SPEECH OF HON JOHN HALEY
ON THE ANNEXATION Bill.

been so much talk, has been bone
of contention for the last twenty
years. A large minority Of the PEG.
pie living in that portion OF the Ter
ritorv have wanted annexation To
Washington Territory. There is no
doubt about that fact in my mind.
The people Of the southern portion OF
Idaho, however, have objected to
until the last two years. Up to that
time their objection was u serious one
Three years ago last fall the people
of the north were So embltter,
against the people of the south be-
cause they could not be annexed that
both political parties of these rorth.
crn counties refused to participate IN
the Territorial convention. They
called an independent convention for
the purpose of nominating mail to
run on the aunexa ion question with
the view OF sending him to Washing
ton CITY to work for TIE annexation
of those counties to Washington Ter
ritory. whether he was elected or not.
But the Republican candidate was a
little sharper than the Democratic
candidate, and he rushed up north
and pledged himself to go for annex
alton, and they took him as their cam
didate with the understanding down
south, | am told by good authority,
that he did not intend to work very
hard for it.
However, he secured almost unani-
mous vote of these northern counties
and was elected But although he
wa elected, he did not secure their
annexation. AT the recent election,
or rather at the conventions which
preceded the election, the Republic
ans placed section in their platform
pledging their party to do all IN their
power to secure the annexation, anil
their Delegate also was pledged to
do whatever was in his power, il
elected, to annex these northern coun-
ties to Washington Territory. The
Democratic party took the matter un-
der advisement, talked it over, and
after some consideration of the sub.
iect, concluded that they would also
put the same plank in their platform
or Substantially the same thing, fla
voring this annexation. l gave then
due notice that il that plank was in
serted in the platform, and they nom
mated me, that if elected would TT.
to give this portion of the Territory
away to Washington Territory.
now propose to keep good the
pledges made by my party and my
self by trying to have them annexed
TO Washington Territory. They have
expressed desire to go to Washing
ton, and | do not propose to keel
them from going; they have beer
very troublesome. | hope the bill
will pass to annex them to Washing
ton Territory. The Legislature il
1885 passed memorial requestin!
that these counties be annexed t
Washington Territory, but with tn
proviso that they should pay thei
portion of the debt of the Territory
Just as this bill provides.
Now at this late date some of thes
northern counties, | understand, ar
kicking about it when they find tina
they can really be annexed to Wash
ington Territory, and they do no
want it near so bad as they though
they did. Some of them say the,
prefer to 60 to Montana Territory
and for that reason they send in her
and oppose the passage OF the bll

OCTOBER.


October comes across the hill
Like some light ghost she Is SO still,
Though her sweet checks are rosy;
And through the floating thistlo-down
Her trailing, brior-tanged gown
Cleans like Il crimson posy.
The crickets in the stuble chime;
Lanterns lash ont at milking time;
The daisy'S lost her rulics;
The wasps he hOncycd pippins try;
\ film is over the blue sky,
y spell the river muilles.
The golden rod fades in the sun:
The spiders gauzy veil is spun
Athwart the dropping scdgcs;
The nuts drop softly from their burrs;
No bird-song thc dim silence stirs.-
\ blight is ON The hedges.
But filed with fair content Is she,
As II no frost could ever bc,
To dim her brown eyes lustcr:
And much she knows OF fairy folk
That dance beneath the spreading oak
With wiulSlinE mirth ana buster,
She listens when the dus&y ewes
step softly GA the fallen lelyos,
As if fer mes age cheering;
And it must bc that shc can hear,
Beyond November grim and drcar,
The feet of Christmas nearing.

Marching with dignifed step to the head of the car, he turns quickly, and casts one searching look first down one side and then down the other. His brows, firmly knit, betoken the deep thought which is ''evoluting" within his mighty brain. He pulls out notebook, applies pencil, mods his head three times as he writes, turns again, opens the door and disappears into the next car, where the process is repeated.
