FRIDAY, JULY u, 1907.

1t is a relief to be told that the
long Haywood trial is drawing
toward a close, if not a finish,
and it is with pride we hear that
John F. Nugent, the Silver City
attorney for the defense, will
probably be accorded the honor
OF making the opening plea, it
now being conceded that that
rising young attorney, with gift
ed oratory, can stick closer to
the subject at hand, strike more
telling blows with clearer logical
effect, than can any of the more
distinguished attorneys on his
side of the case. This is said to
be the opinion OF Haywood, who
has developed into a shrewd and
capable Judge OF thelegal aspects
of his own case.

"When Is Maid an Old MaidY" With
in a steel ''cage" in the Chemical Bank,
in New York, an elderly woman stood
as if personally guarding her millions
that were stored in the vault behind her.
That was Mrs. Hattie Green, and
through the bars of her "cagen she said
"Old maids There should be none.

An Uniustifiable Knock.

The meanest and most harm
full report for Owyhee industries
which we have seen published in
a long time, was an item in the
Nampa Leader, stating that Gin
all probability business will be
very quiet in Owyhee after July
90" and then going on to say
that "the 21OO miners in De
Lamar and Silver City have
made a demand on the DeLamar
and Trade Dollar companies for
an increase of % cents a day,
after July 90" This report has
scarcely any foundation what
ever, but it's circulation by a
newspaper published in a town
depending as largely as Nampa
does upon the good will and pa
tronage of Owyhee people, is, to
say the least, indiscreet. There
is no threat oreven talk of shut
down or strike at either of the
mines mentioned, and no formal
demand for an increase in wages
has been made on either of the
companies. There has been some
little discussion among the men
about asking foran increase, and
the matter is said to have been
talked over with the managers,
by some of the men, who have
been convinced that such a de-
mand would be untimely and I'M
reasonable under present condi-
tions, and there is not the least
likelihood that it will be made.
The miners in Owyhee are rs con-
sentative and fair-minded as any
class Of workmen anywhere, and
they realize that the managers
OF mines. have ever been ready to
treat the men with consideration,
and to concede to all their rea-
sonable demands. Everything

isgoing along very smoothly and
satisfactorily here now, and there
is no disposition to disturb ex-
listing conditions.
1t is just such reports as the
one referred to, which work harm
in a locality where there are
many enterprises just getting on
their feet and interesting outside
capital. There are fully a dozen
such in Owyhee mining districts,
and to have them given a knock
in a town depending as much as
Nampa does upon their success,
is certainly inexcusable. And the
Boise Statesman gave this same
knock credence by copying it.
These papers should investigate
such matters before publishing
them.

Writing Ben Hur."

in the historic, 300 year-old COVER
nor's palace at Santa Fe is a room
known and placarded as the Ben Hur'
room, in which it is alleged, on good
authority, the late General Lew Wallace
wrote the greater part of his famous
tale of the Christ. 1t was largely by
reason of the popular interest taken
in this part OF the building that the bill
introduced in the New Mexico legis-
lature to turn the old building over to
the United States government to be used
as school and museum of American
archaeology became law.
Now come several iconoclasts seeking
to cast doubts on Santa FEES claim for
fame. For instance, it is asserted that
visitors to Crawfordsvile, Indiana, are
shown large tree on the Wallace
homestead and informed that directly
under this tree" Ben Hur' was written
and that from it's branches General
Wallace received the inspiration that
gave to the world one of the most ia
nous products OF American literature"
A correspondent of tile Toledo Blade
reviews these conflicting claims and
further compicates affairs by stating
General Wallace once distinctly said to
him: 81 was five years writing Ben
Hor' and my time was chiefly spent in
the public library at Boston and the
congressional library at Washington. !"
The Blades correspondent ENORMOUSLY
concludes Nov, then, where did
General Wallace write Ben Hur?' Was
it under the shady tree at Crawfordville,
or in the governors palace at Santa Fe?
Or was it in Washington and Boston?
l may also add that cannot recall now
that General Wallace ever mentioned
the governors palace in telling his
story of writing Ben Hur.'"
The Blades correspondent should lose
no time in reading General Wallace's
autobiography, recently published.
General Wallace did not like to bring
his memoirs down to date, but Mrs.
Wallace has given considerable valuable
information regarding the writing of
'Ben Hur" and several of the authors
letters to lis wife are set forth in which
it distinctly appears that Santa Fe and
the governors palace are entitled to
their fame. Mrs. Wallace speaks of her
husband working until late at night on
the story OF the Prince of Peace, while
"Billy the Kid" was without the palace,
watching the glimmering light in the
governors room and plotting to murder
him She also refers to the trouble
| Governor Wallace had with a recaci
trant legislature and with rebellious
Indians and tells of the difficulty it
was to forget these things at night while
the writing of "Ben Hur" progressed.
Several letters written by General
Wallace at Santa Fe in regard to the
book and its progress make a conclusive
case for Santa Fe. The other claim
ants are pretenders without leg to
stand on.-Ex.

H--@-n-----r-----r-
The department of agriculture
in its May report gives some in
teresting information on the pro-
gress of the beet sugar industry
in the United States. The report
is devoted to this one subject.
In regard to Idaho it says:
cat the present time Idaho has
four sugar factories operating in
the state, scattered along the
Snake river from the western to
the eastern part. These plants
have given great impetus to the
agricultural development. There
are several places in thestate I'M
der serious consideration for
building beet-sugar factories. 1t
is anticipated that some of these
projects will materialize in the
near future. During the past
season factories in operation re-
ceived a large tonnage and were
worked to their capacity, the
campaigns lasting from so to
120 days. The results of this
season have done much to stimu-
late the industry in the state.
The state is developing very rap
idly. Irrigation facilities, fruit
culture, and the growing OF al
falfa, small grain and potatoes
are extending rapidly. Indica-
tions point to the need of other
sugar factories. The projectors
of factories in Idaho are well adj
vised of the needs of the industry.
This experience was gained
through long, intimate acquaint-
ance with it in Utah. There is no
tendency to overdo the matter
or overreach the capabilities of
the state sustaining the sugar
industry. Factories will be built
as fast as the business status will
warrant. When the factory was
installed at Nampa by the Utah
Sugar company it entered into
an arrangement with the bust
ness and farming interests Of
Payette. 1t was decided that
Payette district should grow
beets in 1906 for the factory ut
! Nampa, and as soon as sufficient
reagecould be procured around
Payette another factory would
be constructed there. During
the past season around Payette
was grown a large acreage, re-
suits of which were highly salts
satisfactory to the factory man.
agement. Under this agreement
construction of a factory will
commence in 1907, to be ready
for the campaign in 1908"

This formal demand from the board
was served on Mrs. Allen by the sher-

cording to Mrs. Aliens attorney the
recorder will pay no attention what
ever to the notice. This action is d.
rectly at cross-purposes with the ac-
ton OF the supervisors, which paid
scant heed and took no action on the
request from Mrs. Allen that the
boards resolution stopping her pay
be rescinded. When board members
were asked what further action tney
expected to take provided Mrs. Alien
still refused to turn over the fees OF
| her office, they said they did not know.
I 1t is apparent, however, by the meth
