Christmasi on Squaw Creek.
OLA, BOISE Co., Jan. 4, 1888.

OLA, BOISE Co., Jan. 4, 1888.
Christmas has come and gone, but
it went alone, for it left its never-to-
be-forgotton memories with the peo-
pie of this place. The school house
was the place selected aud chosen by
the people to erect their tree. The
house was arranged, the tree erected,
and it was we'll laden with beautiful
and costly presents. Atseven o'clock
the congregation had arrived, and the
performance began, consisting OF an
opening address by Mr.. -. song
by the Ola String Band, tableaux,
declarations, and dialogues, after
which Santa Clans made his appear
ance with his basket full of good
things for the children. After he had
distributed his load through the
crowd, the tree was stripped OF its
burden, after which the room was
cleared aud the tables spread with
the best the farmers can raise on
their well-tilled ranches. II any per-
son or persons think their women can
get up better supper than the WON
en- of Ola, all we bave to say is trot
them out. Every one present did
justice to the supper, especially our
self. We believe in the saying which
says, 81 will excel" 1t was after IL
o'clock VII the crowd started for
home, each and every face beaming
with joy. On Monday night the
young folks met at the same place
aud tripped the light fantastic until a
late hour, and thus Christmas ended
at Ola. All have expressed desire
to have as good tine next Christ
mas. Respectfully,

THE following is from the tele-
graphic columns of the Salt Lake Tri-
bune: 'In the house, Delegate Du-
bos, OF Idaho, is already looked up
on as the natural leader in the strug-
gle against Utah's admission. He is
making friends by the score on pure
" personal grounds. His manly out
spoken opposition to law breakers
and law detiers, and his indignant I'M
masking of the arguments that the
contest is purely a political one are
having their effect. | know from
inside sources that Speaker Carlisle
is sincerely anxious to appoint Mr..
Dubois on the committee on terrific.
sies, out is embarrassed by the fight
Springer is making for his friend 10
seph, OF New Mexico. IT. been an IN
written rule that only one delegate
should have place on that commit
tee. This may defeat Mr.. Dubois in
favor Of the Mexican, who is said to
be not unfriendly 10 the church, and
who received the full vote of Zion in
his late contest. But, however this
may be, Fred Dubois will be heard
from as an influential factor in the
lower branch Of congress, especially
in connection with matters of local
importance to his constituency and
near neighbors."

and Their Promises,

"When the devil was sick the devil
a saint would be-" and like promises
the Mormons are making in hopes Of
securing the admission of Utah as a
state. Those people who best KIN wv
the Mormons understand how utterly
lacking in sincerity they are when
pledging themselves to observe the
laws. If they had regard for the
laws they would have observed them
now. Instead of which they have
violated the statutes constantly and
defed the power of the government
to enforce them. This being the fact,
it requires an extraordinary assurance
on their part to come forward now
and say; "Permit us to put ourselves
where your laws cannot reach us and
we will obey them" Stress is laid
upon the pledges embodied in the
so-called constitution adopted at a
meeting Of the Utah Mormons the
past summer, and minority of the
Utah commission has been so blinded
by the willy polygamist as to give
credence to their sincerity. But the
history of this leprous sect shows that
its members believe thoroughly in
the doctrine that the end justifies the
means. 1t will be strange if congress,
which has been so deaf to the impor-
tunities of such large, growing and
thrifty territory as Dakota for admis-
sion, turns willing ear to the Nor
mon wall Rochester IN. W Her

take the entire production of all cop

bearing veins, which have every APP

THE production of coal in Idaho
for the year 1886 amounted to 10000
tons--so says an annual entitled,
"The Coal Trade" compiled by the
editor of the Coal Trade Journal,
New York. 1t says of Idaho: BIZ
luminous coal and lignites, some of
which burn well, have been found at
many points in Idaho. In the Squaw
country, 20 miles from Boise City, the
outcrop of good coal is found over a
district of 2 miles square. The coal
has been tested and has proven ex.

to carry on mining operations IN the
district, and contracts could readily
be placed for it. "This coal may be
possibly used extensively at the
smelters in the vicinity of WOOD
River" says Haley paper.

RECORD UNION: Rev. Hugh
Prince, of London, had the courage
to say that "no man can rightly call
himself an English gentleman who
shakes hands with John l.. Sullivan"
Mr. Prince meant thereby 1.-The first
gentleman of England" otherwise
his Royal Highness, Wales. The
reverend gentleman was bold but
right in his expression. The men
who assume to be models of gentility
and yet recognize the bully Sullivan
whose slogging brutality has not
stopped at the prize ring, but has
been visited upon women, weak men
aud inoffensive persons, are not fit to
fix the standards of deoancy. All the
newspaper reporting of the prize ring,
all the defenses made for athletics,
all the pleas in support of "the manly
art" all the recognition that kings
and princes can give it and its high
priests, will not make prize fighting
anything better than brutal work, de-
basing and demoralizing to the last
extreme. When the Prince Of Wales
shook hands with slogger Sullivan he
offended decency and outraged
gentility. Not that the Prince is
virtue itself, or that Sullivan's associa.
ton would especially damage his
sensibilities, but because, as heir APP
parent to the throne of one OF the
greatest nations of earth, he had no
right to give public recognition and
Endorsement to a slogger, fellow of
the slums, whose abnormal develop
ment Of muscle happens to make him
an unequal antagonist for most men.
Any influence that casts its weight in
favor of this lawless man, aud prize
fighter, and heater of small men
this gross and vulgar animal; puts
itself upon level with him, and
that no self-respecting man - all such
are gentlemen-willd do.

