Jackson, Miss.-On the goth OF
September the State officials moved
from the old building into their new
home. Then there was 200 tons OF
coal stored away in the bins In the
basement. Now that coal is practical
ly all gone, consumption OF 100 tons
a month, or an expense of practically
s40O. The weather has been very
mild up to the last few days, -and the
steam has not been turned on more
than four weeks out of the eight.
During the winter the consumption OF
coal will probably am cunt to more
than 100 tons per month. The officers
estimate, that the coal alone will cost
$4,000 a year, for the boilers, must be
going winter and summer. as they
supply steam for the lighting plant
and to run the elevators.

The number of convicts who want
pardons now is something fearful.

that something like an average of
twenty petitions for pardon day are
received at the Governors Office.
There is now pile of them and every
mail brings more. The Governor will
pardon very few convicts before going

Enthusiastic Mitchell.

Representative Perry w. Mitch
ell Of Idaho county is one Of the
most enthusiastic OF new members.
He states. that his county has
grown moro grain, shipped more
cattle and hogs, and opened up
more mines during the past year
than in any IL months in its his
tory. From Kooskia alone more
than 100, 600 bushels Of grain was
marketed, and upwards Of 800 cars
Of hogs were shipped out Of the
county. Land values have in
creased % per cent and new settlers
are coming in large numbers. In
some instances the yield Of barley
and oats ran a. high - 80 and sc
bushels TO the acre, while the aver.
age yield Of fax was IL bushels.
Four dividend-psying mines, said
Mr.. Mitchell, have been developed
in Ziegel creek and Buffalo Hump
and one property in Elk City is re-
ported to have uncovered 81 ,0OO,.
600 worth of ore. The assessed
valuation Of the county last yeal

expected that it will exceed 50, 0O0,'

Why should legislators accept
special favors from corporations!
They are paid for their services
while at the state capital, and their
mileage more than covers their
travelling expenses upon the rail-
roads. Corporations can mark them
out for special favoritism only be-
cause they expect substan tial re-
turn therefor. The merchant does
not inform the members of the leg
i stature as soon as they assemble
that they may enter his store and
carry away his goods without
paying for them, probably because
he is not looking for special legis-
lation that will advance his inter-
ests, as is too frequently the case
with railroad, telephone and tele.
graph corporations The legislator
who accepts their favors implies by
his action that he will not be I'M
grateful when called upon to vote
for or against measure affecting
their business. Capital News.

BODIES NOT BROUCHTOUT
Branham and Payne Wrapped
in Heavy Canvas.

Enos Smith, who left here Mon
day, the 22nd, for Thunder Mount
ain to bring out the bodies of Frank
Branham and Frank Payne, killed
in the snowslide on Government
creek, returned yesterday about
noon, have left the scene of the
tragedy Sunday morning. On
account of the deep snow and the
great danger from snowslides no
attempt was made to bring the
bodies out. They were wrapped
in heavy canvas and buried in
the snow where they were killed.
He stated that the snow there is
six feet deep, about two feet of
fresh snow fell while he was there,
and it will probably be some time
before the bodies can safely be
brought out. The bodies are
frozen solid, and are in a splendid
state of preservation.-Salmon

ECHOES FROM FOOT HILLS.
Farmers Began Flowing Too
Early-PersOnal


Toto, Idaho, Jan. 14.-Farmers
in our district resumed blowing in
the early part of last week, but on
Friday morning they were notified
to discontinue by q light fall of
snow. Farmers ought to know
better than to break the dread
slumber of winter by inaugurating
things that bespeak April and May.
Mae Williams ia in Walla Walla
where she will spend few weeks
with relatives. She will then 60 to
Portland where she will enter one
of the high-grade business colleges
of that place.
F. A.. Long has rented the Henry
Telcher ranch and will begin fen
cling as soon as the weather will
permit.
DIR. Bibby has been called several
times during the past week to give
medical aid to Ella Patterson who
is quite sick at the residence OF
Jim Addison.
Miss Maggie Telcher is visiting
at the home of Frank Brown in Mt.
Idaho. Miss Telcher spent her va
cation at her home in this locality.
Dave Pugh is OUT from Thunder
Mountain spending vacation with
his "wife's relatives.
The literary society at the Jones
school house is a decided success.
At one of it's late meetings a 40
minute drama was rendered, dis
playing much ability in the anna
teur actors.
The home of Mrs. Telcher mar
rowly escaped a fire last Friday
evening. A lamp was overturned,
breaking it into fragments, but for
tunately the flame was put out by
the falling of the lamp before il
struck the floor and calamity wal
averted.
Mrs. Telcher is talking Of having
her residence in Grangeville ar
ranged for occupation.
Mr.. Clark, who is spending the
winter with John Long, is sick and
has been unable to get out for
nearly week.
Mr.. Davis, a prominent stock
man of White Bird, has been in
this neighborhood during the past
week.

Buffalo Hump has gone through

Buffalo Hump has gone through
much the same experience that
Thunder Mountain is now UNDER
going, but the former district was
subject to more universal condem-
nation after the first wild excite
ment than the latter. Buffalo
Hump, after the fever subsidized,
was deserted by all but a few whose
faith was not chilled by the cold
wave that succeeded the high fever
heat. Capitalists and prospectors
alike condemned the country in
emphatic terms, saying it was no
good, never was and never would
be. But q revival has come. 1t
is not a wild revival, based on fab
rication and iridescent dreams, but
is q good, substantial, golden yell
low awakening, without the glare
and glitter Of yalueless things.

The election of w. B. Hepburn
as United States senator for Idaho,
while not unexpected, will not
arouse much enthusiasm in the re-
publican hearts of this state. Mr..
Heyburn's principal interests and
closest friends are in another state,
and no matter where he claims his
residence, or how much he tries to
serve the people who elected him,
his actions are bound to be more or
less influenced by his Spokane as
sociates.

THUNDER MOUNTAIN MAIL.
Service Is Probably the Worst
in the State.

in the State.
The mail service to Roosevelt,
in Thunder Mountain, is just about
as bad as it can be and is without
doubt the worst in the state. The
first thing you hear from anyone
from that camp is, sit wouldn't
be so bad if we, could only get our
mail" l.. A. Wayland, in writ
ing for a few mining blanks, says:
ROOSEVELT, Idaho, Dec. 26.-
Editor Free Press: Please send
100 blanks for amended quartz To-
cation; register them, as it seems
that is the only way we can get
any packages, and possibly we will
get them in due time. We hardly
know what a newspaper looks like;
none has been received in camp
since the LIST of November except a
few of the Boise Statesman sent to
the postmaster to sell.
All property in the camp that is
being developed looks we'll. Law
renee and Fuller made a good
strike on another piece of property
recently. Bull aud Dan Cotter
have struck a good body of ore in
the Gem, adjoining the Sunnyside
and Wisdom.
Everyone in the camp seems to
be in good spirits. We had a
Christmas tree and entertainment;
had good time, with 125 or more
present, and among this number
being eight ladies. Miners style,
it lasted all night and all day.
Weather pleasant. Yours truly,
