The case against Sheriff Havird was
concluded about IL o'clock Monday
night. This case was for back-fiIing Mt
Graham last year, with many others,
to save the property OF the Silver
Mountain Mining Company, as forest
fires were heading that way. About
that same time people all over the
county were back-iiring to cave prop
erty, but Havird was tho only one ar
rested. II looks, on its face. very
much like piece OF spite work. The
jury was cut just long enough TO write
a verdict, as follows 1--WE find the
defendant not guilty." II IT, s. timber
agents would look ont little more
and hunt up those guilty Of maliciously
or carlessly starting forest fires, and
exert themselves toward putting out
fires before they are beyond control,
instead OF putting the county 10
expense in prosecution, or rather per
socution cases like this one, they
would be serving Uncle Sam better
than they have done. Timber agents
were scarce in this section last year.
when they were needed, A little of
Uncle Sans money. expended ut the
right time, would have saved thou
sands upon thousands Of dollars worth
OF valuable timber. The most worth
less official in Idaho is the timber
agent. About all be is good for is TO
draw his pay for doing nothing in the
right direction Idaho World

THE PRosPECToR.

These are suspicious times for the
miner and the prospector. For years
they have labored alone and unaided,
and their reports OF strikes and rich
finds have been received by capitalists
with GOODNESS that has sent arctic
chills running through the sturdy min
er's anatomy and driven him back to
his barren camp, there TO commune
with nature and curse the policy of a
country that Disseminated against the
poor man and in favor OF England and
the Wall street broker. But il is a
"long road that never turns" and after
long period OF patient waiting the
almost disheartened miner is on top
again, and he is there to stay. From
every camp in the west we hear the
sound of pick and shovel, the reverber-
ations OF dynamite blasts and the rush
and tear of the precious ore as il leaves
the car and goes pell.mell into the ore
house below. The prospector who has
with the greatest difficulty kept up the
assessment work and maintained a
precarious living for the last five or
eight years is now the coming million
aire, for he is having no difficulty in
selling, bonding or leasing his claims.
The world now looks brighter to him,
and he begins TO feel that his dream Of
independence and wealth is about To
be realized--that the comforts and even
luxuries that have been denied him so
long: are about TO come to him. IL is
the beginning of new world, new
life; and his prosperity means the
growth and advancement OF the best
interests of the western slope, whose
environments are marked with silver
belt. Long live the miner and pros
pector, and may his pathway up the
rugged mountain sides grow smC -aer
and his "finds" richer until the whole
fraternity meet with their just reward

FOR A SUNDAY LAW,
Closing Session OF the Sabbath Reform
Association.

The final meeting of the Sabbath reform
convention was held last night at Foundry
Me. church Rev. DIR. Elliott presided and
the Introductory services were conducted by
Rev. Sheldon Jackson, ID. The first speaker,
Rev. DIR. Power gave a clear and strong argu-
ment in favor of the adoption of the bill now
before Congress- Rev. DIR. Crafts then read
the bill and spoke in support of it. He urged
the necessity for active work to combat the foes
of the American civil Sabbath. He announced
that Commissioner Douglas, who had been ex-
pected to speak, was unable to be present but
that the Commissioners had promised the meas
ure their hearty support. Representative Wick
nam OF OHIO said he was a firm believer in the
necessity for a complete separation Of church
and state, but he did think that the duty de-
yolved upon our law makers to protect the
Sabbath day.
Representative Morse said he believed in
laws for the protection of the Sabbath in the
District of Columbia. He denied that Sunday
laws were not adapted to modern needs. He
affirmed that there is no necessity for Sun
day newspaper. While the completion of n
through railroad trip on Sunday morning, the
speaker said, or the starting of late train on
Sunday night, is allowed by existing laws, and
may be considered necessary aud justifable,
yet he believed that the public would get no
harm from stopping all suburban steam cars on
Sunday and a large number of the railroad
employees would have day of rest like other
men. He also expressed the opinion that a
very large number of the horse cars, if not all
OF them, could be dispensed with without
serious detrlment.
The convention adjourned after passing a
resolution approving the bill now before Con-
gress.
At the regular meeting of local assembly
2672, X. of L., "Wednesday night, a resolution
was passed unanimously indorSing the Sunday

