Good Old English Custom.

There was an old-fashioned custom
on the English road, which I suspect
Is now obsolete, or practiced only by
the vulgar. Journeys of length being
made on horseback, and. of course by
brief stages. ii was usual always to
make a halt on the Sunday in some
town where the traveller might attend
divine service and his horse have the
benefit of the day of rest. the institu-
ton of which is as humane to our brute
laborers as profitable to ourselves. A
counterpart to this decent practice,
and a remnant of old English hospital
ity, was. that the landlord of a prin-
cipal inn laid aside his character of
publican on the seventh day, and in
vited the guests who chanced to be
within his walls to take a part of his
family beef and pudding. This invi-
tation was usually complied with by
all whose distinguished rank did not
induce them TO think compliance a de-
rogation; and the proposal of bottle
Of wine after dinner, TO drink the land
lords health, was the only recon-
pense ever offered or accepted.-Sir
Walter Scott.

also satisfied that the lIagcrman
people will unanimously rally to
the support Of these wealthy and
practical railway people, and so
procure the extension from ThouS-
and Springs at the earliest possible
date. In the meantime the grade
may be erected into Hagerman and
placed at the disposal Of the people
for a wagon road to the end Of the

CALLED THE BLUFF.

''lll''l' VI wv Nhildi T'I0 A~-h- |
citation who have come in contact
with Atty. Sam. Hays, the legal
representative of the Kuhn Interests
IN Idaho, are very familiar with the
bull-dozing tactics rcsortcd to by this
gentleman in his dealings with rep
re-cntatives Of the Association.
He resorted to the same policy in
the hearing before the land board
last week but before this hearing
was ended hc had calmed down to
such an extent that hc llatly refused
to answer the questions put to him
10y Auditor Taylor.
With all the bragg that is charac-
teriStic OF the man, MIR. Hays assert
ed that the settlers through their
representatives before the board had
better CLOSE up their complaints AT
this hearing and without further
delay, for within a year the COM
pany might decide To- 20 ahead with
the forfeiture of water rights and
that would catch many of the set
tiers. He added that there were
NOT any too many settlers ON the
proicct and that the water supply
available could be distributed tu
those not in arrears. In other
words the settlers ON the tract must
shut their mouths and not interfere
with the plans Of the company in
their attempt to unload an inrom-
plcicd system upon them, which
condition was admitted 10 bc tho
ease 10y Mr.. Hays, when in the next
breath he informed the land board
that his company had made ar
raugements with the government
for the purchase and delivery Of wa
ter to the project from the Jackson
lake reservoir in Wyoming, whicl
proceeding would not be- necessary
| if the system here was complete.
Atty Johnson, for the A--ocia-
tion, called the hiuil on thr gentle
man and declared 'thaj the com
pany had not fulfilled the terms @
it, contract and that the settlers in
sisted that the board proceed to for
felt the contract; that the settler
were tired Of depending ON th
promises of the company; that Tn
: settlers do MT propose 60 keep still
and will continue to make thci
complaints to the board rcgarllcs
' Of tine wishes of the officers OF tn
company.
lIercupon State Auditor Taylo
propounded a number of question
/ to Mr.. Hays as to the condition @
n the tract, which hc refused To- an
swcr at that time. The position q
T. the company however, was clearl
C defined in their answer to the com
y plaint filed 10y the settlers, in whic
'- they deny each and every allcgatio
g set forth in the complaint rclatiN
to the ncompletnes- of the system

Il trovcrsy will bc closely watched i
