George Mccormick for Nome.

OF the many who will explore the
diggings at Nome the present sea-
son, none will be more deliberately
equipped than will be the party
headed by George A. Mccormick of
this eity-the crowd to sail from
San Francisco in May upon one of
the steamers provided by Charlie
Lane. 1t is the intention of Mr..
Mccormick, whose undertaking is
shared by Hon. w. S. Mccormick,
to take with him two dredging ma
chimes with which the gold bearing
gravel shall be handled, a complete
outfit for assaying and metallurgic
work generally, and a number of
well-known experienced placer min
ers, with supplies for an indefinite
stop along the beach. The plans
are now being carefully crystalized
in town and the expedition headed
by Mr.. Mccormick may be relied
on to return with as much of the
yellow as any other.-Salt Lake
Tribune.

self and should be a warming to all
violators of the game and fish laws:
Boise, Idaho, March 6.
Mr.. S. L. Galloway, deputy game
and fish warden, Mountain Home,
Idaho: Dear SRI have received
information from your county that
leads me to believe that parties are
fishing, in violation of the law,
near Mountain Home, l think
they fish mostly on Sundays. l
would like to have this matter in
vestigated at your earliest conve-
nience. Yours very truly,
G. III. ARBUCKLE,
State Fish and Game Warden.
While being unaware of any vio-
lation of the fish or game law in
this vicinity, Deputy Warden Cal
laway wishes to warn all parties
against such acts, as he will surely
prosecute such offenders to the
fullest extent.

Idaho rlidIand Railroad.

Dispatches from the east to the
daily press indicate that work on
the Idaho Midland railroad will
soon be commenced. T. w. Bates,
the promoter, claims that he has Sc
cured sufficient backing in the east
to insure the completion of the
work and that ground will be brok.
en- this spring-commencing at
Boise City and running up the
South Boise river, traversing the
counties of Ada, Gilmore, Custer and
Lemhi and on to Butte City, Mon
tana.
AS Boise has seemingly aban-
doned the hope of obtaining the
Oregon Short Line, the supposition
is that the people of that city will
now donate to the Idaho Midland
the $250,000 already subscribed for
the main line, thereby material y
aiding the new enterprise.
In view of the encouraging re-
ports relative to the building of this
new road, is it not high time that
the business men and property own
ers of Mountain Home take steps
toward inducing the Midland to
come through this place instead of
traversing the barren and unin-
habited canyon of the South Boise
river, where no trade or traffic can
ever be hoped for. The route could
be advantageously changed so as to
come through this place and tap
the South Boise river above the can
yon at some point near Dixie,
without increasing the distance ma
terially.
The BULLETIN, realizing the det-
rimental effect railroad along the
South Boise river would have upon
the business interests of Mountain
Home, hopes that all parties inter-
ested in the future welfare of our
town may take some action toward
inducing the Idaho Midland, if ever
constructed, to come this way in
stead of following the present sur
veyed route.

The criminal case of G. f. Corker
against J. P. Burford, which was
concluded Tuesday evening, at
tracted large crowds during the
trial. Corker, as administrator OF
the estate of VIM. McKim, caused
a warrant to be issued, through the
county attorney, for the arrest Of
Burford, charging him with EN-.
bezzling the sum of $35, which war.
rant was placed in the hands of an
officer with instructions not to ar
rest Burford until he attempted tc
leave town. After about ten days
time Burford learned of the war.
rant being issued and forthwith de-
manded that it be served upon him
which was done. A hearing was
had before the probate court and
Burford was fined $40 and costs
for embezzling 500 that he had re.
ceiyed by the sale of bellows and
anvil belonging to the McKim es
tate, but of which Burford had con
troll by virtue of bond on some
mining property at Bonaparte Civ
en- by Corker as administrator, anc
upon which Burford had made thu
first payment of $500. The cas-,
was appealed to the district court
and the jury, on first ballot, &C
quilted Burford of any criminal &C

COMPROMISED HIS CLAIM.
Dr.. J. Albert Berry Allowed 5000 For
Medical Services to Mrs. Burns.

After the jury of u men had been
called and sworn in the case arising
from the claim Of DR.. J. Albert Berry
for s1-173 against the estate of Laura
Burns for medical services, the case was
compromised for $500.
DR.. Berry's claim was that he made
five visits a day from December l to
February 20 Mrs. Berry has fled a
claim for $500 for nursing and Mrs. IS
bell has been allowed a claim of $50
for nursing. Mrs. Burns roomed at Mrs.
Isbeus as did DR.. and Mrs. Berry. Whsn
Mrs. Burns was taken sick she lived in
a house of her own but later was re-
moved to the boarding house of Mrs.
IsbeH where the Berrys lived.
The Burns estate is said TO be worth
all the way from $4,000 to $40, 900. At
the time of her death it was supposed
that the only heir TO the estate was
Mrs Jane Cohen, of Boston, a sister Of
Mrs. Burns. A Mr.. Dodge, represent
ing her, came to Topeka and agreed on
John R-Mulvane as administrator Soon
after it was found that Mrs. Burns had
been married twice and that Charles L
Horne of Cleveland was her grandson
and heir. He was represented by Geo.

Connecticut Republicans Recog-

Hartford, Conn, May 9-when the
bled today the controversy over the
seating of delegates from Cornwall and
Bethlehem was decided in favor of the
Flyer delegates.
The resolutions reaffirm the declara-
tions of the St. Louis platform, all the
promises OF which it is asserted. in re-
lation to the gold standard currency
reform and the tariff, have been strict
" kept, and made a part of the law
of the land by a Republican congress.
The people of Connecticut are con-
graduated on the conduct of the war.
AS to Porto Rico and the Philippines,
the platform expresses the belief that
''it is the high and sacred duty of the
nation TO secure to the people OF those
islands the blessings of liberty, peace
and happiness"
On the subject Of trusts the platform
says:
so far as these great corporations
strive to lessen the cost Of production
without lowering the standard of wages
to the end that they may successfully
enter and command the markets of the
world to the advantage of the American
consumer and wage-earner, they may
be well endured.
But we believe congress and the
legislatures of the several states should
without delay enact such laws as may
be necessary to protect stockholders
against fraud, Iaborers against injus-
tfce and consumers against extort1on-
