RATHER ROMANTIC.

Officials of the Idaho Railroad
Company are reporting that the bonds
of this corporation (?) have been is
sued and sold. This information is
somewhat startling and goes further
to demonstrate confidence restored
than any or all other evidences of
present prosperity. This is apparent
when we state that the corporation
has no legal status, no surveyed line,
and has no maps filed to secure right
of way over public lands-and in fact
is in no position to issue any legiti-
mate evidence of Indebtedness, even
If the property it intends to acquire
was worth anything, and it is not.
The statement looks like lie, or q
bad case of misplaced confidence,
and man would be as rank an idiot
to believe the statement as one would
be to invest in the alleged securities,
but they do say there is a sucker
born every minute, if the above
is true, the average will have to be
raised Indemnity.

The Tribune and Teller are two
excellent papers published at Lewis
ton, Idaho They are issued twice
each week. A third paper has just
made its appearance as a daily. We
are sure that Lewiston has made a
mistake in encouraging a third paper
Every town likes to have as large and
creditable paper as possible, The
only way to have that is, not by a
horde of half starved sheets, but by
concentrating the patronage into q
smaller compass. Lewiston has not
heretofore been able to support a
daily-if it was, the Tribune or Teller
would have issued one. Had the
businessmen increased their business
with the semi weeklies just that
much-had the newspaper support
wormed out OF the town by the new
paper being added to that already
given to the semi weeklies, one or the
other of them would have branched
out into daily, if their experience
there told them it would pay. Had
this been done step would have
been taken towards future substantial
and creditable representation, but a
third paper is going backward. Too
little business divided among too
many papers is going down hill in
stead of up. Lewiston you have
made mistake

way of the Salmon and Little Salmon
into this great copper camp the
SIGNAL will rejoice and make no
criticism except that the company
building would show very poor dis
erection in selecting a longer route
when the way up the Weiser Valley
was available, that is, unless they in
tended to build through line. The
road from Lewiston would be sue
cess; so it would from Payette, or
from Nampa or from Boise, but they
would all cost more than from Weiser,
be longer and have heavier grades.
But the Idaho Railroad and Snake
River project will be positive failure.
The Tribune is entirely unjust in
making it appear that anything has
been said against those who wanted
to put their money in. We have said
nothing against them, but have sim
ply warned them that an attempt was
being made to palm fraud off on
them to bunco them out of some of
the money they intended to spend.
Lucien caves, j. S. Lock and others
are not furnishing the capital for the
enterprise-they expect to make
Doodle out of it. One or two Lewis
ton men whose names appear IN the
incorporation papers are not furnish
ing capital, but have simply allowed
their names to be used. Perhaps to
not such burning desire to see
'justice" done is the Tribune article
due, as to the influence of Lewiston
parties. Possibly even now Eaves is
travelling in the interest of the fool
hardy Idaho Railroad scheme and
using the Tribune article as backing
to show motive for the SIGNALS
exposure of the game. If the gen.
tlemen who are promoting that farce
have any backing it is only from the
sources that have for years been try
ing to defeat the opening of the
Seven Devils and prevent its entering
the copper market.
The SIGNAL would not do justice to
the interests of this country if it
quietly allowed those who want to
open the country to be swindled.
We are simply making an effort TO
prevent the district from being given
another black eye and development
defeated as it has been done in the
past. We simply rise to remark in
conclusion that, by way of Weiser
and up through the fertile grain and
fruit laden valleys that intervene is
best way TO the great copper field and
other mineral localities of Washing
ton and Idaho counties. The Lewis
ton stock holders in the Idaho Rail-
road scheme are of course ignorant
of the above facts, their prominent
connection with it admits of no other
explanation.

The action of the Union Pacific

play to run down the price of the
property to the lowest possible point,
in anticipation of the coming sale of
that property in October, and it is
just as well to make clean big steal

past policy has been to cut the dogs

THE JURY DISAGREED.
Eleven of the Good Men and True Lacked
Legal Evidence.

