Special TO the Standard.

Special 20 the standard.
Boise, Idaho, Sept. l3.-To-night the
anti-Dubois wiag Of the republican party
held a meeting in the opera house here.
Though this is by all odds the strongest
and most respectable faction Of Idaho re-
publicanism, and though every effort had
been made previously to secure good
attendance the crowd was very small.
All the prominent members Of the fac
ton were on the platform. Efforts TO
arouse enthusiasm succeeded 10 very
limited extent.
Colonel Pride's cohorts paraded the
streets, shot of ilre-crackers, beat drums
and shouted for Mcconnell.
The speaking was done by W. j. Nc
Connell, candidate for the United States
senate against Representative Dubois.
Captain Gum urged the claims Of re-
publicanr to support because a duty had
been pla, ed on lead ore and silver had
risen in price.
The truth Of the matter was neither
gentlemen cared n cent whether the
listeners voted the democratic or republi.
can ticket.
Mcconnell is determined TO defeat Dti.
bois at any cost and he is not sure he
could do IL IL the state should elect re.
publican legislature.
The democrats are daily becoming more
confident. They will undoubtedly carr,
Ada county by a good majority. En-
couraging news comes from every par, oI
| the state. The democracy is growing Ia
strength rs the campaign advances. To
night Hon. Alexander Mayhem aud th,
candidate for state senator in Aeturas
county strong auti-Dubois man,
spoke as the representative OF the work
ingman. Both gentlemen made able
speeches, eulogizing the constitutional
convention for framing constitution
which was largely the work Of democrats
Neither one, while supporting the rcpub
lcan side Of the issue, had wnrd to sa,
in commondation Of Dubois or Shoup.
The farmers name was indeed no
once mentioned throughout the entir'
evening. Mcconnell modestly told o.
his own Sharc in the work OF making
Idaho a state sud framing the constitu
ton and urged his listeners To vote tb'
republican ticket.
| Ex-Congressman Haley addressed tn,
electors II Caldwell. The republican
there are not pleased at the Wyoming
vote. The Salt Lake Tribune and local rc
publican ,apers here state the Mormon
voted the republican ticket in Wyoming
At the same lime they charge the demc
crats of Idaho with consorting with Moi

He assisted in forming a Black Hills

Western Geology.

Major Powell, director Of the Uulted
States Geological survey, has an inter-
esting article in March number of the
Century magazine on the irrigable lands
of the west. There is no man who has
made this subject Especial study orcol-
lected as much valuable data relating
thereto as this gentleman. He CLASH
fes the country lying between the Mis-
sippi and the Pacific colst into the ar
id and sub-arid regions. He demon
strates clearly that what is known as
the arid west is becoming known to be
the richest, the best agricultural land
in the United States. Thetwo most es-
sential things to luxuriant vegetation,
are sun light and water. In the east
tern half Of the nation, the farmers
crops are subjected to storms that beat
down and destroy with floods. Where
drouth in sub-arid regions makes a
failure in crops, too mucn wet brings
about the same result in the cast.
lnahumid country cloudy skies pre-
vail and the crops lose the benefit of
sunlight. Where irrigation is used in
arid and sub arid regions moisture is
furnished as needed, Independent Of
rains, and sunshine prevails almost
continually, thereby guaranteeing crops
every season not known to any other
agricultural region. Major Powell
gives statistics in abundance to substan-
tate his assertions, citing regions in
Colorado, California and other western
states, where farm lands are irrigated.
His Article is n of the strongest ever
written in favor of national legislation
towards aiding methods Of ilrigating
the great western plains. The soil is
there with every element needed but
moisture-and the manner of greatly
overcoming this difficulty is indicated
at length and with convincing clearness.
During his geological expeditions
over the west for over a quarter Of a
century lie notices the arid regions be-
come sub-arid with the steady encroach-
ments of civilization. The first influx
of settlers would find a rainy season an
exception and would eventually return
to the east. Another influx would take
place. and perhaps a third-but with
each immigration a few brave ones
would remain ana finally WIN prosper
lty. The only criticism a Dakotan
might offer to his essay would he his APP
parant lack of information n the new
source of irrigation now being devel-
oped in this state in the way Of big ar.

Silver on the Reservation.

C~nAMBrRlA1S SPECIAL. April 90
settler just III says that a ranchman in
the western portion of the newly
opened Sioux county was somewhat
surprised yesterday OH visiting his
ranch on Jim creek. He found that
during his absence from 1T. it had been
staked off into mining claims. and
about a dozen men were there when he
arrived, busily engaged in sinking
shafts, running tunnels and stalking
out. In some of the openings made
was found some of the richest silver
ore that has ever been discovered in the
Black Hills. The ranchman was very
angry at the claim jumpers, but his
anger has been appeased in a measure
by the d%iscoverers Of the lead Offering
to give him an equal share in their To-
cations.
