Minerals Cyanide Plant.

w. ]. Keough, superintendent of
the Minerva mine, E. J. Garvin
and wife, of Portland, came in from
Boise Monday evening. Mrs. Gar
vim left for Pocatello yesterday to
visit friends while her husband is
at Minerva, giving his personal atr
tention to the installing of Garvin
cyanide plant there, process of
his invention. He and Superintend-
ent Keough left for the mine yesfer-
day and Mr.. Garvin will remain
there until the plant makes a test
run. The distinctive features of
this process, from the many other
similar ones, is the simplicity and
effectiveness of the hydraulic agita-
ton, and different mechanical ap-
plication of electricity as prccip-
itant, which, it is claimed, isahead
of all others. Several mines in Ida
no are adopting this process and
having plants installed.

Solicitor General Hoyt, in present.
ing his argument on behalf of the
government, had occasion to refer
to quotation from decision of
Justice Bradley, in which the word
through" was spelled thru.
When the passage was reached the
chief justice took exception to the
quotation being considered an ex-
act rendering of Justice Bradlcy's
official opinion, and stated that
while the new spelling might be
adopted in the preparation Of de-
partment briefs, he did not fee
that the department was justified
in changing the orthography oi
judicial opinions. He ordered thai
in the future such changes would
be guarded against.

Land Fraud Trials.

In the federal court at Moscow
yesterday, the indictment charging
c. w. Robnett with subornation of
perjury, in inducing George Ray
Robinson and B. H. Farris to swear
falsely in applications to file on
stone and timber claims, was read
to the jury. The defense stated
that it did not care at that time to
give its side. In the afternoon the
government put its chief witness,
George r. Robinson, on the stand.
Robinosn freely admitted that he
committed perjury in filling out
his application blank attendant up
on his taking up a stone and tim
Der claim. He made a pathetic
spectacle as he occupied the witness
stand and told in ungarnished IAN
guagc that he lied when he filled
out certain blanks in his spplica-
tion, and adding that Robnett had
schoolcd him and the latter knew
he was swearing to falsehoods. He
told how Farris was instrumental

The Coal Situation.

When the railroad officials re-
ceived the message from Mayor
Mahoney last week, to the effect
that he had been instructed by
twenty-eight leading citizens to cut
out coal cars from passing trains
when needed, turn the coal over to
local dealers, have them collect and
pay the company; unless the agree
ment entered into between officials
and citizens be complied with,
the superintendent of this division
instructed the agent here to sue
out an injunction should the may
or attempt to carry out this pro-
gram. That looked like a scrap
was brewing; but Monday the COM
pany left two cars here of it's own
accord, which relieved the tension
of the situation. Sunday, the
towns coal supply having become
exhausted, the rustlers got busy and
relieved one train OF five cars.
Mayor Mahoney appeared on the
scene and ordered them to ''rins
off, - which they did without pro.
test. A man was employed to guarc
this unloaded coal that night and i
was delivered to the agent Monday
) Mayor Mahoney says he thinks tha
the railroad officials have bette
; understanding of the situation her
now than heretofore and that the
: will not in future ignore thei
promise to furnish three cars
, week. There is nothing the matte
5 with Mahoncy. Bennett Brother
: received notice yesterday that

for them at the mines.

Stanfield and AXE, the latter hav-

majority by seven and left the other

Can Haul Coal Next Year.

Prompted by the congestion of
traffic and car shortage for this
year, the Hartman lines are max
ing purchases for freight equipment
for 1907 on a grand scale. 1t was
announced yesterday that they now
have oders for S21, 900, 900 worth
of refrigerator, box, flat and Condo
la cars, all of which it is expected
will be delivered before the season
of heavy traffic next year. The
total number of freight cars ordered
by them, but not yet delivered, is
10, 600. OF these 600 are refriger-
ator cars. These will be o. the
most modern type and will cost
$1,000 each. About 600 of them will
be delivered before January 1, and
the rest have been promised at the
rate of 500 month during the first
OF the months of next year. After
all have been received the Harri-
man lines will own a total of 7470
refrigerator cars. Heretofore they
have used annually 1000 to 5000

The Case of Bill Thomas.

Last week Mavef ick, in reporting
the Jail delivery here, said that the
general impression prevailed that
some former inmate had secured the
patterns, made the keys and turned
the trick. This was followed by
reference to Bill Thomas, now out
on bail. Some one has tried TO
construe this into an insinuation
that he is the one who did the
work Nothing of the kind was
intended, nor intimated. In this
connection, the writer desires to
state there are two or three people
around this town who, apparently,
devote the larger part OF their other
wise unoccupied time in endeavor-
ing, by strained misconstruction, to
place this paper in a false light.
They will learn sooner or later that
Maverick says exactly what 1t
means, means what it says, never
resorts to innucndo and leaves nc
doubt on mind of average intelli-
gence as to what idea it intends tc
convey. But to return to the Bill
Thomas case, an interesting anc
different version of his alleg eC
escape" from the officer at At
lanta is current of late. 1t is t
the effect that no one interestc'
on the other side of the cas-
: wanted him held; that he remain
ed in Atlanta three days afte
the officers ''lost' him and tha
: the offering of a reward by tn
commissioners for his capture wa
a surprise to all concerned. Fur
thermore, that these facts will b
brought out at the trial.

The board of county commissioners,
Messrs. Pence and Ward being
present, met Monday to canvas the
election returns. They had all
been received except those from
Mayfield and Junction Bar. The
board remained in session through
Tuesday, but still these delinouents
failed to arrive, and adjournment
was taken.
Auditor Shelter got busy with
the telephone wires, and yesterday
the Mayfield returns came in,
sewed up in flour sack. The
Judges at Junction Bar say they
sent the returns down on the stage
Tuesday but they were not deliv-

The law says that judges must
make their precinct returns to the
auditor Immediately after election,
and provides that auditors shall
send in county returns to the state
board not later than ten days after
election, which time expires today.

commissioners to sign up these re.
turns and in order to do so now,
it will be necessary to have G.
