Especial to The Herald.)

Boise. Ida, Jan. 25.-Miss Belle
Chamberlain, state superintendent of
public instruction, has received d reply
from Senator Borah relative to pre-
senting a bill for setting aside sc, 600
acres of land for the benefit and MAIN
tenance of the state school for the deaf
and blind, which does not give much
encourag cement for the passage of such
a bill. Senator BOrah's letter, which
is in reply to one written about a
week ago by Miss Chamberlain, states
that on account of slaughtering of
such bills by the house there does not
seem to be any possible chance, but
that he will introduce such bill and
has hope of getting it through the SEN
ate, after which it will be presented
to the house for disposition by that
BODY.
