Chambers Is Easy

From the Lafayette Sun.
 It is generally conceded that the demo- crats will carry the county by large ma majority. Ths IS a foregone conclus on. It remains to be seen whether the populists will waste much more ammunition. It goes against the grain to bet against a cer- tainty-to lay your money on lame horse.

Political PIums Dropping.

AS the time approaches for the
new county and state officers to
take their seats, considerable anxi-
ETY. is manifested by the many APP
plicants for deputyships and clerk
ships.
North Idaho obtained but one
state oflice-AuditOr, and Mr..
Sinclair has, as a consequence, re-
ceived many applications for clerk
ships in his office. He has an
nounced two appointments. Col,
Hannaford, of Pocatello, has ac-
cepted the position of chief clerk,
the salary of which is, we are in
formed, about $1,000 year. MIR.
A. Cook, OF Harrison has been
rendered another clerkship. The
position of chief clerk is quite diff
cult to fill, but Col, Hannaford will
be at home in such capacity
Mr.. Cook is fine accountant, now
holding a position with a large
lumber concern. He was chairman
of the silver republican convention
at Occur d Alene.
Mr.. J. c. Callahan, auditor -elect
of Kootenai county, will have fol
his chief deputy Mr.. T. L. Quarles
whom he will take with him from
the assessors office. 1t is rumorec
that J. Monroe Heaton, chairman
Of the silver republican centra
committee, will have a place in the
office.
Mr.. Bradbury, sheriff elect, ha
not yet announced his appointe,
for chief deputy, although he il
understood to have settled upon tn,
appointment.

Col Hannaford of Pocatello,

belittled the governor and brought
the Colonel into prominence and
called attention to his many ex-
cellent qualities, which have

The Kootenai Valley Railway

in the district court to have APP
