STEALING OF FIREWOOD.
Steps Will Be Taken to Break
Up the Practice.

Wood thieves are uncommonly
rampant this fall. 1t has been a
matter of general complaint for
several winters past that there are
too many people in this town who
never were known to buy stick OF
firewood, but make practice of
stealing from the wood piles Of
their neighbors. These depredations
have reached such point that
a protective association has been
formed among the business men,
and it has been decided to make a
private subscription and employ a
special Waterman to patrol the
several exposed wood piles for
mutual protection, with instruc-
tions to arrest the first prowler
caught at unreasonable hours in
the neighborhood of wood piles be-
longing to the members of the
association. The matter has gone
so far that patience has ceased to
be virtue, and it is expected that
during the coming winter there
will be some developments which
will expose these wood thieves to
the contumely of public opinion,
besides subjecting themselves to
the penalties and indignities of fine
and imprisonment at the hands of
the justice Of these precincts. So
daring have these thieves become
that last week a whole cord Of fire.
wood was stolen from the rear OF
the Sims 4 Crosby store, while
others have suffered to almost the
same extent. The finger Of suspi-
cion points to we'll known people as
the perpetrators-people in good
standingwho ought to know better
than to violate the moral law. The
close watch which will be kept will
doubtless bring these offenders be-
fore the bar of justice.

MARSHALL LAKE MINES,
q. }. Wright Brings News From
That Rich District.

G. j Wright, of the firm OF
Wright 4 Connors, is out from the
Marshall lake district and reports
that probably 25 men will winter
there and prosecute development
work upon their quartz claims.
Speaking Of the general outlook of
that section, Mr.. Wright said:
There is large extent of, ter
ritory outside of Bear creek, where
the best known quartz mines are
found. On Lake creek, for in
stance, which heads in Marshall
lake, some extensive placer mining
operations have been carried on for
several years in successful man.
ner. Still further down on trib-
ntary of Secesh creek. known as
Grouse creek, G. L. Hathaway, a
Denver mining magnate, bought
some placer ground some years ago
upon which he has spent many
thousands of dollars in equipment,
and this season made his prelim-
mary run with one small head of
water, cleaning up enough to sat
isfy him that he has one of the best
placer propositions in this county.
He put in a sawmill last summer
and cut more than 100000 feet of
lumber which he has used in the
of fumes and other
improvements on the property.
Next season he will operate with
three additional giants, the piping
for which is all in place. Alto
gether he has built nearly eight
miles of ditch as well as four miles
of wagon road. He gets his sup
plies from Council and keeps teams

TO ENLARGE
THE RESERVE
Over One Hundred Townships Of Land
Temporarily Withdrawn From
Settlement.
DESCRIPTION OF The BOUNDARIES
1t Will Almost Double the Present
Area Of the Bitter Root For
est Reserve.
DESCRIPTION OF The BOUNDARIES


From the Lewiston Tribune. Nov. 49,
The Lewiston land Office yester-
day received from the commissioner
of the general land Office news that
about 100 townships of land lying
south of the Bitter Root forest re-
serve had been temporarily with
drawn from settlement pending the
determination of the ACCESSIBILITY of
including said lands within the
limits of the Bitter Root reserve
About 20 townships of the land
withdrawn are located in the
Lewiston land district. The entire
tract is located in Idaho county
and the northern part of Boise
county, about 90 townships being
in the latter county. The noti-
fication sent by the commissioner
gives a technical description Of the
boundaries and Mr.. Joseph Malloy,
OF the local Office, last evening
obliged the Tribune with the follow
ing description of the boundaries,
citing natural or well known points:
"The northwest corner boundary
commences at point about three
miles east OF Mt. Idaho; thence runs
due east to the Bitter Root reserve
line to main Salmon river; thenc,
follows Salmon in easterly direction
to mouth Of Middle fork of the
Salmon river; thence in southwest
erly direction along the Middle
fork of the Salmon river until third
standard parallel (near head Of
Trout creek is intersected; thence
due west to township IA north,
range 1 east. (abput six miles east
of Crowford); thence due north "a
miles to Rapid creek; thence due
west six miles; thence north II
miles to point about one mile
northeast of Payette lake; thence
west six miles; thence due north so
miles to White Bird creek, along
the east side Of Salmon river, the
line paralleling about seven miles
from that stream; thence east six
miles; theme. north six miles to
place of beginning"
The notification sent to the local
office says in part: s'rhis temp
orary withdrawal, or any per-
manent reservation which may
follow, will not affect any bona fide
settlement or valid claim upon the
lands which properly initiated prioi
to the date hereof, and duly placed
on record within the statutory
period"
The proposed addition to the
Bitter Root reserve embraces the
mining districts of Warren, Mar
shall lake, Big creek, Thunder
Mountain, the Chamberlain basin
country and the entire South fork
OF the Salmon country. There are
about 100 townships in the present
reserve and it is therefore proposed
to nearly double the area. The
announcement comes unexpectedly
and will be surprise to the resi-
dents of the affected territory.

