
worthy of the name.

"The grammar of all art is draw
ing" is a truth expressed in "The
Home Artist" Of Chicago, which we
wish every one who wants to be an
artist would let sink deep into the
memory. The flower painting and
such work on which so many
ladies waste their time is not art
unless it is based on knowledge
of drawing. As an encouragement
to the study Of drawing, the writer
says: "The art faculties are not
impaired by time. Some of the
greatest artists learned correct
drawing after middle life. The
mother whose hand has modelled
the garments for her family, and
whose eyes has been trained to the
harmony of colors and effects in
arranging the dresses of her daught-
ers and the furnishing of her
room, has been, unwittinsly, receiv-
ing more or less of art education,
according to her natural capacity
in that direction; and the latent art
hunger OLA lifetime impels her to
rapid strides when she has an
opportunity to crafty it to any
extent"

WASHINGTON, December The
War Department has recently
received such reports from its Off
cials in Utah regarding the very
unsettled condition of affairs in
that Territory, growing out of the
enforcement of the law against
polygamy, as to cause some uneas-
mess, but no alarm. The recent
shooting of a Mormon by United
States Marshal created a great
deal of excitement among the Nor
mons, and some apprehension was
felt at Salt Lake that there would
be an uprising among them. A
battery of artillery was recently
ordered from Omaha to Fort Doug
las, situated few miles from Salt
Lake City. In the event of an out.
break in Utah, all the troops in
the Department Of the Platte, con-
sisting of about 5000 men, could
be concentrated at Fort Douglas in
very few hours. No serious
trouble is, however, apprehcnded
by army ailicials.

In the case Of +. Bartsch VS.. Geo.
Montgomery the jury returned a
verdict in favor of defendant. This
explodes Geo. Biles' efforts to
recover his one-eighth interest in
the Parker, st. Louis, Montgomery
and Buckhorn claims, alleged to
have been decided to Geo. Mont
gomery in trust in 1888. The
decision Of the case embraces the
statement that this deed was a
clear conveyance from Biles to
Montgomery of all said interests
for value received. Biles, it will
be remembered, was AT that time in
trouble, being confined in jail on a
criminal charge. He therefore
loses the claimed interest in those
claims.

VIEWS OF TIE POWERS.
1t may be said in brief that the
attitude of the leading powers re-
mains Substantially unchanged since
the monetary conference Of 1881
nor is it to be questioned that the
views of these Governments are i'm
each instance separated by the
weight of public opinion. The
steps thus taken have therefore only
more fully demonstrated the use
lessness of further attcmps at pres
ent TO arrive at any agreement on
the subject with other nations. In
the meantime we are accommodating
silver coin, based upon our own
peculiar ratio, to such an extent
and assuming so heavy a burden
to be provided for in any Internal
ional negotiations as will render us
an undesirable party to any future
monetary conference of nations.
We have now on hand all the
silver dollars necessary to supply
the present need of the people and
TO satisfy those who from senti-
ment wish to see them in circula-
ton, and if their coinage is sus-
pended, they can be readily obtained
by those who desire them. If the
need of more is at any time appar-

COINAGE MAY BE RESUMED.
That the disaster has not already
overtaken us furnishes no proof
that danger does not wait upon a
continuation OF the present silver
coinage. We have been saved by
the most careful management and
unusual expedients, by a combi-
nation of fortunate conditions and
by confident expectation that the
commerce of the Government in
regard TO silver coinage would be
speedily changed by the action Of
Congess. Prosperity hesitates
upon our Threshold because of
the dangers surrounding this ques-
ton. Capital timidly shrinks from
trade and investors are unwilling
to take the chance Of the question

will be returned to them while
enterprise haults at the risk against

fellow citizens especially entitled to
the careful consideration Of those
charged with The duties of legista

strongly for safe and stable cur
rency as the vast army of unem-
ployed. | recommend the sus-
pension OF the compulsory coinage
