POLITICS IN IDAHO.
Latah County Republican Conven-
tion Held at Moscow Wednes-
day Evening.
Delegates Elected and Resolutions
Adopted for the Boise City
State Convention.

On the 18th inst. the Lntah county
republican convention was held at
Moscow, Idaho, and the following
nine delegates were elected to the
state convention, to convene August
20 at Boise City: w. j. Mcconnell,
Judge Willis Sweet, w. w. Wat
kins, II. s. Brown, James A. Gal
braith, r. Fl. Barton, &. +. Burr, j..
w. Brigham and II. Bruce.
Judge Willis Sweet was the choice
Of the convention for IA candidate for
congress, and Hon. w. j. McCon-
nell was strongly indorsed for sena-
tor from the North.
The nominees for the legislature
were: Senator, j. w. Brigham;
representatives, j. G. Morten and *.
O. Skattaboe.
The platform adopted, which was
read by w. j. Mcconnell, recalls to
the republicans Of Latah county,
with pleasure, that the admission of
Idaho to statehood, and her citizens
to an equality with the citizens of
other states, was secured with out u
single democratic vote, and that the
democratic press and democratic
party were an unit in opposing the
admission bill.
1t goes on to state that the silver
bill, while not giving to the West
all that she asks, is yet IA great step
toward free coinage, and was passed
by Western republican votes over
the opposition of the gold bugs of
the East.
high tariff and the pensioning of
Union soldiers, and was in favor of
contributing money to build ships
and extending our trade with for
eign countries; and finally wound
up with the assertion that the plat
form of the republican party of
Idaho ought to be, and will be,
Idaho and her best interests first
last and all the time.
The following resolutions were
also adopted:
Whereas, Hon. Willis Sweet and
Hon. w. j. Mcconnell have been
active in securing the admission of
the state, obtaining votes for the
the same, and going to Washington
at their own personal expense, with
u view of securing the passage of the
admission bill, thereby proving their
patriotism and deep interest in the
state of Idaho, therefore be it
Resolved, That the delegates to the
first republican state convention
to assemble at Boise City August 20,
be instructed TO use all honorable
means to secure the nomination of
Hon. Willis Sweet for the repub-
ative candidate for congress; and
Furthermore be IL
Resolved, That the members of the
legislature be, and hereby are, in
structed to secure by all honorable
means the nomination and election
OF senator from Northern Idaho,
bearing always IN mind that the
choice of their constituents is w. J.
Mcconnell, and for such other
senator from Southern Idaho as will
best secure and harmonize with his
election.

The consideration for which these

1t WAS the discovery of this group
that caused the intense excitement
In the Chloride district the winter of

claims equally promising In that
locality were discovered.
The transfer of this property to n

thing that parties who are acquaint-
ed with the district have anticipated

IN THE MINING FIELD
Satisfactory Shipment of Daisy
Ore-Russell Works to De
Erected at the Mine.
The Chloride Group Bonded to a
Syndicate Yesterday tor a
Large Sum.
The Victoria Copper Mine--Gran-
ite Creek--Matters on the Min
ing Exohange-Notes.

f. w. Day, superintendent of the
Daisy mine located In the Summit
district near Colville, was in the
city recently, having just returned
from Salt Lake, where he went with
carload of Daisy ore for treatment
by Russell's lixiviation process.
There are only five works, using
this process, In operation in the
United States. Having learned
that the Russell process was pecul-
iarly suited to working ore such as Is
furnished by the Daisy, Mr.. Day
determined to ship carload as an
experiment. The result was more
than satisfactory. The carload of
twenty tons worked over 0S per
cent. of the assay value of the ore;
the tailings assayed only ! 3-l0
ounces.
Mr.. Russell, the inventor Of the
process, Is i'm charge of the works at
Salt Lake, and informed Mr.. Day
that the Daisy ore was more particu-
larly adapted to this process than
any other ore ever received, except
from mines in Old Mexico. The
Russell process will work amy kind
of ore, but is best adapted to all base
ores carrying light percentage of
lead, such us arsenical and antimon-
ial. The Salt Lake works treat $50
tons daily.
1t Is the intention Of the owners
of the Daisy, ali of whom reside In
Spokane Falls, to put in Russell liX-
iviation process works at the Daisy
mine as soon as practicable.
Mr.. Day says that when
the works are In operation OH the
ground the Daisy ore can be treated
at So per ton, whereas the cost of re-
duction at present is about S25. The
works will be constructed with ca
pacity of fifty tons daily, but the
furnace will be capable of treating
100 tons daily, so that the works
can be enlarged when occasion re-
quires.
AS it will be impossible to COM
plete the works before spring, n

the winter.
The work has already been car
ried down 3lS feet from the apex Of
the ore to the bottom of the level,
and an effort will be made to sink
200 feet further during the winter.
The lode averages seventeen feet in
width the entire depth. The mine
furnishes two characters of ore-lead
ore, which goes from 10 to IL per
cent. lead and 20 ounces in silver,
while the crude shipping ore goes 25
per cent. lead and from 40 to 40
ounces in silver.
Mr.. Day, the present superintend-
ent, has been in charge of the mine
since last May. He isan experienced
miner and was connected with the
famous Emma mine, in Utah, MS
assayer when that celebrated prop
erty, through one of the most gigan-
tic swindles on record, was unloaded
on an English syndicate for $5,-
600, 900.

