REPUBLICANS AT BOISE.
Astonishing Statements and Absurd
Misrepresentation.

Boise CITT, ldano, Oept fl ne
first public meeting of the repub-
1icans, during the present campaign,
was held at the Opera House last
Monday evening. 1t was presided
over by Major Joe. Huston, who, in
his opening remarks said that 1t
was the intention of the republic
can party to discuss nothing but
live issues, during the present cam
paisn. He said the tariff would
cut but little figure, except 80 Tar
as related to the duty on lead. 1t
is probable the gentleman intended
to say "argentiferous galena Ores"
which his party placed on the free
list in 1867, and has maintained it
there for the past twenty-three years.
The Major went on to speak OF the
Mormon issue, how the republicans
have stricken down polygamy and
the dangers of the re-establishment
of democratic rule in the premises.
After some futher remarks upon
similar olive issues" he introduced
Gov. Shoup to the meeting,
The governor commenced his
speech by stating that this was the
most important political campaign
ever held in Idaho, or that ever
would be. The republican party
promised to suppress polygamy in
Idaho, and had done So; it had
promised to protect the lead and
silver interests, and succeeded:
During the coSzse OF his remarks
he paid high compliment to- Ben.
Wilson, his competitor, and said
that most democrats were loyal and
he did not know but that they all
were. He did not believe in deal
ing in any but live issues. The
governor said that after the bill
segregating the nothern counties
had passed congress, Gov. Steven
son telegraphed to Grover Cleve-
land to veto it, which the President
did. For this he was entitled to
credit. But Hosea B.. Eastman
took the dispatch to the telegraph

greatly delighted the juvenile portion
of the audience. Rev. G. j. Byrne was
received with a heartily burst OF ap-
plause as he stepped upon the stage.
He graphically sketched many inter
esting and pathetic scenes from the En-
erald Isle, and paid hearty tribute to
the present leader, Charles Stewart Par
nell. The Hibernan rifles, under the
command of Capt. R. j. Fitzgerald,
drilled with such celebrity and uniform
ity that they elected plenty of merri-
ment and applause from the audience.
The opening exercises delayed the dra-
matte performance until nearly 1920
o'clock. The drama Est. Patrick's

TALKED ON TARIFF.
Gen. Baker Gives Union Leaguers

Gen. Baker Gives Union Leaguers

"The Tariff and Its Relations to the
Industries of Minnesota was on for
discussion at the Union league last
night, and it served to call out a good
sized gathering of jim Blaine's party.
Nearly all of the old warehouses were
there, but the young Republicans pre-
dominated, among whom was Tim
ByrneS, home on vacation.
who smiled not so much as usual, but
cheWed good deal OF tobacco or gum.
John Day Smith opened the ball with a
series of resolutions, afterward discussed
by him at some length, which declared
that, Minnesota being adapted to the
production of jute, hemp and Sisal
grass, the manufacture Of these ma
terials at home should be restored by
high protective tariff; that the league
indOrSes the Republican party'S aim to
bring about general revision and re-
adjustment Of the tariff, but that such
revision should be on a protective
basis.
Gen. J. Il. Baker, of Mankato, Farm
er'S alliance man, low tariff advocate
and Republican-rather an incOngruouS
conglomeration, but real one-fol-
lowed with fOrty-fVe-minute speech
in favor OF low tariff. Gen. Baker re-
pudiated the idea that so-called protec-
tion is the cornerstone of the Repub
lican party. He argued that the pres
ent high tariff, which is ~ per cent
but an IS per cent tax, was imposed
solely to pay off the war debt
and as matter Of eXpediency. He de-
clared that the Republican party had
pledged itself to remove this tax when
the need for it had ceased, but that the
pledges had not been kept. He claimed
that Blaine, by his strong personality,
had forced the protective tariff doctrine
upon the Republican party; that the
scheme of protection, alleged to be
designed to benefit the country's
industries, affords not whit of
protection to the farmer, who fur
nisheS SO per cent OF the country's
exports; that under it the producer is
growing poorer every day, and that, if
it were ever benefit to the country,
that time has gone by, leaving it now
source of evil to the best interests Of
the nation. Gen. Baker was ready with
fact and figure to prove his statements,
and believed that he knew whereof he
spoke. since he was delegate to the
Republican convention which nomi-
mated John G. Fremont for the presi-
dency, and had been an active Repub-
lican ever since.
The high tariff men tried to corner
Baker and to catch him mapping, but
failed. General discussion followed. 1t
was expected that Gov. Merriam's low
tariff break would come in for little
attention, but the embryo politicians
seemed to be afraid of that matter.

