THE dance given last Friday night,
in Odd Fellows hall, by the young
ladies' orchestra, was largely attended
and success in every respect, being
beyond the expectations OF those CIV
ing the dance. The ball opened
about 9 o'clock with the grand march,
and it was 6 o'clock in the morning
when the last note was sounded.
Mrs. John German gave the supper
and every rybody pronounced it hrst-
class. The members of the orchestra
we're Miss Amelia Jones, violin; Miss
Pauline Davis, organ; Mrs. A. 3.
Day, violincello; Miss Theresa Haug'
guitar. They have a good little or
chestra, and with few months more
practice, judging by their proficiency
for what little time they have devoted
to music since the orchestra was or
ganized, they will be sklllful perform
srs. They we're highly compllmentso
on the good music they furnished fo'
the dance Friday night.

Miss ANNA CAMPBELL, convicted
of having circulated bogus coin, cried
bitterly on leaving the other day for
the house of correction in Detroit,
Michigan. She protested her inno-
cencs. Sne said the three bad IS
pieces that she passed came into her
possession without exciting suspicion
that they were bogus. If every one
who has passed bogus coin in Idaho
should be convicted and sent to the
house of correction in Michigan, how
many of us would be left? Idaho
would be well nigh depopulated. Bo-
gus coins have recently been in pos

town, but they were passed and

were genuine. If there is no further

In 1849, in our country, says the
Seattle Mining News, the Missouri
river was tho border land of civiliza-
ton; 1900 miles of trackless deserts
and unexplored mountain ranges, in
tested with wild beasts and wilder
savages, lay between the western
verge of civilization and the new FL
dorado on the Pacific coast. But no
such barrier could stay the tide of
hardy adventures that swarmed
across the continent in great caravans
Of brave, determined men and heroic
women. Through infinite labor and
privations they reached the promised
land. The tide of immigration sept
all over the mountain ranges and
valleys of the west, and in forty years
has produced more than $4,000, ,000,-
900 in gold and silver, actual money
created and added to our country's
resources. But this grand output
OF the precious metals is not the only
wonderful result obtained. 1t ena.

large as Europe; it has given eight
States to tbs Union and three granc
Territories unrivaled in their resources
and mineral wealth and variety o

of like size on the globe. Thes'
grand and beneficial results of pre-
cious metal mining stands without |

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The States
mans correspondent sought an inter-
view With Senator Dubois tonight
in regard to the bill that has been ;n-
troduced providing for : local self
government for Utah. In reply to :
request for his views be said:
: i i : wise, conservative propo-
sitlon and, withal, tho measure il y
just one. The frequent and earnest
professions Of the Mormon people,
finding expression throughindividuals
and from tbs authorities Of the
church, cannot be lightly brushed
aside. # these people are utterly
lacking in sincerity and if their socis-
y i playing : subtle game, the indi-
cations which are presented 70 u Of
their attitude certainly do not show it.
"On the other hand, the past con-
duct Of the Mormons bellies their
present attitude. In the minds Of
those familiar with their history there
is q lurking suspicion that they are
not honest. If they arc honest in
the professions that they make, it
would Be the height Of cruelty to de-
prive them Of the rights Of American
institutions. II they are not honest
it would be = far-reaching calamity
to give them absolute self government
in Utah.
"This bill is just compromise.
Under it the federal government will
still retain jurisdiction over the ques-
tions that involve those principles
which have been At stake throughout
this long controversy. If the Nor
mons shall abuse the added power
given to the people of the Territory,
the government can restrict their ex-
erclse of the franchise or entirely re-
move it. All demands for statehood
for Utah will be given up until it
shall be seen what disposition is made
of the enlarged franchise.
81 seriously object to statehood
for Utah, but l am not opposed to
this measure. It is my belief that
the Mormons are not acting in per-
feet candor, not without some mental
reservations, in their present declara.
tions against polygamy and against
church rule IN temporal matters. Yet
I would be 10th indeed to utterly dis.
regard their professions, and l vel
come proposition that in its opera
ton will establish their sincerity, il
they are sincere, and at the same
time clear away the doubts Of homes
minds. This bill puts the Mormon
on probation and we must await tn,
results"

CAPTAIN JAS. BAXTER, of Boise,
contributes an article to the Demo
crat on the manufacture of the arti-
fetal article known as Portland Ce-
ment." Mr.. Baxter says there is
within two hours walk Of Boise City
rock deposits from which a cement
can be obtained that is as good, or
even better, than the English pro-
duct. The Buffalo Cement company
have quarries that cover 200 acres,
and ono acre on an average produced
$4,000 barrels of cement. Mr.. Bax-
ter made qualitative analysis of the
cement near BOISE and found it to
run almost exactly like that OF Buffalo
in silicic acid, alumina, lime and mag
nesa. This rock in both localities is
really an impure limestone. 1t is OF
grayish, blush tint, and emits a
metallic, ringing sound when struck
with hammer. This cement IS used
in the construction of sidewalks, eel
lars, for the foundations of buildings
and many other purposes. Mr.. Bax-
ter says mill capable of reducing
from two to three tons of rock pei
hour to a commercial cement woule
cost in Boise $4,000. The produc
| of the mill would be worth $500 PEI
day. The cost would not exceed
$144 daily.

Labor and Compet,tton.

When American farm labor is hired
by foreign mill labor to produce some
thing different from what it Is produc-
ing. there is no competition between
the two. Competition is impossible.
The foreign mill products with which
the American farm labor is paid, and
which by exchange become the final
product of the American mill labor,
cannot enter into competition with
farm labor. They enter only into com.
petition here with protected field labor.
The only way that foreign mill
owner can enter into competition with
m American mill owner is to hire an
American farmer to produce farm prod
ucts and accept mill products in pay
ment. In what other way is it posi-.
BILE for the mill owner to ret his prod
Gets into the hands of an American,
except by employing him and paying

performed by which an American can

of foreign labor, except by gift or in
payment for his labor.

Reciprocity In Earnest.

1t appears that our treaty with Brazil
was obtained under false pretenses, or
else under misapprehension. Brazil
supposed that she was to have
something of monopoly OF our
markets in exchange for entrance
into hers. Her negotiators assert that
they understood that these reciprocity
treaties were not to be general, but
were peculiar privileges accorded only
to specially favored nations.
In other words, Brazil supposed that
reel procity ment, as the Republicans
declared it to mean, an extension OF
protection, a permission for Brazil, for
instance, to tax American consumers
even as our own manufacturers tax u.s.
Instead of this, Brazil learns from
recent treaties made in Europe that
reciprocity means an extension Of the
area of free trade. Instead of reducing
duties, and SO removing the obstacles
to international traffic, Brazil sees that
the Republicans propose to remove
these obstacles by means Of numerous
treaties.
This is of course very illogical. and
it is not surprising that our Southern
neighbors misconceived the whole
scheme 1t is great system of fraud
and false pretense, aiding to the vices
of Professionalism is robbery-the
falsehood of reciprocity, which is bunco-
steering. Perhaps like smuggling, re-
ciprocity may teach this country the
value of free trade.s
