r. j. Collins, advance agent for the
Slayton Jubilee Singers, af the Stay
ton Lyceum Bureau, Chicago, was in
the city last week trying to make
date for his company, but failing to
make date at Benson he had to let

company, and our city misses a good

The date has been fixed for April
18th when this city will have an extra
ordinary treat in the musical line, as
that is the date when Edouard Rem
enyi, the worlds famous violinist will
be at the Morris opera house. About
once in a dozen years town of this
size has an opportunity to see a good
thing and this is one of them. There
is one notable thing about the people
of Morris, and that is they are not
slow in approaching a good thing
when they have the opportunity.
Remenyi was here before and the
hall was packed, and we venture to
say that an addition will have to be
built to the opera house in order to
accommodate them all this time.

HFLFRICH'S BoNDSMEN.

The Commissioners have been in
session since Saturday morning and
the most of their time has cen
taken up with the late assessors
shortage and his bondsmen. 1t now
transpires that Joe Helfrich owes
the county $4,569,S3, and number
OF his bondsmen have already paid
in their proportion 1t is thought
the whole sum will be paid in and
a successor appointed before the
adjournment of the board this after
noon. j. M. Johnson, who was the
first choice of the bondsmen for the
position, withdrew his name and the
bondsmen then unanimously re-
commended to the Commissioners
the appointment of John H. Brady
as Assessor and Collector of Gilmore
county, to succeed j. D. Helfrich,
and it is the general opinion that
their wishes will be gratifed.
AT meeting of the bondsmen of
J. D. Helfrich, held Monday even
ing, March 2, 1896, the following
resolutions were passed:
Resolved, That J. NJ. Johnson did
not commit an overt act or any rad
ical wrong, in our opinion. in the
transaction with L. l.. Ormsby in
assessment of Mr. Ormsby's sheep.
Carried unanimously.
Resolved, That j, NJ. Johnson be
given a vote of thanks for his I'M
firing efforts as chairman of this
committee of bondsmen, and that
we accept his withdrawal with a
spirit of reluctance as our candidate
for appointment as Assessor, believ-
ing in his integrity and honesty in
his relations with l.. l.. Ormsby and
Assessor J. d. Helfrich. Carried
unanimously.
Attest: F. J. SHIELDS, Sec'y.
Following are the names of the
bondsmen and the amounts each
one is required to paw:

Our highly esteemed neighbor af-
fects great surprise at the fact that
the BULLETIN did not reply to his
defense of his masters. Reply to
what? Did your misrepresentation
and abuse change the aspect of af
fairs, or did you prove that the com
missioners even suspected Joe Hell
frich of wrong-doing when they re-
fused to allow him pay for last
years services2 Not muchl 1t is
true that the bondsmen will now
save about $4,000 by their action,
but where does a saving to Gilmore
county come in? The BULLETIN of
Feb. 10, offended the organ" by
saying:
"At their January term the Com
missioners refused to allow Mr. Hell
frich one dime for his official serv-
ices during 1895, for very frivolous
reasons. This unjust act of the
Commissioners probably rendered
Joe Helfrich desperate and caused
him to flee the country, which he
should not have done, for the Unjust
ice Of the Commissioners toward
him had created so much sympathy
in his favor that had he made known
the condition of his affairs with the
county to his friends, he would UNI
doubtedly have received the re-
quired assistance and all would
have been we'll"
The "organ" ignores the word
probably" in the above and claims
that we made a direct assertion,
and wonders that we did not reply.

loudest"-and the BULLETIN is not
sufficiently large to devote space to
refuting every lying assertion made
by the great and good duck from

without delay move on to Washing
ton. You will have all the men,
bers assemble in their armorv at
Glenn's Ferry on the 35th day of
this month. Then we will proceed
up Snake river SO far as it is navi-
gable for gun-boats; then we will
embark and go across the coun-
try on foot to Washington City,
the capital of the United State of
England; There we will, without
delay, hang John Sherman, Carlisle
and Grover Cleveland. | expect
we would have some trouble in
hanging Grover for his neck is SO
big the moose might slip off over his
head; but we might persuade him
to go fishing, where he would be
liable to fall in and drown himself
But, alas, expect the Supreme
Court Of the United States would
then declare his death unconstitu-
tional, unless we could raise money
enough to buy an adverse desision,
which | think we could easily do
for if this august body would sell
themselves on as big thing as the
income tax surely they would not
kick about so small a thing as
Grover Cleveland.

IMPORTANT LAND RULING.
The Desert Contest Between two of
Mountain Homes Citizens.

The Desert Contest Between two of
Mountain Homes Citizens.
At Washington, the Secretary of
the Interior has, as we announced
in last weeks BULLETIN, affirmed
the decision Of the commissioner of
the general land office in the case
Of Carter w. Burns VS.. Albert w.
More, desert land contest involv-
ing the northeast quarter of section
%, township 3 south, range 6 east,
in the Boise land office district.
More made desert land entry No.
1880 of said tract, which contains
so acres, Nov. II, 1891 Burns
filed his affidavit of contest April
IL, 1898, alleging that More had not
expended $50 on the tract, as re-
quired by law. The local officers
found that the contestant had failed
to prove his allegations and recon-
mended that the contest be dis
missed The commissioner affirmed
this recommendation Aug. l, 1894,
and Burns appealed.
1T appears" says Secretary Hoke
Smith, in his decision, that More
first held the land under timber
culture entry. He broke and cul-
tivated land, built fences and dug
bitches to carry water from neigh
boring creek to irrigate his trees,
and made other improvements adj
apted as we'll for the reclamation of
desert land as for the cultivation of
timber. He estimated the value of
said work at 1850. 1t was certainly
worth more than 800. Nov. 10,
1891, he made his~desert entry, and
made his first years proof before
before the clerk Of the probate court
of Gilmore county, Idaho, Oct. %,
1892, who advised him that he was
entitled to be credited, as part Of
] the first years expenditure under
the desert land law, with the i'm
provements which he had made un.
der the timber culture law. The
only additional improvement made
by More was that he induced the
Gilmore Irrigating Company to con
struct its canal across his land
giving the company right of way
in exchange for permission to OBJ
tain water from the canal for irri
cation The testimony shows clearly
that More has acted in good faith.
Commissioner Lamoreaux helc
that "the amount expended by thu
entryman in improving the lane
prior to the date of the desert lanC
entry will inure to his benefit undo
E his entry, as those improvement
are of the character required unde
: the desert land laws" and refer
ferred as authority to the depart
mental decision in the case of Davi
vs.. Monger, 10 L, D. 304. The a
firmation of this by Secretary Smit
fixes an important ruling SO far 8
desert land entries are concerned.
