SO Far Have Ignored Clagctt's Advice to
Vote for Sweet
Boise City, Idaho, Jan. 29.-When the
Legislature met in joint session today all
the members were present. Two bal
lots were taken without change, the
vote standing Shoup 20, Sweet 10.
Clagett Is. There was a large crowd
present in anticipation of a possible
change, but the spectators were disap
pointed. All excitement has died down
again, and tonight the situation seems
locked tighter than ever. The excite
ment of yesterday appears to have aris-
en- entirely from Judge Clagett's change
of base and advice to the populists to
support Sweet. They show no inclina
ton to follow his advice, though 1t is
supposed he would be able to swing
them.
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Boise, Jan. 29--In the senate Senator
Brownies bill, to remit the interest on
school lands, came up for third read
ing and caused some debate. 1t was
defeated by a vote of 10 to 6. Senator
Watts bill compelling insurance COM
panies to pay full losses, all three
fourths or similar clauses to the con-
trdTy NOTWITHSTANDING, was passed,
Boyce alone voting against it. Senator
Day, by unanimous consent, presented
a joint resolution to amend the consti-
tuition by abolishing the office of dis
trict attorney and to provide for the
election of a prosecuting attorney in
each county. who shall receive a salary
not to exceed $1,000 per year. The reso-
luton was passed under suspension of
the rules.
In the house in committee of the
whole, without debate, the passage of
the Rounds senate bill to repeal the
test oath, was unanimously recommen-
ded. Mr.. Wyman's mining bill, making
radical changes in the state mining
laws, occupied large part of the ses-
sion. Five of the 16 sections were con
sldered and favorably acted upon.

by Warm Remarks

Boise City, Idaho Jan. 31.-The ballot
at noon for senator resulted: Shoup 20.

was taken at o'clock and resulted

sentatives Brown and Hunt We're paired
and Senators Brown and Steen were alb
sent. After the joint session dissolved,
Crane moved to adjourn the house. 1t

was defeated, 20 to 10. Their purpose is
to tie up legislation and thus force the

LOCAL OPTION FORCES.

Organize at Corunna for Aggressive Work.
The friends of local option gathered at Co
runna last Friday in large numbers and
effected permanent organization to secure
the submission to the people of this important
question for decision by ballot. They also
formed plans for bringing out large vote
and by giving tremendous majority show
that the law must be obeyed.
Temporary Chairman Hartwell called the
meeting to order and remarks were made
by Revs. A. Metcalf, of Bancroft, and j. Q.
Cromer, of Owosso, M. l.. Stevens, K. Put
nam, Col Moyses, K. Brown, j. N. Nc
Bride, j. FL. Hartwell and others, covering
in their remarks the entire field of work.
The committee on officers, Rev. Metcalf, K.
l.. Brewer and Cbas. Holman, reported the
following officers, the report being accepted:
President, James N. Mcbride, Owosso;
Vice President, j. II. Hartwell. Hartwell
Vile; Secretary, Rev. w. M. Ward, of
Corunna; Treasurer, Geo. M. Detwiler, Of
Henderson. The convention adjourned
subject to call by the president. 1t is quite
likely a number of meetings will be held
during the next few months and in different
parts q the county.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1895-11-01

Owosso is city Of push and enterprise In
business way and has wide reputation
for 1t. Owosso has entertained by celebra-
tions with great success and In the enter
tanment of bodies of men representing the
business, lodge. church and labor interests
has succeeded far better than most any city
of its size in the country, but In the purely
social ways 1t is not what it ought to be and
this Is due to the fact that our business men
do not realize that the social side OF life Is
to many men of business and the retired
man looking for home and to the farmer
coming to the city to live one of the chief
attractions OF the city. Once year let all
turn out in social way. No better oppor-
tunity Is offered than I'm the annual party
given by Company G. Fifty-three couples
were present Tuesday night. when there
should have been two hundred. 1t would
not be great tax on any business man, it
would assist one of the very worthy and al
most necessary organizations of the city,
help pay for the only building in the city
suited for many important gatherings and
give Owosso the one thing 1t Is lacking to
make 1t the leading city of the state-a So
cial affair to which the state might be invit-
ed and go away as they do from other
knowing and willing to state
the position the city holds.

Not a Candidate.

Within few weeks past the name of
Hon. T. W. Palmer, of Detroit, has been
freely used in all parts of the State IN con.
nection with the republican gubernatorial
nomination in 1896. The endorsements he
had received gave his boom frst-cass
start. Mr.. Palmer throws cold water on
the movement IN letter to the Grand
Rapids Herald, reading as follows:
LARcHMoNT, MANOR, Oct. 81, 1895.
To the editor: Dear sir: - An article
clipped from your valuable sheet headed
palmer In to win," and saying that l was
q candidate for nomination for governor Of
Michigan, has been forwarded to me. 1t is
entirely incorrect / am not candidate
have not had an aspiration that way for six
years, nor can see any combination of cir
cumstances which would induce me to be a
candidate. l hope all my friends will dis
courage the use of my name In connection
ith the republican nomination for 1895.
Very truly yours,
T. w. PALMER.
