and their preservation Indefinitely has be-
come factor in the evolution Of q new con-
ception of burial. Sanitary reasons have
obtained to some extent to strengthen the
belief in cremation az o scientific method
OF body disposal.
AS an example of burial sentiment moth
ing has probably ever before occurred more
striking and suggestive than an incident
Just reported from Philadelphia. Two weeks
ago a couple of workmen at a large steel
plant were burned to death instantaneous1y
by being caught by fall of molten steel
In crucible which they were cleaning. The
bodies Of these men were transformed In
the twfnkIing Of an eye to gas and ashes
and became part of the enormous mass Of
$1,000 pounds of metal. 1t was probably
the most complete and the swiftest crema-
ton ever known.
The families OF the men expressed q wish
that the bodies be given interment. Re-
ligious motives were urged and the ques-
ton was pressed TO the point that the steel
company was forced to yield to prevent
labor troubles. Consequently the bottom
portion of the steel mass. weighing fully
5000 pounds. was with great difficulty cut
or from the enormous ingot, and this block
OF steel was yesterday given formal burial
in lieu OF the bodies which are diffused
chemically through the metal.

Snow and Sidewalks.

This mornings snow furry was a sharp
reminder of the approach of winter, by no
means welcome to the householders. 1t was
an early hint of what the next three months
may have in store for humanity in this part
Of the world. Some pessimists have been
for several weeks croaking about the fierce
winter that Is to come. They have pointed
to the dumb creatures and to the records in
proof. Others. more genial in their out
look. have averred that this is to be one OF
the mild winters that bring joy to those
with slender purses Truth Is, one
knows. The elements that make for pro-
Ionged cold and much snow or for mild airs
and little snow are now in the process OF
preparation, and unless this early snow
fall Is a sign they have given no hint Of
their character.
The Whit of snow will have served a good
end IL 1t directs official attention sharply to
the necessity of finding some means for the
cleaning of sidewalks during the winter.
As the law stands there Is no way to force
obstinate householders or nonresident own
ers to make paths in front OF their premises.
The city has no funds for such work. The
Commissioners. win perhaps bring the mat
ter directly to the attention of Congress to
secure either a statute that will Withstand
court tests or an appropriation for putting
the sidewalks in decent condition for traffic
throughout the winter.
1t will be disgraceful il the capital city is
permitted to present the spectacle OF snow
blocked sidewalks throughout the season.
The visitor asking for enlightenment on this
subject would be shocked to learn the truth.
that the municipality can neither require
the people to do the work nor pay for its
execution. This problem does not arise
elsewhere. and If there are obstacles in the
way of solution here they are surely not
too great to be removed. This matter
| should be one of the first taken up by the
District committees, in order that the Com
| mlssioners may be provided with money or
authority to clean the walks by the time the
| first heavy fall of snow occurs.

Less Chance of a Coal Strike.

As the time approaches for the December
convention OF the coal workers. to be held
at .Shamokin In December. evidences comes
TO hand of more peaceful sentiment on
the part OF the union miners and an optI-
mistic tone prevails throughout the an
thracite region Of Pennsylvania. Accord
ing to dispatches from the hard coal dis
trict there has been a decided modification
Of the strike talk. and indications suggest
that the Influences making for peace have
had their effect during the past six or
eight weeks. The business interests OF the
coal regions are virtually solid for the
avoidance OF strike, and they have
brought pressure TO bear upon the workers
IN a way TO persuade them of the folly of
interrupting the present pacific relations
between the miners and the operators,
which have resulted In an unexampled
prosperity for the former
a month ago The Star printed a series of
articles on the hard coal situation which
indicated the grave danger of determined
strike for the recognition of the union and
offered the suggestion that the outlook was
so serious that there was q strong proba-
bility OF peace because the country could
not endure the strain of another general
tie-up in this important industry. Subse-
duent events have apparently justified this
view. 1t may be a strategic move but
actions Of both sides. On the part of the
miners themselves there Is tendency to
lay less emphatic stress upon the require

ment that the union be recognized. the men
apparently feeling that they are today get

