VANISHING Seamen.

The old time sailor has nearly vanish

to come from the Imagination of some
new librettist he would no longer be

die, reef and steer or ship a selvagee." "
There will be no present day Alling-
ham to chant the glories of ''the wet
sheet and the flowing sea and the
wind that follows fast to bend the will
lowy mast" for there are no longer
sheets and masts enough to inspire his
muse. For the matter of that, the en-
tire song has gone out of sea life.
When men "tripped anchors" and did
it by manning a capstan and bending
their backs rhythmically to the job, as
the mate sang chanties to them, mu-
sic counted as an exhilarant but now
steam winches lift the anchors and
what would be the sense of singing to

CONCENTRATES.

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Gyratory crushers totaling 10
are at work at the Homestake
mine and mills; and storage-bins
hold 5000 tons OF ore.
Erosion of the land surface in
the United States is of enormous
extent, and 270,000,000 tons of
dissolved matter and 513,000,-
900 tons Of suspended matter are
transported to tidewater every
year by the various streams. If
this erosive action had been con-
centrated upon the Isthmus of
Panama at the time of American
occupation, it would have ex-
cavated the prism for an 85-ft.
sea-level canal in about 73 days.
Miners may cut from locations
upon public land Excluding land
in the National F'orests) without
asking for permit, all the tim
Der necessary in the mining and
development operations; but as
he is only an occupant operating
under a license, although owning
the mineral under his possessory
right, he does not own the TIM
ber so as to be able to make
whatever disposition of it he
wishes. until the issuance of the
receivers receipt, he cannot sell
any timber from his claim; and
it appears that he cannot law
fully cut timber from his location
without permit, for other pur-
poses than that connected with
their development and the mill
ing, smelling, or reduction of his
ores.

Trees and Lightning.

The relation of trees to lightning. as
shown by bulletin of the United
States forest service. does not wholly
accord with popular beliefs. 1t is
found that trees are the objects most
often struck because they are the most
numerous of all prominent objects.
they offer a short course to the ground.
and their spreading branches in the
air and roots in the soil present an
ideal conductor to the ground. Any
kind of tree may be chosen by the
lightning. the greatest number in any
locality being found among the domi-
nant species. The likelihood of any
tree being struck is increased if it is
taller than surrounding trees, is isolat-
ed, is on high land. is deeply rooted
and If its condition-as when wet
makes 1t the best electrical conductor
of the vicinity at the time of the flash
Lightning may set forest fire by ig-
hitting the. tree or-what Is much more
likely to be the case--the bumus abons

Over Six Feet OF Snow
On CamaS Prairie

Free Press: Camas Prairie
has been in the grip of the storm
king for the past seven days and
from past indications, we may
have several days more of it be-
fore the trees begin to bud. Old
timers say they can not recall in
years the great amount of snow
fall we have had, and while there
has been an abundance of the
beautiful, the weather, with the
exception of several days of
blizzards, has not been bad.
From Voluntary Observer Nor
wood we learn that total of
seventy-four inches Of snow has
fallen since the first Of the
month, think of it, over six feet.
Not since 1894 have we had a
greater amount of snow, during
January of that year total OF
81 inches was recorded but for
tunately it did not remain on the
ground and cause the trouble and
inconvenience we are experience
ing now.

Ontario Gets Decision
AsaiRSt StGga 4 Mine

Judge w. Woods, of the dis
trict court at Wallace, has rem
dered his decision in favor of the
defendants, the Ontario Mining
company, in the suit brought by
the Stewart Mining company, Of
which F. Augustus Heinze is the
head.
In his decision Judge Woods
said: Il have determined in
favor of the defendants in this
action. There may be some
little dispute about the apex of
that vein, but there is no ques-
tion in my mind as to the course
and there is no question in my
mind as to the law of the case.
Il have a settled conviction,
which it will take a decision Of
the supreme court of the United
States to remove, that when a
vein crosses a side line on its
course, that side line becomes

BRADY ELECTED
u. S. SENATOR
Selection Not Satisfactory to
North Idaho.
Bitter Feeling by Some Of the Men,
beFS Of The Legislature.

