There dlas been such a stir such a chatter and clapnor with mankind gen. orally, and with very conservative, clinging, ivy-like womankind, about the tendencies of the nsiw woman that 1t is very agreeable to have the thought and attention of the world directed i1Ito an- other channel.
 It is the fashion with very gentle women. to hold up their 1lanGs, figura- lively speaking, in evaporation and dis gust at every effort of independent wo- man to reach the goal of an honorable ambition.
 They write 1lomiles by the yard about the rightful sphere of woman, these same much-exercised feminine models do, and quote anticipated axioms, out of-date couplets and the sayings of St. Paul to prove that their position is a correct one, and the other women are all wrong, sadly wrong These battlers fer the conditions of the last century grow eloquent about the "beaut.ful chivalry of tine past" and intimate that any evil  dence of brains and energy on the Tart of the prtsent-day woman is likely to destroy al semblance of that trait in southern men, of which poets have sung and .essayists have written.
 Tine more utteihy helpless a woman is the more liable she is to have the ''rest cure" prescribed for her by tha weary family physician who has struggled for years with her various aches and pains; the more she has worn ller exhausted husbands patience threadbare with her hypochrondriac symptoms, the more apt is she to talk about the 'sleyely environ ment elf home" the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world" and every other truisms that no good womam de- nies. These oracles fret the air with their iterations and rsiterations, while the either women are busy with thoSe things which Providence has given them 10 do. They sermonize oil modern de- generacy, while the active woman manages to brighten their homes with great floods of sunshine, and to love and minister to their husbands and children just as faithfully as that other

Dtnina Prospects.

Jacob Sport, our townsman, has
returned from Cache valley, where
for few weeks he was attending
to his mining claims, east of Logan
city. Last year, after running a
blind tunnel Of 45 feet, he met a
10 inch streak of pay-ore, and this
year, after few feet more tunnel
ing, the streak assays $500 more
and the vein has widened out to
3 feet.
Some wide awake prospectOrs in
Cache valley have during spring
and summer located close to Sports
claims and have already ore worth
1890. Next year year they and
Sport with his Logan partners, will
build a wagon road to the locations
and Logan will have a paying
mine. 1t may not be Klondyke,
but will furnish work for a few
teamsters, and be source of in
come for steady labor.
But although Logan, in due
time, will have a great mining
camp, and Paris now feels a little
dizzy, Sport says, he has reasons
to believe, that Montpelier will be,
IN not many years, a Denver No. 2.
He seems to know every hill
and ridge between Franklin and
Cokeville, and great is the mineral
wealth yet hidden in those noun
tains. But he does not believe in
booming nor in unwarranted spec
ulatiohs, lfeither in trumping to-
gether shareholders and companies.

When any special make of goods
commend themselves to the public
by their wearing qualities, it is
only natural that the merchant

so. This is the case with the

his Geological Report, says: "The
history of mining is a history OF
failures" and advises every pros
pector to first study mineralogy,
geology and palaeontology. Sport
is positive, by recent D ,oofs, that
science will and must make of the
future mining a history of sue
Icesses. He also thinks it would be
p good idea if young men, instead
'ot loaing around and killing time,
would locate claims and work at
least the assessments, so as to hold
the ground to await developments.

In these cases Judge Stewart de-

taken by the state carried interest

the supreme court recently de-

three lady delegates and two child

Three other delegates, two min
listers and an elder travelled two
days in wagons, while another
minister and his wife and daugh.
ter drove forty miles, yet all of
these were in jolly good courage on
their arrival.
Mrs. R. P. Boyd welcomed the
delegates in a cordial address, cal
eulated to win greater love and
interest for the infant society. The

APPALLING.

In another column of to-day's
EXAMINER will be found a list of
the tax levy as made in part of the
counties of Idaho. We have been
unable to get full list, but enough
IS shown to give our readers an
idea of what people have to pay in
other parts of the state in the way
of taxes. 1t will be seen that
Canyon and Bear Lake are the
lowest iii the list, and 10 doubt the
lowest in the state. There are
many others, however, that are re-
marKably high, one county levy
: ing the enormous amount of rs
mills on the dollar. We know fall
we'll that these figures do not pre-
sent an attractive advertisement
for those portions named in the
list, but, nevertheless, the "condi-
ton and not theory" causes
notice to be taken of them.
81 khile it is true that property
q: lpn ere placed very low, it
also tree soutside do
not ku6Wsthat 6ll i the case,
hence they afe8o ito come to
this state for the purpose of invest
ing in property Of any kind ard
making homes with us. 1t would
seem, therefore, that before Idaho
can hope for large influx Of peo-
pie with means, and that's the
only kind the state wants, some
methods will have TO be adopted
by the officials of the counties to
lower the tax levy. To this end,
every possible expense ought to
be cut off and the counties run
on business basis. Everything
in the way of property has depre-
ciated in the last few years and in
dividuals have cut expenses ac-
cordingly; but with the counties it
has been different. Taxes are as
high and some cases higher, than
they were lew years ago, and for
the most part the expense of main
tanning the county government is
equally as great. In fact, every
thing has been cut down except
the public expenditure. That goes
merrily on.
Unless a halt is called some
where, Idaho will have very little
increase either in population or
property to show for its first ten
years of statehood.
Some radical changes for the
better must be made, or the 1gem
of the mountains" will be poor
drawing card.

Sill On.

The Diamondville strike is still
on with no prospects OF it being
settled right away. We under.
stand the miners were offered work
at the old rate, but they refused to
accept it. In the meantime the
Short Line, 0. r. n, and Ana
conda are getting coal at Rock
Springs, something like 100 cars
being hauled over this road daily
for these companies. It strikes US
that the Diamondville company
are losing a great deal by allowing
this strike to continue when, from
present informatlan, it couLl be
settled very easily by allowing the
small demands asked for by the
