Word received from Boise Yesterday

But in the evening session motion to

great fight was made in the consider
alton Of the bill. G. G. Fuller was given
the privileges Of the floor against strenu.
GUS protest from Moore. Of Idaho county,
who objected to townsite boomer
peddling his wares on the floor of the
house Senator Moody took the floor in
defense of the bill. Both Fuller and
Moody were bitter in denouncing the
claim that there was townsite deal back
Of the measure.
The opposition presented strong case
F. l.. Parker Of Nezperce was called upon
and protest presented as resident OF
the section. Representative Mounce
showed how bitterly opposed to the di.
vision the residents Of the proposed new
county were. He emphasized his re-
marks by citing the affidavits aud peti.
tions Of remonstrance sent in from his
county. The main speech Of the opposi-
ton was made by Treisch Of Nezperce
who attacked the bill on three PROPOSE
tions: its constitutionality lack Of econ.
omy and desire of the people. The law
was specific on the legality Of creating
new county with less than 81 .ooo.t 90 as
sessable property. He asserted that the
proposed new county did not have half
that amount; not even enough, he as
serted, to pay the salaries Of the officers.
The vote being taken the bill was defeated
by the close call Of ~ 10 II. In scanning
the personnel Of the vote it is noticeable
that Latah county voted for division and
that Idaho county voted against II.
After recess the house reconvened at 81
O'Clock p. IN. Immediately Smith Of
Idaho moved reconsideration. The
motion carried by vote Of 81 to ii
though bravely fought by Mounce and
Triesch. On the reconsideration Idaho
county representatives voted against Nez
Perce.

BOISE, March 4.-The session of the
house was characterized today by gr. at
excitement, and there came near being a
summary decapitation of Speaker Nc
k'nlay. An effort was made BY the fu-
sion majority to change the rules to give
them greater power in passing some
measures of a political character, partlcu-
larly the reapportionment bill The
rules of the house provide that they can
not be amended excepting by two
thirds vote. The speaker announced
that he would hold that majority was
sufficient.
When the motion was made today to
make change il was defeated by two,
not even a majority voting for it, There
has been great deal OF dissatisfaction at
the speaker, and many fusionists broke
away from him on this vote.
The speaker refused to announce the
vote. The understanding Is that he was
hoping to secure majority vote by
changes and then announce the rule
aimed at had been changed. He de-
clared the regular order of business
should proceed, and that he would au-
nounce the vote when he he was ready.
This brought forth storm of protests,
and finally Sweetzer, republican, offered
resolution declaring the position Of
speaker vacant and providing for the
election of some one else.
There were many seconds from all
parts Of the house, many fusionists tax
ing occasion to show they were anxious
to vote for the removal Of the speaker.
The latter. seeing how things were 20
ing, saying he thought the time had
come to announce the vote and he did so. |
Mr.. Sweetzer then Withdrew his motion. |

| bOISE, M0rCn S.-ln the senate, during
consideration in committee of the whole
of bill by Senator Macbeth, democrat,
Of Custer county, amending the election
law SO as to prevent fusion in the future,
representatives of two of the wings Of the
last fusion in the state clashed. When
the bill was laid before the Committee an
effort was made to dispose Of it summarily
in order to prevent discussion. but it
failed. Senator Macbeth, in defending
the bill, spoke with more than his usual
vigor. $50 far as am concerned, as a
democrat" he said. II much prefer that
the democratic party in this state never
again gain ascendency in the Idaho leg
islature than to have majority As we
now have, dominated by populist mi
nority. The democratic dog III the leg
islature has been wagged by the pop
tail until am sick and tired Of It. This
has been particularly true during the
past IS days.
Senator Ballantine, populist leader in
the senate, said:
1--WE can get along without the demo
Gratis IS well as the democrats can get
along without US. Fusion has injured
our cause and we do not care whether
you pass this bill or not"
After some further discussion the bill
was tabled by vote Of 8so7. A laugh
went up when Macbeth voted to table.
He's lost his nerve Senator Gooding
shouted across. II have not McBeth re-
piled. II have been and am against
fusion and put this bill in to test the
feeling Of the democratic senators. con-
slider the party has spoken to me through
them, so must subside."

