FuSiOniSts Take Harmonious
Action in Idaho.
STATE OFFICERS AGREE
BOISE MAY HAVE NEW EVE
MING PAPER.
Especial to The Herald.)

Boise, Ida, Dec. 12-The Democratic
state executive committee today agreed
to an equal division of all state patron
age with the silver Republicans and
POpulists. In this the new state officers
acquiesced.
No action was taken on the senator
ship question, but the harmonious divi-
sion, which was urged by Dubois men,
is considered further evidence of the
solid lineup of the fusion forces for
Mr.. Dubois.
The committee also urged the accept
ance of a plan to start a daily evening
paper here. Oregon men made the prop
OsitiOn, offering to form joint stock
company and put up SIS, 900 of the S25,-
600 required The committee recon-
mended that the plant be given all the
state printing.
The committee did not attempt to de-
eide what places each party should
have or who should fill them It is un-
derstoOd, however, the Democrats viii
have the warden, putting c. H. Harvey
of Haley in the place, and the judge of
the Fourth district court, to succeed
Judge StOckslager, with State Chair
man Perky in the place, among other
positions.
The Populists asked for an equal di-
vision.
The committee recommended a eau
Gus of all fusion members OF the legis-
lature on purely legislative matters.

fuence of him who laid its corner
stone"
With sweeping strokes. Senator Hoar
then proceeded TO paint the great
achievements Of the country, the glO-
ries which had crowned it, the ordeals
through which it had passed, the
growth of literature, art and science
which had advanced with the years,
and concluded as follows:
The men who wrought this great
work are gOne-mOst of them. few
Of their companions and coadjutors
survive to behold the dawn of the new
century, and give their counsel to the
people who are to carry on its work,
as a few of the companions of Wash
ngtOn beheld the beginning of this ana
inaugurated its great accomplishment
on the principles of the revolution.
Their work also is about done. They
seem to survive for a brief period only,
that the new century may clasp hands
with the old, and that they may bring
to the future the benediction of the
past"
The exercises were concluded at 6:15.
After dissolving the joint session Sen
atOr Frye turned the gavel over to
Speaker Henderson and the house i'm
media tely adjourned.

Speech Of Senator Hoar.

The closing address by Senator Hoar,
entitled Historical Address" was in
the best vein Of the Massachusetts,
statesman. In opening. he spoke i'm
pressively Of the antiquity of the Eu-
rOpean capitals compared with the
youth Of that Of the American republic
London, he said, had been a center Of
civilization for more than 1000 years;
Paris the seat Of government for thir-
teen centuries; Berlin for nearly four
and Vienna for seven
And yet said he, there are few
places that can show for any one cen
fury more than three products Of arch
ttecture that equal the capitol, the
Washington monument and the con-
gressiOnal library. If we can add to
the glory Of Washington three such
structures only for each coming cen
fury, we need not be ashamed of com
parisOn with any foreign city when
Washington shall have reached the
same age. If God spare the republic
what may we hope for Washington ?
These three structures, unrivaled as
ley are, each for its respective class.

CARNEGIE OPPOSES
HAYS PET TREATY

New York. Dec. 1.-THE Tribune will
publish a letter from Andrew Carnegie
favoring an isthmian canal, but oppos-
ing any treaty with England on the
subject. Says Mr.. Carnegie:
Much has been said about the Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty, as if treaties were
eternal. It is the common practice to
denounce treaties when conditions
change. Mr.. Blaine held the only true
position. While he was with me in
London, there was a dinner with some
of the leading statesmen of Britain
present, among them Mr.. Chamberlain
The conversation turned upon Mr..
Blaine's disagreements with England
on the Clayton-Bu- yer treaty
I shall try to give you the gist of
the conversation,
:. Mr. Blaine. you have not been
friendly to England
II don't see why you should say so;
1 have been always friendly with Eng
land.
q You did not show it in the CORE
spondence about the Clayton-BulWer
treaty
wei. when read the correspond
ence passing between the two cOun-
tries l found her majesty was always
telling the president what she expect
ed. and the president was telling her
what he ventured to hope. When L
replied I told her majesty what the
president expected
An. you admit then that you
changed the character of the CORE
spondence.
&. Not more than conditions had
changed Mr.. Blaine replied. When
the CIayton-Bulyer treaty was negoti-
ated We were a small, weak country,
and expected to borrow the money TO
build the canal from you; now we do
not ask for your money, and we have
grown greater in population than
Great Britain. Gentlemen, the repub-
lie is past the stage of venturing TO
hope when any other nation tells us
what it expects. But if her majesty
ever ventures to hope, we shall fail to
as courteous and venture to hope in
return.
1T is unsafe for the United States
to allow the slightest participation, or
the shadow OF foundation for a claim
to participation in anything pertaining
to this continent, far better no canal
than one under the Hay -Pauncefote
treaty. But there will be a canal.
Britain needs only 20 see that we are in
/ earnest and resolved that it shall be
/ American and nothing else"

were much improved today on all lines
OF the system, and that he had received
applications from members of the
Order TO be reinstated. He added that
he did not consider these applications,
nor would he reinstate the men as
they had violated their contracts and
the company had dismissed them from
the service.

