which revised the instruments pre-
pared in advance by committee
named last winter and consisting of
F. W. Ketten bach, A. X. Steunenberg
and l. f. Rockwell. These were
adopted during the afternoon.
One of the provisions of the con-
stitution over which some interesting
discussion arose, was a section for
the protection of the members. 1t
was finally left In such form that the
different members of the association
are to notify the secretary and through
him all the other members of any
persons who attempt to victimize the
banks, through bogus checks or other
wise.
Nearly all the banks represented
are members of the American Bank
ers' association, which protects its
members from the professional bunco
steerer, but heretofore there has been
no organized means of defense or
guarding against the amateur
craftsman who prefers to secure his
money, without value received, over
the counter by day instead of through
the steel vault in the night time.
In addition to the address of well
come on behalf of the city and the
response at the opening of the session,
an address was delivered during the
afternoon by State Bank Examiner
@. S. Loveland and also by Alfred
Eoff and @. W. Moore on behalf of
the Boise bankers.

WISER Is WILING
TO AID pAGH[
Commercial Club, Thursday Hight.
Favored Switching Beet Lands
70 paysts.

The Weiser Commercial club held
its regular meeting at the club rooms
Thursday evening and semi officially
recommended that those who had land
in this vicinity which they were will
ing to put into beets proceed to sign
up with Payette, inasmuch as there
was practically no probability that
Weiser would be able to secure the
amount of land necessary to induce a
sugar factory to locate here. While
there was no motion spread upon the
minutes, it was the almost unanimous
sentiment, and especially of those
who had been soliciting. as expressed
verbally, that contracts with Payette
be encouraged, as it was better to
have factory there than none at all
and beet growers here would have
practically a home market and it
would demonstrate the value and pos
slbilities Of the industry and later
facilitate getting factory here if it
proved desirable.
The report of expenditure of money
on the Moore's Hollow road and sug-
gestions for further improvements
was received.
The secretary was authorized to
draw warrants on the treasurer in
favor of the advertising committee as

Senator BIal1cr Has Plan to Protect
Wheat RaiSers.

Senator Baker. from Linn county.
has presented a bill which if it be-
comes a law will mean a saving of
$4,000 a year to the wheat raisers of
Kansas.
The Kansas City elevators have for
years enforced an arbitrary rule that
100 pounds should be deducted from
every car of grain received by the
elevators.
The state weighmaster at Kansas
City weighs each car of grain and re-
turns the exact weight. The elevators
take 100 pounds off this weight for
Shrinkage and loss which they claim
results from the handling of the
grain Senator Baker says this 100
pound rule resulted in a loss of
$50 600 to Kansas wheat raisers who
shipped grain to Kansas City this
year. Senator Bakers bill, If it be-
comes a law viii compel the elevators
to pay for grain on a basis of the
total net weight returned by the state

CABINET RESIGNS.
Loubet Asks Members to Stay Until
He Can Fill Places.

Paris, Jan. 1S.-The Combes ministry
presented it's resignation to President
Loubet at the Elysee palace this morn
ing and the president accepted it, but
asked the ministers to individually car
ry on their functions until a new cabi-
net is formed. NJ. Loubet will begin the
consideration of the formation of new
cabinet this afternoon. He has sum-
moned the president of the senate, and
the president of the chamber of depu-
ties, Paul Doumer, to the Elysee for
conference at 4 o'clock in the case of
the former and at 5 o'clock in the case
of the datter. These conferences will
determine whom NJ. Loubet will invite
to form a ministry. NJ. RouvieF COLI
tinues to occupy the first place, but his
chances are less certain than at first
owing to the belief that a Rouvier cabi-
net would not last long on account of
the internal divisions of the parliament
tary grounds.

NO TEN CENT TICKETS
The $4,000 Exhausted in Thirty-siz
Hours After Sale Starts.