Legal Evidence.
l had been down in the mountainous
regions of Tennessee for my health and
made n great many pleasant acquaintances
among the strange people of that section.
Nothing of an exciting nature occurred
until the earlier part of October, when one
of tho men of whom l had seen good
deal was arrested on tho charge Of selling
bottles of moonshino whisky at fair.
There seemed no chance of clearing him,
but bright young lawyer undertook his
defense and handled 1t like veteran. The
case on the part of the government was
made. A bottle of whisky that the ac-
cused had sold was offered In evidence, and
dozen witnesses swore that they had
seen him disposing of like bottles.
The prisoner was not plac, 4 upon the
stand and no one was called = testify in
his behalf I grew indignant at this ap.
parent betrayal of his cause and ventured
to whisper to the young attorney that he
should at least make showing. But he
knew his business Solemnly addressing
the court, he said:
"Your honor, there has not been one
word of proof offered, aside from unsub-
stantiated statements, that the flask here
In evidence contains whisky, or that there
was whisky in any of the bottles my client
is said to have disposed of :"
"The jury can take it with them and
determine for themselves" CURLY inter
rupted the judge.
"That is entirely satisfactory, your
honor"
Though sent in time and again, the
jury found it impossible to agree and was
finally dismissed.
"What was the natter" I ventured &c
ask of the foreman after it was all over.
"Waal, stranger, you noticed that pint
bottle we took imp
eyes. You were to find out what it
contained"
$50 tn jedge said Jake Hoover war
tn fust one ter make tn test, sub. When
he had ter stop ter take breath, there
warn't n doggone drop lef'. He said
'twarn't quite 'nough ter make sure on it,
but it 'peared ter be whisky. But thar war
leven on us thar that didn't have legal
testimony Jake war TIL one that dis.
agreed.

HE DEFENDS THE GUIDES
ATTORNEY GENERAL SMITH RE-
LATES HIS EXPERIENCES.
Mr.. Smith Does Not Agree With jamie
Wilder and Gives His Reasons-The
Guides Are Not Robbers.

Editor Star:-The views expressed
by Mr.. Jamie Wilder in regard to Jap
anese guides, as published in The Star
of last evening are liable to give Il
wrong impression. While the recent
visit of DR.. Wood and myself to Japan
was brief one, and the experience ac-
quired small, as compared to Mr..
Wilder's our experience with Japanese
guides was very agreeable.
In Kioto our guide rendered us val
liable service, and enabled us to see
very much more than we would other
wise have been able to see in the time
at our disposal, and was moderate in
his charges. And a guide whom our
friend, DR.. j. \. Hart, of Colorado
Springs, employed, and whose name is
S. Ito, and whom we saw a good deal
of, proved himself most serviceable
attendant and guide.
The guides with whom it was my
fortune to have experience with in
Japan were intelligent young Japan
ese: gentlemanly, attentive and very
well informed. That these guides have
friends in business who make it an
object for them to bring tourists to
their shops, | have no doubt, and that
they seek to make profit out of their
business is to be expected. And if any
traveller chooses to place any amount of
money in their hands to dispose of at
their option he should blame himself
if expenses are larger than they ought
to be.
The regular charges made by the
licensed guides are two yens (about
one dollar and ten cents) per day, and
railway fares; they paying their own
hotel bills. They speak 4-nglish well,
are thoroughly informed in regard to
all places of interest, railway routes,
and railway timetables.
There are dishonest people among
all races of people, and there are
doubtless dishonest guides in Japan,
but to denounce them all as "heart-
less band of thieves" seems to me very
unjust.

En- VOYAGE.

En- Voyage.
In the shadows coldly fitting,
Solemn as the tomb,
Charon in his boat was sitting
Wrapped in ashen gloom.
Through the gray shades softly cropping,
Round the shore he steered,
For pilgrim fondly hoping
In the mist he peered.
Soon a youth both tall and stately
Did the oarsman greet;
Said he was at Harvard lately
As he took seat.
Charon saw him sigh and SILVER
On those murky shores,
While he pushed out in the river
And resumed his oars.
In the silence all unbroken,
Desolate, supreme,
Not syllable was spoken
All was like a dream.
Through the leagues Of gray unending
Still the pilgrim lone
AT the oars watched Charon bending
For the great unknown.
Charon, swaying backward, forward,
Onward urged his bark,
And was moving surely shoreward
Ger the curroslt dark,
Then the pilgrim, wan and weary,
Broke the mystic spell,
When his accents, faint and dreary,
On the waters fell.
And today tits not known whether
Charon made reply
When the student said, 'You feather
Just bit too hight"