WILL KEEP UP THE FIGHT.
One Hundred and Twenty Democrats in
Caucus Agree to Take Kandalrs Advice.

hundred and twenty democrats attended
the House caucus last night, and they decided
to go on with their present tactics until some
rules were adopted for the government Of the
House. The note from Mr.. Randall, to which
The STAR referred yesterday, was read in the
caucus. The ex-Speaker urged a continuance
of the fight that has been carried on for the
past three days. He advised the members of
the minority to stand by their guns and to lose
no opportunity to keep the republicans from
attempting to pass on any of the contested
election cases in the absence of new code of
rules. Mr.. Randall urged the renewal of the
flibustering tactics, claiming they were
right and proper under the circumstances. He
demanded in conclusion that the democrats
should prevent any legislation being enacted
until the new code is brought in. MIR. Randall
also advised against the plan of leaving the
House III body. The reading OF the note was
received with much applause
Mr.. Carlisle informed the caucus that there
had been only three meetings of the committee
on rules The first was held January %. There
had been no meeting in the committee room.
81 have never received notice in writing" said
MIR. Carlisle, 'of meeting Of the committee
on rules since the meeting of Congress. but
was sent for by MIR. Reed and met him, Mr..
Mckinney and Mr.. Cannon in the Speakers
room at Mr.. Reeds request We discussed the
rules for about an hour and have had but two
meetings since in the Speakers room, lasting
about twenty minutes each. / have promptly
attended every meeting called. There has
been no meeting since last Monday"
MIR. Carlisle explained, as he had done in tho
last democratic caucus, what was contemplated
by the new code. He was followed by Mr..
Crisp and other parliamentarians. While some
advised caution in the proceedings of the
House the concensus of opinion favored con-
tlnuation of the fight until the adoption of
new code

that buildings Of this character will
prove to be a profitable investment

seems to be a more intelligent method Of ar
ranging interior plans, the New York apart

apartment houses, or rather those containing

that the same style of house on much larger

A Priests House Blown Up.

dastardly attempt to wreck building
with dynamite was perpetrated early Thurs
day morning in CHARTERS borough near
PittSburg. The house was the pastoral resi-
dence of Father Fleckinger of the German
Catholic church of CHARTERS and was a large
frame structure, substantially built. The
dynamite had been placed in the cellar and
fired shortly after midnight. The report of
the explosion was heard fully five miles dis
tant The force was so great that the house
was moved from the foundations, the heavy
Joists on the first floor splintered and every
window in the house shattered. Father Fleck-
niger, the housekeeper and two domestics we're

walls and ceilings remained intact they escaped.
Father Fleckinger cannot account for the
dastardly attempt on his life. He says his pas
torai relations are of the most harmonious
character, and he did not know he had an
enemy.

WAS MIDDLETON A THIEF?
An Astounding Story From Manitoba
Charges u Noted General With Robbery,

A special to the New York Herald from Of
tawa, Ont, says: A printed statement, entitled
AN appeal from the northwest" is being ac-
lively circulated among the members of parlia-
ment 1t is from settlers of Bresaylor, In the
Tar west, who claim that during the northwest
rebellion IN 1885, although they were all loyal
TO the crown, they were treated as rebels, their
goods we're looted by the soldiers, they were
refused protection and exposed to the assaults
and thievery of Indians and generally i'll
treated.
The document plainly charges Gen. Sir
FREDERICK Middleton, commander of the north
west expedition, with appropriating a large,
rich and rare stock of furs belonging to one
Bremner, for which Bremner has never been
compensated.
The appeal says: 1--WE have proof that Gen.
Middleton took these fura under the pretense
OF keeping them safe for Bremner. I've have
PROOF that these furs we're shipped by Gen.
Middleton's orders to himself and Others and
when deputation brought the matter before
the minister OF the interior we were assured
that Bremner would be paid for his furs
whether he would be paid for his other losses
or not: The matter has created profound
sensation.
