Journal: For several years Ka-
naka, or Sandwich Islander has
lived with his family near Salmon
Falls in a dug-out. Capt. Maintop,
as he was called, is totally blind,
and last week his wife died, and the
blind man being all alone and dis
tant from neighbours, was found try
ing to bury his dead companion.
He speaks broken English and Of
fered $50, all the cash he had, to
have his wife properly buried. Ow-
ing to his helpless condition the
neighbors raised a purse and Mr.. J.
8. Hunt took the poor old man 70
the Methodist home in Portland
this week. Capt. Maintop was con-
verted by missionaries many years
ago and had not only been . preach
er himself, but captain Of a boat.
He was born about ten years after
Captain Cook was killed by the
natives.
Caldwell Tribune: When our
solons were making laws to protect
the fish in our streams, they over
looked a serious defect. When wa
ter is turned into the irrigating
bitches the fish run up these bitches
in regular schools, only to perish
by thousands. The bitches are full
Of them. More fish are destroyed
by one big ditch than by all the
dynamite and seins put together,
yet there is no provision requiring
ditch companies to put a screen
across their headgates to prevent
the fish from swimming up.
| Citizen: A petition has been cir
culated here and signed by all our
leading men to demonstrate against
the removal of Chief Justice Weir.
"a party of young men passed
through here the other day bound
for the Seven Devils mines. Their
names were Benz. and R. F. Head,
N. .. Pettibone, Geo. N. Durham
and J. r. Rendol, all of Sciota, Ill.
This party of young bloods left
their homes and seyeaal occupa-
tons early this spring on a wild
goose chase, partly to see and get a
taste of the wild West" and part
ly to learn something of mining
and prospecting. They had been
down in Mexico and came this war
on their way home. They seemed
to be a very civil set of young men
and will undoubtedly do we'll here
in Idaho if they como to stay and
follow mining
Idaho Herald: Pocatello is over
run with tramps. Constable Jim
Seaman and Watchman John Hall
have been making nightly raids
upon them and running in from
fifteen to twenty every night. There
is no means of Furnishing them
other than sending them to Black
foot for 80 days in Jail. There
should be some provision made 70,
the welfare of this gentry, as they
are a constant menace to the com,
munity, and it is a wonder thai
burglary or other crimes are moi
committed more frequently. Onl,
the other evening an attempt wa,
made to hold up one of our citizens
at the water tank, but he succeeded
in getting away by display of pc
destrianism that would have turned
a professional sprinter green with

THE Ketchum KEYSTONE is after the
official scalp of Probate Judge Lennon
for being absent from the territory for
more than ten days. The law does not
give the board of county commissioners
authority TO grant the Probate Judge
leave of absence. The Office will proba.
bly, be declared vacant.--Avalanche
Others of our exchanges have had
paragraphs similar to the above,
but neither Of the papers at the
county seat have had anything to
say upon the subject. We should
have thought that at least the legal
adviser of the board of county COM
missioners would have arisen to
explain by what authority the COM
missioners had granted leave of alb
sence to the Probate Judge, permit
ting him to leave his office and alb
sent himself from the territory, TO
return to his post of duty when it
suited his convenience. The com
missioners have disregarded the
petition filed, praying that the Office
might be declared vacant, and the
matter has been appealed to the dis
trict court. The Probate Judge of
Alturas county is allowed a salary,
besides his regular fees, of 1920
per annum, and it is a matter of no
small consequence to the taxpayers
of the county to know whether that
officer is to be allowed to absent
himself from his duties with impu-
nifty, when it is contrary to the ex-
press provisions of the law.

THE promise of an unusually
early spring is not being fulfilled.
Although the snow has been of
some time the hill sides are not as
green as they usually are SO near
the first of May The prospects
now are that they will be much
browner all summer than is pleas
ant to see, unless we have great
deal more rain. The wild flowers
are small and stunted in appear
ance, and the hills are so dusty that
there is not much pleasure in gath
ering them. After all, there is some
compensation in the deep SHOWS
that have visited us other years,
they make the summer vegetation
so much more luxurious.

