 The convention then proceeded to an eighth ballot. Mr. Henderson of iowa created sensation by ris- ing in his seat and withdrawing tho name of Senator Allison. Mr. Hen derson spoke briefly and to the point. He said that he thanked the friends of Senator Allison for their support and with his authority withdrew his name. It at once be- came Iumored that the Allison strength would go to Harrison and not to Sherman, as the Sherman people were claiming in the morn ing. The assurances which were received soon after the withdrawal of Allison that his vote would go to Harrison took the last hope from the friends of Sherman, and Senator Quay, finding tLat the game was up told his friends to fall in hne, and soon it became known that New York would not now that hls nomi- nation was in sight desert Harrison. There was no longer any doubt of the result, and the calling of the roll became mere forma!lty. liar rison was nominated after the Ten nessee vote had been cast, giving him 43I votes. Only a single vote stood by Sherman-Pennsylvania- and after that state's vote the Har- rison movement became dead cer- tainty. The ballot resulted as tol- lows.

We were introduced yesterday to a
Mr.. Miller Of South Idaho, wis, as we
have been informed, was once promi-
ncnt lawyer in South Idaho. In short
conversation with him he Informed US
thar he once wrote an article against us
respecting our annexation sympathies
We told him that it never hurt us, that
VIC never saw it or heard of it, and We
concluded that it never created much Of
a sensation else we should have heard of
it. He says he is going to visit Mr.. J.
IL. Robinson, of Camas Prairie, whose
acquaintance he enjoyed in the tif,ies.
We told him We had known Mr.. Robin
son since 1864, aud that he was high
ly respected and well to do man on
Camas Prairie. Mr.. Miller said he loon
expected he should become citizen Of
North Idaho, and We had no doubt bu,
he would soon become an annexationist,
and that our columns would be open 10

The object of getting annexed to
Washington Territory before it becomes
state il to have voice in the constitu-
tioaa! convention. We have bright legal
minds in the paa-handle of Idaho, who
would be u credit to the convention, and
whose experience would enable them to
frame state constitution that would be
credit to the people and an honor to
the Union. The talk of waiting until
Washington becomes state is not preg-
naut with good Judgment. II VIC want
to 20 TO Washington at all, we shoald
80 there as soon as possible in order to
derive the full benefit Of the step.
Every indication Of legislation points to
the early admission Of Washington as a
state, aud there is no good ground on
which to delay the demand for anuexa-
tion..-CoeW dAlene Sun.

NOT FcILGD BY THE SPOILERS.

To Idaho county the spoilers traeuced
and lied about postmaster Beck, because
he made atii lavit to the fact that petit
ton for annexation, signed by one hund-
red and fifty residents of Gsanseville and
vicinity, had been stolen from his pest
Office, aroused the citizens of that vicinity
and they determined to rc-ciraulatc other
copies Of the same petition for signatures.
Tuesday evening We received the names
IF one hundred and seventy nine persons
attached to the new copies. ..Wu scanned
the petition and find that the signatures
are genuine and the names comprise
many of the most substantial men on
Camas Prairie in the Grangeville pre-
cinct; whether the same names were at
tached to the stolen petition or not We do
not know, but have reason to suppose
that some Of them were, for one hundred
and fifty and one hundred aud seventy
nine would make larger number than
reside in that vicinity. All honor is due
to the man or men who have so s,gnally
rcbuked the thieves and spoilers who
stole the other petition. The Free Press
says the first stolen petition to his own
knowledge, contained only about sixty
names. Query: How does he know
unless he was privy to the stealing ?
However that may be, we know that the
return Of Tuesday evening contains one
hundred aud seventy niue names OF per
sons resident in that vicinity, and hence
we give iull credi, to Mr.. Beck's aft.
davit to the number he said were at
ta,hcd to the stolen petition. Some one
suggested that it was possible that the
parties engaged in the stealing might
have cut off the names and attached
them to q petition against annexation
We confess that the same spirit which
would induce parties to suppress the
names from the annexation document,
would prompt them to do the other.
But it sent to Washington we have
parties there who will see to that The
citizens Of Idaho may rest assured that
they shall not be bslicd at Washington
BY the spoilers il we can preventive

should have a nan there to detect any
fraud of.that kind that may have been
Or that may hereafter be attempted upon

