Give yhe vaqusros "a Chance.

Inyo Independent: Mr.. r. L. Full
ton has made suggestion to The Di-
rectors of the Nevada State Fair that
the Directors of our own District Fair
might adopt with advantage The
proposition 10 the rodeoing Of a few
range cattle, and the riding of range
horses. The cattle and horse ranges
of the West are are distinctively Amer
lean institutions, original and inlnii
able. The crack riders of other .coun
tries would be as much at sea ON a
bucking broncho rs sailor would be
in a balloon, and yet. not one in hun
dred, even in Nevada has ever seen
any range riding. 1t would be done
by cutting out one animal at time.
and the instant it left the band the
horseman on deck would take after it,.
The time it would take him to lasso it.,
throw it down and tie it would be the
score for others TO beat, as they in turn
have trial. The "broncho busting"
Us the boys call it, could be done on
the speed ring, although the other
trials would need the large ground the
center. A few wild horses could be-
provided, and there are dozens of boys
in this State ready to ride anything
that has -four 4aegs, on the shortest
notice. There would be no way to
try the degrees of skill, perhaps, so it
would have to be arranged to pay 80
much apiece. The horses would be
blinded, saddled and bridled as part
of the exhibition, and it would BE-
exciting enough for any one.

The May Overland Monthly opens
with an appreciative and amusing
article on Western Caricature, in which
the writer discusses the various phases
of life that have seemed most fitting
to the humorist IN Il ack arr e.
The author illustrates his statements
with specimens of large number of
reproductions of numerous drawings
There is scholarly study Of the
growth OF the swiss Constitution most

Professor Bernard Moses, of the Uni

Irving M. Scott, the Leading. iron
manufacturer of the Pacific Coast,
writes an article on the Surplus, in
which ne presents the views Of the
protectionist and the practical busine, 8
man.
In the line OF light sketches which
is one of the Overland's strongholds
there are two: d. S. Richardson's
"Adrift IN, the Swamps OF Chalco," a
picturesque episode Of Mexican travel
told in IL charming literary style, and
"Caugbt In q Sierra Snow.storm," a
vivid story of deadly peril in the high
Sierras.
The stories are strong and reliable.
TX. G. c." the story of Alcatraz in
war times, Is brought TO a tragic con.
clusion, and anew tbree-month story, a
close study of working girls in San
Francisco, is begun. ."Portia," is a
pretty, short story, and "The Pros.
| pector's Story" will call to many an
old prospector his own wild vicissi-
tudes of hope and despair.
Reviews, poems, and editorials are
all up to the grade of similar work in
any magazine; and altogether the
Overland is a vigorous, able.bodied
representative publication that does
credit to the Pacific Coast.

The Primaries.

The Republican Primaries were held
on Saturday, April 2Sth., and The Dem

of them caused The least excitement
as here was no opposition on either

Darlington speaks of had no effect in
creating any excitement. and her en-
thusIastic denunciaiions in her last
issue wer wasted. In tire way SHE
spoke of it in her frey editorial she
evidently anticipated very lively day
and expected to witness "other per.

Death of. a Pioneer Idahoan.

The Boise Statesman, 22d inst,
records the death of Benjamin f.
Anderson, at his home in that city,
Nov. 81, 1888, of pneumonia. Aged
"a years. In an obituary the
Statesman says: ''Ben Anderson,
as. he was familiary called, was
born in Pennsylvania. but left home
and learned the carpenters trale.
When the mi,.ing excitement broke
out in California he struck out for
the gold felds.of that state. He
followed gold exeitemcnts in Cali-
fofnia, and went to Frazier river,
in British Columbia, about 1860,
and finally came to the Florence
gold excitement in 1862, and to
Boise county in 1868, and has re-
manned in the Territory ever since.
Ben Anderson was what might be
termed a rough frontier miner, and
had his likes and dislikes, but his
friendship was generous toa fault,
and he never did or said too much
for friend. His property, consist.
ing Of house and lots, worth 3d..
600, will go to his daughter, Mrs
Geo. Davis, of Weiser, Idaho"

In the Alaskan Gold Fields

|; The gravel washing season Of the
Yukon river has closed. The season
was unusually brief this year, the
extremely cold weather coming ear
lier than was expected. This, how
ever, will not interrupt the taking
out of gold-bearing gravel, but will
in a measure facilitate their work.
The river freezes to great depth,
and on the banks and bars the
ice is frequently solid to the bottom
The miners cut away the ice and
then dig up the gravel, which is al
so frozen solid, and carry it in great
masses to the hume stations prepar-
ed for its reception. Here the grav-
ell is stored until the river breaks up,
when it is run through the fumes
and the gold recovered. In this
way one part took out 81 800 to the
hand for the seasons run. The
gold is coarse, nuggets ranging from
500 to $40 in value being found.
/ Provisions are highpriced. Flour
costs 20 cents pounds; bacon, 40
cents; beans, 80 cents; sugar, 30;
dried apples, 80, and other things in
proportion, there being fair supply
| of all the articles required. In the
open season fish are plentiful. Last
winter there were forty cases of
scuryy among the.miners, and three
deaths occurred. The Indians are
fneaeeable and willing to work.

Annexation.

The prospects for annexation are
far better than. ever before, for if,
as it is claimed by the Republicans,
they have captured the lower house
along with their presidential vic
tory, all the territories will be adj
lnitted that will make republican
states, Washington among the rest,
and with the republican influence
that is in favor of the annexation of
North Idaho to Washington, we
have every reason to believe this
desired result will be easily accom-
plished.-Moscow Star.
This republican influence is sup
posed to be Senators Dolph OF Ore
gon, and Stewart of Nevada.
