undoubtedly made a deep impression
upon the officials of the administration
by his statements relative to affairs In
the Philippines when he left. His opti-
mistic Views have convinced some Of
the leading officials, at least, that the
end of the war in the Philippines is in
sight. One of the arguments which he
used to support this belief was chart
OF the Philippine group. On this the
various races populating the islands
were graphically set out in colors, the
significant feature is the small show
Ing made by the Tagals. Not only does
the chart show that this tribe forms
but a small portion of the total pop
ulation Of the Philippines, but it makes
IL appear that the Tagals in insurrec-
ton against the United States consti-
tnte only portion of the tribe, and
mat whole provinces in Luzon, notably
al the northern extremity of the is
lands, are either friendly to the United
states, or at least neutral

F. VI. BoYD's AFFAIRS.
His Finances in Bad Shape and Many Par.
ties are Losers.

The present week has been an
interesting one in stock circles.
Indications are that the financial
affairs Of Frank w. Boyd Of the
sheep firm Of Boyd & Lifts are
not what his friends would desire.
Mr., Buel, of the Evlns, Snider,
Buel company, arrived here the
first Of the week. This firm has
a mortgage on the Boyd & Lifts
sheep. Mr.. Wilson, the repre-
sentative of ex-Governor Rich
ards of Wyoming, who pur-
chased IA 900 Of the sheep of Mr..
Boyd last March, arrived on May
Ist to receive the sheep for Mr..
Richards. Sheriff O'Neil is now
gathering sheep in this county
the Evans, Snider, Buel mort
gage. The sheriff of Lincoln
county is gathering those in his
county under the same mortgage.
The sheep in Lincoln county are
in the possession Of "A. ]. Knoll
Inns & Co., who purchased same
for Mr.. Swift. Mr.. Wilson has
returned to Wyoming, content to
pocket the loss Of the money adj
vanced. The Evans, Snider,
Buel company, we understand,
will get what they can from their
securitp, and their loss, if any,
will be charged to profit and loss.
Mr.. Boyd left here about last Fri
day and was in Boise the first of
the week, since when nothing
has been heard of him. He stood
high in this community, and es
pecially amongst business men.
We understand that no criminal
prosecutions are contemplated
being considered by the interest
ed parties that there has been nc
criminal liability incurred Ell

be of great convenience 10 all the
people between these points.
According to the Statesman the
time card for the way trains will
be about as follows:

Wonderful idaho Valley.

Farm profits of $500, $500,
$500 and even occasionally $1,000
per acre seem vain boasts. But
the manager of the Vineland COL
ony, Mr.. E. H. Libby, of Con-
cord, Washington, writes us that
he has affidavits of the growers
showing that such profits are
quite common among the fruit
and vegetables producers of Lew
iston valley The reasons are,
the small area of competing lands,
the superior markets afforded by
the near mining camps, and
proximity to the mountain towns
Of the interior. Such profits,
with a mild winter climate, pleas
ant homes and good schools, ETC.,
make Vineland an ideal commune

Trouble at the Duck Valley Indian Reservation.
Quite a scandal is now on down
at the Duck Valley Indian Reser-
walton. 1t appears that there has
been illicit intimacy between some
of the employees, the cook and
some of the young squaws attend
ing the school, and the parents of
the girls being apprised of it,
came to Agent Mayhugh with
complaints about it. Agent May
hugh went to the school to make
inquiries about the matter and
was met in front of the school
building by an irate red haired
French Irish school marin, who
pulled a gun on him saying, "you
old scoundrel, what do you want?"
Just then the doctor of the agen-
cy stepped up, took the gun out
of the irate females hand and
took a shot at the agent, and then
whack at the agency black
smith, who had just put in his ap-
pearance. He did little better
work on the blacksmith, hitting
him in the short ribs, but moi
wounding him seriously. The
agent had the Indian police arrest
the parties aud take them tc
Mountain City where he learned
that the state authorities coulc
do nothing, because the ofenst
was committed on a government
reservation, and the agent is nov
at Winnemucca, seeking the as
sistance of the u. S. Attorney

This is the way it looks to the
Montpelier Examiner: "The
Republicans in Idaho are not hav-
ing the smoothest sailing. There
is developing Shoup and an
anti-Shoup sentiment. Those of
the colonel's friends will demand
a plank in the next Republican
state platform repudiating the
fusion of Republicans and Popu-
lists in the last state senate. Of
course the senators and their
friends will buck this proposition
to finish, and there will be fun.
Then, there is Gooding looking
for Shoup's scalp, and Shoup
wants to succeed himself, and so
it is developing. "Coming
events" ETC., and the shadow in
this case is already getting ex-
ceedingly dark"

The Recorder says that it has
information that nearly all the
alfalfa in Pahsimari valley was
winter killed. The same thing has
happened to a great extent in the
Boise Valley and also in portions
of the States of Washington and
Oregon on the eastern border.
Says the Rccorder: at is Civ
en- out in railroad circles that the
Burlington G. Missouri road,
which is being vigorously pushed
from Alliance up the North Platte
valley into Wyoming, is driving
for the Jackson Hole coal fields
and thence west to the Pacific
coast. The main line will be
built up the Platte valley to Fort
Laramie, then on to Casper,
thence by Thermopolis to Jack
son Hole. The route is the only
feasible one to the coast, about
midway between the the o. S. L.
and Northern Pacific, and will
tap an immense mineral area as
well as grazing, agricultural and
timber interests. This is the
line which has so long been dis
CuSSed and hoped for. 1t will
enter Lemhi county by the Birch
creek route, follow the Lemhi
down to this city where it joins
the Salmon, than on down that
stream to Lewiston. This route
will give about $50 to 40 miles
Vi raIlroad IN our county and will
open up a grand scope of country.
1t it should be built in the next
two years Salmon City will be
