meeting of the saints in Salt Lake City couple of
weeks ago and that it composed of representa-
tives of the Republican party from various portions
of Utah The account does not state that any of the
faithful from the state of Idaho crept into the
assemblage, but the affair is greatly clouded as to
the identity of the participants

screen of secrecy strong sentiment which de-

One of the First Settlers.

One of the earliest settlers of the western country
Judge Harlan Pefey, died in Boise this week. after
several months of suffering from rheumatic all
ment, in the forty-six year of his age. He came to
Boise with his parents, from Oregon, orty-three
years ago and was therefore among the first to 10
cate in this smiling valley.
In 1878 Judge Pehey became a student at the
United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, through
appointment by of the territorial delegates in
Congress. Before completing his course, he
compelled to resign by the appearance of the disease
that has finally terminated his Under the
first administration of President Cleveland he served
as register of the land office at Boise and after
wards chief clerk at the state penitentary. Last
spring he appointed municipal Judge by the ma
yor of Boise and overtaken by death while full
filling the duties of that office.
He leaves wife and son and his pioneer mother
survives him.
1t is not often that the press of this comparatively
country is called upon to chronicle the death of
one whose entire lifetime has been devoted to the
development of this section of the west Judge
Pefey was a good citizen and pleasant neghbor

that has known him from its beginning

Mr. Roosevelt is blamed in Mormondom for the
panic and the closing of the mines and the popuace
generally is throwing stones at him. 1t is but a
poor return for his intercesson in behalf of Smoot,
but as Smoot is to go, they probably reason that
Roosevelt may as we'll accompany him.

MONTANA PRAISES NEVADA

In IL recent editorial the Anaconda
Standard has the following on Nevada:
Nevatlans who came to Montana when
the mines of the state began to display
signs of pcrmancncy and who left the
famous old C0mStOck when that property
began to show signs of dccaying, will be
pleased to hear that their former home
state is taking on IL boom of healthy
proportions. one that seems to have the
element of durability. From every part
of Nevada come reports of new and
rich strikes in mines just discovered;
new camps are springing up in many
parts of the state. and if towns continue
to rise, IL new map will soon have to be
made for the old one shows only few
cities and smaller number of towns
Since the exodus from that state thirty
years age, there have been many marked
changes. Goldfeld and other towns
have sprung mp in II night and become
large and important commercial and
mining centcrS. Nevada has eXpcricn-
ced Il greater growth during the past
ten years, perhaps. than any other state
in the union, and certainly it has ut
tractcd worldwide attention. Capital
has literally flowed into the state and
the development of the mines have been
ON Il large scale, characterized by sys-
tenn and good management. There
have, of course. been some wildcat do
ings, but these have served purpose
even if they spoiled large sum they
have to Il large extent served to open
the eyes of the ready buyer of stocks to
the necessity of making the journeys
into the camps to see for himself just
what the promoters of these schemes
meant when they said this or that in
praise of the property exploited.
Men of means and brains have gone
to Nevada and have looked. with the
result that IL great deal of capital has
been invested where it can do some
good. Many things in that part of the
country speak of prosperity for Nevada
this year.

fired Frank Walker as his deputy owing

Men Found Dead

Robert Lochart, Il mining man of
Ryholitc, just in from Death Valley, re-
ports having visited at Mesquite Springs
the camp of Walter Scott, who told him
about the discovery of the remains of
two men fifteen miles northeast of the
camp. There was nothing by which
the men could be identified, except on
the shirt of one was worked the initials
81. w. S." The bodies were badly
torn by coyotes or other wild animals
and the men had probably been dead for
several months. In the vicinity were
the skeletons of two burros and Il sorrel
horse and there was also 5000 Win
chester nearby. 1t is the opinion of Mr..
Scott that the men were murdered and
the horses killed. There is water in the

Back in Prison.

Guard Hagerman returned to Carson
City last evening with Emmett Barry
the fugitive convict III charge and now
Barry is peacefully doing time in the
dungeon ut the prison. The chase made
by Haggcrman after the fugitive was
one of the most spectacular ever made
in the state, it is thought, and the flight
of Barry on one Nevadabred horse
perhaps the longest within the time
consumed. Barry was ut large six days
and it is known that he rested for one
day on Mono lake. On the other five
days it is estimated that he covered
about 400 miles of mostly mountainous
country on horseback. When captured
his animal was fresh and in first class
shape.
Hagerman followed the fugitive for
several hundred miles on horseback but
at Ycrington left his horse and went by
train TO Hawthorne. From there he went
to 1nyo county to head Barry off and
arrived in that section just two hours
ahead of Barry who was captured at
Bishop. Barry is fellow of nineteen
years and is II first class horseman.--
