George Ned, a young Hawaiian who
has been acting very strangely for some
time past, was taken violently insane
this morning, his actions causing resi-

homes. Officer Harry Lake was pass

troubled with doctors, who were plac-

ley, when asked last evening to ex
plain the movement and what prompt
ed II. said. The jobers Of Boise are
all In favor Of a state commission ts
regulate railroads, and will make
an earnest hard effort TO secure the
appointment Of one. In this they
will be supported by many retailers.
In brief. We desire the appointment
Of commission In order that railroad
affairs In Idaho, which effect the
public. may be put on a more BUSH
ness-like basis. There are also num-
erous specific reasons Why We will
urge commission. We are not al
together satisfied With freight rates
There vas a recent adjustment which
fized fair rate In some cases, but
left others as they we're. and this is
Objectionable. Generally, the pres
ent rates arc satisfactory, but could
be better arranged II commission
we're appointed that could look after
adjustment Of railroad matters in
Idaho, while working vita the inter-
state commerce commission. There
are matters not only In freight traffic
but passenger traffic az we'll. that
need adjustment In Idaho. and we be-
Iieve the appointment Of a commiss-
ion is the only method which Will
offer a satisfactory solution. Two
years ago wholesalers Of Boise we're
opposed to a commission because We
had the promises Of the railroads that
they would treat us fair In all matters.
This they have failed to do. and We
are nov strongly In favor Of a CON-
and proposeto use every
possible means to secure one.
