A NAMPA dispatch to the States
man, dated Feb. 9th, says people are
still going to the opal fields and some
rich finds are being made daily. One
of the largest stones yet found is in
the possession of Mrs. Foley. 1t is
encased in large rock, and from
what can be seen it must be as large
AS small hens egg. She refuses to
put value on it, but it is probably
worth $4,000. A number of Nampa
citizens have smaller opals that have
been brought IN. They vary in size
from small chips to stones that will
weigh from eight to ten karats. These
opals are pronounced by experts to
be equal to any yet found in the Uni
ted States. w. E. Young will leave
for Opaline Immediately to survey the
town site. Claim jumping has com.
menced, and a genuine boom is
looked for in the near future.

Henry Wood and E. G. M. Rand,
railway experts employed by the
bondholders' committee of the Ore
gon Pacific Railway to examine the
property and affairs of the company,
have submitted their report. The
experts estimate that the present
value of the property of the Oregon
Pacific Railway company is $780,
900. They charge wasteful manage
ment and extravagance in construc-
tion. They were unable 10 deter
mine the nature of the relations be-
tween the Oregon Development COM
pany and the Oregon Pacific except
that the two companies are under
the same management. They think
that under careful management the
value of the property could be largely
increased.
The joint report is supplemented
BY q statement from Mr.. Rand, in
which he says that between $350,00C
and $400, 900 of receivers certificates
have been issued which are invalid
Mr.. Rand advises that the road be
extended to Boise City on the east

LEWISTON TELLER: Gov. McCop.
nell has signed the wagon road bill
and has added the finishing touche.
10 one OF the most important meas.
ures OF the present session. The Law
provides that q system Of wagon
roads shall be constructed through
BOISE, Idaho, Custer, Lemhi, Nea
Prce, Latah, Shoshone and Kootena
counties. When its provisions have
been carried out the extreme parts oI
the State will be connected BY good
and sufficient highways. MANY
places in the interior counties now
inaccessible will be brought IN eom.
munication with markets and place.
where their supplies can be easily
obtained. Many valuable mining
properties can then be developed and
many rich valley now too distan,
from market will be taken up and
cultivated. The bill is favorable tc
the rapid development Of the interio,
portions of the State. Next Apri]
the Commissioners of each of the
counties named in the bill will sp.
point one member of the State Wagon
road commission, which will hold it,
first meeting in Boise City, June /
At this meeting engineers will be ap
pointed to survey and locate tte
routes of the several roads of thu
proposed system, and at the earlies
moment the bids for the constructio,
Of the different sections of the roae

WHAT WALL THE HARvEsr ~ !

One-third of the farmers of the
United States are tenants. This is =
fearful thing 70 contemplate. When
y this thing going to end? The ten
ant system in this country was scarcs-
y known until after the money vol-
ume Was decreased and appreciated
and debts increased. The legislation
OF 1873 has made millionaires who
never earned their millions, and labor
has lost that which it can never re-
cover, even should or financial sys-
tenn be e-established on the sound
basis that existed before 1873. To
go back to first principles--the only
just and true principles--those Of
bimetalism-wo would put an end to
further calamities, but could not re-
pair the damage that has already
been done. Billions of dollars have
gone from the pockets Of creators Of
wealth to the Golfers Of usurers who
toileth not, neither do they spin,
which means that they create moth
ing but general poverty and stagna-
ton of enterprise. There will be an
end to such work; it cannot be car
ried on indefinitely; self-preservation
is the FIRST law Of nature, and this Law
will proclaim its edict, and when it
does, revolut' on, bloodshed and wip
ing out Of the bloodsuckers will be
the inevitable result. The people
have patiently awaited just solu-
luton of the financial problem, but
they have realized that by patiently
waiting their burdens have been in
creased. Their oppressors, noting
the patience of the people are en-
coursged to carry their work of de-
vastation still further; but there is a
limit to patience, and the sooner thai
point is reached the better it will be-
When the people arise in their nigh,
they are not the sufferers. 1t is Their
oppressors who will go under, and
when the oppressed masses arise in
their might their acts are never tenn
pered with mercy. Accumulated
wrongs make them desperate and
their vengeance knows no bounds
The usurers and blood suckers are toe
much blinded by avarice and the
robbers greed to see the handwriting
on the wall. But they will eventual
ly come to grief, and we say, the
soone, the better.

We cannot agree with our Bois'

correspondent in regard to the ap-
preparation bill. II is right that
State officials should be provided
with means for hiring cleaks. Even
then their pay is small enough. Their
salaries are small, and to deprive
them of clerks, unless they pay them
out OF their meagre salaries, would
be, as we look at it, penuriousness.
Appropriations for the insane asy-
lum, etc, are necessary. Penurious-
ness is not economy. Our State is
growing, and it is natural that the
expenses of running its machinery
must necessarily increase. The rate
of taxes for State purposes, instead
Of increasing, has decreased.

There is not IN enterprising man
in the State, nor one who has the gem
eral welfare Of tho State At heart, ws
will venture 70 Say, that i not favor
able 70 the construction Of tho system
Of State wagon roads q provided for
in the Workman bill. There are !
few, however, who would like 70 see
this system Of roads constructed, Who,
u the Same tinc, would like TO get
Gov. Mcconnell ont Of the way for
u. S. Senator, and their enmity to-
ward Mcconnell is stronger than their
friendship for the State wagon road.
For this reason, and no other, they
would rejoice if the Governor should
veto the bill which has passed both
Houses. If the road is constructed,
before two years the wisdom Of the
measure will be proven. 1t will
make Of Idaho the greatest mining
State in the Union. This will build
up not only the mining counties. bat
agricultural counties, as we'll. The
farming industry is largely depend
ent on the mining districts for mar
kets. The prosperity of the farmer
is based on that Of the miner. That
this system Of State roads will tap the
greatest mineral sections Of the Pa
cilic coast admits of no doubt. The
mines have already been discovered.
These sections are SO isolated that
there IS no encouragement for the
mine owners to prosecute develop
ments; no encouragement for pros
pectors to go in there to hunt for new
mines. With . road into central
Idaho they will rush in there by hun
dreds, many new discoveries will be
made, old discoveries developed and
worked, and Idaho will advance with
rapid strides. The uphuilding of our
young State should be the first con-
sderation of every one of her citl-
zens, and no measure ever advanced
could accomplish this object so effec.
lively, quickly and completely as the
one for the construction of this sys-
tenn Of State wagon roads. OF course
there are few opponents of progress.

their mouthings should not be taken
into consideration. They are consti
tutlonally opposed, always, to every
thing put forward for the advance
ment of either the State or the com.
munities they curse with their dole
full presence. What such cranks are
created for, or why the Creator viii
allow them to live, is a mystery
They are no good to themselves no
to any one else, but perpetual nui
sance and an eye sore to any commu

BOISE Mail: The information now
first officially given to the public, and
gathered by the Evening Mail from
unquestionably reliable sources. re-
lating to the surveys across Idaho
made by the Northern Pacific and
Burlington roads, is of the utmost i'm
portance. The Burlington company
is not building into the wids of wes-
tern Wyoming to stop there and out
shrek the wolves. That road is 60
ing to the coast; and it will not be
very slow about it either. The only
route worth considering is that via
Boise. Ten years ago the Union Pa
cifc passed US by as not worth con-
sideration; now the Union Pacific
has discovered its mistake and is ex-
pending large sum of money to gel
into the city. The Burlington will
make no such blunder. The Burling-
ton is heading for Boise.
