REPUBLICANS IN IDAHO COUNTY
Inc ureatest Enthusiasm and Activity is
Manifested All Over the Couaty i. A.
A'Ishie Urged as a Delegate to the Phil
deIphia Convention.

GRANcEvILLE, Idaho, May 2.-[Spe-
cal to The Teller1-unless all signs fail
Old Idaho county will roll up big MAORI
ties in the coming election.
The greatest enthusiasm and activity is
being manifested all over the county.
Your correspondent has Just returned
from an exhaustive trip over the major
portion of the county and he found the
feeling very strong in the republican
favor.
The recent meeting and convention of
the delegates to the republican conven.
ton to be held at Lewiston on Nav s was
success i'll every sense of the word and
after some detail business had transacted
a motion was made and carried unani-
mously that at the coming convention
the delegation from this section should
insist upon the election of Hon. ! F. ALL
SHE of this city as a delegate to the ma
tional republican national convention TO
be held at Philadelphia, June 10.
There is no question but that this will
prove satisfactory to the other delega-
tons, as Mr.. Ailshie is generally recog-
niZed as man of wonderful ability and
would represent all of our people most
acccptably.
A gentleman closely allied, by both
business and social ties to Mr. Ailshie,
said, when Intercepted on the subject:
81 have every confidence that with our
delegation solid for Mr. Ailshie as they
unquestionably will be, he will be elected
and that he will attend the convention i'll
person, and it is without the peradven-
ture of doubt splendid thing that we
will be represented by man like him
for you know that it is all expensive TRIP
and many of our people can not afford
the time, to say nothing of the expense
necessary, to make trip to the far east
but I am confident and you may safely
state that Mr.. Ailshie will most assuredly
go if he is elected"
Republican clubs are being organized
all over the county and Mt Idaho anC
Grangevile have good clubs already anC
campaign literature is already conmenc
ing to make its appearance.

day reducing the rail rates on sugar ship
ments from California east. The com.
plant was filed by J. II. Gustin on behalf
OF the merchants of Kearney, Nebraska
against the Burlington, the Union Pa
chic, the Rio Grande, and the Southern
Pacific railroads. The opinion is volum-
nous. The bill of complaint, in SO far
as 1t affects the Burlington road, is dis
missed, but the Union Pacific does not
fare so we'll. The commission considers
the rate of Fifty cents per ton on sugar
IRON the coast to Omaha and goes into
the matter of competition for business
between these two points, showing that
the rate is affected by the rate via ocean
vessels between New York and San Fran
| cisco.
The conclusion is that by reason of this
competition the Union Pacific is entitled
to haul sugar cheaper to Omaha than to
kearney, where no such competition ex-
lists, but that it is not entitled to charge
49 cents in addition; therefore the rate is
reduced to more reasonable figure, which
the commission fixed at not to exceed rs
cents, making the maximum rate charged
to kearney 90 cents against so cents to
| Omaha.

Gov. Taylor Files Appeal.

WASHINGTON, April 3o.-Counsel for
II II. William S. Taylor and John Mar
shall, in the contest in the supreme court
over the offices of governor and lleuten-
ant governor of Kentucky, have filed
their briefs. After reviewing the various
points involved the brief concludes as
follows:
"We will not attempt any resume OF the
argument; we have attempted TO so divide
it as not to confuse it. We simply insist
that the pretended adjudication which is
pleaded by Mr. Beckham as the founda-
ton of his action whereby he seeks to
take from William s. Taylor and John r.
Marshall the Offices TO which they GER
tainly had the admitted priina facie right
and whereby he seeks to make himself
the governor of Kentucky and the Chief
magistrate of her people, is an absolute
mu,uuery: that it was entered or made
in violation of rights secured both to
William S. Taylor and John X, Marshall
and to the people of Kentucky by the
constitution of the United States, ana
that when he comes into court asking ior
the judicial enforcement OF this arbitrary
edict the courts of the land, OF which
this is the supreme head, should decline
TO enforce it. We feel that Ill this case
is involved the question whether we are
political freemeu or political seils
whether we have in Kentucky repubh'
or an oligarchy; whether we vote by righ'
secured by the law or by grace OF lew
men 1t matters not that these men may
themselves have been elected. They wer'

WATER FLOODS ALAKEA STREET.

For while this morning the Eva
side of Alakea street was the bed of
a swift running stream. The water
came from the foundation of the Alex
ander Young building from where it
was being pumped. During the recent
storm a large quantity of water ac-
cumulated in the foundation and seri-
ously Handicapped the men when they
came to work. So serious was this
interference that Vincent and Belser
the contractors brought one of their
pumps to the place and for several
days past have been throwing the wa
ter out. The water was kept within
the bound of the gutter on Alakea
street between King and Merchant but
from Merchant to Queen the water
overlooked into the street and made it
very muddy. The work was stopped
this afternoon.

