Speaking of the remark of MIR.
Armour, that the South is worth

ket, MIR. Kimbsll asks the question:
"Why not raise it here?" 1 am
gong, said he, to spend q little
money to answer to conundrum.
The Charleston News and Courier
also asks what MIR. Armour meant
by the declaration, and proceeds to
answer its own question in the fol.
lowing manner:
In Its last statement of the imports
ana exports of the United States the
bureau OF Statistics of the Treasury
department presents some very in.
teresting Information upon the sub.
lect. During the eleven months end.
ing November, 1894, the exports of
bacon, hams and other hog products
from the United States to the United
Kingdom, Germany, France and
other European points amounted to
sou so, $50 pounds, valued at $685.
900, 756. OF bacon there were 36S.
36I ,293 pounds. valued at S3I,G2

pounds, valued at SIS, 303, 33l; of
pork, fresh and picked, there were
l7,OO7, 1929 pounds, valued at 81
289, 4GS; of lard there we're 3i6-
931,272 pounds, valued at SIS, 679
3S9. OF course Mr.. Armour did not
export all the hog products from the
United States and Of course he does
not sell all the bacon, hams aud
other hog products in the South.
If the South is worth two Europes
to HIM as market for his pork
products, 1t Is worth two Eurones
to MIR. Armour's competitors in the
business, aud the figures wa have
gwen show what this meana. II
means that the South buys twice
the quantity of pork products that
are bought by the whole of Eurone
or / ,GGl. 756. $50 pounds, at an az
pendlture of Sl39. SU1, 5l2. Isitauy
wonder that the Southern peopls
are poor? Is 1t any wonder that
the farmers cannot make ends meet
when nearly Sl40,0UO. 600 of the
revenue derived from the Southern
cotton crops goes TO pay for less

bacon aud lard?"
The Southern farmer is opening
his Dyes to these important facts and
possibilities, however, and in mspv
cases more attention is being given
to the raising OF pork products by
the Southern farmers than has been
known before in its history.
Indeed, there seems to be deter.

BONNER COUNTY PETITIONS LOST.
Sensation Sprung in the Legislature at
Boise.

Boise Idaho, January %. - Some
thing of sensation was sprung
in the house over the Bonner county bill.
The bill came up as a special order at
2;l5 and the house went into committee
OF the whole to consider it, Crane and
Henry reported that they each left sew
eral petitions bearing on the pending
measure on their desks when they went
TO lunch. They were not there when
they returned, and they presumed that
they had been stolen. In view of this
tact the committee recommended that
action on the measure be deferred for
one week. The recommendation was
concurred in by the house. A commit
tee of Messrs. Hughes, Browne and Da-
Wis was appointed to ascertain, if posi-
BILE, who removed the petitions 1t was
ordered that the chief of police of Boise
be notified of the fact
Among the bills introduced in the
house was one by Mr.. Hughes prohib-
iting employers from owning or being
interested in any store for the purpose
of selling implements, supplies or cloth
ing to employees, and making it unlaw-
tul for employers to deduct any sum
from the wages of employees, except for
money or checks advanced, or for such
sum as may have been mutually agreed
upon.
The senate passed Mr.. Brownies bill
for renting one years interest from
the purchases of state lands In COM
mittee of the whole it recommended the
passage of a bill to compel insurance
companies to pay losses in full, notwith-
standing there are three-fourths claus
es in the policies.

mileage from 35 cents TO 20 cents and the
reducing of keepers fees to 81 per day.
CLERKS FEES.
He suggests the following reductions
in clerks fees: In all cases where copies
are furnished for parties. the fee for
certifying to the correctness thereto
shall not exceed % cents; for issuing
decree or order of sale, reduce to 10
cents; strike out provision for 10 cents
for swearing witnesses. In cases of
appeal from justice or probate courts,
where the judgement exclusive of costs
does not exceed $25, it should not be
appealable
A change in the law so as to allow
cOnstables and justices a more reason
able compensat ton for their services is
recommended. He would also author
ize district judges to call special ses-
sions OF the district court for the pur-
pose of passing on demurrers and mo-
tons, so that when the regular term is
called the court can proceed to the
regular business Of trial by jury, as,
under the present system, when court is
called in regular session, the docket is
in such a condition that delay and I'M
necessary expenses are incurred. He
further suggests that the insolvency
law be so amended that an assignee
may be elected in open court or at cham
bers after notice given of 30 days as
now required.

CANAL INDIAN TROUBLE.
Belief That the Government Has Asked
for Federal Troops

Genesee. Idaho. Jan. 2S.-All is not
quiet on the Nez Perez reservation now.
The Canal Indians are on the warpath.
1t seems they are not satisfied with the
treaty, and many of them are now
camped at Fort Lapwai and are talk
ing saucy to the Nez Perces. Colonel
Lane has been at the fort some 10 days
taking the census of the Indians and
making the necessary list preparatory
for paying the first appropriation Of
$65O,O00. The Indian police have been
busy the past week keeping the Canal
Indians in check 1t Was stated in Cen
esee Saturday that a telegram had been
sent to Washington for federal troops.
Things are beginning to look little like
trouble on the reservation now, and it
may be necessary for troops to keep the
Canal Indians in submission.
The following petition was circulated
in Genesee Saturday and was signed
by many Of the leading pOpulists of
Genesee:
ITO the Hon. T. r. Miller H. Heitfeldt
and John S. Randolph, in Legislature.
Boise, Idaho:
1T is the unqualified wish of the pop
ulist party of Latah county that you
stay with Claggett until the end, but if
deemed imperatively necessary to sup
port any republican then it is our wish
that you support Hon. Willis Sweet for
United States senator, by all means"

Boise. Idaho. Jan. 23.-The senatorial
contest was given a sensational turn
today by the news of the burning in

that the general public had of it was

ing. He said he had received dispatches
from home which made him uncertain
what he should do until he should have
made further investigation There was
no objection and ne did not vote. The
galleries broke into loud applause when
Senator Dewey voted for Shoup, he
having heretofore voted with the 10

result of the ballot was: Sweet 19, Shoup

for instance, that the populists demand

the members were present. Two bal

present in anticipation Of a possible
change, but the spectators were disap
pointed. All excitement has died down
again, and tonight the situation seems
locked tighter than ever. The excite
ment of yesterday appears to have arts
en- entirely from Judge Clagetts change

support Sweet. They show no inclina-
ton to follow his advice, though it is
supposed he would be able to swing
them.
