THE IDAHO MUDDLE.
One Populist Ticket Filed, Other
Likely to Provoke Trouble.
(SneciaI to The HeraIdl

(Speclal 10 Inc heFdlQ.J
Boise, Ida, Sept 1O.-One of the
Populist tickets has been filed with
Secretary of State Lewis and the
other is under consideration. The
ticket filed is that nominated by the
Blake convention. The filing hour was
Il o'clock noon today. The ticket
named by the Taylor convention was
presented at 2:30 in the afternoon and
Secretary Lewis took the matter under
adviSement-
Just what action the secretary will
take is not known, but it is thought he
will decline to file the Taylor ticket.
If so, a writ of mandate will be ap-
piled for and this will bring the whole
matter up in the supreme court. If
both tickets are filed some other action
will be taken TO bring the matter be-
fore the court at once. 1t is announced
as the intention of the factions to have
the question of regularity passed on
Immediately. They will ask for a
special term before the adjourned ses-
sion on the 18th.
In Nebraska, it has been held that it
is not the province of the courts to
determine which is the regular ticket
in such a case as this. In Washington
the court held there cannot be two
names on the ballot with the same
name Colorado has held both ways
on the question.
Both tickets offered for filing at the
office of the secretary of state bear the
name Peoples Party Ticket" and it
must be determined which is entitled
to the name of official ballot or whether
both shall be printed thereon.

RDEscRIBABLE GRIEF.
Austrian People Overcome By the
Terrible News

Vienna, Sept. 10.--The news Of the as
sassination of the queen reached here
shortly before o'clock. It spread like
lightning. The streets were suddenly filed
with multitudeS of people, many Of them
becoming impossible for vehicles.
Extra editions were issued by all the
papers. Many VienneSe considered the
report incredible until the semi-official
Weiner Abend Post appeared confirming
the statements of the other papers.
All the papers accompanied the an
nouncement with warm tributes to the
empress. They were eagerly snatched
from the hands of the sellers and were
read aloud to groups of citizens
An indescribable grief OVerDOwerS the
people. The performances at the court
theatres and the jubilee exhibition have
been cancelled.
Emperor Francis Joseph received the
news at Schoenbruhn. His majeStyS
journey to attend the maneuvres at lips,
was, of course, abandoned.
All the theatres here and in the prOvin-
cial towns are closed.

row felt at the loss of our noble empress.
whose life was one long chain Of philan-

order to obtain fresh strength, but only
to become the victim of a wicked and mad
attack"
1t concludes with an expression OF sin

whose beloved head such grief has fallen
in the year of his jubilee

will meet with the appreciation of the
vast multitudes who know John How
ellis.
The contest for the legislature was
a long drawn out affair, owing TO the
large number of candidates and the
determination Of their friends TO keep
them in the race, when their chances
Tor winning were past. Two ballots
were taken yesterday. On the first, c.
NJ. Jackson of Salt Lake City and A.
w. Foreman were nominated. On the
second, Mrs. Alice Merrill Horne, John
7. Hansen and r. 3. Shepard were
selected, the nomination of Albert
Spencer, the next highest, being made
unanimous.
The completion of the legislative
ticket brought on the contest for the
commissioners. The timber placed be-
fore the convention was all of an ex-
cellent character, and the convention
could not possibly make mistakes. II
will be noted that the convention got
itself intC d little muddle, but the diff
ficulty was overcome very easily, and
the candidates selected were nominated
amid the greatest enthusiasm
In the nomination for county clerk,
David c. Dunbar received an ovation
A principle was at stake and that prin-
cioie was vindicated when he received
the nomination by acclamation. The

was no evidence to show that anyone
had voted for more than three persons.
The three gentlemen receiving the
highest\ vote should be nominated.
Nels Linn said that the county
wanted representation. and asked if
the Democratic party can afford to
lose in the election.
John w. Burton said it was plain
that the vote was legal and mathe-
matically correct.
Thomas Marshall moved that the
three persons receiving the highest
number of votes should be the candi-
dates.
B. t. Lloyd said that if the three
who received the highest vote be the
nominees, the question arose, 'Is it
just?" The people outside the city
should be represented. He didn't like
to hear delegates exclaim, I'VE will
bolt the ticketr' He asked that JUS
tice be done to the county.
Heber Bennion said that the county
should have a representative, but that
he did not propose to bolt the ticket if
they didn't get it. They did not want
a candidate, however, at the expense of
Armstrong. The right thing to do was
to carry the motion to take a new
vote
Senator Whitaker arose and adj
dressed the convention as follows: "As
the member receiving the highest vote,
l request that the motion to reconsider
be we'll considered. The convention
cannot afford to ignore the county 1t
would make a great mistake. 1t is we'll
known that if the motion to declare
null and void is carried, it is for the
purpose of doing justice to the county
members l favor the motion, though
it may put my chances in jeopardy AS
Democrats we should see that justice
is done. no matter where it falls" Mr..
Whitaker was loudly applauded
Chairman Moyle here gave the infor-
nation that the secretary reported
gates.
Mr. Woolley stated that Whitaker
and Armstrong had expressed his SEN
timents. and that he was willing to
reconsider.
Stewart of Draper, who first filed the
protest, said that we are living in an
age when the will of the people should
govern, and they should not be bound
by any rules when it was the sense
that an injustice was done. 1t surely
is an injustice if the county is not rep
resented. The convention had it in its
power TO make it so the county would
be represented. If, however, it in
sisted on the three candidates from
the city as nominees, he would, as
faithful Democrat, go TO the polls and
vote the straight ticket.
Joseph Nj. Cohen took the floor and
argued that as they were following
Democratic principles, it was right to
submit to the will of the majority. and
favored the nomination of the three
highest candidates He asked of the
gentlemen from the country if two of
their numbers had received the highest
vote, would they not have gone back on
the principle for which they were con-
tending. The county had been given
four of the ten representatives to the
legislature and he didn't see how they
