What is the Legislature Fcr7

After another sixty days ex-
perience with fusion legislature
the thoughtful citizens Of Idaho
may we'll stop to enquire, What is
legislatu- Z for? In general terms
: legislature is representative
body. But If the legislature Of
Idaho is representative body the
people Of the state will take con.
siderable pride Fence forward 10
hailing FROM some other common
wealth. The daily scenes enacted
q the state capital on the floor Of
the legislature brings added shame
to the fair state Of Idaho. In the
yish antics Of the speaker the
chickering's Of debate among mem
bers enterlarded with personal
charges and countercharges. in the
cfudeness of its methods and
pauc:ty Of results, the present
Idaho legislature gives ample evil
ldence ofincapacity. It IS a time
honored maxim Of Ame rican poli-
tics that governments derive their
just powers from theconsent Of the
governed. To Idaho, judging from
recent legislative history, the forces
Ithat govern derive their power
from the conesnt Of the political 5.
Public interest is lost sight Of in
the workings Of political chicanery.
No attempts are made to justify
certain acts except to set up the
plea Of political expediency. The
reapportionment bill IS : brilliant
example Of the work Of the fusion
machine. It IS ! political Gerry
mander Of the state to perpetuate
The party ID power. Under its pro
visions representative government
In Idaho Is . farce. The county
division bill was another piece Of
infamous legislation. In . legisla-
lative body fully appraised Of the
situation ! measure is passed to
force citizens Of ! certain com
\ II
munity to take up burdens and as.
sume responsibilities against which
they have fled vigorous protest
Rank injustice must Be forced
upon the people to serve the In
terests Of some party favorite. In
the degeneracy that has fallen upon
the Idaho legislature all action for
the public good is lost sight Of in
the growing desire to gain some
party advantage or serve some pri
vate personal end. Politics, ct its
worst, has certainly reached its
ascendency in the record made by
the present state Legislature.

STRANGE TRAGEDY IN TURKEY
striking Example of the EVIL Tint
Ia Wrought by Growing In
temperance.

Orthodox Mohammedans are horri-
fed at the rapid spread of intemper-
ance in Turkey, and they point to a
recent tragedy as q striking example
of the evil that is wrought by indul'
gence in strong drink, says the New
York Herald.
Rassim Bey, a captain of police at
Phanaraki, on the Sea of Marmora, in
vited his friend and colleague Tahsin
Effendi to take supper with him some
days ago. The invitation was ac-
cepted, and the two friends enjoyed a
hearty meal. after which they began
to drink brandy. Tahsin Effendi, after
drinking few glasses, felt that he
had quite enough, and, as he saw that
his host was nearly intoxicated, he
suggested that they stop drinking and
90 out into the fresh air. In Turkey,
however, it is not considered good
manners for a host to stop drinking as
long as any of his guests remain sober,
and therefore Rassim Bey, instead OF
adopting the suggestion, filled his
friends goblet with brandy once more
and insisted that he should drain 1t
at once.
With a smile. Tahsin EfIendi thrust
away the brimming goblet which hls
host held out to him, whereupon Ras-
sim Bey became furious and vowed
that If he did not drain il at once he
would shoot him like dog. TO his
guest this seemed good joke, and he
laughed heartily. but still he persisted
IN his refusal to take the protfered
goblet. saying bluntly that he hac
| drunk quite enough, and that he did
not see any sense in drinking more
than was good for him. Hardly had
| he uttered these words when Rassin
Bey drew his revolver from his pocket
and shot him dead, emphasizing the
| action by thrusting the weapon into
his face. just as a moment before he
/ had thrust the goblet
Tahsin Etfendi rolled under the table
= corpse. and at the ghSstly sight hi'
hosts senses returned and he fed fol
his life. In Phanarald he had one very
intimate friend. his artillery officer
and he took refuge with him and tolC
him the whole story. The officer prom
ised to harbur him as long as he could
but he advised him to surrender to th'
authorities, and this advice Rassim Be,
took. What the result Of this tria
will be cannot be foretold, but it is be
lieved that, in view of his yoluntar,
surrender and of the fact that tn
murder was certainly not premedi
tated only light sentence will be i'm
posed on him.

81 just don't care what papa says, l
will always love him. He was my first
love, and the name Private Brown will
always be cherished one in my heart
How handsome he looked in his new
uniform, with the straps of a first lieu
tenant resting on his shoulders. And
how proud the day when Col. Sanford
introduced him to the officers of the
garrison as a brother officer and as his
prospective son-in-law. from every
officer of the post he received most
hearty welcome into the official ranks,
and not one of them but felt honored
with the friendship of one whose hero
ism had been put to such an extreme
test and had not been found wanting.
A couple of years after their marriage
Lieut. and Mrs. Thornton were sitting
on the porch of their quarters enjoying
the refreshing GOODNESS Of New Mexi-
co summer evening. The lieutenant was
enjoying cigar and watching the ever
changing hues of the western clouds as
the sun slowly sank down behind the
San Mateo mountains while his lovely
wife sat scanning the columns of the
last issue of the Army and Navy Jour
nal.
20, Nedl Here is an item about Mr..
Vandever," she exclaimed.
"What is it, dearP"
Dismissed from the service for cow
ardice in the face of the enemy in an
Indian campaign in Wyoming"
ut does not astonish me-" he replied
"Such unworthy men but rarely get
into the service to cast reproach upon
the most honored profession on earth,
and they invariably meet with their
Just deserts. An ulcer has been re-
moved from an otherwise healthy
body"
Promotion came in successive steps
TO our hero as the years rolled on.
Mai. Thornton now commands one of
the most important posts in the far
west. He is yet in the very prime OF
manhood, and is the idol of his beloved
Alice, whose marital life has been one
of unclouded happiness. The majors
aunt, whom he and Alice several times
visited in her Brooklyn home, died sew
eral years ago leaving HIM large for
tune, vet he remains in the service
where he found such great happiness
and expects to serve his country unit
retired by reason of age.
Often they sit together in the beau
tiful western twilight, the dignified
handsome officer and his lovely wife
and talk of the strange events whicl
clustered around their courtship, anC
the sweet woman is never so happy n
when he gently chides her for her lacl
