Reports from all over the North

AT Pullman the thermometer was
s below zero last night. 1t was ne
cessary to dismiss the public
schools one session.
Moscow, Idaho, has seen during
the past few days the heaviest fall
of snow for the past eight or nine
years. The mercury is lowering
around Is below zero, with a seem
ing inclination to drop further.
South of Lewiston the same sort
of weather is prevalent, Grange
vile reporting zero marks for a
number of days past. while to the
north the weather is the most
frigid of the present season. Lew
iston seems to be more or less i'm
mune, as the temperature at that
place has not dropped to the cipher
place during the cold snap.

the coolest of the season, was reg

much to the discomfort of the in

Ice from six to seven inches

is freely predicted that il Senator
Ankeny has to go before the people
on a direct primary ticket for re-
nomination he will be defeated by
some man with more ability and

There is also a likelihood that
the state will be divided into con-
gressional districts, that the tax
laws will be made effective and the
powers of the railway commission
enlarged. Reciprocal demurrage

a better insurance law and similar
