NATIONAL GUARD SQUABBLE

Some time prior to the election Of
the field officers Of the Idaho Nation
al Guard, Adjutant General Vlckers
suggested the names Of officers, for
candidates, whom he he'd reason to
believe, were qualified for the posi-.
tions. This action aroused Capt.
Kelly, Of the Blackfoot company, who
asserted that the adjutant general
had no right to suggest candidates.
He, himself, was ambitious for pro-
motion; but the adjutant general
accused him of inconpetency. Capt.
Kelly, now fully aroused, made
most Incorporate and virulent attack
upon his superior officer. The cleo
tion came. All the candidates reco-
mmended by Adjutant General Wick
ers, were elected. Capt. Kelly
resigned and now proposes to contest
the election on trumped up charges
Of irregularity In opening and count
ing the ballots. Elections of capt
aims take place in nine companies,
Sept. 10, to Gil the vacancies created
BY promotions and designations.

MAY REPEAL TIMBER
and STONE ACT.


Congressman French, during his
recent visit in Boise, made some in
teresting statements concerning the
proposed repeal Of the stone and tim
her act in the course Of an interview
on Idaho's land and timber holdings.
lie said:
"Probably no measure that will
come before the next session of con-
gress will be Of more interest TO the
people OF Idaho than this proposed
repeal of the stone and timber act.
or course one cannot tell now wheth-
er or not it NAV pass, but from what
am able tn learn OF the mem bcrs Of
congress in the east it seems more
than possible. / cannot, however,
believe that such action would mean
the best for our people and l am
opposed to its repeal.
I'VE are told that frauds are COM
mitted under 1T and for that reason
1t should be repealed, but l fully be-
lieve that while some Irregularities
may have occurred under every act by
which the settler has been granted
land, the irregularities under the
stone and timber act have not been
greater but even less than under the
provisions OF any other act, including
the homestead laws.
"If you repeal the stone and tim
Der act, the only avenues open to the
individual for the acquisition Of this
valuable land in question are under
the homestead laws aud by placing
scrip upon it. The scrip the individ-
ual does not own. It belongs, With
rare exception, to companies and
syndicates, and the homestead laws
are here impracticablc because much
Of the land is valuable alone for its
timber, or at present is SO inaccessi-
ble that the poor man who desires
the land, could hardy support him
self and family aud secure title by
complying with the requirements Of
the homestead law. This being so
the scrip owners could place their
scrip upon the most valuable unpat-
ented land within our state or the
northwest, with practically no oppo-
sition or competition. Scrip would
double in value and would mark the
price of the timber Of our forests.
'sOur laws should be for the public
good and the disposition OF the vast
areas OF our public domain should be
with the same end 10 view and not In
the interests Of the holders of scrip.
After xll, what is the origin Of scrip?
1t was intended to be simply means
for ready exchange OF land by the
government Cor the land Of these to
whom 1t had previously been granted.
land not OF different value but 0f the
same value. In some measure this Is
the working out Of the law, but 10
large measure II is not, and scrip that
was issued for land practically worth
less, has been placed upon the most
valuable land in the possession Of our
government. A wrong was done In
the first place when provision was
made TOR scrlp, and a greater wrong
is pending in the proposed taking
away Of the right Of the Individual
home seeker and the retention Of the
great advantage to the holder OF
scrip.

ACUINALDO'S CONVERSION,

AguinaidO seems to be thoroughly
converted from the error of his WAYS
10 opposing American methods and
administration in the Philippines.
Originally the joy and later the
hope Of the ''little Americans" he
enjoyed himself after his capti tiyity
better than he had ever done before
in bis life. and hated the worst way
to be released at the close OF the in
surrection, from the place he had
nominally been in Jail, and where he
had been treated and waited upon
like a prince.
He was actually afraid to 60 at
large, for fear some Of the relatives Of
the men he had assassinated would
kill him on sight.
4 But he survived all the imagined
perils; and came to consider that he
could reap more honor and gain more
consideration-and coin-by support
ing the government he had eudeavor-
ed to throw of, than 10 pursuing any
other course; so for a good while he
has been quietly supporting the
American rule.
He now. however, comes out openly
on that side, advises his countrymen
to adopt'the customs and methods Of
the Americans, to forsake gambling,
10 improve agriculture, and to attend
the public schools which the Ameri-
cans have established in the archipel-
ago. Tlibune.

action were more attributable to indif-

men than bad, but they are often SO
busy with other things that they neg
lect their political duties.

the fact that as a result of the labors of
those who have wrought before us

mitted suicide yesterday at noon by cut
ting his throat with long bladedpocket-
knife, severing the large blood vessels,
but not cutting the arteries. No cause is
given for the deed other than that he was
addicted to liquor and had been drinking
deavily for several days. He has been
haunted with the impression that a de-
tective was after him to testify in the
Loeffelmacher case, and the fear that he
might be made out to be connected with
the dynamiting and incendiary troubles

He spoke about it several times. He has
no relatives that he can locate. The
