A SENATORIAL RACE
Idaho Republicans Have a TRAN

THREE STRONG MEN ARE UP
The state Convention VIII Formally Nom.
tnate ShOup's Successor Other
Offices go Begging.

BOISE, Idaho, June 12.-Chairman VIII.
son of the republican state committee
has issued formal call for the state
convention in this city August 8. The
call directs. county committees to give
thirty days notice of the time and
place of holding county conventions.
The call also states that the PROPOSE.
ton to name candidate for United
States senator will be submitted to the
convention, and in case of Affirmative
action the convention will name one.
The jasty proposition has been thor
oughly discussed through the state since
the state committee meeting last
month. A5large proportion of the re-
publican plpers" of the state have ia.
dorsed the proposition, including the
Paris Post, the Idaho organ of Mormon
republicans. Mr.. Wilson, chairman Of
the state committee, has advice from
all parts of the state and he is author.
ity for the state ment that the senatorial
proposition. will be Endorsed by the con-
ventien by a large ma joxity. .-f.eti
The senatorial candidates are Swec'.

abilityof Shoup becoming a candidate
In case Sweet cannot be nominated.
Thus far there are but few candidates
for state Offices, except the present in
cumbents. The situation 80 far as the
governorship and member of congress
are concerned. is ,embarrassed.by the
fact that other available candidates for
both positions are hesitating about en-
tering. the contest untilit IL known that
Sweet and Mcconnell will not be can
didates for their present positions.
Both are avowed candidates for the
senate. One favors< ,nomination by the
convention; the other opposes it; one
wants reconciliation for governor.
while the other 10 willing to have the
state convention settle his claims 10
the United States senatorshlp. Thus
far nc person has consented TO become
candidate for either position. Either
of the present incumbents would be
nominated without opposition, but the
convention will not be likely, in view
of the heretofore expressed sentiment
of the. people, to renominatc either the
present congressman or governor with
out an express promise that their terms
will not be interrupted by senatorial
ambition. .,s....s.I l,..4. 81 T.. a-,
Both Sweet and Mcconnell have ?
strong following for the senatorship.
Mr.. Hepburn has many warm supporters
in south Idaho and is likely to become
a formidable senatorial candidate.

GUARDIAN OF THE COIN.
C. r. Berry Appointed Assistant Trea'
urer Of tho United States.

C.. r. Berry Appointed Assistant Treas
urer Of tho United States.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-The president
has sent to the senate the nomination
of Campbell p. Be:ry to be assistant
treasurer of the United States at San
Francisco.
The office to which C. p. Berry has
been appointed has large responsible
tiles and comparatively small salary.
The bond is now 5000. 600. Before the
incumbe Mt, John p. Jackson, took the
Office the assistant treasurer was re-
quired to give bond for $500, 900, on
which his sureties were jointly as we'll
as severally liable for the whole
amount. Colonel Jackson obtained per-
mission to give a bond on which each
of his sureties were severallY liable
only for the amount for which he justi-
fed. To secure this concession he con-
scented that the amount of the bond be
increased from 100000 to $500, 900.
Colonel Jackson's sureties-each surety
justifying for s10O,O9O-are Leland
Stanford, Claus Spre:kel Alvinza
Hayward, John p. Jones, George G.
Perkins and Charles N. FELTON,.
The salary fixed by law is $1,000 a
year, but for several years an appropri.
alton of only $4,000 year for salary
has been made, and the assistant treas
urer receives but this amount.
At the present time the sub-treasury
of the United States, the affairs of
which Mr.. Berry will direct, contains
only $37 100000. When Colonel Jack
son took the office the vaults contained
ST., 100000. During his term several
shipments of coin to the east were
made. The first shipment was $50, 00O,-
900. Since that time 81 .OOO, 900, S., OOO,-
900, S., OOO, 900 and 81, SOC, 900 have been
sent to New York. So secret were
kept the facts about these shipments
that no information about any of them
was made public except concerning the
first shipment of $50, 900, 900. No news
of this transportation was given ont
until the coin had crossed the danger.
on. part of the trip and was in the pop
ulous part of the cast. Then the pres
ence of armed guards on the cars and
the speed Of the train attracted atten-
tion and the truth about the shipment
reached the public.
During Colonel Jackson's term no dis.
asters have occurred, but in each Of
two former administrations the assist
ant treasurer has had trouble.
During Charles N. Felton's term
nearly $4,000 was paid on forged
check. During the term of Samuel H.
Brooks $4,000 was taken from the
vaults. By acts of congress passed at
the same session, both Mr.. FELTON, and
Mr.. Brooks were relieved of personal
responsibility for the amounts lost to
the government.

commended an enlarg sment of the

building of proper vault for the pres.

farm, and had found it satisfactorily
conducted in ., cry way.
Considerable space was given by the
Jury to the consideration of the &C
counts and Standardization of the var
ious county cfacers, as they were re-
quested by the judge to give these sub

LEWISTON'S PROSPECT.
Crops We're Never Looking Better-7 h
Flood Damage Small.

Flood Damage Small.
LEWISTON, June 12.-Never before in
the history of agriculture was there
such prospect for a bountiful harvest.
The fall wheat south of this place, with
the aid of the present cool weather, is
filling out nicely. The most adverse
weather ever experienced In this sec
tion could not cause a failure of the
fall sown grain. The early spring SOW
Ing is heading out, while the late sown
is in the sheath. With a few weeks
more of average summer weather the
late sowing will be past the stage at
which it is sometimes affected with
drouth. Several farmers are already
cutting fall sown wheat for hay. The
crops Immediately north are looking
well and promise a large yield. Not
wtthstanding the low price of wheat,
the acreage sown is fully as large as
former years. .,. -. l..... !.
There will be very large fruit crop
harvested along the river this season.
There will possibly be shortage on
grapes only, on account of the late
frost. ... ,
The high water has strewn the shores
of the river with driftwood, more than
compromising for the damage done this
city, which is estimated to Be in the
neighborhood of 81 900, equally divided,
no one losing heavily. The vault of the
First National bank settled slightly,
and for over a week the combination
has persisteptly resisted the cashier
endeavors to unlock it. Basement:
were speedily pumped out, fences and
sidewalks repaired, and in few days
there will be nothing but a few water
marks to remind US of Snake rivers

At Yale total fall of twenty-five inches

CATION of the Methodist church turned
