There was an increase OF nearly S@o@U III de-
mands upon the State Treasury as compared with
year ago and it is not surprising that Governor
Morton was distressed when Colonel Ashley W
Cole his nrivate secretary, handed him paper
showing that there were bills before the Legis!a-
ture making the following additional extra appro-
x~,fa,
Idaho County free press. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho Territory) 1886-current, 1895-03-22

The new mining law has no
emergency clause, and in accord
ance with a constitutional provis-
ion will not go into effect until sixty
days after the adjournment of the
legislature. This will be sixty days
after March 8. All claims located
within this time must be located
under the old law. The new law
compels the locator to sink a shaft,
four feet across each way and ten
feet deep, or run cut or tunnel
which will be ten feet deep at the
face, within sixty days after dis
covery, and within thirty days
thereafter must record. In place
of stakes or monuments blazed
trees are allowed in making
boundaries, the blazes to be
on the the side facing the
claim. The claim must be
staked within three days after dis
covery. The new law is the same as
the old in regard to amending To-
cations. We will publish it en-
tirely next week.

The Wagon Road Bill.

There is no sense in calling Gov.
Mcconnell harsh names because he
vetoed the wagon road bill. He
gives as his reason for the veto that
the constitutional limit of bonded
Indebtedness had been reached ex-
cept $4,000. There is no doubt
but that this is the fact, and on
these grounds he was certainly
justified in vetoing the bill. But
on the other hand he recommended
the completion of the road in his
message to the legislature, and was
otherwise pledged to support and
approve it. Other legislation car
rying large appropriations not half
so necessary to the material well
fare of the state was promptly ap-
proved until the constitutional
limit was reached. The FREE PRESS
would rather say good word for
public official than a harsh one
at any time but we have about
come to the conclusion that Gov.
Mcconnell is what a good many
good republicans have always
thought him-a id rascal.

4 Visit to Cotton scOOd.

We spent a couple of days in
Cottonwood last week, but owing
to the inclement weather did not
get around much and therefore had
few opportunities of seeing people
and noting improvements. The
town, however. is making sub
stantial growth for these hard
times, and all hands are building
great expectations upon the. loca-
ton of the proposed packing house
there. Six hundred tons of ice
have already been stored for use in
this enterprise. The location Sc
lected is on the north side OF the
creek in the east end of town. A
very handsome and substantial
brewery building has been erected
in the heart Of tow n by Messrs.
Hendricks & Schroeder, of Reuter-
Vile, 1t is 40x64 feet, and the pro-
prietors hope to open up about the
middle of April. Nuxoll 4 Stub
bers have built an addition which
doubles the capacity of their store.
Three blacksmiths are located
there and all are doing well. At
the general merchandise stores Of
Wax & Brown and Samuel Gold
stone we noted a steady trade at
all hours, the greater portion of it
being done on strictly cash busi-
ness. The Wayland House was
crowded to its utmost capacity and
the proprietor talks of putting up a
new building for hotel purposes the
coming season. 4 large number of
new rooms have been added to the
Cottonwood House, and as all are
occupied it is safe to assume that
Mr.. Brown is prospering in his new
location. Ben Gerding runs the
only saloon in the town at present,
but there is promise of several 9th
ers opening up in the spring. A 80
foot flag pole has been erected on
Main street below the postoffice.
Bro. Taylor is striving hard 10 res
urect the Cottonwood Report, and
has our best wishes for success as
he is gentleman and worker
and gets out good paper. Like
all the towns on Camas Prairie
Cottonwood will benefit greatly by
the opening Of the reservation, t.
which everybody is looking for
ward with the hope of profit. Th'
real estate agents report many in
quires about the town from out
siders, and the residents anticipat
a sharp demand for town propert.
when spring opens.

A Fine. building.

The new building going up east
of Grange hall is being erected
jointly by Charity Grange No. IL,
Patrons of Husbandry and w. A.
Hall. 1t will have u frontage on
Main street of 81 feet, depth of
so feet and two stories high, with
tin roof and glass front. A hall
way will run through the center of
the building. The upstairs will be
subdivided into Offices for profess
sional men, etc. II. S. Arbogast
has the contract for erecting it,,
and When completed will material
ly fill up one of the unsightly gaps
which now exist on Main street. DIR.
Shaeffer will remove his drng store
into Mr.. Halls portion of the low
er floor; II. A. Steinke will estab-
lish his stock of hardware in the
Grange part, aud Miss Me. Robin
son will occupy the west section as
millinery and dressmaking par
lors. Charity Grange has done
more towards building up the town
of Grangeville in proportion to its
limited means than any individual
it it. They may strictly be
called the fathers of the town. II
was the grangers who started the
Touring mill, built the Grange hal
and induced the laying out of the
. town site.

legislature. Hon. joshua q. Rowton, !
proved a faithful representative ofl
his constituency throughout the !
session. His vote is recorded
favorably on every proposition
looking towards reduction OF ex-
penses in the administration Of the
state government and also in the
abolition of all appointive officers.
He labored faithfully and success
fully to abolish the boiler and mine
inspectors, and was instrumentalin
knocking out lot of expensive
Jobs which were introduced to
make fat places for partisan work
ers. Mr.. Rowton had an apportion-
ment bill drafted similar to the one
which became law, but did not
introduce it as there was no use in
being contentious for the mere glory
of the thing, when colleague had
an equally meritorious measure to
present. His hardest work was in
securing the passage of the wagon
road bill. At the outset Mr.. Row
ton was appointed chairman of
the committee on roads, bridges
and ferries, which had all
wagon road bills in its care.
This was an important step gained.
But when Mr.. Rowton called his
committee together to consider his
own bill, his colleagues on the COM
mittee told him point blank that
they would not support it. This
was enough to discourage any or
dinary man from going ahead but
our Josh introduced his little bill
and by good, faithful and diplo-
matte work finally secured its pas
sage through both houses by large
majorities. The bill, as our read
ers know, was finally killed by
Gov. McConnell's veto, an exhibi-
ton of bad faith which has also
killed Mcconnell himself, but this
fact does not detrac. from Mr.. Row
toms credit. The telcgraphiC

ings published in our inside pages
during tho session report Mr.. Row

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Some Cscfui Legislation.

The legislature passed some use-
ful laws during its cventful session.
1t abolished tho offices Of mine in
spector and boiler inspector, made
a new Legislative apportionment
which abolishes joint representa-
ton and gives to Idaho county one
senator and two representatives in
the halls of legislation and un-
der which each county has but ono
senator. 1t abolished the mer-
chants license, and amended tho
liquor and gambling licenses SO
that so per cent. thereof goes to the
school fund of the district where
said licenses are collected, 40 per
cent. to the general road fund Of
the county, and the remaining ten
per cent. to the state. Thus one
half Of the license money collected
in Grangeville will go to Grange
vile school district. The new
micing law is designed to prevent
the location of mining claims for
speculation. The law requires ten
feet of tunnel or shaft, to be done
on each claim within sixty days of
locating. There are three proposed
constitutional amendments for the
people to vote on next election, a.
follows: l, Woman suffrage; 2,
county attorneys; 3, the one we
voted on and adopted last year, to
separate the Office of probate judge
and county school superintendent.
The latter amendment was adopted
last year by an overwhelming ma
jority but;by an outrageous deci~iop
of the attorney. general, doubt
was cast upon the legality Of its
adoption by quibble on the word
"majority." The encouragement
says in effect that the people
should not be allowed to amend
the constitution of this state--aI
unheard of proposition that ought
to cause his retirement to thu
caves of Adulam with those who
. lived several centuries ago.
