We will leave it for our readers to
decide whether Judge Lynch in Louis
lana, or Judge Lynch holding court
among the Nez Perce Indians, is the
more civilized. In Louisiana victim
is shot, hanged or burned without the
formality of trial in the civil courts.
The following from the Moscow Mirror
shows that the Indians let a man have
a trial in the civil courts hrst:
Some few days ago, John Levy, a
renegade Nez Perce, was arrested at
Lewiston on the charge of robbery, it
being alleged that he had robbed a
number of Indians of cash received
fronm the government. His trial took
place at Lewiston, Wednesday, and
through the efforts of mis- attorneys, j..
w. Reid and John Green he was ac-
quilted, but the Indians Wednesday
night convicted him with a dose of cold
lead. wednesday evening Levy start
ed for the reservation but Thursday
morning his body was found several
miles out of Lewiston laying beside
the road with number of bullet holes
through it. 1t is supposed that the
Indians he had robbed followed him
out of town and killed him.

Tally one for the persistence of Nr.
T. F. Bates, the promoter of the Weiser
and Seven Devils proposed railroad.
Mr.. Bates has stuck to this proposition
for several years; has been laughed at
many times for his confidence that he
would secure capital to construct the
road; has had warm friends lose their
confidence in his ability to get the en-
terprise started and has often been in
situations which would have caused al
most any other man to give up. But
it now looks as if his persistency was
going to win and that bonds had been
foated for its construction. An eas :
ern contractor is now looking over the
proposed route for the purpose of un-
dertaking the entire construction and

The New Senator.

The following from the Idaho Falls
Times is the most sensible and philo-
sophical view we have seen taken by
any paper in Idaho on the result OF
the late senatorial contest:
Comments of many of the newspa-
pers OF the state and nation will not be
pleasant reading for Hon. Henry Heit-
field, the new senator elect for Idaho.
Yet he is in position to read them
with equanimity and will probably not
take their utterance much to heart.
Mr.. Heitfeld did not seek to become
senator and there is no evidence what
ever that his thoughts were invaded by
so disturbing an idea three days before
his election.
His is a case, par excellence, where
the Office sought the man and is the
more remarkable as standing quite
alone in the annals of senatorial cleo
tions. Doubtless the senator-elect does
not assume to have been entitled above
all others of his party to this position,
but if he has resolution coupled with
honesty and fair ability, which he is
known to possess, he will yet make his
mark in the senate and perhaps con-
vince the doubters of the state in good
time that his election was not mis-
take.
Certain it isthat he comes directly
from the body of the people with
memory of their struggles fresh and
untainted by contact with the conven-
tionalities of the modern United States
Senate. 1t is to be hoped that his
course there will be signalized by an
ingenuosness which will be refreshing
in body where diplomacy and tact
have perverted truth and candor.
The Times offers all the encourage.
meut it can to our new Senator and
hopes the people of the state will give
him that cordial support he is entitled
to. This done we have no fears for
his record.

A little item appeared in the Payette
Independent, short time since, stat
ing that Mr.. Arthur Pence, of Bruneau
Valley, had been at New Plymouth
taking items in that flcurishing colony
in contemplation of starting a colony
on the Bruneau.
But few people are as yet aware of
the beauties and advantages of that
wonderful Rruneau Valley as a home
for progressive agriculturists and hor-
ticulturists. Mr. Arthur Pence resides
at the head OF that valley, on the ranch
on which are the famous Bruneau Hot
Springs, and adjoining him are the
homes of the numerous Robinson fam
lily; and their ranches combined cover
one of the most beautiful and produc-
tive sections to be found anywhere in
America. We predict that the day is
not far distant when this happily stu
ated locality will be famous for its
beautiful homes. We understand that
Mr.. Pence has made arrangements
with other owners of properties there
with the view OF cutting up these hold
ings into small farms and of endeavor-
ing to form a colony somewhat on the
plan of that at New Plymouth or the
one being formed on Asotin Flat, in
Washington, across the river from
Lewiston, Idaho. Lewiston is now
justly famous as the greatest fruit pro-
ducing section in Idaho, and the Aso-
tin Flat Immediately across the river
from that place is virtually the same
in characteristics of elm ate and soil,
and water for irrigation has recently
been supplied to it at cost per acre
far beyond the cost of the Bruneau
Valley lands, with perpetual wa
ter rights secured. We confidently
assert that except for disadvantages of
transportation, now the one drawback
to Bruneau, that in every respect it is
the superior of the other localities
mentioned.

