AIturas County, Idaho, Rejoices.

KETCHUM, Ida, May 9.-[Speclal tele-
gram TO THE HERALD. YESTERDAY was
generally observed ia our town as Arbor
day. a few sage brush were transplanted
and other trees in proportion.
The supreme tribunal of the state of
Idaho in its recent decision has knocked
the spots out of the organization of the
Alta-Lincoln county scheme passed by the
last legislature and here we are again in
old Alturas county. ketchum has always
stood aloof from this county seat mania
for that seems to have been all there was
in it and next fall the people will de-
eide this veXed question of counties
TO county seats and let out the eternal
hired lobby men and chronic county divi-
sion lawyers. A natural good feeling is
entertained by all towards Ketchum, and it
being the natural outlet of all the vast min
eral districts northeast and west of the
Wood River country, it is bound to figure
prominently in the future. At the present
there is more shipping of freight going out
from this point TO the different mining sta
tions than BY any other station in the
Wood River country. The stages from
here to different points in the Salmon
River district are crowded with passen-
gers, the route being in excellent condition.

A SICILIAN
Politician Who Stands Very Near
Marquis di Rudini,
Gives His Opinion of the New Orldans Lynch.
ing-He Says the People are Terribly
Excited over the Matter.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
New YORK, May 9.-The Herald publishes
another long cablegram from Palermo in
which the correspondent says: While l
have found the common people surprisingly
indifferent as to the actual dispute between
the United States and Italy over the New
Orleans massacre, the moment turn to a
politician the tone changes. Prince Cam
poreale is probably the foremost man in
Sicilian politics to-day. He stands very
close to Marquis di Rudinl and has Just de-
clined cabinet portfolio because he is
president of the International exposition at
Palermo. No man can speak with more
certainty for political Sicily. When 1
called upon the prince to talk about the
the New Orleans trouble, he declared that
the slaughter of the prisoners had made a
very deep impression on the people, and
that nothing but the trial of the lynchers
and payment Of indemnity could remove
the feeling aroused by the attitude of the
United States government.
But you have yourself been charge

must admit the Italian government or it's
minister, Baron Fava, has made distinct

tee which the United States government
has no power to give"
II will admit nothing of the kind,'' said
the prince. ION the contrary, the United
States has by treaty bound itself in the
most explicit language to afford protection
to Italian subjects residing On American
soil. Baron Fava simply went to your gov
eminent with the treaty in his hand and in
sisted upon its fultllment. The problem
of how the murder OF those prisoners is to
be punished is for the United States to solve.
We stand for our rights under the treaty,
but realize, of course, that 1000 persons
cannot be punished. Yes, we expect that
at least the five or six leaders, Parkerson
and company, who directed the mob and
who afterwards publicly gloried in it, shall
be brought to justice. 1t would be a
mockery TO try those men in New Orleans.

venue can be changed to any county in the
state. If the authorities should do their
very best and then the murderers should
be acquitted, | suppose we would have to
be satisfied. But the tone of Mr.. Blaine's
response to Italy was so warm, and might
say so undignified and the letter of Presi-
dent Harrison to the governor of Louisi-
ana so cold, not even characterizing the
lynching as crime, that our government
naturally insists upon all its rights"

Suicide of a Young Woman in Goshen.

PAYsoN, Ut, May Especial telegram
to The HERALD. Am account of the SEN
sational death of young woman reached
here last evening from Goshen, Mormon
settlement twelve miles west Of Payson.
The story of the tragedy is as follows:
Miss Leona Gurley, promising young
maiden of Is summers, beloved by
all who knew her, met her death
at her own hands in peculiar
manner. She was visiting at married
sisters house when seeing vial of oil Of
tansy on the mantle she SAID in joking
way that she was going to take some of it.
Her sister advised her not to but Leona
persisted in an apparent spirit of banter
and helped herself to dose of the drug.
In short time she complained of being
thirsty and went to the cellar for a drink
of water. Returning in few minutes she
fell to the floor In a fit of spasms, and in an
hour expired IN great agony.
No suicidal motive is thought to have
lead to the unfortunate circumstance
which has cast gloom over the little COM
munity of Goshen.

PATsoN, May Especial Telegram to
TIRE HERALD AT Payson the delegation
of Democrats from Salt Lake. Provo and
Springville were met by Judge Gregg, an
old timer of the Jeffersonian stripe, and
Mr.. NJ. b. Tilden. The Payson brass band
escorted the delegation to the Francis

