GLADSTONE'S PLACE.
1t May Be Given to Sir Henry
Campbell Bannerman.
Not Great Man, Hut n Safe Leader
Ills Elevation Would Give New
strength and Vigor TO the
Liberal Party.

Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman has
recently risen as the particular star of
the liberal party in England. Specula-
ton, which has been rife of late upon
the probable leader of the liberals,
seems to have selected this Stirling
Burghs representative as the fttest
man TO take the place of the great Glad
stone and of the more recent Vernon
Harcourt, Successors always, at least
in the beginning, labor under a painful
disadvantage, for they are invariably
compared with the originals. But 1t
not infrequcntly happens that a pupil
exceeds his master, and there is prece-
dent in British history for the new
conner who eclipses the man whose
place he takes.
Unfortunately, this happy fate does
not seem to be reserved for Sir Henry
pbell-Bauncrman as it might be
reserved for Sir Edward Grey. The bat
ter is young; the former is old. Old
men are seldom originals. S,r Henry is
G3; Sir Edward is -. The latter T., an
aristocrat, descended from the very
best ard ucblest Norman blood i'm the
Kingdom. The former is a democrat,
and comedies nothing to his traditions
when he becomes the liberal. The only
question that suggests itself is: Is Sir
Henry amphell-Bauuerman the man
to take Gladstone's place and is he
young enough to improve upon the
grand old mani"

One glance at that hat brought out Il
gun. and there was pop! pop! pop! till
s,N bullets rad been fired. The tender
foot never turned, nor let on that he
heard the shooting. In ten seconds the
guu was reloaded, aud there was an
other fNsiiade. There were "A hundred
people looking On and shouting and
laughing, but the teuderfout kept his

But hadn't the COW boys bullets hit

the drummer, but no one knew it eX-
cept the tenderfoot, and he destroyed
"A i evidence by his own shooting. The

Roaring River PIacers.

Major Fred R. Reed, general man
ager of the Upper Boise Hydraulic
company and other concerns opera
ting on the Boise river, in Gilmore
county, has returned from a trip To
MS various properties. He makes
a very interesting and important
report respecting placer operations
on the river. The various enterprises
have progressed to that point where
it is possible to form a clear esti-
mate of their future, and it is dem
onstrated that the high bar placer
mining oD this stream is destined to
take rank among the chief indus
tries of the state. In talking with
representative of the Staterman.
Major Reed spoke particularly of
those properties in which he is in
terested, but incidently gave valua-
BILE information concerning others.
The major is particularly pleased
with the showing made on the pro-
perty of the Josephine Placer COM
pany on Roaring river, of which w.
Il. Lindsay is superintendent. This
property is about 90 miles above
Twin Springs, or a little over 60
from Boise. 1t embraces 500 acres
OF very choice ground. Mr.. Lind
say is now operating three No. 2
giants. One of these is running on
bar containing about 80 acres.
The gravel of this bar is 16 feet
thick and pays from the grass roots
to bedrock. From four pans of
gravel taken six feet above bedrock
81 $40 cents in gold was obtained.
From all the tests made on the bar
and from the showing made by the
work now in progress it is evident
that the ground is very rich. If it
holds up to the tests it will run 50
yard on an average all through.
The property belonging to this
company extends along the river
distance of two and one-half miles.
1t is the intention of the manage
ment to prospect it thoroughly. If
it proves as good as indicated by the
work so far done at various points,
an extensive canal system will be
put in to supply water for future
working of the claims upon large
scale. The small streams from which
water is obtained for the present
work will hold out until about the
first of August. The canal contem-
plated will take the waters of Roar
ing river, furnishing a continuous
supply throughout the season This
project will involve the investment
of $4,000.
Major Reed stated that his com
panies were employing about rs
men at this time. He was inter
ested, he said, on behalf of his cas-
tern connections, in some 1900
acres of other placer ground on the
river which it was his intention to
have prospected during the present
season-BOise Statesman,

ten days from the time this letter
does.
Regarding the map of Idaho,
must say that have been promised
for year or more that one would
be published, under the direction of
the General Land Office, but up to
the present it is not available
Whenever it can be had | will GER

Hoping the books will reach you in

VIII Test the Salary Law.

The Lewiston Tribune states that
the Nez Perez commissioners have
made an order fixing Wednesday
as the day ON which they will fix
county salaries. Continuing the pa
per says:
This order will afford basis for
a preliminary step in an action that
will be taken TO test the constitu-
tionality of the salary law. The or
der was made and placed on record
at the request of County Attorney
Ii K. Smith of Latah county, who
was acting jointly for the county
officers of Latah county and Nez
Perez county.
ut is the intention to appear be-
fore the supreme court, which meets
in this city Monday, and ask for a
writ prohibiting the commissioners
from fixing the salaries under the
terms OF the new law. This action
will bring the law before the court
and will test the constitutionality
of the measure.
"The points on which the law
will be tested are, first, that the leg
islation is not uniform; second, that
fixed" salaries are not provided,
for in the present law In the
meaning of the constitution; and,
third, that the legislature had no
right to delegate the authority to
fix the salaries to the board of
county commissioners"
