THE VOTE REMAINS THE SAME
Sweets Friends Claim Tie VIII BE Elected
by the Populist Vote-Ntw Counties
Agitsting the senate

Boise, Feb. 20.--Despite the prophe-
cies to the contrary, the vote for SEN
ator today showed no change. 1t was:
Shoup 20, Sweet 10, Clagett Is. 1t does
not now seem probable that there will
be any change this week. The claim
emanates from some Sweet sources that
the populists will vote for him tomor-
row or Saturday. 1t is not believed
that there is any possibility of this but
it is the only apparent basis for the be-
lief sometimes expressed that Sweet
will be elected. The situation appears
to be simply that the election of Shoup
involves a disruption of the 49, but the
10 will hang together so long as the
hope of Sweets election is held out
With Saturday now promised as the
day on which Sweet will certainly get
the populists, it is not likely a change
can be brought about until next week,
unless the promise of getting the popu-
list forces be made good, which is al
together improbable, if not entirely inn
possible.
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
The contest between Alturas and Lo-
gan counties is settling down into a
proposition to create two new counties
bill with HALEY as the county seat will
be permitted to go through. The bill
creating Lincoln county with Shoshone
as the county seat will follow. The line
between the counties will follow the di
visions between Camas creek and Ma
lad river
President Mills got another Oppor-
tunity to cast vote today. 1t was on
1T to no a.
cense in cities and towns of more than
100 inhabitants from $500 to $500 per
year and in towns and villages of less
than 100 inhabitants and for taverns
or hotels more than three miles from
any incorporated village. to 500 per
year. The presidents vote killed the
bill. The committee of the whole had
recommended the measure for passage.
The motion in the senate to concur in
the report was tie and Mr.. Mills voted
in the negative The result was greeted
with cheers from the floor and gal
leries.
During the morning session of the
house. the following bills were passed:
Smiths senate bill establishing the
boundary line between Washington and
Idaho counties; the house bill by Mr..
Bennett, fixing eight hours as a days
work of stationary engineers handling
hosting engines or other engines re-
curing so or more horse power; the
house bill by Mr.. Mcmillan, authorizing
an issue of $25O 900 per cent. bonds
for the erection of suitable buildings
of the Mountain Home reform school:
the house bill by Mr.. Neill, repeating
the hospital tax; the house bill by Mr.
Gamble, making farm laborers' liens
preferred claims.
The committee OF the whole took up
Mr. McCarthey's Challis school of mines
bill. The bill has had smooth sailing
until the section locating the school al
Challis was reached, when Mr. Crane
of Kootenai sent up an amendment
substituting Occur d'Alene City foI
Challis; lost: to Is. The bill was rec
commended for passage by a vote of
II to IL.

in the Legislature.

Shoup 10, Sweet 49, Clagett I5-The Day
in the Legislature.
Boise, Feb. 21.-Another day has pass
ed without change in the senatorial
vote. Parkinson and Golden were
paired and the ballot resulted: Shoup
10. Sweet IS, Clagett Is. A republican
caucus and populist caucus were an
nounced for tonight. The republicans
met with % present. The only matter
talked over was the apportionment bill
No action was taken. The populist eau
Gus was called, so it is claimed, at the
instance Of those who desired to go to
Sweet, but the question was not brought
up and the caucus was in session only a
few minutes. 1t was said it was found
impracticable to carry out the purpose
and that it was not desired to have the
question come up and receive adverse
action. This. however, is all mere gos-
sip. The situation has not changed so
far as surface indications are a guide,
though the impression that Shoup will
be elected is quite strong in the Hobbies.
Sweets leaders stoutly deny that Shoup
can be elected. 1t is, however, the judg-
ment of your correspondent that Shoup
viii be elected unless Sweet gets the
populist vote. The election is not likely
TO occur until next week. Both houses
have adjourned until Saturday.
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Boise. Feb. 21.-The following memo
rial to congress was passed by the house
today by a vote of 81 TO 5:

tomorrow afternoon. II is not believed
If the bill passes the house that it will
get through the senate. 1t is not known
what figure the senatorial matter will
cut in the vote on the bill in the house.
The situation as to the populists seems
to have quoted down entirely again.
The interesting feature of tonight has
been a meeting of Sweets 10. 1t is
given out that they simply talked over
the situation as to the college bill and
took no action.

a contest over the bill to amend the
state mine inspector law. During the
discussion an effort was made to amend
so as to abolish the office Young, pop
ulist, of ShOshone, said that the miners
Of the Occur d'Alene did not want the
office abolished, provided the inspector
could be given the authority proposed
in the Bennett bill. He cited several
instances going to show the necessity
of maintaining the office, naming
among others the last Bunker Hill and
Sullivan accident.
Mine owners too often value tim
bers more highly than they do the lives
of their employees" he said.
The effort to abolish the Office was
defeated by a vote of II to 20, and the
Bennett bill, amending the present law
was recommended for passage.
