OUR COMING STATE BOOM.

The date for holding the State Boom
Convention" is but three days of. The
aggregation Of representative citizens from
every part of the State who will be pres
ent bids fair to be something remarkable.
This is as it should be, yet simply getting
here is but the initial step IN the great
work to be undertaken. After the Con
vention is formally opened definite plans
for making progress in the movement
should be in readiness. The FairmCnt
Mder in this connection ~pertinently re-
marks
We only fear that on account Of the alb
sence of any definite plans, too many dele
gates will necessarily go there empty
handed.
That is more than likely, because most
Of us are in the habit of letting others do
our thinking. In this case We hope to see
q new departure. Let every delegate
think for himself and consider in what
wsy he can promote the advancement OF
the work. There Will be many minus, 10
be sure, and ideas advanced will vary cor
respOndingly, but ali will have the main
object Il view, aud will be prepared to give
and take, recede and advance from n
thought to another. 1t may be some OF
the delegates have already well matured
plans; if they have 50 much the better for
expsditing the work. These plans, if DEEM
ed prudent, can be changed, altered, added
to, or contracted to suit any well digested
scheme that may be determined upon.
But in any event We hope that members Of
the convention already selected in the in
terror of the State have been carefully con-
sideriDg what they can do to helpth great
work to a successful and happy issue.

PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS.

Our little city looks far better than it
did a year ago, and if indications count for
anything, Bellaire will yea more OF the
metropolitan appearance before the srm-
mer is past. Already there is talk Of more
street paving. The excellent condition Of
Union and Belmont streets since they were
improved has shown our people that the
work should have been done sooner than it
was. Until Noble and Guernsey streets
and the cross streets are paved we cannot
hope To have folly shown the beauty Of
paved streets. Il is understood that the
residents on Guernsey street will ak
COUNSEL to allow tar to be put over the brick
when that street IS improved. There is
hardly any doubt bat that tar will sdd
several years to the wearing capacity of

THE THEATER.

The Kendall Novelty Company was the
only attraction at the Elysian Thester last
week. The boys sre to be congratulated,
as the minstrels were rs good as some Of
the more ~pretentious companies that strike
The town. The Wheeling gentlemen who
took part in the performances did very
we'll. The "Uncle Toms Cabin" troupe
which played in hard luck in these parts,
and which '.lsyed over" here to recuper-
ate, has managed to get cut Of town. One
thing the company needed worse than
anything else was actors. The manage
ment of the Elysisn has booked several
fine attractions for the near future. Fred
erick Bryton will be here on Wednesday
evening in Forgiven" Hearne's Hearts
of Oak is booked for March %; Gorton's
Miastrels will be with US on the 5th, and

ton with the above excellent companies
we might state that all of them appear
here before they go to Wheeling.

Hon. JAMES H. HAwLEy, accom-
panied at times by Hon. John NJ
Burke, Alex. Mathew, Harry Carter
and J. W. Reed, has been stumping
the northern counties of Idaho and
recently spoke four evenings in
Shoshone county, viz: at Burke,
Murray, Wardner and Kingston,
where, as everywhere, he was re-
ceived with the utmost cordially
and enthusiasm. At Lewiston the
democratic rally on Hawley's arri-
val was the largest ever seen there.
Uniformed clubs, brass bands and
citizens generally formed an i'm
mense torchlight procession, and
the city was fairly awakened to the
magnitude and Importance of the
campaign. Mr.. Hawley will prob
ably leave the north with 1000 ma
jority in that section. He will be
ut Pocatcllo this evening, and after
taking in Boise, Weiser, Mountain
ltome and Shoshone: respectively,
will reach Ketchum on the I'd.
Preparations will be made for
grand turnout on that occasion.
After leaving here Mr.. Hawley will
go to Bellevue and wind up the
campaign at HALEY on the 5th.

The Assessors Shortage.

The county assessors shortage
amounting to something like $1,000,
has been thoroughly uncovered by
the commissioners, who have given
Mr.. J. H. Van Ness entire charge
of the office This action on the
part Of the commissioners is timely,
lnasmuch as great portion Of the
tax collections are yet to be made,
and the assessors commissions on
the revenues of the office will prob
ably be sufficient to reduce his
shortage to minimum. At least
Mr.. Van Ness is of this opinion
and will keep the accounts on a
salary with that end in view. If
the plan is successful the bondsmen
Of Mr.. Yeates will be called upon
severally for but a small pro rata
amount, not exceeding, in total,
$500 to $4,000. 1t seems that the
assessors affairs have been in rather
an unhealthy condition for some
time past and it is indeed fortunate
for his sureties that the county
commissioners have looked into
the matter at this time.

Coal Discoveries.

Several discoveries of coal OF
Ignite have been made public the
past few days, in Boise valley, and
also in Owyhee county, Idaho, on
Succor and Reynolds creeks. Spec
linens from a nine-foot measure on
Succor creek look as if the only
trouble about making it merch-
antable article, is the tendency to
crumble. AS only surface samples
have been taken, it may be that
when depth is obtained much bet
ter quality will be found. There is
no discount in the amount of heat
and nice ash it makes. On the 18th
a discovery was made on Reynolds
creek not far from the stage station.
The measure is fourteen feet wide.

