FRIDAY. :: DECEMBER Is. 1894
WOMEN CAN VOTE,
Idaho Supreme Court Unani.
mOusly Decides in That
Manner.

BY unanimous opinion the SUI
preme court have decided that the
equal suffrage amendment was
adopted at the recent election.
The constitution provides that an
amendment shall become part of
the constitution if a majority of
the electors shall vote for it. At
the election the amendment re-
ceived 1926 votes, while 622S
were cast against it. There were,
however, 1856 votes cast for cleo
tors, and it was held by the state
canvasing board that a majority of
that number was necessary to car
ry the amendment. The question
was taken into the supreme court
on q petition for writ of review,
and was argued by some of the
leading attorneys of the state. In
deciding the case tho court says it
is impossible to harmonic the
conflicting authorities on the sub
ject, but that the language of the
section Of the constitution was
considered in connection with the
language of other sections of the
same article, clearly shows it was
intended that a majority voting
on an amendment should be suf-
ticient.
The decision carries two other
amendments with it. One of these
does away with the Office of dis
trict attorney, substituting county
attorneys. The other separates
the offices of probate judge and
county school superintendent.

"The order of such board author
izing or refusing to authorize such
appointment may be reviewed on
appeal by the district court.
"When such appeal is taken
there must be a trial de novo by

The district court is reversed on
a point of procedure. The su-
preme court holds the application
for u deputy must first be acted
on by the commissioners only after
they have taken evidence bearing
ON the application. If the boards
action is unsatisfactory an appeal
may be taken to the district court.
The district court cannot arbitrar-

Elevator for Warrens.

AS briefly noted last week, Colin
Mcintosh, of Tacoma, has purchas-
cd from Bailey Chamberlain, Andy
kavanaugh and f. j. Lucas, 10
acres of placer ground situated i'm
mediately below the big dredge on
the Warrens meadows. Various
attempts have been made to work
these meadows by ground sluicing
and piping through fumes of vari-
Gus length, but never successfully,
owing to the lack of dump and
other drawbacks. The value of
the ground, however, has long
been thoroughly demonstrated,
and Mr. Mcintosh proposes to
solve the problem of its successful
working by putting in next year a
hydraulic elevator plant, similar
to the one installed by the Idaho
Mining Co., on their American
hill claims in Elk City. These
hydraulic elevators have been in
general use in California and else
where for many years in working
deep placer ground, and their in
PRODUCTION to the collaborating
meadow flats of this section will
very materially enlarge the out
put of placer gold from old Idaho
county.

Concerning Deputy County Of
ficialS.

The supreme court of Idaho has
decided the case of Daniel ID.
Campbell, sheriff, We. the Board of
commissioners of Canyon county,
in favor of defendants. The pro-
gress Of the case is interesting. 1t
appears that when Canyon county
was organized, the commissioners
allowed both the sheriff and
county clerk deputy at COM
Portable salary. There was con-
siderable influential opposition
against the employment Of these
deputies at the public expense,
and at the next January term,
1894, the commissioners were con-
WINGED Of the illegality of their
action and refused the application
of the clerk and sheriff for a con-
tinuance of their deputies. In
January, 1895, new Board Of
commissioners went into power,
and Notwithstanding the action of
their predecessors, the new COM
missioners again authorized the
sheriff and clerk to employ dcpu-
ties at the expense of the county
treasury. But again public opin-
ion was aroused to such an extent
that at their next session in April,
1895, the commissioners declined
to continue the deputies. There
upon Sheriff Campbell appealed
from the commissioners to the
district court and was successful.
The judge of the district court
ordered the commissioners to
authorize the appointment of a
deputy for the sheriff and the pay
inent to said deputy, by the
county, of a reasonable compen-
sation, which was claimed to be
500 per month. The commits
sioners appealed from the decis-
ion of the district court and took
it to the supreme court, where the
judgment of the district court was
reversed.
The syllabus says: "The sheriff
cannot appoint deputy unless
empowered by the board of county
commissioners SO to do, and the
said board must when SO request
