Governor Atkinson Vetoes the Bill
Prohibiting the Sport in That
State,

Atlanta, Ca, Dec. S.-Governor Atkin-
son yesterday afternoon vetoed the
anti-football bill. He sent a message
to the house stating that he had vetoed
the measure, as he thought the question
of whether college boys should play
football should be left with the facul-
ties of the various institutions.
1t is possible an effort will be made to
pass the bill over the governors veto,
but it is not at all likely such an effort
would succeed.

What is the matter with the law
passed by the last session of the legis-
lature, prohibiting corporations en-
ploying alien labor in this state? Or
what is the matter with the officers in
Idaho, that they do not enforce the
law? Here we have had the spectacle
of strike by the Jap section hands on
the Short Line. and not a word said
about the railroad company illegally
employing them. We supposed the
law was made for the very purpose of
preventing railroads employing Mon
golians and that it only incidentally
effected the foreign white men en-
ployed in the mines; yet the mine oper-
ators respect the law and the railroad
companies do not.

Informing him of the death Of one Of

Mr.. McCarty has recently, through

sible position in the Government Arch

has about made up his mind to accept.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mac. is

account. Then again Senator Foraker
is ambitious to become the leader of
Ohio politics and that is impossible so
long as Mark Hanna remains in the
senate. He would not be sorry to see
Boss Hanna defeated and it is probable
that in quiet way his influence will be
used for Mclean. On the other hand
the Democrats are united as they have
not been in Ohio for many years. They
are conducting an active, systematic
and energetic campaign and they are
inspired with confidence in the result.
Hanna's rise TO prominence In national
politics was, to say the least, meteoric
and unless all signs fail, his downfall
will be as rapid as was his rise, with
the briliiancy left out.-Spokane

indicates that hole might have
been sunk eight or ten feet on it, and
the hole is now nearly filled up again.
1t is apparent now that this hole had
really been a forty foot shaft from
which the miners who sunk it had run
drift to the adjoining ledge. But the
mystery remains. What became of the
rock and dirt taken out of this shaft
and drift unless it was put back in
again? The only plausible solution is
that the Indians who killed the miners
had nearly filed up the shaft, to keep
other miners from finding the ore.
Mr.. Sotheren is finding some very
rich ore in his shaft and the men feel
confident that they have "struck it
rich" Mr.. Tim Shea one of the owners
has just returned from a visit to the
property, though feeling good over the
outlook, says that but little definite
can be told regarding the extent of the
find until the cave in the old drift is
cleared up, and further work done.

Committee.

The campaign in Ohio is attracting
an unusual amount of attention this
year although a political fight in the
Buckeye state never fails to arouse a
large amount of interest.
Although an entire state ticket is to
be elected, the interests centers in the
senatorial contest between the present
senator, NJ. A. Hanna, and John r.
Mclean, editor af the Cincinnati En-
quirer. There is almost an unaccount-
able feeling of confidence in the Demo
cratic ranks, while the Republicans are
so uncertain that desperate efforts are
being made to induce President Nc
Kinley to take hand in the campaign
and save the state from going Demo-
cratic.
1t seems almost incredible in the
face of Republican assertions of pros
perity that a Republican state like
Ohio could possibly turn down the adj
vance agent of that much desired state
of affairs, but from present indications
it seems quite probable that such will
be the result.
In spite of Republican assertions to
the contrary, the sentiment in favor of
silver is steadily growing. This is de-
monstrated by the several congression-
al elections that have taken place in
which the silver candidate has been ell
ected by largely increased majorities.
In Ohio the silver sentiment is especi-
ally strong and there will be lacking
the big campaign barrel of money to
influence the vote of Ohio, as it was in
fluenced last fall. To be sure, there is
a majority of about $4,000 to be over
come and in an ordinary campaign it
would be an almost hopeless task, but
this is not an ordinary campaign and
there are several factors in the fight
that make Democratic victory more
than probable. In the first place,
Hanna, even among the people of his
own state, is regarded with aversion
and dislike. His unscrupulous meth
ods disgust the honest citizens of both |
parties and there will be large defiec- |
tion from the Republican vote on that ]

Edward Wood Dead.

