STEERING COMMITTEE,

1t is rumored about the capital
that State Chairman Gooding is
anxious to organize a Steering
Committee OF both Houses. His
effort to organize a Senate Steering
Committee does not appear TO have
been successful; how he will sue
coed in the House has not yet been
demonstrated. Steering Committees
are very useful when properly Or
gained and surrounded by whole
some influences, but they NAV
become very dangerous under i'm
proper conditions. There is one
feature of the Chairman's PROPOSE

ership of Judge Hepburn. There
are among us down here thousands
of good citizens who have known
ami admired and rejniced in him
for years and years. He is big
enough, and we refer to his intel
Iectuality, to be representative Of
the whole State, and so he will be
and always has been. We may go
farther and say in all truthfulness
thar Judge Hepburn has always
encountered more bitterness, more
opposition, a hundred fold, in North
Idaho than ever he did in South
Idaho. 1t was we who discovered
him, not Shoshone county. That
county would have driven out long
ago if it could. OF course, we dis
covered Borah, too, and we like
him frstrate. Some day we are
going to send him down to Wash
ington aud he will occupy a seat
just across the aisle from Senator
Hepburn of Idaho, and that will
make about as strong a team as
ever worked in the venerable Senate
Chamber. Don't you think so?

ton which is not likely to meet with
public approval, that is. the en-
p1oyment of a Steering Committee
Attorney at the expense of the
State. THE TRIBUNE does not
wish to be severe in its criticism of
this feature but we think it is de-
serving of emphatic condemnation
and hope The legislature will give
it no countenance whatever.

1t is rumored that there is a
growing sentiment in the legislature
favorable to pushing the work Of
the session so rapidly that adjourn
ment can be had at the expiration
OF 40 days. That sentiment ought
to grow and fructify into full and
glorious fruition.

"A bill has been introduced in the

Will get most of its territory from

There will, however, be a long,

can be organized.

NOT A BIT OF 1T.

Says the Montpelier Examiner:
Jas. H. Hawley got the solid
Democratic legislative support for
United States senator. While it
didn't elect him, still it shows what
might have happened, if the legis1a-
ture had been democratic on Joint
ballot" Don't you think it.

Democratic papers are still pro-
duclng evidence to prove that Sen
ator Hepburn is not resident of
Idaho. At this stage of affairs it
does not make any difference
whether Hepburn ever resided in
Idaho or not. On the fourth of
March he will be accredited to Ida
no by the National legislature and,
whether he likes it or not, will be a
legal resident of this State tor the
ensuing six years. We imagine
though that this will not, in the
least, distress Judge Hepburn.

Grover Cleveland is the only
Democratic statesman who has ever
enjoyed the distinction of being
salnted before death. Its the habit
OF Democracy to condemn all its
great men who have once served the
party, and permit them to remain
under condemnation until about
twenty-five years after death when
the apotheosis takes place. This
reflection is provoked by the tact
that the Democracy of the east and
south are now looking to Cleveland
tor leadership, and it is more than
probable that he will be their next
candidate for the presidency, if he
can be induced to accept the empty
honor.

Experts on Insanity.

A Paris journalist, DESTROYS OF
learning how lunatics were treated
cot himself up in fantastic cos
i tune and accosted gendarme in
the street with an angry demand
why he did not salute the Emperor
Napoleon |. when he met him. The
gendarme promptly arrested the
Journalist and removed him TO the
station, when in due course he was
transferred to an asylum as patient
suffering from dangerous illusions.
After learning thoroughly the
system OF treatment to which luna
tics are subjected, the journalist
desired to leave the asylum and give
his paper and the public the benefit
of his experience. He, therefore,
requested to be brought before the
medical board of examiners, to
whom he explained the situation,
but was Mortified when the doctors
gravely shook their heads and re-
ported that they considered he was
now become really dangerously
mad. He was, therefore, kept under
the closest watch and restraint, and
nearly made himself mad with anx-
iety before he induced one of the
nurses to convey to his paper the
news of his plight.
But even then his troubles were
not over, for the doctors refused to
accept the explanation offered, and
have all certified that the man is a
dangerous lunatic. A special CON-
mission has now been appointed to
investigate his case.---Exchange.

An txtravagant Swear-Off.

A man in Mascotah, Kansas, who
cheWed 20 cents worth of plug to-
bacco a week decided to try a to-
bacco cure. The Record of that
place informs US that at the end of
two weeks he had eaten 81. 50 worth
OF cure, and for the next two weeks
used 10 cents worth of chewing
gum, S cents worth of CANDY, 2
cents worth of peanuts and s cents
worth Of cough drops a day. Dur
ing these two weeks he also con-
sumed two large rubber erasers, ate
the rubber tips from fourteen lead
pencils, chewed up a dozen pen
holders and browsed off his NOUS
tache as high as he could reach.
He is now chewing tobacco in the

the Philippines, was made public yes
,terday. Father Vattmann, with the
knowledge and consent of the war de-
partment, and under the direction OF
the church authorities, made an inves-
tigation of Catholic interests in the
archipelago. He is unsparipg in his
praise of Governor Taft and the other
members of the Philippine commission
for their honesty and impartiality in
religious affairs. He comments on the
dangerous influence of Aglipay, the
insurgent priest, and expressed the be.

