Howell Bros, William and
Charlie, one day last week pur-
chased the stock, wagons, etc.
of the G. G. & G. Stage Line
from Poppy & Fox, and will
hereafter conduct the business.
The new proprietors are practi-
cal stage men and we can see no
reason why they should not be
successful.

Miss K. Wallace, of New Or
leans. La, arrived in Challis
last Wednesday on visit to
friends.
Mr.. Wilson, of Boise, was here

The Idaho Statesman takes
column of space to explain why
Judge Standrod, the republican
candidate for governor, refused
to permit laboring man from
the railroad shops of Pocatello
to appear in his court before re-
moving his overalls. He may
scorn the honest laborer from
the bench. but at the polls the
most humble are equals of the
aristocratic Judge, and all expla-
nations that the Statesman can
make between now and election
will not secure Judge Standrod
the labor vote of this state
Coeur d'Alene Press.
1t will be remembered that not
long ago Mr.. Bates had a sensa
tional interview in the Statesman
where he was quoted as saying
that if Bryan was elected Idaho
would lose millions of dollars.
These kind of statements by the
republicans prior to election
have grown absurd and do not
need refutation, but an interview
with Frank Burns recalled the
point to us. In contradiction to
that statement Mr.. Burns says
he has just passed through a sec
ton of country which contains
immense silver mines like Allan
ia and Banner. If Bryan is
elected and these mines opened
up, as they would be, there
would be a payroll in that Sec
ton amounting to 100000 a
month. Now the country is per-
fectly dead and business is par
alyzed. d.-Nampa Leader.
Articles have been filed in the
Office of the county auditor for
the incorporation of a mining
concern, which is to be known as
the Stanley Basin Mining Com
pany. limited.
Its purpose is to buy. sell, OPP
crate, lease and bond mining
properties in Stanley Basin. The
business of the company is to be
transacted in Boise and its prin-
cipal Office will be located here.
The articles of incorporation are
taken out for a period of SO
years, The corporate powers of
the company will be vested in a
board of five directors, who are:
J. w. Bancroft, E. H. Beggs, j.
L. Weaver, @. w. Poindexter
and ]. r. Kennedy. j. w. Ban
croft has been chosen president.
E. H. Beggs, vice-president, j.
L. Weaver, secretary, and G. w.
Poindexter, treasurer. The cap
ital stock of the company is $50,
600. divided into 5000 shares of a
par value of so each. The hold
ers of this stock are J. L. Weav-
er, H. G. Paterson, j. r. Ken
nedy, I. p. Marcellus, ]. D..
Riggs, Joseph Turtle, c. w.
Poindexter, E. H. Beggs, S. B,
Coulter and J. w. Bancroft, each
of whom have subscribed the sum
of $3.50.
The company intends to tran
sact a general mining business,
but will have for its main object
the development of the rich plac'
er properties which are known
to exist in the Stanley Basin. II
there is quartz of sufficient quail
ity and quantity to warrant larg-
er operations, the company will
enter this field also. Its organ
ization should be big thing tc
those owning properties in thai
locality. Previously there has
been small chance to get excel
lent properties into the market,
but the operation of several
claims which the company con
trolls ought to do a great deal to
draw capital to that section. -
