Perce have apparently abandoned
their purpose of carrying the matter
into the supreme court and if the
case comes up will be in the nature
of friendly suit to be brought by
the Clearwater people themselves.
A decision from the supreme court
will be valuable in that it will deter
mine tie legality of the acts to he
performed by thelcounty government
in the future, and, if the opinion is
favorable, will set at rest the ques-
tions that will arise. Judge Blake,
who is the counsel for the Clearwater
people, is of the opinion that the
case will come up at the May term
of the supreme co urt.
He says the appointment Of the
county officers by Governor Hunt
was received with satisfaction by the
people up there and that the selec-
tions were of men who would capa-

MAY Grant Rate.

Passenger officials of eastern roads
met in Chicago last Wednesday to
settle upon arrangements for the en-
campment of the Grand Army of the
Republic, which is to be held at
Cleveland in September. They will
vote upon a proposition to grant a
rate of cent mile for the union
1t is known that the officials of
some roads are not favorable to the
granting of such rate, holding that
all available equipment can be used
more advantageously in the Pan
American exposition traffic. 1t is
regarded as almost certain, however,
that the precedent set several years
ago will cause the roads to grant the

The Day Very Fittingly Observed in
This City.
FINE PROGRAMS RENDERED
Large Attendance at All of the Churches
Decorations Very Appropriate.

Last Sunday, Easter, was very
fittingly observed in Weiser churches
and homes. Although the day was
bright and quite cold large audiences
attended all the churches The chill
dren especially were made happy
with their Easter eggs and other
greetings prepared for them by
parents and friends. At the differ
ent churches there were exercises of
such character as to impress the
visitors and to make the day sacred.
A considerable portion of the exer-
cises were by the children. The
churches were very pleasantly and
appropriately decorated. Those who
attended were rewarded by listening
to splendid music and fine sermons
The services at the different churches
were as follows:

Involving the Greatest Combination of
Capital Known In History.

Reports that huge railroad combl-
nations are in process of formation
is the topic of the day. Detailed
statments concerning the plan already
published, looking to the combina-
tion of all the great railway systems
of the United States under the con-
troll of the company were given,
but as general thing prominent
railroad officials and bankers declined
to discuss the matter. According to
all accounts the enterprise involved
the greatest combination of capital
known in the history of finance. 1t
was said the company would be
formed under the laws of New Jersey
for the purpose of conducting gen.
eral freight and transportation busi-
ness throughout the United States
that the company would hold con-
trolling interest in all the great rail-
way systems and that the manage
ment of the roads would be vested
in the controlling company.
According to the proposition each
road would preserve its identity and
corporate existence, but the new
company would control the affairs OF
all. By this policy, it was asserted,
large sums of money could be saved
as a result of economies in manage
ment and the stoppage of rate cut
ting.

II. Shelley Sutton. Idaho's hoy poet
and literary star, has thus farin his ca
reer made serious mistake. He has
written simply for the pleasure he has
derived from lhe exercise of his talents.
Writing, with him, is not a task but q
pleasureabe recreation. He seems to
have had no thought of the commercial
value of his productions. In fact he
does not seem to know that he possesses
talents OF very high order, therefore has
not made the best use OF them from n
money point of view. Had he pursued
the right course he would now have a
national, or worldwide reputation.
His productions have been almost wasted
for the reason that they have found their
way into the local press. This can give
him neither the wide fame nor the finan-
cial reward that the excellence of his pro-
ductions entitle him to. But few, If any,
of America S literary stars have excelled
him at the same age. III Shelly Will
write for some first-class magazine his
fame will very soon be of the expansive
kind, and he will receive for his produc-
tions a money reward commensurate
with their literary value.
The above, taken from the Idaho
World, is most heartily indorsed by

This summer will probably show
great activity in mining here, as par
ties who are willing to invest in pros
poets where there is good reason to
believe that they will develop into
mines, can find good field here; and
all that is necessary to convince
them of this, is visit to the above
mentioned mines and a careful eX-
animation of the surface indications
and then to look over the hills in
nearly every direction to find similar
indications, great many places of
which, samples will give assays of

ues in gold, but that generally the
value will increase with depth, as for

Interesting Items from One of Wash
ington COunty's Best Camps.
RUTHBURG AND VICINITY
The Camp has Passed the Speculative Stage
and is Now Sure Enough Producer

The conditions of this camp have
improved considerably during the
past winter, considering the small
amount of work that has been done.
Nearly every place that work has
been prosecuted on the ledge a great
improvement is manifest, especially
in what is known as the Black Belt.
This lies ut the western part of the
district and runs through where the
old town of Ruthburg was located
and is bounded on the east by the
Great Conglomerate Dyke, which is
a mixture of broken porphyry and
red carbonate Of lime, and all
cemented together. In some places
this dyke is from 200 to 400 feet
wide and runs in a nOrtheasterly
direction, and is traceable for several
miles to the northeast.
The so called Black Belt, as to
formation, is composed of q green
porphyry and this is made black by
the presence of black oxide of man
ganese, some places only in the cleave-
ages, and in others the porphyry has
been decomposed and the manganese
is assimilated with the rocks.
To the west of this is a belt OF
lime shale and from this runs dykes
of lime carbonate through the por-
phyry. A great deal of this is
decomposed or calcined so as to APP
pear in the form of clay, and it is in
the contacts between these lime dykes
and the porphyry that the ore occurs.
This particular district is that ir
which the work was done some 10 o.
Is years ago, but as the workings
reached the water level the ores be
came more base and contained to-
much lead to be treated by the mil
erected to treat the surface ores, ant
the mines were abandoned. 1t ha
been known since then as silver
lead district, but development thi
winter has shown great falling OF
in lead and large gain in copper il
some places, especially in the Look
out, which is being worked by H
Emmerson & Co. under bond fror
Mossman & Co. of Salubria, owners
Mr.. Emmerson has been working
email force of men all winter, drivin
the old tunnel ahead, and has open
ed some good ore, as can be seen on tn
dump. Some % or 40 sacks of or
are the result of crossing the ledge
Some of this runs about $50 ounce
silver and 25 per cent copper with
small per cent of lead; also a large
quantity of lower grade ore. AS th
cross cut is extended other bodle
are expected. In places this wor
is very difficult, and necessarily SLOW
on account of the water courses whlC
are mostly fine broken rocks an
sand mixed with clay. Large quantl'
of water makes it difficult to G
through until after the water h'
drained out. They are working
such place at present and judgir
