his progeny, but a large portion OF
them were and are accomplished fenc-

Newmarket June sales Baron de Hark-
anyi, laying out $1,000, bought him for
his -Abony stud, where Timothy stayed
for some seasons, but was at last sold

LewiStOn-H Huntington
Line To BE Built
Reported That N. P. has Control
of P. 6 |. N and Huntington
Line Must be Built by U. p. as
Measure of Protection.

A special to the Boise States
man from Huntington says that
upon undoubted authority the
cause that led to the taking up
by the Short Line of the rail-
way project down the Snake
from this place to Lewiston is
that the Hill interest had secur-
ed control of the Pacific & Idaho
Northern and intended to extend
the latter to Grangeville to con-
meet with the Northern Pacific,
without delay. The extension is
to be made on surveys made this
year.
It appears there was a much
sharper contest for control of the
P. & I. N. than was supposed.
1t ended with the line landed
firmly in hands Of friends of Hill.
When this became a fixed fact
the Hartman interests determ-
ined to forestall Hill by building
rapidly down the Snake. Two
large engineering crews are now
on the way to the canyon through
which the river flows a portion
of the way. They will go
through the canyon on RATS,
using a camera with which to
gather data. They will work
from rafts at places where they
cannot get a footing on shore
and every foot of the line will be
photographed. There are now
Sc men at work between Hunt
inton and the canyon.

Democratic State Convention Set

The democratic state central
committeeman met at Boise
Monday and decided to hold the
state convention at Coeur
d'Alene City on Monday, August
9th, at which time 344 delegates
will meet to select the state
ticket. The apportionment of
delegates was fixed at one for
every hundred votes cast two
years ago for Heitfeld for gov
ernor, which gives the northern
counties strong representation.
Because of the influx of people
into the Twin Falls section Cas-
sia county was given two dele
gates more than its regular ap-
portionment. At the meeting the
Boise Capital News was severely
scored for its conduct toward the
ticket IN the last campaign and
Henry Huff, a Norman who re-
fused to aid in the campaign two
years ago, was denied a place on
the committee. The committee
also endorsed Senator Fred Du-
bois' conduct as U. S. senator
and passed resolutions demand
ing the prompt punishment of
the persons guilty of the infam-
GUS murder of ex-governor Frank
Steunenberg and complete vim
diction of the law.
Boise was the only contestant
for the honor of entertaining the
state convention but Coeur
d'Alene City won out by vote
of IA to IL.

Money In Horses.


Last Saturday G. B. Knorr sold
a young horse to some gentlemen
living on the Clearwater river,
for $3.50 and the sale naturally
brought up the question, does
horse raising pay? Mr.. Knorr
informed us that during the past
three months he had sold IL
head of young horses and for the
whole number had received all
most $1700 or a little over $3.50
each. Of course the horses were
well bred and had been properly
cared for but he finds a ready
market at good prices for the
right kind of horses. It costs no
more to raise good horse than
to raise a poor one and the de-
mand for such is steadily increas-
ing. Many farmers of this coun-
try are giving more attention to
raising horses and find it a pro-
fitable industry. There is no
danger of overstocking the mark
ct for years to come at the same
time prices are steadily in
creasing. Free Press.

TO MOVE
 TO HUNTER

Messrs. w. B. Ballou and William Mann go out to Ruby creek today to take apart the pipe of the Ruby ha- draulic works and get the plant in shape to be moved to Hunter The material will not be placed on Hunter till after the season is further advanced and the trail is at its best.
 The lift will probably be set up on discovery, and it is expected to have it in operation by the middle of June. It is proposed to work out discovery and Nos. l, ? and 3 below, which will take several years to accomplish.
 The works will start up with 1000 feet of Hume, 30 inches wide on the bottom and P inches deep, and over 5000 feet of hydraulic pipe. The plant ought to be adequate to the work in prospect.
 The Hunter creek ground has steadily paid better than wages under the old methods. The hydraulic plant, under Mir. Ballou's management, handled the dirt satisfactorily on Ruby creek. Mir. Mann is thoroughly familiar with the Hunter property.
 Every condition seems favorable for a splendid success in the Hunter ven- ture, and it is altogether likely that next summer will mark the beginning of long period of increased production on this old and nearby creek, which the new wagon road has placed in easy ac- cess of machinery and all kinds of supplies.

MAIL MEN'S
 HARD TRIP

Carrier Ed Biederman, accompanied by Carlo Jackett and Charley Pitka arrived with the up-bouhd mail today at noon. They left Panama Sunday.
 Carrier Biederman reports hard trips both ways.
 He left here last Wednesday and went all the way in small boat The river was running full of ice. At The Rapids the water was so low hundreds of rocks were above water and the boat, fast in the ice, bumped through them in great danger of being wrecked Below The Rapids, the boat being encountered with ice, four of the dogs were set ashore to tighten the load. In running along the waters edge two of them broke through the ice and one drowned before the boat could reach him. The other clung to cake of ice and was rescued.
 OH tlle IetuiH liip tiie sleiSi DIohe through the ice below Morelock creek. Pitka was in front, Jackett in the sleigh and Biederman at the handle bars. As the ice gave way Biederman jumped on she hind part of the sled, but it went down and let him into three feet of water. The sled was pulled out so promptly that the mail did not get damaged. A fire was built to keep Biederman from freezing.
 The mail had not arrived from up river at o'clock today. Unless it gets in Biederman will continue on the up run tomorrow.
 Mail will depart up and down each each Thursday during the winter.

PAPERS
 FROM NOME

In the mail which arrived from Panama at noon today were copies of the Nome Gold Digger of Oct. 10, II and 12.
 Strange enough, they were the latest papers giving news of the outside world to be received in this camp. When the fact is considered that Fairbanks, with two splendid papers printing the tele- graphic dispatches, is only l30 miles away, it makes stranger still the fact that direct mail service is to this day denied between the great center of the Panama valley and the most important settlement on the American Yukon open, as the two points are, to overland travel the year around. But the lines of red tape have been stretched other wise, and otherwise, apparently, they must remain until they rot away.
 Among the almost ludicrous but wholly reasonable conclusions in an ar ticle in the Gold Digger of Oct. Il is one that $. J. Marsh-who mushed to the Arctic ocean and back last summer must either starve to death or depend on the Eskimo for sustenance during the winter just closed in. Mir. Marsh went ouerland by way of Fort Yukon to the border of the frozen ocean, expect ing to connect with supplies which were to be landed for him by the steamer Robert Dollar at Point Beecher, some hundreds of miles eastward of Point Barrow. On reaching Point Beecher and finding no supplies, Mir. Marsh very promptly mushed back over the five hundred miles to Fort Yukon, went by steamer to Fairbanks, and is now pre- pairing to stampede to the new Chandlar diggings, four hundred miles away, where he will act as United States com missioner and recorder. Such is life in the far north.
 The Robert Dollar failed to go further than Point Barrow, and Mir. Marshs supplies were sent back to Seattle, with the supposition, may be, that the man would wolf it' around the shores of the Arctic ocean till he died or got shanghaied by some short-handed whaler.
