/. 0. 0. 7. Lodge Organized.

One of the very enjoyable events
that tend to bring life and zeal into a
community, was the organizing in
our midst the Independent Order Of
Odd Fellows on Tuesday, at 1:3O p.
m. Visitors from Eagle Rock and
Pocatello came in and immedi-
ately the members applying for a
charter came together and were organ
lied by Deputy Bro. Weinecke. The
afternoon was spent in preliminary
work The officers elected for the
term were as follows: n. G., Geo. A.
Robethan; V. g., Geo. G. Stull; Sec'y
VIM. Houtz; Treasurer, G. E. Hafer.
Balloting resulted in the acceptance
of seventeen applicants as follows:
Messrs. Danilson, Beane, Hopkins,
Anson, Wheeler, Vogler, Curtis, West,
Faris, Hotter, Mislen, Carbon, Shoe
maker, Stevens, and Others. At 1880
business was again resumed and con
tinued until 1870, when adjournment
was declared. The visitors and new.
" initiated candidates were then es.
corted to Hopkins Hall where one OF
the most sumptuous banquets that
has ever been spread in Blackfooi
awaited the hungry society. The
tables besides being loaded with the
delicacies of the season, were presided
over by Blackfoot's fairest sisters
and all that could be done for the
comfort of the inner man was cheer
fully bestowed. The toast of the even
ing by Bro. Cater, of Portneuf Lodge
was one of his happiest, while J. Ed
Smith of Bingham Lodge, paid :
glowing tribute to the ladies; shorte
toasts were given by V. G. Stull anC
Others. The members 1mmediatel!
reassembled at the hall and continued
the work until 2:30 a. M, when tn,
lodge was adjourned. A successful
future is assured because of the ma
terial introduced, which is the best Il
be found in this or any other com
munity.

A Nut for Somebody to Crack.

BY reference to a Summary taken
from the Insane Asylum records which
we publish elsewhere to-day. it will
be seen that it costs the Territory
seyenty-five cents per day for each
patient in the institution. This. as
we understand it, covers all expenses
necessary to the proper care of those
poor unfortunates. including salaries
of officers, attendants, food, clothing,
fuel, lights and indeed everything,
and no one will rise up and say they
are not well and tenderly cared for in
every particular. They should be and,
indisputably and unquestionably, they
are Now, what does it cost Bingham
county per day for its prisoners in
jail2 For the last quarter, the same
time for which the Asylum report is
made, the average number in Jail will
not exceed ten and accepting that
average, each one including jailer's
and guards salary, board, etc will cost
the county over $1.75 per day. In the
one case the officers and attendants
board is included in the cost per diem,
in the other the attendants board them
selves. We make no comments on this
great difference of expenses more than
to say if the county can take care OF
its prisoners at that rate the Territory
certainly can of its poor inmates
in the Asylum at 75 per day. In
this connection we do not wish to be
understood as rejecting on the econ
nomical management of our board Of
county commissioners, they have re
duced expense to the minimum allowed
by law. but we mention these facts tc
show the hardship of the law in The
case and that our taxpayers may not'

News of an appeal to the Supreme

Meyer, who is to be hanged to morrow,
has made final confession as follows:
am very sorry about the lies have told

Drager of the crime. They never knew
about this crime before, and Drager took
no hand in the killing whatever.

From Annapolis.

The weather is fine and health is good.
Crops ere looking well.
Since the alledged discovery by Mr.. Hop
kins of silver in the outskirts of our town,
nearly everybody has turned out to prospect
ing for mineral, and it is surprising how
many discoveries are being made, and how
many different kinds of mineral are being
found. I will give the names of such as
seen and examined myself, and all found in
this vicinity, too: Gold, silver, copper, lead,
iron, potters clay, of most excellent quality
and apparently of boundless quantity, and
white, red and blue in colors, each in a sep
arate localities and near town.
Annapolis is upon the point of undergoing
boom; the skies are Frightening every day
and soon she will be headquarters for vast
and varied mining enterprises.
The Farmers Alliance is booming here,
and are going to build a hall. The workmen
are employed and the material engaged. The
Alliance here numbers IS members and five
to ten unite every meeting.
We have large public school taught by
Professor Gideon, from Bonnie Terre, and
he is giving most excellent satisfaction.
Business is good for the season. Times
are lively, money plenty and everybody busy.

Ed. Register-I will pickup few of the
scattered relics of the battle of Bull Run.
It is fresh in the minds of some yet. The
battle has been fought oyer on this creek-I
should suppose, from the cannonading in
this vicinity, it must have been the battle Of
Bull Run, the way one bull run the other.
Well, boys, don't write notes that you can.
not show the old folks; 1t will make trouble.

This is leap-yepr and election year, too, so
we old farmets and boys will be bored to
death with girls and candidates. Well, girls,
don't come around the corn field hugging
the boys. Go to church; the boys will be
there all the same. As for the candidates,
we want them to stay out of the corn field;
they can leave q note at the house.
The Farmers Alliance is progressing all
right, and will base its work on the sands of
time.

hope their will be some strengthening up
