Let's Dig Up.

The deputy game warden for
Idaho Countrywide not so very
long ago acted as attorney" for
the Joseph Plains settlers because
of his alleged influence" with
the former state land board, has
a new graft. He proposes to
throw that portion of Idaho now
outside Of forest reserves into an
exclusive game pasture. Time
was when a $50 fee caused this
gentleman to use his influence"
to prevent the confscation Of a
settlers home. If his "infiuenc'
with the national administration
is as terrific as he once claimed
it was in Idaho, Washington
county could spend $50 to good
advantage. This county should
be kept out of the proposed game
preserve at all hazards. -Weiset

wholesale for their hides, which
on the spot is converted into
buckskin for the eastern market.
My informant says he saw over
a ton of fresh deer hair in one
pile near these mems cabin, that
had been scraped off in the pro-
cess of tanning. AS the hair on
a deer will weigh about 5 or 10
pounds, one can easily compute
the number of deer slaughtered
by these vandals.
Another matter along the same
line has come to my knowledge
the past summer. An old pros
pector, man who has been in
the northwest for 40 years, and
has a good reputation for truth
and veracity, says last spring he
saw a forest" ranger exhibiting
25 sets of elk teeth. This ranger
is known to his friends as a Saint
and ranges along the Salmon be-
low Shoup. This old prospector
says the teeth were all secured
by the ranger while the latter
was ostensibly fighting forest
fires. He further states that as
a result of this rangers depre-
dations the elk in that immediate
vicinity are about eXterminated.
Speaking of the railway reports
over in his section Mr.. Bailey
said that Howard Pope, a civil
engineer of San Francisco, in the
Rockefeller interests, who passed
through this section with the
Stonebreaker outfit about a
month ago ostensibely on a hunt
ing trip, after first attempting
unsuccessfully to ascend the
Salmon river proceeded to Cham
berlain basin where he spent a
few days in hunting and fishing
after which the party proceeded
to Salmon City. From this point
Mr.. Pope inspected four differ
ent passes through the Bitter
Roots, including the Nez Perce;
made a flying trip to Butte,
Mont. and return. After which
the Stonebreaker party, except
Allen Stonebreaker and Mr.. Pope
returned with the stock to Sites,
, while the latter built boat 2S

which they provisioned, and un-
, der the guidance of Harry Gulicky

Railroad Gossip--W Wreck on the Salmon.

Robt G. Bailey, of Salmon
river, passed through Elk Tues
day on his way to Washington,
d. c., to attend the annual meet
ing of the Nonpareil Mining and
Developing Co., of which he is
manager. In conversation with
the News man Mr.. Bailey says:

three years, and during this time
have done enough work to dem
onstrate that we have a group Of

1000 feet of development work,
and have had some 200 assays
made on the ore as work pro-
gressed. The values run from
62 cents to SAL, and it would
seem from these that average
values will be anywhere from So
to $5.

ESpey Holds His Property.

Following is Judge Steele's de-
cision in the suit instituted by
Martin Hickman and R. W.
Brownell for an interest in the
South Fork No. 3 which claim
was based on an alleged oral
agreement constituting a grub
stake partnership.
"The plaintiffs bring this action
to be declared equal owners with
the defendant in the South Fork
No. 3 mining claim, situate in
the Elk City mining district in
Idaho county. Plaintiffs claim
that they had contract with
the defendant, whereby they all
agreed to prospect for mining
property, and that each was to
have a third interest in whatever
was found by either. The agree
ment is alleged to have been
oral, and made while the three
parties were working upon the
claims known as the South Fork
No. 1 mining claim, which lies
adjacent to the South Fork No. 3.
"The law requires that such
contracts shall be clearly shown
in order that they be declared and
enforced, and the evidence must
be such as to show to the court
clearly and satisfactorily that
such a contract was made before
the court is warranted in taking
an interest in the property from
the locator and giving it to an
other. The contract in the case
at bar is one that l feel partakes
of the properties and character
istics Of what is known as a
'grilbstake' contract, and in de-
terimining whether such a con-
tract was made, and it's terms,
the same rules should be applied.
"Since the oral argument of
this case, l have carefully ex-
arnined the briefs filed by the
respective counsel, and have
carefully examined and consider
ed every circumstance, and all
the matters shown by the evi-
dence, and as a result of such
examination | conclude that the
evidence fails to show the eXis-
tence Of such a contract with the
clearness and satisfaction which
should accompany such a finding
by a court, and that the prepond-
erance of the evidence shows
that the plaintiffs and defendant
never had a contract as the plain
tiffs claim.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs
call the courts attention to the
fact that if they, the plaintiffs.

they were to be equal owners II

tract was originally such as t

New York, June 20.-No n "a &c
into Il schools or meet a group of
children Oh the street without noticing
how large a number of them wear
Spcctacles. The proportion seems to
increase yearly, and there are many
more who ought to wear glasses. The
experience of one teacher might be du-
plicated by the score. She knew Alice
was inattentiye and she thought she
was unusually stupid. She said SO
to the principal and sent a note to
the mother, requesting that the chile
be helped at home if she wished her
to keep up with her class. Ore day
after Il blackboard explanation, the
teacher called upon the child and found
that she had not seen what had been
written. She was kept after school
and by dint Of much sympathetic ques-
tioning Miss c. found that Alice had
never been able to see what was put
on the board and that her head had
acled so often and S o hard that she
frequently failed to hear what was
said.
Such a condition may be caused by
lack Of proper food, but in our Ameri-
can homes it is usually due to the poor
quality of the artificial light. The vel
low, insufficient light Of the ordinary
kerosene lamp, with its smoky chin
ney, is about as bad for the eyes as
can be imagined. Ihe Pickering light
from a coal gas jet is but little better,
and even the electric light. brilliant
as it usually is, has an unsteadiness
due to variations in power, and a glare
peculiarly trying to the delicate nerves
Of sight. The comparatively new H.
luminant acetylene a produces as
nearly perfect al artificial light as has
yet been found. 1t gives a clear white,
unwayering light, very brilliant, yet
perfectly soft, and 81 nearly like the
rays Of the sun that even colors ap-
pear as in daylight.
Fortunately, a%cetylene is very easily
and cheaply produced, and the simple
apparatus uecessary a be purchased
and installed in any home at Il very
moderate cost, and the acetylene car
be piped to convenient points in the
house where a light is needed. 1t is

Acetylene is rapidly coming into
/ common use IN homes, churches
schools and institutions of all kinds,
and it is reasonable to expect that as
its use in the home Increases, there
will be fewer defective eyes, particu.
larly among children. Poor eyesight
and the many ills resulting therefron
will undoubtedly be much reduced 10y
