MOUNTAIN STATES
SOME PLACES on TICKET BLANK
IDAHO REPUBLICANS PARTIAL
LY SUCCEED IN BLOCKING.
Time For Filing Destinations and
Substitutions Expires-Secretary
of State Keeps Names on Ballot.
(speciai to The Hera1dl


Boise, Idas Oct. 6.-Today was the
last day on which destinations of nom
nations for Office could be filed. When
the hour arrived for Secretary of State
Patrie to close, no further destinations
nor substitutiOns had been offered him
for filing. Thus the long drawn out
effort in favor of fusion was brought
to an end. blocked by the Republican
secretary of state, who refused to ac-
cept the ticket filed by the Populist
committee substituting Democrats for
candidates on the Populist ticket who
resigned to allow fusion.
The clerks in Mr.. Patrie's office were
busy all day completing the tickets to
be sent out to county auditors, as these
had to be in the mail before the close
of the day. They were all sent off in
registered packages.
There are six ticketS-Republican
Democratic, silver Republican, Popu-
list, ddIe-of-the-R Road Populist and
Prohibition. The Democratic and sill
yer Republican tickets carry the same
names, there being three Populists
among the nominees. These are T. L.
Glenn for congress, E. w. Jones for
auditor and NJ H Jacobs for mine SUI
Derintendent. On the POpuliSt ticket
there are five vacant places, one elector,
governor, lieutenant governor, attor-
ney general and justice of the supreme
court On the Middle of the-Road
Populist ticket there are three vacant
places, justice of the supreme court
auditor and attorney general.
The plan of bringing a mandamus
suit against the secretary of state to
compel him TO file nominations of DEM
oeratic candidates to fill vacancies on
the Populist ticket seems to have been
abandoned. That appears to be the I'M
derstanding among persons of all
parties. Why it has been abandoned
has not been stated by anyone in au-
thOrity. but the suppoSition is that it
is because the Jones resolution under
which it was proposed to file these
nominations was not adopted by the
POpuliSt convention, but that, on the
contrary the Smith resolution prohib-
iting the filing of vacancies on the
Populist ticket with Democratic NOM
inees was adopted by the convention,
the Populist committee thus being left
with no authority whatever to make
the nominations that it sought to have
the secretary of state file
The fact that there are two sets of
Bryan electors is the only basis for the
Republican claim that Idaho is doubt
full. However, it is generally believed
Bryan viii carry the state, but by a
lower majority than would otherwise
be the case.
1t is known that an appeal will be
issued by the Populist committee to all
Populists to vote the Democratic cleo
toral ticket and to support the Demo-
cratic nominees for all places left blank
on the Populist ticket.

RIGHT TO TIMBER INvOL WE'D
OWNERS OF MINING CLAIMS
MAY LOSE LUMBER THEREON.
e. S. Attorney Dismisses the Case
Brought For Cutting Trees on a
Mineral Claim.
Especial Correspondence

Boise, Ida, Oct. ga case involving
the right to cut timber from mineral
land has come up before United States
Commissioner Jonas w. Brown and
brings out an interesting phase of the
Jaw
William H. Ridenbaugh and A. Rossi
were arrested on the charge of illegal
Iy cutting timber from the public do
main. Mr.. Ridenbaugh admitted that
the timber had been cut under his d.
rection, but, he claimed, under the cir
cunnstanceS it was not a--Violation of
the law, which permits the cutting Of
timber from such portions of the public
domain as is known to be mineral in
character and subject to entry as min
erai land only.
The complainant, E. T. Staples,
claims the mining property from which
the timber was cut AS he desired the
timber for his own use he caused the
arrest.
The land being mineral in character,
United States District Attorney CoZier
caused the complaint to be dismissed.
1t. has been popularity supposed that
the holder of a, mining claim was en-
titled to the timber thereon. If the
construction that he is not be correct,
the miner is afforded no protection
whatever with respect to the timber.
He furnishes the proof that the land is
mineral bearing and any one can take
adV2ntage of it and cut the timber off.
1t is likely a test case will be brought
soon with the view to having the ques-
ton definitely settled
Officials at the land office are under
the impression that the mine owner
could prevent the cutting of timber
from his claim. As there is nothing in
the law preventing the cutting of tim
Der from q mining claim, however, the
miner cannot secure protection through
the criminal courts His remedy, if he
has any, lies in a civil proceeding.
Receiver Garrett of the land Office
said: while the law permits the cut
ting of timber from mineral land, still
the man whe appropriates the timber
therefrom is not the sole judge as to
the character of the land. The govern
ment can at any time require him to
furnish proof that the land is mineral,
failure to do which would be followed
by proceedings in the federal court

MEMBERS OF SCANDINAVIAN

The latest plan of the Republicans
for raising money for the Salt Lake

day. A city employee said that he had
been approached and informed that he
must contribute to Chairman Eichnor's

been paid him by the city. More than
this, membe of the Scandinavian Re

employed by the municipality, are be-

earnings to the club, making II per

COLLEGE SEALS.
Copyrighted as Trade Marks by
whisky Manufacturers.

When the Yale university officials
heard that the seal of Yale was now
in use on a certain brand of whisky
manufactured in Pennsylvania, there
was a disagreeable surprise. The near
est approach thus far noticed by the
university officials of the use of the
name Of Yale is on a brand of smok-
ing tobacco. There are also some CT
garS sold in this town called Yale
cigars, but when il was learned that the
seal of the university had been placed
upon whisky a seal that has been
sacredly cherished and guarded ever
since the institution was founded, there
was general protest among the Of
ficers of the university, and it is quite
probable that steps will be taken to
put a stop to such use of the college
seal for trade purposes.
According to the Patent Gazette for
September, issued at the United States
patent Office in Washington, a Penn
.sylvania whisky distiller or distributor
has appropriated as his own especial
property, for trade mark purposes, not
only the titles, but the escUtcheons as
well, of Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Cor
nell, Lehigh, Pennsylvania Johns Hop
kins. Columbia, Chicago, Oxford and
Cambridge universities and Swarth-
more college According to the dec
laration of the individual to whom the
copyrights have been issued, the uni
versity titles and shields are to be used
as trade marke for whisky. The ap-
plications are all filed under date of
July l. 1900, with the statement that the
titles and shields have been used as
distinguishing marks for whisky since
July l. 1890. Each trade mark is issued
under separate application. in which
the essential feature which It is desir-
ed to use as trade mark is set forth
Yale's. for instance, is as follows: ''Es-
senLial feature-the representation of a
shield or escutcheOn and an open book
depicted at the central part of the field
of the same. Used since July / 1900"
The use of the proud names of these
great institutions of learning for the
purpose OF booming whisky is. OF
