John r. Kittrell, ex-Attorney.
General of Nevada, now a resident
of Modesto, CAL, and for many
years a leader in the dear old DEM
ocratic party, has deserted its ranks
and joined the populists. General
kittrell was delegate from Stani-

oovention which recently met at
Sacramento, and was nominated
for Attorney General on the state
ticket, which honor he declined.
The General, who is noted for his
fine rhetoric and eloquence, made
somewhat of DEPRESSION from his
usual style of oratory in . speech
which he made before the conven-
ton by expressing in vulgar par
lance his reasons for deserving the
democratic party. He said while
ha had been associated with the
democratic party for many years,
he never had been guilty of the
objectionable Gin of scratching q
ticket, but there were so many yell
low dogs and ours Ia it, he had
concluded to cut loose and cast his
lot vtrh-the peoples party.

The Tacoma Fair Grounds.

Work on the foundation for the
agricultural and horticultural build
ing of the Interstate fair was begun
yesterday. Several thousand feet
of large timbers were hauled upon
the site from the Northern Pacific
track at the lower edge of the
grounds. Twenty carpenters were
set to work. The force will be
doubled within a day or two. Pres
ident BUGGY says be is sure the
building will be completed by the
middle Of July. 1t will be the lar
gest and most attractive of the new
structures.
The grading for the mining build
ing is about finished. A dozen
teams and ecrapers are making
rapid Roadway in cutting down the
banks. The site for the fisheries
building, also, is being leveled, and
the place for the military encamp-
ment, on point at the mouth of
the canyon is fast assuming the APP
pearance of a civilized locality.
The greatest Roadway is being
made in the clearing of the grounds.
The gardeners are doing admirable
work. The little clusters of trees
and brush that yesterday or last
week seemed to be nothing less
than jungles are now cleared and
trimmed in such a manner that
they are amongst the prettiest and
most tempting retreats in the state.
When grass and clover come up
thick all through them, it may
readily be Imagined how much
greater the attraction will be. The
groves are being prepared especial.
" with view to the convenience
of picnic parties and the like.
Four more carloads of lumber
were received yesterday, a total Of
40, 600 feet. This will be used in
the various buildings as required.
President BUGGY met the board
of directors yesterday morning and
made a verbal report of what he
had accomplished at the Midwinter
fair. He told the directors that
the attractions he had engaged there
comprised the cream of the Mid
winter fair exhibits, including those
taken to San Francisco from the
Columbian exposition. A resolu-
ton was passed codially thanking
him for his efforts.
It was decided to push the fair
project harder than ever, all being
determined that it shall be splendid
in every particular.
The ladies auxiliary of the fair
will hold q meeting in Chickering
hall at 3 O'Clock this afternoon.
Important business is to be transact
ed in way Of outlining the work
which the ladies have undertaken !;

Col. Ingersoll is nothing if not
fascinating. He is always enter
tanning, and he occasionally says
something which savors of real
SOUND sense. In recent speech
at meeting on the silver question,
in New York, be presented some
strong arguments. During his re-
marks he said:
We need twice as much money
per capita to do the business of this
country as is needed to do the bust
ness of any other country. There
is always somebody that is crazy
for fear there will be more currency.
l want just all the money we can
get. Silver is good enough for nae.
All I want of money is to pay my
debts. Yes, sir, l want the law to
compel the other fellows to take
what I take. That is good enough
for me.
I believe that every ounce of sill
YER that is dug under the American
flag should be coined free under
the American flag. In New York
they are mostly on the other side.
They are with the bankers, with the
rich fellows. They get together
and they say we want. gold. A
man makes q contract to pay GER
tain moneys in five years. l want
q law so that he can pay the money
when the contract comes due with
the money that was money when
he made the contract.
/ do not think the few should
have right to combine to increase
the value of what people call mon
ey against the debtor and in favor
of the creditor. I want the free
coinage of all the silver that you
can win from the silver mines Of
and if foreign countries
do not want our silver We will not
trade with them.
What Colonel Ingersoll advocates
in regard to making money just as
good when a contract comes due

debtor class. Many a farmer, for

Sees Through Partisan Glasses.
The Boise Democrat has almost
exhausted the vocabulary of oppro-
brious epithets in its attacks upon
the men who constitute the Indus
trial Army. The fact of these men
being out of employment, and the
majority of them destitute and rag
ged, does not make them either
criminals or vagabonds. They are
the victims of Cleveland's rotten
administration-the chief sufferers
from the deplorable financial con-
dition Of the country, and merit
sympathy from the press, not con-
tempt and abuse. The Idaho World
makes some pertinent remarks in
reply to the Democrats verdict that
the Industrials who are under ar.
rest at Boise ought. to be breaking
rock, in the penitentiary, of course.
It says:
"What about the class of plum
derers who have made these men
what they are? What about the
financial legislation, enacted at the
dictation of the favored class, that
has taken the wealth from those
who produced it and placed it in
possession Of the idlers who pro-
duced nothing, but have come into
possession of all. Their victims
ought to be breaking rock as peni-
Tertiary convicts. The robbers who
have brought the masses to poverty
are kid-gloved, refined gentlemen,
scholars and financiers, and their
plant and purchased tools in Con-
gress, the Cabinet and the White
House are polished statesmen, hon.
orable, and fit to be worshipped.
Is it any wonder revolutionary
spirit is beginning to take posses
sion of the people?"

Everybody likes Challis. Those
who have seen it, those who have
lived here dislike to leave. For q
little mountain town at the foot of
the high hills, perpetual snow on
the ranges constantly in sight, q
babbling brook singing its way to
the sea, and other surroundings, it
surely takes the cake.
For hunting and fishing no re-
sort or sporting place in the world
can hold candle to it. Old Cleve-
land and his gang can 60 the Iron
deck" mountains for deer hunting,
or the everglades of Florida for
aligators and snipe, but if be de-
sires fish, he should pay Challis a
visit. We would duck him in Sal
mon river and tie a beer bottle on
the line for q float and patiently
wait for one of the fish to swallow
him whole.
With all their political maneuver.
ing it does not keep Challis back.
Since the fire, many changes have
occurred. New restaurants, board
ing houses and lodging apartments
have been established. An enter
prising citizen has purchased the
residence of Mr.. Dave Wood and
fitted up accommodations for the
outside public during the coming
court.
Thanks to the indomitable ener-
gy of Old Gentleman Pierce and
his "comrade," Mel Sweet, the Sill
yer Messenger will appear as soon
as the press and type arrive.
The burning of the Yellow Jacket
mill, near here, following the fire
in our town, caused some depres-
sion among our citizens; but lately
we learn that two quartz mills are
to be put up in that locality during
the summer. That, with the posi-
BILE rebuilding Of the Challis Hotel
by our Lieutenant Governor F. B.
Willis and his estimable wife, will
lend aid to all people interested in
Custer county.
The Recorders Office shows much
enterprise among prospectors. Nu-
merous locations for placer and
quartz claims are being filed.
Salmon river is raging, and much
fear is entertained for bridges and
grades. At the present writing the
three crossings above here and one
below are in danger. But our county
contractor, Mr.. Charles Waller, is
on deck, and with the assistance of
all at his command he hopes to
save some of them, anyway.
Politically, the situation looks
bad, as it always does in the spring
before an election, yet one can al
ways rely upon people in a COM
munity like this to put proper men
in Office.
