Last fall. while on visit to her mother. Mrs.
erosion was seized with paroxysm Of hic-
coughs while dining. and had to be taken from
her carriage TO q farmhouse where she was
under medical ATTENDANCE for several days.
This attack greatly debilitated the young

slight annoyance from that time until Christi

POSSIBLE AUCTION.

A gentleman suggested to the writer,
the other day, that, in his opinion, the
county offices could be conducted for
much less money than they are now
costing. In order to bring about the
desired economic measure he proposed
that the various political parties should
agree upon a fixed compensation for
officers irrespective of legal provisions.
While there would be no way of en-
forcing such an arrangement, the sup
position is that the pressure of public
opinion would hold officers to their
ante. election promises. This is no new
idea, neither would it be new in prac-
tice, as it involves principle which
was in vogue in England hundreds of
years ago. The farming out of public
Offices has many advantages, also some
drawbacks. We do not propose to dis
cuss the proposition just now, though.
Perhaps it might be a good thing to
try during the present hard times and
we suggest instead of county conven-
tons, county public auction where
the Offices will be sold to the highest
and best bidder for cash. An Office
that is worth $1,000 per annum may
fetch in the market $500 which sum
can be covered into the general treas
ury. Just think it over.

THE WIND STORM.

Suffer.

Last Sunday between the hours of 10
a. N. and 2 p. M, this country was
visited by one of the most violent wind
storms ever known. The damage to
buildings was not great though in some
cases quite serious Tin roofs suffered
considerably several hundred square
feet on the M. Is. Gwinn Mercantile
Cos building being torn off. Some
OuthOuses were blown over and the
high board fence around the base ball
grounds almost ruined. The greatest
damage was done to fruit trees, shrub
berry and shade trees. A great guam
tity of fruit was blown off and the
leaves OF vegetation shriveled up and
turned black as though exposed to the
breath OF a blast furnace. The wind
did not seem to be very hot and its &C.
ton on vegetation can hardly be &C.
counted for. The oldest settlers say
no such wind was ever before known in
this religion. The damage to trees will
hardly be permanent except where they
were broken off. In Nampa the dam
age was substantially the same here.
Out houses and sheds were upset, some
fences blown over, windows blown in,
etc. The telephone between Nampa
and Boise suffered several breaks.
The general result on orchards is not
yet known but no doubt the damage is
