Governor Stevenson Dead.

Ex- Governor E. A. Stevenson, of
Idaho, died at Paraiso Springs health
resort near San Louis Obispo, Cal, on
the 9th instant. Mr.. Stevenson had
been suffering from sciatica for some
time past and went TO California for re-
lief, some six weeks ago. His friends
in Idaho, from letters received from
him, had hoped he was getting better
From reports received since his death,
it is thought that his complaint had
come back upon him in such painful
form that in his desperation he had
taken his own life by taking dose of
laudaunum.
Governor Stevenson came to Idaho
in 1868, from California, whittier he
had gone from Michigan in 1S4S. He
has been conspicuous figure in public
affairs in Idaho from the date of his ar
rival, and was appointed governor of
the territory of Idaho by President
Cleveland in 1885. While governor he
distinguished himself and won the
gratitude of the majority of the people
of the territory by inducing President
Cleveland to veto bill passed by con-
gress to segregate the territory Of Idaho.
He WIS the Democratic candidate for
Governor last year, meeting with de-
feat. He was man OF sterling integ-
rity, and possessed the affections of the
people of Idaho in marked degree.

Railroad.

Mr.. c. R. Shaw, the Canyon county
lumberman and railroad promoter, was
over during the week. He expresses
confidence that the Butte, Caldwell &
California enterprise will materialize.
Mr.. E. T. Woodworth, one of the pro-
moters, started south from Caldwell
several!days ago accompanied by Mr..
Clark, to reconoiter the proposed route
to Red Bluff and San Francisco. They
follow, substantially, the old Uuion
Pacific survey southwark, going frou.
Caldw ell several miles west OF Rock
vile, through Mahogany gap to Glow
er's ranch, near Cow Creek Lakes. The
nearest point to DeLamar would be
near F. P. BalPs ranch on Cow Creek.
From Payette east, the route is to the
Payette river and up the sonth fork Of
that river, crossing over divide to and
up the Salmon river. They have recon
offered the route from Butte southwest
and Mr. Woodworth is probably at this
date in California with a guide and
pack train, going over the southwestern
end of the proposed route.
The promoters claim that the Payette
route to Butte will be about 70 miles
shorter than the route formerly viewed

Is BE an Anarchist? /?

Had the following ntterances eme-
mated from western orator or come
out in an editorial in some western
newspaper, the organs of the trusts and
the bankers would have cried "Anar-
chist!' but as the sentiments were ex-
pressed by Justice Brown, of the United
States Supreme Court, in an address de-
llivered before the Yale Law School,
they will be overlooked. They were
not the "crazy utterances'i of a Senator
Stewart or PETER and they will be
condoned or pass unnoticed:
"Whereverathe proposed business is
of a public or semi-public character,
and requires special privileges of the
State or a partial delegation of govern
mental powers, there would seem to be
no sound reason why such franchises
which are for the supposed benefit OF
the public should not be exercised di-
rectly for the public Such, at least, is
the tendency in modern legislation in
nearly every highly civilized State but
our own, where great corporate inter-
ests, by parading the dangers of pattern
alism and socialism, have succeeded in
securing franchises which properly be-
long to the public.
"While have no doubt of the ulti-
mate settlement of our social problem
upon a reasonable and judicious basis,
there are undoubtedly certain perils
which menace the immediate future of
the country and even threaten the sta
bility of It's institutions. The most
prominent of these are municipal cor
ruption, corporate greed and the tyran-
ny of labor. Though am unwilling to
believe that corporations are solely re-
sponsible for our municipal misgovern-
ment, the fact remains that bribery and
corruption are so universal as to threat
en- the very structure of society"

up the Boise; that it will pass through
much better timbered country and
that it will avoid heavy grades and tun-
nels which the Boise ronte would re-
quire.
The gentlemen also assert they have
assured arrangements for placing bonds
and raising all the money required.
Their proposition is TO first construct
the road from the Payette timber sec
tions west to Caldwell and then begin
its extension south. They assert that
work will certainly begin on the Cald-
well and Payette river division before
the close Of the year.

The Commercial Company's store is
almost daily receiving fresh supplies of
goods and carry heavy stock in almost
every required line of merchandise.
The change in the business of this COM
pany to strictly cash basis has enabled
it to put all prices away below usual
prices here. Fora while the business
dropped off considerably, but people
who pay promptly are now realizing
that they are benefited by the better
system by not having to help make up
for losses incurred through crediting
men who fail to pay.

The executive committee of the BIZ
metallic Union, organized at the Salt
Lake Silver Conference beld May 10th,
met at Salt Lake on the 9th and 10th
instants, to complete arrangements for
the silver campaign to be carried on un-
til the next presidential election. The
committee decided upon fixing Chicago
as the headquarters of the Union, and
Secretary Light will at once be located
there. where he may be at close range
with the adversary. No definite plans Of
raising funds has as yet been promul-
gated by the committee, but every
friend to the cause of free coinage may
be expected TO be called upon for con-
tribntions, sooner or later, and when
money is contributed all may feel as
sured that it will be jidiciously ex-
pended, as the affairs of the Union viii
be in charge of earnest and Jealous
friends of our common cause.

