IN NORTH OAROLINA.

THE situation in North Carolina is
remarkable. That state no longer pre-
tends to have Republican form of
government. Mobs scam at will, the
laws are ignored and innocent persons
punished.
Red-shirt brigades are seen in near
u every section of the state and the
declaration that colored men shall not
exercise the right of franchise is made.
News now comes that Senator MAE
ION BUTLER has been threatened with
violence, and that his life would be
taken should he pass through Will.

where he is booked to speak. He is 8
white man and Populist.
Thus the methods which have been
resorted to, in order to intinidate col
ored men, are being used in order to
brighten white ones.
We dare say that the conditions
which are alleged to exist in CHINA do
not surpass in atrocity those which are
actually taking place In North Caro-
lima. Wilmington, the scene Of the
revolution is now the storm centre of
the effort to overtuIn popular govern
ment.
The Unconstitutional Constitution
al'' Convention propositions viii be
ratified by force and Punetuated by
fraud. In this these blood-thirsty
white men thipk they see an end OF
their troubles. They thought so in
Louisiana, and in Mississippi and in
South Carolina; but, as q matter Of
fact, the last condition ia worse than
the first.
Every colored man should own q
shotgun and repeating ae. He
should be polite and obligiug, yet
ready to defend his home, and proses.
his wife and little ones against al
eomers. He should save his money,
engage in business, and do IS listle
talking ~ possible. With white men
who are friendly to him, he should be

In memory Of Mrs. May Woods of Je-

Every year the Father calleth
Some loved one TO endless rest,
And the heart, tho filed with anguish
Can but cry, He knoweth best"
Every year some hand has finished
All its work for others here,
And we miss voice whose accents
Fell like music on our ears.
And the eyes that smiled 50 sweetly,
Answering back each look OF love,
Now are gazing on the glories
or the beautious realms above.

When we tread the vast unknown,
We shall find our ransomed dear ones,
Seated round the great white throne.

L. G. co. Sued.

Sheriff Dan Campbell was in this vicin-
ity, Saturday, serving papers on the di-
rectors Of the Last Chance Ditch Co.,
gotten out by contractor Poston OF Boise.
Messrs. Peterson and CLARK went to Cald-
we'll today to answer the summons.
Sometime last fall Mr.. Poston entered
into Il contract with the L. q. d. Co. to
put in stone headgate. During the
procedure OF the work, the Board OF
Directors became dissatisfied with the
class Of work being done, and ordered
some Of it torn out. At that time the
Boa rd and Poslon agreed verbally on a
change in the contract Instead Of the
cement being composed of l to 2 the
Board wanted 2 10 3, i e, 2 parts cement
to paris sand, the board agreeing TO
pay for the extra material. The change
called for ne extra amount OF cement,
WINCH could not be gotten at once, thefe-
by delaying the work. The work was
finally completed, and accepted, but 10
settlement made because Poston had put
in bill above the contract price. Mr..
Poston has now sued the company for 81 ..
800 additional pay, $500 lawyer fee and
ak other expenses incurred Ii The trial.

G. M. NichOles' Dwelling Burned

shortly before noon Monday. Most of

saved but everything up stairs was lost.
Everything in the cellar was also con-
sumed.
The cause of the Gre is unknown, but
it started in a room upstairs, and they
concluded that a lamp must have been
lett burning, or that matches were lit
by mice or something of the kind.

well, says that the house was recently
insured but Mr.. Nicholes had not receiv-
ed the papers, for they were in the pust-

Within the past year the city council |
have constructed and ordered Il miles of
side walks, improved Indian creek, grad
ed Front, First, F and 9th St. north. set
about 1000 shade trees. constructed a
drainage system that prevents any stand
ing water to the injury of property own
ers on Fourth street. They have also

Improvements have not exceeded the in
come of the town. A large portion of the
side walks constructed is in front of non
resident speculative property. There has
been but little complaint from our citi-
zens on the sidewalk expense, which has
been very encouraging feature Of the
years work Idaho Leader.
The above clipping which shows what
Nampa has done, shows very plainly
what can be done iu Emmett, and that
we need such improvements cannot be
questioned. In order to do such work
there must be harmony Of action sup
ported by all 1t appears to US that
there is no better way to bring about a
systematic improvement in the appear
ance and conditions Of our vicinity than
by the regulations governing village;
hence, we urge that it is Citing for every
inhabtant to stir himself or herself, get
the village Incorporated, take d pride in
home surroundings and appearances, and
make Emmett one of the pretuesi
aud most desirable locations in this
country We have the natural condi-
tions to help Us.
True the limits as proposed may ap'
parently, at present, impose upon few
that are on the outskirts Of town, but the
fae must be drawn some place and It al
ways incloseS few against their will.
Our present proposed boundary includes
little less that one mile square, which
AN told is much smaller than the Other
incorporated towns of this county. The
principal objection 10 oeiug within The
Incorporation limits IS in the inclease ci
