migration has been expanding and
changing it will not be many years be-
fore there will be more natives of Italy
in the United States than German-b born
residents. The Slavs of the Austro-
Hungarian empire will soon rival the
Germans in numbers counting only
persons of foreign nativity. OF course,
the German element, including the
American born descendants of German
parents, will be bigger than the Slavic
for generation, at least, if not for
ever. Jealousy and national pride will
surely impel other nationalities to de-
mand all that Germans are given in
the public schools, or else the elimina-
ton of all special favors or considera-
ton for the German element in the
country. With the Germans by birth
and parentage, becoming constantly a
smaller fraction of the population, not
withstanding their absolute increase,
and with German immigration small
and not likely to grow much larger, the
ultimate result of these conditions is
not hard to foresee. 1t is only ques-
zion of time.

NEWSPAPER CURRENT COMMENT
TOPICS OF MOMENT
FROM MANY SOURCES

Is duck or a goose or quail or
any other bird an animal in the con-
temptation of the Idaho fish and game
law? That, in substance. is ques-
ton Attorney General Bagley has been
asked to give an official opinion on.
Very recently, in passing on phase
of the pure food law. the attorney gem
eral. with perfect eauanamity. held
that a salmon was not a four year old
steer, so it is readily assumed he will
tackle the question here propounded
imperturably.
If bird is not an animal I'm the pur-
view of the enactment of the last leg
islature, then IL may be sold on the
market. The law generally distin-
guishes between birds, fish and ami
mails, using the latter in connection
with the larger game. such as deer; but
the section prohibiting the sale of fish
and game makes no such distinction.

CONGRESS WILL OPEN MONDAY
IN SPECIAL SESSION ON CUBA
The Reciprocity Treaty Will Come Up for
Ratification and Little Else Is
Expected to Be Done

treaty by an almost unanimous vote
may be expected to take up and dis
pose of the matter without much de-
bate
Talks with leading republican sena-
tors point to a general understanding
that no financial legislation will be at
tempted at the extra session. During
the time the house is considering the
reciprocity matter the senate will have
plenty of business to occupy it's atten-
, ton. The executive business alone is
of vast volume. for the appointments
made during the recess number thou
sands These will have to be reported
to the senate for it's advice and con-
sent, and their consideration will keep
the senators busy the firstt en- days of
the session. The financial bill will be
considered by members of the finance
committee, and cloak room conferences
may be expected among leading sena
tors on both sides, but no bill will be
formulated until after the Christmas
holidays.
Monday will be devoted to the read
ing of the presidents message. The
general expectation is that the message
will be brief and will deal only with
Cuban reciprocity and possibly with
financial legislation. In his message it
is expected that the president will di
rect the attention of congress to the
moral obligations affecting Cuba and
point out the duty of the house to in
dorse the action of the senate in pass
ing a Cuban reciprocity treaty.
If the subject of financial legislation
is touched upon it is believed that
definite recommendations will be made
by the presidentalong the lines of the
speech delivered in Chicago some time
ago by Secretary Shaw. The differences
of opinion entertained by the admin
istration and by leading republican
members of congress on the question OF
financial legislation renders it hopeless
to expect that anything along that line
can be accomplished in the short time
which the extra session has before it
and in view of these facts it is alto
gether probable that the matter will be
left out of the presidents message en-
tirely, though he had previously deter
mined to give it especial prominence.

been dispensed with. The new tunnel
is also developing a large amount of
water which will afford an abundance
for the mill and no trouble is antici-

The pipe and all other material for

Upon their arrival it will only take a

new STEAMER
FOR UPPER SNAKE
Boise Capitalists Will Build a
Boat to Operate at
GIenns Ferry

f. w. Johnson has returned from
Portland. With George NJ Parsons
and j. f. Lane he went down there 70
see about the construction of a boat to
ply on the Snake between Glenn's
Ferry and the Bruneau ferry, says the
Boise Statesman. this service having
been planned in connection with the
great Bruneau irrigation project in
which they are interested.
In Portland they secured all possible
data on the subject and arranged to
have plans and specifications for boat
prepared. The boat will be IS feet in
length and II feet beam, the deck be-
ing IA feet wide. In connection with it
there will be two barges, each having
a capacity of so tons, these to be towed
The boat will draw IL to Is inches of
water light and two feet when fully
loaded. 1t will be equipped with twin
screw propellers driven by double ma
rine gasoline engines. The latter will
have an indicated capacity of 20-horse
power each but will actually generate
46-horse power. The boat will carry %
tons of freight and 40 passengers. 1t
viii be finished in the best style and
will be d model river craft. A supply
of 12o gallons of gasoline will be car
ried.
The craft will have a speed of Is
knots an hour and win make the run
of % miles very quickly.
After arranging the general features
of the plans Mr.. Johnson and his as
sociates came home to await detailed
specifications with estimate of cost.
The intention is to have work on the
boat and barges started at once the
expectation being that the boat will be
in commission in 80 days. 1t will cost
in the neighborhood of $1,000.
This boat and the barges are expect
ed to carry all the freight for the
Bruneau country and much that goes
into Nevada. That business has been
developed rapidly in recent years, and
when the irrigation enterprise shall
have been put through it will be greatly
increased.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. THE
ratification of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty is all that is included in the
present program of the extraordinary
session of congress, which VIII open
next Monday. 1t was originally desired
by the administration to take up finan-
cial legislation at the special session
but the idea has now been abandoned
and unless all signs fail comparatively
little attempt will be made to accom-
plish anything of importance other
than the ratification of the Cuban
treaty.
The reciprocity treaty has been rati-
fed by the Cuban congress, and only
lacks necessary legislation by the
United States congress to become eff
fective. The initiative for this rests
with the house of representatives. The
fact that several weeks are required for
the organization of that body has ex
cited apprehension in some quarters
that there will be considerable delay in
getting the reciprocity joint resolution
in shape, and that action may be pre-
vented at the called session. In circles
better informed, however there exists
no apprehension on this account, for
while the speaker is not likely to have
all the committees ready for announce
ment before December, he undoubtedly
will announce the committee on ways
and means and the committee on ac-
counts and mileage some time during
the coming week.
While there is likely to be vigorous
demand from the democrats for liberal
debate, it is expected limit will be
fixed when the resolution is reported,
and that a time also will be fixed for
a final vote. With regard to the ques-
ton directly involved. it is not believed
there will be any great differences in
the house, but the democrats may at
tempt to make capital for the next
presidential election by debating the
tariff and offering amendments that
will not be entertained by the presid-
ing officer. However, there is reason
for the belief that the house will be
able to send the resolution to the SEN
ate before November 20. The latter
body, having ratified the reciprocity

