Joseph smith.

The Opera house last evening held
a large, attentive and well-be-haved
audience, during the interesting lee
ture, or sermon, of President Joseph
Smith, son of Joseph the elder, who
was numbered among the early Nor
mon martyrs.
President Smith is a well-preserved
man; his full and flowing gray beard
tell of the years he has devoted to the
cause for which bis father commended,
and which he claimed to have received,
us direct revelation, from the God
of all the people of the earth. Mr..
Smith speaks forcibly, perhaps too ra-
pidly at times; is earnest in manner
and impresses the listener with the
idea that he believes what he advoca-
ties, and therefore wins and holds both
respect and sympathy.
The burden OF his address was to
show the illegality and sin of polyg-
amy. He made no efforts to bang
books, toss his arms and hands in the
air, or howl; but forcibly and earnest
" stated his propositions, cited the
"Book of Mormon" the Covenants"
the "Confession of Faith" and kindred
books, and clearly proved, from these
orthodox Mormon authorities, that
God never did aud does not now, coun-
tenance the habits of one man having
more than one wife and uice rersa
The speaker drew strong and vivid
pictures of life i'll polygamous house
holds, and illustrated the 'sstraying
from the law of God" by the people
in striking way, when he told of a
Salt Lake woman, now alive, who had
been sealed" to ten men, and ''Bea
yer" woman who has had thirteen
husbands, one of whom she 9'paid to
her bishop as tithing."
The gentleman was listened to with
great interest by the large number of
persons present, four-ffths of whom
were Mormons, and closed an intelli-
gent discourse with the announcement
that tonight and tomorrow night, he
will continue the subject, in the Opera
House, beginning at 1880 o'clock. -

The Legislature of Vermont has
rejected valued policy" bill. In
New Hampshire similar act has been
in effect more than year, and it is
admitted by SO pronounced an oppo.
nent Of such legislation as the New
York Post that none Of the evil ef.
fects predicted of it have as yet been
realized. Some inconvenience has
resulted from the withdrawal Of out
side Insurance companies from the
State, but there is reason to believe
that year or two more of competi
ton in the business will convince un-
derwriters that it is foolish to abstain
from field where good risks can be
taken, simply because they cannot
collect premiums on greater amounts
than they are willing to pay in case
Of loss.-lOregonian.
Why should insurance companies
be allowed to collect premiums on a
larger amount than they are willing
to pay, in case of fire, or other casu-
| atty: If a man insures for $1,000
aud pays the annual premiums and is
burned out, he should collect the full
amount for which he was insured.
IL he insures on the life of his wife
for $4,000 and pays the full premi-
um and she dies, he RECEIVERS the
amount for which she was insured.
There Is no board of adjustment up
on the value of her life. Why should
there be in the case of a building in
sured for $4,000. We understand
that an effort is to he made this win
ter to permit insurance companies in
Idaho to collect premiums on a great.
er amount than insurance companies
are compelled to pay in case the los
property can be shown to be less thar
the amount for which it was insured
aud on which the premiums have beer
paid. The Legislature at the las
session did the wise thing IN enact
ing the present law, and it should no
be changed to CRAFTY the greed of in
surance companies. = Lewiston Tell

One law that Idaho needs, and
needs badly, to insure pure elections,
or at any rate to eliminate one of the
elements of fraudulency in elections
that frequently defeats the will of the
majority Of the legal voters. A reg
istry law is what we have reference
to, and the legal voters of the Terri
tory urgently demand the re-enact-
ment of this law that was wiped out
Of existence by the ruthless hand OF
the unwise Legislative body that was
gathered together two years ago ''for
better or for worse"-and which prov
ed for worse-and it was killed with
out just cause or proyocation, and af-
ter it had rendered valuable service
/ in the good cause of fair and square
and pure elections. The Legislature
tour years ago did good work il
bringing the registry law into exis
tence, and the following session die
very bad work, for which it has beer
very severely censured, in wlping i
out of existence. The present ses
sion will, we believe, knowing tn,
wishes of their constituents, re-enac
this much-needed law.

Boise County Gold Mines.

