Of the old fashioned gentlemen OF

He was beloved by every one, aud
bis influence in the little town was
great, 90 good aud so active was

gave to a young friend is well
worth something.
A young man Of the village had
been badly insulfed and came TO
Father Graham full of angry in.

going at once to demand an apol.

My dear boy Father Graham
said, take a word of advice from
an old man who loves peace: An
insult is like mud il will brush of

a little, till you and be are both
cool, and the thing is easily mend.

IL is pleasant to be able to add
that the young man took his adj
vice, and before the next day was
done the insulting person came to
beg forgiveness.

The H'ciser Country.

\ letter from our old friend Sol NJ
Jrffreys. of Weiser Idaho, speaks in very
encouraging terms OF the favorable de-
velopement Of the resources of that parl
of Idaho in the near future. lie says
that the new school house and Odd Fell
lows hall, both brick buildings. are
about completed and add much 10 the
appearance of the town Of Weiser. He
says further that the outlook for an ex-
tensive building boom the coming season
in the same town is very flattering, and
that from the amount of rain and snow
they have had this winter they antici-
pate good crops. There IS also n good
prospect OF railroad being built up the
Weiser river next summer to tap the
Seven Devils country, which will be the
greatest copper camp in the world when
provided with adj qrate transportation
aud reduction facilities.
There has been plan suggested iy
Gov. Shoup and endorsed by the sur
vey or-general to enlarge the irrigation
system of the territory, With Washing
ton county rs the experimental county
in " hich to make the test The pan is
to seek certain unoccupied lands in that
county to he utilised for the purpose OF
construct ng reservoirs and bitches. said
lands to belong to tho county and to De
sold or bonded by the county as occasion
demands the reclamation OF the arid
land4. This, how ever, is an affair more
properly within the jurisdiction of the
general government.
What Weiser needs as much as any
thing is IA new court house. The present
public building is nothing but "A bed-bug
ranch and is a positive disgrace to n
wealthy and growing county like WASH
ington. There lie u great future in store
for that part of Idaho, for Washington
and idaho counties are the very best
portion of the territory and contain a
greater variety and diversity of resour-
ces. than any other section. The Weiser
valley is the most productive in the ter
ritory and lis soil is nearly as fertile as
that OF our own Camas Prairie.

exercised ordinary prudence
and judgment in this matter
he would have saved u lot of
needless expense to the tax
payers of Idaho county. Judge
Sweet could have saved us that
expense bya little forethought.
AS it is, we are made to pay for
his errors of judgment, The
issue is so plain and unmis-
taxable that no injection of
political jugglery or partisan
misrepresentation can be per-
mitted to confuse it. AS pub

public patronage for support,
the FREE PRESS owes allegiance
to the public, and when it
ceases to defend the public
interests from imposition, and
the public treasury from at
tempted pillage, then we hope
that this journal will quickly
lose the public confidence and
support and make way for a
more trustworthy mouthpiece.
