ignorant About Idaho.

M. ]. Walter, editor Of Fremont
County News, has recently returned
to st. Anthony from a visit to his
old home in Pennsylvania. He
gives his impressions of the trip as
follows:
During trip east were surprised 10 learn how
little the Eastern poopls know about Idaho aud its
great and numerous resources Many think that
Idaho IS only days Journey from Klondike. They
can hardly believe that the weather ever gets warm
enough in this State to raise crop OF any kind, and
are doubtful when Informed that raise the largest
and best crops Of wheat per Of any State in tho
Union. They have an idea that our people live al.
most entirely upoa the product Of mineral that Is OBJ
tained in small quantities by digging through deep
snow into the mountains. and they never even sus-
pect that we have great fertile valleys In which all
Kinds Of fruit, grain and hay grow 10 abundance
OF interest to the Idaho farmer. There they have
small farms ranging from 40 TO 100 acres, many OF
move about without rolling In q south ry direction
They must pick stone and use expensive fertilizers
before they can raise crop at all, and then their
harvest is redieulously small compared with the
Idaho farmer who counts his wheat not by the single
bushel but by the hundreds and thousands.
The time is ripe that Idaho should let herself be
known. People who are airectly interested In the
welfare OF our state should work together for the
purpose of informing the outside world thoroughly
and truhfuly of the great possibilities that still
await be achieved In Idaho by the hand and brain
of man. There are thousands OF good industrious
men who would I'LL up valleys and convert the
countless Of unimproved land into beautiful
homes, thereby enrching themselves, the State and
the Union, If they only knew that such opportunities
exist. Many families who have by long and hard
work accumulated small capital in the east would
move to Idaho in short order II they knew how chcep
lands be bought and what II will prodrce Il
they knew about our beautiful and healthy climate,
etc. The east has large surplus Of sturdy young
farmers who anxious TO leave home and start
up for themselves-they woold change the large
Of sagebrush into beautiful grain fields and
orchards il they only had the proper encouragement
Idahos land will, no doubt, all be cultivated some
time but that will be for future generations to
Witness unless citizens push their State forward

A Good Record.

Congressman James Gum returns
TO Idaho with the respect and WELL
wishes OF the people regardless Of
politics. What record he had the
opportunity Of making in congress is
all in his favor. He always voted
right and did all tn hts power TO adj
vance the interests of the common
wealth and the individual members
thereof when possible for him TO do so.
And after having most creditably per
formed his duty as congressman he
then turned his attention TO doing
something in his progressive way to
direct the attention of capital and
home seekers TO the wonderful re-
sources of Idaho, and judging from the
accounts of his work found in the dis
patches he has accomplished much.
While east he travelled about and
whenever he could never failed to tell
of the unsurpassed climate, soil and
developed and undeveloped mineral
belts of this country. He attended
the home-seekers' convention in Chi
cago and made an earnest and char
acteristic speech, and recognizing his
ability and honest worth the delegates
elected him president. Among other
things, and probably the most impor-
tant, done by him was the organizing
of wealthy company to buy and de-
velop some OF our mines and mining
prospects, and will shortly visit and
examine properties to which his at
tention may be called. He says that
the stream of emigration pouring into
the southern states has been suddenly
stopped by the yellow fever, and that
concerted action could turn the home.

Conner From Green Water.

One Of the most interesting sights in
the great mining town of Butte is the
process by which copper is caught from
the emerald colored water that flows
from the Anaconda and st. Lawrence
mines. 1t is estimated that this water,
which for four or five years went to
waste, is now bringing the Anaconda
company $4,000 month at cost OF
about 81, 600 month.
At the present time several acres of
ground are covered with wooden watts.
These are filled with all the old scrap
iron they can hold. 1t has proved splen-
did scheme for disposing of the tons and
tons of old iron the company has accu-
INFLATED for years. Old hosting cages,
water pipe, wheelbarrows, railroad iron
in fact, any old thing that consists OF
tin or iron-is appropriated to this serv-
ice.
1t is said for every pound of iron put
into vat a pound Of copper is produced.
Where the water first attacks the iron.
the copper absorbs the iron completely
within three weeks. After the precipi.
tation is effected the water is drawn OIL
and the Shiny copper is transferred to
another tank, where the water is further
drained off, These latter watts hold
about 10 tons Of the copper, which now
has the appearance Of clayish sub.
stance. This is sacked into packages OF
about 100 pounds. When in this shape.
it is sent to the smelters in this city.
The product carries an average OF 81
per cent pure copper. The iron remain
ing in it makes fine flux, and when
mixed with other smelling ore it is
said to bring the ore up to value OF
about $500 ton.
The water from the mines is the most
profitable product of the Anaconda Cop

A Palmer Who Owned johannesburg.

