THE SITUATION.

The situation is just this: There is
emo danger of western secession from
this great nation, for IN our unity
alone Is our greatness. The east,
secure in this knowledge, stands up
as an imperial dictator and master
The west is to the east what Ireland
is to England. The west is looked
upon by the east as simple resourse.
The east aims to keep the west in that
condition by which the greatest rev.
enue can be obtained. The east laws
back in it's ease and luxury and asks
nothing better than to do the manu-
featuring for the west while we furn-
ish the raw material 1t asks nothing
better than to invest the profit on
these manufactured goods in western
loans 10 drain back from us the money
they pay for raw material. The vast
and increasing wealth Of the east is
harvested from the west by the meth
DDS above stated Anything that can
be evolved from the brain of man to
change those conditions, will ever be
bitterly fought by the east, which as
sertion cannot be disputed in the face
of the Congressional Record for 1898
and a. We may add that the rail
roads Will ever be found at the back of
the east In its policy; for what more
would humble railroad ambition ask
than to transport raw material from
the west to eastern manufactures and
then transport it back again in man
ufactured form? How long can this
situation endure? What will be the
final result? Will so fearful a
STRAIN at last burst into Government
disruption? Who can answer?

PLACER LOCATIONS,

On Sunday morning decision by the
secretary Of the interior in placer mine
case was published which was of such far
reaching Importance that The Statesman
wired for further Information as to its
scope. The reply to the despatch is as
follows;
WASHINGTON, Feb l9.-The decision re-
quires discovery on each 20 acre lot in a
location of 100 acres by eight persons. The
case referred 10 declared the location illegal
except as to the 20 acres on which the
discovery was made.
This still leaves many questions open
such as the effect in those cases where
gold is found at all points on the location
What is to constitute a discovery? Must
the annual labor be done on each 20acres?
Must a hole be dug on each 20 acres when
the location is made2 Or can the work be
done at any time before applying for pat
ent in those cases where no digging is re-
qured to show the goldg The ruling threat
ems to overturn all the placer regulations,
though 1t would seem as though location
MUM ~ otAii piONitit'i VIC duhudl WOIk
were done on each 30 acres. The States
man will have the decision so soon AS it is
printed and will promptly make it public.
Statesman.
Whatever the answer to the ques-
tons above, one thing is plain, that
the system of 100 acre locations by
companies of eight persons is apt to
be seriously interfered with. That is,
such a company cannot rush to some
new discovery and hog all the ground
at one scoop. Each member is en-
titled to the 20 acres the same as be-
fore, but one main discovery will no
longer suffice for ALPHABETICALLY each
member must make his individual
discovery on the 20 acres he repre-
sents. This is good, as it gives other
prospectors, who are not organized as
companies, an equal chance in the case
of new find, and one man, by repre-
senting seven of his friends, cannot
shut them out on snap notice.

The true principles of econom

The true principles Of economic
road making may be summed up in
the following lines: A firm, dry
foundation, sound materials laid on
scientific principles, proper and ample
drainage of both road bed and surface,
easy gradients, easy and natural
curves, a hard and compact surface,
free from all ruts and depressions,
with surface neither too fat to pre-
vent the flow of surface water, MOI
too convex to be inconvenient to traf-

SOME got rather funny before morn
ing, one oldtimer especially. He
asked a lady to dance and when she
refused got out in front of her and
.executed an impromptu jig 'Don't
you wish you had danced with me-?
Just see how well can do" He got
another partner, but after the first
change she flew. He lost no time
hunting her up, but walked up to an
old acquaintance and said: "Look
here, this thing has got to be finished !;
come ONT To save an argument she
finished it with him. We danced I'M
til the day came again, and while
some were getting breakfast others
sang and some gave us jig dances.
| know Woodson Jeffreys danced
"Chicken Pie for us that morning,
and he could dance it, too. Then all
were ready for home again, and along
the road we went, stopping at noon
by some cool spring to eat our din
ner, and night found us at home, tired
it is true, but satisfied with our trip,
and all saying they hoped we would
| have as nice time next year; and we
did, for each valley took it's turn in
having its celebration. But now-a-
days we are more of stay home
kind of people and do not, to my
notion, have as good times as we
used but maybe as the years have
come and gone my spectacles are
getting smoked instead of being rose
colored, so do not see as | used.
Well, | guess you must be tired of
Alex by this time, so this is my last,
and with a few words to my old
friends will close. In writing this,
many recollections not recorded here
have come to my mind, and if, in
reading them, it has brought to your
minds old friends, am repaid We
knew each other here when we were
young; together we've passed pleas
ant hours and sad ones, too. Our
children are taking our place and the
wilderness we found has been trans
formed, but let us all once in awhile
draw back memorys curtain and see
the friends of other days pass by; and
to the new friends hope we will all
live to be old friends, too, and to one
and all | say:
Shall auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Shall auld acquaintance be forgot
And the days of auld lang sync''
For aud lang syne, my friends.
I've writ a word of kindness here
For the sake of auld lang syne. ALEX.

