To Be Carried Into Court.

President Joseph p. Blanton has fled
petition IN the district court for writ of
prohibition against the regents of the un-
iversity. The petition asks the court to
restrain the board from doing any act
that will interfere with the plaintiff in
the discharge of his duties as president
of the university. The petition recites
that the plaintiff was employed for per-
iod of three years, beginning September
20, 1898, by contract signed by the
the executive committee of the board of
regents. 1t further rectes that since
that time he has continued in the active
discharge of his duties, that on June ID,
1900, the board created vacancy in the
Office, to take effect September I, 1900,
although the three years contract had not
expired. The plaintiff, in his petition de-
clares that he will not resign, as he has
lat all times exercised with diligence
the services, labors and duties of the Of
fice,' further that no charge is made OF
any failure to perform such duties. The
plaintiff says the unfair method of thus
depriving him of his Office will and is do
ing him an irreparable damage, as it de-
prives him of the position and
discredits him from seeking EN-
ployment elsewhere. Judge Steele is
absent at Boise, but the petition will be
considered by him in chambers when he
returns to Moscow. Willis Sweet has
been retained as counsel for the plaintiff

Rival Politicians Will Shake Hands
on the Eve of Battle.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-Leaders of both great
political parties, including representatives
OF national. state and county organizations,
and state, congressional and county candi-
dates on both tickets In Illinois, will meet
and extend greetings before the formal
opening of the campaign in a reception to
be rendered them on Aug. IL by the Press
Club of Chicago. The reception will be as
unique in its character as national In its
interest. as it will be. probably. the first
time in the history Of politics that so many
men of opposite political faiths have come
together on common ground TO be enter
tanned by their common friends and enc
mics, the newspaper men, and to exchange
friendly greetings on the eve of a great
political battle. The idea, aS at first con-
ceived. was simply to bring together the
candidates on both state tickets in an in
formal way, with a few members of the
national organizations, but the scheme has
been taken up with such hearty good will
by the men who direct the destinies of the
parties in Illinois that IL is now assured
that over 1000 men. prominent in political
life, will be present. The reception, as now
planned. will take place on the steamship
Virginia, of the Goodrich line. one of the
largest and fastest boats sailing on the
great lakes. Besides an Informal banquet.
at which the candidates will be given ali
the opportunities they desire to say things
to their political opponents. an extensive

interesting features Will afford entertain
