To get the news one needs often to 90
away from home; for example, read the
following from the New York CONNER
c,dl AdrCrtiSCr:
"rbe rivalry between New HAMPSHIRE
and Vermont, the Rochester HCrdlU says,
is unusually strong along the banks of the
Connecticut river. The feeling on one
side is that New Hampshire is II great
State, not so large as Texas, to he sure.
but Rhode Island is smaller; not so lever
and easy to till as Illinois, it is acknowl
edged, but its scenery is considered far
grander. Across the stream one learns
that the only possible reason that can be
urged for allowing the Granite State to re-
main in the Union is that one can get a
good view of Vermont from some parts OF
it,"
Upon this the Manchester Mirror re-
marks sensibly: vermont and New
Hampshire get along very serenely to-
gether, and each appreciates the others re-
sources and beauties as well us its own,
and strangers cannot stir up strife between
the two states by any such foundationless
remarks"

The new minister to Mexico, Judge

the press but we notice that certain parts
of his record are very carefully eliminated.

A CANDID CONFESSION.
THE LEADING ISSUES,

There are three leading political
issues before the people of Alturas
county at this time. They are these:
The Mormon question, the Chinese
plague, and the threatened division of
the county.
On all three of these issues, the
Republicans and their candidates are
pronounced; the Democrats are not.
The Republicans are unit in up
holding the anti Mormon Test Oath
law. The Democrats of Ada, Cassia,
Bear Lake, Oneida and other counties
have pronounced against it and are
making a strong fight for its repeal.
On the anti Chinese question, the
Republicans are equally united. The
| chairman of the Democratic County
Central Committee of Alturas county
wv. II. Watt and other members of
the committee are still employing
| Chinese.
The Republican nominees for the
Legislature are a unit against any
partition of Alturas county. OF the
Democratic nominees, fally one-half
are directly interested in having the
county divided.
Citizens, whom will you support :?
Those who have always assisted the
Mormons, and would do so now if
they dared; or those who have always
fought themp
Those who have never employed
any Chinese, and who would drive
them out of the country; or those who
always have employed them, who still
employ them, and who don't want
them to go?
Those to whose interest it is to have
the county divided; or those to whose
interest it is not to have it divided?
The time is coming when you will
have to decide.

GEN. GEO. HI. ROBERTS.

The former home paper of Gen. Geo.
II. Roberts in Nebraska, the Harlan
County Press, says: "The many
friends of Gen. Roberts throughout
the whole Stste and particularly at
his old home in this place, will be
glad to know that our former Attor-
ney General has once more entered
the political arena, having been nom.
mated on the Republican ticket for
District Attorney of Alturas county,
Idaho, after an exciting contest on
the tenth ballot. If the General is as
popular in Idaho as he was in Harlan
county, there will! be no doubt of his
election. His qualifications for the
Office are No. l, and he shows no fear
in the line of his duty. We heartily
recommend him to the voters of his
district as one among a thousand and
gentleman whom they may be proud
to elect" AS Attorney General of Ne.
braska he had the reputation of being
fearless officer. He is brilliant
orator and was elected three times to
that position before coming to Idaho.

fectly feasible, but if they can strike the

pose. If the road should be built to Athens,
there is scarcely doubt but that if would Sc
cure the building of the road from Athens TO

No Boon that science has Conferred

Has been fraught with greater blessings than
that which has accrued to the inhabitants of
malarial ridden portions of the United STATE $
and the Tropics from the use of Hostetter S
Stomach Bitters. The experience of many
years has but too clearly, demonstrated the
inefficiencv of quinine and other drugs to ef-
fectualy combat the progress of Intermittent,
congestive and bilious and remttent tevers.
while on the other hand. it has been less
clearly shown that the use of the Bitters, a
medicine congenial to the fraiest constitution,
and derived from purely botanic sources, af-
fords reliable safeguard against ma,aral
disease, and arrest it when developed. For
disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels,
for general debility and renal inactivity, it is
also a most efficient remedy. Appetite and
sleep are improved by it, it expes rheumatic
humors from the blood. and enrches circu-
lation impoverished by characterization.

SKIPPED BY THE LIGHT OF THE Moon.
Good things are ever welcome and on
next Wednesday evening, the 3lst inst, Fow-
Ter & Mannington's company will present here
for the first time, the famous farcical comedy
Skipped by the Light of the Moon" with
the commedians Fred Lennox and Walter
Lennox, Jr., in the leading roles. This is
the piece that first started the existing rage
for funny" plays and its success in every
large city in the Union has been something
truly remarkable. The Boston Herald says
of it
'At the beginning of the performance the
ladies OF the audience, vaguely conscious Of
the prim prophecies to which they are used,
stuffed their pretty little white handkerchiefs
into their pretty little months but they soon
yielded to the inevitable, and before the sec
ond act ended they were breaking their bonnet

catch their breath between shrieks Ii was q

The Planets I'm April.

The Providence Journals planet article
for April shows that Jupiter is evening star
throughout the month. He ranks first on the
planetary record for April on account of
the brillancy of his appearance, and the
length of time he remains above the horizon,
almost from sunset to sunrise A celestial
phenomenon will be visible on the planet
Jupiter and his satellites that will
excite intense interest among Juvian
astronomers, if there be any there to
witness il. The planet Mars aud his two tiny
moons, on the 18th, will make transit across
the suns disc. Mars then, as seen from Ju
piter, will be in inferior conjunction, and at
or near one of his nodes. Therefore he will
cross that suns disk, just as Venus did in
1882, when her transit was observed on this
planet Mars is also evening star. His
proximity to Jupiter affords fine
opportunity for studying the distin-
gushing features of the two planets.
Venus is morning star She Charmingly full
fills the duties of her present role, and will
reward the early riser for the effort required
TO behold her bright face. Neptune and
Uranus. the invisible planets are in the even
ing skv. Saturn is also an evening star,
while Mercury is evening star until the Sth,
when he joins Venus in the morning sky.
