The Vaccine May be Slow but Sure
and Deep.

The very few annexationists found in
Northern idaho will undoubtedly require
to get vaccinated. Strange theories have
vi lated their blood and created boils.-
Wardner Ne,cs.
The conductors Of the Ne,cs can have
but limited knowledge of any thing
outside Of Wardner, else they would
not indulge in such assertions as the
above. 1t seems TO be the mouth piece
of the men who last fall were for bringing
all North Idaho, or the mining portion
of it to Montana, and prompted Delegate
Toole to urge the mat or in congress, till
he disco yered that neither Montana nor
North Idaho, as people, wanted any
such change, and then he gave it up as
forlorn hope. Bat tie Ne.cs man
would s'ill harp upon my daughter, and
remain so blind to the rest Of North
Idaho, that they knew not what is taking
place in other parts OF North Idaho, who
consider that there are other interests of
North Idaho to be fostercd than the out
come of the Sullivan mine. We have
the petitions of upwards of one hundred
of the business men of Wardner, asking
to 60 to Washington, and hun
dreds of others from other portions Of
Shoshoue county, asking for the same
change. The great bulk of Nez Perce
county have recently signed these peti
tons and nearly all the agricultural por-
ton of idaho county have petitioned for
the same change, and more petitions are
coming in and being forwarded to Wash
ington. The vaccine matter, Of the an,
nexationists, is working well aud emo
boil yet. y

Parker Of the Free Press says that
he is ready to discuss with anyone the
reasons against annexation, and wants
dispu .ants, aud yet wants Leland to talk
less about annexation SO that we might
have more influence with the people.
He seems to be much concerned about
our waning influence. We have made
our arguments in favor Of annexation
and the people understand them and
genarally adopt them, and we do not
propose to repeat them fer Mr.. Parkers
special benefit. We have yet to see that
he has ever made one argument against
that has moved the people or convinced
them that they are not right in seeking
statehood through and with Washington
Territory.

Dubois is In q Strait for Help.

In the canvass made by Dubois in
1886, for delegate iu congress, he made
a speech 10 Lewiston, a copy Of which
he sent to the TELLER, in his own hand
writing, and we have that copy to day.
His speech we published in the TELLER
of Oct. q, 1886. From this speech we
quote the following:
"The Mormon question is the all
absorbing topic with the people of South
Idaho, and that is the question upon
which they will vote. 1t is a question
with us for existence. There is not an
honest man in South Idaho who would
pledge himself to work for anne xation
before this question is settled and there
il not an honest man in South Idaho
who will oppose annexation if the Nor
mon question were settled.
See his appeal in the lnter-ldaho.
This Mormon question is now settled so
far as Idaho is concerned, by the laws of
congress aud the laws of this territory
and the Mormon vioators of the law are
being punished as fast as caught, aud
those not caught are in hiding. Why
then do you seek to stir up your constit.
uents to further oppose our annexation?
You must have little faith in their
honesty, W HON you BOW seek to move
in opposition to the will Of the North, by
writing letters to senators and members
We don't wonder that you say that you
have hard battle to fight and appeal to
the Inter idaho Tor help. 1t was said
of one in early bible times that he
found it hard to "kick against the
pricks' of truth. IF you succeed in
your appeals for help to defeat the
success of just cause, for deceived
people, you will have to do it quick or
you will surely be showed under. He
has bitten off more than he can chew.

Il Would Not If Could and Could
Not Would"

The Inter Idaho, of Dec. 81, pub
lishcd letter from Delegate Dubois as
follows:
81 have favor to ask of you. am
utterly and bitterly opposed to any divis-
ion OF Idaho, and have hard fight on
my hands and a strong combination to
fight against, viz: Stewart aud Oregon
senators, aud Voorhees,, father and son.
If you will urge any senator, or member
whom you may know, to let Idaho alone,
| will esteem it great favor, not ouly to
myself, but to my constituents. You
can properly do this on account of your
interests in Idaho.
Yours very truly,
FRED L, DUBOIS.
The above is quoted from that letter
as we find it in the Moscow Star.
While he was canvassing for the votes Of
the people of these Northern counties, he
frankly told US that he personally was
opposed to our going to Washington,
but that while he could do nothing Of
ficially for us. if he was elected, he would
do nothing against us upon this question.
He would fairly represent our wishes.
Upon the faith many republicans placed
in such statements made by him, he re
ceived their votes enough to give him
his election, aud he is now delegate BY
reason of these votes They were hi,
constituents in the North, and now he
calls upon his friends in the South to
"urge any senator or member whom
they may know, to let Idaho alone and
he will esteem it great favor, not only
to himself, but to his constituents. We
suppose that the 500 republicans, Of the
North, who voted for him, and who were
then annexationists and are now, he does
not regard his constituents. We never
thought Dubois would so soon throw of
and repudia,e the friends who gave him
his election. He certainly knows that
they will not esteem it favor to them.

THE United States supreme court,
through Chief Justice Fuller, has rem
dered an opinion of unusual interest to
holders oflife insurance policies. Thorn
as l.. Hume, of the District of Columbia,
died in 1881 totally insolvent, but leav-
ing $4,000 in life insurance policies.
The policies were by their terms paya-
BILE to either the widow or children of
the deceased. The administrators and
creditors of Hume's estate sought to
force application of the proceeds of the
policies to the payment of the debts due
the creditors, on the ground that the
premiums paid by Hume were fraudu-
lent. transfer of an insolvent estate, and
void as against creditors, and that con-
sequently the proceeds of the policies
should inure to the benefit of Hume's
estate, and not to the beneficiaries
named in the policies. The supreme
court holds that the beneficiaries are
entitled to the proceeds of all the poll
cies without any deduction whatever on
account of premiums paid, holding that
husband and father has full right to
insure his life IN the interest of his wife
and children, and that where such pol
icies are effected In the name of The
beneficiaries thew are no part Of the es-
tate OF deceased insolvent, and, there
fore, cannot be regarded as fraudulent
assignment of any part of bis estate when
SO effected.

In This age of push and worry, the
business man and the professional man
are alike unable to devote any adequate
time to exercise. In the daily round of
toll and pleasure, no suitable provision
is made for that important function, and
the result is that men OF sedentary hab-
its become subject to many forms of all
ments arising from a torpid or sluggish
liver. Constipation, sick headache, bill
iousness and dyspepsia are all to the i'm
proper action of the liver. DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets cure these
troubles by restoring the liver to its nor

THE tariff reformers who think that
the protection issue had nothing to do
with the result of the election should
look at the vote on Congressman. Not
only was the complexion of the House
changed but the protection Congressman
were elected by larger majorities, and
the free-trade Democrats who succeeded
in pulling through did so ut the expense
of good deal of nervousness as they
noticed the returns come in and saw
their vote falling of. Speaker Carlisle,

barely pulled through.

The Knights of Labor are holding
their general assembly meeting at In
dIanapolis. Two years ago at Richmond
10000 Knights were reported in good
standing. \ year later at the Minneap-
oils convention the records showed a to-
tai membership of about half a million,
or loss of quarter million in twelve
months. Those who profess to know
say that the falling off this year has been
even greater than last, and claim that
there are not to-day more than 10000
paying members upon the books. If
this proves correct they argue that it
will take but another year to wipe the
order out of existence. or at least to re-
duce it to a mere nothing. This is not
likely to happen, however, if the order
succeeds in wedding out the professional
agitators who have been makinga living
out of the organization. Powderly should
be unanimously reelected, and trife
more good sense put INTO the work, and
the order NAV be preserved for more
good i'll the future.
