AUGUST "a, 1892.
News reached here Sunday after.

nation as governor on the peoples
ticket. The event occasioned much
rejoicing. Nearly all the business
places were decorated with flags.
Among the most artistic was the
Nevada hotel. mick" will never
be outdone. The whole front of the
building was beautifully decorated.
But the prettiest feature of this
grand display was right under the
BIG FLAG where the streamers bear
ing the names "Hon. A. ]. Crook,
our next Governor, and J. B.Wright,
Lieutenant" were flying. AS the
grand old flag yielded it's silken
folds to the mountains evergreen
zephyrs, which heralded the close
of the day, each fold seemed to say
"you are my choice"
In less than half an hour after
the news of Crooks nomination
reached town, the streets were
thronged with men, women and
children. The hurrahs for Crook
that went up fairly made the noun.

Captain James Gum.

In Captain Gum, no0inee for
Congress, the peoples party OF
Idaho have an admirable represent
alive. Pure and honorable in per-
sonal character, with an alert intel
ligence and facile mind, he is a
thinker, and student of American
political history, as we'll as prac-
tical man of affairs. His public
addresses are characterized by the
clearness, point and philosophical
breadth of view that make them
eminently calculated for campaign
education" in the peoples party
cause.
Nothing is so much needed in a
republic as genuine and widespread
education in political history and
economic principles. Without it
our republic cannot be made to
stand. Without it the present dan
ger of its falling irretrievably into
the hands of a plutocracy of wealth
cannot be averted. If the mass of
the American voters cannot be kept
intelligent enough to distinguish
between sophistry and reason it is
certain that nothing can keep the
republic a free and growing one.
Like people, like government"
This makes it imperative that q
would-be free people should call to
the front, from among themselves,
honest and earnest men like MIR.
Gum, who have at once the com.
bined studious and active type OF
mind, fitting them to be teachers
of the principles, and actors in the
field, of government.
The third party in Idaho is to be
congratulated upon having found.
and chosen at the start, such q
teacher and leader in its nominee
for congress.
We will publish, next week, a BIZ
ographical sketch of Captain Gum

T. B. MULKEY and Geo. +. Hod-
son, both of whom left Ketchum
over a year ago to seek fortunes in
another field, rode into town last
Tuesday with regular prospectors'
outfit. They had been living in the
Ceur d'Alene country most of the
time since they left here, but when
the mines were shut down and all
business suspended, rather than be
idle, they concluded to employ
their time at prospecting. They
left Wallace on the I'd day of July
with the intention of prospecting
the country lying between the Ceur
d'Alenes and Wood River. When
they reached Warren's Diggings,
which is about $50 miles from Wal
lace, they did their first practical
prospecting. They remained there
ten or twelve days and found sew
eral gold and silver lodges. and also
placers. From Warren's they went
to Deadwood Basin. where they
spent four or FIVE days, thence to
Bear Valley. They visited Alton
district, between the waters of the
South Salmon and Middle Fork.
A number of claims have been To-
Gated there, rich in gold and silver,
that would be considered valuable
property if transportation facilities
could be had. But as there are no
wagon roads in the country and it
being too expensive to pack the ore
out on mules, the mines will proba-
bly, remain undeveloped until some
enterprising Jay Gould or other
builds a railroad through that min
eral belt. Tho gentlemen were COR
daily received here by their many
friends, and after taking q good rest
they will again strike out for the
mountains.

The Return Of the Victorious populiat
Celebrated last Monday.

Motropolltnn Hall.

Upon the announcement by tele-
gram early in the day Monday that
the peoples party nominees for
Governor and Congress, viz: Hon.
A. j. Crook and Captain James
Gum, and the Custer county dele
CATION to the Boise convention
would reach Ketchum that day,
preparations were Immediately set
on foot for an impromptu ratifica-
ton that evening. Main street was
deliberately decorated with bunting,
tar barrels were stacked up on each
end of the street and made ready
for huge bonfres, anvils were placed
in the streets at several places, giant
powder charges were placed on the
bluffs north of town and call sent
around for the Ketchum brass band.
Such was the condition of the town
when the train pulled in with the
expected party, and the first salute
of giant reached their ears and
rumbled up and down the valley
before the train had come to a stand
still. Several extra carriages were
in waiting at the depot and Judge
Lewis took our future governor in
charge, while Captain Baxter took
possession of the Gum that will
shortly begin to play upon the
peoples enemies. The other gen.
tlemen were also given special at
tention as to conveyances and the
procession then moved into town
amid the firing of salutes and the
hoarse hurrahs of enthusiastic cit
izens-they were all populists.
In the evening Metropolitan Hall
was literally jammed with interest
ed listeners to addresses from Cap
tain Gum, the peoples nominee
for congress, Governor" Crook, r..
A. Pierce of the Silver Messenger,
N. NJ. Ruick, state central commit
teeman, VIM. E. Trapp of Clayton,
and others. The meeting had been
called to order at $50 o'clock by
Mr.. F. K. Gillette, who called Mr..
Geo. J. Lewis to the chair.
The occasion was of course ION
the spur of the moment" as it were.
and no very lengthy speeches were
made. Those that were made, how
ever, were genuine and earnest and
elected many rounds of applause.
On the rostrum were seated. in ad-
dition to the speakers and chair
man, Hon. /. I. Lewis and Mr.. J.
B. Harper, vice-presidents of the
Ketchum Silver Club, as honorary
guests.
The ladies of Ketchum were not
ably present in full force, and were
the subjects of more than one COM
plimentary allusion during the
course of the programme. The
ladies are true populists. They
seem to be even more thoroughly
imbued with the spirit of reform in
politics than the men-if possible
Hurrah for the ladies. The mothers
