2O0O Population.

A special from Twin Falls to the
Boise Capital News, says:
This remarkable town in the des-
ert, 80 miles from the railroad, start
ed last October, now has nearly 1000
inhabitants. The two miles of side
walk are thronged with people now
here in attendance at the state land
sale of five sections which began an
hour ago. The lands are bringing
from S25 to $50 per acre and are
from eight to 10 miles from town.
The larger part of the crowd is here
to attend the opening of the last of
the Carey land in Cassia county,
amounting to 10000 acres.
Boise and Payette valleys have
turned out a large number of land
seekers, and next in force are the Ne
braskans who come from the fertile
fields along the Missouri river as well
as the interior plateau and far west
ern sand hills. N
'The settlers who previously pur-
chased land have been pouring in by
way of Shoshone at the average rate
of over 100 per day during the past
week, and the crowd from now on
will rapidly increase in volume. The
Short Line is bringing in household
goods. stock and farming implements
by the trainload every day"

AMERICANS TOO SLOW.
+. J. Hagenbarth Sharply Arraigns
Coast Stock Growers.


F.. ]. Hagenbarth, president of the
NATIONAL Livestock association, has
been a guest at the Palace hotel for
several days, awaiting a chance to go
to Los Angeles, where private busi-
ness affairs await his coming, says
the San Francisco Call.
While discussing the livestock sit
uation in the West yesterday, Hagen
barth expressed surprise over the
fact that the coast stockmen were
not showing more interest in the con-
sumption of meat in the Philippines,
the supply for which the government
is getting from South America and
Australia. Upon this subject he said:
81 cannot understand why your
cattlemen and wholesalers do not
unite in an effort to get this trade
for the coast instead of letting for
eign markets derive the magnificent
revenues the annual trade provides
for them. Our government, through
its army commissary department, is
advertising for bids for supplying 50,-
600 head of beeves and 5000 sheep
that will be opened on July 1. 1t is
almost certain that these contracts
will be awarded to Australian and
South American firms, as before, in
stead of to cattle men on this coast.
When you consider that the beeves
bring about $40 a head and sheep
about $3.50 it is easy to imagine
what loss it means to the Pacific
coast industry, amounting to several
millions of dollars.
"If the cattle men and the big beef
contractors on this coast would only
unite there is no doubt that they
could divert this trade to themselves,
where it rightfully belongs. San
Francisco, with its ample facilities,
could handle the bulk of the supplies
and Seattle and Portland could also
get a share of it. From what 1 have
observed your cattle men are too
slow"

WANT THE OPIUM BAN LIFTED.
Cinnamon Agree TO Discriminate
Against the Whites.

At a meeting of the Chinese resi-
dents Of the city, held last night, the
recently adopted opium ordinance
was discussed, and it was decided to
try to induce the authorities to al
low smoking among the Cinnamon.
Jim Town was appointed as com
mittee of one to have the campaign
in charge, and this morning he called
upon City Attorney Carter and en-
deavOred to make that official "A
proposition from the Cinnamon. Ac-
cording to him the Celestials here
viii agree not to allow smoking by
them If they will be allowed to use
II themselves Also, he said that All
Lee and Hui Nam, the two Cinnamon
now in jail for running opium joints
are considered as bad men and are
not countenanced by the other Chi
namen here
II Jim Towns statement is true, n
Chinaman without opium cannot live.
But when questioned by the city at
torney as TO whether he used It him
self or not, Jim was wary and did
not answer. He was willing to say,
however that quite a number of his
countrymen here are addicted to the
practice. According to Jim, the
Cinnamon would be willing to suf-
fer almost any penalty, even to con-
fiscation of property or death, for
harboring white opium users, If only
they will again be allowed the right
to smoke. He even went further and
threatened to bring suit against the
city If they were not allowed to do
so.
No encouragement was given by
City Attorney Carter, who had no
sympathy with the Mongolian weak
ness, and the Cinnamon were told it
was their best plan to obey the law.
The threat of suit against the city
was not taken seriously.
