CLUB DISCUSSES
MANY MATTERS

The directors of the Commercial
club met at noon today and discuss
ed the construction OF a wagon
bridge across the Clearwater river at
Lewiston, the matter of securing a
democratic convention and received
report of the baseball committee
in which it was stated that grounds
had not been secured, but several
teams could be secured to train. in
Lewiston, among which is the Butte
team.
The North Lewiston bridge ques-
tion was referred to a committee to
confer with j. p Graves when he
comes to Lewiston. The people of
the North Lewiston country have in
dieated willingness to subscribe
literally toward the construction of
such bridge, and it is stated the
receipts of the Lewiston and central
ferries will pay per cent interest
on $4,000, while the bridge could
be constructed for approximately
$4,000.
The club today turned down the
proposition of bringing the demo-
cratic state nominating convention
to Lewiston on the grounds that the
club, as an organization, could not
negotiate in matters of a political
character. The question of the DEM
ocratic convention was brought be-
fore the board by the report of a
committee appointed by the club
some time ago, this committee re-
porting that conditions were favora-
BILE for securing the state nominating
convention providing a delegate
might be sent to Boise to attend the
meeting of the state central commit
tee.
1t was in the consideration of this
report that the club directors decid-
ed the best interests of the club
compelled them to refrain from deal
ing with matters political, and the
work was quietly passed out that
democratic members of the club
might put forth their efforts to Sc
cure the state convention, for which
the club generally would be thank
full.

RED FEATHERS
PRIMA DONNA
MISS CHERIDAH SIMPSON HAS
RARE MUSICAL ABILITY AND
Is SURPRISE AND DELIGHT
FOR HEARERS.

Cheridah Simpson, the prima dom
Ia of Red Feather" possesses the
rare gift known as absolute pitch. So
Keen is her ear that no matter how
many notes are struck in a chord, or
what instruments are used, she will
call each note correctly, according
to international pitch. Many casual
acquaintance consider it merely n
clever trick, as in most instances the
only instrument available for a test
is a piano, and the actual fact that
her ear alone is responsible is only
accepted after proof.
When only child of 10 she was
a pianist of remarkable ability and
was engaged to play a concerto with
the Bach's symphony orchestra of
Milwaukee. While waiting for her
turn she overheard an argument be-
tween the double bass as to which
was in tune, and volunteered the in
formation that neither OF them was,
and at her request they turned to
her ear, and when the oboe gave the
"A" she was found to be correct.
During her season with the Prince
OF Pilsen" company, the clarinet
player invariably came to her dress
ing room for "a" long before the
oboe player, who sounds the notes
for the other instruments, arrived in
the theater and always found that
he was in perfect tune when the
overture was played,
The most remarkable part of It
is that though Miss Simpson can
play the most difficult compositions
with great ability and perfect tech
.nique. she cannot read music in
tempo. The reason for this possess
sion of the gift of absolute pitch
has puzzles every musician she has
come in contact with. She can tell
the tone of every street gong as It
Tasses. the extreme top notes of the
canary or the low boom of the deep
toned pipe organ strikes her sensi-
five ear with the musical vibration
OF the equivalent tone in the scale.

HERDERS SHALL
NOT t RESSPAS
CATTLE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO
DRIFT ONTO FOREST RE-
SERVES AND GOVERNMENT
NOT BOUND BY FENCING Law

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-United
States Attorney Carl Rasch of Mon.
tana has notified Clifford Pinchot,
chief of the United States forest
service, that the United States cir
cult court of appeals at San Fran
cisco has affirmed the decision of
Judge Hunt in the grazing trespass
case instituted by the government
against Thomas Shannon.
No copy of the decision has yet
been received by the forest service,
but it is believed that it forbids
stockmen to allow their cattle to
drift upon the national forests and
that the national forests need not
be fenced to prevent such drifting,
although the state laws make such
fencing necessary for private lands.
In December, 1904, Shannon al
lowed his cattle to drift upon the
Little Belt national forest in Mon
tana. To put stop to this suit was
brought by tho United States, and
ON March Is, 1907, Judge Hunt, In
the United States circuit court for
that state, rendered decision in ia
vor of the government and Issued an
injunction perpetually restraining
Shannon from allowing his cattle to
drift upon the forests Montana has
a fence law by which landowners
must fence their lands before they
can obtain redress from stockmen
whose cattle, feeding upon the open
public domain. range upon and in
iure private lands.
Shannon's counsel argued that
this state law should apply rs
against the United States. but Judge
Hunt held that the power of con-
gres over the public lands, including
the national forests. is complete:
that congress has lawfully delegated
to the secretary of agriculture the
authority to make regulations to
protect the forest; that the seere-
tary had properly made a regulation
that cattle must not range upon the

