Editor Independent-Noting the
article copied from the Caldwell Tri-
bune, in your columns, entitled Bad
Faith, etc." 1 am constrained to say,
that, as Republicans, having become
convinced that the people are In ear
nest in demanding some kind OF tenn
perance legislation, we ought to give
the subject our most earnest heed.
If they ask for bread and we give
them a stone, they may hurl the stone
back at us with disastrous effect.
That there are some earnest, per-
sistent prohibitionists who are asking
for state wide prohibition, doing so
in entire good faith, is not to be de-
MED. But that tire are, just now,
a considerable number, especially
among Republicans, who are brlm
full and running over with enthu-
siasm for prohibition, whose past re-
Gordon the temperance question Is
at variance with their present atti-
tude, is also apparent.
A new convert is always full OF
zeal but 1t Is rarely safe to trust the
helm to a novice be he ever SO en-
thusiastic.
The great body of temperance
workers, the men and women VINO
have made a study of the situation
the people who have been spending
their time and money in building VI
a sentiment in this state, the people
who are responsible for the over
whelming demand that we all recog

of the great political parties of thi'
stat to sit up and take notice, say
these people are asking for Loca
Option law; and If the Republican
party, following the lead of those VIII

On motion the report was accepted.
Following the committees report
some enthusiastic brother moved that
Payette be selected for holding the
first county convention; on motion OF
Judge Hart an amendment was Of
fered that Nampa be the town select
ed OF cours this manner Of proceed
ure was a littl out Of order. However
the question was submitted to vote
by ballot, resulting in Payette get
ting the plum. Some Caldwell man
moved that the Magic City be select
ed as the place for holding the county
nominating convention; the question
was called for and the yeas and nays
were counted without debate, and
Caldwell was unanimously selected.
The dates for holding the primaries
was fixed for April 81 and Sep. Z.
The dates for the conventions are hx-
ed for April goth and September 8.
A happy thought struck M. A. Bates
and he made a motion to adjourn,
but the chair declared the motion lost
altho division was called for but the
chair evidently thought that Bates
had something up his sleeve with the
idea that division was meant for the
idea of finding out how many anti
: Mormons were present. Former Pro-
: lessor Wilson of Emmett was loaded
for bear and made motion that a
. committee be appointed to formulate
: some special planks for platform to
: be referred to the primaries for rati-
o fication. This motion brought H. A
Grifiths to his feet and in an eloquent
Z five-minute talk put the 'kibosh' or
. the proposition-but not until MT
Wilson of Emmett and Mr.. Wallini
of Nampa had their say. Chairman

sion and when the votes were counte'

Utah Wool Situation.

The wool season will be formally
opened Wednesday, March rs. Flock
masters are hurrying their sheep
from the winter ranges toward the
Utah sharing corrals. Doc Dennis,
manager of the Lofgreen corrals In
Tooele county, on the Salt Lake Route
left Tuesday for that point to get |
evrything in readiness to commence |
shearing Wednesday,.
In discussing the wool situation,
Mr.. Dennis stated that 1t Is antici-
pated that the clip this year will be
greater than for several years past,
due largely to the fact that during
the winter ideal weather conditions
prevailed on nearly all Of the winter
| ranges. There was ample snow for
water, but at no time did 1t attain
sufficient depth to give the focks
trouble in feeding. Having had good
grazing and plenty of water, the sheep
are coming of the ranges In good
flesh and carrying wool long, clean
and of excellent quality.
Flockmasters suffered hardly any
losses during the unusually mild win
ter, so probably will shear a greater
number of fleeces by large per cent
than would have been possible had
the winter been a severe one.
Market conditions are not nearly
: as favorable as have prevailed dur
, ing the past several seasons, but are
} somewhat better than was anticipated
l early in the year. The fnancia
/ stringency has not affected the WOO

le- or 400 of the wooden mills In t

New York, Oct 2S.-Major John
Hams. brother of Annis' slayer, made
a sensational statement, blaming the
wives of army officers for Mrs. Hams
downfall He pictured Captain Hams
as, a husband driven mad by his wife S
actions, and unable to resist the temp
tation to kill her betrayer. He says
Mrs. Hams was an innocent girl, but
during her husbands absence was
taught by the other women to smoke
and drink. Her entire nature was
changed. Letters show this. Captain
Hams hurried home, but refused to
believe the rumors until his wife con-
fessed that she loved Annis, and did
not love her husband. He admitted
the wife was away for a week, and
Annis paid her bills. Hams mind was
unbalanced by the fearful disclosures
and he finally killed Annis. This
statement is likely to create great
sensation at Fort Hamilton, where
these things are reported to have
taken place.
