Give Them w ork.

1t is a sad and piteous thing to see
a young girl, timid, shrinking and
poorly clad, trudging from door to
door soliciting work, but we have
seen it twice this week in Boise City.
The girls story-for they are sisters
is that there are eight persons in
their fathers family, and that be is
out of employment, and that they are
in need. What sadder comment
could be made on the inadequacy and
meanness of our social system? Here
is family of little children begging
for employment, no matter how hard
nor how menial, to keep them from
starving, and the father of this help
less brood. although willing and able
to work, denied tho privilege even
while surrounded by affluence on all
sides. Surely there should be way
provided for this man to be employed
and his remuneration should be sutfi-
cent to feed and olothe those who are
dependent on him for their daily
bread. No productive labor is IN
vain, nor does any man lose money
who paws a fair valuation for a days
work which adds to the public store
of wealth. No matter how many are
employed in useful occupations, socl-
ety needs and will take and consume
all their labor produces. Only wages
paid to productive laborers is
wasted; and it is crying shame that
a family of little children should feel
the pangs of hunger in city OF plen-
ty, and in this age, so boas,ful OF Its
enlightenment and Christianity, and
find none to give them employment
that they may earn support.
It shields no one now to say "a
moor man has no right to have fam
Ilv of six or eight children" though
it may be true; it shields no one no
to say "if he had been industrious M
and economical as ! have been' MS
family would not be in need" nor Is
it true: it shields no one now 10 say
that the father of this family is one OF
that class who "look for work WITT
no intention of finding it, neither Ii
that true. The family has lived here
eight or nine months and notw'th
standing the high rents by which sc
much of the laborers' wages are con
sumed, they have supported them
selves. And the fact with which tn''
community has to deal, and shoui'
deal humanely, is that family II

ABE WE SLAVES,
Loesn County Rs,,sv.

Judge Tate, of the United State,
Circuit Court, issued an order to Chief
Arthur, OF the brotherhood of Loco.
motive Engineers, restraining him
from issuing or continuing in force
any rule or order which shall recuire
any employees Of the railroad comp..
ny to refuse to handle any cars or
freight ir course of transportation
from one State to another.
Seven Lake Shore Brotherhood
men were arrested and taken before
Judge Kicks to show cause why they
should not be held in contempt for
violating an order OF the United
States Circuit Court, because they re-
fused to move an engine attached to
a Lake Shore train in which we're cars
of Ann Arbor freight.
This is a new and strange doctrine,
and If Judge Rick's decision be good
law, a man, once he enters the en-
ploy of railway corporation is EN-.
ployed until said corporation sees fit
to discharge him.
In this case what has become of
the boasted liberty of free born
American citizen?
Since Abraham Lincoln issued the
emancipation proclamation. striking
the shsckies from 100000 chattel
slaves, it has been thought, ana SC
held by the courts, and incorporated
into the constitution Of the United
States, that involuntary servitude, ex.
cept as a punishment for crime, could
not exist in the United States. But
this order of Judge R'cks cispels tha'
idea.
A mans freedom is lost when he en-
ters the employ OF railroad company
If the courts can compel an engi
neer to move one engine, they car
compel him to move one hundred
II they can compel him to work one
hour, they can compel him to work ;
day, month, year, or during life
If the corporations can control thu
judiciary and the judiciary the people
in this manner, then our hoasted free
government is blatant farce.
Judg-. Kicks, by this act, trample
on section 1 of the 18th amendmen
of the Constitution of the United
States. 1t reads:
SECTION l. Neither slavery nor in
voluntary servitude, except as pun
ishment for crime, whereof the part,
shalt have been duly convicted, shal
exist IN the United States or an.
other place under their jurisdiction.

The people everywhere should op-
pose any proposed issue of bonds
and the increase of the public debt
in time of peace. If the government
cannot pay its way in such times,
when can it? The real purpose Of
the issue of bonds is to provide banks
with a basis for more bank currency
There is now no authority Of law to
issue bonds to buy gold. The act OF
1878 authorizes the sale OF bonds for
coin, for the redemption of green
backs, and nothing else. There is
now over s1OO,oO0,0Oo of uncoined
gold and nearly sl00,ooo,0o0 more Of
silver coin, or bullion that can be
coined as greenbacks are presented
for redemption.

