CINCINNATI, April 21.-In the BelIaire
district there are six thousand miners
but not more than half of them struck.
The operators agreed TO pay the price and
want their men to insist on the Pennsyl-
vania operators being forced TO do the
same. The operators in this district are
with the men so long as they will insist on
the scale for Pennsylvania operators. The
same conditions exist in the Hooking Val
ley and Sandy creek valley. but the men
all went out there. In Jonathan creek
valley one thousand men went out. The

The men are generally out in eastern

trouble previous to the recent orc y. In

OUR PROGRESS.

The period between the Gem
tenial and the Columbian fairs
witnessed the general introduc-
tion of one invention of very
great Importance and far+reach-
ing influence, although appar-
emily Of a minor character. |
refer to the typewriter. Writing
machines were made prior to the
Centehial, cnd the origins of the
invention date back nearly half
a century, but the perfection of
these admissible little devices
and The education of the public
Into a general knowledge of their
usefulness is an affair wholly of
our own day. The Remington
coinpany had perhaps made a
thousand machines prior to 1875,
but the typewriter Of that day
was 6lumsy affair compared to
any OF the many different ma
chimes of the present time, and
it was rather a plaything than
an aid in the work of Writing.
l have no statistics at hand to
show how many typewriters are
now In Use in the United States,
bit at a moderate estimate the
numbeF cannot be less than half
a million. They are found ev- |
erywhere, in public officeh, in |
railway offices, in mercantile |
concerns, in the offices of lawyers |
and newspapers, and in the
Libraries of authors and writers
ior the public press. They have
opened a new field of employ
nent for tens of thousands of
young .wo.tien and they have
materially reduced the labor of

STATE WAGON ROAD
The Boise Statesman Speaks
On the Subject.
PRESENT OPPORTUNITY
Should Not Be Neglected
By Idaho County.


that Idaho county will miss
great opportunity if it shall no
make provision to insure tn
building of the branches of tn,
state wagon road In which it i
interested. To be sure, it viii
cost considerable money to effec
the purpose, but the benefit t,
be gained is SO great that the op
portunity should be seized upor
at once,
The state has appropriated
$4,000 for building needed
roads in that county. The
amount Is too small and the con-
struction of the roads cannot be
undertaken Unless the state ap-
propfiatioh be supplemented
with a county appropriation.
The county would be the great
est beneficiary from the building
of the roads. 1t might well hes
itate about shohldering the en-
tire expense of such improve
ments, but when the state thus
steps in with an offer of assist
anoe all hesitation should cease.
A country cahnot be satisfactoy-
lily developed without roads, but
when roads are built it orens up
rapidly if it holds out ! duce-
ments to settlement. Idaho
county is peculiarly favored in
natural RESOURCES and attrac-
tions; it has tnade a start and,
by taking a heroic step how, it
can secure for itself such increas-
ed settlement that the expense
will not long be felt as a burden.
1t might BE justified in waiting
if it #ers necessary for it to in
cur the entire cost; but the state
now offers help, while 1t may
hot renew the offer.
An old adage tells ,ts the Lord
helps those who help themselves.
The same is trde of governments.
In this case future legislatures
might be disinciined to do any
thing for a cohnty which had
neglected to embrace sGch an op-
portuhity; while, ii the county
should step inanfully to the
front and make hp the deficiency,
it would Be i'll a much better po-
sitIoh is appeal to the Iegisla-
ture to relieve it of part OF all of
the bHrdeh than if it should |
stand still now and come for
ward hereafter asking the state
to take the initiative at every
point.
But, taking up another feature
of the subject, The Statesman
wishes to remark that it would
pay Idaho ;co'ninby to do thfs ev-
en- though 1t should never re-
teeive return from the state for
any part Of the outlay;
The people Of that great touh-
ty may not yet have seen any
signs Of the interest being takeh
in Idaho's gold resources, but
such interest IT IS widespread al
ready ana IS destined TO take
wider ana Yet wider range.
Idaho county has goIa fields of
vast extent. One Branch q the
;taS5d road is. designed to
open Up one great district there.
If the road Be built that district
will develop rapidly. Unless
all authorities be wrong, that
is capable Of supporting
an immense population. If
Of contamination should ,
be opened 50 that promoters and
investors tor could get 70 it while
the search 70 r gold mines is at
its height, it would develop
quickly; and the increased taxes
which 1t wtS'd pour into The ,
,ountys treasury would, in a
very few Years, fiqnidate Il the en-
lire proposed wagon road in
restment.

Starving Cattle.

Surviving CaCtle.
A sad case of animal restitution and
suffering was discovered by Mrs. J. NJ.
Bartholomew Tuesday at the Wogan
place, near Prospect Heights. The own
er of the place has a number of cattle,
COWS principally, and from their ap, ear.
ance, the animals have been kept on
little, if any, food for. some time. All of
the COWS are sadly fallen away in flesh,
some of them being SO poor that
the bones seem to protrude through the
skin. One of them died in the chilly
rain storm night before last, and last
night, another of them, so poor as to be
unable to move, was left outside, to pass
the night in the midst of a drizzling cold
rain. Mrs. Bartholomew last night had
a tent taken up, and erected over this
one, to shelter it, it being impossible to
move it to any place Of shelter. This
morning, the COWS were taken in charge
by this klnd-hearted lady, who had food
taken to them, and afterward had them
taken to the Robidou barn across the
track, where they will be cared for, one
OF the COWS being SO far gone as to have
to be hauled to it's new home on a draw.
The condition and appearance of the
animals was certainly pitible, and, in
consideration of the circumstances in the
case, Mrs. Bartholomew had a warrant
sworn out against the owner Of the cattle
aud he had a hearing this afternoon.
