on Fulton street and Hoyt street when
he heard a door slam. Looking along
Hoyt street he saw two men coming out
of side door in the rear of Burts
shoe store. He called to them to halt
Instead of doing so they started on a
run towards Livingston street. Arriv-
ing there, one of the thieves drew a
pistol and fired at the policeman. The
latter in turn fired one shot. Running
along Livingston street, which is a
long block, the men finally reached
Smith street and separated. Carroll
followed Lynch. He was close upon
him when the pursued man again turn
ed, and, drawing his revolver, fired.
For the second time the bullet went
wide of it's mark. Both men continued
running, and again the fugitive took
aim with his pistol. Carroll felt the
swish of the bullet past his ear. An
other shot followed from CARROTS re-
volver. In this way the men kept run
ming until State and Smith street were
reached, Lynch disappeared. Carroll
waited, and after search found Lynch
hiding in the doorway of a saloon

will connect with the Northern Pacific
aud Great Northern main lines. Elk.
tending from Weiser south, the line
enters Oregon, and passing through
the great cattle region OF Eastern
Oregon - four hundred and fifty
miles, or less-would reach Sacra-
mento and the California business.
Ample surveys show that this can
he done and not cross n mountain
range, and the maximum elevation
would be somewhere in the vicinity
OF Harvey Lake, Oregon. So with
all these advantages, it is more than
strange that the appropriation OF this
natural highway should have so long
been neglected, and it is also fully in
keeping with past records that a.
soon ~ active steps are taken to
finally occupy the territory by one
party that the hitherto neglected fac
tor becomes at once bone OF con-
tention. "The stone that the build
ers rejected becomes the headstone
OF the corner" Incidentally, Weiser
will receive great benefit, but the
great good will be manifest by all
this part OF Idaho and will inaugurate
an era OF actual prosperity in place
OF the theoretical possibilities of the
past, and it will be common to all.
Time at last makes all things even.
1t is now evident, that in spite OF
scheming backcappers and plausible
swindlers, Washington county and
the adjacent territory will soon stand
before the country in correct light
and its resources developed. The
copper mines are now producing, a
smelter is already on the ground, and
IN proper hands will demonstrate the
need OF greater facilities, for the
held is unlimited. Gold properties
are being opened and much new
machinery has gone into the county
this season, and it is only the begin
ming. The grand developments Of
the near future will in some degree
recompense for the weary years Of
waiting.
