m;ttee so as to increase the rep
reservations in the conventions by
the addition Of three delegates
from each county. Mr.. Winters
moved to amend Mr.. Wheeler's
amendment SO as 10 increase the
conventions by giving one adj
ditional delegate to Custer coun-
ty. MIR. Winters amendment to
the amendment was put, and de"
clared carried. There was some
discussion and misunderstanding
as to the status of the matter, when
by unanimous consent the preSid-
ing officer reopened the question
and stated that if the Winters
amendment TO the amendment
should prevail, the effect would
be to modify MIR. Wheeler's
amendment, 80 as to bring the
question before the committee in
this form: Shall the report Of the
Subcommittee on superintendent
be amended to as to give Custer
county enc additional delegate!
This appeared to be understood
by all the committee when the
vote was taken and the Winters
proposition carried. Then the
question was put, Shall the sub
committee report be amended so
as to give Custer county two del
ega$es? This was decided insthe
affirmative, and then a motion to
adopt the subcommittee report,
as amended, prevailed. That is
the history of the transaction, and
let il, in justice, be said that at no
time was Mr.. Wheeler ruled out
of order. There was not in the
course Of the meeting any attempt
to apply strict parliamentary rules.
Everything was done in the most
informal way consistent with Sc
curing definite results; and the
whole spirit Of the meeting was
for fairness and Cancellation, the
object being TO in all cases do the
thing that was right. We cal
attention to the fact that there
was not a committeeman or proxy
present asking for any change OF
representation in behalf of his own
county. Mr.. Gooding, of Lincoln
county, who was most eloquent
in his appeals for Custer and
Blaine counties repeatedly assert
ed that his own county had been
fairly dealt with. Mr.. Butler Of
Blaine explained that he had ap-
peared before the subcommittee
and secured double the represen-
tation that Blaine would have been
entitled to under the former ap.
portionment, and that he did moi
think the people Of his county
would feel aggrieved. They had
been generously treated. Il
seems to US there ought not to be
any serious criticism directed
against the action Of a committee
which gave to every member o!
it everything he was entitled to

THE INVESTIGATION.

pears That the StatG OF luan0 ID
getting rather the worse Of the
investigation relative 70 the
Cnur d Alene outrages, which is
in progress at Washington, d. G.
1t is probable however, that a
somewhat different view Of the
affair win appear when the State
presents his case. Nevertheless,
there are some features of the
States case for which it will be
difficult TO find justification. It
appears that nearly all of the men
who were thrown into the "bull
pen'' were unprecedented and i'm
prisoned fer months without the
formality of a criminal charge be-
ing preferred. This was done on
the assumption that martial law
being IN operation civil processes
were suspended. Yet the civil
courtR were actually in operation
and proceeding to the conviction
Of certain offenders II is rather
anomalous that for the purposes
of conviction, where the evidence
seemed satisfactory, the civil au-
thorities were operative, but for
other purposes were imperative.
Then there 10 the permit business.
That will be a hard one to ex-
plain. The scope of the system
is so generous. 1t is not confined
in its application to men charged
with crime, nor to men suspected
of crime, or suspected even of la
tent criminal instincts, but to al
men whatsoever. The State of
Idaho is going to- experience
some difficulty in justifying him
self for the invention and execu-
ton Of q plan which robs a wSrk-
ingman of the right to seek EN- 50
ployment in any portion Of the
United States. The only justifi-
cation that can, or will, be at
tempted is the deplorable csndi-
ton Of affairs in the Occur d.
Alenes. Nobody, at all acquaint-
ed with the situation, denies that
a bad condition existed, and that
there was occasion for a most
rigorous application of law. That
is not the question however. The
question is whether or not the
sworn officers of the law have
not themselves stepped outside OF
the law, and committed ohenses
which, though less acute, are in
their very nature far more dan
gerous to the commoMweal than
the crime they sought to sup
press. Admit that a lawless or
ganizatioa existed, admit that the
insurrection was of such a char
acter as to warrant a call for fed
eral troops and the subordinatiOn
Of the civil to the martial law, the
question still remains, was that
justification for the arrest and
imprisonment Of hundreds OF men
aud their detention for months
without any process Of law. Is
there anywhere in the jurispru-
dence. of this country justifica-
ton for throwing hundreds of
men .intS jail, holding them at
pleasure, and then, without any
sort Of trial, kicking them out and
virtually banishing them? To
say that conditions warranted
such Extraordinary measures, is
simply TO repeat the plea that ty-
rants have been making down
through all the ages. Necessity