James H. Brady, former gov
ernor, was elected u. S. senator
for the short term to succeed the
late Senator w. B. Hepburn on
the first ballot Friday. His chief
opponent, Justice James f. ALL
SHE, withdrew from the contest.
Brady received 43 votes, one
more than was necessary.
Senator-elect Brady in an ad-
dress to the legislature said he
would act with the progressive
republicans in the u. S. senate.
On the 31st ballot and the
ninth day Of the session of the
Joint assembly the man who had
led almost continuously in the
balloting from the beginning,
carried off the honor with a total
of 43 votes and with the opposi-
ton so badly scattered as to
place every man in the class of
"also ram
There were but 80 votes cast
on the final ballot, four were ab-
sent. Of the remaining 80 seven
were democrats.
James H. Brady received the
support Of 43 republicans while
80 registered their votes against
him, raIlying around various
standards from that of Chief
Justice Jas. F. Ailshie to Will
liam C. Courtney, the negro jani-
tor at the state house.
Intense interest marked the
proceedings of the assembly and
the excitement reached its climax
when Representative Albert S.
Dickinson of Blackfoot made a
bittle personal attack on the man
who had just been elected to the
highest office within the gift Of
the people of Idaho, and wound
up the episode by casting his
vote for the negro janitor in an
effort he said to show his con-
tempt.
Another incident of the assem-
bly, that aroused the audience to
high pitch of enthusiasm was a
brief speech delivered with deep
feeling by the newly-elected
senator in which he expressed
his sincere thanks for the honor,
acknowledging his deep debt of
gratitude to the people of the
state and pledged himself to do
all in his power in his new posi-
ton to promote the material in
terests of the state and social
Justice among all men.
The Lewiston Tribune has the
following comment on the cleo
ton of Mr.. Brady:
"The Tribune regrets, on pub
lie grounds, the decision of the
state legislature that has elevated
Ex-Governor James H. Brady to
the seat in the United States
senate heretofore occupied and
adorned by the late Weldon B.
Hepburn. 1t is unfortunate that
the north Idaho contingents were
unable, because of differences OF
opinion and because of ulteripr
motives, to marshal their forces
and effectuate their just claims
to the succession, but that failure
would have been pardonable had

COUNTY DIVISION Up AGAIN
Would Annex Part Of Idaho County
TO Lewis.

The county division bee is
again buzzing, strictly speaking
not county division at this time
but annexation, a bill having for
it's purpose the annexation of a
portion of Idaho to Lewis, having
been introduced into the legisla-
ture by a legislator from Lewis
county. The bill provides for an
enabling act whereby the resi-
dents Of the section effected are
to vote upon the annexation Of
certain territory to Lewis county
and of course, this means in case
it carries, later on Lewis county
will be divided into two counties
and Kamiah made the county
seat of the new county thus
created. Kamiah has had ambi-
tions for these many years to be-
come a county seat and the peo-
pie of that little town have been
sprucing up of late and looking
forward to the realization of
their dreams by taking a good
liberal slice of territory from
Idaho county and with what they
might get from Lewis, creating
a new county and making their
town the capital thereof.
The slice it is proposed to take
from Idaho county, includes be
sides some very valuable agricul-
tural land. most of the railroad
mileage of the Clearwater line.
The proposition, while it has
very little support from the peo-
ole in the territory sought, will
be opposed by all other sections
of the county, and especially will
Kooskia make fight against it.
A committee composed of the
following gentlemen from Koo-
ska: James Stuart, Jacob Leitch
| George Trenary, w. H. Casady,
Peter Decker and Ed Pring,
came up Saturday night to meet
with the Grangeville Commercial
Club and discuss the matter.
| The club went on record as
against the scheme of anneXa-
ton and appointed a committee
headed by A. F. Parker to look
after the matter for this section
of the county.
The county commissioners went
on record as being opposed to the
move and a combined effort will
be made by the citizens of Idaho
county opposing the annexation
as the question of changing the
boundaries of the county was an
issue at che late election anC
voted down. Free Press.

there been a superior candidature
elsewhere, before whose genius
and whose merit sectional and
other lines must melt away.
Senator-elect Brady is no un-
known quantity in the political
life of the state. He has served
as state chairman, as governor
and as renominee of his party for
governor, when he was defeated,
but a little over two years ago,
for reasons then deemed suffici-
ent and which cannot yet have
been forgotten or retrieved. Mr..
Brady has demonstrated that he
is not a fair representative of
the political and civic quality Of
the state or that he will be able
to express it's aspirations and to
give wise and fruitful counsel
upon it's problems and perplex-
tiles in the federal forum. Lack
ing in mature convictions, even
in ordinary sincerity, save in the
persistent pursuit of his own ag-
grandizement, and with but
meapre and academic conception
of the enormous meaning and
scope of governmental functions,
Mr.. Brady embodies some Of the
worst attributes of the old re-
publican machine, while at the
same time vitiating it's prodigi-
GUS Michiavellian merit by court
ing the favor and professedly
adopting much if not all the pro-
paganda Of the new cult. The
resulting political personality is
not a figure calculated to evoke
admiration or to instill conf
dence."
The general opinion is that eX-
Governor Gooding helped elect
Mr.. Brady, whom he has treated
as his most hated enemy, by way
of making a cinch Of Lincoln
county division, the house bill
which passed the senate. Sew
eral senators who had stated
they opposed the division gave
notice after the senatorial elec-
tion that they had changed their
minds. These senators were al
prominent in the Brady camp.
Moreover, two of the Lincoln
county votes, which Gooding hao
claimed he could throw from his
enemy, voted for Brady on the
deciding ballot. The thire mem.
Der from Lincoln was absent.
Idaho's legislature does not
propose to be without a quorum
on account of the inroads o1
smallpux, and as preventive
measure the house and senate
chambers will be fumigated
The order that the chambers bt
fumigated came in the form of ;
motion passed, and is a result o.
the sickness Of Edelblute o.
Kootenai, who became infected
with smallpox after his arriva
in Boise. Nihart of Twin Fall
also has smallpox, but he be

arrived at the capital.
