GLENN's FERRY FACTS.

Miss Matte Glenn is visiting
friends in Boise.
Mrs. w. A. Keys, Of Anaconda,
formerly Miss Pearl Burnet of this
place, is here visiting her parents.
We noticed Sheriff Robins of Ada
county and p. Hughes, the Boise
real estate man, on the streets of
our town this week.
Fred Wright, Chas. Olson, J. III.
Morrow, Commissioner Stockton
and Deputy Sheriff Roberts have
returned from the county seat.
Bill Garrety who was accidently
shot through the fieshy part Of the
left limb is improving and will soon
resume his position in the shop.
John Tapscott was on the 9th
arraigned before Justice Sinnott for
unlawful cohabitation. The case is
thus: A year ago Miss Matte All
bright, sister of Mrs. r. p. David
son of this place, went back east TO
Nebraska to her old home. A few
months afterward news reached
here that she had married and
would come here with her husband.
Shortly after the parties arrived
here and were introduced as Mr..
and Mrs John Tapscott, and were
domiciled in Mr.. Davidson's house.
The course of love (?) did not run
smooth in this case and in their
spats it became rumored that the
parties were not married, as they
had represented. Mr.. Davidson in
vestigated the matter and ascer-
tanned the report TO be true, and he
thereupon swore out a warrant for
the arrest Of Tapscott. The woman
in the case is now in hospital in
Portland where she recently gave
birth to a lively boy.
The Fourth was duly celebrated
here. After midnight Of the Sd the
booming Of the cannons and the
screaming Of the whistles announced
the beginning of the exercises. The
buildings about the town and the
locomotive engines were gaily dec
GRATED with flags and bunting. The
mugwump's parade in fantastic
costume was a feature of the fore
noon. In the afternoon the Min.
Home Brass Band rendered good
sonl.stirring patriotic music. At
the pavilion the exercises of the
day we're held. Miss Matte Glenn
and Miss Minnie Judy, ably repre-
senting Columbia and Idaho re-
spectively; w. III. Dial acted as
Chairman Of the Day; C. C. Glenn
read the Declaration of Indepen-
dence; A. M. Sinnott delivered the
Grafton and the ladies of the choir
rendered several patriotic songs.
The exercises finished with a grand
ball.

PINE GROVE ITEMS.

In my last communication I
stated that the ore from the Maud
mine, worked at the Franklin mill,
yielded $40 per ton, which was a
mistake, ii should have been $50
per ton.
The Lone Jack mine, near Dixie
station, owned by Butler 4 Wilson,
has been bonded to Charley Han
cock for $1,000. the bond to expire
in 90 days. Mr.. Hancock is a
thorough mining man and has put
a force Of men at work developing
the ledge, which promises to be a
daisy.
Pluck and energy have at last
been rewarded in the Franklin tun-
mel. The foot-wall of the ledge has
been broken into but not enough
done yet to give particulars at this
writing.
Everybody here is jubilant over
the new star on our flag. We have
begun to realize that we are en-
titled to all the rights and privi-
leges of full-blooded American citi-
zens, arid can hardly wait till next
Presidential election to exercise our
newborn rights.

a PLEASANT REUNION.

The Salt Lake Tribune of the 4th
makes mention of two of Little FL
more's well known and respected
citizens:
Edward T. Beck Of the real estate
firm of Beck, Stephen & Kennedy,
this city, had n pleasant greeting
with his brothers in Ogden the
other day after long separation.
Twenty-Five years ago one of his
brothers, Charles, went to Germany.
making break in the family link
of four brothers in all. Since then
the other three have been in diff
ferent localities. Albert w. Beck
and Chas. Beck about ten years ago
drifted TO Idaho and engaged in the
stock business near Boise City.
where they have prospered and
gained a host Of friends. The other
brother, William III. Beck, lately
came to Ogden and took editorial
management of the Commercial.
The Carnival there this week brought
the two Idaho brothers to Ogden,
and for the first time in twenty-five
years, the four brothers we're again
together TO talk over scenes of their
childhood back in the Pennsyl-
vania hills, and compare notes re-
garding the life of each as they
have worked up to full, honorable
manhood and carved out for them
selves honorable names and posi-
tons in society. Our citizen will
have the pleasure of showing his
three brothers around this city this
week and presenting them TO some
of the many friends he has here.

Concluding a forcible article on
the admission of Idaho, Judge
Street says in the Ketchum Key
stone: "Let not those who have
been foremost in precipitating State
hood imagine that a division of the
spoils among themselves is the
only thing left to be done II there
is anything valuable in Statehood
to the people of the State it is some
thing more than a clamorous grab
bling for the offices. Ill feeling and
bad blood are already manifesting
among senatorial aspirants and
State candidates, but thus far it
appears 10 be confined to only one
party. u it continues, it is more
than possible that Idaho may even
tually prove to be to the Republic
can party what Colorado was to the
Democracy"

THE ADMISSION BILL.

We are in receipt OF the bill that ia
now law providing for the admission
OF Idaho, and regret that we can not
this week print il in full. However,
We give below two sections that are OF
vital importance 10 the taxpayers oil
Elmore:
Sec. 81. That until the State OIL
GERS are elected and qualified under
the provisions of the constitution OF
said State, the officers of the Territory
OF Idaho shall discharge the duties OF
their respective offices under the con-
stitution Of the State, in the manner
and form as therein provided; and all
laws in force made by said Territory
at the time Of it's admission into the
Union, shall be in force ia said State,
except as modified or changed by this
act or by the constitution OF the State.
Sec y. That all acts or parts OF
acts in conflict with the provisions OF
this act, whether passed by q Legisla-
ture OF said Territory or by Congress,
are hereby repealed.
To make this matter more clear 10
the minds Of those who have been agi-
Eating removal Of the county seat we
quote sections and OF article Is,
Idaho Constitution.
Sec. l. The several counties OF the
Territory as they now exist are hereby
recognized rs legal subdivisions of
this State.
Sec. 2. No county seat shall be re-
moved unless upon petition Of q ma
iorty of the qualified electors Of the
county, and unless two-thirds Of the
qualified electors of the county, voting
on the proposition al q general cleo
ton, shall vote in favor of such re.
moval. A proposition OF removal oil
the county seat shall not be submitted
in the same county more than once
in six years, except as provided by
existing laws. No person shall vote
at any county seat election who has
not resided in the county six months
and in the precinct ninety days.
In the opinion Of some OF the best
legal minds OF this State, the provis-
ions for removal of county seats are
too plain to admit OF but one inter
probation.

Down crept the sun; what should it see
But Mistress Beulah getting tea,
AS. Winl1ing with it's fiery eye,
It watched her from the western sky?
The housewives skirt flew roundabout,
Her deft hand weighed the sweetmeats out,
While many q sidelong glance she threw
Down the beech-Shaded avenue.
The moon rose up; but all it saw
Was Hiram on a load of straw,
AS hungry, weary, flushed and brown
He logged belated back from town.
The patient team with right good vii.
Bowed their broad neclzS to climb the hill,
And now from every field and lane
The thrush sent up it's twilight strain.
The lamp shone forth; what did it see?
Hiram and Beulah drinking tea.
The snow white linen spread with care,
Set out at length with rustic fare.
For wholesome Jest, and sweet delay.
And chiding finger raised in play,
Where is the feast can equal this,
Which Beulah seasons with kiss.
