The bill introduced by Pfeffer, May 26,
''to increase the currency. to provide for

Much OF Pfeffer's speech is in denuncia-
ton OF usury, which he said was breaking
down the republic. The republic would
go down unless the people were saved, and
there was no way of saving them except
by destroying usury. He believed Con-
gress had perfect authority under the con-
stitut1on to lend money TO the people, as
much as to provide for carrying mails or
packages or determining rates which rail-
roads may charge for carrying freight or
passengers.
AT the close of his speech the bill went
over without action.

Some large cigars have been made for

length, ranging in dismetea from 6 inches,
enlarged models of the best brands made

The largest cigar actually smoked is by
the better class of the Philippine islanders,

BOISE BRIEFS.
The Board of Trustees, Arrested

The Harrison and anti Harrison Men Have
Already Commenced to Quarrel-Pecu-

BOISE. Ida, June 13.-lSpecial telegram
to The HERALD. The beard OF trustees of
the town of Nampa, composed of John E.
Stearns Hon. James Mckee, Frank Given
and DR.. T. H. Kohler, who were arrested
on the 10th inst. on q complaint sworn out
by John Young, charging them with
usurping office to which they were not
legally elected, were this afternoon dis
charged by Probate Judge w. f. Reynolds.
There IL already few warrants against
them pending in the district court, and the
criminal prosecution is considered to be a
novice, and it Is the opinion of the bar that
the election Was legal in toto. The general
feeling is that the proceedings were in
stituted by John Young for spite, because
the board would not appoint him marshal.
Much bad blood has been eugendered and
there is no telling where the trouble will
end.
REPUBLICANS FIGHTING EACH OTHER.
The stalwart Harrison men of Boise held
secret lmpromptu meeting Saturday and
arranged for grand ratification meeting
tonight. The leaders of this movement
were Hon. E. ]. Curtis, Charles Kingsley,
A. H. Tyner, j. S. Bogart, H. S. Travis,
d. T. Miller, S. L. Upton and o.
w. Smith and number of other staunch
Harrison men. Charles Kingsley was
made chairman of the committee on ar
rangements and took in person notice of
the meeting to the Statesman for pubilca-
ton. 1t was set up and put in the form,
but that journal, which is rabid Blaine
paper, would not publish it. The managing
editor ordered it taken from the forms. A
card from the Blaine men giving notice of
meeting tonight was substituted
bearing the signatures of E. L. Wag-
goner and Edgar Wilson, presidents
Of the Young Mems and Abraham
Lincoln Republican clubs respectively.
The intention OF this m.ve evidently was
to give the Harrison men the fragile daz-
zle.' Tonight the band paraded the streets
and shortly after fair audience assembled
at Sonna's opera house to listen to num-
Der Of orators, but x-Governor Cnrtis was
the only speaker, the Blaine men being
conspicuously absent.
The Republicans are badly split here
and the breach is still widening. The
Blaine men are scheming to capture the
band wagon and leave the Harrisonites in
the lurch, but the Harrison men have been
TOO pronounced to let this work.
The federal officials under Harrison in
Idaho have shown treachery to their
chief unparalleled since the days of Bene
dict Arnold.

A Steamer With Large Number Of Students
on Board-It Is Thought They Are Lost.
CHICAGO, June 13.-The graduating class
of the preparatory school of the North
western university, numbering ninty-seven
ladies and gentlemen, took the steamer Ju-
liet at the Denpster street pier, Evanston,
at 4 o'clock this afternoon, for Highland
Park, where they were going for picnic
and class jubilee. No word has been re-
ceived from them up to midnight, and
anxious relatives OF those on the excursion
have spent the night telephoning and tele-
graphing to various points endeavoring to
secure information of the whereabouts of
the picnickcre.
Most of those who went are students
who graduated from the preparatory de-
partment this morning. The last trains
into Evanston brought no tidings, and it
is certain the parties left there at mid
night for Highland park, Lake Bluff and
Waukegan, but up to l a. m. no word has
been peceived.
The telegraph Office at Evanston and ct
College were crowded all evening with
anxious friends and relatives. A short
time ago telegram was received from
Waukeegan, saying an excursion boat
with sixty people Or more on board had ar
rived there this evening. Nothing more
definite has been obtained. but messengers
have been dispatched to Waukeegan.

The torpedo at that time was admittedly
barely out of the experimental stage, and
since then it has been "perfected' at this
generous cOuntry's expense. Its state OF
perfection was demonstrated last Tuesday
in the presence Of the general, the duke OF
