THEY FILE ON
"a HOMEsTEADs

Thirty-four homesteaders lined up
and offered filings at the land office
this morning for the land in townships
80, and east. where something like
$4,000 acres is opened for settlement.
The state still has a 6O-days prefer
ence right and no one is seriously con.
sidered but actual homesteaders and
they can come in at any time within
60 days. ~
What was taken this morning COW
ers about 5000 acres of the townships
opened. Two timber and stone entries
were filed, but these were held In sus..
pense. pending the so days when the
state has a priority right There were
two conflicts among the homesteaders
arising from the fact that the original
survey had been changed since the
first settlements were made. The
state now has sixty days preference
when others may file on what is left.

MORMON ISSUE
STARTS FIGHT
Democrats Have Red
Hot Session in the
Convention

Occur dAlene Idaho. Aug. AFTER
hotly contested fight In the creden-
tials committee yesterday followed by
renewal on the floor OF the conven-
tion the Mormon issue was brought
fairly before the democratic state con-
vention and threshed out with q good
deal OF feeling. 1t resulted in a COM
plete victory for Senator Dubois in
the seating of the contesting delega-
tion from Fremont county, anti Nor
mon. and the unseating Of the regular
delegation from Bear Lake county be-
cause they were Mormons and one OF
their members alleged to be poly
gamist.
The main fight was In the sessions
of the committee held aboard the
steamer Idaho as the delegates were
taking a pleasure trip. Here the bat
tie ragged for two hours and personal
alteration was evaded only because
two OF the hot headed wranglers could
not get near enough for blows. The
charge was made that the democrats
OF Fremont and Bear Lake counties
were treacherous and had failed to
support the ticket two years ago, that
they were not democrats but Mormons
and polygamists.
That physical encounter was
averted at the committee meeting on
the steamer was due apparently to
the fact that wide table separated
State Chairman c. H. jackson and
Delegate Dalrymple, OF Bear Lake, and
that the audience was packed so close
ly about them that they could not get
at each other by circling the able.
Mr.. Jackson had charged that Dele
gate Pugmire. of Bear Lake, had been
a polygamist

who are here to bid on the contract are
James Broad and Peter Costello Of

One complaint among the contract
ors is that the local banks are not
disposed to look favorably on the
handling Of the warrants. They either
refuse them outright or put up the
discount to a point that is prohibitive.
The result is that the cost Of con-
