Indian Crimes and Criminals.

An Indian hOld-up occurred on the
reservation last week. John Levi and
Noah Betiell who had been In the city
were confronted in Soldiers Canyon by
William Jonas and another Indian,
in masks. The order to stand and
deliver came IN true highwayman
style. 1t is contrary to Indian nature,
however, to stand and deliver.
Instead, Levi drew big knife and ad-
vanced upon the masked robbers
After few cuts which left indelible
marks on Jonas that led later to his
identity and arrest, the holdups took
TO their heels. Jones was held by
Justice Briggs to the district court.
John Levi the noted Indian who
keeps gambling house on the reserva-
tor, locally known as Lewis He'll,
was arrested Saturday for robbery by
Deputy Marshal Mounce. This Ne2
Perce tough and all accomplice by the
name of Noah Bedeli garroted an old
drunken Indian and relieved him ol
$27O IN gold coin. The money was In
a belt around the old mans waist
1t was torn from his person and all tho
money taken except one 20 dollar gold
piece which caught in the lining o
the belt and escaped the notice of Tho
robbers In their haste. Noah Bedel
was not found till Monday when III
too was arrested. Bail was fixed b..
Judge Poe at $1,000 each for the ap
pearance of the accused before the u
$. Grand Jury next May.

"Attention Taxpayers"

Let us stick close to the vital points
of this controversy. The Tribune, like
a cuttle-fish in corner, seeks to escape
the issue by clouding the waters with
sophomore verbiage.
The present county commissioners
were elected upon Il platform which
promised the Taxpayers "retrenchment
and REFORM" Once elected they use
the prerogatives of their high Office to
bolster up the falling fortunes of the
political organ that favored their elec.
| tiOn. The TELLER contends that
when elected to the responsible office
they hold the commissioners should
rise above party politics and give to
the taxpayers an administration fully
in accord with campaign promises.
Their retrenchment and reform should
not be limited bv party ines, nor used
to reward partisan followers. The
question is, not whether the TELLER
got the contract, or the Tribune got
the contract, aud there is no point of
issue even over the action of Mr.. Tar
nahill or Mr.. Wing. If they feel
under Obligations to the Tribune for
favors in the past or hopes for the
future why advertise il to the public!
The point in controversy is the inter-
est of the taxpayers III the retrench-
ment Of tins county administration.
Before this reform board took charge
of county affairs, the old board thought
it owed to the taxpayers a duty tt
comply with the law and call tor bids
an awurd the contract to the lOwes
bidder. Under this ruling the TELLER
got the contrac. through the two pre-
cedine administrations, and the fact
still remains that had the present bid
been accepted the taxpayers woult
have been saved fifty per cent. OF tn
expense incurred by the present con
tract. The Tribune seeks to maxi
capital GU, of the fact that 1t has {
twice-a-wcek issue and will publisl
the proce edings five times. In othe
words the publication will be dea'
matter four times as lorg and will cos
the taxpayer twice rs much as it di'
before this reform party came int
power. Under the present contrac
the first issue is free but subsequen
issues cost the cou nty three-fourths G
a cent per line. When the taxpaye
calculates that the pre- sent publicatio
is costing nearly 500, he will not b
verv enthusiastic about having to rea
it five times. So much for retrenct
ment and reform that rolls SO tril
pingly on the tongue, but fails
Il utterly in practice.
Il 1t is hardly becoming in the TELLE
to be SO hypercritical as to stop IL
budding genius of the Tribune and II
| / following is offered in the kinde
Il spirit. In studying correct Englis
| the classic utterarces OF Shakespea
make profitable reading. 1t mat
| even our Office boy smile to note th
so ,.ungent an epigram as "There
| something rotten In Denmark, ," shou

Senator Heitfeld.

As was | redicted by our Boise cores
pondent last week the senatorial dead
lock was broken by the election of
Henry Heitfeld. The dark horse so
long expected proves to be our worthy
state senator. He Ows his election to a
combination of circumstances us unex-
pecte0 and unlookedfor to him as TO
his neighbors here ut home. When
the final break came in the Elaggett
forces, the Grey Eagle threw his
strength to his faithful lieutenant,
Senator Heitfeld. rhe democrats
found less objection to Mr.. Heitfeld
than TO other aspirants because of his
democratic antecedents, and the lone
republican desiring to retire the chief
of the boilers, cast the deciding vote
in favor OF Mr.. Heitteld.
No one doubts the integrity honesty
or uprightnes Of Senator Heitteld. He
Is conser vative and far less objection
able than many of the radica! reform
ers Of his party who were aspirants fol
the Office. Senator Heitfeld is repre-
sentative of his party rather than
leader. His experience In public lif'
limited and he makes no pretention
in the line Of brilliant statesman
ship. He will probably act will
the democrats along conservative line
and will serve his constituents faith
fully as far as his influence will reacl
in the coming administration

FEMININE FANciEs.
Dressy Trifes That Are Now Popular
with the Ladies.


