BIBLE FOR BLACKSTONE
AN ATTORNEY AnANpoNs THE
BAR FOR THE PULPIT
Board Of Equalization Raises Assess
ments on Gas and Electric Com
panies-Populist Returns

SAN BERNARDINO, July H.-Attorney
Howard H. Baker will now attach new
handle to his name. Rev." as he has
hidden good-by to Blackstone and takes his
idea Of law from the Bible. He is prom.
inent member Of the First M e. church
Of this city. and has been ordained to
preach on probation by Elder e. w. Cas-
well until the next quarterly conference
when he expects to be admitted into full
fellowship in his new calling. He goes to
take charge of the Methodist churches at
Coronado and National City for his first
charge. residing at the latter place. He
leaves Tuesday for his new field.
The gas and electric light companies Of
San Bernardino have combined and sold
out to the Redlands Electric company, and
the board of equalization, taking Its cue
from the price paid for the plants, proposed
to raise the assessment of 1895 on the gas
plant to $15,270, and on the electric plan;
from SO $50 to $4,000. This brought Man
oyer A. w. Burt before the board, and he
made an eloquent appeal against the move,
claiming the plants were not worth what
had been paid for them: that the poles were
rotten and the machinery poor. and that
the assessments should be reduced instead
of raised. To all of this the board listened
with look of sympathy on their
honest, rugged faces, but duty is duty. and
the figures were raised, as private feelings
must give way to public good.
The following teachers have been en-
gagged for district schools: Daggett dis

shown by the following answer, that came

gardine the Seventh cannot be granted
now. Superior authority has decreed
otherwise" That seems to settle It.
The return Of 2. b. Stuart has called
around him the middle of-the-road men to
hear why one who was SO stanch for fusion

pired to be Justice of the peace. Then his
action has cracked, II not broken. other

HAD A LONG TRIP.

Trip to the Fire.

n ana ID HHcknHn Lost n
Trip to the Fire.
Missoula. Jan. 17.--There was consid-
erable anxiety in town late last night
when 1t was thought that the buildings
at Fort Missoula were on fire The
standard to-day contained Il dispatch
telling what the fire was. 1t was a
small item, but it represented a lot of
hard work on the part of the reporter
who dug it up and the series of adven-
lures that the scribe had in getting
the news were worthy of Il longer
story.
1t was a little past II o'clock last
night when the light of the fire at
tracted the attention of Johnnie Jacob
son, the hackman, and he at once noti-
lied the firemen The night was SO
cloudy that the light of the blaze made
big showing and at first IL looked as
II the whole post was on fire. \ tele-
phone call TO the fort failed TO elicit
any response, and the tremen who
went across the river We're unable 10
locate the blaze. except to ascertain
that 1t was outside the city and appar-
entity at the fort, so the reporter and
the hackman started out To find the
fire. There was cold wind coming
down the canyon. laden with fine snow
that made travel uncomfortable but
the light OF the fire shone through the
storm and kept getting brighter Ii
served as a guide for the seekers after
news and the gray team or Jacobson
Snade good time over the road that
leads across the plain To the fort
When within a mile of the post il was
apparent that he fire was not within
the post enclosure but ii was decided
to so on, as long as the expedition had
gone SO far.
Turning into rough ROAD the gray
team pounded along at a good rate and
swung around a fence corner toward
the fire at such pace that the crowd
at the fire thought the hose wagon had
come out. After watching the blaze
fol few minutes, the neWsgatherers
started back. The people al the fire
had told the hackman of a short cut
back To the city that would save IA mile
or SO and the hackman started out to
llnd his way over the new road He
did ii. but it took a heap Of trouble.
1T was dark and the snow on the
ground made trail and prairie look
alike Several times the road was lost.
and once the hack went into big irri-
eating ditch that came near proving
its last resting place. But the road
was finally located and the lights of
town shone out AS guide and the ten
mile drive WAS finished without serious
accident.
Al the fire Colonel Burt MAS present
and a number of the soldiers from the
fort went over To render assistance If
but the fire had gained too
much headway and there was nothing
TO do but to watch ii burn. Mrs Polk
the occupant of the building. was visit
ing neighbor when the fire was dis
covered. She says that she left no fire
in the house. and those VINO first
reached the scene say that one of the
side windows was broken out and there
was distinct odor of coal oil around
the place. There is no clue to the in
cendiary, and Mrs. Polk is at a loss Ia
account for the cause of the affair
She Is not known to have had any on
envy. and there was no insurance on
the building or its contents.

MINERAL LAND CASES.
The Classification Can BE Defended If
Someone Looks After II.

Missoula, Jan. 11.-MineraI Land
Commissioner Rombauer of the Missou-
la district called at the Standard office
to-day in connection with the contest
that Is now being made by the Northern
| Pacific Railway company against the
4 classification of lands in the west end
! OF this county made by the commission
last year. An account of this case APP
! pealed IN the standard Saturday, and i'm
/ the article reference was made to the
4 TACT that in these contest cases the
4 nlted states is not represented unless
I the settlers who are directly interested
! in the land involved take ii upon them
selves Ia defend their rights and the
classification made by the commissions
In most cases the settlers are not men
who can AFFORD To make the fight and
tne Northern Pacific wins by the prac-
teal default of the commissioners side
of the case. Thus it is that the rail-
way company is able to secure such
lands as il desires to hold and To allow
what il does not want To pass back to
the government, when the classification
made by the commissioners places it in
the mineral list.
. Mr.. Rombauer said to-dsy: Il was
much pleased By-the-etatements made
IN the Standard. IT is a fact that these
contest cases are allowed To go by de-
fault and the law seems Ia be operat-
ing to the disadvantage of the railway
company instead of To the benefit of
the state and the settler as was the in
tent Of the law which created the COM
mission. | have been looking into the
matter lately and / find that there is a
provision In the law for the representa-
ton of the commissioners and the set
tiers. There is Il paragraph i'm the act |
or congress which created the commits
sion which says that at these contests /
the United States shall he rep |
resented and defended by the I
United States district attorney or I
his assistants for the judicial district in /
winch the land is situated, unless the I
secretary Of the interior shall detail |
some proper officer of the department of |
the interior for that purpose. In one
contest that has been made in this dis
trlct, the government was represented T
by Special Attorney Scales of the inter-
ior department. but all Of the others
have gone by default It seems to me
that there ought to be more interest
taken in this matter so much depends
upon II. Even if there is no provision
Tor securing witnesses for the govern
ment side of the case, the attorney
could question the commissioners and
the witnesses for the
side of the case 1t seems
with perfect propriety. appear To de-
fcnd their side of the case | am not

Eckenbeck is wanted for a little

they have been at work and have been

them with the representation that he

he would carry them to that city for a

and they said that they would pay If
they could be assured that his story

The services of a hobo that he picked
up near the depot and referred the

hobo vouchsafed for the truth of Ecken-