Few people are aware OF the fact that
the site of johannesburg and large
tract of the surrounding land were once
bought for $3.50. But such was the case,
and the purchaser now lies a confirmed
invalid in the workhouse infirmary at
Guildford. The old man seems to have
had most remarkable career, having
been in the service Of the old East India
company, fought in the Crimea. being
seriously wounded at the siege Of Sevas-
topol, and afterward passed through the
Indian mutiny. He then went to South
Africa, where he fought against the
Zulus and the Beers. Before the Trans
vaal was made over to the Beers he pur-
chased for $3.50 some $4,000 acres OF
land near the source Of the Crocodile,
better known as the Limpopo, where he
made up his mind ultimately to settle.
But war broke out, and he took up arms
against the Beers and formed one OF the
party which held Pretoria. In 1880,
when the republic was declared, he re-
fused to accept service under President
Kruger, the result being that his land,
now estimated to be worth many mil
lions sterling, was forfeited.

PEARLS FOUND IN SCOTIA.
One From Aberdeenshire Said to Form
One of the Queens Jewels.

One From Aberdeenshire Said to Form
One of the Queens Jewels.
One is so much accustomed to associ-
ate pearls with the eastern and gold
with the southwestern countries of the
world that the discovery Of pearls in
Scotland and gold in Wales seems some
what opposed to the order of things.
That gold exists in Wales is of course
quite recent discovery, and the small
and Improbable quantities found have
now resulted in the abandonment of the
mining operations commenced by Rich
ard Morgan.
But the pearls of Scotland have quite
q different history. For centuries pearls
have been found in the river Ythan, in
Aberdeenshire, and only last year an
Aberdeen man made some notable hauls,
which he disposed Of to jewelers. of the
northern towns. 1t was recently stated
in London paper that pearl taken
from the river Ythan is believed to
form one of the QUEEN crown jewels.
1t is to be hoped that the belief is we'll
| founded, for in that case it may be
reasonably claimed that the precious
stone in question is the only one con-
tributed by the British islands, a
thought calculated to crafty our ma
tional pride, for Scotland might be
worse represented than by pearl in
the national regalia.
| A story is told of an Aberdeenshire
farmer who found q very large and
perfect pearl in the shell Of a mussel
taken from the Ythan. Happening to
visit London some time afterward, he
displayed his treasure TO west end
| jeweler, who, struck with the size and
beauty Of the gem, asked the price. The
farmer demanded what possibly he re-
garded as big price-viz. el00. Now
this was in the days when Scotland had
her own coinage, and a pound (Scots
was equivalent TO Is. 3d., SO that the
e100 he asked would only have repre-
sented eS 6s. Sd. English money.
His surprise and delight may be i'm
agined, therefore, when he received
for his pearl e100. 1t is doubtful
however, whether the English jewelel
would have shared these feelings had he
known the exact meaning of the "hun
ner pun" demanded by the owner q
the pearl. However, he had no occasion
to complain, for he is said to have sole
the gem subsequently at large profit

Appreciation.

An anecdote, illustrating the urbanity
of DIR. Max Nordau's character, as we'll
as his keen sense of humor, is told III
connection with story of !. Zangwill.
DIR. Nordau had never met Zangwill,
but was great admirer OF 1.-The Chill
dren of the Ghetto" and its authors lit
erary causeries. One day friend, know
ing this, came to him and said:
"Mr. Zangwill has been writing about
Won in The Pail Mall.
Indeed, said DIR. Nordau, with an
air of great interest.
"He gives a perfect appreciation OF
you," the friend continued.
"Do tell me what he said," said the
author, relaxing into an attitude OF
pleasurable anticipation.
"He says you're an idiot. j..
The funny part of the story is that
during a recent visit to England Dr.
Nordau met Mr.. Zangwill and told him
the incident.

One of the Crying Evils of the Day.

We are living in an age in which old
beliefs have been much unsettled. A
large proportion Of our new generation
have never received, either at school or
at home, adequate instruction in the ell
ements Of morality, and particularly in
the necessity Of restraining the inclina-
ton Of our common nature to satisfy its
greeds irrespective Of the rights of 9TH
ers. Dishonesty in various forms is
one of the crying evils of the day
