TIE Up COMMISSION BILL.
House at Boise Refuses to Rush Railroad
Measure.

House at Boise Refuses to Rush Railroad
Measure.
Boise, Idaho, Feb. l3.-The rail.
road commission bill introduced in
the house by johnson, Of Ada, prov.
ed the bone Of contention at both the
morning and afternoon sessions.
The bill was first read twice by title
under a suspension Of the rules and
referred to the printing committee.
An effort to reconsider the vote by
which it was referred was unsuccess-
full, but just before final adjourn
neut another attempt was made to
recall the bill from the printing
committee and refer it to the com
mittee on railroads and corporations.
This motion prevailed after an
acrimonious debate by the narrow
margin Of p to 81.
As soon as the measure had been
introduced Johnson moved that the
measure be read twice by title and
printed at once II was late In the
session and the bill was lengthy, and
he wanted to get it printed for the
consideration Of the members without
going the usual course through its
appropriate committee. Representa-.
tive Wright moved its consideration,
ia order that it might 20 to the com
mittee on railroads, Of which he ia a
member. johnson opposed the
motion, declaring he did not want
the bill to go 10 the railroad com.
mittee, which had been holding au-
other measure Of his the three cent
fare bill for nearly a week. A
motion to reconsider was lost by a
decisive vote.
Mr.. Wright offered a motion dur
ing the afternoon that the measure
in question be taken to the committee
on railroads and corporations. After
a long debate this motion prevailed,
from which IL may never emerge.
The measure as presented provides
for the appointment Of a railway com
mission Of three members, to receive
a salary Of $500 each per aunum,
to be appointed bienniaIly by the
governor with the advice and consent
Of the senate, the commission to be
given power to FIX the rates for trans
portation Of freight either by rail
roads or express companies.

18th Of that month and got his
September salary In full. He did
not sign the October pay roll nor did
he receive any October salary. He
had received no money since Septem-
Der from II. Smith Woolley. The
last time he had seen his brother was
at Salt Lake on November 10, 1904.
The discrepancies in the state
ments are easily seen.
KENNETH's AROUSED MEMORY.
After H. Smith Woolley was mott
fed by the department through
Senator Hepburn of the case against
him, which was done the latter part
of January, he evidently COM
municated with his brother by tele-
graph, for on January 80, Kenneth
Woolley sent this wire from Logan;
Richard H. Taylor, U. S. Treas
ury-In the excitement incident to
your visit, l find l made statements
which are not correct.
(Signed)
KENNETH r. WOOILEY. A."
Following this second telegram
was sent from the same place to Tay-
lor indicating that Kenneth Woolley
had received later advices by mail.
This telegram reads;
81 received my salary check for
the months of September and October
and signed the pay roll for the same.
(Signed)
"KENNETH WOOLLEY. -"
The first Endorsement on the back
Of the October pay check is ken
meth R. Woolley, the second III.
Smith Woolley," and below this is
PAY to First National bank, Ogden,
Utah, j. r. Sheperd."
The stamp Of the Capital State
bank is also on the back of the check.
DIFFERENCES IN SIGNATURES.
The notable difference in the real
and forged signatures Of Kenneth
Woolley as evidenced by the August
and September pay rolls in the pos
session Of the treasury, are in the
tx" at the beginning Of Kenneth"
and the ~" at the end Of "'Woolley. ="
There is no record with the
director of the mint of any leave
granted to Kenneth Woolley, which
is contrary to regulations. The first
suspicion Of anything being wrong
in the Boise assay office arose in the
office Of the auditor for the treasury
where the clerk noticed the forged
signature on the October pay roll.

to attend the call Of the calendar to
care for their cases, he would cause
them hereafter to be stricken from
the calendar.
For several terms Judge Morgan
has done all In his power to clear the
court calendar and get cases tired.
This has been an uphill task. largely
owing to the lethargy Of the attorneys
representing the different litigants.
He Is reluctant to dismiss cases, and
yet he feels that something should be
done to compel attorneys TO dispose
of cases that have been placed ON the
calendar. Jugde Morgan expressed a
desire that this information be con.
veyed to Spokane lawyers. He Is
very earnest In tho matter. Tie an.
nounees also that from nov on is fast
as one case Is given to jury another
case will be called, without waiting
for verdict In the previous case.
This will entail additional labor on
the part OF the district judge, but he
Is determined to keep the docket free
from moaseovered cases. Those who
are acquainted with Judge Morgan
lay no blame at his door for the con
gested condition Of tho district court
calendar. At this term of the court
the jury will be kept steadily em
ployed until all jury cases are dis
posed Of. Lawyers who are not pre-.
pared TO proceed when their cases are
called will, 80 Judge Morgan de-
clarea, have TO accept the natural
consequence of their dilaEorinesa.

N,troren,s Love OF Freedom.

When left alone to its natural fmc-s
tons nitrogen pursues perfectly
peaceful course; but when man sue:
ceeds in capturing it and combining 4
with other elements it becomes a. dire
potentiality for evil, as is obvious IN
the recent events in the war OF the
Far East and in the crime committed
last week In the streets OF Moscow.
The love of freedom, SO to speak,.
characteristic Of nitrogen is terribly
exemplifed in the explosion OF the
bomb in which it is imprisoned and
bound to other elements. On the
slightest provocation-a spark, q
shock, a fuse-the nitrogen suddenly
expands from seemingly nothing, as
regards the space which 1t occupies.
into infnity. This Is, in reality, what;
happens when dynamite, lyddite OF
other unstable lnitro-compounds ex-l
plode when hurled in shells in war
fare and in bombs in desperate at-::
tacks on human lives. Nitrogen.
against its natural disposition, .
locked up in an uncongenial space in,
these compounds, from which It Is set
free by very simple means In an
enormously expanded gaseous state
with deadly effect, returning, in fact
to it's normal peaceful mission once
more. It is the analogue Of the sword
and the plowshare: In the nttro-ex-
plosive, nitrogen is the modern engine:
of warfare and crime; in the frees
state in the. atmosphere it minister's
directly to the quiet and peacefuls
needs of plant and human hfe.-Lanr

An atfectionate and imposing trib-
ute was paid by Washington Monday

Prior to church services the re-
=. mains of General Lee, which had
been lying in their casket in the

OF confederate veterans.
At one O'Clock the remains were
placed aboard a. special train for
Richmond.
The special reached the Virginia
capital about $3.50 o'clock and was
met, by an imposing array Of state
militia, confederate veterans, state or
f1cials and civic organizations.
The casket was placed on black
draped caisson drawn by six black
horses, at the head Of each horse be-
ing member of the Richmond Howit-
zers in full dress gray uniform. A
procession was formed and the march
was taken up for the city hall to sol
emn strains Of music from. a band.
The bells Of the city were tolled as
the procession moved, flags on the
buildings were at half-mast, and at
frequent intervals along the way spe-
cial emblems of mourning appeared in
drapery over store fronts and other
houses.
The street was packed with people
from the station to the city hall and
TIE evidence of popular sorrow at the
demise of General Lee was marked.
