IDAHO RULED BY A WOMAN

Issues Requisition Papers That the
Governor Had Decided to Refuse,
But His Excellency Will Defend
Her Acts.
special to The HeraldD

Boise, Ida, Oct. 22-For ten days
a woman was governor of Idaho, not
as the result of any election, but gov
ernor nevertheless. empowered with ex-
ecutive authority and exercising it.
This woman is Margaret Reeve, private
secretary to Secretary of State Leads.
Business of the greatest Importance
in connection with the states vast do
main Of white pine timber called Gov
ernor Steunenberg. the secretary of
state and Treasurer Storer from the
city, while in the meantime the state
auditor and the state superintendent of
public instruction were absent from the
capital r.ost of the time Lieutenant
governor Moore was in the northern
part of the state. but he was not mott
fed.
When the official party left the city
the governor and secretary of state
signed in blank a number of documents
and left them with Miss Reeve. These
included reQuisition papers. Miss Reeve
did not fully understand the full i'm
port of the responsibility and honor
thrust upon her until after the party
left, and when it dawned upon her she
shrank from it and wanted to close up
the state house and go home.
But there was plenty OF business to
be transacted, and Idaho's woman
governor soon reconciIed herself to her
duties and took hold like a veteran
executive. Among other things she is
sued a requisition for the eXradition
to Montana of DR.. Zeno. the notorious
healer. arrested in Pocatello on a war
rant sworn out at Butte.
When the governor returned he found
the rcqutsition of the Montana governor
ON his desk and had made up his mind
not to honor it under the peculiar cir
cumstances, when he was informed of
Miss Reeves action. The legality of
this and previous acts of Miss Reeve
in her executive capacity will doubtless
be attacked in the courts, but Governor
Steunenberg and his official household
are proud of her and propose to defend
her actions to the last ditch.
Miss Reeve received the highest
encomiums from the party upon their
return and yesterday she left for Hills
boro, Ore, her old home, on a we'll
earned vacation at full pay.

The George movement in Greater

from western Democrats The an
nOuncement that the mayor of Chicago,
who was elected by the Bryan workers

come to New York. has aroused the
bitter resentment of the local George
men. ". J. Strong of Chicago, a prom
inent lawyer and president of the al

working in Henry Georges interests.
He was so excited over the report that
Mayor Harrison was going to Tam

to wager $1,000 that the Bryan forces in
Illinois would be split in twain unless
Harrison reconsidered his intention.

New York, Oct. 22.-Aeeording to-
Colonel Asa Bird Gardiner. Tammany
Hail. whose nominee for district at
torney Colonel Gardiner is sees but
one foe in the field, and that foe is
the Citizens union, personified by
Seth Low, the Citizens union candi-
date for Mayor Of Greater New York.
The contention of Colonel Gardiner,
which is also the contention of the
Regulars of the Republican party,
is that no man who has not q RESPONSE
BILE party behind him should be trusted
with the administration of a city's af-
fairs.
"Our fight" says Colonel Gardiner,
"is with Low. Low represents the
Strong administration" Then he pro
eeeded to charge the present city gov
eminent, which was the outcome of
non-parti5an movement with adding
TEN MILLION DOLLARS
annually to the expenses of the city.
On the other hand the sponsors OF
the existing city government challenge
proof that there has been a dollar
spent dishonesty; that never were the
streets so we'll cleaned as within the
last three years and claim there has
morale of the police force and all this
in spite of shaclQles that bind the
hands of New York, on which gives
have been placed and kept locked by
the powers at Albany.
Thus the contest may be regarded
as in some measure a struggle between
partisans and non-partisans, the lat
ter being represented BY the Citizens
union and the former by the Demo-
cratic and Republican party organiZa-
tons, although the forces of the Demo-
crazy are divided between Van Wyck
and George.
If the last one of the sci 900 regis
tered voters of Greater New York is
not out at the polls on Nov. II Will
not be for lack of eXhOrtatiOn and that
of all shades and degrees of elOquence-
II is doubtful if there was ever a local
canvass in which men of more note
took active part than are participating
in the pending campaign

AN INSANE JUMP.
Portland Man Takes a Fatal Plunge
From Tail Building.

Portland, Oct. 22.-John w. Backus
committed suicide this afternoon by
jumping from the sixth story of the
Worcester building to the stone pave

in his body was broken and he lived
only few minutes after the fatal
plunge.
Backus has had financial troubles of
late and this, il is thought, deranged
his mind.
