ROUNDING Up IDAHO SHEEP.
HUNDRED THOUSAND OR MORE
NOT ASSESSED.
Officers Hunting Them .Up-cattle
Men Want Sheep Assessments
Raised to So Per Head.
fSpecial to The Harald.l

Boise, Ida, Aug 16-The board OK
equalization met again, today, and de-
voted some time, to hearing the argu-
ments of persons interested. Secretary
Lewis had returned from Haley, where
he went to straighten out the impor-
tant sheep business there, and Auditor
Anderson was back from Bannock and
Treasurer Storer from Bingham, both
having been on similar missions. It
was found that the report from Custer
county was still missing. The board
thereupon dispatched Sheriff Oliver to
get it.
Secretary of State Lewis reported he
had made an arrangement with the
assessor and auditor Of Blaine which
he thought would be satisfactory. Some
of the sheep from Lincoln county had
already been returned in an arranged
report. It was agreed that they should
add 10000 for six months.
AS a result of the trip of Auditor
Anderson to Bannock county, Deputy
Auditor Turner of that county came to
Boise and appeared before the board.
He stated that the sheep had been re-
ported as the assessor had returned
them, and he could not make any
change in the total.
AS result of the reports the sheep
matter was left in a complicated con-
dition, but it is expected that il will
be Strengthened out satisfactorily

KEENE N WASHINGTON,
Heartily Welcomed at the Catholic
University


Washington. Aug t. = Archbishop
Keene, who is here from Rome, paid d
visit today to the Catholic university
with which he was so long identified as
rector He was most cordially welcomed
by the faculty and those students remain
ing through the recess. The archbishop
says that his visit 70 America IS in
pursuance Of a purpose expressed before
going TO Rome. to come to this country
each year and he expresses regret at
recent rerOrtS to the effect LnaG his
coming would inaugurate a controversy
between church factions He said today:
There are no factions in the Roman
church and l am erieved and hurt by
the publication of sensational articles
which are without foundation in any
way and which are not only unkind but
are almost indecent. It is very un-
fortunate that gentleman cannot pay a
visit to the country he loves SO dearly
without being made the subject OF a
quantity of gossip that is simply pesti-
ferrous. I came as l had always pro-
posed, to see my friends and TO attend
the meeting at the Catholic university.
/ cannot help expressing my Indignation
at the unwarranted manner in which so
many of the newspapers have seen fit to
place different purpose upon it.
The archbishop expressed much salts
faction with his duties in Rome. The
statements that he had been candidate
for the archbishopric of New Orleans,
made vacant by the death of Archbishop
Jannsens are explicitly denied
On the other hand, the archbishop has
requested that his name be omitted from
the list nominated by the bishops of
New Orleans archbishopric and sent to
Rome. Disregarding this request. the
bihops have signified their high regard
for Archbishop Keene by placing his
name at the head of the list of three
names from which Rome will make the
final selections. The friends of the arch
bishop. are sincerely hopeful that the
final choice will not fall upon him as
they desire that he shall continue in his
important post ut Rome at least until
more northeriy bi5nopric shall be open.
