THE SENATOR
MIR. Hepburn Talks of Some Needed
Legislation.
is STRICTLY CONSERVATIVE
Not Advocating Radical Measures
Discusses Mining Laws, lrri-
cation and Politics. al,

w. B. Hepburn, United States
Senator-elect from Idaho, arrived
in Spokane last evening on his way
from Boise City to his home in
Wallace, says the Spokane Review
of the 18TH. He will remain in
the city today and leave this even
ing for Wallace. While here Sena-
tor Hepburn is visiting his mother,
Mrs. Sarah G. Hepburn of At Sew
enth avenue.
The new Idaho Senator will
spend about ten days in Wallace,
putting his business in order for au
absence of some weeks. It is his
intention to go to San Francisco to
attend the session of the United
States Circuit court of Appeals,
then go directly to Washington.
The political situation in Idaho
could not be BETTER" the Senator
elect said in answer to a question.
The Republican party was never
NC. united and there are no signs
OF any conflicts over Federal pa
tronage or on other accounts. [
anticipate no conflicts over Federal
offices in Idaho"
Replying to questions as to his
plans for work at Washington, Mr..
Hepburn said:
Il do not expect to go to WASH
ington to conduct crusade against
existing laws. My views on the
present mining statutes are pretty
we'll understood, but I may say that
I Go not believe in seeking radical
changes in long established laws.
l would, however, favor such minor
changes as would avoid the difficult
ties now arising from the conflicting
end lines of neighboring claims. l
shall oppose any attempt to change
the principle of the Present law
which supports extra lateral rights,
or in favor of the so-called square
claim.
"Another important subject in
which am greatly interested is
irrigation. The new Federal stat
ute is an admirable and very COM
petent law, and I do not anticipate
that it will need more than minor
amendments from time to time, as
experience may show their advisa-
bility. The main thing now is to
get the states in line with this act.
1t will be necessary for them to so
adjust their legislation as to enable
the act of Congress to be made
effective. State laws will have to
be passed establishing a procedure
in condemnation of land for the
government reservoirs. These will
have to tie drawn with care, as the
work we are entering npon is
Ole OF vast importance to the West
and will grow 10 immense rropor-
tions i'll The near future. Our
western states cannot afford to make
any mistakes that Will give a set
back TO progress i'll this direction. /"
1t is reported that Andrew Car
negie has an assured income of
SIS, 100000 a year. This means
$356,ooo week, $49,oo a day,
S., 900 an hour, $34 a minute and
fifty cents second. It looks as
though Mr.. Carnegie is doomed to
die disgraced, after all.
Our English cousins do not un-
derstand the gentle art of taxation.
They have just raised the price of
bread cent a loaf. This will
cause no end of trouble. They
ought to have lightened the loaf
three or four ounces. Most people
worry very little over what they
don't see.

BOISE LEGISLATIVE: NEWS.
Given in Brief By Our Correspondent
at the Capital.
BOISE, IDAHO, Jan. 22, 1903:

The third week of the Seventh
Session Of the Legislature draws to
close with little done in the way
of definite legislation but with ali
committees and members hard at
work formulating and sitting out
proposed measures. This stage of
proceedings is devoid of popular in
terest and the only incidents that
savored of a scrap were the daily
efforts on the part of the minority
III the House to force through some
resolution committing the House to
the approval of the States
finances and thereby giving their
endorsement to the late 1amented
Democratic administration. Very
ingenious resolutions were intro
duced for this purpose with the
main purpose of the resolution care
fully secreted among glowing trib-
utes to the vast resources of our
State. The attempt was SO evident
to forestall the reports of the Com
mittee en- State Affairs that it was
promptly voted down and answered
on Thursday by a concurrent reso-
luton authorizing the joint conf
mittee to employ experts to aid
them in their examination of the
E,books of the State officers. The
statement was made that sufficient
evidence had already been found to
warrant this action.
It remains therefore to see if the
charges freely made during the CAM
paign and practically unanswered
can be proved.
The Republican Steering Com
mittee of the Legislature have been
chosen, consisting of ofSenators Heath,
Crum and Smith, and Representa-
tives, Jenkins, Moore of Fremont,
Lowell and Werner. It is under
stood that this committee is at work
On an apportionment bill and it can
be stated, from personal interviews
with Republican members of both
houses Of the Legislature, that there
is unanimous desire to make an
absolutely fair apportionment based
upon the actual vote of the State.
Ex-Governor Schofeld of Wis
consin is here. Gov Schofeld is
largely interested in mines and
timber lands in this State and has
large holdings on the Clearwater
River. He makes the statement
that forty million feet Of lumber are
annually consumed in this portion
of Idaho and it is understood that
he is at the head of a movement to
acquire timber lands on the Boise
river and to put up extensive mills
at Boise in order to supply this de-
mand.
Inquiry as to the Status Of Irriga-
tion matters shows that the Irriga-
ton Committees are at work on
the amendments to the District Jaw
which they hope to have perfected
next week.

