4 Fine Wagon Bridge.

Payette Transcript.
Work on the Payette wagon
bridge is being driven ahead at a
very rapid rate, Notwithstanding
tho almost constant bad weather.
The bridge is to be a combination
of wood and iron, and when COM
pleted will be one of the best wagon
bridges in the state. Every piece
of timber exposed to the weather is
being heavily coated with paint
before being put in place, which
adds greatly to the life of the struc-
ture. We are told that the bridge
will be complete in about three
weeks. As we are situated on the
main and only line of state travel
travel for a great portion of Idaho
we would be pleased to have our
exchanges in the state generally

tridge, stated alb we.

such gymnastics. We didn't come
up with the herd, although my nag
was a good traveler-he carried too
heavy q handicap. It seemed that
at every jump he would throw me
over his head, or run his nose into
the ground. How fast we were
getting over the ground l had no
means of telling as it was all 1
wanted to do was to keep my seat.
l would freely have given all tn e
old shoes ever had to have a good
saddle or been at home. How far
he could have carried me l have
no means of knowing, but I could
see that his wind was failing him
after we had thus travelled about
two miles. But good luck was in
store for me; prairie water slough
lay before US nearly hidden in the
tall grass. My nag undertook to
leap it, but with his load too much
forward plunged head under muck,
water and mud, throwing me
nearly up to my neck in the same
nice stuff. After houndering
awhile he reached the bank minus
his rider and with a parting below,
and a lightened heart he took after
the fast disappearing herd, whilst
l crawled out got and back to camp
without gun or knife, which I never
found, although l and Mr.. B.
looked the ground over carefully.
My companions were much aston
ished at my safe return, as they
were about organizing q party to
follow in search and if found, to
bring back what was left of me to
bury-that is, if they found me this
side of Montana or Washington
Territory.
Ais well that ends we'll, but if I
ever try to cut another bison's
throat, l will know that he is shot
dead instead of being only creased.

4 Free Ride.
Nv Self Sharpner.

HIGH VALLEY, March 7, 1891
This old story I've told many times
and many listeners absolutely
refused to believe it. Now 1 won
der if there are any more who see
it in print will still not believe it.
Well, if they do, l can't help it,
yet it is true-truth itself. Twas
reminded of it today by reading
almost q similar occurance in a
weekly paper, in which a man
overtaken by a herd of buffalo,
seeing no show for his life, managed
to grasp the horns of a buffalo bull,
swung himself astride of the ami
mails back, and after a long, peril
GUS ride finally jumped onto
bluff sand bank out of the way of
stampeded, believing herd.
Now my story runs this way: I
was one of the first settlers in Ne
braska, and it was the custom of
most of US to make regular fall
hunts among the buffalo, thus get
ting our fall and winters meat,
and we scarcely ever failed to get
all we wanted, also the hides, some
of which we paid the Indians to
dress for US, out of which we often
made overcoats, moccasins, sleigh
robes, etc. But now, alas for the
bison, they have almost entirely
disappeared, and a nice buffalo
robe is almost a curiosity, but
am DEPRESSING from my tale. It
was on one Of these hunts that
took place in the fall of '53. I was
one Of a party of seven; we went
we'll prepared to have a good hunt;
a stout team, salt barrels to put
our meat down in, snake medicine
no We didn't have any. We
made our camp on a small branch
that ran into in to the Republican
river. Early the following morn
ing. l with mani will call him
B., took our guns and a small
lunch, struck out west. 1t was a
beautiful day. The atmosphere
was hazy, and just warm enough
to be comfortable. After going
about two miles over rolling prai-
ries, from the top of a small emil
nence Mr.. B. pointed to our right.
About halfa-mile away was a
small herd Of about thirty buffalo
indulging in their morning repast.
After viewing the situation over we
decided to creep up a small ravine
which mad it's source near where
our game vas feeding, and under
cover Of the coarse, tall grass, we
were within gunshot of the unsus
pecting animals. Cautiously emerg-
ing from our cover, Mr.. B. whis-
pered to me that as my gun was of
a smaller calibre than his, to aim
at the nearest one, which happened
to be u two-year.old bull, whilst he
would shoot at a COW some twenty
yards further off. In less time
than it takes to tell it the reports of
our guns sounded as one, and both |
animals fell, his killed dead, and
mine-well; not as dead as I
shortly after wished him. He sank
down with his feet under him and |
lay in this position qnivering, with,
as l supposed. a death wound.
Rushing up with my hunting knife
to thoroughly bleed him, I caught |
one horn to throw him on his side,
but 1 couldn't turn him down 90 |
1 got astride of his neck to cut his |
jugular, still holding by his horn. |

