cumbs After n Long Illness.

P0MFRET. Conn, Dec. 15.-John Addi-
son Porter, exSecretary to President Nc
kinley, died at his home here today after
a long illness. His death was not unex-
pected, as his life had been despaired of
several times. When he retired from the
post OF Secretary 10 the President he was
In i'll health. Last summer he was COM
PEELED to undergo an operation, and for q
time his condition improved. Later he
went to New York, where he submitted to
a second operation, but without beneficial
results. His death came after u long bat
tie with disease, which his weakened con
stitutiCn was unable to conquer.
John Addison Porter was born April II.

per work in Hartford and was then made

Plat of Connecticut. This position he
filled in 1854 and 1885.
He was elected to the Connecticut House
of Representatives from one of the Hart
ford districts in 1892. At the Republican
State Convention in 1892, Mr. Pnrters
name was presented for the gUbarnarorial
nomination. but he was not successful. At
the conventions OF 1894 and 1896 he was
also candidate.
In the latter year with the strong pres
tige of his position rs Secretary 10 the
President and the influence of Senator
Platt. he was formidable candidate. but
failed of the nomination
Mr. Porter was the first person to as
sumo the title of Secretary to the Presi-
dent an office created by act Of Congress.
He was selected by President Mckinley on
February .. 1897. and began his official
duties on March 4, Mr.. and Mrs. Porter
occupied a prominent position in Wash
ington society during their residence
here. Their home was at 1923 X Street

The above vote will be slightly
changed because the official re-
turns from Lemhi and Bear Lake
counties have not been received,
which will likely add fifty votes to
the democratic ticket.
In summing up the vote of Idlho
as cast November 9Th we find that
it is much larger than had been
anticipated by any Of the leaders.
The vote on president from the
two leading parties was 56,644. The
Statesman has on record S8 anti
fusion populist votes, Al middle-of-
the-road populist votes and ESQ
cast for the prohibition ticket,
making 500 in all. which makes a
grand total Of 81, ,473. It is fair to
suppose that not all the votes Of
the minor parties have been re-
ported, and that our vote stands
between 81 800 and $4,000.
In connection with this it may
be well to state that the official
count has taken one republican
representative from our previous
report, leaving them twenty, and
giving one to the fusion forces
which makes them twenty-nine

Permit Test.

James G. Duffy, a miner from
Butte, has commenced action
against Governor Steunenberg and
Bartlett Sinclair for $1,000 dam
ages alleged to have been sustained
by refusal Of the State to issue to
Duffy a permit to work in the
Ceur d'Alene mines. The com
plant also asks for an iniunction
to prevent the State from further
enforcing the permit system. Duffy
says in the complaint that on Sep
tember Is, 1860, he applied to a.
NJ. Perkins, foreman of the Nam
moth mine, for work, but was un-
able to produce a permit card and
was refused. He says lie then ap-
piled for a permit to DR.. Hugh
France, Deputy George 7 Edmis-
ton and Sheriff Sutherland, but he
refused to sign the card. a. A.
Fraser, attorney for Duffy, says it
is the intention to carry the case to
the United States Supreme Court
in an effort to have the permit sys-
lem declared unconstitutional,
Fraser says the arrangements for
the case were made in Butte
Wallace Minor.

the general prosperity Of the state.
With such inducements for invest
ment aud settlement and home
building, Idaho should grow rap
idly aud solidly during the next
decade. Indeed its advancement
during the past ten years has been
more than gratifying. Its popu-
lation has doubled. It's mineral
output has largely increased. It's
farming area has been greatly ex-
tended, and it has become a fruit
exporting state. 1t has over 2,5OO,-
900 acres of patented land and a
valuation exceeding S50.000.-

Development Of the state has only
begun. To such varied resources
it adds a charming and most

Port Reg ulatiOns mt Manila that Are

pIicntions.

San Francisco, Aug. IA free
translation of regulations recently
promulgated at Manila indicates that
innocent consignees of wares from
this country may be heavily fined for
not following a provision that certain
wares must be invoiced to show the
weight with and without casing.
Copies of the regulations have only
just reached this city. Goods are on
the way that started for Manila be-
fore there was any knowledge OBJ
tainable here that new legal condi-
tons were TO be met. This fact has
led certain prominent business men
in San Francisco to enter into cor
respondence with Secretary of War
Root and also with the officials at Ma
Mia, making protests and asking for
relief.
