FRIDAY, APRIL "a, 1908.

Without any of the efrontery
of La Toilette which drove the
dignified older members of the
senate out of the chamber as a
rebuke for violating its customs,
our own junior senator from Ida
no has made his maiden speech
before that august body on a
question which has attracted
national interest, in manner
and with an ability which has
made his grave and reverend
seigniors stay in their seats and
listen. Mr.. Borah has, during
his first session in the u. S. Sen
ate, won the respect of his fellow
members and caused them to
heartily congratulate him and
compliment him for his legal at
tainments and forencic ability.
Idaho is now acknowledged to
be represented in both houses of
congress by unusually able men.

With the foremost county in
the tein gold production; with
two splendidly producing mines
employing full compliments of
men; with numerous other mining
properties showing satisfactory
progress and promise ofsoon be-
ing counted in the list of pro-
ducers; with one new mill about
completed and another one ar
ranged for and to be built during
the early summer, the mining in
terests in this district of Owyhee
county never looked more propi-
tious than at present. And more,
the Flint district, for twenty
years comparatively idle, is again
coming TO the front, and the old
mines over there, under a re-or-
ganization as the Perseverance
Mining company, ere again TAX
ing out and shipping richer ore
from a greater depth in the older
workings than it ever produced
in its former days. The holders
of the option on South Mountain
mines will soon be busy again
with machinery to develop the
property below water level with
the fair prospects of eventually
developing a great copper prop
erty out of what was formerly
only a silver-lead producer. All
of these enterprises are tending
to give a cheerful outlook for our
mining industry.

said contemptuously: "Nampal
Why Nampa was started on a
shoe string and is keptupo on hot
air. That statement struck us
forcefully and we wondered if it
were true. We sincerely hope it
is But if it is, it reflects little
credit on Caldwell. Here we have
not one but two shoe strings, a
pair of shoes and gum boots for
campaigns and rainy weather,
and yet we are not many city
blocks ahead OF Nampa. Con-
sidering the equipment Nampa
has done us to a beautiful brown.
Caldwell once started to build a
branch to Boise, Nampa got out
her shoe string and built the road
while We were preparing the
grade. The two towns each
wanted good hotels. Caldwell
built a most creditable one, Nam
pa built the finest in the State.
Then came on the sugar factory
proposition. Gum boots started
on it's gum boot campaign, Nam
pa cracked her shoe string, turn
ed on her hot air and in 6 months
a million dollar sugar factory
was in course of construction.
So it was with many other things,
from Fourth fully celebrations
to business; from railroad to
rural delivery routes. Nampa
has today a rural delivery route
coming within a mile and a half
of the Caldwell postoffice. Nam
pa took our Enterprise mail
route away from us. Nampa has
done more with a shoe string
than most towns would have
done with all of John Steunen-
berg's boots and shoes, gum
boots and overshoes, corn salve
and all.
Nampa should be a source of
pride and inspiration to all other
towns. 1t shows what energy in
diligently directed can do. 1t
pays to make the best possible of
the shoe string if that's all you
have.

One OF the reasons why collecting
appeals to SO many persons, OF such
different temperament and position, is
undoubtedly the element of chance in
1.-THE possibility OF coming unexpect-
eddy upon some great treasure. The
matter is well illustrated by the story
OF a postage stamp which has Just
been added to famous western col
lection. The stamp is what is known
as 'postmaster's provisional and
was issued in Alexandria, Va. in 1s47.
Three or four copies of the same
stamp, printed on bun paper, were al
ready known, but this one is printed
on blue, and is unique. The stamp was
on an old letter which had been pre-
served merely for family associations.

DID SERVICE AT BUNKER HILL.
Maine Man Owns Musket That Was
Used In Historic Conflict.

Alonzo Smith of Skowhegan, Me-,
has an old gun, which was used in the
battle of Bunker Hill, 131 years ago.
Many who fought on the American
side on the 18th of June afterward
went to Maine to settle, among them
Billy Smith, private In the Second
New Hampshire regiment. Mr.. Smith,
the great-grandfather of Alonzo Smith
OF Skowhegan, settled in Cornville in
1890, and his grave is in the orchard
on farm near where his grandson,
Clark Z. Smith, now lives. The mus
ket which Billy Smith carried at Bun
ker Hill was among his effects brought
to Cornville, and on his death passed
into the hands OF his son, David, and
was By him bequeathed to his grand
son, Sylvester Smith. A few years
ago, when Sylvester left for the west,
he gave the famous old musket to
Sylvester Smith OF Skodhegan, who
now treasures It as family heirloom.
One remark made by Billy Smith in
relating his experiences at Bunker
Hill has been handed down TO his de-
scendants, TO the effect that he felt
souie repugnance at first in shooting
at the redcosts as they came up the
slope, but after the first few shots he
could as easily take aim at g British
Officer as he could at a partridge. The
gun Itself is in working order, barring
the loss Of the flint, and could be
easily re-equipped for actual use.

There may be some justification for
the demand for enlarging the suffrage
In Germany, for the movement seems
to be In line with the trend toward
liberalism in every direction, illustra-
tons of which are seen in the pro
ceedings In Persia, where the people
have enforced the adoption of consu-
tuition; In Russia, where the struggle
is between absolutism and greater
consideration for popular sentiment;
In China. Portugal and elsewhere. But
It is grave mistake to ally the agita'
ton with socialistc scheming. The
thoughtful citizen must realize that
socialistic teachings are hurt and
not help TO liberalism, and mob rule
Is in various respects more dangerous
and intolerable than well.reguiated
