The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1911-08-22

While Challis is an old town,
comparatively speaking, in point
of the date of its establishment.
it is yet a new town by reason
of it's many improvements re-
Gently added.
Since the drop in silver Chal-
lis has been almost at a stand
still until within the past two
years, during which time the
natural progressive spirit of her
citizens has reasserted itself. so
to speak. and Improvement after
improvement has been added
until at the present time town
presents quite metropolitan
appearance Challis can prob
aoly boast of more cement side
walks than any village of its
size in the state. June 29th last
the electors of the village voted
bonds for the construction of a
system of municipal water
works, the proposition carrying
by a vote of to /, and within
the next few months Challis will
have an up-to-date system of
water works, owned and con-
trOlled by the municipality, fur
nishing the purest of mountain
water for domestic use, and af-
fording ample fire protection for
any occasion.
Among the many improve
ments added during the past two
years in the way of buildings
may be mentioned the First Ma
tional Bank building, construct
ed of concrete blocks, and oc-
cupied solely by the above nam
ed bank for conducting of the
already large and increasing
business; also the City Drug
Store building, a two-story, the
first floor which is occupied as a
drug store, and the second floor
a thoroughly equipped hospital
A telephone exchange will soon
be put in. and an electric light
ing system next year.
The municipal treasury has a
surplus of about $500, with &c
outstanding indebtedness of any
kind, Notwithstanding the fact
that the village government
started in November, 1907, with
out cent in the treasury, which
certainly speaks we'll for those
who have been in charge of tn.
municipal affairs. From th'
above statements it might be in
ferred that a high rate of ia!
levy had been INDUCED in, bu
such is not the case, the lev,
having been very reasonable ant
far below the maximum permis
sible.
The country directly tributar,
to Challis, and in fact all of tn,
county, has until recently. al
ways been classed as mining
section. and it is undoubtedl,
true that large portion of tn
; county comprises one of tn
richest undeveloped mining re
gions to be found anywhere.
But in addition to the mining
resources we have hundreds O
thousands of acres of agricul
tural land of the very best kind
land that produces abundan
crops of all agricultural variet
les. And the land and climat
are especially adapted to tn
- raising of the big red apples.

tiles of the harder fruits. And
one of the chief advantages
here is that the mining section
furnishes local market for the
farm products.
Much Improvement is being
done in this vicinity of Challis
in the way of irrigation works
for the reclamation of the arid
lands. The Salmon River Land
& Irrigation company's project
across Salmon river from the
town is practically completed.
and some of the lands under it
are raising crops. And the
Challis Ditch company are max
ing final surveys on the west
side project, and will begin
throwing dirt on the canal soon,
and expect to have water for
1900 acres of land next year.
Boise Statesman.
To the above we would like to
add: Challis, is the county seat
of Custer County. 1t is located
in the low foothills of Round
Valley, a fine and large valley
adapted to agriculture. stock
and fruit raising. The Salmon
river crosses the valley on the
east: while Challis Greek on the
north and Garden Creek runs
through the center of the valley
both creeks runs due east and
puts into Salmon river. Challis
is beautifully located on Garden
creek. Salmon river. with its
vast volume of water, will some
day be harnessed. and furnish
all kinds of power for industries
in this valley, besides furnishing
water for all our arid lands.
Two railroads have been sur
veyed tc Challis, and before
many years will have both OF
them, and when it does and oul
J resources are fully developed
Chrllis is destined to be a city
of 5000 people.

EnaIand's Greatest Min. Fire.

The most serious collery fire ever
known in Britain was undoubtedly
that which broke out at the Tawd val
ley mine, near Preston. in 1872. Thou
sands Of pounds were spent in trying to
get the flames under CONTROL but they
overcame everything and consumed
some millions of tons Of coal. 4 wall
ten feet in thickness was built round
the affected parts, but the heat cracked
the masonry and brought 1t down as
fast as it was rebuilt. However, In
1897 the river Tawd overfowed its
banks and went pouring down into the
mine. No fire could withstand such an
immense volume Of water hurled upon
1t, and, although the flames extended
for 500 yards. they were quenched
after having ragged for a quarter OF
century. Tit-B!ts.

SLIGHT FIRES.

Early last night fire was discovered
on the roof of house No. 615 Queen
street. Members OF the Reliance Fire
Company subdued the flames with an
extinguisher
A burning chimney OF the house at
the southwest corner Of King und
Henry streets caused some anxiety
while the high northwest wind was pre-
vailing early last night. An extinguisher
from the Reliance engine house was
brought into requisition and the fire
was soon eXtinguished.
a chimney of house on the east
side Of St. Asaph street, between King
and Prince, caught fire this morning,
but the flames we're quickly subdued
by members Of the Columbia Company

Der who lived to be nearly ninty years

OF age. :,
In conclusion, your honor, I will
simply repeat what I said to him on
another occasion. Albert Stuart was
remarkable man. A man who
reaches four-score and ten years OF age
must be remarkable man. Few men,
possibly one out of ten thousand, reach
four-score and ten years OF age. For
eighty years he lived an unusually
active life in this community. He was
in close touch and contact with men OF
nearly three generations, and now AFTER
his departure from among them there
i not one who can truthfully say
Albert Stuart ever oyer-reached or
wronged his fellow man.
It has been said, the good a man
does lives after him, but the evil he
does is often buried with him. | be-
lieve nearly all men respect this senti-
ment, and few ever speak evil OF the
dead. This has no application to our
brother. His life was free from evil
action and evil thought. His nature
was antagonistic to wrong. Right,
truth and justice dweIt in him. Never
robust, but weak physically, therefore
his long life cannot be accounted for by
reason OF any advantage he possessed
in this respect over his contemporaries,
and it can only be attributed to some
thing superior to the physical. 1t may
be, and, your honor, l sincerely be.
lieve it was, because he put his con-
science in every act or matter he per.
formed during his whole life, because
he 1as pure in heart, for no purer soul
ever breathed the breath Of life than
Albert Stuart. His conscience through
his long life was free from offense to
any man. I believe a man with q
troubled conscience cannot live four.
score and ten years for troubled
conscience shortens life--it kills. Or
him it can truthfully be said, he died
as he had lived, in perfect charity
with the world.

Opera House last night. The bill was
very strong. Barnon's Circus certainly
made q hit with the adults as well as
the children. It is remarkable how a
horse can be trained to understand
every question put to him. Clay
Clement e. Co. offered sketch The
Outlaw" showing how a fellow gone
wrong robs stage coach in whish is
his own sister. Mr.. Clement acts his
parts SO wildly that it will linger in the
memory OF those who seen it. Inc
third act did not seem to take, 80 the
management will replace it with some
thing different for tonight and Wednes-
day. The pictures we're also good.
