ALTURAs county has been talking
for long time about putting a road
through from Wood River to Sheep
Mountain via Stanley Basin and Cape
Horn. Already wagons run as far as
Cape Horn, but the road will have to
be improved in many places before
heavy freighting can be done over 1t.
The distance from Cape Horn to
Sheep Mountain is about thirty miles.
The agitation of the question of put
ting this road through has crystalized
into a determination to do the work,
and to complete the road this season.
This will be good for Boise and Ada
counties. There is natural road
nearly the entire distance from Dead
wood Basin to Cape Horn, thirty
miles or less. There is talk of con-
structing a road this year from Car
den valley, in this county, to Dead
wood. Different routes will be eN-
amined soon, and estimates made of
the cost and the distance Of each OF
two or three proposed routes. Those
acquainted with the country say that
a road to Sheep Mountain by way OF
Deadwood would have advantages
over one from Wood River. 1t coulo
be travelled greater portion OF the
wear, and the distance from Sheep
Mountain and surrounding district
would be nearer to a supply point b,
way of Deadwood Basin. 1t woul'
be a great benefit TO this and Ad
county to open communication Wit
= Deadwood, to say nothing of Seafoam
:, Sheep Mountain, Stanley Basin an
other mining districts, that can b
reached at very little expense froI
Deadwood, as thirty miles OF tn
toughest part of the route will t
graded by Alturas county. If ever
" section of this and Ada county to
N benefited will pull together and vii
lv an earnest determination to p'
as the road through this summer, Il
.s work will be accomplished, and if q
,g ioin in the amount to be contribute
by each section will be but little.

AVALANCHE: "The Mormons," says
the Southern Idaho Independent,
"will defeat Dubois in case he Is re-
nominated, and the Mormons will
vote" The Independent may be on
the inside, and may know whereof it
speaks, but as there are always two
parties to an election the result will
remain to be proven. Mr. Dubois
will undoubtedly get the nomination
if he wants it, and he will receive the
hearty support of his party in the
election. But why the Mormons will
vote for Democrat, who will run on
an anti Mormon platform, in prefer
ence to an anti Mormon Republican,
it is hard to tell, unless it be that they
are all Democrats. The present
Democratic administration under Mr..
Cleveland has sat down on them very
hard, and will continue to do so, 1t is
hoped, whether it makes Democrats
or Republicans of them. We can see
no good reason why they should op'
pose Mr.. Dubois solidly, except it be
that he used his best efforts agalns
them when Marshall, and has done
the same in Congress. When it Is
positively known they intend making
a fight against him because of hl
honesty of purpose in trying to have
polygamy blotted out, he will recelY'
enough more votes from the la'
abiding citizens of Idaho to elect hin
to Congress- the second time. II tn
Mormons vote they will have to swal
low a test oath, and when they d
that if they do not swear the trut
they will be hauled up for perjury.

Americas Rich Gypsics.

have no doubt that half a million Of
the million and a half gypsies we now
have among us are what are known
among The Romany as drom gypsics-
that is, gypSies Of the road; gyp,irs whose
heritage OF patriarchal and piigriming
tradition will no more permit them to
herd in towns, ave out Of Necessity, than
will foxes. OF these, as | have previ-
ously stated in print. | have names and
addresses of nearly 1000 heads Of fami-
lies, OF petty tribes, whose combined
wealth exceeds $500, 900. 900. Hosts
aside from these have gained or are
securing little properties. These largely
consist of fine farms, country tavern
stands, toll gate privileges, tracts of wood
land Of which they are very fond, livery
sales stables in the smaller towns and
villages, and. not infrequently. extensive
town properties, particularly the larger
sales stables in metropolitan cities.
Thousands upon thousands are able to
live comfortably without effort upon
rentals aud Otiur incomes. But they are
never idle, and ne, fail If passing some
portion If each summer upon the road.

Common People Of Russip.

There is q lower grade of intelligence
In the common people in Russia than was
ever found among the blacks Of America
during slavery. The American negro
had from the very beginning a natural
''horse sense" a cunning which gave
him reason. There is nothing in the
minds Of the mass of Russians except that
which is carried by the senses of sight
and hearing. They do not reason. In
st. Petersburg there are thousands Of
drosky (carriage) drivers, and | am told
that not one in twenty car read the signs
along the streets, and not two in i've
hundred can read a book or newspaper.
And yet these men have had, for Rus
SLAMS, extraordinary opportunities. What,
then, must be- the condition of the people
in the country-those who have not had
contact with the world?
The proportion of these ignorant peo-
pie TO the intelligent and educated Is

SINGULAR, IF TRUE.-A strange fight &C.
Cured in North Danville few days ago.
Two men, Charles Verga and Robert Willis,
employees in the cotton mills, had difficulty in
the afternoon, which being renewed after
nightfall, they agreed to disarm themselves
and fight it ont with fsticuffs. Mutual friends
searched each man carefully and relieved
them of their knives, when the two
walked out in the street and commenced
fight after the mostapproved prizs.ring rules.
After much sparring and boxing the bellig
erents clinched and both went to grass
in struggle. Suddenly both cried murder
and begged for mercy. Friends rushed in, sep.
arated the combatanrs and found that both
had been more or less seriously cut in two
places, Verga in the left breast and back and
Willis in the shoulder and on the hand.
Both men vow they we're unarmed, and the
knife found on the ground after the fight be-
longed to neither. The bystanders say they
ere sure third party did notspproach near
enough to the fighters to do the cutting.
