MAJOR WARNER RETIRES

William Ashley, Jr., has arrived
in the city with his family and will
take up his duties as receiver at the
local land office February l, when
the term Of Major c. d. Warner ex-
pires.
Major Warner, who has filled the
Office of receiver at the land Office for
the past nine years, first came to Ida
no in 1879 as an Indian agent to the
Nee Perce Indians, a position he
filled for about three and one-half
years, residing at Lapway, Idaho.
He resigned from this position with
the government to take up mining
and covered all portions of the min
ing districts of the northwest, both
as prospector and promoter until be
located in Occur d'Alene some 20
years ago when he entered the real
estate business. Later Mrs. Warnei
was appointed post mistress of CoeuI
d'Alene, and the major as assistant,
holding this Office for the four year
of Cleveland's administration. Abou
nine years ago he was appointed b!
the president as receiver and ha
filled the office since that time. Il
speaking of his duties and the future
he stated that he had not taken a va
cation in 13 years, but that he di,
not intend to retire from active life
and that he would rest up for mont
or so before getting into the barnes
again. AS to future occupation b
stated that he had not decided O
anything but that il no opportun it
opened the way in Occur d'Alene h
would go elsewere.
The major speaks highly of his SUI
, cessor, who has held Office in TIL
county for many years. Mr. Ashle
has secured a house and moved b
family to the city.

REOPEN LIBEL

On the application OF b. Whitla,
without giving Judge Morgan AN OPP
portunity TO be heard, the supreme
court, with no other evidence before
it but the word Of this individual.
granted q writ Of mandamus to com
pei the clerk Of the district court To
file an information against the pub.
Usher of the Press for criminal libel.
The history OF this case Is some
what interesting. During the cam
paign the county attorney made APP
plicatiOn to the board Of county
commissioners for II deputy ia his
Office, although the business would
not employ a lawyer more than half
his time. The request was granted
and Bartlett Sinclair made deputy for
Whitla at the public expense and IL
legally. The Press commented on
the transaction and gave reasons why
the appointment should not be made,
among other things stating that Sin
clair was short in his accounts as
treasurer Of Rial province. There
we're many personal matters connected
with the shortage which the Press did
not mention, among them the attempt
Of Sinclair to escape responsibility In
the attorney generals office in Man
lila. For showing up these illegaI
transactions whereby the treasury wat
being robbed the publisher was ar
rested on the charge OF criminal libel
The case will produce some inter
sstinR and sensational evidence tha
hiss never been published, which tn
Press will be prepared to give in de
tail At time Of the trial.

There are about 5000 cars of freight
on this division alone waiting to be
worked over the mountains. There
is an average Of about eight feet Of
snow along the line In the Cascades
and about six inches more fell today.
Well informed railroad men state
that a spell Of unusually warm wealth

WILL NOT GIVE
UP THEIR PASSES
IDAHO Legislators Love Free Rail-
road Rides

Boise, Idaho, Jan. 29.-There is
table over the anti-pass bill.
when the house got hold of the
MEASURE it thought it had a good
hing and proceeded to push it along.
n ves put through committee of the
vhOle with a rush and without dis
suting vote. 1t soon developed some
hing had changed the views of some
nsmbers and the bill was sent back
70 committee Of the whole to be again
recommended for passage by a small
majority.
Since then the bill has been slum-
barring while its enemies have been
vide awake. Yesterday a caucus of re-
publican members of both houses was
alled, it being understood the pur-
pOse was to get the house out of its
trouble, perhaps by agreeing that the
bill should be killed in its present
shape.
But the caucus had no sooner been
called to order than MCCracken of
Bingham asked If the members were
70 be bound by Its action. He was
told they would, whereupon he an
nOunCed he would not submit. Then
somebody hurriedIy moved an ad-
jOurnmAnt and the Meeting ended.
The probability seem to be an
anti pass bill will be passed appli-
cable to state and county officers,
and not to go into effect until the
FIRST of next year. That would make
Ill present paste-boards good. The
mbject will be up in the house to-
nOrrow and a fierce effort is being
made tonight to force the present bill
through. Both sides claim they have
majority.
Another feature of the day was a
report by the Judiciary committee OF
the house ON Fl. r. No. Al, by Whit
fen, an illegal cohabitation measure.
The committee recommended that il
pas in amended form, having strick-
On out the provision making the
Ofense a felony and reducing it to a
simple misdemsanor, the heavy PEN
atty going out with that. II is said
the committee, which has no Mormon
on its roll, got frightened at the pro
vision for fine and imprisonment il
the penitentiary. This action OF the
committee is not in line with thu
plan Of the steering committee, anC
there will probably be some interest
ing developments when the mattel
comes up in the house. 1t is prob
able a motion will be put through t.
restore the provisions stricken out.

Supreme Court Sustains Koot-
enai Case.

In an opinion of the supreme
court. Judge Ralph 7. Morgan is
affirmed in the ease Of the state of
idaho vs.. James o'Brien. In this
case defendant was convicted OF the
crime Of burglary and sentenced TO
q term OF II years In the state peni-
tentiary. The appeal is from the
Judgment alone. Several assignments
of errors are made. One was that
the defendant Was not given fair aud
impartial trial for the reason that Che
record failed to show that he was
ever informed by the court or other
person before the jury was called that
II he intended 10 challenge any indi.
Vidual juro, he must do 90 before the
jury was sworR. The supreme court
holds that the fact that such duty was
performed is not required to be- shown
in the record.
Another error assigned was that the
court failed to define larceny Ia his
instructions TO the jury. The opin-
ion says: ION a prosecution for
burglary in the hrst degrees and the
evidence is not before the court, the
court will not presume error because

FREIGHT BLOCKADE
Many Cars Have Accumulated
at Tacoma.

At A9CVAIAds
Tacoma, Wash, Jan. 29.-An-
was made by officials Of
the Northern Pacific railroad today
of an embargo, Immediately effective,
upon all kinds of freight except per-
ishable stuff destined for points east.
The road will not accept lumber OF
shingles or other dead freight des-
tined for eastern points until the
present traffic congestion, the worst
ever known, has been relieved. How
long the embargo will endure officials
of the road are unable to predict. No
effort will be spared, they state. to
lift il just as coon as possible. The
weather will be an important factor
in determining its duration. So
many loads have accumulated that
can not be moved ON account Of the
unprecedented SHOWS and cold weather
both in the Cascades and in eastern
Washington, as we'll as in Montana,
Dakota and other points, that il has
been absolutely necessary that some
measure be taken TO bring about re
lief and get freight traffic back u
normal. The only way the road car
do this, 1t il stated, is to stop reeeig
ing shipments until such time as tn
