Robt. Campbell returned from
Salt Lake City one day last
week. He informed US that it

Gus Betz and Peter Mcclure

ness trip to Challis last week.
Mr.. johnson is working few
men on the Uncle Ben mine up

ment work.

popular Democratic nominee for
Assessor, and E. G. Chamberlain,
nominee for Sheriff, were in this

fideDt of success Nov. 6th.

The only hope the Republicans
in Custer county have is to get
the Democrats to scratch their
tickets. Why should the Demo
Gratis do this when they have
equally as good men and women
on their ticket The Republi-
cans as a rule vote straight tick
cts, and the silver voters of Gus
ter county should do likewise.
| Hon. Willis Sweet and M. A.
Kurtz spoke in behalf of the Re
publican party in Challis last
Thursday night. Mr.. Sweet is
an entertaining speaker, but the
other gentleman as q public ora
tor was a decided failure. Mr..
| Sweet told US that we ought to
send men to Congress that would
vote for silver. If so, that would
keep Shoup and Morrison at
home. His speech was a good
argument, but evidently did not
conform to his actual belief.
\ Born. To the wife of Walter
Baxter. in Salmon, on the 18th,
a IL pound son.
A Republican rally was held
last Monday evening at Shoup's
hall. Addresses were made by
ex- Congressman Sweet and NJ.
/ A. Kurtz. Mr.. Sweet is an elo-
quent speaker and his talk was
well received, but Mr.. Kurtz's S
arguments appeared to be most
ly abuse of the Democratic party.
| When he mentioned Bryan's S
name, the cheers which followed
showed the political complexion
of the meeting, at least three
fourths of those present being
Bryan sympathizers. This ir-
ritated the speaker to such an
extent that he exclaimed in the
language of Tillman. You poor
ignorant miners - This was a
} very poor way to secure votes.
) We hope he will continue to trav-
ell with Mr.. Sweet, for he will
! surely counteract whatever fav-
J orable impressions that gentle
man will make in his progress
throughout the state.-Salmon
Recorder.
A vote for Ravenel Macbeth
and Henry F. Powell means q
vote to send Fred. T. Dubois,
Idaho's great silver champion, to
the United States senate.
1t has developed that the New
York ice trust is wholly control
led by Republican politicians.
This explains why Governor
Roosevelt has refrained from
shooting the New York ice trust
in the back.
: The Salt Lake papers say tha
the o. S. l.. is sure to build q
branch line from Blackfoot to
Challis in order to head off the
Burlington, which is pushing
this way as fast as possible, be-
sides the surveyors who started
) from here last week, are making
; a permanent survey, which looks
like business. .-Blackfoot Mail.
