There are rumors that negotiations
are pending tor the contamination Of
the bedrock flume enterprise in Warrens.
and that 1t may possibly be inaugurated
this season. The building of the wagon
road should give the movement a great
impetus in the right direction.

There is good deal of grumbling in
some quarters about the way the horse
round up was conducted this spring, and
the parties who had it in charge are &C
cused of jamning stock and getting
away with all the slick ears in a very
high handed manner. Personally we
know nothing of the facts, and we do
not believe it good subject for news
the proper tribunal for the preferment
and discussion of such charges.
Mrs. Hall, who is teaching in district
No. 8, reports very fine school of fifty
one pupils, and an enterprising and
appreciative district. The trustees and
also the parents of pupils, manifest their
interest in the progress of the school by
frequent visits. Some children from
adjoining districts attended for time
but owing TO lack of Accommodations the
trustees were compelled to prohibit their
attendance. Mrs. Hall is engaged for a
six months term, three this spring, and
three next fall.
Company G on Tuesday night voted
unanimously for Capt. Jenne, of Co. b.
for Lieutanant colonel. and for Capt.
Beck, OF Co. G, for Major of the Idaho
Guards. These are the ranking Cap
tains, and Go. 9, voted for them unani-
mously under section z, Rules and regu-
latious, s,which prescribes that the service
shall conform as nearly rs possible to
that of the u. S. regular army, where
ranking officers take precedence in pro-
motions. The resignation of Capt.
Boomer therefore made Capt's Jenne
and Beck the ranking Captains.
There are some queer people in this
wicked world. For years we haye been
looking forward TO the completion OF
the Salmon river wagon road as a sort
OF millennium or year of jubilee, and 10,
now that the road is about to become a
fixed and certain fact, we hear rumors
OF complaints and grumbings that the
road will benefit the Weiser side more
than IL will Camas Prairie. We have
also heard people on the Weiser side
object to the building of the road be-
cause Camas Prairie would get the most
benefit from its construction 'ris eyi-
IDENTIFY a very mad world, my masters.
