J. II. Richards, esq, Of Payette, the
Republican noUinee for judge of the
district court, spent couple of days in
DeLamar this week, probably looking
after his political fences. Mr.. Rich
ards is quiet, pleasant gentleman and
has undoubtedly made good impress
sion among the business men here.
Although comparatively new citizen
of the state, Mr.. Richards is thoroughly
identified with the interests of Idaho,
and is at the head of number of very
important enterprises; the Payette
Valley Irrigation and Water Power
company which last year completed
canal costing $4,000, being one Of
them, due almost solely to his influence
and energy. It was also through his
influence that the Payette Valley Bank
was organized, as well as the Payette
Land and improvement company; the
Golden Hop company also in part owes
its existence to him. Through the va
rious enterprises Mr.. Richards has
brought more than half million dol.
lars capital to Idaho, and thereby been
the means Of retaining thousands of
acres Of one Of the finest valleys in all
the inter-mountain regions.
Before coming to Idaho, Mr.. Rich
ards was for two years with the famous
law firm Of Markham, Patterson and
Thomas, afterwards practicing law for
four years in Breckenridge, Colorado.
Leaving there because the altitude was
too great and was injuring his wife's
health. he came to Idah Q, and seeing
the splendid future In store for its fer.

Monday evening Conductor Stone on
the east bound passenger met with a
sudden death crossing the bridge over
the Payette river. 1t seems that he
went out on top of the cars just after
the train pulled out from Payette sta
ton, to look for tramps, and was walk
ing back to get off when the train ran
onto the bridge. For some reason he
failed to notice that the train was on
the bridge and his head struck one of
the cross beams, knocking him off the
car onto some pilings below, just on the
edge of the river. He was not missed
until Washoe was reached, when the
train Immediately backed up and he
was found lying on the piling. He
lived only a short time. Conductor
Stone was one of the Oldest men on the
road and liked by all who knew him.
He leaves a wife and family in Poca-
tellO.

citizens and pupil of our public school
who carried away the Demorest prem.
ium gold medal in the contest in Boise
city, held on Saturday, the 18th, Miss
Ella Breshears being the fortunate
young lady. We also have the young
lady who was second best, Miss Lille
Alchenberger, one of Middleton's bright
young scholars, which speaks well fol
the school and teachers, and for the
application and of both pupils. Oul
trustees deserve their share of praise
for the manner of conducting the
school business and for their selection
of competent teachers.
Times are getting better. You can
always tell by this sign: Last winter

but now times are flush and they are
selling at so, so much for the rise in sill
yer. If silver keeps on going up, chips
will be worth a dollar a stack before

Miss Rosie Kohlhepp has returned

COUNTY POLITICAL NOTES.

The Caldwell precinct delegates to
attend the peoples party county con-
vention to be held at Payette Septem-
Der 22nd, 1894, at 10 a. M, are as follows:
J. B. Wright, w. c. Dunbar, w. P.
Garter, Oscar Martin, Ross Madden,
VIM. Dorman, J. M. Bowman, c. w.
Kreutzer, F. Hartkopf, J. L. Harmon,
R. l.. Morrow, J. L. Bardsley.
P. A. Devers is making thorough
and energetic canvass, determined not
to fail through any fault of his own.
Should Mr.. Devers receive the endorse
ment of the convention and be elected
he will beyond doubt fill the Office of
clerk with credit and ability.
Richard Langtree is highly spoken
of in connection with the Office of
county commissioner. Mr.. Langtry is
a substantial, progressive man worthy
the esteem and confidence of any com.
munity.
w. L: Ryder, Of Payette, seems to be
the choice of the Republicans of that
district for county commissioner. Mr..
Ryder is man well qualified in every
respect to fill the important position.
Assessor Horn thinks that the Re-
publicans will carry Canyon county,
but it will be a close hard a1me. It
isn't a good year to snooze in, politi-
cally speaking.
The Republican primaries next Satur-
day should be we'll attended and repre-
sentative delegates elected. Be sure
you get out and start things on the right
track.
The impression seems to be growing
that the fight over the county seat will
be closely contested and that no man
knoweth where the thing may land.
The bringing out of A. C. Mcdonald
as candidate for county clerk meets
with considerable local favor.

Ice Cream Split y Church.

r
A very much vexed question about a
dish OF ice cream, which split a church,
caused number of designations and re-
movals of prominent brethren, and has
occupied the attention Of every court in
the Southern Presbyterian Church dur
ing several years, came up again last
week in the Missouri Presbytery. The
seat of trouble is the church at Aux
Vase. Galloway county, Mo. During
the preparations for church social there
some five years ago, a difference OF opin-
ion arose among the members as to the
price that should be charged for dish
of ice cream. In the peculiar way such
seeming trivislities do perturb and cause
heartburnings through church, did this
cream question work, until it involved
the entire church membership and a
factionsl feud was the result. Three
members resigned, the elder was re-
moved, the case was carried before the
Presbytery, appealed to the Synod, and
further appealed to the general assem-
bly,. In the latter august body, repre-
senting every Presbytery in the church
30 intense wac the interest in the gres
question that the matter WAS fnall,
thrown out by vote to 20 to II. |
went back to the Missouri Preshytery
and last week this body appointed t
committee TO visit the Aux Vase churcl
and try TO settle the trouble. No opin
ions are offered on the result.

"That. in the opinion oil this mass

the system which enables landlordism to

test against the folly and wickedness Of

BOLD DEsPERADOEs.
A Missouri Pacific Train Held up and
Robbed in Indian Territory.

Robbed in Indian Territory.
One of the boldest train robberies ever
attempted occurred about O'Clock Sun
day night at Seminole, |. T., on the
Kaneas 4 Arkansas division of the Mis-
souri, Pacific. The train was bound for
Little Rock, and as it approached the
engineer saw danger signal and slowed
up. Two or three men boarded the en-
CINE and compelled the engineer and
firemen to jump out OF the cab. A half
dozen other men, armed with Winches-
tiers and revolvers were at the side of the
track. The balance of the train crew,
came forward to ascertain the cause Of
the stoppage, we're corraled and placed
in charge Of guard. The mail-car was
then attacked and the pouches rifled of
their contents and the letters in the
pigeon holes gone through and the valua-
BILE contents extracted. The express-car
was next looted OF all valuable matter,
the messenger being powerless to offer
resistance. Then all the passengers in
the coaches were stripped of vsluables
by eight heavily-armed desperadoes.
Every passenger gave up without a
struggle, glad to escape with a whole
skin, and no violence was offered Big
booty was secured, but no estimate OF
the loss can be given. A posse was or
ganized as soon as possible, and deputies
are hot on the trail Of the robbers. 1t lie
probable fight will ensue if the gang is
overtaken.