stead of Monsignor Guidi been ap-
pointed TO Manila, the breach would

Vattmann regards the present feeling
toward the friars as most unfortunate,
~ my uIuu, says fdtuSr NalI-
mann's report, sit is deplorable that
certain of our Catholic papers persist
in misrepresenting Governor Taft and
his administration. He is clean and
honest man, broad minded and liberal,
with no faint of bigotry in his compo-
isition. His attitude towards the
church and Catholic interests in gen.
eral is simply admirable. You may
be certain he thoroughly understands
the character and selfish designs OF
the renegade Aglipay, and that he has

members are possessed of the right
spirit and we Catholics need fear no

the friar question, he says:
Most unfortunate is it that there
is such deep feeling against the
friars; indeed, they are really hated.
They are looked upon as part and par

gime, and it is this feeling that has

COMMISSION KNOCKED OUT.
Michigan Railway Tax Beard Has
Only Advisory Power.

La-silg. Mich, May 2-The su.
preiAe court has knocked out the
state board Of assessors in fixing the
average rate of taxation of the state
in assessing railroad property. The
court holds the power of the state
assessors in this connection is purely
ministerial, and that they had no au.
thority to increase the value of
property in the theory that the local
assessors had failed to assess at it's
full cash value. as provided by law.
The board is ordered to reconvene
and determine the average rate from
the assessments of local assessors.
This will materially increase the
average rate and will increase by
about 100000 the aggregate taxes
levied against the railroad com.
panies.

Stuart Robson, who died of heart
trouble in New York Wednesday,
ranked as one of the leading comedi-
ans of the American stage. He was
born in Baltimore March 4, 1886. HIS
first appearance on the stage was at
the Baltimore museum on Jan. 5, 1852
The play was Uncle Toms Cabin, and
Robson, then 16 years old, had a minor
part. He had bad case of stage
fright that nearly ended his career on
the night it began. Mr.. Robson's first
pronounced success was as Capt
Crosstree in the burlesque, Black Eyed
Susan, in which he first appeared in
$50. In 1877, in Chicago, Stuart Rob-
son and William H. Crane made their
famous starring partnership and
played in revivals of A Comedy of Err
rors, Merry Wives of Windsor, and
other Shakespearean comedies, finally
taking up The Henrietta, which be-
came an extraordinary success. and
made profits Of $1,000,000. The Rob-
son-Crane partnership lasted until
1889, when it was dissolved in Chica-
go. Mr.. Robson was married in 1894
to May Walden. He had a summer
home at Highlands, N. j., where two
years ago his entire company were his
guests during the summer rehearsals
of the revival of The Henrietta The
rehearsals were held in a natural am
phitheater back of the Robson house
in the morning, the afternoons being
spent by the company in roaming,
yachting or bathing in the surf Mr..
Robson was noted among theatrical
people for his kindness and considera-
ton to the members CT his company.
Before going or the stage young Rob-
son was for several years a page in
the United States senate. Concerning
this period of his life the eminent act

Paris, May liking Edward arrived
yesterday afternoon and was accorded
a hearty reception by republican
France, His majesty was welcomed at
the Dauphine railroad station by the
president and the chief officer of the
staff, and his drive through the ave
nues, the Bots Boulougne and Champs
Elysees presented a succession of
brilliant spectacles. Everywhere the
populace gave the king an enthusiast
tic greeting, the demonstration at
Place de L'Etoele and Place de la
: Concorde becoming tumultuous. King
Edward showed the keenest apprecia-
ton of the French good will. Only
scattered shouts OF "Fashoda" and
Kruger were heard. and they were
lost in the tremendous volume of de-
monstrative approval
AS the train entered the station the
trumpets sounded a royal salute and
the band played God Save the King.
AS King Edward descended from his
/ car and advanced slowly and alone,
smiling and saluting, and his breast
adorned with various insignias, includ-
ing the cross OF the legion of honor,
President Loubet stepped forward and
grasped the kings hand. The meet
ing between the sovereign and the
president was almost demonstrative
M. Loubet welcomed the king to
France and the king expressed his
thanks for the splendid manifestation
in his honor. King Edward and the
members Of his party were escorted by
a regiment of cuirassiers and driven
to the British embassy.
The avenues were lined with solid
ranks of dragons, cuirassiers. horse
artillery, field batteries and infantry.
Behind this martial wall the people
Were banked and all the trees, win
dows and balconies and house tops
crowded with spectators. 1t is esti-
mated there were half million people
gathered along the line. At the Arc
/ de Triomphe the scene was majestic
long, shimmering lines Of soldiers,
and forest Of waving banners, with
| blazing bugles and rolling drums and
the succeeding bands taking up God
Save the King.
The president and the king we're
continuously acclaimed as they passed
through the lines of soldiery and when
the cortege reached the Place de la
Concorde, a battery of great guns
crashed forth the royal salute.
King Edward alighted at the Brit
ish embassy, above which the royal
standard of Great Britain was raised.
The Rue du Faubourg st. Honore was
densely packed and the crowds eontin-
uously acclaimed his majesty.
After a brief rest at the embassy,
King Edward proceeded, with the es-
cort of cuirassiers, to the Elysee pal
ace, where he was received by Presi-
dent Loubet. Last night Paris pre-
scented fairy-like spectacle.
