A Tenderfoot's Gall.

The Idaho Hydraulic Gold Miner
has cast an undeserved slur on that
excellent and reliable Recorder,
which has for SO many years la
bored diligently and faithfully to
develop the resources Of the great
Salmon River country. The Miner
says in late issue: "Ketchum's
business interests are as dead as
those of Salmon City were before
the Miner existed" What supreme
"gall" the editor of that sheet must
possess what brazen audacity it
must require to SANDER neighbor
and look a Disguised public in the
face; what a Napolean ofignorance
he must be to make such ridicu-
lous statement to an intelligent peo-
pie. He should blush with shame.

Another s.Old Timer Gone.

James R. Pile, probably the old
est printer in Idaho, died at the
hot springs hospital, Haley, last
Monday morning, Feb. 9th, after
an illness extending over a period
of 10 months.
His history, as far as can be as
certained, is about as follows !:
Born in Kentucky from whence his
parents moved to Indiana, and at
Vincennes he learned the printing
trade. From there he moved to
Missouri, and in 1852 emigrated to
California, and followed his trade
and placer mining with Indifferent
success until 1864, when he drifted,
with the tide of fortune-seekers, to
Idaho, where he has lived since,
working the most of the time at his
trade. In 1866 he worked for the
present proprietor of the KEYSTONE
on the Idaho World at Idaho City,
afterdards he worked in Boise City.
He came to Wood River in July,
1887, and has been employed on
the KEYSTONE, when able to work,
ever since.
About 10 months ago Mr.. Pile
caught a severe cold, from which,
on account of his old age, he never
recovered, continually failing in
health until four months ago when
be give up entirely, although he
had done comparatively nothing
for over a year. Three weeks ago,
there being no doctor in Ketchum,
he went to Haley for medical treat
ment, and while there his friends
advised him to 60 to the hospital
where he could have constant care
and attention. A few days before
he died he wrote US that he was i'm
proving rapidly, and spoke in the
highest terms of his treatment and
the management of the hospital.
From conversations had with
Mr.. Pile, at different times, and
from data given in his "Reminiscences
of bygone days, we conclude him
to be not less than 80 years old,
although his exact age will proba'
bly, never be known. The only rel.
atives he leaves are a sister-in-law
and nephew in Chicago, neither
of which had he ever seen.
In his death the mantle of charity
is spread over his faults, and his
old-time acquaintance look only
on the bright side of his life, speak
ing only kind words of him whose
death has caused them to pause
| in their daily avocations, and re
fleet over the past, when all were
pioneers together, working for thu
development of this country, laying
| the foundation of this great com
monwealth. They will shed a silen
tear in his memory, reminded tina
as his spirit has fled to his Maker
so must very soon follow the grane
procession of pioneers, their mem
DRY living only in the unwritten his
tory of the hardships and privatlon
of the founders of Idaho. Sad az
the contemplation of pioneer
death appears, it is inevitable, bu
there is one cosolation, one brigh
star that will always shine in hi
memory, be he ever so humble, tn
State of Idaho will be his monu

A Clam.

"The Wood River Mining Region
is deader than a lime fossil. Sal
mon City Miner.
To show the ignorance ofthe clam
who penned those lines, we will
state ( for the benefit of the numer-
Gus subscribers Of the Miner In
London and Paris where it is in
general use) that the only smelter
now running in Idaho is located at
Ketchum, and the monthly pay
roll of this institution and the mine
which furnishes the ore, is greater
than the combined output of Lemhi
county. There is more ore being
produced now on Wood River, even
at the low price of silver, than this
modern Ananias located at Salmon
City could conceive in his minute
brain. This Wood River country
does not need the aid of a tenderfoot
Mulberry Sellers to boom it. 1t
is known in all the mining circles
of the world as an extensive silver
district, and with silver at par no
richer country exists on the earth.
This has been demonstrated, and
capital is only waiting justice to be
done the white metal. The KEY
STONE has labored for IL years in
this vineyard, and if free coinage
was declared tomorrow, the results
of our labors would be manifest by
the thousands of men that would
pour into this country at once.
