INNOVATION IN PLATFORM
Especial to The Herald.)

n OcATELLo. Ida. Sept. 25.-The
Bannock county Democratic con-
vention met in this city today
with all but three precincts fully rep
resented. Chester Call was elected
chairman and L. c. Pond secretary at
the morning. session. The usual com
mittees were named and an adjourn
ment until this afternoon taken, when
the platform was adopted.
The platform reaffirms faith in the
Declaration OF independence, allegiance
to the constitution and to Jeffersonian
Democracy. 1t asserts that no nation
can long endure which is half republic
and half empire. IL endorsed the Ida
no Democratic platform and especially
the plank pledging the enactment of
fellow servant legislation. II favors
the exclusion of all cooke labor and
opposes the importation of paupers. to
which IL attributes the great anthra-
cite coal strike.
The platform invites capital 10 Po-
catellO and favors such reduction OF
taxes as would make II possible for
capital TO come 1t condemns the Re
publican board Of commissioners for
an increased tax levy. 1t pledges sup
port to the Academy of Idaho. deplores
the inefficiency of the present Repub-
lean county administration. especially
the conduct OF the sheriffs ONCE. Es-
pecial attention is called to the fact
that the BannOck county Republicans.
while pledging support to their state
ticket, fail entirely to endorse their
state platform. The resolutions also
declare that a failure on the part of
any nominee TO pay his campaign as
sessment shall be regarded as a resig-
nation from the ticket.
The convention tonight completed its
work by the nomination of the follow
ing ticket:

tives. Howard Thatcher and George H.

BELLEVUE HOSPITAL
DOCTORS PUZZLED

New York, Sept. 27.-Physicians at
Bellevue hospital and officials of the
outdoor poor department are greatly
mystified over the conduct of man
who was taken TO the hospital on La
Dor day suffering from malaria. He
has not spoken a word since arriving
there.
II was assumed the patient was a
foreigner and effort was made to bit
upon some language he could under
stand. One after another was tried
without success. Fifteen different
tongues were turned upon him with
out effect. Finally the sign lang%lge
of deaf mutes was brought into play
but the man evidently understood
what was being done and merely shook
his head.
The illness passed away and some
disposition had to be made Of the pa
tient. so he was turned over to the
poor department. Here an effort was
made to put him to work. A pail and
scrubbing brush were placed in his
hand and signs were made that he
should clean the floor. He shrugged
his shoulders YEARLY, laid the articles
ON the floor and resumed his seat.
Efforts are being made 10 find ko-
reans and EsquimauX in the hope or
getting him to talk TO them. as rear
" everything else has been tried.
Evidently the man is recent ar
rival in the country, and how he got
past the immigration officials is a
mystery.

CO0LIE LABOR DESIRED
Sugar Planters of Hawaii Say
They Cannot Secure White
Men For This Work.

Honolulu. Sept. is. cvia San Fran

mission has been steadily engaged in
taking testimony In regard TO condi-
lions here practically ever since the
senator's arrived. Tomorrow the par
ty leaves for Hilo and the island Of
Hawaii. 1t will resume the taking Of
testimony in Honolulu next Monday.
The commission has heard testimony
on the widest variety of subjects. Ev-
cry person who desired TO be heard
has been given an opportunity to
speak. Nearly two days were Occu-
pied in hearing statements regarding
the management of the leper settle
ment. Almost all who were heard on
the subject objected to a transfer of
the control of the settlemepk>from the
territory TO the federal authorities.
The principal persons heard were At
torney General Dole. DR.. Sloggett, the
president of the board OF health, and
w. o. Smith. formerly attorney gen.
eral.
The Planters association presented a
memorial urging that congress modify
the Chinese exclusion act so as to
permit the Introduction of a limited
number of Chinese laborers TO be en-
ployed for limited periods in plantation
work exclusively. The argument for
this is that white labor cannot be Sc
cured for this class of labor. but that

OLD SUIT is RENEWED.
Case of Hyams and Erwin VS.. BAN
berger and Salisbury Up Again.

