the situation in Occur d'Alene country !:
"Wardner, Idaho: Adjutant General,
Washington-The governor of Idaho has
carefully reviewed the situation here,

New Capitol Can be Built.

THE supreme court Wednesday morn

state capitol injunction suit brought by
Acknowledgement Davis. The substance
of the decision is to the effect that the

new State House was constitutionally
passed by the Legislature. The court
found no error in the judgment and the
decree of the court below. After render.
ing the decision the court adjourned for
the summer. Attorney General Davis
holds that the state is not able to build
a new state house, and that is why he
instituted the injunction proceedings.
He contends that the new capitol will
cost 90, 900, 900, instead of 81 900, 900,
and that it will prove the most in
famous steal ever perpetrated against
the people of Arkansas. Gen. Davis il

says he is tired of court made law, -
and that he intends to tell the people the
truth in each of the 75 counties OF Ark

Worse Than JEFF Davis.

BosToN, Mass. July Former
Governor George S. Boutwell, of Groton
wrote letter to the Clan ma Gael AS =
sociation which was to have been read
at the meeting yesterday when George
Fred Williams and Senator Mason of
Illinois, spoke, but which was delayed
in the mails. In it Mr.. Boutwell,
severely criticises what he terms 1.-The
un-American and un-Republican poll
cy" of President Mckinley and adds
There has been no other such de-
parture from American ideas and
principles in all our history, not even
by Jefferson Davis, as is now in pro.
gress under the lead of the President.
Jefferson Davis did not contemplate the
destruction OF the American republic
he only contemplated its division.
President Mckinley is Transforming
this republic into an empire, and the
permanent establishment of our aut
thority in the Philippine Islands is the
consummation of the undertaking.
I'VE are engaged in war which no
one defends. which no one can defend
rs u just and righteous war. Its sup
porters are apologists, laying the re
sponsibility for the war sometimes on
destiny and sometimes on divinity. This
administration has been inveigled into
policy which involves an alliance with
England for the defence of her Eastern
empire against the frowning supremacy
of Russia. that has already laid its iron
hand upon China. and which is yet to
dominate over Japan. We are now to
choose whether America shall remain a
republic and lead the world on to higher
affairs. or whether we are to accept the
ideas and principles Of despotic govern
ments.

Hicks Forecast tor July.

Following is the July forecast of Rev &.
Irl R. Hicks. the Saint Louis storm
prophet;
July will open with fair weather for
the most part over the country. A
mercury perterbation extends from the
second to twelfth. embracing two
periods of storm disturbances-the first
being from second to fifth, and the
second from the eighth to twelfth.
About the third it will grow much
warmer to the westward, the barometer
will fall, and general storm conditions
will pass eastward over the country
from third to fifth. Moon being at
greatest north declination on the fifth
indicates that winds will be southerly,
and that very warm weather will come
to climax about that date. Rising
barometer and cooler will follow storm
areas, causing more pleasant tempera-
lures. with q brief squirt of quite cool
weather Immediately after the new
moon on the seventh.
The Vulcan storm period central on
the ninth and blending with the Mercury
period up to the twelfth, will bring one

Heavy local rains will visit narrow
sections dnring these storms. but empty
clouds and severe bluster will be the
more general rule. About the four

teenth to sixteenth will bring falling
barometer and much warmer weather.
We predict that rains will be light, ex-
cept in rare cases during the remainder
of July.
The next regular storm period will
fall from the 18th to 22d. Moon will
be further south on the 10Th and nearest
to earth at her full ON 22d. This will
be a period of threatening weather with
some rain and heavy bluster The
stormy days. 26th to 2Sth, will begin with
rapid change to much warmer in all
western parts ON the 25th, this being
the date of moons passage over the
equator. Another depressed state OF
barometer will pass over the country
during the Goth, 27th and 2Sth, break
ing into local summer storms over most
parts.
We predict that the destructive and
fatal storms which have been despoiling
the land and killing so many people for
more than a month will cease, in a
great measure for the present season
before the end of July. Summer
storms of course will continue at stated
periods, and some may prove severe
and dangerous, but the fatal frequency
of tornadoes will be checked.

Workingmen and Employers.

From the New Haven Conn. Union.
THERE is lockout in the shoe factory
of Gov. Pingree at Detroit. Mich. The
brother of Gov. Pingree. who is the
manager. said In an interview: 1--WE
have stood great deal from the unions
on account Of Gov Pingree position
! in politics. No, there will be no de-
crease In wages If the men return. 1t
is simply question of who is going to
run this business We have not heard
from the men yet. - Gov. Pingree has
had the reputation of not only being
considerate, but kind and liberal to his
employees. There is no decrease in
wages. but a question Of detail in the
foctory The fact that Gov Pingree is
in public life, and thought to have
political ambition, the employees think
they can do as they please. and failure
to comply the Governor would be
threatened with the votes that organic
ed labor controls and brought to
terms. The men who make these threats
are the worst enemies of either 'organiz-
ed or unorganized labor. and wher-
ever it has been tried, the men being in
the wrong. have secured the worst end
of it, not only for themselves but for the
labor movement in general.
The men who have capital invested in
business. If they expect to succeed
must control the business, and in order
to obtain results are obliged to have
rules for discipline.
The men who are employed have labor
to sell, and that is their capital. If
they can agree with the men who own
the businass on price for their labor
it is mutual, and the rights of neither
are invaded or infringed. If the man
who has labor to sell is dissatisfied he is
not compelled to remain but is at liberty
to go where the employment is more
satisfactory to him. When workman
is engaged and accepts employment that
does not give him the right to share in
running the business or debating as to
the management of the concern. As
long as the workman receives the com
pensation agreed upon, his part of the
agreement is fulfilled. At the end of
each week on pay day, settlement is
had, and If satisfactory. the labor for
another week agreed upon and perform
ed, and that is all there is to it. 1t is
a mutual agreement. either side of the
contract being entitled to terminate it
at will. Much Of the trouble that labor
organizations have encountered is from
INSCRIPTIONS members who have at
tempted to run these organizations for
selfish purposes, and from disturbers,
who supposing they were vested with
some little authority from their trade
organization, attempted to ride rough
shod over the employer, threatening
him with political ostracism or his busi-
ness with the boycott because some un-
reasonable demand of the workman was
not complied with. We speak from
personal knowledge and experience. and
it is dollars to doughnuts that the Pin l.
grees are being subjected to improper
demands, and an attempt made to coerce
them.
