Took the Wrong House.

e.On one Of the southern railroads

monty known by travellers as the small
est railroad station in America. 1t is
Of this station that the story is told
that an old farmer was expecting
chicken house to arrive there, and he
sent one of his hands, a newcomer, to
fetch it. Arriving there, the man saw
the house, loaded it on to his wagon
and started for home. On the way he
met a man in uniform with the words
"Station Agent" on his cap.
"Say, hold on. What have you got
on that wagon?" he asked.
"AIy chicken house, Of course" was
the reply.

Curious French Market.

There is a curious old market near
Paris in which everything is sold at
secondhand. Working girls can fit
themselves out there from head to
foot. AS a writer says: Mimi can sell
her old felt hat and buy a straw one,
exchange her old dress for new one
and, if she likes, buy a steak and 4
salad for her dinner, paper bag Of
fried potatoes, sweets and some flow
ers for her window. Democracy IS king
here, and no more attention is paid to
the millionaire who is looking for
something marvellous which he may
pick up cheap than to the man with a
wooden leg who wants new boot in
exchange for a dozen sardine tins, FIVE
gloves and stocking.

August.

August" the name Of the month, is
accented on the first syllable. "Au-
gust" the adjective, is accented on the
second syllable This IS due, no doubt,
to the fact that, though both started
from the Latin augustus" they have
arrived by different routes. The ad-
iective Is the French "auguste," While
August" coznmemorating the Roman
emperor's title, is the French "aout
and the middle English "augst" or
"aust." 'July" used to rhyme with
"duly." even in Johnson's time, as 1t
had done centuries earlier and as it
does in southern Scotland to this day.

Avery c. Moore.

Avery G. Moore of the Wieser World
was rep, ,esentative from Idaho to the
National Editorial Association at its
meeting in indianapolis this week, and
had the honor of delivering an address
before that distinguished gathering
Mr.. Moore as an orator is second to
perhaps only one man in the state, and
he chose to speak in defense of Idaho
in the charges brought against the state
by Debs and other socialistic and anar-
chistic agitators that the authorities
were in collusion with the mine owners
association to bring about the convic-
tion of the parties charged with the
murder of former Governor Steunen-
berg The scathing terms in which he
denounced Debs and other agItators
and stood up for the good name of Ida
no had telling effect upon the inter
ested listeners and will have good in
auence upon their future writings upon
this question.
We quote passage from his speech:
There is a man living down here in
Indiana who has been, and is asserting,
is declaring to the country every week
that Idaho has determined to commit
murder in the name of Justice. No
charge so infamous as that was ever be-
fore conceived by the genius of evil and
hurled at an American state. With the
faith of great and just people behind
me, declare to you my brother editors,
on this hallowed soil that he dishonors
in dishonoring mine, that Eugene Debs
has lied He lied when he proclaimed
the existence of a conspiracy between
Idaho and the mine owners of Colorado
to destroy labor unionism in the mine
raj industry; he lied when he said that
the courts of Idaho could be bought
and sold like merchandise; and he lied
as only man deranged or debased can
lie, when he heralded to the workers O
the United States that Idaho has de

The Oldest Woman.

Mrs. Matilda P. Ninemier, at the aye
of l04 years, is gradually growing more
feeble and nearing the end of her pro
longed earthly existence in Boise. This
remarkable old lady is the mother of
Ben and Jack Ninemier, we'll known in
this county few years ago, but now
engaged in placer mining in Central
Idaho, aud is the grand mother of the
two we'll known miners at DeLamar
and Black Jack, Jack and Dan Marshall,
with whose mother she has long made
her home in Boise. Another son of the
venerable old lady is Sam Wilson
Ninemier, who in quarrel in Boise
county about fifteen years ago killed
three men named 1'obe Pitts, Pitt
Smith and - Townsend, and became
a fugitive. He was known while work
ing at Flint as Sam Wilson. He has
recently returned to his sisters home
in Boise and is dying with cancer.
The venerable lady has up to the
present year been quite active, for

creed, in advance Of trial, the death .of
innocent men.
Gentlemen, in the state of Idaho will
soon begin one of the most remarkable
criminal cases in the annals of the law.
Three men are to be tried for murder
The fiend who. by his own hand, de-
stroyed the life of one of Idaho's former
governors has confessed that these three
men employed him to commit that
crime. They happen to be the leaders
of labor union embracing the miners
OF the west as brave and true-hearted
a race of men as can be found anywhere
on this earth.
But Idaho is not trying leaders of la
Dor, but men--men charged with a
crime against the commonwealth of
Idaho, crime against human society
and against civilization. If they are
innocent they will be set free if guilty
they must pay the penalty that Idaho
demands OF those who offend against
her laws.
A confessed assassin says that the
men on trial are guilty;'I believe they
are innocent; the people OF Idaho be
lieve they are innocent; the laws of
Idaho place the presumption Of inno-
cence with the accused the courts of
Idaho will proceed with the trial upon
that assumption-and jury of Ameri-
can citizens will not find them guilty
without the presentation OF legitimate
and conclusive evidence.
The courts of Idaho were always &C
counted just until the Prophet of Dis
order arose and declared them corrupt
But / make no unreasonable request
when | ask you to believe that the ad-
ministration Of justice in my state is
pure until you are given evidence Of its
corruption.
1t is a serious thing to charge state
established upon free constitution
with conspiracy against the funda-
mental guarantees of liberty. Eugene
Debs doubtless knows how such an un-
supported Indictment can advance the
cooperative commonwealth, but his
method of reasoning is hard to follow.
In idaho we cannot see b W the murder
trial to which | have referred-or any
other murder trial lis Socialism's con-
cern, any more than it is the concern of
Methodism or of Masonry. Nor can
Idaho determine how the conviction or
acquittal of the accused men can, in any
wise, affect the great movement Of labor
toward industrial emancipation; that
knowledge is the peculiar and exclusive
possession Of Eugene Debs. 1t is evl-
dent, however, that he has less faith in
the dignity and stability Of that move
ment than have the American people
generally and the people Of Idaho in
particular.
Out in the tolerant atmosphere OF
Idaho we are speeding the day Of labor's
triumph-not retarding. We are not
conspirators to disrupt ordiscredit union
ism. On the contrary, it is our proud
boast that we have established state
where labor is secure against Debs and
the Gospel Of Force.
Gentlemen, am citizen of Idaho,
and have spoken as the citizens Of Ida
no feel. l ask your confidence in the
high motives that control them and l
deliver to you sealed bond Of promise
that they will never contribute a chap

American People"
