Is Nampa's Claim Correctf

Nampa claims the distinction OF
having elected the first lady to an Of
fee in the State. We don't know
about that. Jerusalem, in this coun-
ty, elected a lady school trustee-Mrs'
John Daley-at the last general
school election. Now a comparison
of dates is in order to determine
which place is entitled to the d's''nc-
ton, honor and gallautIy of being the
first to elect a lady. If Nampa
election was for school trustee, hon
ors are even.

ME wEAKEsED.

Charley Brown came to town last
Tuesday with load Of strawberries
and we forthwith nabbed him, kno~-
ing bis powers as an easy, of-hand
talker, and queried him as to his
ability to tell true strawberry tale
Of large dimensions without serious
or permanent injury to bis conscience.
We would regret with exceeding
great regretfulness and mental pangs
to secure good item from any man
at the expense Of his peace Of con-
science. Charley said he had never
slain his fathers nor any other mans
cherry tree with Ratchet, nor had
he laid low such tree with any kind
Of cutter, and he thought he could,
without much premeditation or NAL
ice aforethought, do the subject full
and ample justice. He was told to see
the Caldwell Tribune and Payette In
dependent and see if he could not go
'em one better. He saw, but weak
ened. Like the ancient Greek "he
came, be saw" but unlike the Greek
he could not conquer. His early
training and the benign influences Of
the pure and holy air of the New Je-
rusalem, hard by the bowling Pay
ette, where he has lived SO long, have
stimulated, built up and made tender
his conscience to such an extent that
to even attempt to outdo the straw
berry tale tellers of the papers nam.
ed would be positively dangerous
and bis conscience even now is scarce
ly able to stand up, being badly in
jured on the hind legs by the severe
blow received as a result of the fail
ure to do the subject full justice IL
accordance with strong intimatior
gwen at FIRST that he could. The in
ability to live up to free and vol
untary agreement was a hard lick
but he says he hopes to bring his con
science back to its primitive, SCUM
condition by soaking its hind legs u
arnica for few weeks, aided by th
soothing salve of earnest, soulfr
PRAYER heavily laden with the weigh
of sorrowful regret firmly fastene
with the diamond hitch on the ger
eral load of wailing invocation cor
signed to the Throne of Grace an
Mercy. We feel slightly discou
aged over this first failure but do NJ
despair. Boise county has never y
/, been outdone, and there are sti
: strong hopes of victory. We will

S ael and Eli Burson. Then If y

Cattle with tuberculosis.

TRENTON, N. j., Feb DIR. Henry
F. Formal, one of the leading patholo-
gists of this country, has made an ex-
animation of the milk and meat of
tuberculosis cattle at the request of the
state dairy commissioner, and takes
decided stand in opposition to the pre-
vailing views on the subject. He says
that he is convinced that the dangers
from the use of milk and meat of cattle
affected by tuberculosis are much over
drawn. He says authorities differ as to
the effect of milk and meat of cattle
affected by tuberculosis, but the exami-
nations just made show that the danger
has been greatly overestimated. Elk
periments were made on guinea pigs
which were inoculated in the anterior
chamber of the eye with samples of the
milk, but after eight weeks no tubercle
bacilli were discovered DR.. Formal
also made an examination of the meat of
cattle affected with the disease, but has
never been able to find any bacilli. He
thinks the only objection to the use of
this milk is that it is less nourishing
than the milk of healthy cows. There
is little or no danger of catching the
disease from it.

DENVER, Feb. 2.-"Peg Leg" Eldridge
and Bert Curtis, two Rio Grande train
robbers, sentenced to life imprisonment
in the United States penitentiary and
who are in the county jail, last night
made desperate attempt to escape.
They, together with other prisoners,
have been allowed to exercise in the COR
ridor of the jail. When the time came
to return the prisoners to their cells,
Eldridge and Curtis hid themselves. In
some way Eldridge had secured razor.
When single guard, who was in charge
of the prisoners, missed the two prison
ers he began to search for them. Sud
denly he was seized from behind by
Curtis while Eldridge held razor over
the guards throat, demanding the keys
of the jail The guard, instead of com
plying, began shouting for assistance,
which soon arrived, and the two men
were overpowered and returned to THEN
cells.

WILL MAKE A CANVASS.

The announcement comes from Mr..
Sawnie Robinson of Dallas just after a
conference with Hogg and three or
four of his friends in Tyler that the
governor will stand for the nomina-
ton for second term, or rather will
run for it, for it is stated that Govern
or Hogg will make vigorous canvass
of the state in his own behalf. There
must be some mistake in the report
that Governor Hogg will make a can
vass before his fellow democrats for a
denomination. 1t has never been sup
posed in seriousness that he would not
be candidate, but when we are told
that the governor intends to abandon
his Office during his first term and
make thorough canvass for vindi-
catien we are asked to believe some
thing for which we have no precedent
in history. 1t is long
favored custom for public officers
to offer continuation of their services
after the expiration of the first term
and the people are generally generous
enough to give them what is usually
termed vindication unless they have
made some very grave mistakes. At
any rate, his record while he is in, is
presumed to be sufficiently acceptable
to the people to demand second term
for any one of their public servants,
and it's merits should speak for it
without a personal canvass. How
ever, THE News will make no protest
against the contemplated canvass. 1t
just desires to oall attention to its
novelty. THE NEWS cannot remem.
Der of a single instance where a Dem.
ocratic governor felt it nee
essary to leave his Office and

has just filed for term. The peo-
pie are generally supposed 20 End out
during the first term whether a man
suits them for governor or not, and
if he does not manage the Office to
their liking nothing he could promise
to do, if reelected, would have much
weight. Moreover, if Governor

canvass in defense of his administra.
ton than Chairman Reagan has been

commission, his name is Mud.

Another feature has been the decline OF
over points in dlstilling and cattle
feeding, the speculation i'll which is now
being enlivened by "A delightfully."- frank
controversy between certain Chicago
stock jobbers who became interested in
the enterprise and the substantial
element in the property. 1t certainly is
amusing to hear Chicago stock operator
complain of the methods of Wall street.
and criticise as injudicious natural
rise of 10 or IL points in security which
every friend of the property, the Chicago
hquidations included, has maintained
all along was worth a great deal more
money than it has been selling for in
the sarket. Probably after the Chica-
goans have recovered their stock Wall
street will hear less of the failures of the
mechanical methods of the distilling
company, of alleged liquidation and of
the new competition.
Mondays market was dull and heavy,
still the net declines have not wiped out
all of the improvements made earlier in
the week. The majority of the stocks
are higher than they were last Saturday,
and the only conspicuous members of
the minority are distillers, Louis
vile and Nashville sugar re-
tiners. The weekly bank state
ment shows further increase, this time
of nearly S6,0O0.000, in the amount of
lawful money held by the banks. The
loans have increased about the same
extent, while the deposits are larger by
the sum of both items. The net result
is an increase of 81, 900, 900 in the surplus
reserve, bringing that item up to $780,
100000. The closing was regular.
