The Governors guards and the United
States cavalry at Boise City were notified
to repair to Pocatello as soon as possible
and are now en- route. Pocatello is now
almost entirely destitute Of arms, and a
force Of me- over two hundred men is all
that can be mustered for survice. The
ranchmen and cowboys from the surround

The Indians on the reserve number from
/, 200 to 1900, most of whom are Banneeks,

years of age. and quite feeble. Four times

was ne elected-in October. 1870. This was
the only political office he ever held.
though he had been q delegate to national
conventions of his party. notably to the
convention of 1850 at Baltimore. At one
time Mr.. Ryan was a wealthy man. but.
like many other citizens. he was caught in
the crash of the early seventies. and prop
erty in which he had invested much money

to cause the loss of most of his fortune.
He was for years in the Wholesale grocery

Fixing the Character of q Paper Submitted by
Property Holders.
The reason why the contract for paving
Virginia avenue with asphalt has not yet
been let. developed yesterday, and with il
comes out the fact that it is doubtful
whether or not that contract will be let at
all. A committee of property-owners on
the avenue, accompanied by w. L. Taylor.
as attorney, appeared before the Board of
Public Works yesterday to inquire why
no attention had been paid to their remon-
STRANGE. which has been on file with the
board for some time, and which contains
ninety-six names ont Of the 12l property
owners on the street. None of the clerks
or members of the board have said any
thing about the and the board
has paid no attention to it. The document
is q petition for brick. with these words
added: Submitted as q remonstrance."
AS soon as Mr.. Taylor preached the sub
ject President Conduit said: THAT 10 not
n remonstrance and no member Of the COM
mittee Will swear that IL was presented as
such: il he should, every member OF this
board would swear against him."
Il insist" replied Mr.. Taylor. that upon
the face of it IL Is n remonstrance. and that
is all that can be considered by q court,
and this is purely q matter of law"
The man who came In to present that"
said Mr.. Defrees, said 1t was not to be
considered as q remonstrance."
Mr.. Taylor replied that the word of one
man could not control the action of all the
signers. The document showed that il was
submitted as q remonstrance. and be
pointed to the added sentence. Mr.. Con-
duitt said that might have been added
after the paper was filed. but Mr.. Taylor
said the remonstrance had been there in
the Office ever since and nobody could lave
added il. Besides. it would be easy TO
prove by the signers that it was there
when they signed. Mt. Taylor then took
the charter and showed that o remon-
STRANGE by the requisite two-thirds of the
property-owners made al improvement i'm
possible unless the Council passed an or
dinance ordering it. If. in the face of
in plenty of time. the board let a contract
for the Improvement. that contract would
be illegal and the bonds issued under it
would be VOID. He desired to serve notice
on the contractors To that effect.
Messrs. Kenyon and Sherer. of the West
ern Paving Company. the lowest bidder on
the work. who were standing near, said to
n Journal reporter that they would be sat
isfed to take the contract and go ahead
with it. Mr.. Sherer said this was an old
remonstrance. made q year or more ago.
against an action by the Council. and of no
effect against the action of the board. Dir.
Taylor. hearing this remark, turned and
said that could not be true. as il was on q
Board of Public Works blank, and n num-
Der of the property-owners present came
forward and said they had signed the paper
within the last month. Dir. Conduit cut

ILLEGAL PERQUISlTES.
PerrOtt and Others in the City Offices Have Been
Taking NOtarial Fees in Violation of the Law.

OF course. nobody would impugn the mo-
tives of Controller Wocllen or any body else
connected with the great Sullivan admin
istration, but there seems to be q vast
amount of contempt for or ignorance of the
law displayed about the municipal offices.
Mr.. Woollen admits that he does not obey
the letter of the charter in receiving the
money for dog-lIcenses. instead of issuing
them upon the treasurer's receipt, but he
pleads convenience as the excuse for this
violation of the law. He also admitted to
a Journal reporter the other day-and the
same admission has been made to others
that his deputy. Sam Perrott,
frequently collects q notary's fee
Of p cents for taking the oath
of applicants for building permits and
other licenses where affidavits are re- quired.
These fees make In the aggregate q very
handsome little ~perquisite. Likewise, the
clerk In the engineers office gets a hand
some peruuisite IN fees of the same kind
for swearing people TO the correctness of
bills presented to the Board of Public
Works. Ii Is known that Mr. Perrott has
collected n0tarial fees as late as July 9, in
direct violation of law. as enacted by the
last Legislature, approved March z, and
proclaimed last month. The law reads as
follows:
Section L. Be IL enacted by the General As
sembly of the state of Indiana, That Section =
Of an act entitled an act providing for the ap-
pointment or notaries public and defining their
powers and duties. approved June q. 1852, he
amended to read as follows: Section z. No per-
son being an officer In any corporation or aSsOci-
alton. or In any bank possessed OF any banking
powers. shall act as a notary public in the bust
ness OF such bank, corporation or association.
No person holding any lucrative Office shall he a
notary public. and bis acceptance OF such Office
shall vacate his appointment as notary.
Messrs. Perrott, Phipps n Bushong all
ceased to be notaries when that law went
into effect Any oatbs administered by
them since then are void, aud any notarial
fees collected by them since then can Do re-
