But soon after few leaders came
to Ireland's rescue. Grattan, Flood,
Charlemont and others worked for
this down-trodden people. The
Irish Volunteers with Grattan, sup.
ported by Flood, made demands Of
England which were granted, and
once more Ireland was free. One
of the first acts of the newly enfran.
chised Legislature was to introduce
measures for the Protection of Irish
industries by placing heavy duties
on all imported goods. Then sprung
up wonderful spirit of enterprise,
and soon Ireland's industry and
prosperity was the greatest she had
ever known. The island was dot ed
over with busy hives and marts Of
industry. Her ports were alive with
commerce, her ships visited every
sea, her nag noated IN every port,
her people were peaceful, contented
and happy; landlord and tenant
were alike satisfied. Trere was a
ready home market for produce, and
a continually increasing demand for
the wares of the manufacturer; the
laborer had steady employment at
high wages, they were well-fed, com
fortabIy housed and decently cloth
ed. This was Ireland under Protec-
ton. But, alas! it could not last
long. English monopollsts and
landlords could not brook such grow

WEIsER LEADER: A movement is
now on foot in town to raise a fund
10 open wagon road from Payette
Lake to Warrers, in Idaho county
and which, we are pleased to say, is
taking well with our business men.
This is move in the right direction,
If we are correctly informed. The
mining camp of Warrens is distant
from Weiser one hundred and eighty
miles, with good wagon road cover
ing one hundred miles of the distance.
The remaining eighty miles is ira
versed with good trail, which could,
with comparatively small amount OF
money, be widened into reasonably
good wagon road, which would be
passable during period of six months
OF each year. Messrs. Gagan and
Hoyt, with their usual enterprise, are
now working up the matter, and have
met with unexpected success. They
have reports from their two lieuten
ants, c. R. White in Salmon Mead
ows and Thos. Norcross in Counci
Valley, which are Hattering in the ex
treme, saying nothing about the othel
valleys above, which will not be back

IDAHO ENTERPRISE: In a recent
letter from Delegate Dubois he in
forms US that he is making strenuous
efforts to have the Lemhi Indians re-
moved to Fort Hall reservation, and
a portion of said reservation divided
in severalty among the Indians that
would then be placed there, throwing
the rest of the reservation open to
settlement by white settlers. Should
Mr.. Dubois succeed in his efforts it
will put a feather in his cap that
would tower nightly in the coming
campaign. Nothing that could be
expected from his labors in Congress
would more effectually please and
satisfy his constituency. What great
advantages would result to Southern
Idaho Hundreds of good and per
manent homes established on land:
that merely supply band of lazy
Indians with lounging ground, ant
where the industrious white intrude
is constantly annoyed with threats o
removal. We trust that Mr.. Dubois
efforts may not prove unavalling.

The BEDROCK FLUME.-The Board
OF Trade of Boise City have forward
ed protest to Hon. F. T. Dubois.
against the passage of the bill intro.
duced by him in Congress sometime
ago. to grant the right-of- way to the
Boise Basin Bedrock Flume Compa-
ny, and permission to construct bed
rock flume through Boise and Ada
counties. The proposition raises the
"debrls" question which has so long
agitated the grangers of California.
There is very little probability of
the bill ever reaching hearing be-
fore the proper committee, much less
OF its becoming law as long as so
many OF our Senators and Congress-
men have the "good of the public do
main" SO much on the brain.
Ii such fume was built it might
possibly cause some slight damage
and detriment to the farming COM
munity, yet it would certainly be a
Godsend to the owners of mining
claims along its proposed course, and
which they have held onto these many
years, waiting for some such relief.
1t is generally acceded that upon the
bedrock of thar claims, bushels of
gold exist, but it is valueless until
they can get water. If it would be
the means of thoroughly unlocking
the wealth of the auriferous deposits
OF the great Boise Basin, we think
the right asked for in the bill ought
to be granted. Such relief would be
especially welcome now in these hard
times caused by the contraction OF
the currency and the demonetization
of silver. But Congress is letting
Legislation upon such important sub
jects severely alone, while it devotes
its time to discussing the Blair school
bill, which has been brought up be-
fore every Congress for the last
twelve years. Ketchum Keystone
If the Keystone had said that q
bedrock flume could not possibly
in any manner, cause the slightest
damage or detriment to the farming
community it would have been exact
ly correct. What the owners o
claims along the sides of these creek
need, and what the working of th'
beds of the creeks by means of bed
rock fume would give them, is no
"water," but better dump, SO tina
ground that cannot now be worke'
will pay. Locked up in the beds O
( the creeks of the Basin are not mere
ly thousands nor hundreds of thou

HE IOliOwinS u an eAtfhcs iIoui
very able article in the Statesman on
the bedrock fume question:
Moore's creek, which brings all the
water from Boise basin, never has
been known to rise over ten feet dur
ing high water, or In seasons OF fresh
cts. There is no comparison between
the streams and mining in California,
referred to by the Board of Trade
and the streams and mining opera
tions in Boise county. The American
river raised ninety feet in forty-eight
hours in the winter Of 1862. Bear,
Yuba and Feather rivers in time OF
high water are immense, and Moores
creek is rivulet compared with
either Of these streams. The mining
in the Sierra mountains on these
streams bears no comparison to the
mining in Boise county. In the lat
ter place they are turning over linn
tied amount of dirt with limited
amount of water, while in California
they are piping down mighty noun
tains and with the aid of large rivers
carrying it into navigable and tide
water. The limited supply of water
in Boise county can never move dirt
any great distance, unless it IS con-
fined in a fume. Besides this
Moore's creek canyon will hold all
the debris, sand and gravel that can
be mined in these creeks without
moving it five miles from its present
place of deposit. 1t is merely turning
the dirt over by the process of wash
ing it through fume, and it will not
be moved further than necessity re-
quires to pu. it through the washing
process. OF course it will color the
water and it will look dirty, but this
dirty water will only enrich the lane
that it irrigates. The Ridenbaugh
Walling, Boise canal, Dry creek, o
any of the bitches in this valley hav'
never been filed up or injured b.
any tailiugs from the mines. Th
dirty water may leave little scum 0
mud in the bottom of the ditch whe
? it is turned off, but not more thal
enough to puddle ditch in any on
year, and this scum, or sedlmen
:, comes more from the top soil OF tn
banks that wash into the river tina
: from any other source. As proof
. this, we will ask any man to go an
examine this mud or sediment and Sc
4 if any of it gives the least evidene
\ that it came from a mining CLAIM
20 This dirty water is far more valuab
70 for irrigating purposes than clea
= water, because it brings some soil
:, to the land and is counted by the il
70 telligent farmer as crop of manur
while the clear water will wash tt
" good soil away. In another artic
- we will endeavor to show some of Il
~ benefits resulting from bedro'
n fiume, and why no protest should
i made against it.
