The following is taken from the
Montpelier Examiner, the leading
democratic newspaper OF southeast
Idaho. 1t shows the general gloom
and encouragement that perVades
the democracy of Idaho:
The Examiner admires grit and
nerve, no matter whers it may be
found, if there is the slightest
grounds for its exhi 5ition. But the
gall of Chairman Jackson in claim
ing that the democratic state ticket
has even semblance of a chance
of winning, is past all Understand
ing. Let us see where the votes
will come from that Jackson is fl
CURING on. First he surely cannon
expect any msjorities in Bear Lake
Bannock, Oneida, Fremont, Bing-
ham or Cassia counties. He also
has 1000 republican majority to
overcome in Ada, 800 in Latah,
600 in Canyon, 700 in Nez Perez
and 500 in Shoshone.
The six Mormon counties named
above gave a republican majority
last election of over 300. This
will be increased this year to 5000,
/ hen he must overcome $500
majority in the other counties
above mentioned. Here then is
500 to the good to be wiped Out
by the counties of Owyhee, Idaho
Washington, Custer, Lemhi, Blame
Boise, Gilmore and Lincoln. Sup.
pose the democrats make an ever
break in the counties that CAV,
5000 majority to the republicans
and this woul2 be a magniticen
record if they did, there would still
be 5000 majority to overcome il
the counties last named above. o
these the republicans will carr,
Lincoln sure, and they alread,
have an even break or better, b,
last election returns, i'll Washing
ton and Cassia. thus leaving fou
or five counties to give overwhelm
ing democratic votes to pull tn
: ticket through. The proposition
looks black, to say the least, TO
Democrat; success, and to on
mind Jackson is up against an i'm
possibility. Perhaps he is whist
ling to keep things looking rosy.

This is due to several significant

rs probable that the party came
through Lake county.
After reaching the summit and
crossing the pass north of Lake O'Del
the survey then takes an easy grade
westward to Salt Creek, then follows
down the stream. and the indications
now are that the party is figuring out
a way to come down Fall Creek to the
valley, avoiding the old military road
grant altogether. In fact, this old land
grant has been avoided all the way,
a new course being taken, which lays
entirely to the north of the grant.
The party has nothing to say re.
the work, or VINO they look to
for their pay, but the important fact
that they are making a railway survey
seems beyond dispute, and the indica-
tons are that it is not being done by
some company not now holding trans.

GOVERNOR
EVERY
MINUTE
Oregon Executive HAS the
Business All to Himself
These Days

Governor Chamberlain is engaged
for the present warm season acting
the part of governorr-in fact. He Is
performing all the numerous duties of
the chief executive of the state, from
receiving business and social callers
up to the performance of important
functions. In short his private secre.
tary, w. N. Gatens, is at the coast,
and for once the governor is the whole
thing. He runs the errands, receives
the applications for appointments,
files them for oficial action and as.
sures the urgent applicants that he
will do all in mis- power with His Tx
cellency to have the particular favor
granted. He no doubt sometimes feels
like saying what President Lincoln
did to an importunate office-seelNer:
Il will do what can for you, but, you
know, haven't very much influence
with this administration" But what
ever he does the caller goes away
happy and contented with having seen
the wheels of state go around
This morning, just for practice, the
governor appointed James p. Moffitt
special commissioner for the Lewis
and Clark fair and hopes soon to flr
out a commission for some delegate
to an irrigation congress or inter
state commercial convention. The
truth is Mr. Chamberlain is having
hard time playing at governor during
these dull dog days, but he proposes
to hold the job down, regardless of the
consequences.

The pass through which the survey

"Opens the Y. NJ. c. a. entertainment
course at the Illinois theatre Thurs
day evening of this week, received the
following notice. while playing at Gin
.cinnati in August, from the correspon-
dent of the Musical Courier:
This is still the season of outdoor
musical entertainment. furnished by
the concert bands of the country. One
of these which has been playing an en-
gagement at Coney island, has a par
ticularly fascinating interest. for it is
altogether composed of Indians-genu-
inc Indians too, no halfbreeds-and
most of them from different tribes, so
that they cannot understand each 9th
er in their native tongue and use Eng
lish as their common language. The
band is composed of so men under the
direction of DennisOn Wheelock, who
is himself a full blOoded Oneida Indi-
an. although he is a man of fine gen
cral and musical attainmentS and of
decided refinement and culture. One
might naturally expect a great deal of
noise from such band. but the fact is
that it commands a remarkable amount
of sentiment and delicacy. Its tone is
lovely and refined; the rythm almost
faultless and intonation perfect. The
members of the band follow the baton
of their leader instinctively, intelligent
~ and with a great deal of enthusiasm.
1t was remarkable with what fine ease
and expression the band played Wag
ner's Album Blat in which the leader,
too, displayed a strong classic cOncep-
ton. In rapid passages of other Sc
lectiOns the Indians played with verve
and intensity. Particularly grateful
was their rendition of the 'Zempa' over
ture. Mr.. Wheelock. director of this
Indian band, was connect
ed with the government schools for a
long time. For time he edited
paper at Green Bay. Wis, and after
wards became director of the military
band at Carlisle, Pa. aud also of the
Haskell band at Lawrence. Kan. Much
Of his musical education he received
from Father Cans a Catholic priest. at
Carlisle. The present organization is
known as the Haskell Military band.

them. You remember how, when tea
and coffee first appeared among us the
people fried the tea leaves and the cof

and pepper Well the people treated
their stamps as absurdly in 1854.
Some folks would put the stamps liz

Is the official notice that we issued TO
stop that practice"
The clerk took from the drawer a1
aged bulletin that said:
THE stamps upon all letters AMI
packages must be affixed on the out
thereon"
He put back this bulletin and drew
forth another one.
People would pin the stamps Gu
their letters instead Of cumming them"
he said. and when they did gum them
they would not do il right: hence this
second bulletin" and he read:
Persons posting letters should af
fix the requisite number of stamps pre-
vious to depositing them in the letter
receivers, as when posted in a damp
state the stamps are liable to rub of
and thereby cause the letters TO be
treated as unpaid. Do not pin on the
stamps

didn't understand. Think of tit
didn't understand the simple matter OF
sticking "A postage stamp on letter.
So we got out a third bulletin"

The simplest and most efectual
method OF causing stamps TO adhere
firmly is first TO moisten well the out
side of the stamps and afterwnrd the

to remove the gum"