The new shade in gloves are pearl,
champagne, gray, mushroom, and tan,
and very light tints OF those colors are
worn in the evening.
Repped fabrics in mixture OF SIX
and wool are among the latest importa-
lions of dress goods, and new material,
called poll de chevre, which is very
smooth and glossy, is being made up
into dressy gowns.
Violets reigned supreme for corsage
bouquets at the horse show, and huge
punches of these modest little bios
SONS were fastened on many hand
some gown. There is fragrance and a
subtle refinement about violets which
no other flower possesses, and they are
worn in the afternoon and evening with
equally good taste.
One of the most luxurious long cloaks
vet shown is of dark green velvet, coming
TO the feet, and with the full sleeves
not vet renowned for outdoor wear.
1t has a deep, fancifully shaped yoke of
delicate green-white satin EN-
broidered with jet and edged with err
mine. The same fantastic design runs
down the front and finishes the sleeve
cuffs. The standing COLLAR flares and =
filed in about the throat with lace and
ermine.
Velvet sleeve puffs with corselet or
/ high ceinture TO match are worn with
gowns of plain cloth, and fancy plaid
and striped silk and wool materials are
used for the same purpose. Short fan
ciful jackets that do not conceal the
tapering waist. similar to the Eton,
bolero, and Breton shapes, are on many
new gowns, some of which are slashed
al the back 10 admit the bows or
rosettes of a wide sash that finishes the
girdle of velvet or folded satin.
4 Beaded and embroidered trimmings
/ in shades of light blue, pink, mauve'
gold, and green are in greater variety
than ever, and appear in various de
! grees of elegance and extravaganza IN
evening, afternoon, and morning gowns.
/ One of the recent REVEALS is the bugle
| bead, which comes in every color, and is
/ a very effective element of the new trim

THE VALUE OF RUBBING.
An old-Time Remedy for Various All
ments.

An Old-Dime Remedy Tor various All
ments.
The old-time remedy, a thorough rub
hing. is now a fashionable one under
many names, massage being the usual
one. A good rubbing is the best rem
edy for the tired body; but that rubbing
must be given evenly and quietly and
the patient must not be allowed 60
talk. To the WORKOUT girl who can
not sleep few pennies are well spent
when this mode of gaining rest is
chosen in preference to opiates. The
arms, the back, under the knees and tho
forehead should all have even rubbing,
made smoother by the hands of the
rubber having a little cocoa butter OF
vaseline upon them. If one is fortunate
enough TO be with ones own people
then a sister, or. better still, the mother
will be the masseuse. In addition &c
giving one a good rest rubbing tends
TO develop the body and to make it more
supple. The rubber is advised to cult
waite a very even, impressive movement
but while it suggests strength it must
not be rough. else sleep or rest will
never come. and excitement be the
only result
When the head and eyes are tired
systematic smoothing OF the hair
which, of course, must be loosened and
have all its pins taken out, is great
relief. The eyes may be rested 10y be

gently dabbled with an old handker-

A Home REMEDY
For the Cure of Colds and
La Grippe.

La grippe and influenza, cold in the head or ON
the lungs are not only distressing maladies,
but are very dangerous as well. Cold on the
chest is an inflammation affecting the air pas
sages and vessels leading into and through ev-
cry portion of the lungs. The inflammation
may be so violent as TO cause death in a short
time If not quickly reduced, or it may linger
and drag as bad cold of more or less severity.
What is true of cold is equally true OF la
grippe. Even mild condition is liable to turn
quickly into acute pneumonia, or what is
worse, galloping consumption. The breath :
ing tubes become so sensitive that the least
exposure, the ightest draught, change OF
clothing, or of the weather. is sufficient to
cause fresh cold, terrible cough, pain and
fever. Cough is the foremost symptom, and II
may be harsh and dry, or loose and broken
with much eXpeet0ration. 1t IS always annoy
ing keeping up a constant irritation and ex-
citement in the sore and intiamed tubes. There
is pain and tenderness under the breastbOne-
sometimes of a raw and tearing nature
HOarseness huskiness, whispering or loss OF
voice, chilly sensations. sore throat, aching
Joints and catarrh of the head. As the dis
ease advances there are night sweats, hectic
fever loss of flesh, splitting OF blood or hem
orrhage. and the patient has the appearance
and symptoms of consumption. The old way
of treating cold IS too well known TO need
any explanation here; the new wsy-the better
is with Lightning Cough Drops. This
remedy is especially valuable in colds, Ia
grippe, Influenza, coughs. hoarseness, etc. In
deed, for Ia grippe and influenza it may truly
be said 60 be a specific. while for breaking 3
