In conversation with Mr.. Hermann,
Mr.. Ailshie states he had an interview
with him in relation to the building of
roads. cutting of timber and other work
on the forest reserve. The commis
sioner assured me that while he was
obliged to enforce the law. that he shall
make it his special purpose to see that
the forest reserve laws receive the most
favorable construction possible i'll the in
terest of the miners and settlers on the
reserves and that every favor which can
possibly be granted will be accorded
them. Senator Shoup has done our peo-
pie good service in this natter
This is a matter which has come up
over the fact that persons and copora
tions have not complied with the laws in
cutting timber from the roads.
The government has some fifteen su-
pervisors and rangers there whose duties
are to guard the forests and under the
law no one has right to cut timber,
build roads, or disturb it in any shape,
form or manner without a special permit
from the government, recommended by
the supervisors, and owing to the time
which is necessarily used in securing
these permits persons have built roads,
etc, without them. The consequence is
that the supervisors have been after
them. My conversation with Mr.. Her
man was on the lines as above stated
However, it is expected no serious con
plications will arise at this time as the
department is very much interested in
the opening of the mines and will do ev-
erythiug that can consistently be done
for the further advancement of the min
ing interests. but the laws must be en-
forced, and those desiring to secure tim
ber aud build roads must do il through
the regular channel"

Troops May Land In Japan.

WASHINGTON, July 2o.-As was antic-
ipated, the Japanese government has
given its cheerful assent to the apphca-
ton of the United States government for
permission to land armed troops and mil
itary supplies at Nagaski in transit to
Taku, China.
This privilege was desired in order that
the Pacific transports plying between San
Francisco and Manila should not deviate
from the regular route, but that the
troops aud stock carried by them aud in
tended for service in China might be
transferred at Nagaski to other vessels OF
the transport service and taken direct to
Taku.
The Japanese authorities not only
have agreed to the proposed use Of Ma
gaski, but they also have assured the
United States government that they will
facilitate the movement of American
troops and supplies as much as possible
The quartermaster's department of the
army has provided three large transport.
Of the Philippine service for use on the
line between Nagaski and Taku and it il
expected in this way to expedite ths
movement of troops to China

PoCATELLo, July 81, II:3o a. m.--]Spe-
cial ALPHABETICALLY all morning has been
spent i'll suspense over the action of the
populist convention last night At 1890
this morning the democratic conference
committee reported that the populists
had promulgated an ultimatum that nom
inees OF other parties after the question
of apportionment and assignment had
been arranged should be passed upon by
the conventions. This was evidently de-
vised as means of securing control of the
board of pardons and the state boards
generally. Mr.. Reid took the floor and
pointed out the plot to the convention.
The proposition was rejected by the dem
ocrats by unanimous vote.
This was considered serious obst tue
| ton to fusion. The convention ad-
journed without any definite course out
lined for future action. This morning,
however, after short session the popu-
lists instructed their conference commit
tee to again meet the other members and
attempt again to accomplish an "honor-
able FUSION
There was no mention made to the ul-
timatum. There was no reconsideration
but the instructions to proceed is con-
strued to mean point yielded to the
democrats.
The contention on the part of the pop
ulists for the right to ratify the nomina-
ton for governor and other offices is con-
strued to mean that they want to control
the board of pardons. This agreement
would perhaps bar Rice and others
whom Steunenberg would desire. 1t
would in effect be declaration in favor
of Goode, HALEY or Storer.
PoCATELLo, Idaho, July IL, 1880 p. nj
Especial to the TELLEB)-The demo.
cratic convention has just instructed its
conferees to stand by the following fu.
sion proposition:
Democrats-Supreme judge, governor
lieutenant governor, attorney general
treasurer, school superintendent, and
three electors.
ists-Congressman, auditor ant
mine inspector.
Silver Republicans-U. S. senator ant
secretary OF state.
These have been accepted by the silve
republicans and it has been sent as al
ultimatum to the populists. They ar
demanding besides the offices offere,
them the secretary of state and on
elector, but they will probably accept tn
democratic ultimatum.
2:2o p. m.-The populists have accept
y ed the Offices offered in the democrati
} ultimatium but are now discussing
proposition to make it conditional upo
4 the adoption by the democrats of plan
in their platform denouncing the permi
system and the maintenance of MARTA
law in the Occur Alenes.
ago p. m.-The condition has bee
u adopted by the populist convention.
S 2:45 p. m.-The democratic conventio
