HE BET ON MORMONS.
Custer County Man Took in Pocatello
Crowd

Up in Custer county, Ida, lives Bra
zilla Clark, an all-around good fellow
and one who has pronounced views upon
the Mormon question and does not hesi-
tate TO express them. He was a dele
gate TO the recent Democratic State
convention In Idaho, and to reach Occur
dAlene he had to travel nearly a thou
sand miles, seventyflve miles by stage.
and paid out SOC railroad fare. Yet he
won all this back and 81 for pin money
by betting on a Mormon baseball team
without knowing the players whom he
was backing were OF the hated faith
Mr. Clark went by way Of Pocatello,
and TO q Spokesman Review man he de-
tailed a good story. He had TO kill time
between trains, and was rejoiced TO learn
that q baseball game was In progress.
In his college days he was a confirmed
fan. and presently found himself occupy
Ing "rooters row" at the Pocatello eX-
hibition. with the spirit of a true Amer
lean he took TO roofing for the under
dog. In this case II happened to be the
Brigham City nine Pocatello was three
scores In the lead, and the audience, con-
sisting almost exclusively of Pocatello
partisans. was wildly cheering every play
of its fayorites. Eventually his ardor
in behalf of the visiting team was re-
sented by one OF the Pocatello fans.
Maybe you think enough OF that
bunch of dubs 10 bet a little piece OF
money on Them" remarked Mr.. Fan.
addressing Clark amidst the audible tit
tiers OF other rooters.
Don't care II / do" responded Clark
smarting under the challenge.
Although he didn't think he had a
ghost of a show to win. Mr., Clark soon
| found himself exactly $50 TO the bad, hay-
Ing wagered this sum in $40 and IS bets
with the fans who had crowded about
| him TO gather in the "soft."
Suddenly all was changed, The Po-
! catello pitcher went skyrocketing and

Clark had won. ''Id never bet on bunch

WHITE PANTS FATAL.
Handsome, Spotless Trousers Cost Man
a Nomination.

Charles H Jackson of Orchard Ranch,
Idaho, and former chairman OF the Idaho
State Democratic committee, came with
in a few votes of receiving the Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor of the
Gem State two years ago, Apropos OF
this a good story is told explaining how
his political star, once In the ascend
ancy, was suddenly eclipsed He waged
q strenuous campaign for the Guberna-
torial nomination, in the face of heavy
odds. In fact, he succeeded in making
all exceptional showing, but was never
theless defeated.
Now, nature, in her wisdom, has en-
dowed Mr.. Jackson with the looks OF a
matinee idol and he has the faculty of
wearing clothes of the latest fashion and
looking a Ward McAlllster. After his
defeat Mr.. Jackson sought little salve
for his wounds and approached a Boise
county township leader with an inquiry
as 10 what caused his defeat,
We'll, Mr.. Jackson" was the reply
ito tell you the honest truth, 1t was
them white pants"
The candidate had committed the un-
pardonable error of appearing on the
platform In rural districts garbed In
duck trousers, and there was more truth
than poetry In what the Boise county
politician said.

PECULIAR DEFECT
IN IDAHO LAW
No Statute Requiring the Reg
istratiOn of Births in
the State.
ONLY STATE HAVING NO
ACT UPON THIS SUBJECT
Bill to Remedy the Matter, In
troduced in Legislature,
Killed in Committee.

Idaho enjoys q peculiar position In so
far as the registration of births is con-
cerncd. 1t differs from all other States
In that there is no statute upon the
subject. The reason is obvious. In the
last Legislature, controlled and domi-
mated by q Mormon Speaker Of the House,
an effort was made TO remedy this de-
feet In the statutes. j. II. Wourms. an
attorney of Shoshone, drafted a meas
ure and asked a friend to get 1t through
before II reached first base and never
1t was referred,
IQ talking about this matter with a
Tribune representative recently, MT.
Wourms said.
II instituted an Investigation aud dis
covered that previous efforts to enact
sucn legislation had been effectually
balked. 1t was charged that Mormon
influence had been responsible for this
condition Of affairs, The registration of
births would provide too much docu-
mentary evidence OF polygamy. A friend
told me OF case in which client. who
had been born and reared In Idaho, had
returned TO Switzerland and attempted
to acquire title 10 some land. 1t ap
pears that under the law OF Swltzcr-
land a landowner must furnish certa-
cate OF birth. copied from the birth
records Of the locality in which he came
into the world. In the case Of the
Idaho man IT was an utter impossibility,
The need OF such a law is particularly
urged by those who are interested in
preparing vital statistics"
