A couple of Weiser inventors
have invented a new gold-saving
machine for the famous Snake river
gold. The Signal says. Sand that
prospected % cents to the cubic
yard, after being run through the
machine, failed to yield solitary
color. They will at once apply for
a patent. AS it is an amalgamator
it will not be confined to Snake
river sand, but can be used in any
ore crushing mill, and it's capacity
will be greater than any now in ex-
istence.

A number of children on our

eight weeks of which shall be con-
secutive, unless such child or chill
dren are excused from such attend
ance by the board of school trustees

Hanging Is Too Good for Them.

Hunters who have been out lately
in the mountains surrounding town
report deer very scarce. A fresh
track is now sufficient cause for
excitement. Big game has about
vanished from every section of the
state. Disreputable characters the
past two or three years have killed
thousands of deer and elk for the
hides. They camp at the ticks and
do wholesale business. 1t is said
that being unable to carry on the
work on scale Of magnitude com
mensurate with their desires by the
use of guns, they adopted plan on
scientific principles to keep up with
advanced and quick methods OF
modern civilization. Their plan was
to poison the ticks, which proved
very successful. AS proof of the
truth of that rumor, two prospect
ors from Central Idaho report that
at lick somewhere in Idaho coun-
ty carcasses of skinned deer were
strewn around in great profusion,
and an examination failed to show
any bullet holes. Men who would
do such work ought to be promptly
hung without being given an OPP
portunity to escape punishment
through technicalities and loop
holes of law. They out to be strung
up without mercy or benefit of cler-
|gy. And after being hung they
ought to 60 where the weather is
hot, and hot the year round

Severing Party Ties.

Several senator's and representa-
tives in congress have severed their
connection with the administration,
says the Nevada State Journal.
Pugh of Alabama, Bland of Mis-
souri,, and Bryan of Nebraska have
publicly declared their independ-
ence and proclaimed that if the
democratic party does not remone-
tie silver they are for the party
that will. White and Geary of Cal
ifornia have also announced that
they have no favor to ask of the
administration. There are other
prominent democrats, such as Vest
of Missouri, Morgan of Alabama
and Daniel of Virginia, who have
given the administration to under
stand that they will not follow it
into the goldbug camp.
Among the republicans who have
broken the shackles of party are
Teller and Wolcott of Colorado and
Bowers of California. Wolcott, in
behalf of his constituents, has de-
clared against the Mckinley bill
and refuses to follow the leadership
of Sherman and Hoar. Bowers, who
represents district in which Pop
ulist ideas are popular, is no longer
counted as a republican, as he de-
clares that he will not sustain a
party that is almost unanimous in
its opposition to free coinage.
These are only few of the prom
inent men in congress who have
severed the ties which bound them
to the old parties and signified their
intention to act independent Of the
Wall street combination.
In Virginia, in which an election
is to be held for state officers and a
legislature, which will elect two
United States senators, the princi-
pal issue of the campaign is the
silver question. The old parties are
virtually disrupted, though one Of
the candidates for governor goes be-
fore the people on platform which
endorses the administration. Men
who have heretofore been promi-
nent in democratic councils in the
state are advocating the election OF
the free coinage ticket, which stands
an even chance of being successful.

Alturas County Sued.

In the United States court, lii
Boise, suit has been brought by
Albert NJ. Rosenbaum Of San Fran
cisco, against Alturas county to re-
cover over $34 900. The action is
brought to foreclose $29,5S0 worth
of an issue Of $4,000 of Alturas
county court house bonds and to
recover interest amounting to about
$500. While no answer has been
filed it is understood Alturas will
contend that the counties of Ell
more, Logan and Bingham should
share this indebtedness.
When old Alturas was divided
the court house was allotted by the
accountants to the mother county
for a stated consideration. Alturas
now claims, in view Of the fact the
new counties used the court house
for years prior to the passage of the
division act, they should assume
their proportion of the bonded in

The state wagon road scheme of
Gov. Mcconnell, like the Ketchum

in a grand fzzle. In the first place
the bonds could not be sold, and in
the second place the appropriation
to build the road was hardly more
than sufficient to pay for surveying
the route. But each succeeding
scheme of the governor is in keep
ing with its predecessor, and we
presume chat should Mcconnell
succeed himself as governor his
second term would prove no more

Belongs to Mcconnell.

"This is my convention and l
propose to run it" are the immortal
words of the immortal Mcconnell.
Wonder if that isn't his motto in
all other matters, as we'll as in re-
gard to the State Silver Convention?
Didn't be sign the road bill and
make it a law? That being true,
isn't it his law, and being his law
hasn't he right to do what he
pleases with it? Verify he has.
Paraphrasing his immortal words
quoted above-it is his law and he
proposes to run it. Taking his
sentiment expressed at the silver
convention, as a kind of premise,
that is a logical conclusion. The
whole character Of Mcconnell is
summed up in tie immortal words
ouoted-'it is mine and l propose
to run it." Everything is his that
he has anything to do with, and as
a natural consequence he proposes
to run it. Why shouldn't he run
what is his? He owns himself, for
certainty, along with the earth
and all things thereunto appertaln-
ing, and will, to be sure. run him
self-into the ground. Now, If we
have figured him out wrongly in
regard to the road law, and he is
on the right side and opposed to
the notification proceedings of the
other officials, we'll have to &C
knowledge that he has experienced
change of heart and head since
the meeting of the silver conven-
ton and has quit the running bust
ness, except, Of course, running tor
office.-Idaho World.