A New and Rich Camp Tributary to
Spokane Falls.
William Alperson has returned
from a visit to the Granite creek
camp, which is situated twenty-three
miles south of Hope, Idaho. He
was accompanied by f.. II. Lock
wood, an Eastern gentleman, who
desired to inspect some of the prop
critics in the camp with view to in
vesting. Mr.. Lockwood was very
iavorably impressed with the prop
critics he inspected and will probably
invest.
Mr.. Alperson was much pleased
with the appearance of the numer-
our claims he visited, and says there
are some prospects in the camp
which are likely to prove bonanzas
when developed.
One of these is the Big Chief,
which was purchased last week by
John 9. Davenport from George
Thrasher for $4,000 cash.
The Homestake, Nevada and
King Solomon are all exceedingly
promising properties, and are all
owned by Spokane parties. The
ore Is high grade.
Granite Greek camp Is immediate
ly tributary to Spokane Falls and
promises to be one of the richest of
the many rich camps In this section.

No cYsic or critic has ever disputed
the assertion that "a fellow feeling
makes us wondrous kind or that ''ons
touch of nature makes the whole world
akin" These incontrovertible fhcts ure
plainly demonstrated IN tho following,
from the Big Bend Empire: "The name
of James Odgers. editor of the Coulee
City News, is the only one heard men,
toned in this part of the county in con-
nection with the office of representative.
We believe MIR. Odgers is tho man for
tho position and should he receive the
nomination at the hands of the repub.
lican convention the Empire would wave
the Odgers banner. But, Jim, you must
take back that gag on us about the
pants, or your name will be pants so
far as we are concerned. The papers
will never let up on it,"

DEER hunting In Oregon is attended
with greater dangers than Is the case in
Eastern Washington and Idaho. There
the dense underground conceals the
form of the hunter, and too often, as in
the case Of the killing of Mr.. Edward
Walker, near Foley Springs, move
ment in the bushes and u glimpse of the
hunter lead his impulsive companion
to fire at the moving objects. Every
year Western Washington and Oregon
record number of these tragic errors.
A remarkable phase of these hunting
fatalities Is the fact that in nearly every
case the unfortunate hunter falls NOR
tally wounded. The aim in such cases
is usually terribly accurate. In this sec
ton the woods are freer from under
brush, and consequently VIC seldom hear
of such tragic errors.

The WRONGS OF ARMENIA.
An Appeal Made to the President of
the United etates.

New York Aug. 16.-The Armenian
colony in this city have forwarded a
petition to President Harrison for mis-
consideration. The petition calls atten-
ton TO the condition of the Armenians
under Turkish misrule and, while con-
ceding that the United States can not
forcibly interfere, formulates the hope
that a strong expression of American
indignation, particularly If it has official
sanction, will make a profound impress
sion on public opinion in Eu-
rope, and "unite In active intervon ton
those Christian powers who are pledged
TO mend Turkish misgovernment in
Armenia" The petition recounts the
horrors perpetrated by the Turks upon
Christians. '"All pretenses of restraint, Z"
il SAYS, have been laid aside by the
Turkish savages, and the only hope of
Armenia is in God and her Christian
friends"
AN INsURREcTroS THREATESED.
VIEsNA, Aug. l6,-people casually
well informed believe that an insurrec-
ton In Armenia is close at hand, which
will be followed in due time by the Rus
sian occupation OF Lrzeroum.

letter from G. Beckmyer, who, in
company with +. z. Wheeler, is
engaged in development work on
the copper claim Victoria, which is
located on Friday creek, half mile
from where it empties into the
Similkameen, fifty miles northwest
of Conconully, in British Columbia.
The Victoria was discovered last
year by Mr.. Wheeler, and is owned
by himself and Messrs. Beckmyer
and Alexander. Mr.. Beckmyer
writes that they have stripped the
vein forty feet, and are now sinking

of solid copper ore. At the time OF
writing the chute appeared to be
five feet wide and was getting larger
as depth was attained. A large
sample of ore from the Victoria Is

SENATOR MITCHELL is a shrewd poll
tician, but the Oresonian seems to have
outfenced him in the matter OF the CEN
sus. 1t attributed the deficient census
to the Oregon delegations interference
with the appointments, claiming that
broken-down politicians were rewarded
with positions by the census bureau.
Senator Mitchell is indiscreet enough to
retort sharply in defense of the census.
The Oregonians have forgiven a great
deal at the hands of Senator Mitchell.
They have overlooked his plurality of
wives, change of names and love-mak-
ing to his wife's sister, but won't they
draw the line at his attitude on the
censusp There are some things that
even moss back can not endure. The
man that monkeys with the Oregon
census is fooling with fire.

IT Is hoped that Mrs. Grant will inter-
pose no objection to the proposed re-
moyal OF the remains of General Grant
from New Y York to Arlington cemetery.
True, her home is in New York, but tho
selfish spirit of the moncyed men of that
city and their utter failure to avail
themselves of the opportunity so long
afforded of erecting q suitable monu-
ment above the generals tomb have
surely not been without their effect up
on the spirit OF his widow. Once the
honored dust is laid to rest in the na-
tional cemetery near Washington, by the
side of thousands who fell in his victori-
Gus battles, the gratitude and PATRIOTS m
of the American people will be shown
in a spontaneous outpouring that will
cease not until magnificent monument
has been reared above the tomb of the
hero of Shiloh, of Vicksburg and of APP
pomattox.
