SENATOR GUM, of Alturas, intro
duced a bill to the effect that the
Governor may appoint the county
and precinct officers of the several
counties, who were elected by the
people at the last election, but who
failed to take the oath OF office and
file their official bonds within the time
prescribed in the Constitution. Two
other plans have been proposed-a
special election, and to pass bill
empowering the County Commission
ers in the several counties to appoint
the officers designated. The absurd
ity of an election at this season of the
year, to say nothing of the extra ex-
peuse, is apparent. To leave the ap-
pointing of the officials in the hands
of the Governor would give more
general satisfaction than either of tbs
other plans. 1t is reasonably certain
that he would appoint those who were
elected.

ECHOES FROM LITTLE saLuOy
MEADOWS.
MEADOWS, WASHINGTON Co, IDAHo, !
Dec. s, 1890.

MEADOWS, WASHINGTON Co, IDAHo, !
Dec. 8, 1890.
Ed. WoRLD:--Back from the dis
NAL realms of Rapid river; back from
the gray granite peaks Of the North
Fork rarge; back from the barren
slopes of French creek; back from
the interrninable nothingness of bar
rem reaches that stretched in desolate
vistas on every hand, the thought
lntrudes itself upon me that ought
TO Ind something about which | could
write letter that would be of inter
est to the readers of the Would, who
generally like to hear from those who
take their packs and HE away to
ramble IN the mountains. Well, nv
friends, since | saw you I'll say I'ye
seen peak or two. This with no
attempt at rhyme and no remote yuI-
gar allusIon. As for the range be-
tween the North Fork Of Payette and
Salmon waters, | don't think much Of
1t as field for prospecting. The
Rapid River country is better, but so
nearly inaccessible t..at a mine to be
of any value would have to be i'm
mensely rich, unless enough mines
could be found to justify the build
ing of road of some kind into that
country. No doubt there are miner
al deposits there that in some places
would be of value, but the country
IS awfully rough. The whole thing
seems to set on edge and it is worth
small mine to travel through 1t. AT
ter what / have seen have come to
the conclusion that Boise Basin is a
better field to prospect in than some
places | know of.
You don't seem to care much about
the North Idaho wagon road, but
think the people of Boise county
ought to look little into this matter,
as they will have about thirty miles
of this road to look after, and if | am
not mistaken it will be quite a Job in
a few years. 1t may be too late now
to help matters, but you must have
all been asleep when the Governor
was looking about for road commits
sioners.
There are two hotels building at
the big Payette lake. Jewsharp Jack
is the architectural genius Of one and
Charley Clifford of the other, SO if
any of you want to take in the glo-
ries OF the lakes, don't be afraid of
getting hungry up there.
We hear of FIVE inches of snow in
Long valley and four inches between
here and Weiser, but we have had
none here yet, except on the hills
around the valley, The people here
are not much alarmed about the
weather, as they ali have plenty of
hay. The Meadows sends one mem
ber to the incoming Legislature, MI
|. Irwin, and we expect the interests
of our section to be we'll looked af-
ter.
The decision of the Attorney Gen
eral to the effect that the officers
elected at the last election are shut
out on account of not qualifying at
the proper time is creating consider
able talk and will no doubt give some
Of them considerable of a stomach
ache. The defeated ones are enjoy
ing this opportunity to smile. Those
Bose county fellows must DE wise
beyond their years.
This is all | know now. What |
don't know I'll tell you when | come
over. H. c. T.

STRICT SUNDAY BILL.

b'1i W De introduced IN the
Idaho Legislature:
II am Informed it will be 80 bind.
ing that mills, mines and everything
must come down to church rule, even
should the shafts fill up with water OF
boilers blow up for want Of attention
AS soon as it is presented and print.
ed ] will send you copy of it,"
A preacher of Boise City writes as
follows:
Il take the liberty to send you a
blank petition which explains itself
partly. There is move cortemplat.
ed here to pass rigid Sunday law.
This would be virtual union of Church
and State. We are opposing this in
the interest of civil and religious lib.
erty, not sectarianism."
The petition quotes the words Of
eminent Americans on the separation
Of church and State. Here are the
quotations:
every man who conducts himself
as good citizen is accountable alone
to God for his religious faith, and
should be protected in worshiping
God according to the dictates of his
own conscience. George Washing
ton.
"RelIgion IS not in the purview OF
human government. Religion is es-
sentially distinct from government
and exempt from its cognizance. A
connection between them is injurious
to both. James Madison.
"Leave the matter of religion to
the family altar, the church, and the
private school, supported entirely by
private contribution. Keep the State
and the Church forever separate .
U. S. Grant.
Congress shall make no law re-
specting the establishmentof religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise there
of."-U. S. Constitution.
"My Kingdom is not of this world
"Render therefore unto Cesar the
things which are Caesars; and unto
God the things that are God's."-Je-
sus Christ.
The petition reads as follows:
ave, the undersigned, adult resi-,
dents of the State of Idaho, 81 years
of age or more, hereby respectfully,
but earnestly, petition your Honor
able Body not to pass any bill in re-
gard to the observance of the Sab
bath, or Lords Day, or any other re-
ligious or ecclesiastical institution or
rite; nor to favor any legislation that
would in any way give preference to
the principles Of any one religion
above another, or that vii! in any
way sanction legislation upon the sub
ject of religion; but that the total
separation between religion and the
State may remain complete"
This petition speaks for its elf, and
comment is unnecessary. All who
are opposed to union of State and
Church in any form whatever, of
course will sign it, and that means
that all who hold to true American
principles will put their names to the
petition. There are three petitions
in the business houses of this place
one in the WORLD office. We can
not tell you where to find either OF
the other two, as they will be moved
around from one house to another un-
til every one has an opportunity to
put his name down in opposition to a
proposed virtual union of State and
Church. You will have no trouble
to find one of these petitions by
making inquiries. Que will remain
in this Office.

Ben MILLER, Foreman OF the Vol
VERNE mine, was brought in from
Banner last Wednesday to be doc
tored. He was forcibly struck on the
forehead and nose, without auy pro-
vocation. The assault was wholly
unjustifed and unexpected by Ben,
who is peaceable citizen. 1t was
thought at first that the bridge of his
nose was broken, but DR.. Zipf pro-
nounced it sound. Ben was on the
200 foot level of the mine, at the sta
tion, and it was the evident intention
of his assaiaRt to knock him down
the shaft, 800 feet, but the attempt
failed. No arrests have yet been
made. His assallant is named 5
Cage, who has heretofore attended
strictly to his own business and both
cred nobody. His full name is Safety
Cage. Ben knew it was about time
for Cage to come down, and hearing
no noise concluded to look up the
shaft, but as he poked his head ou'
the cage got there and came IN con
tact with his face. Ben has no II
feelings toward Mr.. Safety Cage, a
| the assault was unprecedented.