escorted to the Payson opera house amid
glorious strains of music from the band.
which continued the luxury until the meet
ing was called TO order by President E. H.
Harper, of the Payson Democratic party,
and the lion of the evening, Hon. ]. w.
Judd, was introduced to the vast concourse
Of people. The judge proceeded to enumer-
ate the principles of the party, tracing in
detail the history of Democracy, from its
first inception at the time of the great revo-
luton which severed the only two ideas of
government that really exist-the kingly
and civil or democratic government.
Since then there had been many ideas
advanced by different men and parties.
as they construed their notions, which
finally arrived to the present day, and only
two great parties, the Democratic and
TO the tariff question. The Judge advanced
the soundest ideas of pure democracy and
referred to the great question of local self
government. The gentleman referred to
the first inception of this little party.
About year ago he and few gentlemen
had met and discussed the principles of the
Liberal party and Peoples party; had
taken them and studied them, and after
the closest inspection had found that there
was nothing in them. They concluded ha
the best thing to do was to go back to the
foundation of pure Jeffersonian doctrine
and establish it here. They had done so
and were gratified at the glorious
results. He then read the declarat
,tion of principles as adopted by this
ssmall body of men, interspersing
each plank with sound reasoning and ar
gument that was listened to with marked
attention and frequent applause. The
speaker made some complimentary re-
marks in showing up the organ of the Lib
eral party, proving that we Democrats
mean business, and had made this radical
paper come down from its lofty pedestal
+ and define itself on strict party lines.
This, in his estimation, was a big compli-
ment to our efforts, He was fiattered at
the early strength Of our party, which is
creating CONSERVATION in the ranks of both
ocal parties. He urged the necessity of
joining and adding strength to the great
party of the future.

KILL SECTIONALISM
Watterson Says This is Now the
Great Issue.
Ii the Democrats Do Not Carry the Presidency
We May Look for Force Bills and all
That Bodies Evil.

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch. !
NEW YORK, May 9.-Daua's Sun pub
fishes the following article credited to the
Waco Day which the Sun says was written
by Colonel Henry Watterson. In 1884, as
most of you know, l wrote the tariff plank
in the platform of the national democracy.
1t was called a 'straddle,' that plank, but
you remember that we went to the country
on it and triumphed. 1t met the emergency.
In 1885, when the party met again, Senator
German and others wanted another strad-
die. told them no, that four years had
wrought great change; that the time had
come to speak out: that the message sent
to Congress by the President and the Mills
bill demanded an utterance. We did not
speak out and we were beaten. You know
as well as do what beat US. 1t was not
that we were not on record in manly, in
telligent way. We had Mugwump nomi-
nee who could not carry his own state. 1

you that he was the nominee; you know
what situation, what the pressure was as

sion about the tariff; we will adjust that
question. 1t is what we will do about sill
yer that confronts US. My advice is to let
silver alone, or if we have to allude to it,
to do so in way that will not ants gonize
the world. We can declare for coinage to
an extent that will meet the needs of the
the country. We can be conservative: we
can keep within bounds. This is nv view
as an individual Democrat, and urge its
consideration upon you gentlemen and
Democrats who are listening. You cannot
with safety antagonize the money centres.
You know the east will be against US in the
matter. The free, or unlimited coinage of
silver is mere shibboleth. For Gods
sake let US let it alone and try and elect
our ticket in 1892. If we do not carry the
country then, you may look for the force

sible for the society's branches in this
county to do more than to pass the usual
resolution. The society had long been pre-
pared for this event. Nine Blavatsky her
self had warned theosophists that the death

The New York Worlds EXPLANATION.

NEW YORK, May 9.-The World will say
tomorrow that the shipments of gold the
last week have rarely been exceeded
within like period and they gave to the
bears the long coveted opportunity to turn
things their way. AS matter of fact, it
was not so much the amount exported that
sent chill through Wall street, as the mys
terry surrounding the movement and the In
dehnlteness as to the causes which led up
to 1t. Since the close of March exports of
gold and silver approximate S25, 000,000 and
many bankers are of the opinion the ship
ments are forced in other words, that for
elgner's suffer loss in order to get gold and
that as usual the thing resolves itself into
an exchange operation. The apprehension
felt as to the present loss of gold, how
ever, is to some extent sentimental
as the director of the mint,
shows we have produced S572, 920, 900
OF gold in the last sixteen years, and in that
time our net imports were S93, 466, 900, al
though from May, 1888. toJuly, 1889, the ex-
port reached over SCI, 100000 He places
our stock of gold on the first of this month
at $500, 100000. 1t is argued from all these
facts that the excitement and depression
consequent upon the gold exports are
hardly warranted and spectators are re-
sponsible for the trouble

SHIPMENTS OF GOLD
To Europe and the Causes for the
Same.
THERE is NO OCCASION FOR ALARM
Says Director OF the Mint Leech-The New
York Worlds Explanation-Ihe Work
ofSpeculators.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-Director of the
Mint Leech has been watching the flow of
gold from the country to Europe, but sees
nothing In the tide to excite alarm. Within
few weeks Germany has drawn on US for
s3,596,OOO in gold bars and S9,52SOOO in
coin; France has called for S6,25O, OOO in
coin, and England Sc, 100000. At the ruling
rate of exchange, according to Leech, it is
unnecessary to look further for causes of
gold shipments than the payment of
the balance Of trade and the strained finan-
clal situation in Europe The United
States, he says, has more gold than any
other country on hand at this time.
