WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN IDAHO.
One Town in Which it Resulted
in Exciting Times

The following story comes from
Weissr Idaho: A good deal of feeling
has been worked up over u local cleo
ton, in which the women, who may
vote in that State, took dsep interest.
On election day the women were thick
about the polls, and two of them, Mrs
Martinson and Miss Harris, the latter
a spinster, INDUCED in a heated alterca-
ton over the merits of their respective
candidates. The argument was closed
by Mrs Martinsen exclaiming.
'If were running for an Office and
found out that withered up, China
faced bag like you was working for me
| would not vote for myself -
The words had scarcely left here lips
when Miss Harris reached over and
clawed her veil and lot of epidermis
from her face. Mrs. Martinson re-
spondsd by giving her antagonist re-
sounding slap on the face that sent her
bonnet to the side of her head. The
women then clinched, and such a hair
pulling and scratching match was never
before witnessed in that usually quiet
village. 1t was all over in few seconds.
The combatants wore separated and led
off, their faces zig-zagged with scratch
es. Each woman had the other arrest
ed, and Mrs. Martinson 5 trial was held
first. A jury of women was summoned
and after the evidence had been taken
the Jurors retired TO deliberate. Be
fore a great while the bailiff heard
screaming inside the jury room. Fore
ing the door, he witnessed a free-for-
all mix-up among the jurors, who, it
developed, were strong friends of one
or the other of the women under ar
rest. Tho officer quieted the jurors
after great deal of trouble. and they
filed into court a sorry-lOoking aggre
CATION, reporting disagreement. Tho
bailiff picked up a bucketful OF hatpins,
switches, ribbons and other feminine
adornment. The Judge reprimanded
the women and turned both the prison
ers loose. Feeling still runs high in
Weiser, and the attendance at church
socials has been reduced about one
half.

The effort which is at present being
made by the District Attorney of Lin
coin county, backed by the Governor,
Attorney General and State Controller,
to force the April Fool and De La Mar
mines to pay fair tax on their net
proceeds, according to law, will be
watched with great deal of interest
all over the State. II those big dividend
payers whose millions 90 out of the
State can escape tho bullion tax, where
is the justice in enforcing the law
against the man who, perhaps after
years OF hard labor, ships a few car
loads Of good ore? The ruse of the De
La Mar Company is evident to all. 1t
simply leases its mill to trusted SER
want, who charges the company an ex-
orbitant price for milling the ore and
then pays back the profits to the com
pany in the form of rent. II the law
won't reach such offenders, it is time to
abolish the law. We will keep our
readers posted as to the developments,
as they materialize.

THE CLARK CASE.

The changes in the Montana Sena-
torial situation last week took place
with lightning rapidity. The first
move was the resignation of Senator
Clark, who apparently did not fancy
the idoa of the proposed application of
the Senatorial boot to the region OF his
coat tails. Then followed the second
surprise in the form of an appointment
of Clark by Lieut.. Governor Spriggs of
Montana to fill the vacancy caused by
his own resignation. 1t was a clever
trick, but the work was too coarse
Governor Smith, who is opposed to
the Clark faction, rushed home from a
business trip to California, whittier he
had been sent, it is alleged, by Clark
supporter in order to get him out of the
State. Then followed the most sensa-
tisnal move OF all. As soon as Smith
reached Helena, he telegraphed to
Clark and the President pro TEN. of
Senate revoking the appointment made
W oho IASNeOh"hV -N'o'Sih Oi3 WI bHt
ground that it was tainted with collu-
sion and fraud: then he appointed
Martin McGinnis in the place of Clark.
What the Senate will do in this COM
plicated condition of affairs is u matter
OF conjecture. Clark has not yet pre-
sented his credentials and McGinnis is
on his way to Washington to present
his counter-clsim to the seat. 1t is
quite probable that tho credentials of
both men will be buried in the Com
mittes on Privileges and Elections till
after the adjournment OF Congress.

We are becoming a nation of beer
drinkers. Forty years ago the Amer
lean people consumed an average OF
one barrel of beer to every sixteen in
habitants. The increase since that
time has been so great, that, during
1899 the consumption amounted to 36,
5sl, ia, barrels, or more than one bar
rel to every two OF our entire population.
The manufacture of whisky has not
been so rapid. In fact more whisky
was produced in 1864 than in 1899.

ANCIENT FISH GOD FOUND
IMAGE OF KUULA DISCOVERED
NEAR KANEOHE.
Was Dug Up by a Native Who
Sold 1t to Rev. Westervelt-The Old
Legend.

