QUITE EXPECTED.
Wholesale Bribery, COmmendable Action
BY the Governor.

Boise, Idaho, March Especial
to the Miner Startling revelations
regarding the use of boodlers in the
Idaho legislature were made to-day
to your correspondent Acting upon
information furnished by Representa-
tive Anderson that more Doodle had
been employed and less accomplished
hy boodlers than during any session
on record, a still hunt for details was
commenced.
w. Il. b. Crow. a lobbyist from
Bingham county. when questioned,
admitted that he had bribed many
members Of the senate some Of whom
cheated him out of his money. He
was working for the passage Of bill
locating the State Agricultural Col
lrge at Idaho Falls. The bill was
passed by the house, but certain sen.
ators held out so long for big money
that the bill died on the secretary's
desk. Crow said tonight that mum.
her Of the senators sold out twice
and three times, and one enterprising
sOlOn took four brides, two from the
friends and two from the opponents
of the Idaho Falls bill
Crow gave the names of these cor
rupt men, and he drfies any person to
successfully contradict his statements
Crow informed Representative Ander-
son that he gave one senator $1,000
to vote for the Idaho Falls bill
Learning that the senator was about
to go to tue capitol to vote against
the measure he attempted to imprison
him in his room. A lively struggle
ensued, during which the senator
drew knife In self.defense Grow
was compelled to kick the dishonest
law-makcr in a delicate place, from
the effects of which he was i'll several
days. The disclosures of Crow and
other lobbyists have created quite a
sensation here, and an investigation
may follow.

THE MORMONS AS VOTERS.

The Acknowledgement of the Nor
mons by the Legislature was in accord
ance with the expressed wishes of all
parties. 1t is truth, admitted now.
that there never should have been
any wholesale Acknowledgement
But at last the wrong has been right
Ell and these people are made voters
with equal rights of every ether citi-
zen at the ballot box. How they will
vote when the time comes is the per,
picking question of the day. Some
claim they are naturally and instinct
lively Democrats and will vote the
Democratic ticket; others say they
will go with the Republicans because
it is part of contract and the ap-
pointment of so many bishops to
office will force 1t that way. But
The News takes it that their votes
will have to be sought for and obtained
as one would seek for and obtain the
votes of other men, They are not
going in Que drove to the polls as
sheep rushing through the pasture
gate. They will not all go with one
party.
Such a course would draw upon
them the criticism Of by-gone days
when it was charged that they had no
will aud say of their own. hut were
forced to act in concert by the heads
of the church. Their leaders are no
fools even though their mouths have
been closed politically for years.
1t would not he good politics for
the MOrmons, and they know it, to
vote solidly for one ticket; they can
not afford in their political infancy.
to antagonize any one party by a
solid opposition to it, and they cannot
be bought with few county offices
to take that course.
When the time comes there will he
Mormon Democrats. Mormon Repub-
licans and Mormon Populists all with
their respective candidates for office
and woe be unto the old Mormon
candidate who shall arise and oppose
them, be he Democrat, Republican or
Populist.

BINGHAM COUNTY.

Bingham county still has a local
habitatior and name" She still
has place upon the maps of the
state and of the United States. The
despoilers have robbed her Of parts
of her territory, but she still lives
under bright sun and clear, blue
skies. They hGve taken from her
lands but they could not rob her of
her bright skies, of her balmy and
salubrious atmosphere, of her clear
and full running streams, of her fer
tile fields, of her cattle upon thou
sand hills, nor of the noble, generous,
free-hearted and intelligent people
who live within her boundaries. They
have taken away some of her true
and noble people, they have divided
neighborhoods and severed the ties
of old associations, but the remnant
left will be true to the dear old county
and true to themselves.
When the spring time comes the
wild flowers will bloom upon her
mountain sides as beautifully as ever;
when the harvest comes her fields will
yield their heaps of golden grain as
abundantly as before the despoier
came; when the frusts come the herds
Of beef cattle will roam the foothills
and valleys as fat and sleek as if f,d
in the valley of Bashan, and when
Old Winter binds up the clear run
ming streams and covers the fields
with his snowy feeces her people will
be happy and proud in her home life.
Bingham may be divided, but she
has a noble class of people left who
are neither dead nor sleeping. The
political arena will be opened to them
in two years, and with spears burnish
ed to brightness and with shields
clear and unstained, they will go forth
where the battle RACES Iercest and the
victories won are the greatest.
Grand, old Bingham She may De
little despoiled-a little disfgured |
but her people will emerge from
the struggle as bright lance head
tempered in the FIRE OF battle. Their
power and strength will be felt and |
known in many battles yet to come. |
Long may she live

The Wagon Road.

Governor Mcconnell in his message
TO the house informing that body OF
his approval of the wagon road bill
uses the following language:
u believe that $4,000 of the
amount carried by the bill has been
appropriated for the construction of
roads which will be of little value. "
and again,
awhile think the bill has been
carelessly considered and is unwise in
some Of its provisions, I am also salts
fed that further appropriations will
be asked of future legislatures to com
plete the work, notably that division
down the Salmon river.
believe that as the timber lands
are being rapidly taken up, that 1t
would be dangerous to delay another
two years, and that in the interest of
our land grant the state would be
justified in expanding this money"
The legislature is on record IN this
matter, the governor has spoken and
ii only remains now for the people to
speak and they will speak.
Here is bill for road to be built
carrying with it an appropriation of
$4,000, for which no complete sur
Yey has been made, no reports OF it's
practicabillty nor estimate Of costs
have been presented, and vet the leg
