TO TEST ITS LEGALITY.
Steps Taken Against Idaho's
Code Commission.

Boise, Idaho, April 2S.-The
first step has been taken toward
testing the question of the legality
of the existence of the code COM
mission. This step consisted in
the filing with the attorney general
of the following petition today:
Boise, Idaho, April 81, 1899.
Hon. $. II. Hays, Attorney Cen
eral OF Idaho, Boise, Idaho. Dear
Sir: We ask that an action be
brought in the name of the people
OF Idaho to have determined the
question of the legality of the ex-
lstence of the code commission.
We think this should be done at
once, as a public and not a private
matter, by an action on relation of
the attorney general. Public in
terests, we think, demand this, as
III our opinion, it is serious uues-
ton whether or not this board of
code commission is a legal body.
You may command our profession
al assistance in the matter in such
way as you may deem proper
Very respectfully, Albert A. Fras-
er, Kingsbury & Parsons, Milton
q. Gage, John G. Blake, J. T.
Morgan, Henry z. johnson, Edgar
Wilson, }. II. Richards, T. ].
JOnes.o
Attorney General Hays took the
matter under advisement. It ia
the impression that he will comply
with the request Of the petitioners
and proceed with the case. A
number of authorities bearing upon
the question at issue have been
submitted to him. These he Is
looking over. If the attorney gen.
eral should not feel warranted in
inaugurating the proceedings on
the showing made it would then be
possible for those interested to 90
ahead without him setting up his
declination in their petition to the
court.

Buffalo Hump Country Enthus
es C. w. Hartley.

Boise Statesman.
G. w. Hartley returned to the
city last evening from Grangeville.
He was accompanied by FL. L.
Mcintyre, Buffalo Hump miner,
who owns several claims in that
district.
Mr.. Hartley is SO we'll pleased
with Grangeville and what he has
learned Of the Buffalo Hump coun-
try that he has determined to close
out his business here and move to
Grangeville, operating there and at
the Hump. He expects to be back
there in month. He has already
purchased some property in Grange
vile and he intends to make some
mining investments at the Hump.
81 never saw so much real life
as there is at Lewiston and Grange
ville," said Mr.. Hartley last night.
1.-The ordinary town seems dead in
comparison. The Hump is the
cause of it all, but those places are
reaping a golden harvest in adj
vance of any material production
of the yellow stuff at the big min
ing camp. And when everything
opens up at the Hump in the spring
the activity in those places will
increase.
Mr.. Hartley says people are
rushing north in large numbers.
Two hundred miners are reported
pushing along the Clearwater and
$50 more along the Salmon, bound
for the Hump, while there are large
crowds at Lewiston and Grangeyille
waiting to get in and hundreds on
the way.
Everybody seems to be flush and
business in all lines is on the boom.
Mr.. Hartley met a number of
Boise people who were taken with
the Hump fever. Some of them
were walking from Lewiston to
Grangeville.

alton of the rush and further dis
coveries and development of min
eral wealth. 1t is rs natural as
gravity that Portland should ham
die the commerce of this region,
but there are influences bearing in
other directions, and in these days
of brisk competition those who
seek most assiduously sometimes
succeed in diverting trade from it's
more natural but less energetic
centers. In other words, those
who succeed in this country have
to hump themselves. J. NJ. J..

A Close Call.

Dave Lewis, an old time pros
pector, hunter, trapper, Indian
scout and all round mountain man,
met with an adventure last Thurs
day that well-nigh cost him his
life. He was hunting bear on Van
Buren, creek, tribnhNry of Slate
creek, about 10 miles from Free
dom. He located his game but
found it necessary to get much
nearer in order to be in rifle range.
In doing so he had to climb a
very steep, rugged mountain, and
as he was working his way up
through the brush, over logs and
rocks, he came suddenly upon a
very large brown bear and her
cubs. The old bear without stop
ping to exchange compliments
made n dash for him. As she did
so, he jabbed his gun i'm her face
and fired, at the same time receiv-
ing a blow from the bear that sent
him tumbling down the mountain.
The blow and the fall together rem
dered him unconscious for quite a
while. When he recovered, the
bear was lying dead at his feet, the
bullet having reached vital spot.
Dave made short work of the two
cubs and started for Freedom.
'eaching that place late at night,
where is now nursing a sore head
md breast from the effects of his
nix-up with bruin.