schools, and carrying terror to the
hearts of those Hawaiians whose eyes
behold the fearful sight.
When the news spread yesterday OF
the appearance OF the red fish, many
were the conjectures as to whom the
prophecy of death applied.
Meanwhile the excited little group OF
laborers who had been warned of the
presence of the red fish by their Wild
eyed countryman, followed him to
where he said the red fish were. Arriv-
ing at the edge Of a certain dock, the
trembling guide paused and pointed at
the solitary body OF a small red, dead
thing.
Silence rested on the little crowd;
nothing was said for several moments;
their excitement abated, their hearts
resumed their natural beat, the silence
began to get oppressive, when-all or a
sudden-a burly Hawaiian walked up
to the wild-eyed guide and fetched him
a rousing slap between his shoulders.

And SUCH was indeed the case. Some

up onto the dock. He was as green as
lobster could want to be when he left

little pool on the wharf, he had been

MEMORIAL DAY.

Memorial Day so bright and fair,
The Lord He freely gave,
And many a bright and fragrant flower
Was laid on many a grave
By willing hands, for love
For some dear friend above.
In this little city,
On this Island far away,
The dead was not forgotten
On Decoration Day;
And many bud, and leaf, and flower,
Was plucked from many leafy
bower.
And placed on graves.
Both new and old.
Of these who've gone
To the upper fold
And now look with smiling eyes,
Down from their homes in the skies.
Now as the years roll along
May we on each Memorial Day
Place fresh buds and flowers
On the graves of those who've passed
away
Flowers of white and flowers of red
On the graves of the honored dead.

A Former Butte Boy Shoots a
Variety Actress.
FANNIE HALL THE VICTIM
Dick Carberry, Well Known Here Did
the ShOoting-Happened in
San Francisco.

The Associated Press dispatches of last
night announce the ringing down Of the
curtain on one of the last acts of a little
drama of life which began in Butte sew
eral years ago. when young Dick Car
berry. a Butte boy became infatuated
with Fannie Hall, a variety actress. Last
night, in a Francisco, Carberry shot
his mistress three times, and her wounds
will probably prove fatal. A late dis
patch Carberry's arrest and
states that he admits the shooting and
says, 1T was a fool trick"
Many residents of Butte will remember
Carberry. He was a handsome young
man, companionable, not addicted to ex-
cesses in any way, well bred and we'll
educated. His home was in Denver,
where his mother. and several sisters
and brothers reside. His people are said
to be very respectable. The boy met
Fannie Hall in Denver and his ~infatua-
ton for her was such that his friends
could do nothing with him. He followed
her to Butte, and from here the couple
went to the coast and later to.Alaska.
The woman in the case Ii also fairly

wife of Australian Jim Hall, the pugilist.
whom h left for young CaIberry. She
As SAID 10 De prepOSSSSSlIlk, out ike most
of her class. is inclined to distribute her
affections without discrimination. While
she was here, however, she seemed to be
devoted to Carkerry.
The Associated Press account OF the
shooting is as follows:
Miss Fanny Hall q variety actress, was
shot three times and probably fatally
wounded tonight by Dick Carberry or
Carboy, who is still at large. He is said
to have become acquainted with Miss
Hall in Denver from whence he accom-
panied her to the Klondike and back. Miss
Hall is a native of st. Louis, about %
years of age.
Carberry was arrested late tonight.
He admitted that he had done the shoot
ing. and said sit was a fool trick