The total assessed wealth Of Montana
Tor the present year is S59,45O, $50; of
Washington it is S6l, 100000, and of
Idaho S20,000,O00. In looking over
these figures it will easily be seen that
Idaho is very far behind in wealth to
its sister territories, and all talk of state
hood in the immediate future is simply
nonsense, for no state government can
be supported with credit short OF S75,.
100000 Of assessable property. The
increase during the past year in Mon
tana, a very prosperous year, has been
$4,473,7l2. Taking this as basis, it
would take Idaho fifteen years more to
reach property valuation emitting it to
demand statehood. But Idaho, with all
her boosted growth, has not increased
her wealth S3,000,o0O year, taking
Gov. Stevenson's report as a guide.
This would throw US still farther behind,
aud withhold statehood from us for fully
twenty years. DO our people want to
live in territory that much longer and
be denied voice in the national halls OF
legislation to protect their interests p

Gov. A. p. Swineford, of Alaska, who
is credited with being the hero, "Col
Ralph Winston" OF Miss Clevelands
queen novel, "Sec-Saw," lett yesterday
for Washington per instructions from
Secretary Lamar. He was accompanied
by his wife, who also playsa prominent
part in the story. Gov. Swineiord will
try and make it plain to congress why
the land laws, now enjoyed by the other
states and territories, should be extended
to Alaska. lie thinks by this means the
comparatively unsettled territory will be
gradually populated. He wants to see
Alaska represented in congress by q
delegate, and thinks the necessary lesis-
lation can be secured in no other way.
Indeed, this has been the burden of his
reports since he became governor. -

EnIToR TELLER:

note, with no small degree Of pleas

incnce 10 the Occur d'Alene country,
who are not afraid to speak their minds
concerning the important question of
annexation. / refer, at this time, more
particularly to the speech of Hon. ". I
S,oll, delivered at Bnyard Idaho, upon
the completion Of the railroad to that
thriving and important mining camp.
had the pleasure of visitiog the several
points in tho Occur d'Alenercountry
during last summer and fall and met
many prominent gentlemen, and talked
with them concerning annexation. Had
the friends of annexation organized and
loptod propcrzplans looking to an open
and free discussion of the subject, pub
licly, hundreds of signatures would have
been added to petitions praying for an
nexa.ion to Washington.
l found that local option Gas though
it would have any following in the min.
ing country had been mentioned as one
objection to being annexed to Washing
ton. Annexation to Montana is desired
by many in that section, and such as are
opposed to our going to Washington,
while knowing that the Montana move
could never succeed. kept that idea in
the minds Of many.
Now We come to e--underlying spirit
of this anti. annexation movement in the
Occur d'Alcuc. Mr.. Stoll touched upon
the subject when he referred to candi-
dates for Office. 1t is wcll..known that
certain member Of the last legislature
from the North, is very DESTROYS of re-
ceigiug the nomination as delegate to
congress from the Democratic Territorial
Convention this year, and in hopes that
he may obtain following in the South,
is willing to play traitor to the very best
interests Of the North by working a. AGAINST
annexation. The South is Represented
in the Occur d'Alencs. Parties whose
every interest is in the South, in the
way of ranches and stock, have worked
with our enemies Of the North, to secure
signatures to antiannexation petitions
Said parties have stated, in my hearing
that nothing other than purely persona
interests prompted them to work against
annexation; that the South needed thu
North, from financial stand point, ii
the way Of taxes. AT the same tins
said parties acknowledged that Socially
commercially and geographically, we o
the North are entitled to 60 to Washing
ton. They are willing to sacrifice oul
interests for personal gain. Let thu
traitors be branded noio and when they
apply for our votes let them be punished
While we can, in measure, excuse
those from the South who oppose us, in
as1nuch as it may effect their interests
we can find no excuse for residents O
the North, who use our best interests a
a purchase price to further personal poll
cal gain. New STATE.
