BoIsE, Idaho, Nov. 77.-Among the
first duties Of the coming Legislature will
be the settlement of election contests, of
which there will be several. There will
be at least two from Bear Lake county
and in all probability four from Shoshone.
Notices Of the Bear Lake contests were
served today. They are brought by the
two republican candidates for the house
who, in the face If the returns, were de-
feated. They are Wilford w. Clark, who
was defeated bv six votes, and James
Redmond, who was 81 shy. The success
full candidates, democrats, are John b.
Brenan and Emmett J. Howell There is
no fraud charged in these cases. 1t is
simply set up that the election judges
erred in throwing out certain ballots.
These were, it is claimed, voted for the
straight republican ticket and there were
enough Of them, if counted, to change
the result in favor of the republican candi-
date. The populists made no nomina-
tions for county and Legislative Offices,
leaving the space to the left Of the republi-
can county ticket blank. A number oi
voters placed their marks to the left ol
the republican names instead of the
right 1t is claimed that it can be showr
that it was the intention Of these voter.
to vote the republican county and legis
lative ticket. If any contests are begun

AS has heretofore been published, it ha
been alleged that gross frauds were com
mitted in Wallace, a sample ballot hav
ing been found in the ballot box, Judge
having marked the tickets Of voters, etc
II these alleged errors and frauds in Bea

 The number savings banks in Arkan- sas are scarcely worth counting, but if we had much larger number the peo- pie would have a great deal more money. Saving is habit, and is one that needs to be encouraged in the south. A great reason why our people are not as thrifty and economical as other people is found in our failure to supply safe and convenient depositor- ies for the nickels, dimes and quarters now squandered. There ought to be savings bank in every village and town in the state. It is not the money that is made that counts, but the money that is saved.

Lamberson, whose wife died a few weeks ago. went lo the depot, a short distance from his place of residence, to meet a relative, leaving the chil- dren alone. A few minutes later the building was discovered on fire. It is supposed the children, who were in the second story, were unable to es- cape on account of the doors being locked, as the firemen, who rescued the bodies, had to force an entrance. Two of the little fellows were found in bed, dead from suffocation, and the third lay behind a trunk near one of the doors. It is thought the latter tried to reach the door but was overcome by the heat and smoke. The children were buried in one grave.

Suit Against state oaioial..

In United States court at St. Louis last week, Judge H. C. Caldwell, heard an application for a mandatory injunc- tion prayed for the Farmers National Bank, of Hudson, N. Y, growing out of an Arkansas bond issue. The de- fendants are Gov Daniel w. Jones. Secretary of State Alex C. Hull, and Auditor Clay Sloan. Jefferson Davis, attorney-general and governor-elect, represented the interests of the Arkan- sas officials in the proceedings. The bank brought suit to compel the gov, ernor and his colleagues to refund s64, ,000 in bonds, as ordered by legisla- tive act of 1899, wherein refunding the bonded debt of the state was author ized. Through some error, the bank maintains, the bonds which it owned were returned to the state officers with out having been paid. The bonds in question were issued in 1S36 In 1871 the bank applied to the fiscal agent of Arkansas in New York to have the bonds exchanged, and the complaint charges that the new bonds given in ex- change were invalid. The old bonds were originally the property of ". B. DuclSlin, and at his death the heirs sold them to the bank. The defense set up the plea that the old bonds had been destroyed