The cruel shot fired by John Tremel
ling on Saturday night, the 7th inst.
completed its work about twelve O'Clock
last Tuesday night and the soul of poor
Edward Wood, the victim, passed over
the divide into the mysterious world
beyond. His vigorous manhood helped
him to make a gallant struggle for life,
and that he held on so long was sur
prise to his friends. He was most ten
derly nursed and cared for, at the in
stance of both the Odd Fellows, to
which order he belonged, and by the
Miners Union, of this camp, Of which
he was popular member, and no pains
were spared to alleviate his sufferings.
He is gone, leaving a young wife to
mourn his loss.
The man whose rashnees impelled
him to fire the fatal shot at one who
had always been his friend, thereby
blighted the lives of two women and
placed his own in jeopardy of the law.
Let the law deal with him and do not
let the fair fame of Owyhee and of
Idaho be stained by any mob violence,
as has been proposed by some of our
rasher citizens. Let justice be done.
The funeral services of deceased were
conducted by DeLamar Lodge No. At,
1. o. o. F., at 3 o'clock, on Thursday.

and the DeLamar Miners Union at

being, out of Difference to the occasion.
Deceased was few months over %
years of age, native of Pennsylvania,
where his relatives still reside. He was
whole souled, free hearted and always
of kindly disposition, esteemed and
liked by all who knew him. He was
married to Miss Mary Cox,o Meridian,
Idaho, about year ago and his domes-
tic relations has been of the happiest
nature.
~
Coroner Weston came down from
Silver City Wednesday morning and
held an inquest and an autopsy upon
the remains of Edward Wood. 1t was
found that the bullet, after penetrating
the right lung, had struck the sixth
rib near the vertebra and had then
been DETECTED at nearly right angles
and was lodged in the tissues Of the
left luug.
The Jury found that the deceased |
came to his death by reason of gun
shot wound, inflicted by the hand of
John Trembling. A new complaint
will be filed against Trembling by the
Coroner, charging him with murder,
he now being held under the charge of
assault with intent to commit murder.

In the earlier days of mining upon
War Eagle Mountain, when all was
rush and excitement there, a couple of
prospectors brought, at two or more
into Silver City and disposed of it to
A. Simodi, who at that time had an as
say office in the camp, he paying them
from four to eleven dollars per pound
for the ore. They reported they OBJ
tanned the ore from a prospect some
where south of War Eagle. People
who were disposed to follow the pros
pectors were deferred, first because
there were suspicious that the ore was
stolen from War Eagle mines, and, sec
ondly by the fact that hostile Indians
were prowling through that region and
it was dangerous to go far from camp.
Finally the remains of these same pros
pectors were found and buried, having
been killed by Indians. The late Mr..
Robert Bruce helped to bury the men,
and their supposed find passed out of
mind.

that the poor sufferer becomes, almost,
frenzied with the intensity of the pain.
Salvation Oil will instantly relieve and

ton Oil, she has not had a spell. I

that Salvation Oil did me more good
than any other remedy" Salvation

Didn't Believe 1t.

Some years ago, while visiting the
Spokanes, Gen. Philip Sheridan related
to the Indians, through an interpreter,
the wonders of the railroad, and then
waited to see what effect the revelation
would have upon them. What do they
say?" he asked the interpreter. "They
say they don't believe it," was the an
swer. Sheridan then described the
steamboat, and the interpreter repeated
this. What do they say to that?" the
general asked again, seeing the Indians
faces all impressive. "They say they
don't believe that, either" Then the
general gave an account of the tele-
phone, and told how a man at the end of
a long wire had talked to man at the
other end of it. The interpreter re-
manned silent. "Well," said the gen
eral, why don't you interpret that to
them?' Because don't believe that
story myself" answered the conscien-
tions man.

The Presidents Daily Routine.

ExPresident Harrison has written
of "a Day With the President at His
Desk" for the March Ladies' Home
Journal. The article is said to be
slngularly interesting in the detail
with which it describes the wear1some
routine of the president. 1t is said
that General Harrison, in this article,
has delivered himself with great di-
rectness and vigor, relative to the
annoyances that are visited upon a
chief executive by persistent office
seekers, and he suggests an unique
plan, by which the PRESIDENT burdens
IN that direction could greatly light
ened, and he be enabled to devote
more attention to more important
matters. A feature of the article that
will have a timely interest to those
ambitious to serve the country under
the incoming administration, de-
scribes very fully how the president
makes appointments to office. ga
Day With the President at His Desk

the daily life of the president has
