FOREST FIRES.

The whole of the best timber
belts of Idaho seem to be a blaze of
fire, and If not soon checked the
loss will be incalculable. Governor
Shoup telegraphed TO Washington
for Government aid in suppressing
these fires and he was authorized to
expend 5000 to that end. Thurs
day, John Van Schaick received a
telegram from Major Cavanah, at
Boise, saying that the Governor had
placed in his hands $50 to be used
for the purpose of checking the
spread of the forest fires in this vi
cinity, and requesting John Van to
use it to the best possible advant-
age. Though but a small sum for
such an undertaking Mr. Van
Schaick has endeavored to put this
money where it will do the most
good, and men are now fighting the
flames down ON Lincoln creek.
If we are not soon blessed with
copious rains, and these fires con-
tinue to spread, and the springs and
creeks continue to dry up, and some
of our citizens don't quit drinking
such vast quantities of Ulrich's
cold beer and thereby equalize the
consumption of all dripkable fluids,
what in the world can we do but fly
TO Jamestown or some other local
ity where water is plentiful.

POWERS VIZ. KINNEY.


Last February, Frank Powers
sued Patscy Kinney to recover Sis
due for wages--herding a large
band of sheep that Kinney, as the
sheriff Of Alturas, held under exc
cution. The case was tried before
Justice Spraeue at Mountain Home
and judgment rendered in favor Of
Powers for not only the full amount
claimed but also damages. Homer
Stull, kinneys's attorney, X. be-
ing conspicuously absent both trialsl
appealed the case to the District
Court ON the sole plea that Sprague
had no jurisdiction after the pass
age of the Gilmore and Logan bills
by tie Legislature, and Judge Weir
Inst week sustained the plea--de-
Gliding that Immediately upon the
signing Of the bill creating Elmore
county by the Governor all Justices
and other officials residing in the
i confines Of the new counties were
legislatcd out Of oilice-hence JUS
tice Spraguc had no power to try
that case or do any other official act
; legally.
II will be remembered that the
Gilmore and Logan bill was passed
and signed on the Tth of February
and that owing to restraining or.
der, afterward issucd by the Court
Gilmore county could not possibly
be organised till the 10Th day Of
March. During this interim the
Justices, Constables and Notaries
, very naturally supposed that they
were officers in and for Alturas
county. and acted accordingly
Many suits were brought by Mr.
Stull himself in the name Of Altura,
after the passage Of the Elmore bill
az the doIkets at Mountain HON,

the money collected and paid owe

Numerous Acknowledgements o
deeds were also taken by Notarici
and Justices during this interval
yet the Court has decided that thef,
: was no one qualified to legalize act
in Elmore county from the 1th o
February to the 18th day of March
and consequently every case tried
: during that time was null and void
and of course every deed acknowl
edged before n Notary Public and
bearing his Alturas seal was also
: illegal and not worth the papei
upon which the conveyance wai

CONVENTION NOTES.


Sinnott, Of Gilmore, Last Friday
offered an amendment to Section 2
of article on election and suffrage 80
that the section would read as fol-
lows: Except as in this article
otherwise provided, every citizen Of
the United States uf or over the age
Of p years. on the day of any cleo
ton, who has actually resided in
this State Tor Territory for six
months and in the county where he

preceding the day Of election, if reg
istercd as provided by law. il a

votes. Don't despair, ladies. A

presented the member from Gilmore
with n very handsome bouquet.
Congressman Burroughs of Mich
igan, in his address Ia the conven-
ton, expressed himself frciblv that
the men and women who left good
comfortable homes in the East, to-
gcther with all the pleasures and
comforts of refinement and ciyili-
zation to come 10 the wilderness Of
Idaho, and who have transformed it
into garden spot, deserve most
highly TO have their labors recog
nized by Congress in the placing Of
the star of the Mountain Gem State
in the constellation on our starry
banner. The honorable gentleman
further stated that he had seeu
many wonderful things in Idaho
and what he had heard from the
people of Idaho abont their beloved
Territory during his short stay was
even more wonderful than anything
he had read Of in the Arabian
Nights.
Our Major Cavanah has resumed
his seat, and Gilmore has reason e
rejoice thereat. He commands ths

vention and is favorite with thu

THE IDAHO coN. WINES.
Property Lying Idle that should Now
Be rs Famous a. the OphIr.


