The amount OF tobacco annually con-
sumed in the United States is estimated
by an apparently competent authority at
3l0,000,000 pounds. Seventy million
pounds are utilized in the production OF
domestic cigars; 222,OOO,OOO pounds OF
chewing tobacco and smoking tobacco
are consumed; 100000 pounds are used
in the manufacture of snuff; 100000
pounds are required in the production OF
cigarettes, and 4,OO0,OO pounds OF cigars
are imported. This would make an av-
erage annual consumption OF five pounds
for every person in the country. But as
not more than one-tifth of our popu-
lation use tobacco, it follows that those
who do, consume, on an average, % lbs.
each per annum. Opinions differ as to
whether this article should be designat.
ed luxury or necessity.

cepted and meeting, with swords, also
with full accompaniment OF seconds and

his antagonist showed herself genuine
fencer OF extraordinary skill and the re-
suit was that the affair ended when she
had wounded him in the side.

County-Seats.

There are three counties III the
state where the county-seat ques-
ton overrode all other issues-Lo-
gan, Elmore and Shoshope. In
Shoshone county the new town Of
Osburn won the prize against Wall
ace. We understand that Rocky
Bar did not intend to contest the
case with Mountain Home, but this
will probably depend upon the ac-
ton Of the courts in other cases of
the same nature. The issue be-
tween Bellevue and Shoshone in
wolves the same question of consti-
tutionality Of removal raised in the
other two counties, and when the
question is decided by Judge Beatty
on the 22d inst. it is likely to be felt
in other cases. Shoshone county
will make a determined fight and
is likely to carry it's case to the
supreme court, if necessary, on ap-
peal from the district court of the
northern counties. Whether two
thirds or a majority of the votes
be necessary to remove a county
seat, is the question at issue.

A True Pathfinder.

In little village in Oregon died
last week man whose memory ran
back to the time when this entire
Northwest was an almost trackless
wilderness. His name was William
Allen, and he was probably the
oldest pioneer of the Northwest,
having spent the greater portion of
his long life of IS years in this Sec
ton of the United States.
In 1923 he crossed the Rocky
mountains to the Red river, making
the trip entirely alone. traversing a
region the home of hostile Indians,
and encountering on the journey
many difficulties and perils. Years
after his return he saw the first
steamer which ever foatsd on its
waters ascend the Columbia river
in the early '3O's, and, as the years
went by, watched how this mighty
river became the highway for mag
nificent fleets of boats. On ground
which he first viewed covered with
the primeval forest, he lived to see
great cities spring up as it by magic.
and waterfalls he has beheld, as
natures hand had them formed
ages ago, he saw harnessed and
cribbed, and made to turn the wheels
of hundreds of mills and factories.

Silver's Decline.

The Idaho Mail accounts for the
recent decline in silver by saying the
Treasury Department had bought
the full amount for the month, and
the absence Of q demand by the
Department had caused slight
temporary decline. There is little
doubt but this is SO; but if so is it
not bad feature? Will not the
temporary decline" occur with
each succeeding month? The rem
edy for the annoying and expensive
advances and declensions in the
price of silver seems to us to be the
unrestricted coinage of that metal.
Given unrestricted coinage of silver
and it's price will at once be estab-
lished at $1.29 and stay there, be-
cause the reason for the fluctuations
now witnessed will have passed
away. The chances for speculation
off the producers of silver will also
have passed away, our mines will
be started up, silver mining will
become profitable, and will profit
those it should proft-the miner,
not the Speculation. So long as sill
yer remains subject to speculative
manipulation its price, it would
seem must fluctuate more or less !;
but give it q fixed place as a money
metal of the nation by removing all
law made restrictions from it's
coinage, and like gold, it will have
q fixed and permanent value.

Judge Mayhew's Case.

That article from the Spokesman,
which we republish, states some
facts, and makes charges that will
be difficult to refute if ever brought
before q reasonable, honest Con-
gress. It is notorious that after all
the ;clamor against the Mormons,
for several years, that they voted
the republican ticket in Idaho
everywhere within Idaho. 1t is no.
torious that an organized system of
intimidation was enforced through
out the southeastern counties by
marshals unde. every name and
disguise. IT,, S. Marshals, State
Marshals, Election Marshals-all
sorts and conditions Of officers and
deputies, real and bogus. They
were harassed on all conceivable
and uncomfortable charges, for
alleged petit offences committed
years ago, and never heard Of be-
fore. Scores Of men we're put un-
der bonds, or forced into court, for
cutting timber for private use, and
threatened with ceaseless prosecu-
ton. Registered voters, known and
respected as such, were hauled up
for voting at elections years ago.
Land Claims and water rights were
invalid. If there was ever case
Of intimidation that called for the
action Of Congress this election in
Idaho ipvokes it. A dozen demo-
cratic members have been fired out
OF the House of Representatives
during the past four months for
intimidation on much less cause,
and with little or no proof. Judge
Mayhem, Of course. can expect no
fair hearing unless his case shall
be brought before a democratic
congress, which now appears very
probable. In that case he will OBJ
fajp BIS rightful seat.
