Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1894-06-16

after trading and juggling, fix up a
slate, and call it ticket We are
well aware that this suggestion Will
not meet the approval of the pol
iticians of either party, but it is an
improvement, and briggs the choos-
ing Of our county servants in closer
touch with the people. The party that
wins IN Canyon county this fall must
heed the wishes of the voters in Sc
lectlng their candidates. Conditions
have changed and the people are 60
inc to know more about the men they
vote for at future elections. The par
ty that achieves victory in this county
must transact its business openly and
above hoard, it must turn the light
ON its deliberations and let the people
know who its candidates are if they
expect their support on election day.
The Argus Is perfectly correct as
far as it goes, but it should have sand
the same of state officers.
All the world loves the brave man,
and if brave, honorable man wants
an office he is not afraid to say so
and to let the people know it.
Defeat for nomination for state
office is not disgrace; it IS not as
much of disappointment as defeat
at an election, and he who declares
himself before the convention and
wins the nomination has a better
show for an election than he who gets
the nomination at the hands of politi-
clans without the knowledge of the
people.

Startling Prophecy.

Mayor Ochs, of Chattanooga, Tenn,
received the following rather startling
communication the other day from
Beaver Canon, Idaho:
Beaver Canon, Idaho, May 26.
Behold, / say unto you, on the 9th
month behold, there shall be a stone
drop from heaven to the earth and it
shall be as hot as fire can make it. 1t
shall weigh 10000 tons, and when it
falls to the earth, behold it shall ex-
plode and many lives shall be lost
and much damage shall be done by
the rum of this, and behold the earth
shall be very dry. 1t will take fire
and burn like oil, ard woe be unto
you that dwelleth near it. Behold
you shall see in the heavens a hand
pointing to the place the stone shall
drop, and behold say unto you, We
shall see blood dripping from the fin
gers and ye may know what is near,
and, verify | say unto you, after this
last has taken place there shall soon

Hon. Mayor, the Lord commanded
me to send you the above.
Yours truly,
IRENE, the Prophet
Wife of the seer through whom Gods
spirit gives voice Of the word to
me to write out for the people.
