WarQ InT60s
The most shameless condition of things
prevailed in Ward 3. Opposite the ward
room in the street commissioner room
plentiful supply of liquor and the
Democratic hoodlums marshalled by the
notorious Peter Daily streamed in there
all the forenoon, remained awhile and
come out licking their chops. In the
corridor at noon time were dozen men
in state of beastly intoS&cAtion. Several
policemen were there but they paid no
attention to them. Towards noon there
were so many drunken men about the
corridors, and the performance in the
street commissioner room had become
SO public that the rum shop in the COM
missioner's Office was closed up, and tho
thirsty individuals were taken upstairs
by Mr.. Peter Daily and there supplied
with inspiration. Inside the ward room
there was no disturbance, but the voting
was very brisk. Both parties strained
every nerve and the street was full of
teams and the sidewalk filled with work
ers. Very little difficulty was expert
enced in handling the Australian ballot.

The Di2erence.

The following from Col. Ingersoll
should be read by every laboring
man in the nation:
Rich men meet in the bank, the
club house or parlors. Workingmen,
when they combine, gather in the
street. All the organized forces Of
society are against them. Capital
has the army and navy, the legisla-
tive, judicial and executive depart
ments. When the rich combine it is
for an exchange of ideas" When
the poor combine it is "consp,racy."
If they act in concert, if they really
do something, it is "mob." If
they defend themselves it is treason ~
In this country the political power is
equally divided among men. Why
should the rich controlP There are
certainly more poor than there are
rich. Why should not the laborers
combine for the purpose of controll-
ing the executive, legislative and ju-
dicial departmental Tho reason the
laborers don't is because they don''
know enough and refuse to be taught

A novel and ingenious plan has
been put forward by . member Of
the Institute of Civil Engineers for
clearing London of fogs. It Is SIM
ply to erect in the streets . number
of air propellsrs to fan the fog away.
Mr.. Ross, the author of the plan in
question, suggests that each propeller
should be two feet in diameter, and
he calculates that it would drive on .
column of 16O, 900 cubic feet of air or
fog per hour. If propellers were
placed at a distance of so yards apart
there would be 35 propellers per
mile, setting in rapid motion and
driving forward 100000 cubic feet
per hour. 1t would be possible to
work 1000 such fans by electricity At
cost of 425 per hour. They would
distribute 1,12O millions of cubic feet
of fog also per hour. The 1000 fans,
arranged SO as to give 35 to the mile,
would extend over 200 miles OF
streets. Mr.. Ross has noticed what is
a matter of common observation, that
fog never accompanies brisk wind
and he thinks that by creating an ar.
tifcial breeze he would SO complete
ly change the atmospheric conditions
as to dispel the fog.

ROBERT NOBLE, of Caldwell, will
shear $4,000 sheep this year. This
is quite a band, enough itself to de-
waste nearly a whole State. But
there are many times $4,000 sheep in
Idaho, and the industry continues to
grow, but Idahoans do not rejoice
much thereat. Sheep are rapidly
destroying our best ranges and the
destruction is permanent. Where
one dollar comes into Idaho through
the sheep industry, our State is in
iured at least to the extent of 800.
While the sheep owners make money
the State in general is loser. The
public domain ought to be free for
all stock but sheep. To allow few
| men to become rich at the expense
of an entire State is poor policy.
The sheep destroy the ranges and the
sheep herders set out forest fires to
burn off the brush in the mountains
and destroy hundreds of thousands OF
dollars worth of fine timber. This
work was carried on few years age
in this county, and not only timber
but much other property was des-
troyed. Whenever sheep herdeI
moved his camp FIRE was sure te
break out.

On the first day of the session Of

ter was read from Congressman Bry-
an, OF Nebraska, in which he express.
ed the opinion that the agricultural
or wheat growing States had suffered
more from the fall in the value of sill.
yer than had the mining States.
A letter was read from Gov. Pen.
noyer, Of Oregon. Among other
things, he said: "The whole history
OF the world does not furnish a crime
equal In atrocity to the demonetiza.
ton of silver. Against this crime the
Trans. Mississippi Congress should
make formal demand for the resto.
ration of silver"
Governor Stone, of Missouri, in ex.
planning his absence, expressed the
opinion that the policy Of sectional
conventions and congresses was open
to criticism, but he had no patience
to hear such criticism from people of
the northeastern States; they had on
y themselves to blame for the condi-
ton that compelled the States of the
South and West to combine.
President Wilson, of the First Ma
tional Bank of Mexico, Missouri,

have plundered this country as effect

business before in Kansas City, Mis-

goods on credit, have them shipped
to other States and Territories so that
track of them would be lost. w. H.
Early did the business in Boise. The
letter he received from Denver, which
was not signed, gave the whole
scheme away. This letter was handed
to John Early, who opened it and
read it before he knew who it was
for. The firms Indebtedness is now
figured at between $4,000 and $780,

VERY GOOD SCHEME.

Silver City Avalanche.

Its Former Record.
Silver City Avalanche.
Among the mining properties of
this camp which gave it it's unrivalled
history, perhaps to the Golden Chair
OF is due the greatest credit. This
claim, which is only 600 feet in
length, has . production record Of
&i6, ,OOO, 600, and while opened to :
depth of 1900 feet, has never been
stopped deeper than 800 feet. On this
property, as we'll ~ others on the
same lode, the proposition of keeping
it clear of water made . costly item
in the necessary mining expenses.
Notwithstanding the heavy cost of
mining At that time, when the ex-
penses Of mining and milling were
considerably in advance of that of the
present time, the properties were pay
ing investments until the financial
crash of 1875, when the operators,
involved in other enterprises, were
forced to close these mines. Natural
ly al the properties on that mineral
belt-the Mahogany, South Chariot,
Minnesota and Golden Chariot
filed with water, and with the search
ty of fuel and the great cost of pump
ing out the mines, no single owner
has had the "nerve to attempt 1t,
and for twenty years these properties
have stood idle, except perhaps, some
few leases above water level.
The Avalanche is pleased to an
nounce that a scheme is now on foot
for the purchase of the properties
named, which have produced in the
aggregate some twenty four millions
of dollars, (mostly in gold bullion)
and with q cross-cut tunnel from
South Sinker creek, tap the proper
ties at depth of about 1900 feet,
thereby draining the whole group Of
mines and providing a working tun-
mel for the same. This would al
once reduce the cost of mining more
than one-half. Again, the tunnel
would provide a means for the utili.
zation of the water from the mines
in running dynamos for milling the
ore, and power and light in the mines
The mill will be situated, (f the dea
goes through, which there is every
reason to believe it willy just below
the tunnel mouth, on South Sinker
and with the excellent water power
of that stream, together with tbs
waste from the mines. a sufficient pow
er would be .avsilable to run it ths
year round. With the expenses O.
mining and milling reduced to min
imum, doing away with expensive
hoists, there Is no reason why thu
proposition is not the most feasible il
existence.
This tunnel would be about 4,OOt
feet in length, would not cost NOR,
than $3.50, 900, nor require more thai
two years in it's construction.
| There is no doubt as to the valu,
of these mines at the depth they woul'
be opened, for there is not an instanc
in the mining work OIL the mountain
where deep development has show
less value, and, in fact, the presen
work on the great Poorman and Ralp
Pool mines on the same mountain
show that the ore is more valuable a
depth is attained. We shall kee
our readers posted on this movement
and trust that in a very few week
we can announce the deal, which vii
mean much for our camp, much fc
the projectors, and will put Owvhe
county in the front ranks as gol
producer.