What is thought to be one of the few
remaining stone images of Kuula the
nSh god was discovered recently a short
distance from kaneohe on the other
side of the Island. 1t was dug up by
fisherman. The man did not realize
the value of the stone and he offered
it for sale to Rev. w. ID. Westeryelt of
the Kawaiahao church, who secured it.
So far as is known only one other
image similar to the present god is in
existence, this being in the Bishop Mu-
scum. The image is about eight inches
in length and is carved from the hard
fine grained lava. 1t is in the likeness
of fish and though worn and a por-
ton of the tail broken, it shows that
great care must have been taken in cut
ting the idol. Ku was one of the three
great gods of the old Hawaiians, the
others being Kane and Lono. The name
comes from Ku, the god, and ula mean
ing red or blazing. Ku is reputed to have
married Hinohele. Prayers were offer
ed to her in case Ku did not send fish
to the natives and she was to intercede
with him. The red fish which were a
sort of rock fish were almost sacred
and women were forbidden to eat them,
only the high chiefs being allowed to
use them for food. There was also an
omen connected with the appearance of
the fish for the running of the red
death of a member of the royal family
or some high chief.
There was also a second fish god
named Makalei but he was only a sec
ondary element in the worship of the
craven image. Whenever the fish
supply was short, one of the wooden
images was used to try and attract the
fish. The natives builded better than
they knew for while they attributed the
coming of the fish to the favor of Kuula
in reality it was the sort of incense
which they used in preparing the wood
en- god that attracted the fish.
A preparation was made from male,
sweet scented leaf kukui, the candle
nut and niu the cOcoanut. The oil thus
secured was smeared over wooden fish
which were then wrapped in ii leaves
and sunk in the water After this the
priests and others would pray to Kuula
to send them more food and during the
progress of the prayers the preparation
of sweet smelling oil would get in its
deadly work too and the fish would
come swarming about the wooden
! image,
These stone gods were always kept in
heiaus or temples on the headlands
| Rev. Westervelt expects to write a
story about the discovery of the god
and the ancient legend connected with
1t.

REV. SMITH AND NEW INsTRUC-
TORS ARRIVE TODAY.
No Radical Changes Are Contemplated
in The Management of the Institution
New Teachers.

Rev Arthur Maxson Smith the new
president of oahu College was a pas
senger on the China this morning from
the Mainland. He was accompanied
by his wife. Rev. Smith comes from
the University of Chicago where he has
passed the last four years taking a
post graduate course. This year he
received his degree of Phi. d anu last
year the degree of A. NJ. He and Mrs.
Smith are the guests of Governor and
Mrs. Dole. Although President Smith
has been here but a few hours he is
most favorably impressed with Homo
lulu.
From what l was told of the school,
he said Il feel greatly encouraged and
think that the institution will be sue
cessful in every way. am not ac-
quainted as yet with the workings of
the institution so can not say what will
be done in regard to the management.
There will not be any radical reforms
or changes introduced however. OF
course this community will undergo
many rapid changes now and what
changes are made in the college
will be along lines of keeping up with
those on the outside. After we get
started 1T is the intention to add a
kindergarten in connection with the
primary department Miss c. H. Uecke
has come to take charge of the kinder
SdIIen. one mas nau ten years expert
ence with this sort of work in Chicago"
In addition to President Smith and
Miss Uecke three more instructors came
on the China. William Burns a Uni
versity of Chicago man will have charge
of the mathematics. He had extensive
experience in the Chicago High schools
before coming here. Professor f. A.
Ballaseyus will have charge of the mu-
sic. He is an organist and painist and
understands other instruments. He
was head of the music department of
the University of South Dakota and

Johnson is to be in charge of the art
department She has had considerable
experience in this line of work in the
Chicago high and grammer schools. She
will teach drawing, sketching, and

modelling she is preparing to INSTRUCT
in them. Mrs. Congdon came with the
party. She will have charge of the
boarding hall on the campus, a position
| which she formerly occupied at the

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL WORK.
New Instructors Engaged for Boys
Brigade Institution.

Theodore Richards returned on the
China today from a three months visit
to the Mainland. He went east to visit
his mother and other relatives at Mt

WILL REMAIN
POWERS WILL NOT WITHDRAW
THEIR TROOPS.
France Alone of All the Nations Willing
to Accept Russias Proposal-Russla's
Real Ulterior Purpose.

WASHINGTON, September 5.-No
of troops from Peking is
now likely in the opinion of diplo-
mats here, based upon official informa-
tion whish has been received in Wash
ington. There seems to be practical
unanimity of opinion among the powers
outside of Russia that a blunder would
be committed If the Russian plan was
adopted. Germany is understood to
have replied to the st. Petersburg note,
stating the she deemed it unwise to
allow her troops to leave Peking be-
cause all the purposes which led the all
lies to seize the Chinese capital have
not yet been carried out. The German
Government furthermore calls attention
to the position of native Christians, who
if abandoned to the mercies of the impe-
rial Government, would probably be as
ruthlessly slaughtered as were thou
sands of their faith before the occu-
patton.
Italy and Austria have replied along
the same lines as Germany. Great Bri-
tian is known to agree that the inter-
ests of all nations demand the retention
of the troops in Peking. Nothing def
mite as to the attitude of Japan can be
learned, but it is inferred that she
would prefer that the allies remain for
the present. With all the powers, eX-
cept Russia and possibly France,
agreed as to the desirabilty of retain
ing troops in Peking it is plain that
Russia's proposal will not be adopted.
A diplomat who discussed the situa-
tion today pointed out that Russia s
real purpose had probably been achie-
we'd. That purpose, he thought, was to
impress upon China the deep interest in
her welfare felt by Russia. And hav-
ing shown such disinterestedness, and
the other powers having decided on re-
naming in PelIing, Russia can now say
to China that in China's interest as well
as her own it is advisable for the Rus
sian troops to stay
There is reason to believe that some
of the powers have submitted counter
proposals in modification of the Rus
sian plan. AS soon as Russia formally
announces the withdrawal of her pro-
posal negotiations will be begun to de-
termine the force each power shall re-
tain in Peking. After that will come
the all-important question of terms the
powers will demand of China. The
State Department is being kept well
informed of the situation in Southern
China and the authorities appear con
fident that unless some unfavorable
development occurs in the north the
southern Viceroys will be able to main
tain order