MINING NOTES.

1t is reported upon good author
ity that w. d. Vernam, formerly
manager Of several well-known
mining properties at Sswtooth, be-
longing to New York parties, is ex-
pected upon the ground soon to
renew operations. Mr.. Vernam has
not lost faith in the ultimate sue
cess Of the mines in the Sawtooth
country, and we hope that when he
again appears upon the scene Of his
favorite mining camp he will be
prepared to stay with it.
John Madison left Ketchum last
Wednesday loaded with freight for
the Silver King mine. He expects
to commence hauling ore from the
King mine to the Ketchum Samp-
ling Works Immediately.
Late news received from Vienna
states that. the explorations now
being made in the works of the vi
emma mine are exceedingly cncour-
aging, and the prospects Of opening
up another rich ore chute in this
noted mine is daily expected. From
the same source of information we
learn that the Solace mine, near the
Vienna, which is being worked un.
der alease by Jacobs, Davis & Boil
lew, is constantly improving and
ore is being extracted valued at from
GOO to 800 ounces silver per ton.
The arrival Of Manager Chisholm,
of the Alturas- Senate Consolidated
Mining Company, is looked for at
Galena soon. 1t is the intention
Of this company to resume active
work upon their properties some
time during May.
The lessees of the Olympia mine
are busily engaged jigging their
second-class ore at the Buzzo works.
We understand that the concentra-
tons produced are entirely salts
factory. They will commence ship
ping their first-class ore and con-
centrates to the Ketchum Sampler
next week.

can be produced and backed by
sufficient proof, then perhaps Judge
Weir's official head may go the
block, otherwise President Harri-
son will hesitate before he makes a
removal, upon the ground as to his
ability to remove a district Judge
whose terms are for four years and
thereafter until their successors are
appointed.

THE boomers who have been
waiting for months to get into the
Oklahoma country, rushed in and
took possession at noon last Mon
day, much more peaceably than it
was expected they would. Two
men were killed on that day, one
shot down in cold blood, on very
slight provocation, the other, the
murderer, wss shot by the vigilance
committee while resisting arrest.
At noon the town of Guthrie was
an insignificant station, surrounded
by a barren plain, by night it was
an incorporated town with 1900
inhabitants, streets laid out and
named, bank and land office do

houses going up, which had been
taken in sections ready to put to-
gether, the first issue of a daily

held and the new officers sworn in

accomplished within six or seven
hours; something unprecedented

HOLIDAYS.

There will be two holidays next
week-Monday and Tuesday. Mon
day will be Arbor Day, made legal
holiday for this territory by an act
Of the 18th session of the legislature
of Idaho. The act provides that
the last Monday in April shall be
set aside as day in which it is
recommended that every one shall
plant one tree, or shrub at least,
and as many more as is convenient,
and that the day shall be especially
observed by the public schools,
when, after appropriate exercises,
the children shall plant trees or
flowers, with suitable cerem onies, to
beautify the school-house grounds.
Many other states and territories
observe Arbor Day, but not all on
the same date. owing, of course, to
diversity of climate.
Next Tuesday will be the centen-
NAL Of the day on which George
Washington was inaugurated first
President Of the United States. 1t
was made holiday for this year
by act of Congress, supplemented
by proclamation of President
Harrison, dated April A, 1889, "to
the end that the people of the whole
country may join in commemora-
tive exercises appropriate to the
day, in order that the Joy of the
occasion may be associated with
deep thankfulness in the minds o.
all the people for all our blessings
in the past and devout supplicatior
for their gracious continuance in
the future" The President recon.
mends that on Tuesday, April Both
ct the hour of 8 o'clock in the
morning, the people of the entire
country repair TO their respective
places of divine worship to implore
the favor Of God that the blessings
of liberty, prosperity and peace may
abide with us as people, and that
His hand may lead us in the paths
of righteousness and good deeds
