ONE OF THE "SEvEN.v

The Hon. I. c. Sargent, of Burke
Idaho. one Of the heroic seven who
made such an able fight for Alturas
county in the lower House, came in
from Boise to-day, In company with
Hon. w. Y. Perkins, whom Mr..
Hagan, the eminent counsel against
us in the division suits, has almost
immortal'zed by endeavoring to ridi.
Guile him as the "Prince Rupert of the
Council"
Mr.. Sargent felt very i'll in Boise,
unable to stand either its peculiar
climate or impure water, and was
prevailed upon to come here to re-
main until he shall be required to
appear in court in Boise. Mr.. Sar.
gent is mining man whom neither
threats, money nor cajolement can
swerve from what he deems to be the
right, and when he finally concludes
to take stand it is to 'stay." There
is no doubt that it was largely due to
his staying qualities that such good
fight was possible for old Alturas.
But Mr.. Sargen. and our other friends
from other counties, while admitting
that Alturas was too exte nsve, claimed
that it would be we'll nigh ruinous to
impose three sets of officials upon the
taxpayers of Alturas county at pres
cnt. And, once he took that stand,
no power ON earth could move him.
All honor to him and those who
acted with hun! AS the years roll by
and they progress toward that bourne
whence no traveller returns, they will
have the proud consciousness OF
having performed their duty--and
nothing but their duty-a. a most
critical period in the history of one
OF the most active and progressive
communities in the world.

-These must be proud days for
Parnell, the leader of the Irish
Nationalist. After years of en-
deavors, backed by all the influence,
wealth and power of (next to the
United States) the greatest nation on
earth, his enemies seemed about to
succeed in destroying him when, just
at the last moment, as it we're, the
prosecution breaks down, and the
noble 1rshman is proved to have
been the victim of one of the foules,
conspiracies which has disgraded the
History of England.
Mr.. Parnell has right to feel
elated at his vindication--not only
because it will bring him much-need-
ed rest and respect, but because i,
will hasten the emancipation oil
Ireland, which is the cause for which
he has been battling so courageously
and perseveringly.

4 FAITHFUL AND CAPABLE PUB.
Lie SERVANT.

Hon. William Y. Perkins, the
"Prince rupert" OF the Council, ar
rived to-day from Boise, and only
fingered in town about Is minutes !;
after which he left for Camas Prairie
to see his family, whom he had not
met since tho holiday recess. He
was hard.pressed TO remain; but very
properly fastened home.
During the memorable legislative
session which has just ended, Coun-
Gilman Perkins was the leader of the
Council. His sway was undisputed
even by those who would have des-
troyed Alturas county. Always in
his seat during hours, hard at work in
the committee rooms between sit
tings, or in the Territorial Library
reading up on some subject to come
before the Council, the Hon. w. Y.
Perkins was the most industrious
member Of the body OF which he was
part. From the start he labored
indefatigably for Alturas county, and,
with rare foresight, did not wait uu-
til the hostile forces were arrayed to
put forth his best efforts. Knowing
that the most effective work is always
at the beginning of a fight, he was no
sooner elected than he began work.
ing for the election of the Hon. J. P.
Clough as President of the Council.
Mr.. Perkins did this without exacting
any pledge from Mr.. Clough, because
he knew him to be an honorable,
broad gauge man who could be
trusted. The result. proves that Mr..
Perkins's judgment was right, and
it may almost be said that, right there,
the basis for victory was laid. But it
was later, when the fight was son."
and the ,allying-cry of the baffled
divisionists became "Down with Al.
tnras!" that MIR. Perkins's ability
shone with greatest lustre. Indefati-
gable, incompatible, and schrewd, no
SOB" could be sprung, no move
made against us without his knowl.
edge and without his being ready to
make counter move to offset it.
A thorough master of parliamentary
law, no unfair advantage could be
taken OF the rules while he was on the
door; and as he was always present
during sessions. he stood as an i'm.
movable wall between his constitu.
ents AMI their wouli-be destroyers.
Since the adjournment OF the ses.
sion Mr.. Perkins has been compelled
to remain in Boise, to see that the
crime which he worked SO hard to |
prevent should not prevail. And he
will return again at the call Of duty,
rs soon as needed.
The four'sfths of the people Of
Alturas county who are opposed to
division must not fail to remember
the important services rendered by
the Hon. William y. Perkins; and, if

Is not the Allegheny region great

Eyes, indeed. It's from that quarter
that the West and North are chiefly
supplied. Chestnuts can be transported
thence more promptly than from yir-
ginia to Chicago, which is the main dis.
tributing center for the Northwest. But
when the Allegheny crop fails Chicago
sends its buyers to Norfolk, and prices
rise with the demand for the Virginia
product. The crop in Massachusetts
and New Hampshire is becoming less
every year, owing to the reckless way
in which the trees are being cut down.
