The rapid shifting by the winds Of
beds Of sands, often destroying or
menacing human works, is phenom-
enon we'll known in different parts of
the world. But the slow accumula-
ton of the finer particles.the atmos-
pheric dust-has attracted attention
only in recent years. Most ruins Of
ancient cities are buried, and it has
now been learned that the covering
is not wholly the Debris of decayed
buildings and other works, but that
much of it is atmospheric dust. The
layer that becomes visible today on
. polished surface, if undisturbed,
may grow into = deep stratum in the
course of centuries. The winds that
have beaten against some of the lofti-

been laden with fine dust from the
plains, and this has been thrown
down in deposits that now range from
100 to more than 800 feet in thick.

BOISE DEMOCRAT: George Sur

claims have been taken up on the
high grade placers on More creek in
the vicinity of the Halfway House.
He predicts that one thousand men
will be at work in that district early
in the spring. A town will be found

The wonderful -four gold saving
machine which has SO long been pa
tiently waited for is at last on the
banks of Snake river at Lannon's
Spar, sixteen miles from Caldwell on
ground belonging to County Com
missioner, G. w. Paul. Mr.. Raber,
President Of the Portland Amalpa-
mating and Mining company was in
Caldwell last Monday and informed
US that be was here to stay. One Of
his machines would be in full opera.
ton by the 10th inst, and said he,
"if there is any gold in the sands of
Snake river our machine will save it."
I'VE do not want to make any blow
about the business" he said. "We
have come here to demonstrate that
the fine gold along the banks of the
river can be saved at a cost that will
pay to work it even if there is only
90 cents to the ton. According to
Mr.. Raber the average yield of gold
to the ton of gravel is about one dol
lar and at that rate one of his ma
chimes will net the operator 800 per
day. We will not enter into any de-
tailed account of the business at this
time. On the 10th of November one
of those machines will be engaged in
practical work and there does not
seem to be the slightest question
but that it will fulfill every expecta-
ton. Mr.. Raber said that he hoped
that many people would not come tc
see the machine until that time, be-
cause it would be annoying to have a
great number about while the plant
was being erected. As the machine
will be in constant operation all win.

Wait until the tenth; then go dowr

WHY did not the IDAHO World
give us an account of the scrap in
which Barney McGill and his partner
took a.hand? Barney is we'll known
here and plenty of the boys would
have furnished chunk of raw beef
for his discolored optic.-DeLamar
Nugget.
The WORLD did not mention that
little scrap for the reason that Barney
did not want his old friends in Owy-
hee to know that he had become ia
nous as a pugilist, being content to
wear the laurels simply as being one
of the discoverers of the best gold
mine in Boise county, but as they
have heard of it there will be no harm
now to say that he came out Of the
scrap unscsthed, unscratched and
unbruised. The story of the discol-
ored eye was all myth-an "optlcal
delusion." The WORLD requests the
Nugge. to correct that little eye-tem

OUT OF WHOLE cs>orn.
The story or the shooting as Zeal
Hoax.

The reported shooting in Neal dis
trict was q hoax.
This fact developed Sunday even
ing when Fred Page Tustin arrived
in the city, hale and hearty, and as
sured his friends that be was still in
the land of the living and that no bull
let had plowed its way into his anat-
omy.
Mr.. Tustin was seen Monday by .
reporter. He said there had been no
trouble whatever at the mine. He
was probably the most surprised man
on earth when his wife arrived poste
haste at the mine Sunday morning
and informed him Of the story that
had been circulated in this city. Mr..
Tustin was decidedly wroth and was
hunting for the party who brought in
the report, but without success.
The motives of the miserable
wretch may forever remain mys-
terry. The only effect of the report
was to cause Mrs. Tustin, almost fren-
zied at the thought of her husband
being injured, perhaps dying, to
make the long trip to Neal during
that dark, rainy night.
The fend who spread the story did
his work well. At each place where
he inquired the way to the residence
of Mr.. Tustin he took particular pains
to state there had been q seriou.
shooting scrape at Neal. Reaching
the Tustin place he did not go in
but standing at the door told Mrs
Tustin of the affair. He then strucl
out for a doctor, as he said. HI
asked several parties to direct him t.
the residence of a we'll known ply
sician, being careful not to forget hi
story, which he told each time with
great show of excitement, failing
however, to state who was injured
When Mrs. Tustin hastily departet
for Neal it was generally suppose'
Mr.. Tustin had been shot. Thi
caused his friends much anxiety an,
they were greatly relieved to find tn
whole story ridiculous fabrication.
The identity of the man who cause
all the excitement is as yet unknown
and it would no doubt be the wises
act of his life if he remains s'dark
for an indefinite period. 1t is impos
sible to get anything like an accurat
description of the fellow. 1t wa