As seen by this issue. Rland's cnj

AS seen by this issue, BANDS coin
age bill has at last passed the house
and goes up to the senate. The vote
staining as it did, al democrats, 10
republicans and s populists, in favor
of the bill, seems to show that the
democrats, as a party, are coming
out in tolerab.e fair shape on the sill
yer question, as far as this minor issue
bears on it, and on this point will
have a great advantage over the re-
publicans in the coming campaign
The act provides for the issuance of
$55, 1856, 6S1 in silver certificates to
represent the seigniorage now in the
q. S. Treasury, and that the said
seigniorage, or silver bullion, be
coined into standard dollars AS fast
as possible. [Seigniorage represents
the profit of the government on its
speculatiors in silver under the Shcr-
man law]. The bill does not benefit
the silver industry in any way, except
for the future promise it seems to
hold.

ARE YOU I'M ERESTED2

just outside of the north limits OF
our thriving little city, on a quiet
hillside, far enough removed that the
noise and turmoil of business scarce
invades its sacred precincts, is that
other city of silence. In its ever-in
creasing population are fathers,
mothers, brothers, sisters and be-
loved children; and in their narrow
homes of unbroken slumber each
awaits the final day. If any one hui
man duty is important, it is that
nothing shall disturb the resting
place Of our dead. Weiser must at
tend to this at once and full title be
secured to the tract of land now used
for burial ground, and such regua-
tons enacted that the same property
rights may be obtained as in any
other real estate. The tide of i'm
migration will soon overflow the
land, and in the strife for gain senu-
ment is forgotten. The theme itself
suggests the folly of further DELAY.
Let a meeting be called and a Gene
terry association be organized.

The Blackfoot News talks not only
good politics, but straight common
sense when it advises the Democratic
party to step with little more wisdom
this year than it did last, and demand
that candidates declare themselves
prior to the holding of county conven-
tics, so that delegates may 90 there
knowing the ground they stand on and
for whom they are going to vote.
Gong into convention blind and
showing 'recess. candidates" through
can only result in an inferior and los
ing ticket. The advice is good for
all parties and If followed, it results
in square ticket all around, and
square ticket all around means better
officials, however the fortune of
politics decides the struggle.

Washington county can furnish a
small bunch Of vetrans Of the civil
war who can recall some now amusing
recolleetions of that great strife.
There's j. s. Dedman who made a
cannon that sent ball past the ear
of John ZumaIt, who is now one Of
his nearest neighbors. Dedman was
in Arkansas making cannons for the
Confederates. The guns were furn-
ished to Woodruff battery, which
bombarded school house at Oak
Hill in which were lot of Union sol
diers, among them Mr.. Zumalt, who
says the ball had regular DEAD MAN
sound as it ratified through the she
bang Edward Styles was in the at
lacking battery, but the chain of Incl
dent does not place BIN as firing the
shot that caused Zumalt to scoot.
Then there's Doc Reynolds. who was
in Sedalia, Mo-, when the cavalry, to
which he belonged, refused to go on
parade. Rabb's battery was ordered
out to force them into submission
The battery had instructions to fire
but did not do so and the cavalary
did not go on parade. VD. Hannah
was under Rabb and was called out
and if he could be interviewed, it would
doubtless turn out that he had Doc
picked out to shoot at.
