A Novelty In License.


A REAL novelty in the way of TEN.
perance statutes has come to light. A
town in Nebraska proposes to issue
licenses to drinkers instead of the sa-
looms and to have an ascending scale
Of prices for those who drink beer.
the champagne habitues and the man
of alcoholic habits. No one who does
not exhibit license is to have a
drink under severe penalties, and those
who abuse their privileges are to be
totally debarred from indulgence in
even the mildest form of dissipation.
The originators of this plan which is
proposed in all seriousness, believe
that it will yield a much larger profit
than the old method, but many law
looks well on paper that is impracti-
cable in its Observation-Disclosures
News.
Yes, you may shift license from the
seller to the drinker, you may have
high license or low license or no Ii
cense, but the whiskey goes down, the
same red lane all the time and makes
drunk come whether it be free or paid
for with the last dime in sight or the
last to come in the future.

Steve 0gleshy, superintendent Of
the Big Lode mine and mill. came
over from Atlanta Wednesday on a
hurried business trip. We caught
him on the fly and detained him
just long enough to learn that the
Big Lode tunnel, Tuesday night.
was in a distance of $50 feet. The
last 30 feet penetrated exceedingly
hard rock. but when Mr.. Oglesby
left the face Of the tunnel was in a
softer formation, indicating the near
approach Of the ledge. The tunnel
is four feet wide and six feet thre.
inches high, in the clear, and as
straight as an arrow. The track
extends from the tunnel to the ore
bins Of the mill, which will require
the handling of the ore but once,
thereby enabling the management
to reduce low grade ore at profit.
But as this ledge years ago proved
its immense value, il is not at all
likely the company will run short
of high-grade ore for many years
after tapping the big ledge with this
tunnel. Mr.. 0glesby is pushing the
work night and day, and as the
owners have placed implicit conf
dcnce in his Judgment and integrity
and given him fall sway in the de-
velopment Of their property. we feel
confident he will never betray the
trust, and predict that within less
than one year he viii place the Big
Lode mine on a paying basis.
Anderson and Culp are still drift
ing Mt the bottom of the Lum Burg
shaft, and the rich gold ore vein of
which mention was made in last
weeks BULLETIN, is increasing both
in quantity and quality.
r. Il. Brown is meeting with great
success in the Last Chance mine,
and is increasing his force of men
as fast as occasion requires.
Colonel Miller is rolling out first
class ore from the good old Tahoma
mine, for a big run before winter
spreads its hoary locks over us.
George Tins has about 40 tons of
rich Jessie Benton ore on the dump
and will soon make another run at
the Tahoma mill.
There are no idle men in Atlanta
and everybody wears the smile of
content.

Cal G. Clawson, who went out to
Salt Lake last week to attend the
irrigation congress, has returned
looking all the better for his trip
From him we learn that the Pacific
Coast States and Territories we've
all represented at the congress, and
also Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado,
Arkansas and Texas. About 800
representative were present. aud
considerable discussion had on the
several phases Of the question Of ir-
rigation that came before he body.
The work Of the congress was sum
med up in resolution asking the
Government TO cede the arid lands
to the States to be irrigated by
them under such restrictions as
may be thought conducive to the
best interests of the people.-Key-
stone, Ketchum.
The Snohomish Sun thus rebukes
the detestable croaker: "Out upon
you. croaker, sing hey, the whining
hoodoo that you are. You have
caused promising towns TO retro
grade TO sleepy villages; yon have
retarded the development of vast
areas Of country that, but for you,
might now be hourishing like a
green bay tree; you have talked the
sap out of multitudes of young men
and caused them to seek the bowl
that inebriates; and you have made
hosts of active hustling men weary
of this troubled dream of life. Oh,
croaker, you Of the long face and
whining tongue, HE thee to a hem
merry. Gather myself by the straps
of the boots and flip myself off the
face of the earth that is encountered
with thy presence.

MOUNTAIN HOME RESERVOIRS.

We are always glad to reproduce
any article relating to the prosperity
of Mt Home, or any other town in
Gilmore, when such news comes
through the columns of respectable
newspaper. The following we find
i'm the Boise Democrat;
"A. w. Hagcr. president and man
ager of the Mountain Home Irriga-
ton Company, an organization in
corpor:.ted under the laws Of Hi
nois, reported TO the Ogden Com
mercial a short time ago: This COM
pany is engaged in putting in an
extensive system Of irrigation, which
when completed will reclaim 5000
acres of arid land in the vicinity Of
Mountain Home. The system adj
opted is one Of artificial reservoirs,
built in position where nature has
provided assistance to the skill Of
man and so rendered the task of
building the reservoirs easy. Five
of these reservoirs will be con-
structed by this company in locali-
ties where they will gather the sur
plus water from an area Of $50
square miles Of the deepest snow
region of Idaho.
The smallest of these reservoirs
will contain 4.500,0O0.000 square
feet of water and the largest &c.
0OO,0oo,0O0 square feet.
The company expects to complete
the reservoir. at the lowest level Of
the proposed series Of reservoirs,
this fall, SO that it will be ready for
use next season.

TWO FRlcHrFuL ACCIDENTS.

Last Saturday, while Mrs. ]. T..
Gilman and Mrs. ii. Swanholm of
this place were returning from
visit to Mr.. Melton's ranch, on the
South Boise river, they met with an
experience that will not soon be
cffaced from their memories. They
occupied a road-eart with one horse
attached, and when within a few
feet of the top of Green's grade the
animal became unmanageable and
backed Off Of the road. precipitating
the ladies, cart and horse down the
steep bluff to the river below, dis
lance of 70 feet or more. The horse
was almost instantly killed and the
cart badly wrecked, but the ladies
miraculously escaped Serious injury.
Mrs. Swanholm received several Sc
we're bruises and has since been con-
fined to her room, but her oompan-
ion was more fortunate, escaping
with but slight injuries. The stage
fortunately came along soon after
the occurrence, and Charlie Grim,
the driver, and Judge Golden,
passenger, rendered the ladies all
the assistance in their power.
Another accident. we fear Of
more serious termination. occurred
Monday on the Atlanta road, about
five miles from Rocky Bar Uncle
Dick Tregaskis had been to Atlanta
with load Of fruit and vegetables,
and on his return with an empty
wagon, coming down a rough in
cline one wheel struck a boulder
with such force that il unseated Mr..
Tregaskis and he was violently
thrown from the high seat To the
rough roadside, knocking him
senseless for time. The old gen
tleman, after reviving, and with
great effort, managed to crawl into
the wagon (the horses having nobly
halted at the time of the accident),
where he lay in great agony for sew
eral hours, hoping for the appear
ance Of some traveller, who for
tunately came in the person of Lon
Young. on his way from Atlanta to
the Bar. Realizing the situation,
Mr.. Young took charge Of the team
and brought the unfortunate man to
this lace, where he is lying in crit
cal condition. DIR. All Fong was
called and though no bones were
found broken he thinks his internal
injuries are serious. Mr.. Tregaskis
is a well known pioneer Of Califor-
mia and Idaho, and has experienced
much better DAYS, and it seems
cruel that he should now, at his adj
vanced age. be compelled to strug-
gle SO hard for his daily bread. He
has three grown sons who were
reared in affluence by the now poor
and generous hearted Uncle Dick
Harvey, residing at Seattle, Wash.
Charles at Broadford, Idaho, and
Milton at Oakland, Cal.
