FOR A NEW CHURCH.
Polish Catholics Are Attempting to Form
An Organization IN This City.

An effort is on foot to make another
addition to the church organizations of
the city and it seems that the move
ment will undoubtedly be a success.
The movement is among the Polish
Catholics, of whom there is large
number in the city. On last Sunday a
Polish priest from Ripon was in the
city and meeting was held, at which
nearly all the Polish families in the
city were present. The meeting re-
suited in a committee being appointed
to canvass the city and ascertain the
feeling in regard to the new Catholic
church and they have met with great
success. There are over fifty Polish
families in the city and nearly all these
are enthusiastic over the new church.
The new church, if erected, Will draw
its membership largely from st.
Georges church.

Hint to County Commissioner.

The following letter to Walter
Clark of Ketchum from Charles
Crane, the well-known mining man
Of Utah and Salt Lake capitalist,
written at Stanley Basin, where Mr..
Crane is eny1ged tn extensive min
ing operations, contains some good
suggestions to tho county fathers :
STANLEY, Ida. June l, 1898.
WALTER CLARK, ESQ.,, Ketchum,
Idaho-Dear Sir: desire to call
your attention to the urgent neces-
sity Of Blaine county repairing the
road into this valley-the finest in
the state. You surely are not aware
Of the great amount of travel there
would Be to HALEY and your place
If . bridge was thrown over the
Salmon river two miles above the
Redfish Lake. This crossing 10 al-
ways dangerous on account of the
marshy landing. Stanley now has
100 men prospecting and working,
over 1000 cattle are now in the val
ley and about 200 horses. Seafoam
will give employment to . number
of men this summer, and if ore can
be freighted cheaply to Ketchum-
cheap enough to pay expenses
steady stream will be poured out
from now on. HALEY and Ketchum
are the natural entrepot of this
whole region, the base of supplies
for a region Gan empire in extent
containing more mineral wealth
than the same extent Of country on
earth. Millions Of tons of aurifer-
Gus and argentiferous ores are now
exposed awaiting cheap transporta-
ton and methods Of reduction.
Blaine county can secure the
trade Of this whole region by SIM
ply improving her highways, and
which will not exceed $1,000. Every
man in Blaine county would be
benefited. Farmers would have a
market for surplus grain; oats are
now q cents per pound. Merchants
of Blaine county would secure this
trade, which now goes to Boise and
often to Custer and Challis, where.
although nearer, prices rule higher
owing to the great distance from
tho railroad.
A little enterprise and energy
now, Oh the part of your county
officials, will bring q good return for
q few hundred dollars investment.
Yours truly, CHAs. CRANE,
Bull Dog Mine.

There Are Others.

So far in the prese Mt war Dewey's
great victory at Manila made him
the hero of the hour, but now comes
the gallant Lieutenant Hobson and
his crew Of seven, who, in the face
of almost certain death, carried out
tho project of sinking the Merrimac
in the Santiago channel, thus block
ing Csrvera's deet in the narrow
entrance, which 10 . blow to the
enemy scarcely less than that in
aicted at Manils. It may prove even
greater in immediate consequences,
for it insures tho loss 10 Spain OF
Admiral Cervera's feet.
In naval history there never was
a more complete entrspping. Will
it be captured" or destroyed
Cervera can not get out to fight.
The contingency of a battle in
which American ships might be
destroyed is removed. Until the
Merrimac was destroyed there was
always present the possibilities of
an attempt to break the blockade.
The Spanish feet had q chance at
least to give battle. Now that is
gone. Cervera is shut up where he
can do no harm to the American
navy. When the time comes and the
lines have frightened so that be can
stand on the defensive no longer,
what will he do? Naval officers
think that the Spanish Admiral will
stay and shoot and will never sur.
render his ships. They think that
when he can no longer extend the
struggle he will blow up the four
cruisers and two destroyers and
calmly offer himself and bis men
as prisoners Of war.

He sent for his partner, Mr.. Carey,
and they have both gone up pre-
