Leesburg was at one time the larg-
est city in the state of Idaho, says a
Boise paper. The population reached
5000 in 1867. The yield of gold for

Asquith Is Popular.

Mr.. Asquith's succession to the pre-
miership will be well received by all
sections of his party with the possible
exception of the extreme radical and
labor men, who are inclined to see in
his imperialistic views the end of some
of their aspirations for socialistic re-
forms. Similar feelings are likely to
prevail in the Irish benches, where he
is not regarded as a sure friend of
home rule in any degree beyond giving
Ireland control of her merely local
affairs.

PREMIEROFENGANLD
RESIGNATION OF CAMPBELL
BANNERMAN Accepted.
On Account of Continued Illness he
Was Compelled to Quit Official
Duties-WhoIe Cabinet Resigns Also
Herbert n. Asquith Appointed by
King Edward to the High Position

London, April 6.-Great Britain is
tonight in a peculiar condition-no
ministry. The long-expected resigna-
ton of Sir Henry Campbell Banner
man as prime minister was officially
announced. According to the court
circular, he resigned on the urgent
recommendation Of his medical advis-
ers. AS the constitution of the coun-
try provides no automatic successor,
1t resting with the king to choose
new head of the government and in
accordance with custom and prece-
dent the whole cabinet resigns with
the premier, no step to appoint a min
istry can be taken until Herbert H.
Asquith, chancellor for the exchequer,
who has been summoned to Biarritz
for the purpose, has seen the king.
The position Of the country is quite
unprecedented, there being no previous
example of a resignation occurring in
the premiership while the sovereign
was abroad. On this account the
course of procedure to be followed is
In some doubt.

New Lineup of Cabinet.

1t is regarded now as practically GER
ain that David Lloyd George, president
of the board of trade, will succeed Mr.
Asquith as chancellor, and that Sir
Edward Grey will retain his portfolio
as foreign secretary.
Among the interesting predictions is
that Winston Spencer Churchill, under
secretary for the colonies, will take
the place of the Earl of Elgin as colon
ial secretary, and that Lord Tweed
mouth, first lord of the admiralty, will
withdraw in order to accept some other
office

Sir Henry No Better.

Sir Henry's condition remains I'M
changed, according to the physicians
bulletin. The king, in telegraphing his
cceptance of the premier's resignation
conveyed an expression of his regret
and esteem, with best wishes for Sir
Henry's recovery.
Today has been fixed for Mr.. Asquith
to move in the house of commons the
second reading of the licensing bill, the
measure that is regarded as the most
dangerous of all the government bills
vital to the ministry's tenure of office.
Under the changed conditions, this de-
bate will probably be postponed to en-
able the chancellor to proceed to Biar-
ritz to kiss the kings hands on his ap-
pointment as premier and submit his
proposals for the reconstruction of the
cabinet 1t may be inferred that no
more contentious business will come
before the house until the new minis
tiers are appointed.

INJUNCTION DENIED
JUDGE HOLDS HE CANNOT RE.
STRAIN OFFICERS FROM AR.
RESTING SALESMAN.

t\lester, Okla, June 13.-Judge
Ralph L. Campbell of the United
States court has denied the applica
tion OF A. H. Dreyfus, the Kansas City
solicitor for orders for interstate
shipment OF liquor, for an Injunction
restraining Oklahoma officers from
harassing him by arrests.
Without passing on whether the
Billups law conflicts with the federal
constitution, Judge Campbell held
that he was without jurisdiction. He
quoted at length the decision by Jus
ticc Harlan in Fits VS.. McGhee, L. S.
5l7, and added: TT follows that this
court is without jurisdiction TO en-
join the defendants, as officials of the
state from proceeding to enforce by
criminal prosecutions the laws of the
state, even though 1t may be contend
ed that such laws are repugnant to
the constitution of the United States.
This is a defense OF which the COM
plainant may avail himself in the
courts OF the state and If unsuccess-
ful there, may, on writ of error, take
his case to the supreme court Of the
United States for final decision.

their session next fall, aud to secure
the building of the seventy. five struc-
lures Is problem that County Sup,r
intendent of Education Mrs. Mary Y
N!back and the various boards of
trustees in the county will have To
settle. None of the buildings to be
used in this county will be other
than modern structures. though not
all costly. Every school building 10
be put up in this county that will con.
tain more than one room will be a
two-story structure, the upper flood
to be used as an assembly hall.
Mrs. Niblack has about adopted the
plan to have all of the districts
throughout the county vote a special
bond issue and thereby build school
houses. In great many cases. where
1t Is possible brick will be used. and
In many of the districts buildings
with three or more rooms will be
constructed so as to save the expense
OF having to build additions in future
years
Tue patrons of the Durwood school
district in this county will make an
effort 10 build brick school house
of two stories.

patrons Of the two Durwood districts

carter county and new Durwood 10
Gated IN Marshall county could be
consolidated and an effort was mad
TO nave the two districts consolidate
but this was not successful, so the
patrons residing in this county con

brick building.

school districts vote bonds Is meet

IN DISTRICT COURT
HEARING IN PROCEEDINGS IN
CASE OF WEsTHEIMER EFT
AL vs.. MCLAUGHLIN.

Judge SuIwell II Russell OF the
district court WIS engaged yestcr-
day afternoon in hearing case on
the equity side Of the court that is an
unusual proceeding in legal affairs
and such as rarely ever occurs, where
in both sides OF the court, the law and
equity side are called in. The nature
of the proceedings are what is t,rn-
ed supplementary proceedings coupled
with an attachment. i'm suit TO re-
cover on a judgment that Is sued for
The case was filed late Friday after
noon and the attachment and supple
mentary pro rodings filed late last
night
The facts Of the case as gathered
from the petition fled are these:
Max Wcstheimer, David Daube. Sim
ON Westhelmer L. f. Graham, J. c.
Graham and +. b. Conrad purchased
certain piece of land from one Lille
Mclaughlin for which the plaintiffs
paid the sum of $1,000. The defend
ant, Lille Mclaughlin. is an Indian
citizen and filed on the land which
was contested after the sale had been
made which was subsequent to the
defendants having her restrictions
removed. The defendant, Lille Nc.
Laughlin, 50 the petition alleges, al
lowed the contest case to 20 by de-
fault although she had given war
ran,y deed to the purchasers OF the
premises, then in dispute The war.
ranty deed contained clause which
guaranteed TO the plaintiffs good
title against the world. The petition
fuTthcr alleges that the defendant
entered into a collusion with other
parties to defraud the plaintiffs out
of the money so paid, by thus allow
ing the contest suit to go against her
without interposing a defense. The
action was brought to recover from
the defendant the sum of $1,000 or
title TO the land paid for.
Subsequent events proved that the
defendant had in her possession a
sum of money sufficient to satisfy at
least part Of the judgment which she
was about to hide from the coVr' and
thus defeat the judgment.
The plaintiffs hearing OF this and
after having secured sugicien' evil
dence, had issued writ of attach
ment attaching the funds. which
could not be found Thcreupon the
plaintiffs filed a petition, known in
legal circles as supplementary pro-
ceedings That is a petition requir.
ing the defendant to appear in court
and answer questions that would
throw light upon the location of the
funds hidden.

tary proceedings took place yesterday
afternoon, s. 7. Bledsoe representing
the plaintiffs and A. c. Cruce the de.
iendant The defendant was exam.
ined and the case argued. During the
course of the proceedings, the court
found out where the sum OF sl,lOO
was located and the defendant made