whom he conversed were unable

The Washington correspondent of
the New York Press says of Idaho's
Junior Senator: "In the midst of all
this loss OF dignity, one of the young
est member of the Senate has given
to his older colleagues, who are sup
posed to conserve both the dignity
and the courtesy of that body, a
most distinguished example. The
bearing of Mr.. Dubois, of Idaho, the
scholarly and honorably ambitious
Yale graduate to whom has been in
trusted the leadership of the Repub-
lican silver forces in the Senate, has
combined, during all this long battle,
aggressive frmness with the most
elaborate courtesy. Provoked as he
has been at times by the malignant
assaults of administration Senators
at war as he has been with MAORI
ty of the Republican side of the
chamber, subject to criticism as be
has been by Mr.. Voorhees, and othel
veteran Senators on account of hi.
youth and inexperience, Mr.. Dubois
has acquitted himself with an energy
and tact which have both surprised
and grati6ed his loyal followers. Mr.
Dubois is not only one of the mos
popular, but one of the most highl,
respected members of the Senat,
among his colleagues, despite hi
youth and aggressiveuess.

SALT LAKE TRIBUNE: Our morn
ing contemporary does not like to
have rs say that ian inscrutable
Providence raised Grover Cleveland
to pedestal for which be was never
intended" and thinks that is : para
dox. 1t is quite mistaken. Provi-
dence was mapping or had spite
against the world when that raise was
made, and what We meant by snever

Divine Providence, but merely to
state q fact, which Is, that Grover
Cleveland is not qualified either by
native intellect or by training or by
association to sit as FINAL judge on
matters which concern the welfare OF
all the people Of this great Republic.
After he was elected President the
first time he confessed that he knew
nothing of the tariff question. He
has never put his pen to paper in re-
gard to the currency question that
he has not shown that he knows moth
ing about it, except what he has been
stuffed with by New York National
bankers. If be could have made an
honest living practicing law in the
city OF Buffalo he would still have
been in the business. He could not
and so ran for little office, and since
then his life has been demonstra

the country, as was never exhibited
before and such as no nation ever be

A GREAT CHANGE.

son was candidate for Mayor Of
chicago every newspaper in that city,
save the one be owned, was of opin
ION, or at least expressed the opinion,
that he was dangerous man; dem
agogue devoted entirely to his per-
sonal interests and ambitions; reck-
less OF the public welfare; identified
with the worst elements of society.
The pulpits of Chicago of almost
every church, echoed the denuncia-
tons Of the press. No man ever ran
for office in this country whose candi-
dacy provoked SO much vituperation.
Ruin was predicted as a sure conse-
quence of his election. Chicago
would be given up to the control of
gambling dens, rum shops and the
brothels and decent men would hide
their heads in shame of the millions
who were coming to see the Worlds
Fair. Nevertheless, he was elected
by an overwhelming majority. If the
statements of the papers and pulpits
were true, the inevitable conclusion
from his success must be that the peo-
pie OF Chicago were hopelessly de-
moralized, by voting for such man.
Carter Harrison was installed in office
some weeks before the Worlds Fair
was opened. He organized his gov
eminent, reorganized the police and
performed his duties as Mayor, and
those who met him failed to discover
in him the monster who had been
described. On the very eve of the
closing of the fair a crazy assassin
enters his house, calls him to the door
and kills him. The whole city now
mourns his loss in unanimous recog-
milton of the great loss which the
community has suffered. There is
not word said now, except in Carter
Harrison's praise. 1t is recalled now
that he was elected Mayor four times
before, that his administrations were
always eminently successful and sat
isfactory, that he raised the credit oi
that great city TO the highest, filled
her treasury, repaired her streets
gave her good police, and left Chi
cago respected by the whole world
Is this not great change? Certain
ly it is an object lesson which may be
pondered proftably by those whose
business it is to comment on the act.