TIE CHINESE REGGAR

The Chinese government has gone the
rounds as a beggar for help, and though
everybody has been fairly polite to it,
it has received substantially the same
reply from all to whom it has APP
pealed. Japan Is in line with the rest
of the Powers, and has told the Chinese
government that if it will at once sup
press the instruction and rescue the
foreign representatives Japan will be
prepared to use her influence in favor
of China when settling day comes.
China has played the diplomatic
game to the limit, and played 1t skill
fully, but the time for action is at hand.
She will have to move promptly in the
right direction if she would keep the
allied troops out Of Pekin, or If she
wants to escape more trouble after
they have entered Pelxin. They are
near the sacred city now, and it is
thought possible that they may be
knocking at its gates to-day. The sa-
cred city and what the Chinese call
their face may be badly damaged if
the troops enter 1t before peace Is made.

from the fortress the engines uncouple
and the trolleys are handed over to men
or horses. The track continues, laid in
the parallels and approaches, and is ap-
plicable for the service OF ammunition
to the siege battery magazines, for the
transport of engineering material and
for the removal of sick and wounded to
the rear. Big guns can also be easily
moved from one position to another
along this tramWay by aid of the spec
ial trolley. When horses are employed
to haul the rolling stock they are in
lasso draft, the tugs being attached to
the side of the platforms, so that an an
imal would not have to walk over the
sleepers, disturbing the adjustment of
this very light line
The siege railway can be laid
throughout its length with great speed
and almost without noise. In the
trenches at least, it is not even neces-
sary to ballast the track provided the
soil is of average hardness; 1t will be
sufficient to cut a good drainage trench
along the reverse of the parallel. In
the trenches well-trained men, of whom
we have no lack, thanks to the splendid
aid forthcoming from the CreWe rail-
way reservists, can lay from one hun
dred to one hundred and fifty yards of
track per hour.
The gauge of eighteen inches may
seem absurdly narrow, but it is selected
for the reason that it allows of very
sharp curves. as small as twenty-foot
radius being practicable.-Pa Mall Ga

KNAPSACKS OF MANY NATIONS


English Soldiers the Lightest Because
They Rely More Upon Transports
When the Germans heard of the re-
cent enormous casualty list on the ia
tai Adershot field day, about which Of
/ fetal inquiry has been held, there was
much self -complacent head-wagglng
and many unkind things were said re-
garding the stamina and marching ca
pacity of Thomas Atkins,
| AS a matter OF fact, any body Of
| troops under identical conditions would
have had an equal casualty list, but
the Germans do not realize these con-
ditions, because in their maneuvres
they and indeed all the crack contin-
entail armies, without doubt, "do these
things better" But the Germans can
march and so can the Frenchmen and
Russians, and, moreover. the two form
err in marching order" carry a bigger
load on their backs than the British
soldier. Marching with them is an i'm
portant accomplishment, end one not
to be taken for granted
The German recruit after he has had
his parade drill ground thoroughly into
him is taken out to stretch his legs.
First, he marches in uniform only, then
he Is given a rifle to carry, next his
knapsack, and so on until his marching
order is at full weight.
During all this the distances are be-
ing gradually heightened, and finally
the pace is increased. When trained he
is going his twenty miles regularly
twice a week, and he may be called
upon to do thirty-mile march occa-
sionaly, and fit as he is, he accom-
plishes it con his head
That Tommy Atkins can march, too,
nobody will deny, but when comparing
his comparatively spasmodic pedestrian
efforts with those of the foreigner gen.
eral conditions must be taken into
account and here he does not, as
rule, compare too favorably except af-
ter a fortnight or less in the field.
Then, again, though some Of our au-
thorities differ on the point, he must
have q breakfast to march upon and a
small amount of food every five hours
or so, and an occasional mouthful of
water to wash the dust out of his
throat
They get all these things on the con-
tinental maneuvres as a matter of
course In ours it Is not always so-in
fact, an officer writing from the front
has said that so far as hardshps and
lack of food are concerned, the Trans
vaal is a paradise compared to Sails
bury Plain as it formerly was.
The continental soldier carries a
heavier kit on his back than the Brit
ish soldier because he relies less upon
his transport, and no matter where the
baggage train is he can always pitch
his tent at night and roll himself up in
his blanket.
When in heavy marching order Tom
my Atkins carries a coat and cane