Long Pending Litisation-A Recent Decision
Shows New Feature in the Case.

In November 1895 two men by the
name of Brockman and Rookie, from
Idaho county. were brought before one
OF our courts on the charge Of cattle
stealing. Three Indians, Mark Arthur.
Isaiah Bailey and Eddie Connor. were the
complaining witnesses. James w. Reid
appeared for the prosecutors. The de.
PENDANTS were held to answer but were
never convicted.
While the defendants were in Jail. be.
fore bonds were secured, demands were
served upon them by Reid, as attorney
for the Indians, for $6Io, the price of the
cattle claimed to have been stolen. The
records in the case show that in Decem.
ber following Brockman and Rookie paid
to James w. Reid, as counsel for the In.
dams, $500. A receipt given by Reid. as
attorney for the Indians, recit~s that
sum was in full for the cattle together
with all costs, expenses and damages ia
recovering the same.
Matters getting warm, an action was
commenced by John Green, a. assignee
OF Rookie and Prockman. against the
the three Indians and James w. Reid for
the payment Of the money to Green.
Affidavits in the case state that Reid
prepared complaint causing himself
and his Indian clients 10 be sued by Tohn
Green for the $500 he received fol his
Indian clients. Reid admitted in his
answer the receipt Of $500 for the In.

SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING PORTION.

This great story of sensational conSpl-
racy which makes Burr's life unique >in
American history is explicitly set forth IN
this remarkable serial. The historical
characters involved in the story are
drawn true to life, and include, beside
Burr, Mrs. Samuel Chick, of Albany, Paul
Livingston, Samuel Swartout, hatchery,
Il scheming attorney and banker of Al
bauy; Harry Granger, Il romantic youth,
who had fallen under the influence of Burr
in the East, and who by misfortunes, in
Guiding the death of his father. had been
impelled to migrate to the then infant
State of Ohio. and Jem BOunder, Il poor
New jersey coast fisherman, who had been
acquainted with Granger in the East. Be
sides, there are some minor characters,
more or less typical of the times. Burr's
term as President having expired in
March, 1905, and as he was under indict-
ment for murder of Hamilton i'll both New
York and New Jersey, he went West and
organized the conspiracy to found great
Southwestern Empire. Associated with
him in this plot were Blennerhassett. Gen.
Wilkinson. and others of more or less
prominence. Harry Granger was sent by
Burr to Albany with secret message to
hatchery, and while there renewed his
acquaintance with Miss Livingston. whose
father had been ruined through the trick
cry of the scheming old banker. He was
given cipher letter by hatchery, but re-
turning West he found that Burr was still
in Washington, so went to his own home
in Ohio. While there he lost the cipher
letter. Burr returned to the West iii the
Spring of 1906 to complete arrangements
to move South. Harry Granger and 9th
ers of the party went to Marietta.

sending up into his room those whom he
wished to become witnesses of his acting
under sanction. BY this means he avoided
committing himself to any liability to
prosecution for forgery, and gave another
proof of being great man in little things,
while he was really small among great
ones | must add Gen. Dearborn's decla-
ration, that he never wrote a letter to Burr
in his life, except when here, once, in a
Winter, he usually wrote him billet of
invitation to dine"
Thomas Jefferson was not a man to
write or speak falsehood. and although
the friends of Burr have tried to east Il
doubt on the statements of the PRESIDENT
his words stand forth as true.
In October Mr.. Aston arrived, and soon
after he, Theodosia and Blennerhassett
journeyed by easy stages to Lexington, in
kentucky. leaving the energetic wife of
Blenncrhassett upon the island, to super
intendeut the great concerns there going
forward. On their journey they found the
country full of rumOrS concerning Burr,
and some schemes he was said to have in
hand. but they observed that these rumOrs
were generally believed to be groundleSs,
and attributed them to the malice of
Burr's old enemies, the Federalists.
In Il few weeks the press began in
confused and doubtful tone to sound the
alarm In the Western World. Il news
paper published at Frankfort Ky. there
appeared some articles in which Burr's
scheme was Swallowed forth and himself
denounced as a traitor. The writer de
Scantcd on the disunion party of lI9G, re-
stated its plan of diSuniOn. denounced
anew the surviving members of the party,