In the late election in this county
the socialist candidate for congress
polled 56 votes, the prohibition
candidate for the same Office polled
q votes, while the peoples party,
or middle-of-the-road populist can
didate secured only 5 votes. This
is the first time the socialists have
had ticket in the field in this
state, and judging by the vote of
this county they must have polled
several hundred votes in the state
at large. The vote of the prohibit
tionists shows falling off this
year, while the populist brethren
are simply fallen all to pieces.

The official election returns from
Nez Perce county show that Gov.
Hunt ran only AS votes behind the
rest of the democratic state ticket.
Gov. Hunt was bitterly opposed
by several persons of more or less
influence in Nez Perez county. and
the prediction was freely made
that his nomination would cost the
democratic ticket in that county
1000 votes. Gov. Hunt ran ahead
of his ticket in every county with
the sole exception of Nez Perez.
This, of course, did not help him
on the final count, but it shows
how people who ought to know
better let their prejudices run away
with their judgment on political
matters.

will not apply to lands reserved by
the general government.
And so we say again that the re-
publican officials of tine general
land Office were astute enough to
withhold the withdrawal of this
added domain until after election,
for il it had been announced one
week, or one day, before the late
election, it would have made a ma
terial difference in the vote cast for
the republican ticket in this county,
as well as in the other counties
parts Of which are included in this
infamous order.

SALE OF THE HIKE MINE.
BY Long" Thompson to the
Hathaway COmpanv.

Hathaway Company.
I. w. Thompson, well known
here as sLongo Thompson, has
sold his HIKE mine in Warren to
the Hathaway company which pur-
chased the Little Giant and started
the construction of the CONSOLIDATE
ed Junior tunnel in that camp.
Mr.. Thompson located the HIKE
II years ago and has driven 500
feet of tunnel upon the property
which taps the vein at depth of
800 feet. The vein itself is small.
running from four inches to four
feet in width, hut carrying the
high-g,ade gold ores for which
Warren is famous. The average
value of the HIKE ore is $41 per
ton. Mr.. Thompson will soon visit
his old home in Ohio which he has
not visited for many years.
1t is also reported that the Little
Giant, the old-time famous gold
producer owned by Geo. Riebold.
will shortly be started up again.
This mine has had many ups and
downs of late years, having passed
INTO the hands of several people
who became entangled in litigation.
But these differences have now
been adjusted, and it is to be hoped
that it will take on a new lease of
life and assume its old proportions
as the leading producer of that
camp. There is mill and electric
light plant upon this property, to-
gether with sawmill and ample
water power, and there is no rea-
son why it should not once again
enter the list of dividend payers
with economical management.
The Silver King mine is working
II men in development work, the
mill having shut down for the
winter.

The socialist movement in this
state was engineered by republican
money and was run as republican
annex all through the late cam
paign with the expectation that it
would draw votes from the demo-
Gratis. 1t is likely that the expec-
tation was realized, but the repub-
licans will find out that they are
sowing the wind and will, in due
time, reap the whirlwind. In the
next presidential election, for in
stance, the total socialist vote NAV
assume such proportions that it
may give the democrats a plurality
and thus wrest the state from re-
publican control. 1t is clear that
the socialists in this state are a
force to be reckoned with.

Old Idaho county still maintain

Old Idaho county still maintains
her proud pre-eminence as the ban
ner democratic county of the state.
Gov. Hunt received in this county
the handsome majority of 21O votes,
while the majorities and pluralities
given his colleagues on the ticket
were somewhat less. The magnifi-
cent maiorities given the demo-
cratic candidates on the county
ticket have never been surpassed.
Old Idaho county is safely demo-
cratic all along the line, and in the
next presidential campaign, when
the democrats come out of the
woods, she will roll up democratic
majorities that will surprise the
oldest inhabitant.

As to national characteristics in feet,

is narrow and long. The Spanish foot
is small and elegantly curved-thanks
to Its Moorish lood-corresponding to
the Castiiian's pride of being high In

Friday, the Sabbath of the Mosems,
when all true believers of the mascu-

church. their wives. sisters, and daugn-
ters resort to the cemeteries and wall
for the dead. but all their time is not
spent In weeping. and sorrow is not
the only emotion they display on these
occasions. They take with them
lunches and garlands of nowers and
decorate the graves of their relatives
and pray and weep over the dead for
a time. Then. when this pious duty Is
performed. they gather In little groups
and have good time gossiping about
the living.
Thus the day of mourning is very
