The Emmett index. [volume] (Emmett, Idaho) 1893-1925, 1895-03-23

Last Sunday night the inmates Of the
Canyon county Jail, took French leave
by saving through the steel cages. and
digging through the brick wall. The
ages are as substantial as need be, and
sheriff Campbell is Of the opinion that
some confederate on the outside succeed
passing in SAWS. with which the pris-
oners cut their way out. Four prisoners
were in the Jail at the time. ali OF whom
are known TO be hard cases. Their
names are, Ed Smith and George Ham
ilton. charged with holding up a sheep
herder near Nampa. A. v Linder, charg
ed with forgery. and Geo. Wheeler chsrg-
ed with cattle stealing
The commissioners should have the
Jail lined throughout with steel, or made
secure in some manner. so that We could
have some assurance that when a crimi-
nai is once locked up. he can be held for
al. Jail breaking is becoming a sort
o. chestnut in Canyon county. but with
such an insecure jail, nothing else is to
be expected.

TIE WILLOW CREEK MINES.

On Tuesday Of this week the index
man accepted an invitation from Mr..
VIII Hall to drive over to the mines.
We found the new road in fine shape
srd something Of which every citizen
Of Emmett can be proud. especially
the ones who contributed 70 The build
ing Of il. The camp is lively every body
busy, and as full Of faith in the camp
as an egg is Of meat. The stamp mill be-
ing erected by the Richmond Bros. &
Prout will be ready to run by the last
Of next week, and then we will soon
know just what there is in the rock
The mill is little beauty and there is
no doubt but that it will do good work.
and as for the ore, all the doubter needs
10 convince him in that line is a few
handsfull Of ore and prospecting pan
and he can see for himself.
A larpe amount OF development work
is being done at present and as soon as
the miners can get some ore crushed
and get some money, more work will
be done.
The residents Of the camp feel very
kindly towards the people Of Emmett
because Of the interest manifested By
our people in the welfare and develop
ment Of the camp, and already the
trade which is springing up between the
two points is considerable and gives prom
ise Of great natural benefit in the future.
Mr.. II. P. Cox is working on his prop

An appropriate name for the new
camp, is a subject that is arousing
considerable interest and among the
names that have been suggested Pearl

and that will probably be the final
choice Messrs Waterh0use and Cox Of

PATAL STEPS.

The way Of the transgressor is hard. "
This fact is brought very directly to our
notice from the news that comes 10 US Of
the sad fate of some who are well known
here.
From the San Francisco Chronicle Of
the 5th. inst. we learn that at Salinas. on
that date, Judge n A. Dorm sentenced
Mont Sh@w 10 imprisonment for life at
San Quentin for the killing Of Eugene
Mason last November. The jury brought
in verdict Of murder in the second de-
gree.
Some will recall the two brothers. Jim
and Frank Perkins, who were in the
county jail here for some time. for rob
berry committed in Indian valley. on
complaint Of one Zimmerman; and while
there was little doubt Of their guilt, they
escaped conviction. These same parties
killed Geo. Dickerson in Idaho county
and were acquitted by some technicality
when common sense indicated that on
general principles they ought to have
hung. Leaving here they went TO Cal
ifornia and kept up their record by kill
ing a Chinsmsn and robbIng him Of sew
en- hundred dollars. For this crime they
have been convicted and sentenced to
life imprisonment.-Weiser Signal.

HarrIty Issues a Call.

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 13.-W.
T. Harrity, chairman of the demo-
cratic national committee, this after
noon requested the secretary of the
committee to notify the members
thereof to assemble in Washington
on January 16 next for the purpose
Of selecting the time and place for
holding the next democratic nation
al convention. Chairman Harrity
has received letters from commercial
bodies in fifty cities urging the ma
tional committee to select late date
for the convention. Business people
contend that long campaign unset
ties trade and they therefore want
the political battle made as short as
possible. It is believed that date
not later than the middle of June
will be selected.
A committee is to meet at the
