An expedition sent out by ths bureau
Of ethnology for tho purpose OF making
collections toillustrate aboriginal quar-
rying aad mining at the Columbian ex-
position has just returned to Washing
ton with remarkable and most inter-
esting assemblage Of objects secured
Among these objects are number Of
pipes and fragments of pipe stone OBJ
tanned from the famous pipe stone quar-
ry in southwest Minnesota, whence the
Indians of North America have got tho
materials for their pipes since very an
cient days, long before Columbus land
ed upon this continent. From that
time down to the present the working
Of this same mineral deposit has been
kept up continuously, even the savage
Sioux travelling annually two hundred
miles to spend a moath at the quarry.
For centuries the place was regarded
as sacred and all tribes met there, pre-
serving peace religiously while on the
spot.
For miles around the quarry the
plains are covered with rings which
once established. aud everywhere are
scattered fragments of pipe stono, rep
resenting the waste Of manufacture.
This material seems TO have been se-
lected by the savages because Of its
beauty and softness when fresh. The
latter quality renders it easy to carve,
while subsequently it becomes extreme
ly hard. Its color is an exquisite "In-
dian red"
Much Of the carving work done ON the
pipes is of highly artistic quality. Some
of the specimens secured by Pref
Holmes, who made the collections rs-
ferred to, would do credit to the most
skilled workers in nesrschaum
On account Of the difficulties attend
ing the mining OF the pipe stone It is
quite precious substances, piece one
foot square being worth from two TO
three dollars in the crude. The stratum
described is about twelve inches in
thickness and seems 70 be evenly con-
| tinuous for an indefinite distance
through the hill. However, only two
inches of this thickness is Of good quail
ity, being smooth to the touch and free
from grit.
| OF recent years the Indians hays
learned how to inlay the pipes with sill
yer and other metals, performing this
kind of work in a manner very artis tic.
They do all the. pipe-making, the labor
involved being too great to pay the
white man for his time. White people
buy the pipe stone and make many
other articles out of it for sale, from ,
complete house down to miniatur,
pieces of furniture and trinkets.
The fact that this pipe stone quarry
was regarded as sacred is indicated by
extensive photographs on the rocks il
the vicinity Of certain huge bowlder
found on the spot, representing aborig
inal gods and nther things OF religion
significance. II Washington s;tar

ces were created principally for the
purpose of rewarding partisan
activity. Some dav, perhaps, poll
tics will again be run on principles,
but before that time comes a NOR
al revolution will have to sweep
over the country. Public officers
reflect public sentiment; the faithful
servant does his masters bidding.
President CLEVELAND, against the
admonitions of his own consci-
ence, engages in wholesale mis-
appropriation of the public funds
because he knows that the Demo
cratic party wants him to do 80;
because he knows that not to do so
would be to fly in the face of the
prevailing sentiment of his consti-
tuency, and violate the hottest ira
ditions of his party.

been accorded, and will no doubt
reap the reward to which their
merit entities them. The reluct-
ancy With which they are permitted
to withdraw temporarily from the
journalistic field is high tribute
to their worth and must be a
source Of qualification TO themselves,
We take the liberty Of thanking
the editors for their courteous rec
ignition Of Messrs. Steunenberg;
and on behalf of ourself express
the same respectful acknowledge
ment. We believe that behind the
press Of Idaho there beats warm
and sipcire heart; and we hope the
day IL breaking when its worth
will be appreciated and its toll and
privations recompensed by the re-
spect and substantial support of
magnanimous people.

The story comes that Worlds
Ear Commissioner, CAPT. WELLS,
had $500 deposited in the Column
bia bank when it suspended. The
story 10 unique if true and CAPTAIN
WELLS will do well to proceed with
the work Of procuring affidavits in
support of it. Idaho people,
especially Democrats and Populists
and sore head Republicans, are not
going to believe that the Commits
sioner had $500 or any other sum
on deposit, on the bare assertion of
CAPT. WELLS and special kilograms.
We sound this warning in order
that the Commissioner may prop
erly fortify himself. 1t is said that
he will be candidate for governor
next year; that is probably true,
hence the pressing need for clear
ing up this matter. Think of the
number of times that $500 transac-
ton will bob up to plague the Cap
tain during the campaign if it is
not properly accounted for now.
A hint is enough.