Ungratefui Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin direct primary law lie
a statute Of ROBERT MARION LA Fol-
LETTE's own devising, It was enacted
through his efforts, against the oppo-
sition Of the Federal crowd or
"stalwarts,' whose ascendency in the
State he assailed and whom he drove
from power. Now, under its opera
ton, Senator ISAAC STEPHENSON, op-
posed by Mr.. la TOILETTE, has beaten
the La Toilette candidates at the polls.
To make the dose doubly bitter neither
Of the La Toilette candidates who ran
got second place. They ran third and
fourth. That Is ono instance Of the
ingratitude OF Wisconsin.
Still another exhibits itself in the
primary returns. The Hon. JOHN J.
JENKINS, chairman OF the House Judi
ciary Committee, was defeated for
denomination in the Eleventh district
by l. J.. LlSRooT. Mr.. LINRooT is a
La Toilette man, but Mr.. JENKINS had
a certificate Of good character from
the Universal Boss, which, IL was be-
lieved by his friends, would soften the
hearts of all good and true men toward
him, even to the extent Of overcoming
the prejudioes aroused by his friendship
for JOSEPH G. CANNON. The enmity Of
LA TOILETTE and the approval of CAM
NON were burdens too heavy to be
lifted, even by the Endorsement from
Headquarters, and Mr. JENKINS was
defeated.

LA TOILETTE inflicted by the victorious

Law and order, formerly assisted by the
Governor, always triumphed at the last.
Law and order this time without the
Governors cooperation have conquered
also. There has been an unusual delay
but the contamination has not been
brought about by CoMER's windy
threats. 1t is clearly the result of q
conviction on the part Of the agitators
that their case is hopeless combined
with a doubtless fragrant tendency on
the part OF the strikers to throw of a
petty tyranny and get back to their
fleshpots as soon as possible.
But Alabama will not forget that the
Peerless One has been consorting with
GoMPERs, MITCHELL & Co., the inspira-
ton of the strike. Nothing visible may
come of it this year, but the ferment
has been set at work. The responsible
elements of the State are beginning to
know their friends in politics and some
day, at the psychological moment they
will show that they set the right value
on their enemies.

Manufacturing Anu-Hushes Sentiment.

mated by the time he got there. all flushed
with the confidence Of his easy victory.

defeat he told the caucus that he would

From Vermont to Maine.

Vermont has never done anything for
Mr.. BRYAN and 1t never will do any
thing for him. So far as Vermont indi-
Gates popular septiment, his goose is
cooked. The growth Of socialism there,
small as it is at present, and the first
fruits Of HEARST and HIsoEN, are hon.
ors which he must share with the clev-
erer and more successful demagogue
whose heir he insists that he is. The
Green Mountain stock, in so far as it
hos not been mellowed or muddied by
new growths and races, is hard headed,
Of a secret and cynical humor, averse to
that thin emotional oratorical theatre
cal temperament Of Mr.. BRYAN. The
Vermonters love property, wealth, a
competence, a living, grubbed difficulty
from a sarcastic soil and urban visitors,
whom they despise. They q Mr..
BRYAN getting rich and richer by
swatting wealth, and their faces Gackle
into silent laughter. Mr.. BRYAN is
thoroughly appreciated wherever the
incorporated Yankee is to be found.
BURKE, the Blacksmith, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor, is a
"leetle' too picturesque, perhaps, or has
become Nresome. At any rate the YER
mont Democrats arc numerous enough
not to be thoroughly in accord. Now
il the best Of our knowledge and belief
is not at fault the Maine Democrats
have a much more humming and 'hefty'
man In their nominee, the Hon. OBA-
pIAH GARDNER, a name unmusical In
the Volscians' ears. OBADIAH's case
may DO hopeless, but he's going to make
the best kind of a run he can have for
his money. Then, Maine has consider
able gomperized tracts and industrial
populations susceptible to the winds Of
discomfort. Finally, rum and resub-
mission raise their insureent heads;
and so there is always the means Of a
very pretty fight in the realm Of Dow
and the Dirigos.
So Mr.. BRYAN can wipe Vermont from
his map and await the news from Maine.
II Maine brings him no comfort, why,
what could be expected Of tariff ridden,
trust ridden, New England? The West
rules; and the West feels it's oats and
loves innovations. There he hopes to
collect the Roosevelt bequest. In Now
England he couldn't collect even the

County Judges In Politics.

A despatch from Albany to the New
York Tribune giving an account Of the
denomination Of WILLIAM j. GRArrAN
for State Senator says:
The nominating speech was made by County
Judge ABpISoros. The presence OF q member
Of the judiciary at a convention making a nom
mating speech has caused considerable gossip
among the legal fraternity Of Albany county"
This is expressive OF the general pub
lie sentiment against the active partici-
patton Of the judiciary In party politics.
Perhaps a distinction should be made,
however, as far as County Judges are
concerned in the greater part Of the
State.
Except in counties having a popula-
ton exceeding 10000 County Judges
ar permitted to practise law. Their
salaries are usually so small that II they
were prohibited from practice it would
be difficult to find competent lawyers
who could afford to accept the office OF

been deemed improper for them to

IL would be preferable for them to do
otherwise we do not now discuss. We
merely call attention to what has been
the prevailing custom.
