STATESMAN: Boise City's electric
light company will very soon be an
accomplished fact. 1t is not every
town with the population of Boise
that can afford such modern conven-
fences. Cities of double our popula-
ton do not frequently show an equal
spirit of enterprise. 1t is possible
that some may say that the electric
light system cannot be sustained. But
the men who are putting in the cleo
trlc light, are of the same character.
and to certain extent are the same
men who have been the prime movers
III every enterprise of moment, which
has embellished our beautiful city.
They have believed in being ahead
OF instead of being behind the times.
aud against adverse circumstances
with no advantage save a conscious
ness of the intrinsic worth of the CITY.
and the vast and varied resources
backing it up, have fought for and OBJ
tanned school facilities which would
be a credit to anv community. no
matter how large nor opulent, built
bridges and good roads, excavated
lrrigatlng canals, erected fine brick
stores and residences, and kept our
city as the head and front of Idaho
clviIlzation-and they know what
they are doing. In their latest VEN
ture they have shown a level headed
knowledge of business principles.
They have already contracted a suffi-
clent number of lights to guarantee
good interests on the money invested.
Contracts have been entered into be-
tween the business men of the CITY
and the company which assures them
OF sufficient support to warrant the
outlay. This leaves out of the cal
culatIon all consideration of increas-
ed value of the works certain to &C.
crue from the future increased pros
perity and growth of the city. Sue
cess for the present is assured and
upon this basis they have figured. As
our city improves the value of the
works will naturally increase. This
enterprise will be one not only fraught
with great benefit and convenience to
the people of Boise City, but
will well repay those who expend
their money in its inception.

David Kerr in Harper's.
Spurious, isn't it, that we should
all meet in this way, all three going
to different places, and all three be-
longing to different countries?n
1t was curious, undoubtedly. The
three hungry guests who were doing
full justice to the good cheer Of the
Black Lion were Londoner on his
summer holiday, Scotchman from
the mouth of the Clyde, and an Ameri-
can tourist from New England, taking
hasty run to Europe and back. They
had encountered one another in front
Of snug little wayside inn, at
point where several roads met, and
had agreed to dine together IN honor
of the coincidence.
The dinner had lasted a good while.
for all three had walked far that
morning. But nothing can last for
ever, except lawsuit or a serial
which is paid by the sheet, and at
length our heroes showed signs of
having had enough.
"Well," " said the American, casting
a glance through the window at the
westerlng sun, Il don't know how YOU
feel, gentleman, but it seems to me
that it's just about time to be starting
again.
"And before we 60" suggested the
Englishman, ''let's tess up for who

"Aweel," remarked the cannv Scot.

JAMES CURLEY, one of the owners
of the Forest KING mine, had his leg
quite badly bruised last week while
at work in the mine. He was working
by an ore chute when a rock came
down striking him on the leg below
the knee. 1t will probably be week
or two before he will be able to do
any work.

Naughn's boy ond cautioned him not

INTER IDAHO: At the Lone Star
mine, about IL O'Clock yesterday, Jim
McGonigle was caved on and it took
the miners of the Tip Top, Donovan
and other adjoining properties until
2 o'clock this morning to dig him out,
Fortunately, the timbers in the tun-
mel saved his life and only one foot
was caught by the falling rock. The
Lone Star is about one mile east from
the Donovan group of mines and was
being worked by lease at the hands
of McGonigle and Cass. Captain
Edie and Dan Tohill were of the res
cuing party and from them we get
the news. Fourteen hours is long
time to lay imprisoned in the bowels
of the earth with creeking timbers
all about one.
SrArRsEAN: Hurrah! Hurrah for
the test-oath and Dubois. Down
with the Mormons and up with the
Stars. Dubois majorities: Bingham
comfy, 325; Bear Lake, 26; Oneida,
125; Washington, so; Boise As;
Owyhee, So; Alturas, 800; Lemhi, so;
Custer, 80. Total, 1,006,
Hailey's majorities: Ada county,
16S; Cassia, so; in the four northern
counties, 800. Total, SIS. Majority
for Dubois, 49S.
These figures will be somewhat
changed in the official count but the re-
suit will be the same. c. c. Steven
son, rep, was elected governor of
Nevada on the End. He Is brother
of the democratic governor of Idaho.
