THINKS IT A MISTAKE.
Mr.. George Believes Strike Should
Be Called OF.

Lewis George, the one member of the
ScOfieId strikers committee still re
naming in Salt Lake, received a tele-
gram last evening from P. J. Rooney
from ScOheld to the effect that the
strike was continued and that he would
be back in Salt Lake without delay.
What would be the programme for the
future, Mr.. George was unable to say
Personally he thought a mistake was
made In continuing the strike when the
men at the other mines had refused to
Join and stand by the ScOfeId miners.
The meeting of Mr.. George with the
members of the Federation of Labor
scheduled for last evening did not ma
terialize and legislative matters are
just where they were.

placed as he retreated from Parker $

MARTIAL LAW UPHELD
idaho House Tables Resolution
for its Abolition.
TRIESCH IS ARRESTED
SPEAKER HAS HIM BROUGHT
BEFORE BAR.
Cspecfal to The Herald.N

Boise, Ida, Feb. 15.-The house today,
by vote of "a to o. tabled the resolution
by Adams (POpulisO of Washington cOun-
ty asking the governor to declare martial
law off in ShOshone county.
The vote was preceded by one of the
most acrimonious sessions in the history
of the body. Representative Triesch Of
Nez Perez, who left the hall when voting
commenced, was arrested. When he was
brought in by the SeTgeant-at-armS he
denounced the speaker in unmeasured
terms for an order which he said was in
violation of ali precedent He claimed no
member could be forced in without call
of the house.
Mr.. Triesch voted to table the resolu-
ton. In explanation he said his con-
stituents favored the establishment of
martial law in the Occur dAlenes, and
would expect him 10 vote against the
pending resolution. Personally he would
be inclined the other way. He had left
the hall to escape voting, he said, and his
action was predicted on an understand
ing had with the speaker even before the
opening of the session Representative
MOunce, Trieschs colleague, was also
absent. The speaker ordered his arrest,
but the house voted to excuse him.
When he returned to the chamber he eX-
planned lie had gone to the train to see
his brother of. Speaker McKin1dy then
apOlOgized for the order he mad made in
ms case.

The resolution was as follows:
~ hereas, BY proclamation Of the gov
eTnOr, Gated May 8, 1889, ShOshOne county
was declared to be in a state of inSurrec-
ton, and placed under martial law; and,
Nv hereds, The governor or 1oaho IN mis-
message TO tins body, dated jan Z, 1901,

as those OF any county in the state; ana,
Whereas, Civil hOerty is a right COM
mon TO ali portions of the state alike and
should not De abridged except in cases of
emergency; and,
w hereaS, The emergency does not now
exist and the need tor martial law in

upon the people of ShOshOne county as
well as discredit the state in the eyes of
American people. Therefore, be it

tain TAYLOR. We dug a grave there and
we buried TAYLOR and three soldiers-the
others had fallen by the way-and near by
we buried two mountain howitZers, the
kind that are packed by mules. There was
nothing else to do with them.
When we retreated from Steptoes Butte
no one followed. That was the end of
that battle to those Of us who escaped.
There was aHother end to those whom the
red devils had captured. Sergeant VIII
liams was put to death-we never knew
how, but we supposed he was tortured
by being burned at the stake That was
the favorite method Snichster, a Nor
wegian, was made to run the gauntlet by
swimming across the river while his tor
mentors stood on the bank and fired at
him. He was a good swimmer and he
escaped.
1t was when Colonel Wright took hold
of matters that there was a grand SET
Ting. He said that the Indians woul
have to pay for a life with a life, and he
told old Spokane Gerry, the biz chief, So
Spokane Gerry began to realize at last
that the colonel meant business and he
went about seeing that the thing was
carried out, for the colonel informed him
that he would hold three families as host
age for every murder.
Presently a big Indian a sulky looking
brute, came into the camp with a paper
which he handed to the colonel His
squaw was along with him. When the
colonel looked at the paper he discovered
that it was a neatly made out death war
rant for the bearer. We never knew for
certain who made out that warrant and
the others that followed, but we always
supposed 1t was the old priest, Father da
Smet, who was in the confidence of Spo-
kane Gerry. AT any rate, none OF the
bearers knew the contents, but had evil
IDENTIFY been given some fictitious explana-
ton of them by their chief, who had
picked those he considered the most easily
dispensed with.
No sooner had the colonel read the war
rant than he ordered US, his men who