DeLamar Strike Settled.

The strike at Leadville is practically
over. A large number of imported d
men are at work and a few of the form
er miners at about the old scale of
wages.
After months of idleness, the loss in
wages of thousands of dollars, the de-
struction of much property, the killing
of some good men and the injury of
many, the increase of the state debt by
large amount, the trouble is over.
No doubt there were faults on both
sides. There usually are. But they
were magnified by each side until the
mole hills seemed mountains.
AT DELAMaR
Lately, we also had strike-or a
cut in wages-or whatever it may be
called. But how different the result
Not a day of lost time, no destruc-
tion of property, no special police, no
militia, nobody killed or injured, no
increase to the state debt, no deep Bit
terness of feeling engendered on either
side, no children cold and hungry, no
streets filed with sullen men.
AS far as can be learned matters
were conducted about as follows:
The Union did not instantly drop
their tools and strike, but kept on at
work while the differences were being
adjusted. They held few extra meet
ings and appointed a few committees,
who argued it out with the mine man
agement.
Each side was probably surprised to
find that the "other fellow" had so
many points in his favor. Each side
yielded point here and there and it
was settled.
We earnestly commend to other
mining camps the DeLamar plan.
The officers OF the Miners Union,
the members of the committees, and
the DeLamar management have the
thanks OF the entire community for
this settlement.

Noun ain Home to Gold Creek, Nevada

Bee Blackstone was in town this
week from his ranch near Hot Springs
in Owyhee county Mr.. Blackstone is
taking an active interest in trying to
secure the construction of wagon
road through a portion of Bruneau
valley to connect Mountain Home with
Gold Creek, the promising young min
ing camp in Nevada, about 100 miles
distant from here. There is already
good road with the exception of 30
miles, and aside from building two
small bridges, Nr. Blackstone says that
roa can be constructed that distance
for nominal sum. He says that the
ranchers in his vicinity will contribute
literally in work, but they are not able
to donate much money. He is conf
dent the building of this 30 miles of
road would be the means of diverting
large traffic to Mountain Home, not
only from Gold Creek, but also from
Mountain City, the Duck Valley In
dian agency and that entire section of
country. Besides, he says, the con-
struction of the road would likely re-
suit in the establishment of a daily
stage line between here and Gold
Creek.
The object of Mr.. Blackstone's visit
here this week was to see if the citizens
of Mountain Home would contribute

equipment of the road. 1t cannot be
possible that all the stories of that wild
section and its enormous wealth in
copper and gold are romances. 1t, on
the other hand, is more than reason
able prediction that development will
prove that the truth has not half been
told about the enormous copper de-
posits and the rich gold veins. 1t is
known to be true that a wonderful tim
ber region would be opened by the pro-
posed road. When the road is con-
structed the surprise will be that such
rich section has not sooner attracted
attention.

If, before they have time to pull off
the brutal fight in Nevada, Congress
will only pass and put into immediate
effect, law excluding all newspapers
from the mail in which accounts of
prize fights are given or such events
advertised in advance, similar to the
law prohibiting advertising lotteries,
we would be willing to forgive the re-
tiring congress many of its sins Of ON
mission and commission. Such law
would not only relieve the people of a
sickening surfeit of twaddle pandering
only to brutal tastes but would cause
the retirement to obscurity of an ele-
ment that has long disgraced civiliza-
ton.

which was unanimously adopted, was the
one which was offered at last years an
nual meeting by James A. Hart of Chica-
go. and then defeated with the vote of
only Mr.. Hart in its favor.
The resolution prohibits exhibition
games at any time between National
league clubs and declares tpat the league
shall in no manner authorize OF lend its
support to any game or games between
the clubs of it's membership, except those
provided for in the regularly adopted
schedule.

adoption of the resolution was on the
part of Mr.. Freedman of New York.