THE SPEECH
Of President Roosevelt at Wash

GRAND WORK OF Y. M. c. A.
Distinguished Persons Present-5O
AGniversary-COmmOn-
sense Talk.

Washington, Jan. 1o.-President
Roosevelt was the guest of honor
tonight at the banquet commemor,
ative of the fftieth anniversary OF
the Washington Young Mems
Christian association and the Inter
national Committee of North Amer
lea. Over 800 guests were invited.
Among those present were Justices
Harlan and Brewer; Secretary Root,
Senators Depew and Perkins,
George Foster Peabody, Secretary
Shaw, Admiral Dewey, Generals
Corbin and Young, Secretary Cor
te1you, Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Darling, General o. O. How
ard, Bishop Satterlee and Repre-
sentative Cannon, Helen Gould and
Mrs. McAlpin, president Of the
Woman's Auxiliary of the Y. M.
c. A., was conspicuous among those
Of the balcony. President Roose-
welt was greeted with loud applause
as he rose 10 address those at the
banquet. He said:
Mr., Chairman and Gentlemen
1t is no accident that we should
meet here to celebrate a record of
fifty years. That period covers the
halt century which has seen the
gigantic industrial change of the
world, a revolution, socially and
industrially, such as was hardly
seen within the preceding five cen
turles. Life during that half CEN
tury has been carried on at higher
pressure than ever before. That
means, of course, that all the forces
have been raised to a higher degree
of power, the forces of evil, and
also the forces of good. If it had
not been for the work of such Of
ganizations as this the immense
material progress Of the world dur
ing the past half century would
have been in progress that would
have told of i'll to the nations, not
for good.
And we can say with truth that
we are better OF and not worse off
than we were. We see ali around
us people who say: "Oh, things
will come out all right" So they
will, but they will come out all
right, not because there are those
who are content to say that they
will come out all right, but because
there are a sufficient number of
earnest men with the root of right
eousness in them who are bound to
see that they come out all right.
A hundred years ago there was no
such need for the Young Men S
Christian association and other
movements of this kind. Lite was
simple. The temptation would
come surely to every man, but it
would nos come SO frequently and
in so intense a form. As the forces
of evil manifested themselves in
stronger and stronger form they
had to be met, if they were to be
successfully grappled with, by or
ganized effort, and The successful
effort to combat the forces of evi.
had to take just such shape as has
been given to the growth of the
Young Mems Christian associa-
tions. 1t had to take the shape OF
combining decency and efficiency.
There have been philanthropic
movements, led and supported by
most excellent PEOPLE which, never
theless, have produced results alto

An Economical Man.

A commercial traveller tells of a man
who was riding on train and pretend
ed to become i'll after eating a sand
witch. The man opened his grip and
took out q hot water bag. "Ie got a
sympathetic porter" the commercial
man continues, ito fill the water bag
with boiling water and then he opened
up his lunch basket, took out piece or
fried steak and warmed it up on the
water bag. You talk about your light
housekeeping. Then, after he had
warmed the steak, he cut it all up with
q pair of scissors and fed it to himself
with n pair of sugar tOngs, because he
would not take a chance with fork
going around q curve. But his finish
was a limit. After he had eaten the
steak he unscrewed the stopper of the
water bag and poured himself out a
cup Of hot coffee. He had the grounds
in the bag all the time"

TOLD IN A DREAM.
The Message That Dying Girl Com
yeyed to Her Brother.

Here is an interesting, If somewhat
Creepy" story which reaches us from
a correspondent upon whose good faith
we can rely: \ certain young lady,
whom we will call Mary A, was re-
covering from illness. The doctor had
declared her to be out of danger, and
her friends and relatives were rejoic-
ing in the fact. Nevertheless Miss A,
receiving 4 visit one day FROM sister,
Eravely assured her that she was going
to die. The sister poOhpooned the idea
and treated it as an invalid's fancy.
Miss A., however, with the utmost
calmness, repeated her statement. She
was certain that she would die that
night and begged her sister to fetch her
parents and other relatives to say good
by. Thinking to humor her, the sister
complied. One person was absent from
this strange family gathering-a broth
er, who was at sea and was expected
home in q week or two. But it does
not matter" Miss A. quietly observed.
IT saw him last night in dream and
said goodby to him in his cabin" Be
fore the sun rose again Miss AS pre-
diction had come true; she was dead.
That, however, is not the strangest
part of this weird story. When in due
time the sailor brother reached port he
was met by his other sister who be-
gan to tell him the sad news. "Ah,"
he interrupted, you need not tell me!
Mary is dead. 1 knew it, for she came
to me one night in my dreams and told
me she was going to die and wanted to
say goodby." On comparing dates 1t
was found that 1.-THE dreams were
dreamed on the selfsame night.-Lon-
don News