Property Lying Idle that should Now
BE as Famous A. the Ophir.
Heretofore we have mentioned in
the BULLETIN only the mining
claims that are being worked in
this section--but not all by any
means, for the reason that we can
not yet obtain their names.
There are many patented mines
in this vicinity lying idle that should
be further developed, and if the
owners (who reside elsewhere) could
only realize the vast difference in
the cost Of prosecuting work on
their claims, the expense Of reduc-
ipg their ores, the cheaper labor,
freights, etc, and the many advant-
ages to be now derived over the
hardships of six or eight years ago,
they would certainly wake up and
renew operations in their mines.
Among the many patented claims
lying idle in this vicinity, we men
ton those belonging to the Idaho
Consolidated Gold ard Silver Min
ing Company, a New York incor.
poration of wealthy men, with head
quarters at Saratoga Springs, We
believe.
As before remarked, this GROUP
Of mines are all patented claims
and designated San Jose" "Golder
Calf" "Almadcn" and "Golconda.
They are situated in what was for
merly known as "Hardscrabble min
ing district" now "Bear Creek" OF
the 0phir, Goat and Vishnue belt
not over 1900 feet from the 0phil
mine, and about mile and n hal
from Rocky Bar on direct line.
A large sum of money has beer
expended by the Idaho Consolida
ted Company, principally in tun
neling, but unfortunately the course
Of main tunnel was turned so as ts
run almost parallel with the orr
vein, and might have been contin
ued to an indefinite distance with,
out encountering the ledge-wheras
by running more directly the orr
body could have been reached al
great depth at less distance thar
the length Of the present tunnel.
Indeed we are told by expert
enced miners that the management
of the Idaho Con. property here, NJ
to the time work was discontinued
several years ago, was characterized
as ill-advised and recklessly extrav
agant-which was too often the cas-.
with many mining properties here
in the early days.
The groupings of all these loca
tions prospect equally as well al
those Of the Ophir, and there is nc
reason 10 doubt that the hedges
would prove as valuable if dcvel
oped to the same extent as is the
Ophir mine.
There is a tolerably good wager
road leading from Rocky Bar to tn,
San Jose tunnel, and there still re
mains at the old works an air com
pressor and turbine wheel, also q
good comfortable log house.
We trust that the recent rich de
velopmcnts in the Ophir mine will
have tendency to encourage tn.
Idaho Consolidated people to soor
resume operations on their mines
and if by chance any of the owners
should read this article. they viii
take the BULLETINS advice and turn
their attention this way again.

FILLING THE RESERVOIR.
MunJov Hill at Last Fully Supplied
With Water.


The reservoir on Munjoy Hill is completed.
Yesterday morning the gates were opened
for few minutes in the presence of Presi-
dent Wescott of the Portland Water Compa-
ny and Civil Engineer Shedd of Providence.
To construct this immense reservoir, it re-
quired 100000 yards of earth, 10000 yards Of
clay fuddle, 1900 yards of stone paving, and
1t employed on an average $50 men and $50
horses. 1t will cost the water company
$4,000. The work has been In charge of
II. Ii. Marden, Jr.. of this city, while the
contract work was superintendent by H. G..
Dennis. The contractor was j. j. Newman
of Providence.
The reservoir is provided with a 16 inch
main for an inlet, and could be filed In two
days, but two weeks will be taken. The
capacity is 20.0O0.OOO gallons. The overflow
is five feet below the summit, and thus keeps
the water from running over the bank.
1t Is the largest reservoir In Maine, and
one of the deepest known, having depth
OF AZ feet. The banks, which are quarter
OF Nil in circumference, are 15O feet thick
at the bottom, 80 feet at the water line, and
IL feet at the top.
Inc gates were opened at o'clock yester-
DAY, and the reservoir commenced filling.
All that remains to be done is seeding the
outside and building the fence, and most Of
the gang were taken off last night. The
work was begun in June. 1888
The gale house Is situated ON Walnut
street, but is not wholly fitted up. The
graDie blocks were supplied by Mallett, of
Freepolt. while the valves are especially de-
signed by Mr.. Shedd.