ThurstOn is the man who took his grip
sack and fled from Omaha when ex-Gov-
ernor PattisOn's Pacific railroad COM
mission came to Omaha to inquire into
the crimes of the Union Pacific COM
pany, and especially into its crime of
bribing and corrupting the Nebraska
legislature, including the defeat of eX-
Senator Van Wyck, after the people of
that state had instructed the legislature
to elect him. The NOnpareil lauds on
all occasions John NJ. Thurston as
great statesman, and knows of no rea-
son why he should not go into General
Harrison's cabinet, save that he has
scarcely done enough work yet for the
party to entitle him to such distlnc-
tion." The truth is, that such organs
as the Nonpareil do not know the diff
erance between railroad manager and
a statesman, and in this way unwittingly
bear, testimony to the fact that
it has never considered suffi-
centiy to comprehend and
that is that the railroad estab-
lishment of this country Is col
ossal power, commanding the high
ways of the country and robbiDg the
people of the country through their
fraudulent stocks and bonds in the
enormous charges based thereon, of
more than $7O0,00O,00O annually, and
feeling in the plentitude of their pow
ers and the docility of their victims,
that they are more than a match for the
people In their governmental capacity.
They are developing few great CEN
ters of population and prosperity from
twelve to twenty-four hours runs apart
ana driving the intermediate sections
into mortgaged Indebtedness that will
transfer it to themselves and their con-
federates il their career is not checked.
In short, the people are to-day living
in railroad corporation and tine peoples
president is but fgurehead as the
real directors OF the country are the
directors of the railroad companies.
Mr.. John M. Thurston is the mcanest
and worst form Of tool and instrument
for the most gigantic and infamous
band of highwaymen and robbers that
this or any other country has ever seen.

certainly difficult one, but its solution
cannot be impossible.

IT is undoubtedly true that the people
OF Colorado and the territories hardly
realize the great natural resources OF
that section Of the country awaiting to
be developed. We have repeatedly
called attention to the possibilities and
benefits which will como TO the west
through the development of the petro-
leum fields and asphaltum beds OF
Wyoming and Colorado 1t now comes
to light that there is a great future for
the uses to which the soda deposits so
plentiful in all the territories can be
put. In Wyoming, especially, there
are remarkably rich deposits OF pure
soda found in the so-catled soda lakes.
The proximity of soda to fine beds OF
quartz, sand and limestone makes 1t
possible that in the near future extern
sive glass works will be established.
There is but one thing necessary.
Nature has provided everything In the
laboratory except anthracite coal,
which is u prime necessity to supply
hot blast for making blown
or pressed glass. Unfortunately
anthracite coal is not known TO exist in
the bowels of the Rocky mountains.
But it's place can be supplied by petro-
leum. which can be made to yield
flame equally as reliable and as hot as
from anthracite coal. 1t is plainly evil
dent that not only the glass industry
but other great manufacturing enter
prises are awaiting the development OF
the natural oil regions Of Wyoming and
Colorado. For that reason the petro-
leum beds of these localities should be
developed without further delay.

AVERT THE DANGER.

The business of the rich agricultural
| districts Of northwestern Nebraska and
of the thriving towns OF Norfolk,
O'Neill, Neigh and others should be
tributory to Omaha. We should he able
| to receive all their corn, cattle and
| hogs, and to sell them the greater part
of their groceries, dry goods, clothing
and hardware. There is danger how
ever that the exchange OF trade which
| should naturally flow between our city
| and that section of the state will be cut
oil and diverted to other channels. The
complaints of the farmers and mer-
chants are that they have no direct and
proper railroad communication with
Omaha, that the facilities for shipment
are irregular and unsatisfactory and
that the local rates are higher and out
of proportion to the through rates made
from the east.
Such state OF affairs should be rem
edied, and it behoves our business
community to bestir itself to remove
these artificial barriers. These COM
plants are founded on facts Almost
the whole of the northern part Of the
state is drained by the Chicago &
Northwestern system. All the princi-
pal towns in northeastern Nebraska
are tapped by the feeders and branch
roads of this railway which converge at
points near the Missouri river TO feed
the main lines running to Chicago.
From the nature of its business, it is to
the advantage of the Chicago 81 North
western system to carry Nebraslla's s pro-
duct the whole length of its line to Chi
cago, and bring back to our state the
groceries and dry goods and commodi-
ties used. That is the reason why Chi
cago aud not Omaha Is favored. And
that explains why the Chicago &
Northwestern discourages trade be-
tween northern Nebraska and Omaha
by irregular service and disproportion-
ate rates. The remedy in the matter
can be applied. The people of northern
Nebraska want to trade with
Omaha. They recognize that it
market for their produce here. 1t is
necessary, therefore, for the jobbers Of
Omaha and the business communities
of the northern part of the state to take
such action as will put a stop to the dis
elimination against Omaha. They
should encourage the extension of com
peting lines from Omaha into the vari
GUS counties drained by the Northwest
ern railroad. And above all the project
of building an Independent line from
our city into that territory should not
be abandoned.
