CHRONICLE SOLD.

Last Saturday afternoon, John K .
Jones, who for the past fourteen
months purported to own the St.
Anthony Chronicle, retired from
the unpleasant vicissitudes of news
paper life, and will HE away to
pastures more lucrative and climes
more. congerial.
The gentleman who now proposes
to own the Chronicle, hales from
Salt Lake City, and his plain name
is O. II. Barber. Mr.. Barber has
for many years been a travelling re-
preventative of the Western News
paper Union, of Salt Lake CITY,
but owing to poor health has retired
from business, and while resting
will amuse himself on the
Chronicle.
The Chronicle was forced onto
the people of this town about two
years ago, and the lack of patronage
and indifference shown the sheet
has forced a change of management
about every six months, and it has
at last fallen into the hands Of
gentleman who has wearied of the
many exciteinents of the Great CITY
OF the Saints and retires to this
remote corner of the earth to find
rest and quietude. We welcome
our brother and hope he will find
that which he seeks.

DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT.

The Advance warned the party
two years ago that if it followed the
Dubois policy that it would lose
the southeast by big majorities.
The result shows that this paper
was right, but they took the
peculiar notion of blaming the
Mormon church for it. They were
again warned that Dubois was lead
ing them to inevitable defeat, but
they have failed to heed the warn
ing, but will again seek to blame
the Mormon church for their own
blundering. They are again
warned that the people of Idaho are
too intelligent to be fooled by them
and their little scheme wont work.
When they get out of their fanatical
religious dream and get down to
sensible politics, where political
party belongs, they will be able to
accomplish something. The
Advance don't expect them to be
wise enough to see this though
until the people give them such an
overwhelming defeat that they will
come to their senses, and therefore
1t Is urging the people to take this
opportunity Of applying the punish
ment by electing the Republican
ticket by such majority that there
can be no mistake about the pur-
pose for which it has been done. =
