convicted during his term, and no
doubt did as much if not more than
any one man in Idaho, to crush Nor
monism in this Territory.
1t was the bold and aggressive
stand he took against the Mormon
hierarchy that made him so conspic-
uous in the politics of the Territory,
and when the Republican leaders
came to look around for a standard
bearer they naturally selected him
as the most available man in the
party. He was made a candidate
for Delegate to the Fiftieth Con
gress by both Republicans and anti
Mormons, and received 7S42 votes
against 7416 votes for John Haley
Democrat. This was considered q
great victory, more especially as the
Mormons were completely "snowed
under" Mr.. Dubois was re- elected
to the Fifty-6rst Congress over James
II. Hawley and Judge Buck, which
position he held until legislated ou
of Office by the admission Of Idaho
into the Union of States.
1t is safe to say that Idaho ha.
never had a more energetic and in
huential Delegate than Fred 7. Du
bois. The intimate personal rela
tons existing between Senator Cul
lon, Farwell and Representative
Spricger (who was chairman Of tn,
Committee on Territories and Mr.
Dubois, has secured us many favor
in the way of appropriations, sur
veys and increased mail facilities
that we might not have otherwise
enjoyed. He was helpful in tn,
highest degree in preventing our dis
memberment, and Idaho to-day owe
him debt of gratitude for preserv.
ing her integrity. His record during
his time in Congress is one that he
can point to with pride and plsasu e

The world is getting wiser every day.
Mankind is constantly advancing from
the old to the new. AsIt is with Reli-
giOn. Art and Science, SO It is with Me-
dicine. Each day adds to our knowledge
of the human body, and therefore to our
ability to cure its many ills. The day Of
gripping, purging. debilitating pills, for
instance, is rapidly passing away, and
their place being taken by Bowel Re-
gulatOr whose action is natural and easy
yet effective. Such a medicine is Man-a-
lin, gentle laxative that acts directly
upon the Liver and Kidneys, and leaves
no bad effects. It neither gripes nor
purges. 1t not only cures Constipation,
but, all the disorders and diseases aris-
ing from it, and. when taken from time
to time in small doses, prevents Consti-
patton altogether. If you need Tonic,
take Pe-ru-na. II your Blood is diseased.

The congressional convention which
renominated Col. S. NJ. Robertson. which
was controlled by the Farmers, adopted
the following resolutions:
We demand the abolition Of national
banks at as early day as practicable,
and in lieu Of national banks notes the
government shall issue legal tender tre-
asury notes in sufficient volume to do
the business of the country OH cash ba-
sis, and all money so issued shall be le-
gal tender for all debts, both public and
private.
We demand that Congress shall pass
laws that will efectually prevent future
dealing in agricultural products, except
in case of actual delivery. Adopting such
rigid procedure in trials as will secure
prompt conviction and punishment of
all violations,
We indOrse The sub-treasury or ware
house plan as a means of relief to the
agriculturist within the scope of the con-
stitution, and urge ,he nominee OF this
convention to advocate such legislation
as may permit the graduated sales of our
products.

The Thimblc History.

Lady, did you ever take the trouble to
look up the history Of The curious little
bell-shaped indented piece of metal you
wear on your finger when sewing and
which you are cOntended 10 call your
"thimble:" Ii IS Dutch Invention, and
was taken to England in 1895 by one
John Lofting Its name was derived
from the words thumb ard bell, being
for long time worn on that member,
and call the thumbel; only within
the last $50 years has the word "evolut-
ed" into thimblc All records says that
the thimble was iirst worn en- the thumb,
but we can scarcely conceive how they
would be Of much use there. Formerly
they were made of brass and iron only,
but of late years steel, silver, gold, horn,
ivory, celluloid, and even pearl and
glass have been used.-Ex.
