General Satisfaction at the

passed the senate in an amended form,
and the House will no doubt concur
with the amendment. Thus the matter
is practically settled. The people Of
the new county are satisfied jubi.
liant. They have got much more than
they expected at the beginning Of the
fight, although during the struggle tho
movement developed such strength
that its friends hoped for its immediate
passage. As the matter now stands (if
THE TRIBUNE got it straight over the
telephone) the bill becomes q law pro.
vided q majority of the people of the
new county favor it at the polls at the
next general election. This is equiva-
lent to saying that the bill should pass
and take effect year from next
November. That it will carry with the
people is no question-they are unani-
mously in favor Of it. At any rate if
the people do not want it neither does
Caldwell. Aside from some little dis
appointment that it does not take effect
at once, we are well satisfied, and some
even declare it better than the original
bill. If ratified by the House and
signed by the Governor (of which there
seems to be no doubt) it places the
matter just where it belongs-with the
people of the new county. 1t is now
out Of the hands of future legislators,
and tho threat that Canyon county
would never get another representative
in future sessions if the bill failed to
pass, falls fiat. It has been a long and
hard struggle. We bearded the strong
est ring in Idaho, backed by outside
influence, in its own den and came out
on top. While we did not get what we
wanted outright, we have got the mat
ter in such shape that we will have to
fight no moro powerful outside influ-
ences, and tho people of the proposed
county win settle the matter among
themselves. We had 700 out Of $40
voters on the petition for division, and
when it comes to vote it win not have
100 opponents. It is merely . matter
Of 10 months. The next election will
be held under tho new law which calls
for . secret ballot. Bosses and money
win not be 80 prominent q feature a.
under tho old system, and we can safely
hope for a fair expression Of the wishes
Of the people. This all we want. 1.-THE
will of the People, is the Law Of tho

clover the increase in weight would be
more than to off set the expense in
home feeding. One ton of alfalfa
(Which is nearly equal in fatteninq quail
tiles to grain will feed one head of
stock through the winter, or two
tons with little pasture through
the year. The average cost to raise one
ton OF alfalfa Including the cutting
and stacking) is sl.66 per ton. Idaho

clover much the same. If the land is
OF the finest quality, and well irrigated
at the proper periods, this land may be
made to give 500 tons. Alfalfa once
seeded is good for twenty years with
out further attention, or fertilizing.
and after a few years needs scarcely
any irrigating. We again intimate our
statement that home fed cattle weigh
heavier, of course bring larger prices
in live weight, and the butcher can
make more profit for the better favored
cuts delivered to his consumers.
There is wonderful difference in the
taste and eating between range and
home fed cattle. If stockmen will feed
up their market cattle they will gain
one year in advance Of weight on a
young steer. The experiment is worth
trying. In several counties of Idaho
these vast ranges are located, but par
ticular mention should be made of
Ada, Alturas and Owyhee counties, and
all along the Snake river for 400 miles.
These ranges are tributary to Caldwell
which is now great shipping point
for large herds Of stock and cattle
from these ranges. Cattle are put
aboard the fine improved stock feeding
cars of the Union Pacific railroad and
leave Caldwell for both the eastern
and the western markets. Much of the
stock goes to the coast and is shipped
across the Pacific Ocean for foreign
ports. Official reports show total of
1885, 1896 cattle in Idaho for 1899; about
10000 head are marketed annually, but
much beef is consumed in Idaho towns
and many mining camps. This SUBJ
ject on stock-raising and some results
given by stock-raisers will be published
and continued in another issue of this
paper. .-4 sr@1E.f.t

THE DISTRICT JUDGES
Cannot Agree Among Themselves as
10 Residence

There appears 10 be considerable
doubt AS to the distribution Of the
District Judges throughout the State,
says the Virginia Chronicle. The law
requires that one shall reside either
at Virginia City or Carson, one at
Reno, Winnemucca or Elko, one at
Eureka or Austin, one at Phoebe, Ely
or Belmont. Heretofore the resi-
Gences of the Judges have been at
Virginia, Reno and Eureka. Wells,
since his appointment, has maintained
his residence at Carson, although the
law under which he was appointed
directed that he should reside at
Phoebe, Ely or Belmont. Rising will
of course remain at Virginia City.
We understand that Talbot would
prefer to remain in Eiko, where he at
present resides, and that Fitzgerald
and Cheney, @ho we're both elected
from Eureka, would like to remove To
Reno. 1t is certain that the wishes Of
two of them cannot be gratiiled, AS
Reno and Elko are in the same sub
district. and if Talbot remains al Elko
there can be ~ resident Judge at
Reno. Tie law provides that unless
The Judges can otherwise agree it

vided, however, that the four Judges
shall elect presiding Judge, who
shall have the power to direct the

ties Of the State rs the public BUSH

pear. virtually empowers the Presid-
lug Judge 10 assign the others tn the
sub-d!sl'icts rs he deems proper,
although each Judge decides for him
sell whiea of tie places named in his
division ny the law, he will reside.
There was no Judge elected from the
division including Phoebe, Ely and
Belmont. and we suspect that neither
falbol, Fitzgerald nor Cheney care To
abide ia neither 81. these remote
places. Oac ii them will have To,

Since our last Issue the year 1890
has gone TO join the innumerable
throng that have gone before and the
New Year of Grace, 1891, has step
ped into its place.
The year that is gone was not re-
markable in any particular events
as an epoch of time. 1t moved
down its harvests and gathered them
into the Masters barn, as IL also SOW
ed the seeds for coming time.
To us, as State and community,
the past year has been one of general
business depression. Our mining
district, which year ago promised
so fair 10 give us boom, still Lam
cuisines for want Of capital to devel-
OPP its wealth, though all who come
10 see il pronounce it fair To look
upon and Of great merit. tt Is
needless for us to refer To the many
peculiar circumstances that have
combined TO defer tho hopes and an-
tieipations our people INDUCED in a
year ago. 1t is enough 10 know that
they did not materialize. So let us
say, Vale TO 1901 Hail to 1891

A Big strike.

About two years ago there was
quite an excitement on the Carson
river, caused by the discovery OF
gold and black sand. 1t soon died
out, but Messrs. Willard and Nc
Donald have been hunting the place
where the sand came from, and have
traced it to ledge of gold quartz,
averaging twenty feet thick. The
groupings which are IA feet thick, can
be traced for over two miles, and at
least two miles are already located
Out of twenty-four samples horned
twenty showed gold. The ledge is
near Horse Shoe Bend about sixteen
miles from Genoa, and the river cuts
it in two places. 1t is regarded as
one of the most important mineral
discoveries made in this section fol
years. Carson Appeal.
