- OISE, Oct. 3l-At session OF the
directors Of the Boise Chamber Of
Commerce, held last week the fol-
lowing resolutions were passed;
Complaints having been made to the
chamber Of commerce that the selection
OF lands IN the immediate vicinity Of
Boise by the state land board, acting
under the various acts Of Congress
granting lands to the state, worked an
injustice, IN that mineral lands already
located upon were included in these Sc
lections, and future prospectors and in
tending homesteaders would be deprived
Of the benefit Of the generous laws Of
the nation thus retarding the settle
ment and development Of the country
the matter was taken up for due con-
sideratlon by the board Of directors
Governor Gooding being appused,
appeared before the board and eX-
planned that these selections We're made
solely ln the best interes ts of the funds
for which they were granted, and that
IN every instance wherein mineral loca-
tions were included the same had been
released or would be released upon the
application of parties Interested, and
that future legislatures could De de-
pended upon TO legislate I'M the Interest
Of prospcctors, ana those DESTROYS of
becoming actual settlers willie M tha
same time safeguarding The interests
OF the funds for which these grants
were made by the national government
and which should ever be held IN "a
sacred trust. Therefore be Il
Resolved, by the Chamber OF Com
merce Of Boise that the action Of the
state land board IN the selection of
these lands IS In harmony with the spir-
It Of the nations gift ana In the line OK
official duty and that the board IL TO be
commended for respecting the rights
OF mineral locators without expense or
contest, while also protecting ana safe
guarding the rights OF the state
This Is matter that has attracted
q great deal ot attention here Early
this summer the state land board Sc
lected and filed on the quantity Of lands
lying Immediately north and east az
the penltentiary grounds ana the mill
tary reserve in the interests of Diff
ferent state land grants The lands are
hin lands, ana have apparently but
slight present value, although If fenced
they would make excellent pasture
lands 1t was largely for this reason
that these lands We're selected. St
having been found that the pcnitenti-
AIRY was compelled 90 pay large sums
for rental of pasture, which the taking
uc these lands would supply The
board also figured that in the future
the growth OF the capital city might
make these lands of great value.
After the lands had been selected IT,

n OCATELLO, Ida, Nov S.-It will
- be unnecessary to remind some OF
the citizens of Pocatelo that a
certain occasion known for some
inexplicable reason as "Hallowe en-"
was celebrated here one night this
week. While the average Pocatelloan Is
as willing that the boys should have
their time so long as they connne
themselves within certain limits, as Is
the average American, still the extreme
to which some of the celebrants went
last Tuesday night is sufficient cause
for the Indignation that has been
aroused IN the minds Of all, as an in
stance Of the utter disregard shown for
the rights or feeling OF others-and
which by the way Is but one cgse IN

Put~In- Bay Sept. An Il state
ment concerning the final determine
alton of the Royal Arcanum conven-
ton Supreme Secretary Robson. said
today: "The laws were amended
striking out option u by a very de-
clded vote Options - and c" are
made applicable to present member
ship only. An amendment was adopt
ed for the reinstatement, without new
medical examination, of members sus-
pended since June j, IL they apply for
reinstatement before November"
The proposition TO create Il frnternal
fund by annual contributions of 20
cents for each member. to be used in
payments of the assessments OF aged
members, was referred to the executive
committee. with power to procure nee
essary state legislation. The amend
ment providing for members over Gb
years of age paying only half their
assessments, the remainder to be
charged against their certificates, WAS
adopted"
Put-i Bay. o., Sept. 4.-The report
OF the special committee on assess-
ments Of the Royal Arcanum. made
Saturday night. and sustaining the
new rates adopted in Atlantic City In
May, has effectively ended the fight ON
the rules in this convention.
AT the final meeting of the session
this afternoon the proposition TO re-
peal the rules will be voted upon and
probably will be lost by large vote,
as the majority of the opposing dele
gates have left here.
Besides recommending that the At
lantic City rates be left without
change, the committee recommended
an amendment to the bylaws provid-
Ing that any member Of 65 years OF
age or over or hereafter reaching that
age may pay only half of the pre-
scribed amount of assessment, and the
balance, with per cent interest. COM
pounded annually. shall be charged
against his benefit certificate, ana de-
Quoted therefrom upon payment of the
benefit.
1t also recommended that special
fund be raised by the payment OF 20
cents a year, to be used only for the
relief of members of 65 years or over
whose circumstances are such that
they are not able to pay portion or
the whole Of their assessments.
The expenditure from this fraternal
fund Is to be under the direction of the
supreme regent, in accordance with
rates laid down by the executive COM
mittee.

tresses White Slippers Bar Them

| Chicago, Sept. 4.--The feature of tn,
celebration here of labor day was ;
parade, numbering several thousan,
marchers Many local labor union,
including carpenters and hod carriers
did not participate In the parade. The
carpenters had planned an all day out
ing for their members and families al
suburban park: Other building
trades unions arranged for similar sep.
arate programs.
The parade was halted when 1t was
discovered that the teamsters union
was marching behind a non-union
band. A committee went into confer
ence on the street corner, but the
trouble was adjusted and the parade
resumed.
The teamsters were counted on to
have the largest number of men In
line. Special efforts have been made
by the officers Of the various local
unions to bring out a full membership.
Several OF the unions win impose fines
upon all members who failed to appear
in the parade. Unions affiliated with
the Associated Building Trades also
made an excellent showing.
The question of uniforms for musi-
clans was satisfactorily settled. Pres
ident Kennedy Of the Chicago Fedora
ton of Musicians announced yesterday
that the members Of the organization
will obey the injunction issued by
Judge Tuley and interpose no objection
to any uniforms that may be worn.
IF there are any nonunion musi-
clans in the line, however, we will re-
fuse to march, added Mr.. Kennedy.
Efforts OF the police to keep the
street clear for the labor day parade
resulted in an accidental shooting to-
day of Mrs. Anna Hopkins. During the
exchange of shots at Michigan avenue
and Madison street between the police
and a man named William Laska.
when Laska was ordered to get back
into the crowd he drew a revolver and
began shooting.