The Celebration at Minneapolis a

The 18th of March dawned bright and
clear, and st. Patrick's memory was
greeted by the warmest day Miuneapo-

quiet on the streets, for the reason that
most of the local Irish organizations had

was in command. The Hibernian
Rifles and the different commands of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians also
turned out in goodly numbers and de-
parted to take part in the parade.
Special services were held in all the
Catholic churches, and many of the
marching organizations attended in
body before taking the train for st.

had made elaborate preparations for

A SMALL ATTENDANCE.
The Board of Trade Meeting Not a
BIG Success,

The recent order allowing only direct
ors to vote was probably the cause for
the small attendance at the board of
trade meeting yesterday morning. The
finance committee. through Its chair
man, Nelson Williams, reported on the
proposition handed in last week by G.
II. Miller, offering to furnish the board
with 1000 copies of his publication,
points on Minneapolis" at SIS per
thousand, or 5000 lots at $l2. Mr.. Will
Jams stated that after careful cOnSid-
Grafton the committee had decided 10
request Mr.. Miller to furnish 500 copies
of the work gratis, for the reason that
he had disposed of some $4,000 copies of
the book to merchants of Minneapolis
on the Endorsement of the board of
trade.
A communication had been previously
submitted from the national board of
trade, asking that $40 annual dues be
sent to its secretary. There was pre-
vailing opinion that membership in
the national board was of no benefit to
the local association, but after some
little discussion j. t. Wyman moved
that the national membership be con-
tinued and the money sent. This mo-
ton was carried. A motion by Judge
Atwater, that the secretary be in
Structed to discontinue the membership
after the present year was carried. This

The Council Committee Adjourns
Without Taking Further Testi-
mOnV

The committee charged with the in
vestigation of the alleged peculiar per-
formances" on the part of certain alder
men. after three days rest. met in the
council chamber yesterday to listen to
further testimony. When the commit
tee adjourned Friday without examin-
ing any witness it was confidently
stated by some of the committeeman
that Arthur j. Elliott, who it is al
legged had practically agreed to bride
certain city officials to yacate Water
street, would appear before the commits
tee to tell what he knew OF the matter.
The committee desires to call Mi. Eli
oft as the next witness, but Mr.. Elliott
did not put in an appearance, and the
committee adjourned until 10 o'clock to-
morrow morning.

tee.
II don't know. But you can say this
for me: Ii | had the power to compel
his attendance he would have been here
long before this. | am doing every
thing | can personally to get him here.
and if he won't come here l can't help
it,
Should Mr.. Elliott appear before the
committee he would either have to deny
the statements he made to Emerson Cole
and to E. NJ. Johnson, which would
naturally place him in very bad light,
or he would have TO confirm their
stories. One of the attorneys in the
case has declared that if the statements
made by Elliott to Aid. Cole and john
sou are true, then Elliott could not tes-
tify without eliminating himself, as it
is an offense to either offer or to accept
a bride, and no court can make man
give testimony which would criminate
himself. The general opinion expressed
by the peple in the council chamber
yesterday was that the whole thing
would end in an attempted general
whitewashing of those whose names
have been drawn into the scandal, and
that the policy of the committee would
be TO meet from time to time and adj
journ until after the excitement occa-
stoned by the charges and the facts
drawn out by the testimony already
taken had died out.

STAYS WHERE 1T Is.
The Law Library Not to BE Moved
From Temple Court.