A Huge Placer Scheme.

The large placer grounds in Car.
lboo, Idaho, have gone into new
hands. Cariboo has been known a
long time as good placer country
but the claims were so divided up
that they could not be worked to
| advantage. Mr.. C. J. Clark took
hold of the matter three or four
months ago and bought out the
owners, some fifteen in all. This
done, he organized in Chicago the
American Placer Company, COM
posed of Chicago, Michigan and
Ohio men of large capital. The
capital stock was placed at 100000
shares at $16 each. Alfred Kiddor
of Marquette, Michigan, is president
and W. B. Dalliba, general mana
ger. The company owns 5000 acres
placer ground, extending twelve
miles along Mccoy creek, and
ranging from five to eight feet deep.
1t samples from fifteen cents up
into number of dollars per cubic
foot, some of the gravel close to bed
rock running up to nearly $40 per
yard. It was only few days ago
that the titles were all made clear
and the placers fully possessed by
the new company, and yet they
have 800 men and sixty teams now
ditch seven feet wide at the
bottom, eleven at the top and five
feet deep. This ditch will be twelve
miles long and tapping various
small streams along the rim, also
Jacknife and Tin Cup creeks, will
convey 1000 inches of water to the
placers which, with the 1000 inches
supplied, will be ample to
run dozen or fifteen giants three
months in season. There is am

Governor Stevenson's Report.

| Governor Stevenson estimates the
population of Idaho at about 1OO,.
900, and the value of taxable prop
erty at $21 ,238, 1892, which, his re.
port says, is less than half it's ac-
tual value in cash. About 100000
acres of public land have been en-.
tered during the year. The agri-
cultural and grazing statistics are
given. The report from the United
States assay office at Boise City
shows the gold, silver and lead pro-
duction of the territory for the year
$8,9O5,136 of which gold was 3d.
522, 209, silver $3,422,6 57 and lead
So, 96O,27O. The Governor recon-
mends that the Indians be given
their lands in severalty and that
the balance Of the reservations be
opened to settlement, that the peo-
pie of the territories be given the
right to vote for President and Vice
President; that the territory be
given the right to lease school lands
and apply the proceeds to the school
funds; that the mail facilities of
Idaho be increased, and that all
crimes committed by the Indians
on the reservation be tried in the
United States courts at the expense
of the United States.

The People of the North SIS Of BIS

The following, from the Boise
Democrat of the 21st instant, il
self-explanatory:
1t having been reported by dem.
ocrats and denied by republicans
that Mr.. Dubois, in an interview
with J. B. Oldham, had applied an
opprobrious epithet to those oppo.
sed to him, we wrote to Mr.. Oldham
to know whether it were true OF
false with request that he furnish
us with correct account Of the con-
yersation, if any, that took place
between them. The following is
Mr.. Oldham's reply, over his own
signature, which we give precisely
as written:
HALEY, IDAHO, Oct. Is.
A. J. BoYAK1N, Editor Idaho
Democrat-Dear Sir: In reply to
yours of the 18th inst, I have to
state that | met Mr.. Dubois at Sho-
shone on the 9th, and after pleas
ant chat of few minutes upon gen.
eral topics he said without preface
or other remark:
"All decent people are for me,
and all sons-of-bitches are against
me-"
| made no reply but turned away.
| afterward repeated his statement
to mutual friend through whose
instrumentality l presume Mr. Du-
Bots sought another interview with
nae, IN the course of which he ex-
eused himself for the statement by
saying that he intended to include
in the list of those opposed to him
only Mormons and segregationists;
and that he meant no offense to me
or any of his friends. I told him
that | took no ofense personally
at all.
| next met Mr.. Dubois at Boise
City, when he said that he had
quarrel for me if / wanted one. l
told him that l wanted no quarrel
with him. He said that | had re-
peated what he had said to me at
Shoshone without giving his expla-
nation of such statement. | told
him that he had been misinformed
that | had repeated his statement,
but had also carefully given his ex-
PLANTATION in full. He then said I |
had no right to repeat such a state
ment in view of the personal friend
ship then existing between us. | |
said: "Mr. Dubois, l am and have
been always a personal friend of
yours, but am not your political
friend and | claim the right to
repeat any political information
you may impart"
This is the substance of all that
has passed between us in regard to
the matter, and the statement that
he made to me at Shoshone is given
in his exact words, while I have
endeavored to do him full Justice
in his explanation.
So far as betraying his confidence
IN any way by repeating his state
nent and explanation is concerned,
have to say that my relations
With Mr.. Dubois have never been
30 intimate that I have given him
my reason to suppose that I held
1im in any higher esteem than l
1eld my allegiance to the demo-
ratio party.
Yours, truly, J. B. OLDHAM.
