Mr.. Carmack here carried the audi
ence into an imaginary world, where
every man was drunkard, and spoke
of the uselessness of their lives, the
corruption OF their Government and
the destruction of their. homes. He
showed the unhappy state of mind
which would exist and the lack OF de-
votion, and spiritual submission which
would possess every man in that con-
dition.
Hell was made" continued Mr..
Carmack, for the special accommodate
ton of every man who wants to go
there. The open saloon was made for
the man who wants to go there, and
it will not come to him and compel
him to drink"
Mr.. Carmack spoke briefly on the
power welded by the liquor interests
In the elections, it's demoralizing effect
upon the young men Of the country,
and touched lightly of the influence
of liquor in politics. He spoke of the

Entryman Keeps His Land.

In the case of Lewis ]. Magee VS..
Edward E.. Perry, both of Caldwell,
involving homestead entry No. 7422.
the register and receiver of the local
land office rendered a decision yes
trday favorable to the contestee,
holding that the entrymen had COM
piled with the requirements of the
law.
The contest was instituted by Ma
gee on the ground that Perry had
never established residence on the
land upon which he had filed, in the
manner prescribed by law. 1t ap-
peared from the evidence, however,
that the entryman had established
mis- residence on the land early in
December, 1904, within six months
from the date of his entry, that he
built thereon frame house and fur
nished 1t and cleared three acres of
the claim from sage brush. Later,
on account Of inability to secure wa
ter, Perry failed to cultivate the land
and went to work in Caldwell tempo

Washington, June 2.-There will
be a hot time In Denver when the
public lands convention gets to work
there next month. Information has
reached Washington that the enemies
OF the administrations public land
policy have "rigged" the convention
preparatory to making a bitter at
tack on President,
Members Of the cabinet, with Off
cials identified with the land office
and the forestry and reclamation di-
visions of the agricultural department
are going TO Denver, however, to put
up fight and prevent II possible the
promulgation of antagonistic resolu-
tions to the country at large. The
convention is to be held June IS, 10
and 90, under call issued by acting
Governor Harper of Colorado.
The "rigging" that is designed to
throw the gathering into the hands
of the enemies of the administration
has been done in connection with the
appointmet of the program commit
tee, which is to consist of the senior
senator and one representative in
congress from each state west of the
Mississippi river.
This adroit arrangement of the
principal committee, which proposes
to fix the work of the whole con-
vention, places in control the senator's
who took the lead in the fight against
the national forest legislation enacted
in June, 1906.
Senator Teller of Colorado will be
the chairman of the committee. He
will have for aids Senators Hepburn
of Idaho, Carter of Montana, Fulton
of Oregon and Clark of Wyoming, to
say nothing of the members of the
lower house like Mondell of Wyo-
ming, all of whom fiercely combat
ted. the administration when the
fight was on in congress.
BY this same arrangement the ad-
ministration side has been deprived
of the support it might have had
were senators like Bourne of Oregon,
Flint of California, Smoot of Utah,
Dixon of Montana and Warren of
Wyoming given places. 1t is declar-
ed that the supporters of the admin
istration have been purposely side
tracked.

last of Normal Bonds Redeemed.

State Treasurer C. A. Hastings, says
the Boise Statesman, has issued call
for the redemption of the last of the
bonds issued by the state in 1895 for
the building of the Lewiston and AL
bior State Normal schools. The orig
inal to"d issue was for $4,000
and the LIST lyment will he for sl3,-
600. The notice also calls for the re,
demption OF $4,000 wagon road
bonds.
The original issue of the wagon
road bonds, of which $4,000 is to be
raid. was for s135. After this
payment there will be left $4,000.
The history of the normal school
bonds includes many things of inter-
est. The bonds were authorized by
an act of the legislature of 1898, but
they ware not issued until 1895. This
was during the hard times, when the
states credit was not at its highest,
and the legislature gave the trustees
of the. Lewiston Normal authority to
use the money derived from the sale
of the lands granted by the national
government to the state normal
schools. This was necessary, II was
said, in order for the state to be able
to sell the bonds.-Lewiston Tribune.

There is comfort in the knowledge SO
often expressed, that DR.. kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys. liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
II corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use Of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine

ment had been planned to appear at the most advantageous time and many think that the president really delayed a specific statement and kept the country in doubt for a purpose.
 one leading daily went so far today as to say that the whole matter had been carefully arranged Secretary Taft was sent to visit foreign powers, 1t said, in order that he might acquire greater prestige while the doubt as to the presidents intentions kept other candidates from being boomed.
 The democrats express themselves as confident that, should the fight be be- tween Taft and Bryan, the democrats will have walkover.
 Many of the democratic leaders do not deny that they are jubilant at the prospect of Taft's candidacy.
 They believe Roosevelt to be the only man who could beat Bryan. and they consider Taft the weakest opponent the republican party could place before them.

PERKINS BLAMED FOR
 ALL THE TROUBLE

Spicket will issue the call for a new convention and SO many organizations now exist that confusion seems to reign supreme.
 Some still cling to the belief that the Juneau convention and the delegates elected there will be recognized. but the great majority have abandoned hope and have no doubt that it will be found to be worthless
 So great has been the agitation in connection with the convention, and so strong have been the feelings of the different factions that the quashing of the convention comes like flood of water on fire. and the reaction is great even until disgust.
 An the noise issuing now from the eNtinguished antagonists is but the splutter and cracking that come from the debris of all subdued confagra- tions. But one good will come from it. and is already making it's appearance. Some of those interested declare that all the factions should in future unite and be consulted about dates for con ventions. etc. so that the same un- worthy friction might be avoided.

Nuaest's Special Service.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 12.- President Roosevelt has decided to get at the bottom of the troubles at Gold field and has dispatched five of the most trusted commissioners of the de- partments of commerce, corporations and labor.
 The men sent are Lawrence, Mur- ray, Knox, Smith, and Charles Neill. of the commissioners is the belief, which the president entertains that, the mine owners exaggerated the dangers threatening from the strikers. It is said that this belief became convic- tion in the mind of Mir Roosevelt when he heard that imemdiately upon the arrival of the troops the mine own CTS declared a reduction of 20 per cent in the wages and demanded the busi- ness men to reduce the prices of their goods accordingly
 He is determined to get to the bot tom of the matter. and in his usual straightforward manner. he will act on the findings of his commissioners as soon as possible.
 He has also instructed them to look into the accusations of the wholesale robberies leveled at the unionists. It Is almost certain that a new and se- we're law will be passed in the near future covering the crime of stealing from mines
