"A'hs niucn the world may ad-
vance, a petrifaction remains ever the
same; but change, growth, advance
ment, enlightenment go marching on.
pushing aside or stepping over petri.
fed things of past dark ages, and al
though the petrifactions are met with
the procession pushes them aside Or
walks over them without impeding
its progress but slightly. Those who
:" sit on a dead limb of the tree Of
knowledge " and hoot petri6ed boots
or sing monotonous petri6ed songs
OF a dead and petri6ed age, cannot
draw the procession from its onward
course. The history of the world
shows that its march has ever been
onward and upward, so it undoubted-
ly ever will be. Call it evolution
working out its laws, or what YOU
will, it's a fact that the procession
never rests. It's a law of nature that
cannot be overcome. Superstitions
die to make room for enlightenment,
scientific discoveries and higher
grade of healthy morality-not a mo.
rality sought to be promoted bv a
superstitious fear, or for reward
in other words morality for revenue
only-which is bogus and hypocrlti-
cal, but a morality springing from a
fountain of love, humanity, refine
ment of feelings, softening and re-
fining of the sentiments from within
not guided by a tempting reward
held out, or to avoid a superstitious
picture of an Imagination filled with
horrors of hell, to blunt the sensibili-
ties and finer feelings, harden the
heart and make morality of rotten,
sickly kind, for future pay simply
child born of fear, darkness and su-
perstition, which is spurious, and
cannot rise to the dignity and refined
position of pure righteousness grown
in the bright sunshine, within, of no.
BILE desires to do what is right. The
reward comes from within, and this
reward educates more healthy, hap
py morality than that brought into ex-
istence and action by the expectation
of coming compensation or fear of
punishment. This latter is forced
morality, hard hearted, cold, grim
visaged, and without sentiment or
feeling. A thief who is honest for
reward is a thief still. A villain
whose villainies are kept in the back
ground for fear of punishment, or for
reward, is, Notwithstanding the fact
villain at heat still and is entitled
to no credit for his conduct, which
is simply guided by policy, not ;
pure sentiment growing within in th'
warm sunlight of refined feelings
and bearing rich fruits, where th'
horrible demons of superstition ant
fear lurk not.

MASONIC HALL was filled almost to
overfowing last Tuesday evening,
the occasion being the second meet
ing of the Idaho City Musical and
Literary Association. The first on
the program was a reading by John
o. Taylor, followed by selection
read by Miss Mary Wallace. The
program was made short for that
evening to giye ample time for the
debate on the women's franchise res
olution, which was brought up week
before and waxed warm, and it was
foreseen at that meeting that at the
next it would require long stretch of
time to present the question in all its
phases and bearings. Light was
thrown on from every point, pro and
con. Eight members of the Assoela-
ton stepped into the forensic arena
and slashed right and left with the
two-sdged sword of logic and wit,
two of the number being lady men,
bers, who put forward the ablest ar
guments, proving that they are fully
competent to hold their own against
odds in a debate as we'll as in other
battles of life, and this had its weight
with the audience. After the clos
ing of the arguments the resolution
was put to vote of the entire house
and rousing majority was given to
accord women all the rights OF iran
chise accorded to men. The sublec'
for debate next Tuesday evening Is
" Resolved, That sel6shness is thf
motive of all human action" Inc
full program will be given in Tues

GIANT POWDER ExpLos.or-
GRAHAM, Jan. 8. 1894


Ed, WoRLD:-What came nearly
proving fatal accident to several Of
our citizens occurred here New Year
eve. a lot of the boys had conare-
gated together to watch the old wear
out and the new one in, and as the
New Year was about to make his ad ].
vent they resolved to give him
welcome with grand salute of p;ant
powder, shot-guns, &c. A quantity
OF powder was taken into the saloon
OF ohanahan & Stanley for the pur-
pose OF thawlng it out, when it caught
hre and raised a commotion anon ost
'he visitors, who started for places of
safety, taking doors and windows
with them as they went. Others
grabbed up some of the powder and
threw 1t into the streets, when a ter
rinie explosion took place. George
stuck, happening to be within few
feet, was hurled into the air and
picked up insensible, bleeding from
the ears, mouth and nose, and, with
considerable effort on the par. of
friends who cared for the sufferer, is
now able to recognize his friends, and
all right, except good shaking up.
Several others were more or less in
jured.
The explosion occurred about
midway in the street fronting Curtis
Hall and McDevitt's butcher shop.
The report was heard for miles. The
fronts of the several buildings on
Main street, Mrs. Banwell's lodging
house, McDevitt's butcher shop, the
building next on the north, and
Curtis Hall, were more or less dam
aged in the way of broken sash and
windows. All the boys congratu-
lated themselves that it was not
worse, and all are suffering from a
genuine dose of giant powder head
ache. GRAHANITE.

SILVER Cry AvALANcHE: One
night last week the miners in the
south drift of the Orc Fino lode, put
in a shot IN the face of the drift, and
Immediately heard the rushing OF
water and started on a go-as-you-
please race for the ladder in the shaft
of the Orc Fino, the last of whom had
ascended but to the fourth round,
when looking down he beheld a
stream of water four feet deep run
ming into the shaft beneath him. The
bows got to the surface as soon as
possible, and found that they had
climbed none too fast as the water II
the shaft had followed them closely
and had risen to the second level
This water must have come from the
Ida Elmore lode, into which the MI
ners had broken. The water is nov
being pumped out, exposing lode o
good milling ore in the Ida Elmort
mine. We understand that the work
men had left the Orc F'ino lode tt
the left Of the drift. 1t is expected
that the mine will soon be relieved o
water. when, we understand, the orr
shown up in the Elmore will be ex
tracted.
