COEUR D'ALENE CASE.
INVESTIGATION is CLOSED IN
WASHINGTON.
Idaho's Attorney Shows that Gov.
Steunenberg Acted According to Law
and United States Troops Were Prop
erly Summoned.

The arguments in the Occur d Alene
investigation were closed by John c..
CLANCY, attorney for Gov. Steunenberg,
and the State of Idaho. He confined
himself strictly to the preamble and
resolutions which alleged that the con-
stitution had been violated by the dec
laration of martial law in the State Of
Idaho without request from the State
Legislature. Attorney Robertson, for the
Democrats, devoted almost his entire
time to the subject of martial law, which
was practical admission that the testi-
mony did not prove the other allega-
tons set forth. Part of the time he
assumed that martial law was not in
force and again he undertook to hold
Gen. Merriam responsible for all acts
committed under martial law, whether
by the soldiers or the civil authorities.
Mr. CLANCY took the position that
martial law did exist and had been
properly proclaimed. He quoted from
the preamble Of the resolution, and as
serted the rule of law that the parties
in the prosecution must be bound by
their pleading.
IF martial law is the subject of in
vestigation before this committee he
said, 1T is too late for them 20 go back
on their pleading or to say that their
case has not been fairly stated" He
then took up the question as to whether
or not martial law was in violation of

In Chicago the other day woman
was arrested charged with being va

grant Is "a person who is idle, remains
idle and refuses to work" The defend
ant in this particular case made an ar
0ument that woman was not intended
to work, and the jury returned YER
dict in accordance with the argument,
dismissing the defendant. The verdict
establishes beyond all future controver-
sizes the law Of nature above that of
man, as it was upon natures law that
the argument was made. But there Is
danger in the verdict. 1t may be taken
as an authoritative example by other
courts which would be terrible men

be accepted as an example authority

the fact that woman was not intended

the constitution. He showed conclu-
sively that it devolved upon the Presi-
dent of the United States, and likewise
upon the executive of State, under
the constitutions, both Federal and
State, to see that the laws are duly ex-
ecuted and enforced, and that they may
use force whenever it is necessary to
do so.
After clearly demonstrating that the
Governor of Idaho was right i'll calling
upon the military, without giving the
Legislature a summons to appear in
twenty days and determine whether
martial law was necessary or not,
which would be utterly absurd in view
Of the crisis which was at hand, he
showed that the State militia was en-
gagged in service in the Philippines, and
that national troops were the only ones
that he could summon for his relief.
That is how the Federal and not the
State forces were called upon for duty
in Shoshone County.
THE presumption" declared Mr.. Cha
ney, lis always that a public official
will perform his duty according to law.
He who alleges that an officer has ex-
ceeded his authority or has transcribed
the law must prove it fully" He said
that this principle applied equally to
Gov. Steunenberg, Gen. Merriam and
all of the military officers under him.
After showing conclusively that mar
tial law had been legally declared, he
proceeded to discuss the necessity for
1t, and showed that this was borne out
by the testimony of Gov. Steunenberg,
of Bartlett Sinclair, and by the tele-
grams and correspondence Of the State
officials. Moreover, he declared. that
Shoshone County had been in contin-
nal State of instruction and rebellion
for the past six years.
Considering the permit system, the
attorney demonstrated that it was pro-
claimed by the Governor to weed out
the dynamiters. he said that it was
not directed against organized labor as
such, but against a lawless element.
He said that no complaints were to be
made against unions, because there
was nothing in their constitutions or
bylaws to show that they were not Or
ganized for good and noble purposes.
But the trouble was that they We're.
dominated, in Shoshone County, by
lawless leaders. He said in conclusion
that the conduct of the military authori-
dies was absolutely free from criticism.

CAPTURING A PYTHON,
Great Strength of Philippine Island
Serpent.

Great Strength of Philippine Island
Serpent.
Pythons are numerous in the Philip
pines. We often heard Of very large
ones, says Dean G. Worcester in his in
teresting account Of these much-talked-
islands, but the nearer we got to them
the smaller they grew. Finally, how
ever, we got fine specimen. Some
men had found him coiled up under a
fallen tree. Arranging rattan slip
nooses so that he could not well escape
them, they had then poked him till he
crawled into their snares, when they
jerked the knots tight, and made the
lines fast to trees and rocks.
When we reached the python near
~ stepped on him, for he was stretched
out on the ground and looked for all the
world like log. A venomous hiss
warned me of my mistake and caused
me to beat so sudden a retreat as to
afford great delight to the assembled
crowd of Tagbanuas.
The reptile had about three feet Of
play for his head, and thought it wise
to treat him with respect. Drenching
a handful of absorbent cotton with
chloroform, presented 1T to him on the
end of piece of bamboo.
He bit it savagely and it caught on
the end of his long, recurved teeth, SO
that he could not get rid of 1t. Then
saw Il most remarkable exhibition of
brute force.
Under the stimulus of the chloroform
that python broke green rattans three
quarters of an inch in diameter, and
that without apparent exertion. There
was no thrashing about. 1t was all
quiet, steady pulling. He soon broke
or twisted out of every one of his fast
enings except a running moose around
his neck; and getting hold for his tail
around stump he pulled until it
seemed as If his head would come off.
Eventually the chloroform quieted
him somewhat, and | gave him more.
When he was Still stabbed him to the
heart to prevent further difficulty, and
removed his skin He measured TWEEN
two feet and six inches.

A certain clergyman in manufactur-
ing town in Pennsylvania was recently
lamenting the small number Of mar
riages in his congregation and referred
to the subject in the pulpit, saying
that there were 500 young unmarried
women in the parish and blamed the
young men for the }amentable situa-
ton He charged it to their bashfulness
and their being too avaricious. The
newspapers got hold of his complaint
and their reports were published in 9th
er places, and soon the good man was
overwhelmed with letters inQuiring
about the ladies. with evident desire on
the part of many of the writer's to open
correspondence with some of them. He
Is perplexed with the business he has
thus Internationally got himself into.
He was mistaken, we think, in charg-
Ing the young men with avariciousness
as reason for avoiding matrimony.
The reason would be better stated by
saying that they did not feel able to
support wives in the style that modern
society requires. Wages, in other
words, are 100 low, IN most cases, TO
allow of mourning the expenses of fam
lily life In farming communities the
case is not SO bad, and so far as we
have learned there is about as much
marrying and giving in marriage
among the young people in the country
as was the case score of years ago:
and this is one of the many important
advantages the country has over the
towns and cities.
