for chief executive of the nation will call
all voters to the polls. The Republicans

Joint Resolution Offered Making Oct. II a
General Holiday-The sundry Civil Bill
Again Taken Up In the House.
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, May 24-The bill appro-
priating 100000 for a public building in
Oakland, Cal, passed after an explanation
by Stanford and protest by Cockrell,
that the condition of the treasury did not
justify it.
The Senate bill appropriating $500, 900
for public building at San Diego. Cal,
passed after similar explanation by Stan
ford and without protest.
The calendar was laid aside and the bill
providing for the punishment Of violations
Of the treaty rights of aliens taken up.
Morgan, continuing the advocacy Of the
bill, said in reference to the Italians killed
in New Orleans, that the government was
in pitiable condition when the secretary
Of state was compelled to resort to the Sc
cret service funds to keep peace with for
eign governments. 1t would be impossible
to frame and pass through Congress fed
eral bill covering all cases of violations of
aliens rights, and the only way to do so
was as provided in the pending bill.
After some discussion between Gray and
Morgan, the latter moved, with the assent
of the Committee on Foreign Relations that
the bill go over till next December The
matter went over without action.
Pettigrew, from the committee on the
quadro-centennial, reported a joint resolu-
ton directing the president to proclaim a
general holiday Oct. II, 1892, commemorate
ing the 400th anniversary Of the discovery
of America. Adjourned.

DENVER, May Especial telegram to
THE HERALD. The initial run of the Rio
Grande Western Chicago limited train is
proving to be altogether gratifying sue
cess. The purpose of General Dodge, Pas
senger Agent Bennett and and other enter
prising officers was to afford passengers
the opportunity to take in the incompar-
able scenery of Utah and Colorado without
the sacrifice of the additional time hereto
fore consumed by this route. How COM
| pletely this is being accomplished may be
determined by the fact that the new
schedule cuts down the running time be-
tween Ogden and Chicago just twenty-four
hours. The Limited pulled out of Salt
Lake at 9 rs Sunday evening on the tick of
time to the dot. A hundred pas
sengers are glorying in the beau
ties of the scenery and INDUCING

Cassie county is about one hundred and
ten miles long and will average about forty
five broad. Its north line is designated by
Snake river in its meanderings, which runs
its entire length from east to west. 1t is
bounded on the west by Owyhee county,
Idaho, on the south by Nevada and Utah,
and on the east by Oneida and Bingham
counties, Idaho. This county was created
out of Owyhee county in 1879 and contains
population of about five thousand. The
climate is dry, the air cool and exhilerating
in summer in the evening, and very warm
and productive of vegetable growth during
the day. The winters are not severe and
very little snow falls in the valley. The
range for cattle, horses and sheep is fine
and very extensive; no better soil can be
found in the entire state. Every
acre of arabic land in the county can be
irrigated, it being only question of capi.

BINGHAM COUNTY, IDA,

Its Advantages, Resources Opportunities and
Prospects.
To the Editor of THE HERALD:
Bingham is the great empire county of
Idaho. Its extent OF territory, it's number
of people, it's varied resources and its
wealth make it the first and leading county
Of the state. In extent of territory it is
larger than several of the states in the
Union. In population 1t is at the head of
the census list of the counties in the state
In resources its wealth cannot be COM
puted in dollars and cents. Among it's
possessions may be counted more acres of
arabic and irrigable land, more miles of
irrigating canals and bitches, better water
supplies, more thrifty and prosperous
towns, more school districts and postofices
than can be found in any one county in the
state. 1t leads too in its number of miles
of railroads and telegraph lines
Far away TO the north and east its noun
tains and foot hills are covered with
valuable timber; in the Tetons are the
happy hunting grounds for the brave
hunter who will chase the BEAR the moose,
the elk and the deer; on the hills that sur
round and overlook the upper Blackfoot are
magnificent grazing lands for cattle and
sheep; in the Cariboo are rich mines of gold
and silver, and along the winding Snake
river the precious golden metal shines In
all the sand In the eastern part Of the
county are the now noted soda springs,
whose celebrated Idanha waters are appre-

good reason given why the government
should not loan money to farmers on
land security, upon the same terms that it
loans to the National banks on bonds as
security. Land is as staple security as
bonds and some farmers think they are as
worthy of favors as bankers. Their ideas,
whether right or wrong, are moving the
people to action. If wrong, ridIcule will
not right them.
1t seems probable that the Democratic
party lost its last opportunity in the defeat

FRANCIS WILSON.


Francis Wilson and his excellent COM
pany drew another good house at the
theatre last evening, the attendance being,
ii anything, somewhat larger than on the
opening of the season. There was the
repetition of the scenes Of the night pre-
vious and among the audience were many
who had seen 1.-THE Merry Monarch at
least half dozen times. Miss CHASER con-
tinues to improvs on acquaintance, and the
chorus was strong and sonorous as before.
There was more vim and snap than on the
opening night, and the applause and laugh
ter were boundless.
The "Merry Monarch" goes again to-
night, and there is no question as to the
size Of the house that will greet him.
