Yankees Getting Even.

California prunes are being sold in
France and Switzerland, packed in
cases, similar to those used in France
and bearing French marks so as to de-
ceiye the consumers and make them
believe they are buying French fruit.
This is in some degree retaliation or
counter imposition to the practice the
French people have INDUCED in for
so long, of shipping back to this coun-
try, as the finest French products,
Maine herring and Southern cotton
seed oil in the shape of sardines and
olive oil. Neither practice is tc be
commended, but American prunes are
able to stand on their own merits and
suffer nothing by comparison with the
French product.

Charles Baker came in from Silver
City Tuesday morning and brought
some interesting news items. He says
it has been claimed that there were
only two Republicans in the town OF
Silver, but Mr.. Hollenbeak, who lives
there and has the dough, is offering to
bet any sum from 81 to $1,000, that 30
Mckinley votes will be cast in Silver
City. Mr.. Baker says he thinks he
could do rushing and profitable busi-
ness selling the Boise Statesman at %
cents a copy Caldwell Tribune.
As Mr.. Baker never did a very rush
ing business during his visits to Owy-
hee, here is a chance for him. We
would like to see him rushing around
crying, Here's your Statesman, two
bits p It would be about his size.

The goldbugs of Owyhee are reported
to have held a conclave in back room
in Silver City, one night during the
week. Six of them assembled in the
gloom and talked about tariff and ma
tional honor for an hour or more. The
one lone goldbug of DeLamar and the
one at BoonviIle were not present, and
three or four sheep owners we're absent,
1t was dismal and disconsolate few
that made up the conclave.

is anything that Idaho has insisted
upon for the last three or four years it
is the rehabilitation Of silver. Without
distinction of party the men Of Idaho
approved Senator Dubois's action in
the Senate and at ST. Louis, and if now
the purpose is to snow the Senator un-
der, it shows want Of fairness which a
Republican organization was never
charged with, and is indirectly a blow

1t appears that Owyhee was really
represented in Boise at the Republican
State Convention after all. The County
Convention elected the regular num-
Der of delegates; but they only went
over for fun and wore the "bolter's"
badge. Two patriotic gentlemen were
on hand, however, to see that Owyhee's
name stood for "national honor" They
were Messrs. Robert Noble and George
Washington Palmer. That was the
meaning of the secret conclave which
held meeting in back room in Silver
City last week. 1t was Repub-
lican County Convention. Chair
man Simon Harris's big gathering of
Republicans in Silver a fortnight ago
was only mob of anarchists after all.
Mr.. Bob Noble holds more mortgages
upon Owyhee property than all of
Chairman Harris's crowd put together.

1t is fact that the people in the east
are not more than half aroused on the
Importance of free coinage. They are
still listening to the sophistries Of the
managers of insurance companies,
brokers and money lenders. Every ar
gument that these goldbugs make is
based upon as unsound premises as
one of Sherman's speeches and can be
easily knocked down by any one who
sees this important question in the true
light. A few people here in Idaho are
doing a work in which thousands
should be engaged; they are writing
letters to their eastern friends in sup
port of their free coinage belief. This
great contest must not be allowed to go
by default in any county of the Union.
No man-at least no one but genius
should attempt to give a treatise on the
subject in friendly letter; but few
brief earnest sentences from an old ac-
quaintance will do more to waken the
interest of an eastern man and con
vince him that the question is desery-
ing of careful study than can be ac-
complished by a hundred newspaper
editorials or a half bushel of monetary
tracts. Try it.

A pleasant acquaintance with the
democratic nominee for governor of
Idaho, for the past eight years, impels
us to remark that the late democratic
convention made no mistake in the sell
ection of nominee for that Office. Mr..
Frank Steunenberg is a man of affairs,
who has ever stood in for the best in
terests of the people in the state; is a
gentleman of exemplary habits and
morals; is honest and capable and, if
he achieves the honor of becoming the
chief executive Of Idaho, viii fill the po-
sition most honorably and satisfactor-
lily. 1t is always a pleasure to speak Of
a candidate of an opposing party in
such terms and doubly SO in this in
stance because we are able to do so
from personal acquaintance, always
extremely pleasant. The republican
party will have to pick up big man to
stand any show for the goyernership at
the coming election.

