Senators Thayer and Tipton have, at last, secured a foreign appointment for Nebraska. Hon. Isaac Lewis Gibbs, well known in Nebraska, as a former member of the Legislature of the territory and a citizen of Nebraska City, has been appointed and. confirmed Governor of the Territory of Idaho. The family of Gov. Gibbs is still residing in this place and we presume his appointment will be charged up to the Radical Party of Otoe County. |
