" FORT FIZZLE."
A True Story Of Northern Rebels During the Var

True Story or Northern Rebels During the Var.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: During the
late rebellion there were lots of sympathizers
of the rebellion in the North Some miles
east of Gambler, O.. the rebellious spirit waxed
so high that those rebels who had not gone
South or to Canada organized a rebel company,
about 20 strong and built the notorious Fort
Fizzle"
The building of the intrenchments showed
at once their lack of sense and military ability.
They built the fort in valley where it could
easily have been raked by artillery on any side
from the tops of the steep hills. By some
means or other they secured a hoWitzer and
planted it on the ramparts. They had a large
assortment of shot-guns, pistols and knives of
all kinds.
About this time about seven or eight wound
ed soldiers (Union) came home on furloughs.
They happened to hear of Fort Fizzle," and
thought they would have some fun Aiming
themselves, they made raid toward the fort.
When they reached the fort the rebs COM
menced rapidly to retreat They climbed one
of the hills in the greatest disorder without
firing shot The Union soldiers fired one
yolley and one of the rebs fell, wounded.
1t was terrible battle; 1. e., the rebels lost
heavily in arms, besides the fort, and as to the
missing, the whole company was missing
thenceforth. 1t is needless to say that the
epithet g Fizzle " was applied by our own men.
This story is true in every particular, but we
withhold names for reasons best known to
ourselves.-FRED W. HART, son of w, T. Hart,

TAKING the view that Congress
will admit no Territory to State
hood unless she has the population
required to entitle her to one repre-
sentative, do the people generally
anticipate where the next census
will leave Idaho in that respect? 1t
is thought by many that the pres
ent number of Representatives, 325,
make body far too cumbersome
for legislative purposes. In view of
this the present ratio of representa-
ton, 10000, will, by the next GEN.
sus, be increased to over 100000.
With these facts in view it behooves
Idaho to attempt to acquire State
hood before the next census in
creases the ratio. THE TRIBUNE

article of Hon. w. I'll. Claggett, pub
lished some weeks ago, favoring
consolidation with Montana. The

SALMON HATCHERY.

You begin by catching the. old
or parent fish. From these spawn or
eggs are taken, and placed in bas-
kets or boxes, where the fresh water
pours through over them until they
hatch. Every day the eggs have to
be examined, and the dead eggs,
which are known by their turning
white, taken out from among the
others. After the first hatch, they
are kept in the hatchery until about
six weeks old, when thew are turn
ed out into the river, to find their
way, after a time, to the sea, when
they start on three years. voyage.
And now for the curious part of this
matter. When a young salmon
goes to sea, it is said by persons
who have made "salmonology" a
life study, that it does not return to
fresh water until three years later.
They then come back to the same
stream from which they went to
sea, and they never return to salt
water a second time. Instead, they
pass up the stream in which they
first wiggled their fins, until they
deposit their spawn; they then rise
higher, higher, higher in the stream
until the water grows shallower,
and the rifles and gravel bars get
nearer and nearer the surface, when