Equivalent to a Pass.



Colonel Thomas Lowry Of Minneapo-
lis is a heavy stakeholder in and presi-
dent of the Twin City Rapid Transit
company, which operates the various
street railways in the cities Of Mime
apolis and St. Paul, and thereby hangs
d tale. Colonel Lowry was a delegate
to the national Republican convention
at Philadelphia. After the convention
was over a number of the northwestern
delegates, including the colonel, were
seated about a table in the Walton,
One of the party upbraided Colonel
Lowry for his seIfshness. why, I've
done a lot Of things for you, Tom, and
what did you ever do for me in retuTn?'
he demanded. You never even gave me
q pass over your street railway The
colonel reflected a moment, and then
said: I'll tell you what I'll do. II
you'll buy the drinks for the party I'll
give you a pass over the Twin City.
The other eagerly closed with the offer,
and the drinks were ordered, the check
coming to 1926. When they had been
consumed the payer demanded the
pass. well, 1 don't happen to have one
with me-" lazily said the colonel, but,
pushing a nickel across the table TO the
other, that viii get you pass any
where you want to- go on my line" The
answer the other made is not on rec

REGULATES THE o. R. t.
Santa Fe Says All Courtesies Are
Revoked.


Topeka Kan. Dec. 12.-The Santa
Fe railway has repudiated its rela-
tions with the Order Of Railway Tele-
graphers. All the courtesies prevalent
between the road and the operators
have been revoked.
we viii have nothing to do with an
organization that has proven itself in
competent; that broke its contract TO
give us thirty days notice and gave us
but thirty seconds said General Man
ager Nudge tonight.
THAT is not saying that recognition
will be denied the o. r. T. permanent
ly or under competent management.
am not competent to- speak for the fu-
ture; that is q matter for the railroad
president to determine. Mr.. Ripley, in
an interview, says he favors the as
sistance Of railroad organizations. I
am also in favor of the brotherhOOds.
They are authorized bodies with whom
a great volume of mutual business can
be transacted, where otherwise there
would be no head or authority to trans
act business with.
7 cannot say but that with the same
able and careful management the o.
r. I. would be on the same footing
with the B. Of L. e, 3. Of L. ~. and
other organizations. BY breaking their
contract they have forfeited recogni-
ton. For the present it is a fact.
COuFteSleS 70 the EellOWS lnVOlNed IN
this strike have been revoked, including
Mr.. Dolphin's annual pass among them.
AS to the Colorado disturbances, we
have special agents nut along the line
from Denver to Colorado Springs to
prevent any more annOyances."
c. G. ShOles, superintendent of tel
egraph, says he has a stack Of applica-
tons a foot high from operators who
are anxious to work, and that he has
notified the applicants that no more
are needed.
General Superintendent ResSiguie

officials that the strike is ended.

Rules Are Issued to Soldiers to be
Careful.

London, Dec. 12.-Forty-one procIama-

married. previously in the newspapers.
The last one, dated Nov. Is, says:
AS there appears to be some nisunder-
stand IS regards the burning Of farms,
the commander in chief wishes the fol-
lowing to be the lines upon which gen
eral officers commanding are to act:
mo farm is to be burned except for an
act of treachery, or when our troops are
fired on from the premises, or as punish
ment for the breaking of the telegraph or
railway or when used as q, basis OF opera
tons for raids, and then only with the
direction sent of the general officer com
handing. The mere tact that a buTIheT
Is absent on commando is on no account
to be used as 3, reason for burning houses.
All cattIeS. wagons and fOOdstufrS are tC
be removed from all farms. Fl that is i'm
possible they are to be destroyed, when
the owner is present or not.

Chief of Operators Predicts Triumph
for Men.


Wichita, Kan. Dec 12.-National
President Dolphin of the Order of
Railroad photographers, passed through
here en- route to Topeka. With refer
ence to the Santa Fe strike he said;
1T is my opinion that the strike viii
be adjusted within a few days Just
when. of course, I cannot say. 1 am
confident that the Santa Fe operators
will win their fight. The men have the
sympathy of the tra.amen and 1 know
that If there is any occasion for it they
viii assist them.
mo, I do not propose to order ma
tional strike of the operators. Why
should I? The other men have no
grievances and it viii not assist the
Santa Fe strikers if the others go out.
I cannot say whether or not the train
men will strike. That is a matter for
them to determine and over which
have no control. One of the greatest
operators strikes this country has ever
known was the Canadian Pacific
strike and it was not adjusted until
after eleven days of hard work. The
present strike is but four days old
and we cannot accomplish much in
that time"
