FOR CONGRESS-.

The Register in hoistin, the name Of
dubois for delegate to congress makes use
Of the following:
The reason for the silence of thu
Register has been that when the proper
time came it was our desire to suggest
to the convention the name of mat
whose nomination is equivalent to at
election, aud that-name is Mr.. Fred. l.
Dubois, aud with that name we bc!iev.
we can guarantee the convention tho
hearty aud cordial support Of every anti
Mormon democrat in the. Southeastern
if not in entire Idaho Territory. Mr.
Dubois has been resident Of Idaho Ton
six years past. and his record is one that
will bear all the investigation that may
be required. He is man from whom
we need no pledges. His past record is
IA sufficient guarantee to the people ot
idaho that his word on any question is
ali that is required.
That he will receive tho nomination
there il no doubt, and that he will BE-
elected there is less doubt; and that Ida.
ho Territory will be better represented in
congress than she has ever been there is
no question in the minds of fair. think
ing men.
Mr. Dubois may be all that is claimed
for him to South Il,ho, but that is not
saying that he will do for the North.
The North has no assurance that he will
work for annexation, which has been and
is, and will be their chief intent till it be
accomplished. We deal with principle
and not men be they ever so good.

Rich Strikes on Salmon River,

Eight years ago Messrs. Geo. Wentz
aud VIM. Davis located a claim some
twelve miles below Salmon City on Sal.
mon river, and have ever since patiently
and laboriously worked away with final
and gratifying result. The Comet, the
name Of their claim, has on it tunnel
1870 feet in length, which at depth Of
l6O feet taps vein Of free milling gold
quartz six feet and four inches 10 width,
aud assaying $50 per ton. An open cut
run into the claim from the surface of
the mountain developed vein Of ore
five feet six inches wide and of GREAT
richness. ASSAYS made from different
parts Of this surface lead show that the
ore runs from $500 to $1,000 per ton.
This vein was struck by following pieces
Of float and blind lead. which 6nally
led to the present vein with the above
result. Register.

Dubois is TO be candidate for delegate

Pride seems determined that he shall not

Don't Kiss the Dear Little Ones

1t is probable that numerous cases
occur OF infection by kissing, which
pass unnoticed. Children especially
are likely to suffer from careless and
indiscriminate OSCILLATION on the part
of tlloughtless admirers and friends.
And sometimes they are actually
forced to accept such caresses from
persons for whom they exhibit in
stinctive and unmistakable aversion.
Compulsion of that sort is always
cruel and not infrequentIy it involves
serious peril. Who has not heard
some fond mother, delighted with
the notice taken of her darling, say
to the little one, kiss the gentleman"
or "Kiss the lady," and insist upon
obedience, when it was clearly evil
dent that the little one was reluctant
and the intended recipient of the sa-
lutte, hardly less inclined 10 rebel,
restrained himself or herself from
Directing only through polite desire
to avoid wounding the maternal des-
pots feelings? Ifthe instinct of re-
volt does not exist on one side il
may be experienced ON the other,
and it is often mutual. Children are
often made to kiss each other in token
of reconciliation after a quarrel,
when neither is prepared to pui
heart into such demonstration.

From Chicago to St Paul and Min
neapolis MINI.

The Chicago, Milwaukee Il St
Paul Railway Company owns and
operates the Short Line, via Milwau-
kee, between the above named points.
The distance from Chicago to ST.
Paul is 4l0 miles; to Minneapolis
420 miles. On account of its facilities
and capacity for making fast time il
has been for years, the route selected
by the United States Government for
carrying the mail, and it is, therefore
known as "T'he Fast Mail Line"
The route, via Milwaukee, passes
through the eastern portion of North
ern Illinois. Central Wisconsin and
along the Upper Mississippi River,
OH the eastern edge Of the State Of
Minnesota.
In thc-State of Wisconsin the road
runs through beautiful lake region
and the scenery along the Upper Mis-
sissippi River, from La Crosse to ST.
Paul, compares favorably with any
thing in Europe or America.
AT the st. Paul Union Passen ger
Station connection is made with the
roads leading to Manitoba, British
Columbia, Washington, Oregon and
Montana, with the through cars TO all
the principal points in the Northwest Z.
Beside the short route above mention
ed, the Chicago. Milwaukee Il ST.
Paul Railway, with its 5000 miles of
thoroughly equipped road, affords the
traveller three other direct routes be-
tween Chicago, St. Paul and Mime
apolis, as well as direct thoroughfares
TO and from all portions Of Northern
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Da'
kota.
A reference to any good map of the
United States will show to the in.
tending traveller the sections of the
Northwest and Far West traversed
by the Chicago, Milwaukee IL st.
Paul Railway and its connections
Detailed information will he furnish

town should be literally supplied
with drinking fountains for animals,
and they should be so constructed
that even the smallest dog can drink
from them. No gift TO a people con-
fcrs a greater pleasure than foun-
tam, and that person who turns aside
stream from the field and gives a
watcring-trough 10 the roadside, or
provides a fountain at which man
and beast can drink pure water, is
truly a public bcnefactor.
Give the horse frequent opporiuni-
ty to quench thirst at times when not
too much over-heatcd, and before
eating. 10 drink freely Immediately
after eating prevents a favorable di-
gestion of food.
Provide shade. How instinctively
we seek the shadow when the sun is
pouring lis hots rays on the dry and
parching earth. If the pasture is not
provided with shade trees, in a con-
vpnient locality set four, six or eight
supports, across which place straw
or grass, and thus, in brief time
and with little labor make shade in
which animals can rest from the heat
of the sun, to the great comfort Of
themselves and benefit to their own
ers.
Remove the harness from the
horses in the hot day whenever you
desire TO give them full, free rest,
and once during the day, preferably
at night, thorough currying and
grooming will not only give rest,
but will do about as much towards
improving the animals condition as
will the oats.
Examine the harness on your work
ing team, and you will discover that
| linds, chock-reins and cruppers are
simply torturing contrivances, serv-
ing no useful purpose. Take them
all off for the convenience of your
selves and the comfort of the horses.
Keep the stable well ventilated and
free from the strong ammonia, which
is injurious to the eyes. Assist the
animals to protect themselves against
lies, feed regularly, hitch in the shade
and remember that the care which
will give comfort to the lower ami
mails will make them doubly profita-
bic to their owners, aside from the
humane bearing upon the subject.
