be capslzed, and in that predicament
he is helpless. His manner of lying

all are, managed to tumble into

a camel can only get up again If 1t
can arrange its feet conveniently I'M

In this case it was not so. The ami

BOISE. Idaho, Feb. 1.-THE sem

the house for final disposition. will
not be passed. Within two days the
forces of the lower branch have crys-
talized.
An attempt will be made. It is stat
ed. to prevent the proposed enact
ment from being taken into a COM
mittee OF the whole by what have
been termed the radical members.
The purpose is TO preclude. II pos
sible, any amendments which win
cause another delay.
To meet such an effort the conser-
natives are lining up TO compel the
document being taken nto com
mlttee of the whole. where It may be
remodeled to conform with their de
signs. The same men who endeav-
ored to recommit the house liquor
bin to the joint committees from
which il emanated are involved In
the new maneuver. They were de-
teated upon the previous occasion by
