treacherous snowslide has claimed an
other victim on the road between
Rocky Bar and Atlanta, in the person
of Hon. George E. Butler, county COM

left Rocky Bar on snow shoes, but has
never since been seen. The trail of
his snow shoes has been followed to
the edge of the great avalanche, and
there all trace of the missing man was
lost. 1t is supposed he was overtaken
by the slide and swept down to death
in its awful embrace.
William Tate, the mail carrier, made

IDAHO LEGISLATURE.
Don't Want Hawaii, For It Is Owned
by Shylocks.
Especial to The Herald.)


Boise, Feb. 11.-At the opening of the
senate this morning on the memorial
in favor of the annexation of Hawaii
the report was signed by four members
of the state affairs committee, Rich,
Rees. Davis of Ada and Ballantine of
Blaine. 1t is somewhat unique among
state papers, being as follows:
Mr.. President, your committee on
state affairs, having under considera-
ton Senate Joint Memorial No. 4, in
relation to the annexation of the Ha-
waiian islands. would respectfully rec
ommend that the same be indefinitely
postponed for the following reasons:
That said islands are now virtually
owned by a syndicate Aof American
'shylocks, who. in the event of annexa-
ton, would saddle upon our now over
burdened people additional taxes, and
the Lord only knows how many ras-
cally schemes for binding the govern
ment: and for the further reason that
your committee believe if our govern
ment would do a little more business
at home and take care of our own peo-
pie and furnish them employment in
stead of gobbling up these insignificant
half-breeds, one-horse parodies on
government, they would be acting more
in harmony with the spirit of our con-
stitution and the wishes and best inter-
What we need now is the free coin
age of silver. tariff for revenue only
and employment for American tramps,
a proper settlement of the capital and
labor questions and a little less pop
pycockism in American politics.
The report took the breath away
from the friends of annexation and il
was adopted without dissent.
A surprise was sprung when the bill
20 al fo,
final passage. 1t had gone through the
committee of the whole by a vote of
u to 8, but there had been a change
of sentiment, which was manifested
when a motion was mace TO recommit
to committee OF the whole. 1t was
taken up later in committee of the
whole and a rather caustic debate was
carried on. FINALLY it was recon-
mended for indefinite postponement.
The report OF the committee was
adopted by vote of II TO 8. the vote
was as follows:
Ayes-Ballantine CAda). Coryen,
Davis, (Oneida), Harris. Nelson, Rees,
Turner, (Bingham), Turner, Qdaho),

AT the afternoon session OF the SEN
ate the house bill for the government
of the Soldiers Home was pushed
ahead and passed through the COM
mittee of the whole. The bill does
away with the present board and vests
the management in one composed of
the governor, secretary of state and
general. The Home shall be

tendent. at a salary of $500 year. In
