STATEsMAN.-The ordinance requir-

special session of council. -. Large
shipments of apples and other fruits
daily go forward by teams to Kuna,

latter part of September. They have
several thousand cords in More's creek
not far from Dunnigan's place -. In
addition to other large fruit crops this
year the grape crop will be unusually
large. Less attention has been paid
to the culture of grapes, here tofore,
than to other fruit crops, but it hav-
ing been demonstrated that grapes

kinds of fruit, more attention will be
paid to its culture than formerly.

LEWISTON TELLER: We were shown
some specimens of silver ore from a
district of country up in the Okina-
gan country, which are claimed to be
rich in silver, assaying several hun
dred dollars to the ton. The lodges
in that vicinity are reported to be
large and some of them favorably sit
uated fo- mining, and accessible by
wagons. Some two hundred loca-
tons have been made in what is
called the Salmon river portion of
the district which extends across the
British line, and about twenty loca-
tons on this side of the divide about
five miles west of Okinagan river and
about thirty miles north OF the mouth
of the Okinagan or its junction with
the Columbia. Mr.. Alex Zacharev
who brought the samples down, was
the discoveror of one Of the ledge:
and his rock from it shows for
itself that the ore is rich. The ledge
that he located is represented a
being from seven to eight feet il
width on the surface.

up ~ oiu lIoSoioih. Hc ltcpu DiCdb
party of Boise county, we can say to
its credit, is far more liberal and
American in its methods OF nominal
ing candidates than are the Demo-
Gratis, and its primaries do not SAVIOR
SO much of the disgusting odors Of
bossism. The test in most, and we
think all, of their primaries, has
been, ''are you a Republican?"--not
"will you supper: each and every
nominee of the Republican conven-
TOM The answer, to our certain
knowledge, has been, Eyes, but +
will not pledge myself to vote
straig hit ticket, but everything else
being equal, will vote for a Repub-
lican in preference to Democrat"
The reply of the judges was, "That
is all we require" 1t is right that a
question like that shonld be asked as
test. The Democratic and Repub-
iican parties are national, as every
one knows, and citizen can stand
firmly on the principles of either
party, and be firm supporter and
advocate Of those principles, and at
the same time, without going back
on those principles, vote for candi-
date on the other side, whether for
county office, or for Delegate in Con-
gress, for Territories have no hand
i'll the shaping of national affairs.
At this day, even in national affairs,
political lines are very dimly drawn
and can scarcely be seen with the
naked eye. How ridiculous and dis
gushing does it sound, in Territory,
where only local issues can figure, for
three wise-looAing and solemn.visay-
ed owls to sit supremely at the holy
| place where the county primaries are
, held, and in tones of thunder pro-
1 pound the all-important question, on
t which the very fate of this great ma
f ton depends-"Are you a Democrat,
or Republican" as the case may be,
land will you support each and every
nominee OF our conventinn?" If the citi-
zen considers himself slave to Bossism
t he will surely answer Yes" Is it apv
t wonder that few straIgl ts-non- scratch.
e ers' do the nominating for the whole party,
y and tricksters elect pledged delegates,
, pledged to nominate the tricksters. The
majority of each party should rule in the
i mater Of making nominations and there
u IS no question that the majority would
t nominate a good ticket Judging from
the sentiments that have been expressed
ioi late by those who have had surfe is
of the ways of rotten and disgu. tingly
. dictatorial old Bossism. that antiauated
E ruler OF primaries and conventions will
S get few gentle taps on the nose. and

q. S TIMBER agent Caldwell arriv-
ed here last Wednesday to investi-
gate the unlawful staying of timber,
and to hunt up evidence against GER
tain persons guilty of criminally
starting forest fires. Any one guilty
of malciously or willfully setting fire
to timber ought to be punished with
out mercy that is to the fullest ex-
tent of the law. This class of crimi-
nails have escaped the clutches of the
law in this country, although the
practice of firing forests is not at all
uncommon in this section. We hope
Mr.. Caldwell will hunt out the Grim
inals and that they will get such a
dose of the bitter medicine made and
provided for such acts that will make
them sick, sore, and sorry that they
did it, and that the bitter dose will
forever cure them of the idiotic and
malicious desire to destroy our coun.
try's proud wealth of fine timber, and
that their punishment will be warn.
ing to all others of that same class OF
degraded criminals. Any man who
can delight in needless destruction O
that which is a benefit to all is tot
mean and degraded to be allowed t.
un at large. If Mr.. Caldwell sue
,eeds in bringing punishment on thu
guilty he will receive the gratefu
thanks of every good citizen of thi
county.

The Coming County Convention.

We publish this week the call for
our Republican County Convention.
It is called a week earlier than two
years ago, but we observe that the
other counties in the State are rather
earlier than usual with their conven-
tons, and we see no valid objection
to the time named by the committee.
There is always more or less jeal-
ousy on the part of aspirants and
their especial friends, because of the
suggestion of any names for the differ
ent offices for which candidates are
to be nominated. But we believe vi
past good conduct will be a sufficient
answer to any insinuations that we
desire to forestall the action of the
convention. We believe it is for the
best interests of the county that the
qualifications of those persons, who
are liable to be candidates for the diff
ferent offices in the gift of our county,
be discussed, and their respective and
comparative merits and dement's be
weighed by the public before conven-
ton day, especially if the names to be
then considered are not generally well
known throughout the entire length
and breadth of our county. We shall
be very happy to have our columns
used by the Republicans of Lamoille
County, not only suggesting other
candidates than those whom we may
mention, but for the purpose of
fairly discussing the qualifications of
such as may have been named by us.
So far as we have been able to gather
from conversation with leading Re-
publicans of the county the following
is perhaps a fair statement of the cur
rent opinions al to our ticket.
For Senator, we hear the names of
Hon. R. A. Savage, Judge Slayton
and A. G. Slayton, Esq, of Stowe,
mentioned. The town of EImore,
which perhaps has greater claims to
the office than any other town in the
county, inasmuch as it never had but
one Senator-and that more than a
generation ago, Hon. Geo. W. Bailey
has usually presented the name of
Hon. Chas. S. Parker. We doubt if
his name will be presented this year;
not because Mr.. Parker is not a very
worthy man, but because his sympa-
thies are rather in favor Of the st.
John party, of which he was perhaps
the leading exponent in this county
