TRAVEL STOPPED
Burned-Out Controller Caus-
ed Tieup on Lake Car
Line,

1t was nearly supper time and as a
CA car sailed swiftly on the passen-
gers were thinking how soon they
would be able to satisfy their appe-
tites, whetteh by the breezes and ex-
citement of the Cleveland-B Boston base
ball game at Meyers lake Sunday even
ing. False hopes they were, for the
controller in one of the large cars
became stubborn and burned out,
causing a delay of about 20 minutes.
The line of cars blockaded on the road
to the lake resembled parade of
Princeton rooters, orange and black
predon!inating. Finally the disabled
car was towed in to the barns and the
passengers got their suppers, late but
better than never.

In the perfume case of Walter Pratt
|et al, against Thomas d. Cross, the
Minerva druggist, the jury returned
a verdict for Pratt for 1925 and in
terest, which was about the full
amount sued for. The way the odor
OF the perfume hung about the court
house 1t is evident that the jury con-
cluded that the perfume was not only
good but lasting in its effects The
defendant had refused to pay for. the
goods upon the ground that they were
not of good quality. It was shown
that after Cross had notified the COM
goods he continued to expose
goods that he continued to expose
them for sale and made sales of some
portions of them. The verdict was
returned late Thursday afternoon. At
|torneys Craine and Snyder represent
ed the plaintiff and Sterling and Brau-
cher the defendant.

"A Gamblers Daughter"

"a Gamblers Daughter" was
the attraction at the new opera
house Monday night. The piece
was one of the most popular and
sensational m melodramas that hes
been put on in Shoshone for some
time. 1t was an exciting pro-
duction and one calculated to work
upon the emotions of the spectators
The opera house was filled with a
most appreciative audience who
were well pleased with the pro-
duction. The very funny part of
it all was the audience seemed to
think the play was over and lett
the hall before the last act which is
Of course the climax.

JUSTICE ADAMS COURT.
Waigamot and Jones Get Sixty Days
Each for Stealing Coal.

Sheriff .Swope and Deputy Brown
entered complaints in Justice
Adams court on the morning o.
February 10th, charging Carm
Walgamot and Fred Jones with
stealing coal from the 0. S. L.
railroad company's cars. The
gentlemen when arraigned entered
a plea of not guilty and were re-
turned to Jail to await further
action, but before leaving the court
room informed the court that they
demanded a jury trial, and papers
were gotten out for summoning a
jury, but before this could be done
the defendants sent word to the
court that they had relented and
wished to change their plea from
not guilty to guilty and they were
once more arraigned and entered
a plea of guilty and were given
sixty days each in the county Jail.
The two above named gentlemen
were arrested some time ago for
stealing turkeys and were tried
before a jury and Walgamot was
found guilty and sentanced to !
thirty days in Jail, but J ones was
released. From the appearance of
things the gentlemen Jones and
Walgamot when their present terms
are rved will be called upon to
answer to charge OF grand larceny
as in order to get all the coal the
railroad company. had they stole
;wo teams from Metals barn to-
yether with the harness and sleds
With which. to haul the coal Their
entence was light compared to the ,
rhine they committed and the
lumber of times they have been t
'efore the court on similar charges.

THE EIGHT HOUR LAW
Republicans Not Opposed
to Granting 1t.
ACTION Is DEFERRED
B.lls Were all Based on Authority
That 1t was Supposed had been
Granted by an Amendment.

BOISE, Idaho, Feb. Is, 1903
There has been a great deal O
comment about the eight hour bills
now pending before the legislature
There are three of them, two by
democrats, and one by republi-
can, Cation, of Ada. Senator
BaIiatine, OF Blaine and Represen-
tative Moore, of Idaho, are the
fathers of the other two. They
are practically the same, all de-
signed to give the man who works
in underground mines an eight
hour day. The republican leaders
have objected to consideration of
measures, not because they were
opposed to granting an eight hour
day to any class of workmen in
the state; or any other concessions,
but because, in the opinion OF
many the acts would be ulconsti-
tntional if passed. As matter of
precaution, and in order that the
democratic plan Of cumbering the
statutes with unconstitutional
dead laws, they urge that action
be deferred until the constitutional
points involved could be looked
INTO This is very interesting
question. The pending bills are
all based on authority that it had
been supposed was granted by
consti utional amendment adopted /
at the last session 1t was found.
however, that the constitutional
provisions covering the publication
OF the proposed amendment in
various papers over the state had
not beea complied with. The
requirement is for six weeks publ
cation, whereas they are published
for various periods, from three to
five weeks. That vitiates the
in the minds of the '
best authorities here. That being {
the case no law could be enacted {
under the amendment that would l
stand the test of the courts. The |
republican leaders of the legislature
had action on all the eight hour
bills delayed temporarily until
these matters could all be looked 7
into by competent authority. Then
The democrats thought they had
discovered something to make b
thunder out of, and pro- v
'eeded to proclaim the republican OF
,arty antagonistic to the laboring d
men. Representative Jenkins, the F
'epublican leader on the floor,
aking their statements as a text af
aid: "The republican party has at
'cen, is now AMI always will be pe
he best friend of the laboring men W. W
o it they owe their present pros ca
Gritty. They know it, and no tn
platitudes nor distor- M
on of the facts will ever divert Al
hem from their true friend. So r,' r'
II as this eight hour bill is con-
erned, | desire now to go on an
scord publicly as saying that l no
u in favor of an eight hour law for
I'D will work for and vote for one ~ b

onal measure. But ] am opposed