without enduring the pressure OF response
bility. On the other hand the operators
have begun to sell on the great coal piles
stored here and there in obscure parts OF
the country, indicating an optimistic View
OF the chances for next spring. These coal
piles represent the most powerful reserve
force of the mine owners. and IL they are
now being placed on the market, even in
advance of the December convention, there
must be a feeling that the men will adopt a
reasonable attitude.
The three-year agreement, which expires
in April. was not designed as mere make
shift, to tide over difficult situation. Its
very term indicated that it was framed by
the Presidents commission as a working
plan, and there was popular hope that 1t
would serve as a permanent basis for future
relations between the miners and the oper-
ators. 1t has worked satisfactorily in the
main. 1t has afforded practicable means
of adjusting the occasional differences. and
has with a very few exceptions prevented

1t is distinguishing trait of the human
race TO display reverent consideration for
the bodies of the dead. From the most an
cient times. past the historical line into the
days of the myths and tribal traditions. the

sacred duty on the part OF the living. The

ern philosophers have decried 1t to some

One of the largest sales closed up
through a real estate agency in Boise
for long time is the one that has
been consummated by w. p. Richards.
The property involved was the north
half of block 81 in the original town
site on Jefferson street between Ninth
and Tenth. The purchase was made
by Robert Noble, who secured the
property from Bishop Glorieux of the
Catholic church The consideration
was $4,000. The only building on
the half block is the residence of
Bishop Glorieux. Mr.. Noble will take
possession and will occupy the resi-
dence as soon as tho bishop can move
into the new residence he is having
built on Ninth and Hays streets. The
money received from the sale will be
applied toward the construction Of the
new cathedral which Is now in prog
ress of erection.-Boise Statesman.

200 bushels .of wheat and corn and
some flour were burned at the same
time.
When DR.. Whitman returned he
rebuilt the mill, procuring stone
burrs. which he obtained from some
granite quarries- on Snake river, now
owned by Ex-Governor NJ. c. Moore.
After the doctor was killed, in 1S47,
the mill was for a long time in a di-
lapidated condition, and at last the
stones we're taken to Fort Colville and
used in a flour mill on the Colville
river
After a time the mill was aban-
doned and the stones disappeared.
They had been seen many years ago,
but no one paid any attention to
them. Senator Ankeny afterwards
took much interest in them, and had
several men looking out for them. At
last Sheriff McMillen concluded that
they must be in the bed Of the river
near where the mill had stood, and
explored it.
He succeeded in finding six pieces.
which, when put together formed
about three-fourths of the lower
stone, with part of the iron frame
that held them together. It is said
htat they were cut by Whltman's own
hands. They were found last winter,
and Senator Ankeny presented them
to Whitman college.
Rev II. II. Spalding was the next
one to build a MILL and this was put
in operation in January 1910 at lap
wal, Idaho. He had considerable diff
ficulty in finding suitable stones, his
search having been for nearly a year,
as he begun in February, 1889.
The first quarry to which he sent
he found too much injured by fire.
The next one was too far away, on
Snake river. near the Tukannon; but
In November he found some near his
home. A man named Blair dressed
them and made the water wheel. One
Of these Is in the museum of the

LANDCASE

and from that time until 1893 is was

without any pretended or asserted
permanent title thereto.
The contention of the state is that
the United States unquestionably own
ed the land when it granted the
swamp land to the state of Oregon in
1860, and that the treaty made with
the Indians in 1864 did not in any
manner divest the state of its rights
thereto; that consequently the state
has a right to all lands within that
territory which can be shown to have
been swamp lands at the time the act
of congress of 1860 went into effect,
and that the officials Of the general
land office and the secretary Of the
interior had no power to allot any of
such lands to the Indians under the all
lotment laws of 1887 and 1891. The
decision of the general land office on
this question in 1903 said. among
other things
THE allotment to an Indian of
tract of land in a territory over which
the Indian right of occupancy has not
been extinguished, and the perfection
of such allotment has the effect Of
making his right of occupancy perpet-
ual and therefore. reserves the land
from the operation of the swamp
grant"
