FACTS AsOOT eRANaE vILLE.

t;raneeville is centrally located In the great
Camas Prairie of Idaho county, ldaho-a
vast region OF country with the natural re-
sources to make a rich and prosperous com
munity and support popuious and wealthy
c,tv. The farming lands of Camas Prairie
comprise nearly million acres OF the most
productive wheat, hay and orchard lands In
the Northwest. The opening of the ad Join
ing Neg Perez Indian reservation lands to
settlement during 1894 will add 10000 acres
Of additional arabic lands to the resources
surrounding Grangeville, thus encouraging
.he speedy construction Of railroads, the ab-
sence OF which has hitherto retarded the
growth and development OF the rich ana
fruitful country OF which Grangeville Is the
o mmerciai metropolis.
Grangeville Is the prettiest town in Idaho.
II is situated in the most productive part OF
Camas Prairie and surrounded by wheat
fields, hay fields, gardeos and orchards. Two
miles south is the ii IN Der line OF vast forests
of the very best timber for building purposes;
while great deposits Of msgnesa rock, mar
HE. granite, lime, onyx opal and other
building material exist within ten miles OF
the town, Water is Obtained at n depth
of twelve to twenty feet. Three-mie creek
runs through the town, affording, when
utilized, unlimited water supply for large
incubation, and power for manufacturing
enterprises.
The mineral resources OF the country sur
rounding Grangeville are very great. Inc
old rIacer mining camps OF ORC Elmo, ELK
City, Florence, Warrens, and the rich bars of
the Clearwater and Salmon rivers, are all d.
rectly tributary TO and dependent upon
Grsngeville for every pound OF their supplies
Great hydraulic and dredging plants are be =
ing established in these camps to extract the
a ha huf ali
heretofore lain idle for lack OF means to de-
velop them.
Quartz mining n all these camps Is rapid
ly assuming the proportions Of great In
dustry and with increased transportation
facilities a popula ion OF 100000 sou's WIZ
find subsistence In Idaho county. The gold
quartz mines OF Elk City, in number, extent
and richness, promise to make that the
greatest gold camp in the Pacific Northwest
The low price OF silver Is turning the atten
ton OF mining men 10 gold-pIoducing prop
critics, and az the mineral zones tributary 70
Grangeville are rich in gold their great de.
velopment In the near future Is assured
The appropria lon of sls500O by the Idaho
legislature to build a system OF state wagon
roads to these mines, giving them an outlet
to Grangevllle, will greatly increase the
prosperity OF the mines and OF the point
from which they receive their supplies. The
opening OF the idle Indian reservation lands
and the consequent cons truction OF Northern
Pacific ard Union Pacific railroad extern
siOns, will also be very important factor II
promoting the growth of Grangeville, since
this is the nearest trading and outhttini
p,int to the largest and most fruitful part o
the lands thus thrown open to white settle
ment. The entire region is n fruitful one.

Brazilian Government.
Rio JANRIRo, Aug. 10.-Notwithstand-
ing the rigid censorship of all messages
and the absolute prohibition Of commune
cation by the government, the cores
pendent 10 enabled to report the situa-
ton in the capital. The government was
surprised and alarmed at the extent Of
the revolution in the Rio Grande do Sui
owing to the popularity of Rear-Admiral
Wandelkok in naval circles. President
Peixotte and bis cabinet feared that there
was widespread conspiracy against his
administration. The loyalty of the navy
was suspected, and the first step taken
by the government was to prohibit all
telegraphic communication to the south.
This was followed by an order prohibit
ing transmission of cipher messages of
any nature over the wires in Brazil. AS
far as can be learned the general senti-
meut of the country favors the revolu-
tionary movement The federal troops
in this case are constantly under arms.
Political messages are prohibited, the
government fearing concerted action in
several states should Rio Grande do
Sui have free communication with
Bahia and Pernambuco.
