Oh, what q vacancy there is,
Since my dear brother died.

How hard II is for me to hide

Though one years passed, yet still weep,

Since my dasr brother died.

THE telephone company has raised
rates. The old rate was two bits;
now you cannot talk at the telephone
for less than fifty cents. This is con-
trary to the agreement of the compa-
nv before the line was put up. The
company was then full of fine prom
ises, smiling urbanity aud magnani-
nous generosity. They would never
think of raising the price above
twenty-five cents per message; but
now they have gone and done it.
Talk is cheap, but not cheap over the
telephone any more. IT'S said that
he who makes two blades of grass
grow where only one grew before is
a public bencfactor, but we don't
know about the outfit that rakes in
four bits where before they took IN
hut two. We have some doubts
about this raise resulting IN any fnan-
cial gain to the company. In fact, 1t
is almost sure thing that the receipts
will be less than heretofore, and thev
ought to be less. No one will now
telephone except in cases OF great
urgency. The only good luck we
wish the telephone company is that
under the raised rates they will lack
a whole lot of paying running ex-
penses.

THE OPAL MINES

A Caldwell special to the States
man, dated March I'd, says:
Messrs. F. B. Hardy and ID. d.
Campbell, of this city, returned this
evening from the opal mines, having
made the round trip since 8 o'clock
today with several hours to spare at
the mines. Mr.. Hardy was seen to-
night and expressed great astonish-
ment and satisfaction at the prospect
there. He says that Messrs. Shirley,
Buchanan, Anchor and Host, the
owners of the Shirley group of mines,
are pushing development and taking
out some magnificent rock. One lit
tie pocket taken out to-day is valued
at $3.50 and some $500 mined within
a few days are awaiting the touch of
the lapidary.
Opaline, he says, is rapidly filing
up with people, and the prospeotor's
tent can be seen in every direction.
The road from Caldwell to these
mines is in good condition and the
main location of the Shirley group
can be seen at a point seven miles
distant from this city.
Representatives of New York and
Chicago capital are now on the
ground and any number of Idaho
people. All reports GO to show tina,
these deposits are rich and extensive
and that genuine opal boom is set
ting in.

WHAT II a PLUrocRArs

That is question that was asked
here few days ago and it resulted in
search in Webster's Unabridged
fer the word, but the search was in
vain. Webster gives no such word.
Then encyclopedias were consulted
with the same result. The only
words found that in any way resemble
the word sought, in sound, was Plu-
10 and plutonian, neither of which
h,s meaning At all akin TO that Of
piutocrat as il is generally under
stood, although, there is no exact
agreement as to the accepted mean
ing Of "plutocrat." Some say it
means dictator, Others that it is one
who seeks to rule with wealth and
secure the enactment Of laws to swell
his millions at the expense of the peo-
pie, and Others that the word is synon-
ymous with autocrat. The word has
been used a great deal of late, and
political writers have employed it
with as much confidence and assurance
as if they knew exactly its meaning,
derivation and everything thereto
pertaining. and the people in the
common walks of life have picked up
the word and fred it off whenever
they thought the occasion or subject
required it, and any public man who
did not do exactly as the people
thought he ought to have done, was
forthwith branded as a "pIutocrat. y
This word has vigorous sound and
everybody. snpposing it embraced .
whole herd of burning epithets in
condensed form, hurled it at an enc.
my under the impression that it was
a sumner, whatever its meaning. |,
is always fred out on the wings Of 9
voice freighted with tragic emphasis
and deep meaning commensurate
with the conceived strong, vigorous
double-edged and many pointed, but
mysteriously epithetical sound of the
word. If man brands you, or any
member of your party, as "pluto
crat," ask him to explain himself ol
hereafter hold his peace.

BURGLARS At WORK.


Statesman, IN.
Sometime Thursday night burglars
entered the residence Of David Her-
on, 1896 Idaho street, and going to
the room where Representatives Bal
laLtine and lawson were psacefully
sleeping, went through the pockets
Of those gentlemen, securing e6O
from the former and 800 from the
latter. There were several other
members Of the Legislature sleeping
in different rooms in the house, but
they were undisturbed.
When the Legislators took rooms
at the Heron residence il was mntu-
ally agreed to that no doors shonld
be locked, lest some of the belated
lawmakers might, on many occasions,
have to stay mp all night. The agree
ment renamed unbroken and il Va
q case OF 1open sesame" wherever
the burglars went Thursday night.
Mr.. Lawson had Eve $40 gold
pieces in bucksk,n purse, which be
had placed in pocket containing
some silver before going to bed. The
burglars did not touch the silver.
The same night burglar, possibl,
the same one, entered AL Ostner',
house, corner Washington and Sev-
enth streets, where Senator Campbell
rooms. The burglar went through
Mr.. Campbell's clothes and secured
in the neighborhood Of $40.
The door to his room vas locked
but the lock was picked.
In both cases the thief worked $.
noiselessly that no one was disturbed
The cases we're reported to the po
lice, but little hope is entertained o
the apprehension of the guilty part,
or parties.
About three weeks ago q bnrgla
went through VIM. Paxton's resi-
dence where Representative Yearial
and Committee Clerk Simpson hav'
rooms. The former was relieved O
$24 and the latter of $50. They di,
not report their losses until yester
day, but the inclination to sympathiz
with the other unfortunates led ther
to divulge the secret.

THE wild man of AIturas, Norman
NJ. Ruick, who has been a perpetual
nuisance in the State Senate since
the opening day, and has accom-
plished nothing, neither for himself
nor the party that elected him (the
Populists) except the building of a
monument of disgrace constructed of
different materials abuse,
obstruction and continual CAB minus
logic, wit, refinement or anything else
that would raise it above the low

been a standing candidate for since
the Legislature convened. He ad-
dressed Senators Mcpherson and
John G. Brown. Ruick said he
would place them on record, and ac-
companied the remark with fiat and
insulting oath. Mr.. Brown whacked
him in the face, but on account of his
great amount of cheek, we'll developed
and galvanized, he was not injured.
Ruick struck one blow and thea they
were separated. Ruick started in to
make a record for the Populists and
he has made it, but whether or not
the party is proud of it time alone
will tell. One thing is certain; he
has not succeeded in covering it with
anv brilliant glory reflected from his
Legislative career.

THE Haley Times, one of the most
enterprising newspapers in the State,
takes right view of the benefits that
Alturas county would derive from the
construction of the State wagon road.
The measure is not for she benefit,
alone, of the counties through which
the road is to pass, but for every Sec
ton of the State. The main road
can be easily tapped from both sides
and counties through which the road
will not pass can form connections
with it. A market will be opened
by the development OF the minera
resources of Central Idaho, for the
farmers of all parts of the State.