Prof Suess, a high authority, says
that already more than the annual
production of gold is consumed in The
arts, and dentistry and for ornaments.
Where, then, is money supply to
come from? Civilization itself is in
volved in this issue. With the right
restored for everybody to have gold
and silver converted into money with
out limit, money may safely be left
TO automatic regulation. The unlim-
tied use of both the precious metals
as money is not new experiment..
1t is as old as civilization. The right
we now ask to have restored Is among
the oldest of rights that have come
down to us. 1t is right far older
than the constitution but guaranteed
anew by the constitution.

We make the following extract
from private letter received from
prominent CITIZEN Of IoaI,o, now in
New York, and the infofr,stion con.
tanned therein can be relied on ss
correct:
u am offered . layout with the
company just organized in New York
to build q railroad from the mouth Of
Payette into the Seven Devils coun-
try-110 miles. They propose to
build it complete this season, and be
bringing out copper ore by big train
loads next fall. II one-qusrter what
is told about the enterprise and it's
prospects is true, it is . great one. l
believe the country from the mouth
OF Payette for sixty or seventy miles
is the very best in Idaho; elevation
1890 feet. / am informed the cop
per deposits excel anything in that
line known. The best are owned by
Montana parties. One, the Peacock,
owned by Judge l. ]. Lewis, OF
Ketchum, and patented, is said to
show, by actual development, up
wards of 100000 tons of ore that will
go 30 pes cent copper. Ten car
loads we're brought out by pack ami
mails in 1891. l have seen the as
says, which run from 40 to As pei
cent copper, 10 ounces silver and
some gold. They claim to have Goa
on the route, too, and that the june
ton with the Oregon Short Line will
be the great city of Idaho; create

shipped from Payette last fall, ant
no trees over seven years old. Frui

A SHOOTING scrape at Carey, in
Al,uras county, resulted in more COM
edy than tragedy. Just after dance
had broken up, David Evans and
Harmon Scoville had some words
over an ore hauling deal, and Evans
drew his pistol. Edward Garvin en-
deavored to get Scoville behind the
hall and received the first bullet.
Scovile drew his gun and fred three
shots. Evans fired twice. Evans
claimed to be shot through the heart
and made out his will and then said:
~ am dying, boys" He was soon
apparently dead and the terror.
stricken boys stripped him and found
the bullet buried in a package ot
gum in Evans vest pocket. The 1ul'
let had simply bruised him. Evans
had figured in schooling scrapes be
fore and has a tough reputation
Notwithstanding his toughness be
nearly died of fright.

6. F. STONE, of Horseshoe Bend,
is in town. He says that country is
beginning to put on its robe of green,
but spring there is very backward.
Mr.. Stone says canal is to be taken
out of Payette to furnish power for
an electric plant at the head of Will
low creek, in Ada county. Some fine
silver and gold mines have been dis
covered there and are now undergo
ing development The fact that a
canal is to be constructed for power
for an electric plant naturally leads
to the conclusion that mill or mills
are to be put up there, to be run by
electricity.

The "business interests that the
single standard, money-contracting,

and interest-gathering frauds talk so
loudly about and that control our
finances to the ruination and robbery
of honest industry, are the thieving
"interests of broker shops, gam
bling stock exchanges and holders of
evidences of debt that have doubled
in value and made the people the
virtual slaves of these money sharks.
The "husiness interests" concerned In
the production of s15,000,000 of an
nual products, in which $4,000, 600
laborers and billions of capital are
unitedly employed constitute the

have first concern of government, not
the non-producing "interes,s whose
business is to gather interest; not
only that, but they have made it their
business, by contracting the curren-
cy, to double debts and thereby reap
all the products of labor. That is

Naiatorium.
Most all the prominent educators
Of the State, as well as many OF the
