Arrest at PaarI.

Deputy Sheriff Payne went to
the Lincoln mine at Pearl yester-
day, and placed under arrest Thom-
as Fl. Hart on the charge of selling
liquor without a county license.
Hart was taken before Judge Knox,
but the case was postponed until
the 18th at the request of the de-
tendant. 1t appears that the Lincoln
mine had liquor in its commissary
department, and Hart was the
salesman. Manager Kennedy is
absent, and the case was postponed
until his return. Sheriff Nichols
is going after the liquor peddlers
who have no license, and other ar
rests will probably follow. The
fine for such an offense is 5000

omize on coal by using slabs and
Mormon hickory. Three saloon
keepers were arrested for selling
liquor to minors. The charge
against J. R. Banks was with
drawn after investigation. Charles

False Prophets.

Says the Nampa Record: 1T

by the wiseacres of the city, that
three months would be long time
for it to exist; however, seven
months have passed during that
time, and the Record still stays
and every day adds several ne"
subscribers, in fact the Record has
come to be considered household
necessity in Nampa.'
That is the way it goes. You
can't tell a thing about the pre-
dictions of the wiseacres. They
gave us six months and we have
been here IS years.

vorably.
The matter was balloted upon
last evening at a meeting held for
that purpose at the hall of the To-
cal lodge of this place by repre-
sentatives from lodges from all

The meeting was taken up in
regular order, and after the COM

explained that his mission here
aud through other states was the

vote an elaborate banquet wa:
served and speeches were indulget
in until after the hour of midnight
The attendance was splendid, ant
all enjoyable evening was spent.
The state Of Idaho has 1000 Re'

time they have labored with thi
goal in view, and all are rejoicing