rabbits and impending starvation;
hundreds of them build homes and
prosperity on the glaciers of Bear
Lake; some brave the sands and
winds and pestiferous gnats and
mosquitoesof Snake rive r valley,
but the vast bulk of them who are
forced to make homes, look to the
unoccupied arid lands in the vicin-
ity of the older settlements, where
all the water has long been appro-
priated and where crops. at best,
are meagre and uncertain. Why
do not those home seekers come to
Canyon county? There, is room
for thousands Of them and an
abundance of water; the climate
is delightful and the soil fertile be-
yond conception. Why don't they
come? There is something wrong
here. Perhaps there are too many
land spectators. Perhaps, peo-
PIE have not money enough to pur-
chase raw land at eight or ten dol
lars an acre. Perpaps, the method
OF managing water is such that
settlers would virtually become
tenants of canal companies, and
liberty loving Americans abhor the
idea Of tenantry. There is food for
reflection here-something to think
about. Land and water for agri-
cultural purposes, in this country,
are inseparable, and unless one
have title in both, he has, indeed,
title to neither; and whether he
he rent land or water makes no diff.
ference, he is simply tenant and
subject 70 eviction upon failure to
pay rents-if he rent land and fail,
the landlord serves process; if he
rent water and fail, necessity per-
forms the same act. The Ameri-
can spirit is opposed to landlordism
and eviction in any form; the peo-
pie of this country do not care for
ownership by grace. They want
absolute titles in themselves and
heirs. Perhaps this has something
% do with the development, or
'ather lack Of it, in southwestern
IDAHO. Think of it.

PREoEPT AND PRACTICE.

Reward for partisan activity is one
funds"
Thus said President CLEVELAND
IN his inaugural address. Posi-
bly, he meant it then. The altitude
to which he'd ha just attained, the
atmosphere which surrounded him.
the homage which was paid him,
all conspired to make him feel
great and he though great thoughts,
and was given courage to express
them. But the next day his cour-
age began to ooze OUT and his in
tegrity began to wane. He enter.
ed upon a stupendious "misappro-
priation of public funds without
visible compunction. His con-
science may have pricked him once
or twice, but the punctures were
slight and rapidly healed up and
were forgotten. If CLEVELAND had
said that before election, and if
the Democrats had suspected that
he meant it, some one else had
uttered the inaugural last March.
We believe President CLEVELAND
was sincire when he said that,
reward for partisan activity is
misappropriation, of the public
funds" We believe he labored so
long over the construction
OF that sentence that the
truth of the idea Was thorough
ly impressed on his mind. He be.
lieves today what he expressed on
the fourth of March, but he has not
the heart to inforce his precipts;
he has not the courage to run coun-
ter to the whole sentiment of his
party.
Sometimes, we imagine, the
President reads over again his in
augural, and then he must feel hu-
inflated; he must feel that the Presi-
dent. of the United States is a great
hypocrite. How can he feel other.
wise after listening to the claims of
FRANK BEANIE and the protests of
Ex-Governor STEVENSON; and is
bluhtly told that all that brings
them to Washington is the assur-
ance that a general misappropria-
ton Of public funds is in progress
and that they or their friends
ought to enjoya share of the booty?
But President CLEVELAND is not
blameable. The people are not pre-.
pared to accept his doctrine. They
do not believe that reward for par.
tisan activity is misappropriation
Of public funds; they believe
the reverse of that PROPOSE
lion; they believe that public off,

GOOD BYE. JOHN.

Now that the Supreme Court has
decided that John" must go, peo-
pie are beginning to ask them
selves whether or not they can
afford to part with him. "John''
comes pretty near to assuming
rank among the necessary evils.
Everybody comedies that he is not
a desirable acquisition in some
respects, but a great mary have
arrived at the conclusion that he
is mighty handy to have about the
house. Johndoes not shine as an
American patriot; he does not take
enthusiastically to Christianity,
but he is boss of the kitchen and
wash house all the same. "John"
can do hundreds of things that
American women can't do, and he
will do, hundreds of things that
citizens of the Republic wont do.
Perhaps it is treason to say a
word in Johns" favor, but when
he goes. he will be missed, and some
people will feel that he takes with
him most Of the joy and comfort Of
their lives. Early vegetables and
boiled shirts will become extinct
in some localities. Pretty soon we
will have the truck garden trust
and the laundry combine to battle
with; and there will be the united
order Of ancient cooks and the
knights Of the bed chamber and
the association for the promotion
of tho order Of general housework-
ers to disrupt and devastate the
country, and call out the militia.
But the law of the land says
"John" must depart, so let him go,
and peace to his memory. Some
day he will come back again and
the Dennis Kearnies and the poets
and the funny men and the New
York Sabbath school teachers will
get another whack at him.

surrounding Caldwell was subject
to homestead entry. q thousand
families would be added 70 the

THANKS.

