ANOTHER PARDON.

Bank wrecker Gideon W. March
has been pardoned by Presiden,
Roosevelt. March wrecked the Key
stone Bank of Philadelphia; he was
= fugitive from justice for several
years, and though the bank was
wrecked in 1891, March was not
landed in the penitentiary until 1898,
under a sentence of 10 years, of
which he has served little over
four. The crime committed is one of
the worst that can be thought of.
To take human life even in passion
is horrible, bloody and brutal, but
what can be said of the pampered
william who sweeps away the savings
OF those who have toiled and
struggled to lay by. What hopes
does he crush? How many does he
bring from affluence to poverty?
How many does he drive to suicide,
when they see the fruits of years
wiped out2 What suffering does he
cause2 What orphans and widows
does he make and how many others
does he rob? Though his hands are
not red, yet what blood is indirectly
upon his SOUL He is a hideous
demon who piles woe on hundreds
that he may crafty his pampered
tastes. Far worse is he than the
slayer of single man In violence
This pardon will shock many Idaho
beyond expression.

The fees for recording of instru
ments in the county clerks Office in
1901 was 1912. 40. For the year
just closed the amount was 1886. 80,
a difference of $25 20 in favor OF
1901. That year was generally re-
garded as much more prosperous
one than 1902, but the above figures
do not show a very large falling off
in real estate transfers and other
matters requiring recording. There
was falling off in fees from the
district court, owing to the fact that
the regular fall session was adj
journed until January.

Col. John j. 'Dickey, general man

company, died at his home in Oma
ha on the 9th ult. Col. Dickey has
been identified with the company
from boyhood, and while the exact
time of his service is not known, vet
1t must cover nearly so years. He
was a most efficient officer and an
agreeable and lovable man and eau
ally popular in his business and go

hopes, and inspiration, calling for
increased efforts. The outlook is en-
couraging, and steady advance in

tending the usual greeting, for a
happy new year, the Signal feels
it not an idle solutation.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

| WlIu tHlS Jne urSI issue OF the New
Year the Signal sends its best wishes
to all for happy and prosperous
season. The year past has in many
ways been a kindly one; good crops
have rewarded the toll of the farmer,
and the fiocks and herds show gen
erous increase. The general health
OF the community has been good, and
no pestilential diseases have afflicted
our homes.
The school attendance as shown
by the records has been regular and
increasing. The steady advancement
socially is marked by the erection of
new houses for worship, and gen
eral disposition to beautify and make
home surroundings more attractive.
AS people, we have the benefits that
come to land favored by nature
with the best climate, fertile soil, and
other natural resources of the most
diversified character. And there ia
a reasonable hope that the coming
year will bring about the develop
ment OF some of the factors necessary
TO make our agricultural and stock
interests more remunerative by the
establishment of home markets, thus
avoiding a ruinous competition with
more favored localities, as regards
transportation. While many, in fact
all, OF our best mining districts, have
been non-productive, and conditions
very discouraging, still there is no
lack of faith in their actual worth
and future productiveness. When
the present artificial and unjust con-
oitions are overcome. The extern
sion OF the Pacific and Idaho North.
ern is practically an assured fact, and
with this will come the development
OF the timber industry, a visible
source of wealth but unavailable in
the past for lack of transportation
facilities. The mining and agricul.
tural Industries dependent on the
water supply from mountain snow
are assured of an abundance; the
snow fall has been heavy in the
mountain regions, and, having come
early, will pack, waiting for the soft
breath of the south wind to release
1t and send it trickling down the
valleys, to find its sparkling wsy
over fertile fields and through beauti.

SENATORIAL MIXUP.

A Washington, D. c., paper has
an article which indicates that ma
tlonal republicans are in favor OF
Geo. l.. Shoup for senator. The
Washington paper, In speaking of
the Idaho situation, says:
"Among senators who are
especially concerned that there be no
interference with the tariff as now
framed there are several who are
giving their ideas on the contest
more than passing attention.
"This is explained in a great
measure by the fact that of the cand-
idates one is alleged to be the author
of the tariff plank in the republican
state platform, which was so objec-
tionable to the president and to many
republican leaders, owing to its
striking similarity to the clause in
the Kansas City platform. The part
of the plank most severely criticised
is as follows:
" I'VE therefore favor a revision
of the tariff without unreasonable
delay, which Will place upon the
free list every article and product
controlled by any monopoly and such
other articles and products as are
beyond the need of protection.
at is known that these leaders
view with concern the possibility that
Idaho may send 10 the senate man
who may not be sound on protec-
ton"
The article mentions W. E. Borah
OF Boise as a senatorial candidate,
but offers the objection that Borah
is a comparatively late convert to
republicism.
W. b. Hepburn is mentioned as
an aspirant, but he is said to reside
and maintain an office in Spokane.
Judge d. w. Standrod of Pocatello,
national committeeman, is said to
have considerable strength as candi-
date for the senate. The article con-
cludes with this paragraph:
"The greatest interest centers
about the candidacy of former Sena-
tor Geo. [. Shoup, and it is doubtful
If there is republican in the senate
who does not wish for his return.
HIS many qualification for the place
are not questioned in the state, and
are fully understood here, which was
the scene of his labors for Idaho for
several years. Among the leaders
of the party in the senate and house
former Senator Shoup numbers
great many personal friends. He
has always been stauneh pro tee
