Legislature Proceedings.

The fifth session of the Idaho
Legislature convened in Boise on
Monday, Jan. End. A fruitless
effort was made to organize both
houses by a combination of the
democrats, populists and silver
republicans.
The populists have two mem
bers of the senate who hold The
balance of power in that body. An
offer was made to the populists by
the democrats and silver republi
cans to give them one-third Of the
patronage of both houses of the
legislature and an equitable repre-
sentation on all committees.
The populists rejected this pro
posal and offered to assist in effect
ing an organization if the demo
Gratis and silver republicans would
submit to the voters of the state at
the next general election the
adoption or rejection of the initia-
tive and referendum, the cardina
principle of their party.

FILL THE TRACK.
Northern Pacific Will Take Precautions
Against Delay From High Water
Next Spring.

The Northern Pacific officials will
take precautions against Il repetition
Of the trouble from high water on the
bottoms west of the bridge. There is
a mile or two of low land there which
is flooded each spring when there is
unusually high water and the trains
are delayed for several days, and the
track comes in for repair afterwards.
The road, to provide against this. will
fill in the low track along the line to
the extent Of five or six feet, and will
thus he enabled to run trains, not
withstanding the flooding Of the bot
toms. A work train is busy at the
bridge, with a steam shovel and pillow,
and is conveying earth from this side
of the river to fill in with. The work
will take some time, but will prove of
great advantage to the road in render
ing their traffic secure against the
high water.
