A Washington, D. c.. special to
the Salt Lake Tribune under date
of the 18th inst, gives the following
encouraging news for idaho;
"A stro' & delegation from Idal o
spent the past week in Washington,
and are much encouraged over the
prospects of Statehood for that Ter
ritory. This delegation called upon
Senators Plat and Cullom of the
Senate Committee on Territories,
and both gentlemen assured the
delegation that Idaho's admi .sion
should be the first thing submitted
at the coming session Congress in
December. The Senate and House
committees have already recon-
mended the admission of Idaho by
a unanimous vote, and do not hesi-
tate to declare that immediate adj
mission will follow the reassembling
of Congress. They are also unani-
nous in the opinion that Idaho
should formulate a Constitution
during the ensuing summer in De-
cember. 1t is the universal belief
here that Statehood would immedi-
ately follow The Idaho people

ever the Right Games Uopermost."

During the last campaign TIE
TRIBUNE was severely censured for
opposing imported talent to repre-
sent us in the legislature. We
were told that we must encourage
t e great minds from the east
wi o We're willing 10 sacrifice them
selves for the enlightenment and
advancement of the antediluvian
"moss-backs" who made civiliza
ton possible in Idaho. We were
given to understand that instead
of comforting honor on these bril-
liant imported intellects by placing
them in the Legislative halls, the
people were the parties honored,
and should be humbly and duly
grateful to the benevolent and conde-
scending solons, who would shed
the benignant light of their wisdom
and experience for the good of the
common herd. AS the Imperial
Squirt, of Pennsylvania, remarked:
1T is but stepping stone TO some
thing better" Well, the carpet
Dagger got there" by majority
of the intelligent voters. Listen
to the judgment passed by his own
party paper-the Idaho Statesman,
which endorsed and supported his
canvas:
"Kurtz, of Nanpa, who disgraced
Ada county in the Legislature last
winter, as far as it lay in his fee
BILE power to do so, and who fell
far below the moderate expecta-
tons of his indulgent friends, prov
ing himself a most pitiable failure,
is now engaged in the contcmpti-
bic business of trying to prejudice
the minds of visitors to the Terri
tory and to the capital city against
the men who came here when this
country was a savage wilderness,
into which beings Of his ilk would
not have dared to enter, and who
made it possible for worthless
drones like him to find an unde-
served homes here. Query: How
many thousand beings like this
Kurtz would be required now to
build, in one hundred years city
like Boise, or to change the face of
the Territory as it has been chang
ed by the very men he affects to
revile and traduce to-day? Unfor-
tunate indeed are the strangers and
visitors who are reduced to the nee
essity of receiving their impress
sions of this country and of its
pioneer builders from this little
squirt of Nampa."

The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1889-03-16

The Territorial Supreme Court
Monday rendered a decision in the
mandamus case growing out of tho
acts of the late Legislature in re-
gard to formation of the counties of
Gilmore and Logan. The Court
sustains the demurrer and refuses
the writ of mandamus. Chief JUS
tice' Weir and Justice Logan assent
ing; Justice Berry dissenting.
The pith of the decision is con-
tanned iii the following excerpts:
There is no dispute that the law
places no obligation upon Curtis as
secretary other than that he must
receive the journal from the clerks
of the Legislature and record the
same. From the language of the
statutes it is clearly the duty of the
clerk to make up such records as
he deems proper to be delivered to
the secretary and deliver the same.
This he has done, and that is the
only duty imposed upon him by
the statute. The question
whether the papers so delivered by
the clerk to the secretary are cor
rect or not, is one which this court
cannot entertain"
1T is contcnded with great zeal
by the counsel for the relator that
the journal so delivered is not the
journal of the legislature, and as SO
corrected, that the same be filed
with the secretary. This position
is wholly untenable. Certainly
this court would not correct so inn
portant document as the Journal
of Legislature, or what purports
to be the journal of a legislature"
"The principle Of law is settled
beyond controversy that a court
will not 60 behind the journal of a
legislature to ascertain what was
done by that body."
Under this decision the counties
of Gilmore and Logan will imme-
diately organize.
The HALEY News Miner says the
case has been appealed to the IT, s.
Supreme Court.

The Tribune has noticed several
long and windy editorials in few
of its Territorial exchanges for and
against statehood which certainly
betoken q hair-splitting tendency
on the part of the writers or an
added brain. No sane man can
but believe that the benefits of
statehood are many and also
vast improvement over our Terri
torial form of government; neither
does any sane man believe that with
statehood will come great wealth,
population and prosperity; state
hood will be but a stepping stone to
this condition. We have every
thing to gain and nothing to lose
by admission into the Union, and
with two U. S. Senators and one
Representative of her own working
for silver, irrigation and western
interests generally, Idaho will sure
~ gain.

A disgusting tale of Chinese
outrages is now being told in the
criminal court at Milwaukee. For
some time past the officers of the
Humane Society have been aware
of the fact that the Chinese laun-
drymen of that place have been en-
ticing young girls into their dcns,
but it was not until lately that the
full extent of the horrible practices
committed by them were disclosed.
At the instigation of the officers of
the society several Cinnamon were
arrested, their examination taking
place this week. Ten little girls
ranging from 8 to IA years of age,
confronted the prisoners; and then
began a tale of horror, the disgust
ing details of which are seldom
cqualed. The story of one is the
story of all the others: The first
witness was the girl whose case first
reached the ears of the officer of the
Humane Society. She is about Is
years old, nicely dressed and hair
worn in schoolgirl fashion. After
much persuasion she told her story:
II have been going TO these Chi
nese laundries ever since new-year's
day-about II times altogether
and the first time I was going home
with two other girls. The China
men sometimes gave US 5 cents,
sometimes 10 cents, and sometimes
Is cents. He also gave me skates
and bracelets" When the question
was asked what the Cinnamon did
with her she began to weep, and it
took the combined persuasive pow
er of the judge and district attor-
ney to induce her to proceed. She
said she was led into the bed room
by the Cinnamon and tfSse was
outraged by the celestials. The
other girls went through the same
shameful proceedings.
AS sickening as these details are
they afford wholesome lesson to
those sentimentalists of our
t mes whose tender ~ heart,
are touched by the lamb
like dernea.or Of the almond
eyed aliens. Let the sanity puri-
tans of the east read these disclo-
sures and then pray and entreat
our lawmakers to remove the re-
strictions which now. prevent these
lustful wretches from ovelrlnnn 3
our entire country. Such course
would in keeping with their record
of the past. In the meantime all
country-loving Americans rejoice
that the tide of the Chinese plague
has been stopped by congressional
enactment-the laws of nature will
soon settle those remaining