Better Times and Railroad Building

With every kind of business being
done upon q falling market for 30 long a
time, enormous sums of money have
been locked up in vaults which nobody
wanted to borrow or risk putting into
business. There has more idle money
accumulated in the great financial CEN
ters than perhaps ever at any one time
before. Just as soon as the belief be-
comes general that the tide oflow prices
has reached its lowest ebb, all of this
money will be turned loose and better
times will prevail. That the low tide
has been reached is now the belief of
many and the result is to be seen al
ready in the rise which has taken place
in oil, wheat, iron and numerous other
products and in the starting up of many
industries, with voluntary advances
made in wages. Good or bad times are
made, to some extent, by general senti-
ment and, apparently, the sentiment or
feeling of business men is not now near
ly as pessimistic as it was at abe begin
ming of the year, and that alone is
helping to create better times. If peo-
pie quit looking and feeling blue they
inspire hopefulness in others and all
the world is improved thereby.
One of the first results which any i'm
provement in business will bring about
will be increased railroad construction
mot the building of roads in advance
oftheir need, as has been. done in boom
times, but the completion of enter
prises long ago contemplated or the
building of roads where the demand for
them now exists. Already a move is
being made to connect Salt Lake with
Southern California, and promoters are
examining the country between Butte
and San Francisco. Both of these en-
terprises were contemplated before the
panic of 1898 and that they are the first
in the West to be again taken up de-
notes their feasibility if not their ne
cessity.
chiefly concerns the people of Idaho, it
ought to be thoroughly discussed, that
the part it will play in the welfare
of one state may be better comprehend
ed. From the point where this line
would enter the state from the east to
where it would leave it in the south
,,oet COMMON - Omybaa - .,onld troxr
erse a country with wealth of miner
ais and timber and with sections of ag-
ricultural territory not excelled any
where. 1t would result in the develop
ment of country equal to that of any
portion of the west.
1t would give one or more of the
trunk lines now reaching westward as
far as Montana, making one of the best
and most practicable routes to the coast.
It would give San Francisco another
opportunity to compete for trade
which she once controlled bat lost
years ago.
Let us hope that the present pro-
moters, now reconoitering the route
from here toward San Francisco may
have the capital and enterprise behind
them to secure the construction Of the
road. 1t is quite certain that when an
era of railroad construction begins
again this will be one of the first roads
built. For the good of the people of
Idaho the sooner it is begun the better.

Both the old political parties are de-
termined to fight the financial question
during lhe next campaign on old party
lines. Both are now lodging the ques-
ton in every possible manner. Both
know it viii be the only issue which
will attract attention fthe majority OF
voters. Why nor the people array
themselves on tbeir respective sides
now and force the leaders of the par
ties to declare themselves?

The third baby girl has entered the
household of President Cleveland and a
whole nation wishes her and her moth
er supreme happiness. The graceful
mother is filing the position of the first
lady in the Republic, most happily, and
the more enemies the President makes
by his arrogance and dictatorial course,
the more the people respect and esteem
the beautiful and estimable lady who
shares his fortunes and monopolizes
the affections of a people who waste no
love on the husband and father of her
children.

The eastern people, who contemplate
joining the Plymouth colony, to be es-
tablished in Payette valley, sent out a
committe to examine the character of
the country, the feasibility of the
scheme, etc The committee has re-
turned and made its report which is
considerably more favorabla than the
representations made by the promoters
of the enterprise. This is an unusual
thing, butt is notsurprising. The peo-
pie in the splendid agricultural valleys
of Idaho fail to realise all the advanta-
ges they possess as readily as those who
can value them by comparison with
other sections of country.

house. pulled in an alarm from box 81, AND
notified Falmouth 4,whicA is situated across
the street.
When The fire burst out from the laundry,
Mr.. french ran into the room to try and
quench the flames. He couldn't 10 it and
was pulled out badly scorohed and taken
over o No. As house. where his burns were
dressed. The ell was occupied by the fam
lilies of Captain Phillips of the revenue
steamer Woodbury. and Lieutenant De
Hart of the revenue steamer Dallas. Mr..
Deake, ex-eity auditor. and Miss Deake also
had rooms there, and other boardeIs in the
house were Mr.. and Mrs. W. H. Ingraham.

SO rapidly did the fire spread through he
ell that, although the chemical did it's best
the fire seemed to nave got into the wall I.

ell was pretty we'll gutted, but the main
house is not badly damaged.
Mr.. Kicker said that the value of the fur
niture was about $1,000. and there was o
insurance upon it. Probably only small
part of it in the rear of the main house is
badly used up. The house, which is owned
by Herman j. Weber. is probably damaged
