OK last Sunday afternoon the In
dians of Lemhi agency, with some of
their red brethren from Fort Hall,
who were visiting them, had sham
battle. The exhibition took place
ON the fiat this side of the high bridge,
and was participated in by about 500
warriors. Three different battles
were fought. In the first two, the
charge and the skirmish, the Indians
were mounted, while in the last, a
fight in close quarters, the warriors
were on foot. This lighting was just
the same as real battles IN every par
ticular, even to robbing aud scalp
ing the dead, an exhibition of which
was given that made the blood of the
spectators run cold.-Salmon City
Recorder.

MICHIGAN is q fifth state in which
the farmers have deserted their old
political parties and formed q new
one on their own account, with
ticket regularly in the field. The
platform of the Michigan Farmers
Alliance party embodies the radical
changes proposed by that body
elsewhere, among other measures
the abolition of national banks and
the issuance of currency by govern
ment, which is also to take control
Of railroads and telegraphs. The
unlimited coinage of silver is de-
manded. The most sweeping meas
ure of all. however, is the resolution
demanding that both the president
and the senators shall be elected by
direct vote Of the people.

Kansas is nothing il not vigorous.
From the time of the free state
troubles till now when a c;tlz IN
of Kansas has acted or spoken his
meaning has never been a matter of
doubt. At present Kansas is a
prohibition state stirred to its depths
by the original package trade. In
connection with the prevailing agita-
ton q Kansas editor of the town of
Washington thus warns some fellow
sinners:
To All Whom 1t Way Concern, Greet
Ing: II about twenty-five good male
members of churches 10 this town don't
quilt their abuse OF the editor of this
paper he will feeri to be his duty, long
neglected. to expose the fact to the public
that they are not only frequenters of
places where Intoxicating liquors are
sold, but are the patrons of boot leggers,
etc. We mean business. No more
money business goes.

The last state census of Massa-
chusetts shows curious situation.
There Is noteworthy increase in
the value of agricultural products
the state over, while in the purely
agricultural districts there ia a
remarkable decline in the popula-
ton.
The apparent discrepancy is ad-
justed in an odd way. The next
: fact the reader observes is no less
strange. 1t is that the agriculture
products of Massachusetts, are most
valuable near Boston and the largest
cities. 1t means that the Massa-
chusetts agriculturist has abandoned
general farming and gone into truck
and dairy farming in the vicinity
of the large towns. He can no
longer compete with the west in
hay, corn and wheat, but he can
still make living and a good one
as market gardiner aud dairyman.
So he raises vegetables, has acres
under glass for early growths, and
sends to the market small fruits,
lettuce, peas, cucumbers aud sweet
corn.
The change is a good one all
around. The more fresh fruits and
vegetables the inhabitants of cities
can get the better for them, and the
more of such they obtain the more
they will want. 1t is thus the
eastern farmer can regain his lost
foothold. He is changing his
methods to suit the changed times,
aud winning prosperity back with
strawberries, early vegetables and
gilt edged Jersey butter.

"But don't think you're the kind of

II agree with you exactly" said my
wife.

by a couple of baby screws. If these