MALLICK DISTRICT.
Ed. n. Clark Talks About that New
Section.

The Mallick mining district
which is part of the great Buffalo
Hump country, is entitled to bt
known as an Idaho KlOndike fol
reasons other than the richness Of
the ores found there, says the Boise
Statesman. According to state
ments made by Ed. n. Clark, who
spent the winter there, and who is
now Boise visitor, that section
has been practically isolated by an
unusually severe winter. klondike
has been copied in the matter OF
getting supplies to the camp, dog
teams and sledges being used.
Men have also traversed the dis
lance between Warren and NAL
lick, about 30 miles, taking sup
plies in on toboggans at 20 to 25
cents a pound. Another Klondike
resemblance lies in the fact that
those who go to Mallick by water
encounter whirlpools and jagged
rocks in the Salmon as difficult to
get through and around as it is to
navigate the White Horse rapids.
Mr.. Clark came out about 100
miles on snowshoes and walked 81
considerable distance before he
could get conveyance. He left
the snow line in the lower part of
Weiser canon. Mr.. Clark says
Mallick will become one of the
most important subdivisions of
the great Buffalo Hump sections.
An effort was made recently to
establish a separate district at
Mallick, bnt the county auditor
denied the application, claiming
part of Mallick belonged to Warren
district and part to the Buffalo
Hump district. Mr.. Clark will lay
the matter before the attorney gen
eral before he leaves the city.
The Star group, upon which the
De Lamar company has an option,
is the best developed mine in the
camp. The groupings assayed
S15.45 ton. Now, at depth of
about 20 feet, the ore runs as high
as SO ton in gold and 40 ounces
of silver. Thirty-six feet of solid
ledge matter has been cut through
without encountering the wall. 1t
is thought the ledge is in the neigh
bOrhood of 100 feet wide.
, There are a number of other
claims there that give fully as great
promise as the Star. Mr.. Clark is
interested in an extension of the
Star. He says $50 to 200 locations
have been made at the Mallick.
From II to 30 men have camped
there all winter ON the snow, max
ing locations and doing what pros
pecting the weather would permit.
On Bull creek, three miles down
the river, some very good mines
have been discovered, and some
ohenomenally rich strikes have
nave been made on the South fork
Of Salmon river, about % miles
rom Warren.
Mr.. Clark says considerable work
has been done during the winter at
Warren, and a very active season
S expected. The Irwin mine, which

PLENTY OF PROVISIONS,
"A Buffalo Humper Says There is Grub
in the Camp TO Feed Five Thousand.