feet with me on his neck and my |
knife out of my hand lay on the |

WESTERN KANSAS.

An interesting feature about Kansas
this year is the great prosperity of the
westesn half of the state. As a gener-
al rule, this has not been so, one reason
being that the people in the western
part have recently discovered the fact
that they can raise wheat. The year
1890 brought a fine- yield, and now
comes 1891 with from fifteen to twenty
bushels per acre, and quality very fine.
Seward, Haskell, Morton, Stevens,
Grant, Stanton, Hamilton, Kearney,
Finney, Gray, Ford and Edwards, these
twelve counties will make a yield Of
from B, 600, 900 to 5000, 900 bushels.
This count don't, of course, include
Meade, Clark, Comauche, Barber or
Kiowa, all of which have exceedingly
heavy yields Of wheat Of very finc quail
ity. Haskell county alone will have
100000 bushels. The fact that wheat
can be grown in these counties and
grown successfully, as demonstrated
this year, gives an awful black eve to
the oft repeated declaration, that the
above named territory could only be uti-
lized for cattle grazing.
In addition to the unprecedented
yield of wheat in the first twelve coun-
ties named, there is large amount Of
corn, rye and oats, all Of which is in
splendid condition.
This means that a large number of
mortgages will be paid off this fall in
this part of the state, and besides, it
will be an inducement for eastern peo-
pie to make determined move towards
western Kansas. Hutchinson News.

The republicans are again cnthused
over another Of Mr.. ingalls, letters
wherein he reaffirms his adherence to
the republican party. But in this let
ter, Mr.. ingalls, again afirms his belief
that new principles must replace old
chestnuts. Mr.. Ingalls, is inconsistent.
Neither he nor any other man can point
TO single new issue advocated by the
republican party. 1t is for high tariff
and always has been. 1t is against free
coinage. 1t believes in keeping up Sec
tional strife. 1t has had the power,
time and again, to not only advocate,
but to put in force, new principles. 1t
has not done it, and the day will never
return again when it will have the op-
portunity. 1t is a dying party, anO it
holds its members only through memo
ries. To talk about new principles in
connection with the republican party is
to reach the apex of absurdity.

Grover Cleveland stands as the mo

Grover Cleveland stands as the most
conspicuous example Of sel6shness be-
fore the American people. He fatty
declines to take part in the Ohio cam
paign or any other campaign. He says
in reference to his refusal to do so that
"of course l anticipate a cry will be
raised in certain quarters that am sell
fish and Indifferent to the success of
the nominees Of my party, but such ILL.,
natured accusations l Go not expect to
escape IN any event" How under hcav-
ems Cleveland can consistently expect
to escape the accusation Of sel6shness,
is beyond the brain power Of anyone but
himself He has been honored by his
party as no other man has been honored
in the past forty years, and yet he makes
a statement, which, in its essence, is a
complaint against any criticism being
made of his actions. Mr.. Cleveland is
an earnest tariff rcformer, but he wants
the other fellows to do all the work in
cident to gaining that end. He is a
good democrat, but he wants the other
fellows to get out and do the work in
cident to party triumph. He is for
office, and he wants the other fellows to
rally to his support, but without any re-
ciprocity when they are for Office. 10
fact, Mr.. Cleveland is an example of
sclfshness, the like of which cannot be
recalled by the oldest voter, and will
not again be seen by the youngest.

The democratic editors to the num-

about this. The democratic party of
this state has been ANXIOUS to fuse with
the third party and they we're willing

fused to coalcsce and now they retaliate
