Murray of Butte, chief owner of
the old opera house building was III
the city Sunday and Monday.
While here he made several offers
to the citizens of Pocatello, regard

One of these was an offer to sell the
old property outright andloan $40,
600 at five per cent interest, to
apply on rebuilding the burned
house, on condition that $4,000
was raised by citizens. It was this
proposition that Col. G. A. Hanna

A Bicycle Decision.

The use Of the bicycle has be-
come so general that a legal deci-
sion which affects the rights of
bicyclists is interesting and impor-
| tant.
The supreme court Of Massa-
chusetts has held recently that a
blcvcle is machine rather than IA
vehicle.
\ woman riding on the streets of
Danyers ran into a hole, breaking
her wheel and sustaining bodily in
| lures. She brought suit under a
statute which requires townships
to keep thelc highways "reasona-
| BILE safe for travellers, with, their
horses. teams and carriages. "
The jury returned a verdict Of
$3.50 damages, and counsel for
the township appealed the case.
The Supreme court reversed the
Judgment. 1t admitted that for
certain purposes a bicycle might
be considered a vehicle. Its 'ow-
ner has the right to use the roads
and may he subject to tolls, but
connot collect damages for inju-
ries to the machine and person Of
its rider caused by rough places
in the highway. The court went
on to say that a bicycle is practi-
caIly useless in wet weather or on
frozen ground. Its safety depends
upon a pneumatic tire which is
easily punctured and sit would
impose on intolerable burden
upon towns to hold them bound
to keep their roads in such a State
of repair and smoothneSs that a
bicycle could go over them with
assured safety"
This is what the supreme court
of Massachusetts thinks and has
decreed, but the highest legal tri-
bunals of other States might take
a different views of the matter.
1t is not hard to find court deci-
sions on both sides of almost
every sort of case. Atlanta

Louisiana and Mississippi tonight

after the conclusion of Chairman

Chairman Richardson buiIded an

OUR PARIS LETTER


Editor Of the Sea Coast Echo:
Paris, June Is, 1900.
l see from a French paper, that
Paris is expecting a visit from
the Rough Riders Of the late war.
The paper explains that the Col.
Roosevelt cOmmandant of the
Rough Riders, promised the sol
diers Of that famous battalion that
if they would fight well he would
take them to the Paris Exposition
and thus stimulated by that pro-
mise, they charged and captured
Santiago. and now Colonel Roose-
welt will keep his word and bring
his rough riders to the Exposition.
This | know will be news to your
readers and to Gov. Roosevelt's ;

ton came as the elimination Of a
frenzied demonstration in honor
of the party leader, lasting twen-
ty-scycn minutes, and giving ut
terance to all the pent-up emo
tions of the vast multitude. 1t
followed also a fierce struggle
throughout the last thirty six hours
concerning the platform declara
ton of silver and the relative pos
ltion which the silver question is
to maintain to the other great is
sues of the day.
1t was late this afternoon when
the convention was at last face to
face with the presidential nomina-
ton. Early in the day there had
been tedious delays owing to the
inability of the platform commit
tee to reconcile their difficulties
and present Il report. Until this
was ready the convention mama
gers bcguiIed the time by putting
forward speakers of more or less
prominence to keep the vast au-
lience from becoming restless.
The first session, beginning at 10
o'clock this morning; was entirely
fg'uitlcss of results, and it was not
until late in the afternoon when
the second session had begun that
the platform committee was at last
able to report an agreement. AL
ready its main features, embody-
ing the 16 to principle, had be-
come -l>rruvr-r4-t TO thc--4CrpSares -;rnrt
there was little delay IN giving it
unanimous approval. This remov-
ed the last chance for an open
rupture on questions of principles
and left the way cl9ar for the su-
preme event of the day-the nom
ination Of the presidential candi-
date.
The vast auditorium was filled
to its utmost capacity when the
moment arrived for the nomina-
ton to be made. Not only were
the usual facilities afforded by
tickets taxed to their utmost, but
the dOorkeepers were given lib
cral instructions under which the
aisle and areas and all available
spaces were pack to their fullest
limit. When the call of states be-
gan for the purposes Of placing
candidates in nomination Alabama
yielded its place at the head of
the list to Nebraska and Oldham,
Of that state, made his way to the
platform to place Mr.. Bryan in
nomination. The orator was
strong-voiccd and entertaining,
and yet to the waiting delegates
and spectators there was but one
point to his speech, and that was
the stirring perOration which
closed with the name of w. j.
Bryan. This was the signal for
the demonstration of the day, and
in common purpose the great
concOurse joined in Il tribute of
ENTHUSIASTIC DEVOTION
to the party leader. y huge oil
portrait of Bryan, measuring II
feet across. was brought down the
main aisle before the delegates,
At the same time the standards Of
the state delegations were torn
from their sockets and waved on
high, while umbrellas of red and
blue, silk banners of the several
states and many handsome and
unique transparencies were borne
about the building amid the deaf
ening clamor of 10000 yelling,
gesticulating men and women. All
Of the intensity of former demon
strations and much more was adj
ded to this final tribute to the
leader.

SCARCITY OF COAL.
Serious Famines of the Article In
Russia and Germany.

Recent information furnished the State
Department indicates the existence of seri-
Gus coal famines in Russia and Germany.
Consul General Guenther, at Frankfort.
writes that never before in the history OF
Germany has there been such a demand
upon the coal production Of the country as
at present. Notwithstanding the fact that
last years output was 4,o00,00 tons In eX-
cess of the preceding years supply, the
amount on hand is entirely inadequate to
meet the ever-tncreasing demand. The mlp,
lister of commerce has sent an inquiry to
the coal mine owners Of Upper Silesia ask
ing whether the coal production could be
increased by establishing greater number
of shafts at the mines, and assuring them
of state aid If such be the case.
In Russia about the same conditions exist
as to the scarcity of coal, the supply being
enormously large, but stiH not large enough.
The extension of railways and the increased
industrial activity in Russia account in
large measure for this condition, hut the
undeveloped state of the coal mining in
dustry itself also plays an important part
in the situation. The permanent abolition
of duties on foreign coal and coke has been
urged a remedy, but this the authorities
declare to be out of the question.
American coal is very much In demand in
Austria, France, Japan, the Netherlands
and in Russia, and our consuls at various
points in these countries are besieged with
Inquiries looking to the extensive fmporta-
tion OF the American product.
