The death Of Col. John w.
Jones, mayor of Blackfoot and edi-
tor of the Blackfoot News removes
one Of the ablest, pnrest and bright
est men in the state. Col. Jones
commanded the Idaho volunteers
in the Philippines aud all the boys
spoke well Of him. He was vet
eran Of the Confederate army and
a type OF the old chivalric high
toned southern gentleman. Heart
disease was the cause OF death.
In a recent case in Blaine county
Judge Perky, decided that women
are legally incoml ieient to serve
as jurors under section 1886 Of the
revised statutes, which reads
as follows: IA jury is body of
men temporarily selected from the
citizens of a particular district and
invesl ed with power to present or
indict person for a public offense
or to try any question Of fact"
A pleasant card party was given

Taylor, Mr.. and Mrs. McDermid
Mr.. and Mrs. Ned Green, and

ships, the vastness of the states
holdings and their value is ap-
preciated. An official Of the state
land department says: "This sale
while the most important ever
made by the state and representing
handsome sum, only disposes Of
very small part Of the states
holdings, as there are millions oil
feet of just as good timber which
the board will offer for sale at some
future date" At the rate the
present administration is building
up a bullying treasury surplus,
Idaho exhibits a marked contrast
to the spectacle it presented a few
years ago when the 6. o. p. was
in the hey-day of its power and
glory in this state.

CONFIDENCE IN HUMP.
Hon. Louis Smith Expresses
Faith In the Robbins
nio%r,Nf

DiSSs tOSs
Hon. Louis Smith was visitor
from the Hump district last week
and is as emphatic as ever in his
belief that the district and the
mines therein are all that was ever
claimed for them. The properties
on which work is being done are
all showing up fine and the own
ers are developing fine bodies Of
ore.
Mr.. Smith says the fact that
the district has.beep given black
eye has had the effect Of wedding
out all the wildcat operators, and
leaving only the conservative and
legitimate mining men who have
thoroughly tested and proved the
values Of the mines in that section
the boom fever is over, but there is
now more work being done than at
any time in the history Of the camp.
by next spring there will be five
stamp mills pounding on ore from
the mines in that camp. None OF
these are of very large capacity,
but sufficient to prove up the mines
upon which they are installed and
to handle the ore in sight. Al
the mines are further developed
additional stamps will be added
The properties installing stamps ar
the Fortune, Jumbo, Wiseboy
Cracker Jack, Big Buffalo ant
Vesuvivus. The Jumbo and We
suvivus stamps have been drop
ping for some time and hav
turned out good quantity of bul

the ore lie free milling, with som
concentrates. The latter will b
hauled out to the railroad a

this property early next year.

Notes Of a Week.

H. E. Heppner was up from the
Crandall bar this week and made a
payment on Tuesday to VIM. Gran
dali and Harry Cone for the owners,
this being the first payment on the
property. The ground is owned by
the "H. E. p. Mining Company
Portland corporation, and since
they have been in charge they have
installed a gasoline pump and
hoist, and started a 2OO-foot tunnel
through the bedrock to reach the
old river channel. The tunnel is
now in 100 feet. Considerable
dirt has been washed lately, and
manager Heppner states that he
considers it the best placer PROPOSE
ton he has ever handled, and his
experience ought to carry weight,
for he has mined from Alaska to
Moose creek in this county. He is
of the opinion that there is great
future in store for placer mining on
the Salmon and that the river bars
will produce more money hereafter
than was taken out in the palmy
days of the sixties.

gineer OF Spokane, was on Salmon
