THE MCKINLEY ROBBERS.

During the forepart of this week
it was reported here that the two
men who robbed Jim MCKINLEY at
Louise creek station last week had
been captured in Boise City. Such,
however, was not the fact. as may
be seen by the following from the
Statesman of the I'd instant:
Thursday night q man named
MCKINLEY was held up at the point
Of revolver by two men at Louise
creek on the Rocky Bar road, and
relieved Of 5000. The footpads,
who were afterwards discovered to
be F. Campbell and kid" Ballen-
tine, we'll known here. made good
their escape. They got horses from
the place Of David b. Ethel and
came to this city, remained a few
hours and left about four o'clock in
the morning. Sheriff Robbins was
notified but not until later was the
identity of the robbers known, or they
might have been caught here. They
went TO Nampa, shaved clean and
otherwise sought to disguise them
selves, and left on the western train.
Constable Taylor of Nampa, has
started in pursuit. The Commits.
sioners of Gilmore county have au-
thorized a reward of 500. Camp,
bell at one time lived here, and
posed as an alleged detective. He
gained an unsavory notoriety from
his queer connection with the at.
tempted robbery Of the safe of Hol.
lister, Bishoprick & Co.. for which
Harry A. Cramer was sentenced for
three years imprisonment at the
March term of court in 1889.
Mr.. Ethell's horses Lave been re-
turned TO Pine Grove. they having
been turned loose near Boise by the
robbers.

The Idaho Mail is full of bitter
abuse of Commissioners Stockton
and Cavanah, because they did not
Immediately do its bidding and call
special meeting of the Board to
act upon the removal Of the records.
Messrs. Ethel and Stockton, at the
last meeting Of the Board unani-
mously agreed that there was no
law authorizing them TO issue an
order for removal, and nothing
since has transpired to justify them
in changing their opinion, yet the
Mt. Home people have squirted the
soup into Uncle Dave by telephone
and the Mail now asserts that ID.
b. Ethel says he wants a special
meeting and favors removal at once"
Under all the circumstances this
seems like child's play on the part
of Mr.. Ethel, If he is quoted cor
rectly. Fact is the Mt. Home poo
pie desire to throw the expense Of
litigation upon the county-which
will be the case should the Com
missioners order removal. But as
the matter now stands the expense
Of litigation would fall upon the
people of the two towns. The Mail
claims that the opinion Of the At.
torney General ia in favor Of re-
moval. Now we have il through
undoubted source that General
Johnson asserts that the election
for county seat was entirely illegal
that as the qualifications for voter.
were different, there should have
been two ballot-boxes. However a!
Mr.. Ethel has been prevailed upo,
to cause the county to incur the ex
pense Of a special meeting, thu
Board will meet here next Monda,
TO again consider the matter, ant
I'VE shall see what we shall see.
Probably it would be a good ide'
for them TO remain in perpetual SEES
sion to the end Of the term in orde
to calm the vilifiers of Cavanah an.
Stockton and TO give Uncle Dave
rest away from the ''helo' machine

GOV. sHoUP's ANNUAL REPORT


The last annual report Of Cover
nor Geo. l.. Shoup TO the Secretary
of the Interior, which was finished
and forwarded to Washington few
days since, is an exceedingly able
and exhaustive resume Of the con-
dition of Idaho, says the Statesman.
The excitement of the late political
campaign TO some extent prevented
the Governor from securing such
! full information and statistics on
some subjects as he desired.
AS shown by the report the as
sed value of the taxable property in
the State is s25,5Si ,305. The
bonded Indebtedness amount s146,-
715.06. and the registered indebted
ness 500, 552. %; total $239, 267 .35.
There is balance from several diff
ferent funds, amounting TO $685.
SCALP.
On the 30th day of June, 1890,
there were in operation in Idaho
947.17 miles of telegraph lines, as
sessed at $7l 1877 so. At the same
date the total railway mileage was
941.27, with an assessed valuation
of 5000, 266.05. There are in
Idaho 100 church edifices valued at
s3S9, 400, and with a membership
Of 12,47l. The gain during the
year was 81 churches, valued at
s16S, 900 and 1884 new members.
In the way of secret and benevolent
societies the State boasts of 10 Masonic
lodges with s34 members, 81 lodges VI
Odd Fellows with 1861 members, Ia
lodges A. o. u. W. with $50 mbers,
i knights Of Labor, IL lodges, 800 mem.
beers, and one lodge OF knights oil
Honor has 80 members. There are
/ SO branches of the w. G. T. u. with q
numerical strength of 600, five oi
| Good Templar- with 200 members, and
two OF the Catholic knights of Amer.
/ ica with 30 members. Eighteen Grand
j Army Posts have 442 comrades and
! there is one Camp Sons Of Veterans
with 80 members.
The agricultural lands OF the State
comprise some l6.000,0 600 acres, three.
fifths of which are arid, and must be
/ irrigated to make them productive.
Thirteen OF the eighteen counties in
the State are in the arid belt. Gov
Shoup recommends in relation 10 the
public lands and irrigation questions
that all the arid lands be turned over
10 the State, which could then con.
tract for the construction of largo Ir.
rigating canals. The sale OF lands
rendered productive by these canals
would in time reimburse the State Tor
tho money expended. The Governor
also recommends that all the timber ia
Idaho be also placed under the control
OF the State government, so that laws
can be enacted providing for foresters
10 protect the timber from fire and
other depredations.
Touching upon the stock interests
the report says that IL will take all the
natural Increase Of cattle and horses to
cover the losses 81 the previous severe
winter. The owners have learned 4
lesson from their past experience, and
such losses will not occur again.
Il Mining interests. which are greatly
fiourishing, are treated at length in
the report.

We are sorry TO learn that the
Denver ore purchasers have been
cheating the Idaho miners. That
is another proof that if the railroads
did not discriminate against Salt
Lake City the Idaho miners could
sell their ores here where our ore
purchasers are strictly honest men
When that discrimination makes
it necessary for men 10 deal with
each other at long distances, il ia
natural for the long-distance buyer
TO take advantage of the unsuspect.
ing miner. 1t is bad business all
around. For the sake of the Idaho
miner we bespeak a good word for

Senator Quay's order of business,

postpOning the force bill until next

has produced a split in the party that
will not easily heal. Quay is beng

Mckinley faction who have been
swearing they would pass the force
bill if they had to continue congress
in session until November. Reed
got raging mad at Quay and came

Republican senators backing Quay
are Aldrich, Allen, Cameron, Davis,
Dixon, Hale, Hiscock, Jones, McMil-
Ian, Mitchell, Paddock, Pettigen,
Power, Squire, Stockbridge, Tedler

enough with the Democrats to defeat

while this is the state Of affairs at

Animal INSTINCT.

Nature gives an interesting account of
an incident illustrative of animal instinct
which recently took place in Scotland.
The supply of water from neighboring lake
had been interfered with for ten successive
nights On an examination being made
each morning a number of cells were dis
covered in the sluce, where the water was
ten feet deep. Thirty altogether were
found, all females. One of these, thirty
two inches long and about two pounds in
weight, was examined. The ovary, which
was about twelve inches long in stu, and
about thirty inches long when unrayeled,
was calculated TO contain 10,07I0OO eggs in
various stages of development. There is
little doubt that these cells formed a part
Of band migrating to the sea (the smaller
specimens escaping and the larger being
caught) and Judging from he condition OF
the oyary it would appear that they were
impelled by the instinct of reproduction.