~ gives us extreme pleasure to
note the many kind and graceful
things that the state press has
been pleased to say of us since
taking charge of Me CALDWELL
TRIBUNE. Without respect to creed
81 party cordial welcome has
been accorded US by the fraternity
generally, except in isolated cases.
The Nampa Progress, inpelled no
doubt BY grave sense of moral
duty, did not hail us with that
degree Of warmth which denotes a
heart o'erflowing with robust affec-
tons; but Commissions heal slowly
n ago and infirmity, and the little
bruise, which, aggravated by a
lack Of wifely sympathy, drove
Dan'lto intemperance, is corroding
AZ his bosom yet. We hope he feels
better now. We sincerely wish
him full fruition Of all his hopes
and aspirations. It would only
add torment to declining years to
engage the Progress in a quarrel
With the TRIBuNE, and contest
without profit Or pleasure must
necessarily Be barren Of sense
and interest. We therefore cheer
fully forgive the affront offered us
BY the Progress and extend the
hand'of friendship and good nature.
The Blackfoot News whimpered a
little, but that was expected.
Some years ago the Enterprise
g6tlessly said something which
did not add effulgence to the
"Colonel's" renown; and the injury
TO his southern pride has soured a
naturally sweet temperament. The
News will regain it's affability after
awhile, and the liquid melodies Of
its little bird will soothe the
Colonel's" ranking soul. We
hope tho News will not again rob
Us Of the pleasure Of its visitations.
There Is something SO soft and
'entrancing about it that it bathes
the soul in somnolent tranquility.
There has gone abroad an inn
preston that we are some sort of
an anarchistic torpedo, ready to
explode on the slightest provocation
and spread ruin and desolation in |
our track. We respectfully desire
to correct that error. We are nat.
urally timid and retiring, and fully
domesticated.. We experience no
difficulty in subjugating our spirit
to the authority Of law and the

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
All southern Idaho is anxious
for development. Logan, Elmore
and Canyon counties are composed
of vast areas Of the finest agricult.
ural lands in the United States
The climate is salubrious and the
soil is kind and responsive. There
are millions Of people in the world
who are anxious TO acquire just
such lands and live in just such a
country. Tributary to these count
les are exhaustless mineral de-
posts which some day will be de-
veloped into producing mines.
Already, INF fact, mining is being
extensively and protitablv prosecut-
ed. Every fruit, Vegetable and
cereal known, except q few tropi-
Gals, does we'll in one or another of
the cYunties and in Canyon county
they all thrive in profusion. Cam
yon county is capable of maintain
ing q population Of million peo-
pie and some day it will do so.
But in the last thirty years only a
few thousand of that million have
found, here, their future homes.
For the last ten years the great
Hood Of immigration has passed
through the heart of this magnifi-
cent country and settled in Oregon
and Vashington-passed through
sunny and healthful climate to
make homes amid interminable
fogs and rains and malaria-pas-
sed through a country which
nature has all but prepared for
the pillow and the drill, to a coun-
try where the labor and sweat of a
generation is required to clear and
prepare a truck patch. There is
some reason for this. People are
,ot thus diverted from there best
interests by within and caparice.
There is something radically
wrong which must be radically
lighted. People say that irriga-
ion and the difficulty of obtaining
water supply is the lettering cause.
That might have operated to some
extent FIVE years ago but it would
not apply today. There are i'm
nense systems of canals covering
he greater portion of Canyon
county and people generally con-
'ede that irrigation, when the wat
II supply is sufficient, is the safest
Ind most profitable means of Gull
ure. There is hardly scarcity
# water. Boise river would liter
lily food the country every twenty
our hours; yet people do not settle
lere. They pass on to the forests
md fever and ague of Oregon. We
night account for this, to some
on the principal that peo-
lie IKE to live near the sea coast, !.
# enjoy fever and agne, or don't
understand irrigation. But there
s something else. Down in Utah
md south eastern Idaho. there are
thousands of people who never
aw old ocean and never care to
ZEE it; who never "shoOk" and new
r pine for Shakes and quinine,"
md who do thoroughly under
tand and love irrigation. Yet
ONE OF those people pass right |
Trough Canyon county to become |
'ebb feet. Some of them settle on
be cold and dismal prairies Of
Yyomirg amidst coyotes and jack
