STANDPOINT MYSTERY.
May Be Brother Of Rathdrum
Jeweler.

A stranger was found dead in a
box car at the Northern Pacific de-
pot at Standpoint last Friday morn-
ing. Jack Burdett, the station
agent, went to the car and found
the man sitting upright with re-
volver in his hand. He was frozen
stiff having evidently been dead
for some time. There was bull
let hole through his head and one
chamber of the revolver was emp
| ty. The position of the corpse
suggested suicide but the absence
Of powder burns indicate that the
man was murdered and placed in
that position to hide the crime.
When the news became public
people in the vicinity of the depot
stated that they heard shot about
10 o'clock the night before but
thought nothing of it at the time.
The man had been seen in Sand
point the day before. He had a
long bocketbook and was seen to
get $1o bill changed and to buy
new pair of shoes and rubbers.
The latter were found on the Sody
but the pocketbook was missing.
A knife with the letter "W" carv-
ed on the handle was found on the
body; also a blood stained diary
from which pages, on which writ
ing may have been, had been torn
| in bunch. The man was well
dressed and apparently about 80
years Of age.
| The remains were buried at
Standpoint, Sunday, no clue to the
mans identity having been found
at that time. But, on Tuesday,
| w. H. Jones, the Rathdrum jew
eler, saw a description of the mar
found at Standpoint, and at once
! believed that it was his brother
Robert Jones, whom he had beer
expecting to visit him in Rath
drum about Christmas, but who
did not arrive. Mr.. Jones made
| trip to Standpoint, Tuesday, witt
Deputy Sheriff Mcdonald, to in
vestigate the matter. He got th'
knife which he recognized by ths
carved initial as that Of his brother
Mr.. Jones also feels satisfied tina

brother. He will investigate fur

burns bill or the Esch- Townsend bill.
or whether some other rate bill will
come nearer meeting the Presidents
views. The principal difference be-
tween the two bills is that the Esch
Townsend bill proposes to place the
regulation OF rates in the Interstate
Commerce Commission, while Senator
Hepburn proposes a National Board
OF Corporations with full powers Of
supervision and regulation. How
ever the battle between organized
wealth and the people will soon be on
and the people of Idaho Will have an
opportunity to see where their junior

Thequestion Of the ratification Of
the treaty with San Domingo is now
the most important topic before the
Senate, and 1t is surprising to find so
many different opinions among men
of high standing as to the better
course to pursue with respect to that
unhappy island. Tie democrats in
the Senate are almost unanimously
opposed to the ratification Of the
treaty, and the republicans are not
united. The question has been
brought up Of aDnexing the island
outright, and great many Senators
are believed to favor this plan as the
easier way out OF the difficulty. A
few days ago Senator Hepburn, who
believes 10 annexation, introduced g
resolution authorizing the President
of the United States to acquire the
Island OF San Domingo by annexation.
In view OF the difficulties in the way
OF the treaty IL would seem that this
is the better course to follow. Fur
thermore the island Is SO situated
that it is very desirable that it should
be an integral part OF the United
/ States. There is no doubt that the
people of that country are very
anxious to have the United States
take charge Of them aud put STOP
To the petty revolutions and organized
! murder that have been going on there
for a great many years. The United
States is now spending millions 10
constructing the Panarna Canal, and
without our possessing the Island o.
!, San Domingo the canal will be al
most at the mercy of foreign powers
!! in case of war. 1t seems that Presi-
dent Roosevelt Is alive to the situa
tion and 10 case the treaty is defeated
he will probably take some othe
means Of acquiring this island whicl
is so essential to the protection of tn
lsthmian Canal.

look the matter up they'd find my

their charge customers"
"But l should. think the firm
would want a big cash trade?"

look at it differently. When wo-
man says, Charge, please the clerk
sits up and takes notice. The wo-
man who has an account is the wo.

NO WRIT OF REVIEW.
Supreme Court Denies McConnell's
5s5s.- Petition.

The supreme court has refused to
issue writ Of review In the case
brought by Ex-Governor Mcconnell
asking that the action of the state
board of equalization in fixing the
value OF railway property be reviewed.
The former governor alleged 1t had
not been assessed at its full cash
value according to statute. He fur
ther attacked the constitutionality OF
the law. The supreme court holds
that the constitutionality of an act
of the legislature eau not be attacked
BY such proceedings. On the other
point 1t says:
1.-The second question presented,
namely, that the board exceeded Its
jurisdiction in that it has assessed
the railroad and telegraph property
at less than its full cash value is
question Of fact and not of law. Th'
writ of review Is not a remedy 10
correcting errors and mistakes o
Judgment, neither can it be invoked
for the purpose of reviewing the fact
lupon which the inferior tribunal
board or officer acted except for tn
purpose of ascertaining the one fac
OF jurisdiction. Its province is limit
ed entirely to the question of law In
