The approval of the peace pro-
posal will come only after spirited
fight OF a faction that wanted the

give up. Many favor this method

way of deciding the question at issue

Putting on Airs.

Mr.. w. r. Forbes. our popular
transfer man, feels to be little
above the rest OF his brethren when
perched upon the elevated seat OF a
new delivery wagon which arrived
last Saturday. The wagon is from the
factory OF Winkler & Son. and is one
of the latest and most up-to-date
makes for transfer purposes. 1t is
substantially built with the running
gear mostly OF iron and with an ele-
waited seat leaves ample room for a
very large load which the wagon Is
capable Of carrying. Mr.. Forbes
states that he has been three years
saving the money for this purpose.
and while he feels proud of his new
outfit, his friends are also pleased to
note this evidence OF prosperity upon
the part of this most accommodating
gentleman.

Our job department has been busy
the past week turning out a nne IL
Illustrated catalog of the Gem Herd OF
Chester White Swine, bred by Mr..
Geo. II. Lawshe, of Falls City. Mr..
Lawshe has certainly made a great
success since coming to the tract in
raising the Chester White, his ami
mails taking premiums wherever they
have been exhibited. His advice on
hog raising is eagerly sought after
by hog raisers from far and near,
and his knowledge of the business
has been learned from practical ex-
perience, he having followed the
breeding Of this stock long before
coming to the tract. II you are in
terested in the Improved Chester
Whites, write him for one OF his cat

A number Of our citizens were call
ed to Boise last week as witnesses
before the federal court, wherein a
petition was pending at the instance
OF some of the creditors of the Set
tiers Retaining and Operating Co.,
asking that that corporation be de-
clared bankrupt. The hearing occu-
pied the time of the court on Friday
and Saturday last, during which
time some interesting testimony was
introduced relative to the affairs Of
the company, and quite a conflict was
noticeable In the testimony intro
duced regarding the rental value of
the the lands under the management
of the company. 1t will be remem-
bered that the Settlers recently Sc
cured a judgment against the Idaho
California Co. for 100000, which
judgment was attacked by the plain
tins in the case, but in summing up
the case Judge DIETRICH decided that
the judgment was of some value, and
therefore dismissed the petition,
thereby deciding that the company is
solvent.

ABSOLUTE DOWNED
 BY THE VAN|T|E
Fourth Long Island Race Fairly Run and Vanitie
 Gains Clean Decision

Rye, N. Y. June 6.-The bronze yacht vanitie turned the tables on her rival, the Resolute, in the fourth Long Island Sound race sailed today, winning by five minutes 52 seconds in elapsed time.
 As the vanitie gives the Resolute an estimated allowance over the 29a4 miles course, of three minutes and 12 seconds, the margin of the Gardner boat over the Herreshoff creation was believed to have been two minutes and 40 seconds.
 The race was a fairer test than Tues days contest, which was regarded as more or less of fluke, and which the Vanitie won by 16 minutes and 4S seconds
 Both yachts were slow in starting and both were handicapped. Fifteen minutes after the start on the first leg the Vanitie went by the Resolute. The lead increased until the fourth leg, when the Resolute recovered two minutes.
 After passing the Resolute on the first leg, the Vanitie luffed around the first mark three minutes and 19 seconds to the good. The Vanite increase her lead to six minutes and IA seconds at the second mark The Resolute picked up two min utes after passing the third mark.
 At the fifth mark the Vanitie was five minutes and IS seconds to the good. On the last leg the Vanitie pulled away still further and sped across the finish line a consistent winner There will be three open sea contests next week off Sandy Hook.