The selection of a candidate for the
mine inspectorship of Idaho, by the
democratic party, has fallen to Owyhee
County, and to Mr.. B. F. Hastings, a
gentleman who has been miner and a
business man in this county for nearly
twenty-five years, holding in that time
only one Office, thatof sheriff. He is a
pleasant gentleman, of fine address and
good education and is capable and hon
est If he wins, the opposition will
have little cause to be disappointed and
the mine owners and employees will
find him good man.

The Conventions.

The great disrupted Republican party
of Idaho has been having an interest
ing time of it in Boise, this week. The
delegates from the several counties in
the state, instead of meeting and wrang-
ling with the little handful of goldbugs
belonging to the Shoup-Heyburn-Mc-
Connell faction, just let the goldbugs
fix up a little convention of their own
and shout Mckinley and tariff as loud
ly as they chose while the regular State
Convention went on with its business.
The result was two conventions, one
comprising the entire goldbug vote of
the state and the other made up of sill
yer men.
At this hour we are only able to give
an imperfect list os the nominations of
the two conventions.

by the Attorney General this witness SAID

Where the Transfer Act
Puts the Council.
Union Railroad Company Filed
Acceptance Today.
What Mr.. Blodgett Says About the
Effect Of This Action.

President Nelson W. Aldrich, in behalf
Of the Union Railroad Company, has TO.
day filed the acceptance Of the transfer
act by the company with Secretary OF
State Bennett.
Chairman Blodgett OF the--Houso Judic-
iary Committee, which recommended the
passage OF the substitute bill, stated at
ter the official acceptance today that the
bill has now become a law.
1t will be operative as soon as the city
and company agree upon a location, and
the city gives such location TO tho COM
pany for the purpose of transfer station
hs provided for in the first section of thS
bill.
The second section goes into effect to-
day and therefore the fare which the
Union Railroad Company shall charge ID
liked at five cents. no more and no less,
from now until 1912.
The resulting situation at City Hall IL
almost laughable, that is for everyone not
there officially. III ever there was leg
islative boomerang 1t was the resolution
passed by the Common Council and Board
OF Aldermen instructing their special
committee to go to the Legislature and
demand the passage of transfer act
without compensation.
Councilman George J.. West IL the only
member OF that committee who is now
entitled to say, 81 told you so."
Aldermen Burbank and Mccarthy and
Councilmen Kavanaugh, Tanner and
Gardner, especially Gardner. must now
wish they were not where they are. A
member OF the Legislature and q, city
member, at that. said today, "Taose fei-
lows from city nall thought they- had us
IN hole and now what do you think OF
the holo they're in?'
Mr.. Gardner and Mr.. Burbank of the
Second Ward were elected as ''resorm-
ers, last fall, and their cam paign cry
was "transfes for the dear people,
''They didn't really mean transfers, not
so quick, at any rate, because they
wanted to use the same old cry again next
fall, and for as many fails thereafter as
they should want TO go back to the Coun-
Gil, perhaps until II was time for them to
be Mayor and Governor and then, but
not until then, to really substitute tho
fact for the cry"
But the fact has materialized. The
people as matter of fact do want trans
fers under such system as is now pro-
vided for, and whether they have them
or not no longer depends on the railroad
company or the General Assembly, but
on the action of Mr.. Gardner and his as
sociates in the present City Council.
The threat of a year ago, "If this Coun-
Gil won't g.t us transfers we will eject
one that WILL. " is now in order again,
but the situation is reversed.
Ii the Council does MAKE the necessary
agreement TO bring about the transfer
system now, they must endorse an act OF
the Legislature which they have openly
denounced as an abomlna6le outrage. II
the Council does not make the necessary
arrangements they will break their prom
ises to get transfers publicly made to-
their constituents last November.
