A Tireiess Missionary,

The Fairview Farmers club are going
to discuss at their next meeting the best
way to advertise Camas Prairie. We
rise to remark that if some of the good
people in that precinct gave the FREE
PRRss better support there would be no
necessity to discuss such a question.
Owing to differences on religious and
political opinions too many people on
Camas Prairie do not support their
county paper, and so its ability to ad.
vertise its home is necessarily circum-
scribed. And yet no man living-or a
dozen men combined-haved done more
to advertise Idaho county abroad by
interviews, by speeches and by writings,
than the editor of this same FREE Pass
which too many of you pretend to des-
pise, and begrudge the laborer his hire,
although you borrow your neighbor's
paper year in and year out. Support
your county paper and you will find it
the most tireless missionary for the
county, the best advocate of your own
interests, that you will ever find.

The Public Land Surveys.

Boise Statesman.1
Surveyor-general Straughn wanted
$4,000 for Idaho surveys the coming
season, but got only $4,000. He has re-
ceived great many applications for its
expenditure, but it will only be sufficient
for the subdivision of twelve or fourteen
townships. The bulk Of the amount he
has received will be disposed of in that
way for the immediate wants of the peo.
pie seem to demand it. The depart
ment moves very slow in these matters
and want to be well assured that no
part OF the area to be surveyed is tim
Der or mountain lands. 1t seems singu.
lar that the Interior Department will
not authorise the survey of more land
in the valleys of Idaho when they must
know that the money expended would
be but temporarily absent from the
treasury, and the settlers very much ac-
comodated. If the $4,000 asked for had
been granted. it is probable that more
than double the amount would have
ben retu rned before January /.

A Partial settlement win net save Him I


Monday night the case OF thcCity
Council vs.. Mayer Delmn came vi
according TO previous announcement,
but the Mayor himself was not pres-
cnt An atturwy, however, rendered
the Board 5000, the amount claimed
to be due up TO the lst of December,
which was received and The city treas
urer, who was present, gave him Il re-
ccipt up to that time.
This leaves u gap Of nearly two
months in the settlement, which is
still unaccounted for, and the Board
required the Mayor TO sc, tic the same
at or before the next meeting, and at
the same time requested him to hand
in his resignation as Mayor of Scran-
ton.
The carclcssness with which the af-
fairs of this city has been conducted
deserves the strongest Reproduction,
and we think that Mayor Delmas
ought 10 resign al Office which has
been administered with such criminal
laxity. The grand jury, which found
his books IN such a muddle, and en-
bodied their condemnation in their
report, very probably took some ac-
ton IN the matter, and We have reason
to believe the case will come before
the next circuit court.
at all events the City Council seems
disposed To bring all offenders to a
street account in future, and the only
fault we have to ird with them is
that they are rather late about begin
ming TO hold criminal offenders to a
strict accountability, AS this is not the
first nor the only case Of the kind that
has occurred here during the past
year.