The fact that the Midwinter expo
sition has always played in good faith
with the public, and provided a show
that was fully up to the representa-
tons of it's advertising, would appear
to be producing results. The advance
sale of the $1,000 ten cent tickets,
which began Monday morning was
practically finished in thirty-six hours
time. But when one stops to consider it
isn't strange after all, because in the
Midwinter the people are coming to
realize that they get show that's
worth fully fifty to seventy-hve cents
for fifteen cents. Tomorrow the If
teen cent advance tickets will be
placed on sale. but probably at only
four places: RoWley e. Snow, George
Burghart L. S. Woolverton and Geo.
w. Stansfield.
The very rapid sale of advance tick
cts impelled the suggestion to the
manager of the Midwinter that they
were being picked up by scalpers, but
this idea is not credited at all. The
small difference in price hardly JUS
titles such work, and no trouble has
ever been had in that way in past
years. But purchasers of advance
tickets can readily satisfy themselves
that they are buying straight fifteen
cent tickets by observing the numbers
on the tickets. which are all consecu-
lively numbered and the tickets bear
ing numbers from $4,000 up are ff-
teen cent tickets.
The purpose of the management in
placing on sale fifteen cent advance
tickets. is simply to make it more con-
venient for people to purchase and
avoid the lam that is invariably the
case at the Midwinter box office.

THREE sHERIFFs IN JAIL.
Question of Who Is Legal Officer Re
mains Undecided.

Detroit, Mich, Jan. 1S.-With three
sheriffs actually lodged in the county
jail, the question of who is legally the
chief executive officer of Wayne coun-
ty is conundrum that is moving
slowly toward a decision in the courts
John T. Hoffman. who was elected
sheriff on November 8. is a prisoner
at the jail under a four years SEN
tence for receiving money under false
pretenses. Henry Dickson, whose
term as sheriff expired on January ],
had held Office four years up to that
date and a constitutional provision
prohibits a longer term. William
Butler, who was Dickson's turnkey
was appointed sheriff by the prosecut-
ing attorney and county clerk on the
ground that the Office was vacant
Butler and Dickson continue to hold
possession of the jail in harmony with
each other, regardless of which one
may eventually be declared ad interim
sheriff However. the county auditor
has allowed Dickson's employees to re-
ceive their pay, thus tacitly recog-
nizing him as sheriff, although they
appointed Butler as their special rep
reSentative at the tail.

wAGGENER SEES LIGHT.
Thinks That His Senatorial Bill May
Be Passed.

Senator Waggener thinks there is a
lature to pass his bill providing a
means for the voters to express their
choice for United States senator.
1.-The provisions of my bill have been
carried out in Nebraska said Senator
Waggener today. THE Nebraska Re-
publican state convention endorsed
Burkett for senator and yesterday the
Nebraska legislature elected him with
out holding a caucus. Both political
parties in this state have demanded
that the people express their choice for
senator. Under the constitution the
choice of the people would not be bind
ing but such a law would get the
names of the candidates on the state
tickets and before the people. If this
bill becomes q law I do not believe any
legal points can be raised against it,

A MISAPPREHENSIoN

Heretofore the innumerable policy-holders in
the great life insurance companies have limo
Gently supposed that they paid their premiums foI
the primary purpose of providing for their own
families. Recent truth-telling exposures have
shown them that they chiefly provide for the fam
lilies of the insurance magnates
For instance, there is the special variety
of money-suckers that has been feeding on the
big mutual insurance companies. Six Alex
anders have been drawing $239,000 a year in
salaries from that so-called mutual company,
the Equitable. The only reason that the
Hydes have not as many fat jobs IS that there
are not as many Hydes available. There are
plenty of jobs. Jobs can be made to order
in the New York Life. President Mccall
has five of his near relatives in high and
juicy offices. Vice Presidents Perkins and
Buckner have each a couple. In the Mutual
Life of New York President McCurdy has
found big positions for two relatives, while
most Of the other good places are filled by
members of little knot of families in the
board of trustees"
