claim to the amount of $25, 609 86.
This ruling was certified to Judge
Beatty.
Judge Beatty stated that the ref
cree is sustained by rulings OF some
of the courts but that his judgment
is not convinced that the law con-
templates such hardship against an
innocent creditor. He holds that
$769 II is the only preference and
that the bank shall be allowed to
prove its claim of $4730. 80 on pay
ment of the 1863. II to the trustee.
Judge Beatty further directs that
If there are other creditors who re.
ceived like preferences or payments,
and who have since proven their
balances of debts, they should be
expunged unless they surrender not
only such preferences, but also any
dividends that may have been paid
them.

A. G. Butterfeld of this city has
purchased the flock of Merino sheep
of the. late L f. Shattuck of Stan
berry, Mo-, and by sheepmen it is
claimed this purchase gives him the
finest flock of sheep of that kind in
the United States. In speaking of
this purchase, the American Sheep
Breeder of Chicago, says:
''Mr. Butterfield had TOR long
time coveted the ownership of this
famous flock, which had for many
years been bred up with distinguished
ability and success by the greatest of
American Merino breeders, and
when the failing health of the
younger Shattuck lmpelled their
final dispersement, the fortunate
buyer was promptly on the ground
with the purchase money, and car
ried home to the Butterfield sheep
ranches at Weiser q collection OF
Merinos that any fine wool sheep
man in the world might envy him
The elder Shattuck long ago gave
world wide fame to this flock by
breeding for size, symmetry of form
density of fleece, covering ant
length of staple, nowhere else at
tanned in his time, and his consum
mate skill and achievements alon|
these lines found ready recognition
in the breeding world, whose Merin
connoisseurs were eager purchaser

THE SNAKE RIVER BRIDGE
Action In the Lower Householder Legislature
News.

Senate bill No. 1, by Smith of
Washington coul ty, providing an ap-
preparation for a bridge across Snake
river at Weiser, was read for the
first time in the house and Jenkins
moved that the bill be indefinitely
postponed.
Representatives Smith and Gal
loway objected to such summary
action. The senate had seen fit to
pass the bill and it should at least be
considered by the house.
jenkins asked how much the state
of Oregon had offered to contribute
towards the building of the bridge.
Smith said Oregon had made no
contribution.
jenkins withdrew his motion, out
of courtesy to the Washington mem
bers, as he said, and allowed the
measure to take its place on the
calendar.
The following bills were introduced
out of order by unanimous consent:
By Galloway-To create a state
board of education and charities
Mathewson-M Making appropria-
ton for a wagon road in Idaho and
Lemhi counties.
Wilis-Requiring the placing of
screen at the place of diversion OF
water from streams, for the protec
ton of fish
Eichelberger-Authorizing the or
ganlzation of mutual cooperative
insurance companies.
Smith of Washington-To regulate
the practice of pharmacy.
Eichelberger-Relating to revenue
from the taxation of mines.
Eicbelberger-Regulating the ad
;, mission of pupils into the publ
schools of Idaho.
, Brunzel-For the protection of tn
v lives of employees of electric ligh
:, and power companies.
Price-Providing for condemna
ton of right Of way for logging pul
5 poses and for conveying timbe
5 products.

lief of firemen and for the encourage

WHAT IS PAIN BALM?

Chamberlain's Pain Balm is nni-
ment, and while adapted to al the or
binary uses of liniment. las qualities
which distinguish it from other rene
dies of this class. Pain Balm is espe-
ciaily beneficial for rheumatism. Thou

this remedy has effected cure when
the sufferer had previously tried the
best medical service without securing
relief. Pain Balm is positively guaran-
teed to give relief in the most severe
cases of chronic or acute rheumatism
Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and
scaIds in less time than any other treat
ment. 1t is "antiseptic." that is, it
prevents putrefaction, and by so doing
generally prevents an unsightly scar
remaining after the injury is healed.

OF property encumbered to an unknown
extent, leaving the Government to per-
feet the title and obtain possession as
best it may. The provision of Section
4. that the warrants for the purchase
of the water from the owners thereof
shall be first charge on the Treasury
after the payment of current expenses,
is against public policy as denoting
bad faith toward bond holders. and
tending to injure the credit of the
Territory.

ly Section 8, which very evidently inn
plies that the Government is not to
acquire 'the whole of the said

requires the owners after having re-

ENGINEER BADLY
HURT ON SIBERIA

Chief Engineer Ferguson of the Pa
cific Mail steamship Siberia was
seriously injured while that vessel was
off Kobe on June 14th. Private advices
received on the Picking yesterday, say
that while the engineer was on his
on the upper deck he failed to notice
that the companion way steps had been
moved to permit the discharge of cargo,
and he stepped into the space, falling
shoulders struck the deck below with
a dreadful thud and he was uncon-
scous when picked up. He was bleed
ing at the nose and mouth, and also
from deep cash in the forehead His
right wrist was broken into splinters
and several ribs are also supposed to
have been broken. Captain Smith i'm
mediately called upon the captain of
the Russian warship laying near for
aid, and the surgeon from that YES
sci cared for the engineer. He was
later removed to the hospital on shore.
though his recovery is matter of some
doubt, as Ferguson is man weighing
from 22O to 230 pounds, and is also quite
elderly. The last reports from the hos
ptal We're to the effect that internal
bleeding had stopped and the symp-
toms were better.
What makes the accident particular
ly sad is the fact that Mr.. Ferguson
had been ashore at Yokohama buying
wedding presents for his daughter who
is to be married at Newport News in
the autumn and which ceremony he ex-
pected to attend. The ship was thrown
in deep gloom over the sad affair.
Mr.. Ferguson is well known to TO-
noulu people, having been for many
years chief engineer of the China.

course which this Court should pur-
sue in the conservation of it's dignity
would be Impairment; but If permit
ted to speak entirely from selfish
point of view. | join in the request of
the Attorney General for an mmedi-
ate investigation of the subject mat
ter of his report and the charges there
to annexed.
Speaking for myself, I am the repre-
sentative in a purely professional way
and as an officer of this court of large
interests; l have the trust and conf
dence of men of affairs, and, while not
assuming that the result of the hear
ing will be a disadvantage to me, but
treating the matter in a spirit of ar
gument, l suggest that If this affair
should be concluded to my detriment,
the gentlemen who have matters in my
hands should be given a speedy oppor-
tunity of seeking other counsel
The case Is not one in which the

leaden heel, but strikes with an iron
hand can have any application. 1t Is
rather case in which II the charges
be true, Justice should strike not only
with an iron hand but be fleet of foot.
I pray that the Court may allow me
to waive the issuance Of a citation and
to appear herein voluntarily and sub
init to the jurisdiction and judgment
of Your Honors, and that the hearing
may proceed without delay
The court set the case for Monday
morning.
