Of tho beautiful capital city of Idaho.
The growth of Nampa is phenomenal,

The rates of advertising arc lower than
back in the states whore printers can be
hire d for nine and ten collars per week
and thirty dollars will pay years rent.
At present rates, reading matter will
pay the publisher best, for it will bring
subcribers. A press association might
be of some benefit in the matter If hay

10 advertising.
Why could not such an association
got up a press report of its own by
which Idaho news of general import
ance could be communicated from one
10 the other upon the eve Of ones pub.
licationP The telegraph companies
would probably make special rates. 1t
would not interfere with the Associate
press, as it does not exist in Idaho. In
few years the franchise would be val
nable, and in the meantime the journals
better filed with news.
Besides all this, there would be bet
tor feeling among editors. they would
not stand of and growl ct each other

Department as "laborers." During the

found that there were only about ten men
available for cleaning the snow off the

were unequal TO the task and the Super

called for the roll, ana learning that a
large majority Of the employees classified
as 'labOrers" were engaged in clerical
and other light duties authorized the Su-
perintendent to call on all of them, who
were found physically able, to assist in
the work. The result was that about
thirty men started at work on the side
walks this morning and soon had them
clear OF snow.

providing for the appointment of an AS
sistant Secretary of the Navy. An amend
ment suggested by the Naval Committee
requires that the assistant should come

Mr.. Plumb hoped that some explanation
would be given Of the need of such an
officer and of the need or such haste in
taking up the bill at this time, it having
but recently been reported.

political turn, and 1t lasted until O'Clock.
The participants were Messrs. Hoar, But
Ter, Cameron, ingalls,, Hale, Plumb, Aaw-
ley, Beck, Allison, Van Wyck, Blackburn,

the debate was an attack upon the pres
ent head of the Navy Department by the
Republicans on account of his action in
the matter of John ROach's contracts, aud
defense by the Democratic Senators.
Finally Mr.. Cameron urged an immediate
vote on the bill, but MIR. Logan opposed

of discussion was the action of the House
of Representatives yesterday in adopting
Mr.. Bland's resolution calling ON
the Secretary of the Treasury for
information in regard to his past
and future policy on the silver ques-
ton. The prOpriety and expediency Of
disclosing the future policy of the admin
isti alton on this question was considered
at length. 1t is understood that the con-
clusion reached was that the Secretary
could best reply to that portion of the res
olutiOn by reference to the views ex-
pressed by the President in his message
to Congress and by the Secretary Of the
Treasury in his annual report on the SUBJ
ject with an explanatory statement that
their sentiments in regard to silver re-

CLAIMS OF STATES.
Mr.. Hammond Reports a Bill on the War
Tax Dispute.

WASHINGTON, Feb. AIN the House
to-day Mr.. Hammond, Of Georgia, on be-
half of the committee called up the bill to
prevent the claim Of war taxes under the
act of Aug. ., 1861, and acts amendatory
thereof by the United States, being set of
against States having claims against the
general government. MIR. Barksdale, OF
Mississippi, made an argument in favor
OF the bill, cORtending that 1t was mat
Ter Of simple justice TO the various States
OF the Union. The government. illimita-
bic in its resources, as powerful to exc
cute its promises as it was to enforce its
DEGREES, could not afford to plant
itself on the Rob Roy rule and simple
plan "tbat they shall take that have the
power, and they shall keep that can"
Mr. Hepburn, Of Iowa, attacked the bill
as proposition to relieve certain States
that had been in "rebellion" from the OBJ
legation of payment, without in any way
attempting to secure equal justice to all
Of the States by reimhursIng those which
had promptly made full payment.
Pending further discussion, the morn
ing hour expired.