The Hennepin County Bar associa-
ton met yesterday afternoon in it's
library rooms in Temple Court, to con-
slider and to take some action in refer
ence to the location Of its valuable
library. The association was incorpo-
rated about six years ago, by the law
yers of the city. and when the Temple
Court building was completed, the pro-
prietOrs of that building ffered it
library rooms at merely nominal rent,
which was accepted, and the library
has since been located there.
The collection of books is val
ued at something like $4,000,
and is quite an inducement to lawyers
to locate near ita Some time ago the
proprietors of the new Guaranty Loan
building proposed, as an inducement TO
get the library to move into that build
ing, not only to give it free rental, but
also to donate $500 year to assist IN
defraying its expenses. Naturally
enough Messrs. Herrck Bros. did not
wish to lose it, and offered to donate
$1,000 year and free rental to keep it
where it is. The lawyers who go into
the Guaranty Loan building want
ed the library near them,
and those in Temple Court were
equally as arduous to keep it handy to
themselves. So that august body of
speechmakerS met to consider two
propositions. and there were in the
neighbOrhood of thirty forensic efforts
fired off, upon all phases of the subject;
which, however, were lost to the world,
inasmuch as there were no stenogra-
pliers present to take them down.
There were motions and seconds. and
substitutiOns, after which there was 4
general cry of "Question." Question"
following which points Of order were
raised and argued until it was difficult
for Chairman X. Russell or any one else
to tell what question was before the
house. After two hours session the
association finally got down to business
and voted to receive the repart Of the
executive committee recommending that
Herrick Bros proposition be accepted,
and that the library remain where it is,
the prevailing opinion being that mas
much as the association had signed
lease for ten years at 81 per year
rental for its present quarters, it
was in some sense morally bound to
stand by it.

VERMoNTERs ORGANIZE.
Steps Taken Toward the Forma-
ton of State Association.

ldAcu IO"dru TIC
ton of a State Association.
About thirty sturdy specimens of Yer
mont manhood met at the West hotel
last evening and took the preliminary
steps toward organizing a State Yer
mont association. Col. NJ. Ii. Sessions
was elected temporary chairman, and j.
W. Griffin temporary secretary. Many
of the most we'll known Minneapolis
business men were present, and they
grew quite enthusiastic as Col. Sessions
and l.. A. Grant delivered impromptu
addresses on the greatness of Yer
mont'S past history, and the pride that
every one shOuldfeel because they were
sons from the Green mountains. 1t was
stated that meeting was being held in
st. Paul for the same purpose, and that
there was every evidence that the pro-
posed state organization would be an
assured success. A committee consist
ing of l.. A. Grant, c. H. Benton, j. w.
Griffin, II. G. Belden and Mr.. Perry was
appointed to draft constitution and by
laws, and to confer with the st. Paul
committee toward the formation of the
state association. All those present
lett their names and addresses with the
secretary, and also tnat of such of their
friends as were natives of Vermont.
All Minnesota people that are natives
of that state will be urged by letter to
join the association, and branches will
be shortly organized in other towns of
Minnesota. All Vermont men are re-
quested to send their names to Secretary
j. W. Griffin, 60 Loan and Trust build
ing. The next meeting will be held at
the call of the committee. probably at
the West hotel, when officers will be
elected and steps taken for permanent
organization.

HURT In A RUNAWAY.

Jailer Riley Gets His Head Cut
on the Street Curbing.
Jailer James Riley met with a painful
accident yesterday, which, while not
particularly serious in its consequences,
will yet cause him considerable dis
comfort for some time, and will leave
an ugly scar. While driving down
Sixth avenue south his horse became
unmanageable and started to run away.
Riley could not control him. and, when
Fourth street was reached. the horse
turned so suddenly as to throw Riley
out of the buggy. His head struck the
curbiDg, receiving bad cash on the
left side of his head, the scalp being
slit about four inches from the fore
head back to point above the ear and
then torn away for about two inches,
leaving the skull bare. The dirt of the
street, into which the cut was thrust,
aggravated the pain. The wound was
dressed, and he is now feeling better.
Riley may consider himself fortunate in
not getting fractured skull.
