had to leave, his office frequently and
attend to his duties in front Of the
Speaker. 1t appeared also that the de-
PENDANT necessarily had four or five AS
sistant clerks and that the members and
other persons had access to the office;
that ON that day there was much crowd
and confusion. 1t appeares that the bill
was tabled on the preceding evening,
and so marked on the back of lt-and
one witness testified that said bill and
others, after the stamp tabled" was
on it, were seen in the hands of the de-
PENDANT. IN the same day lady copy
list for the enrolling clerk copied SAID
bill and returned it to her principal.
She testified that the defendant did not
notice the back of the bill. This blll
was soon afterwards found on the
statute book.
We have referred to this much of the
evidence merely to show the situation,
and the strongest aspect of 1t for the
State. One witness testified that one
of the assistant clerks had charge of all
bills after they were stored and
placed in pigeon holes in the clerk OF
the office; that said assistant had the
key to this desk there all the bills were
kent. and that he mad custody of the
bills: and the defendant testified that
he had no knowledge or information
how the enrolling clerk came in posses
sion OF said bill. There were ten or
twelve witnesses examined, and we are
OF the opinion that the defendants mo-
ton in arrest ought to have been
granted.
The duty Of drawing the line between
a, scintilla and evidence fit for the jury
is some times difficult and delicate, but
t is important and the Court must as
sumo the responsibility. 1t 9. prelimi-
nary question for the court who must
find not that there is absolutely no evil
dence, but that the evidence lis such as
would justify the jury in proceeding to
a verdict-such evidence has viii rea-
sonably satisfy an impartial mind.

Governor Steunenberg, of Idaho
didn't make the same mistake in
MS Thanksgiving proclamation that
Gov. Leedy, Of Kansas, made. Our
governor made no prosperity in
any guise, although it is generally
conceded that great strides were
made during the past season in the
development Of the resources of the
state. What Do you think for
one moment that the governor of
this great commonwealth is going
to give political trick away? Gov
Leedy sealed his political doom
when he pointed to the "great pros
perity of Kansas" The average
Populist has no use for any man
who can not yell calamity under
my or all conditions - Lemhi

The Northern Pacific Railroad
Co. has issued neat four-page cir
cular on Washington and Idaho
entitled "Klondike Gold Without
Klondike Cold" Continuing the
circular says:
washington and Idaho farmer
will supply the wheat, vegetables,
fruit, poultry, honey, butter and
eggs for the Alaska market. The
man that feeds the miner gets the
gold. Alaska has gold fields mar
velously rich. ALASKA has enor-
nous bodies OF oil. Alaska's wealth
will attract vast influx of popu-
lation, but Alaska must draw her
food supplies from outside sources.
Washington and Idaho are the
nearest states producing what AL.
aska needs. The Washington crop
for 1897 outranks any state in the
Union. Washington and Idaho
orchards will readily supply Alaska
with fruit. Washington and Idaho
poultry yards will send chickens
and eggs to Alaska. Washington
and Idaho diaries will furnish but
ter for Alaska. Gold miners are
noted for spending money lavishly. |
A very large portion of this will |
find its way into the pockets OF the
farmers of Idaho and Washington. |
Those who want paying invest
ments, homes of their own, a de-
Iightful climate, sure return for
steady toll, a land flowing with
milk and honey, seize this golden
opportunity of obtaining Klondike
,old without going to Klondike, by
aking farm in Washington or
daho."