EDITOR PREss:-Considerable in
dignation is expressed by all resi-
dents of Buffalo Hump over tn
ridiculous and, to some extent
damaging reports circulated IN
Spokane by Spokane papers to the
effect that there are no supplies to
be had in Buffalo Hump even al
Klondike prices, as it was an i'm.
possibility to get supplies in on &C
count of the trails and roads being
impossible, etc. Having resided
here permanently since last De-
cember and consequently being
we'll aware of the facts and reign
ing conditions of the present time,
would like to denounce the re-
port circulated contrary to my
statement as a falsehOod.
l have made it my object to per-
sonally investigate the grounds on
which these nonsensical reports
originated, and will state the result
in order to do justice to the condi-
tons as they exist at the present
day, aud for the guidance of pros
pectors and miners that are bent
on coming here, can state as a
fact that there is more than enough
supplies of all descriptions than
would be required to feed and sup
ply population Of 5000 people
for three months. The firm of
Frank Brown & Co., the Buffalo
Hump merchants, have merchan-
disc and supplies stored in their
different warehouses to supply all
demands for at least three months
to come, if they should not get in
another pound in the meantime
In addition to that l can state that
from three to five pack trains of so
pack animals are coming in weekly
for the above mentioned firm, load
ed with supplies. The trails are
in excellent condition and the pack
animals feeding on good grass to
within 20 miles of the Hump,
freighting is done today at a lower
rate of expense than at any other
time of the year.
To verify my statement + can
positively say that the firm of
Frank Brown & Co. have stored in
their warehouses plenty Of -four,
sugar, beans, bacon and ham, and
everything else in proportion. In
answer to the report that supplies
are selling at fabulous prices, I will
state that miners and prospectors
can outfit cheaper today in Buffalo
Hump than they can in Lewiston
or Spokane, and pay the freight.
!, as an old Buffalo Hump miner
and prospector, should advise any,
one coming here to get their outfit
here, and to the faint-hearted ones
| would like to say this: Do not
get scared at the tales of a few

Major Williams Returns.

Boise Capital.
Major Geo. A. Williams, well
known in this part of idaho, re-
turned this week from Grangeville.
He speaks in high terms of the
prosperity and business outlook Of
that portion of Idaho. He says
that three six-horse stages run
daily between Lewiston and
Grangeville, bringing in there an
average of so people day. Major
Williams spent some time cXamin-
ing mining properties near Grange
vile on the Clearwater, Salmon
and Snake rivers. He saw some
good copper veins there. In one
claim he saw vein from 90 to 90
feet wide, rich in high-grade ore.
he brought out some specimens
that go 20 per cent copper and from
" to $50 per ton in gold. On the
Clearwater within 10 miles OF
Grangeville he obtained specimens
that contained both copper and
free gold, an unusual combination
He saw pieces of native copper q
inches long and an inch wide which
had been PANIED from ore taken
from the Clearwater mine. The
vein from which this was taken is
30 feet wide.
Men are pouring into Grangeville
en- route to Buffalo Hump by the
hundred. From 200 to 800 men
are engaged in prospecting on the
Clearwater and Salmon rivers
There are, he says, from two to
three thousand people in Grange
vile, and property there rents as
nigh as it does in Boise. From ~
to 30 buildings were in course Of
erection in Grangevile when Major
Williams left and every one of them
rented from the time the founda-
tiOn was laid.
Asked concerning the permanency
OF the Buffalo Hump mines Major
Williams said every fact pointed to
permanency. In case of the big
mine, the Big Buffalo, it was in
creasing both in width of pay ore
and in value from $40 ton on the
surface to $163, 80 feet down.
Major Williams will leave in
FEW weeks for the east. He invest
ed some money in real estate IN
Grangeville and is much satisfied
with his investment.

A new pamphlet on "Buffalc

its SO neatly printed pages are filled
with attractive illustrations of the
mining country and an excellent
colored map of the Pacific North.
west, with the important mining
districts clearly marked upon it,
accompanies the pamphlet.
The pamphlet contains much
valuable information, somewhat
picturesquely stated, and it is a
worthy addition to the series OF
descriptive booklets that have gone
out from the o. r. & N. passenger
office in the past two years.
II find an eager demand in the
east for this descriptive matter"
said Mr.. Hurlburt in speaking of
it yesterday. "It has been judi
ciously distributed to the very peo-
pie interested in learning about
the Northwest, not sent by the ton
to railroad agents in the cities,
there to lie awhile, and then to be
bundled off as waste paper. Some
of our pamphlets have gone to
Eastern railroad. offices, where
there was assurance that good
judgment would be used in their
distribution. But for the great
/ have the names and adj
dresses to which they were sent
on file, and incidentally / am get
ting a mighty valuable list of the
names of people in the East who
are interested in learning about the
Northwest country. This method
OF advertising costs money, but is
bringing results"
