Assault ut Silvanite

onerln Ryan yesterday received a
Celegram from Leonia, signed by
Wnltcomb & Dolye, of Silvanlte ask
Ing him to come and arrest man for
assault with deadly weapon. The
message was answered, the sheriff
statlng that he would come on the
nrst train, but before starting he re-
celved another message saying the
man mad got out of the country. 1t
is question whether our sheriff
would have the right to arrest man
at Si.vanite, as it may be In Montana.
This state line matter should be set
tied without delay. as Silvanite is a
FAST growing town and some of our
officers may be called there for duty
any day, and if bills for such service
are presented to the commissioners for
allowance the question of legality Of
the charges would surely arise. Last
week Coroner Sabin went to Silvanite
to hold an inquest. and if he presents
his bill for such service before the
state line question is settled, it is
doubtful if the commissioners have a
right to consider it. This would GER
tainly be an injustice to the coroner,
but Kootenai county should not pay
bills for which Montana may be H.
able. We understand that Sheriff
Ryan has written to Governor Nc
Connell explaining the situation.

For the past two weeks we nave
been favored with a change IN the
weather and as consequence Ratn-
drum has been overrun with hobos OF
the worst type. They would peg
meals and also money, and their ora-
zen manner proved they were not
nOvices in the business. When money
was secured it was spent for LIQUOR
and the result was an occasional
drunken hobo on streets. one OF
these, giving the name Of Charles
Brennan, was arrested Monday evening
for committing several petty tnelts
around town in broad day light, anu
is now languishing in the county
bastile on charge of larceny. Inere
may be some worthy men among
these "knights of the road" wnom
adversity, due to the hard times, mas
driven to take the road, but expert
ence has proven that such are aoou1
as scarce as hens teeth. Inc ma
jority deserve to be tried in kanga-
roo court.

That Campaign or Education.

The NEWS has no desire to bewilder its
readers, but as an independent paper 1t,
as requested by many oil its readers, In
tends TO give from time to time the views
OF Others than the party the editor him
self thinks Just now is, for the greatest
good of thu greatest number, the one to
vote and work for, and trusts that after
reading the various sides the majority oil
it's readers will themselves sort the wheat
from the chsff and cast their vote in No
yember for Mckinley and Hobart.
In accordance with the above, We today
commence to publish Governor Altgeld's
reply TO Schurz and Cochran. We have
also arranged with the leaders OF the
gold wing OF the democratic party to
publish some of their views and as many
of our readers are prohibitionists we will
also, "a requested, give them a show by
publishing the statements issued by Their
national committee or the leaders OF the
party.
Last year we offered the chairmen OF
the different county committees space to
mir their views, but the prohibition party
was the only one to accept the offer, and
In consequence IA few Of the wise men, not
ui the east, but Of Houghton, thought
pr"p.r To go around and call ours that
prohibition sheet" There is no disgrace
in beng prohibltionlst, but al we have
no derire TO sail under false colors we
have this year changed our cour- e and in
order to supply all our readers with
ample -ubi Ct for thought will publish,
~ ated, the views OF the different polit-
TEA parties, but, of course, do not hold
Ourselves r. ~" nsible for the statements
made 10y ihem.

tor In place OF Mr.. Joseph NJ. Cox, re-
signed. The annual report OF the Breeze
iron mine, which was issued this week,
showed no cash in the treasury aud said
that the company had leased some oil It's
claims on a royalty basis.
Reports Of the purchase oil the balance
of toe Anaconda stock by the Rothchilds
are circulating, but it is stated that the
transfer has not been made as yet. A
conference is to be held in New York in
few DAYS, however, and il is expected
that the Rothchilds' agent will buy the
remaining shares (the Rothchilds already
OWE nearly one-halD and it Is sand that
the deal will include the purchase oil the
entire capital of the Homestake gold
mine which is one Of the greatest gold
producing mines in the world.
The copper market has been dull, but
prices have held firm in spite Of the slack
trade conditions. Lake ingot remains
at 10Y cent?, although it il reported that
the Calumet has sold block OF the metal
tor export at slightly better than 10y
cents. The total exports for the month
of September from New York, Baltimore
and Newport News loot up 10,SS0 tons
fine, making the total exports for the
first nine months of 1895 an increase oil
40,2l5 tons or 80 per cent. With so
much Of the domestic production going
abroad, il is evident that the home con-
sumption must be very low at present.
Ii also is evident that quotations for the
metal must appreciate when the home
consumption quickens as it will on
revival in business which isexpected after
the election. Commercial reports already
show better feeling among business
men and with an easier money market
trade in mercantile lines will improve in
no small degree when the people express
py their votes next month their deter
mination to maintain the gold standard
and reject the proposition OF the demo
cratic party to adopt cheap money with
all it's consequential evils. EVERETT.