A suit involving practically the same
points which have been in litigation
FOR the past eleven years was renewed
in Judge Stewards court yesterday and
promises another term OF legal wrang-
ling.
The case is that of Louis Hyams and
]. A. Erwin against Simon Bamberger
and o. ]. Salisbury, praying for an acr
counting between the cOntending par
ties and TO recover the difference be-
tween the value of certain promissory
notes of one John Beck for $4,000 less
the amount owing by the plaintiffs 10
the defendant upon a promissOry note
for the amount of $4,000 and interest.
The notes for $4,000 were secured by
1000 shares OF the William Beck and
Champion Mining company.
The contention as set forth in the
complaint is that in December, 1891. the
defendants, who held the notes of Beck
and the stock. as pledges, converted
them into cash and IL is now sought
to recover their value.
A case involving the same questions
was brought in November, 1891. and
tried in 1892. resulting in a judgment
in favor of Bamb=rger and Salisbury
An appeal was taken 20 the supreme
court and the decision OF the lower
court was reversed. the case being sent
back for a new trial. II was again
tried in 1896 and a verdict for sl1, 900
rendered for the defendants. This YER
dict was. in turn, set aside and the
case again tried In 1886 before a jury
which returned a verdict in favor OF
the defendants. The latter verdict
has never been appealed, but in spite Of
that fact the plaintiffs now seek 10 have
the court compel the defendants to give
an accounting in an equitable action.
The defense In the case which was
renewed yesterday will plead that the
former trial and verdicts are ar ad
Indication of the action and will also
plead the statutes Of limitation and
estoppel.

Since William Hooper Young was
about 10 years old his mother has not
had charge of him. He was sent to a

SALT LAKER HAS CONE TWENTY-FIVE DAYS
WITHOUT TOUCHING A MORSEL OF FOOD

On the third day OF rhIs month he
ate a small luncheon after a day of
abstinence, and since that time not a
morsel of food has passed his lips; in
fact, he has partaken OF nothing but
water. He drinks distilled water and
on some days he has not drunk more
than half pint OF that. Naturally
he has become very emaciated, but he
has been up and about the house dur
ing the entire time.
In distinct contradiction to the state
ments advanced by others who have
tasted, as TO the loss of appetite af-
ter the first few days. Mr.. Busby has
at no time felt but that he could eat
a hearty meal and enjoy IL, and the
odor of steaming viands has often been
tantalizing. Just how much longer he
may prolong the period of fasting he
does not know himself, but he expressed
the opinion yesterday that he would
not crafty his desire for food until
he felt that he had been cured.

Today is the twenty-second day OF
fasting for ]. z. Busby OF this city.
during which time he has not tasted
food OF any kind. Although the medi-
cal world may be agreed upon the
question OF the average human being
eating more than is required by the
laws OF nature. there is not any such
agreement as TO the beneficial results
to be derived from giving the system
absolute rest for a definite period.
Mr.. Busby. however. has not con-
suited any physician and is under the
direction Of no one In the treatment
he is undergoing. For several years
he has been troubled with a disorder
OF the stomach which has gradually
developed from ordinary dyspepsia into
chronic gastritis. His condition being
such that he could find no relief from
those remedies usually prescribed. and
having read a great deal about the
seemingly miraculous cures from fast
ing, he decided to try it.

in the district court yesterday against
the city OF Salt Lake and Richard P.
Morris, city treasurer, praying for
judgment and also asking that the de-
PENDANTS be prevented from collecting
the special tax levy OF $3.50 per front
foot for paving the alley between
Main and Commercial streets. The
city council levied the tax and threat
ems TO enforce its collection. and the
plaintiff declares that the levy is IL
legal, for the reason that he owns part
OF the property which the city pro-
poses 10 improve and that no one other
than himself has the right 10 make
such improvements. The suit is
brought in conjunction with other
property owners on the alley.