En-. WORLD: We often read of
old mining camps being brought to
the front by some energetic or care.
full and experienced miners; but no
where is it more fully illustrated than
III Gambrinus District. Not since
1870 or Whereabouts has there been
SO much activity in the mines as at
the present time, and at no time has
work been carried on in so many diff
ferent mines, and every one paving
It's owners. Up to the present time
there has been gold to the amount of
two and one-half million dollars, as
near as can be ascertained, taken
from quartz mines within a range Of
three miles square, and singular as it
may seem to mining men, none of
the mines have been tested in down
ward course more than one hundred
and fifty feet, except the Sub Rosa,
| (which we believe was worked to the
depth of about two hundred feetl for
the last ten years. The sound of the
miners pick and drill could but very
seldom be heard nothing to break
the awful silence of the wooded hills
but the lonely butcher boy and his
obedient but sad-faced cayuse, as
they wound their way to the Forest
King mine with sweet little morse,
of beef for the happy miners who live
away up there Oh the mountain side
This season he has visited all the
camps twice week, with large de
livery wagon, loaded down, and re
turned to town with a contented ali
and his pockets filled with cash, ant
the people of Gambrinus District con
slider themselves under no small obi
cations to Mr.. Louis Garrecht for tn
many packages brought to us, and TO
carefully and cheerfully carrying GU
mail.
,, The claims now being worked ar
Cunningham's, Libby's, Fox & Hoo
tons, French's, Vaughn & Co.'S, an
Munroe & Co.'S; also the Forest Kin

miners had much to do in bringln
about good times up here, larg
/. share Of the credit is due to the mel

THE valued policy" law enacted
two years ago holds insurance COM
panles to an agreement-slmplv that
and nothing more. If property is in
sured for $1,000, say, in case of de.
struction of the property, the insur-
ance company must hand over 81 900.
The insurer has paid on a policy to
that amount, and is entitled to that
amount in case of loss. Insurance
companies don't like the law. They
don't like it because it holds them to
what they agree to DO. They with
drew from the Idaho field two wears
ago, after the enactment of the law.
They withdrew, hoping by so dong
to scare property holders into asking
for the repeal of the law. When
they find the law is on the statute to
stay, they will return, and be very
eager to insure Idaho property. They,
of course, will make an effort to have
the way again opened for swindling.
We cannot see why insurance COM
panies should be given an opportunity
to get out of paying the amount they
agree to pay. The insurer pays on
the full amount of the policy, and
why not hold the insurance companies
to the strict line of honesty the same
as the insurer? The insurance com.
panies say, in effect: "lf all oppor-
tunity for swindling the insurer is
barred, we will give Idaho the go-by.n
We say, let EN- go. They may 90,
but they will return. As soon as they
find that their tactics will fail to effect
the repeal, they will return.

JAS. IRWIN came down from Ban
ner few days ago. He says the Ban
ner mine is turning out fine ore in
the lower level, both east and west of
the shaft. The new strike in the
W olverine mine is now looming I'D
with increased lustre of the shining
metal. Some Of the ore that is now
coming from this mine equals in rich
ness the best the Banner has ever
turned out. May she continue to
yield high grade, and her glory ne'er
more fade, are our best wishes for
the once famous Wolverine that ap-
parently 'petered" several years ago
and was relegated to the rear and not
much thought of, but is now facing
to the front and rushing smilinely
ahead to take place in the front rank
of the best-paying silver producers of
Idaho.

TnE last session of the legislature
provided for commission to revise
the statutes OF the Territory and sit
during the vacation. The commission
consisting Of r. Il. johnson, John S.
Gray and Judge Beatty. The simple
names of the commission is sufficient
guaranty that the work will be we'll
done as able lawyers should do it;
but there is danger when their report
comes up for adoption. A legislative
assembly will always contain more or
less members who will either want
some act framed t. fit some particular
case which they have on hand, or to
be able when they get home TO their
constituents to point out some act
amended on their motion, which their
eagle eyes had discovered as errron-
eous, and thereby destroying the
sense and disarranging what would
otherwise have been good work If
/ left as it came from the hands of tie
commission. There ought to be some
protection against that class of mem
bers. and we would suggest that when
the report comes up for action that
the president of the council and the
speaker of the House be supplied
each, at the expense of the Territory,
with good repeating rife, with in
structions to fire on every fellow who
attempts to move an amendment,
otherwise the whole work will be
mutilated with amendments. The
remedy may appear severe but moth
ing short will save the revision, and
the loss would be light to the Terri
tory Cassia County Times.