BALTIMORE RESULT DOUBTFUL.
Choice for Mayor Will Not Be Ascertain
ed Until Today.

Baltimore, Md, May 5.-The result OF
today's municipal election in this city as to
the mayoralty candidates is in doubt and
will not be officially ascertained until to-
morrow. Of the 308 precincts in the city
3O3 have been counted and they give a
plurality Of 9S2 for Robert M. McLane,
Democratic candidate, over Frank W.
Wachter, Republican. In the other five
precincts, owing to disputes between the
election Judges, the ballot boxes have been
locked up by the police for the night and
will not be opened until tomorrow. The
actual result will therefore be in doubt
until these votes are counted, and re-
count will probably be ordered.
George r. Heffner, Republican, has
been elected City Comptroller, and f.
Clay Timanus, Republican, is elected presi'
dent of the Second Branch of the City
Council. The Republicans will have a
majority in the Second Branch of the City
Council and the Democrats majority In
the First Branch.
At the municipal election in 1899 the
Democrats carried the city by $500.

that this involves no retreat on the part OF

nothing but inquiries. and, the Chinese

Death of Colonel A. J. May.

On Sunday night, May Srd, at ll:2'
O'Clock, Colonel Andrew Jackson May diet
at his residence in this town, after belnI
in for several months. He was not only
one of the oldest but, perhaps, the mos
prominent citizen of the place
Colonel May was born at Prestonsourg'
Floyd county, Kentucky, January 2oth
1929. dis parents were Samuel and
Catherine May, and his ancestors were
among the first to settle in the Sandy
Valley of Kentucky.
In lS4S he moved with his parents TO
Missouri From that State he went across
the plains to California. He afterwards
returned to Kentucky, and in 1904 was
licensed to practice law in that State. In
1855 he was married to Miss Matilda Da'
wilson. At the outbreak of the Civil war
he enlisted in the Confederate service and
was made Colonel of the Fifth Kentucky
Infantry. He was afterwards made Col
onel Of the Tenth Kentucky Cavalry which
he commanded until few months prior
to the surrender of Lee, when he was COM
neled To 90 lome on sick leave OF
absence. In 1862 he located his family at
Lebanon, Va, where they renamed a
wear. and then moved to Tazewell in the
Fall of 1868. At the close of the war he
began the practice Of law at this place.
The bar here was then very strong one,
composed of such men as Stras, Cecil'
Sheffev and others, By great Industry
and diligent application to LIS profession
he soon entered upon lucrative practice
which he continued to hold until age and
failing health forced him to remain from
his office. He made great deal of money
by his profession and judiClous invest
ments, but being a man of great hberalIty
did not acquire a large fortune. A large
share of his property had been disposed OF
bv glft to his sons and daughter and other
members of his family prior to bis last Ill
ness. By his first marriage he has two
surviving sons, Messrs. s. D. and A. }.
Nav, and one daughter, Mrs. ID. W.
Steele.
On the 18th Of June, 1902, he was mar
ried to Miss Nellie B. Davidson, who sur
wives him, as does son, a few days old, the
fruit of that union The young life came
in on the lst day of May, the old one went
ont the 3rd of May. The circumstances
surrounding this birth and death were OF
the most pathetic nature.
The deceased was man OF energet'C
and enterprisiDg character and OF splendid
courage. He was a gallant and faithful
soldier, a steunch and earnest friend to
those whom he liked, chivalrous foe and
useful citizen. He died a member OF the
NJ. +. Church, South, and though not a
member of that church until recently, he
having withdrawn from its membership
some ten wears ago, he was always most
liberal contributor to the church and a
firm friend of its ministers.
On Tuesday, the 9Th inst, funeral SER
vices we're held in the Methodist church,
conducted by the pastor, Rev. r. A. Kelly,
and assisted by Revs. r. K. Sutherland
and G. R. Brown. The large church was
filed with the relatives and friends of the
deceased, many persons who had been the
bepefciaries of his kindness and bounty
being present to show their regard for the
memory of their generous friend. The
funeral address of Rev, R. A. Kelly was a
