ROOSEVELT We
TOES CENSUS BILL
Opposed to Spells System
Which it Recognizes

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.--The ma
tional census bill was vetoed today
by President Roosevelt, in special
message to congress setting forth in
detail his reasons and grounds for
taking that action with reference to
the measure. The message in part
is as follows:
1T is my judgment that the CEN
sus result should not be open to sus-
picion OF bias because Of personal or
political grants, and also that It shall
not be open to suspicion that 1t Is a
waste Of the peoples money or that
II is In any way fraudulent, and these
results II seems to me can not be ae-
complished by the present bill.
Section seven of the bill provides
that the appointment OF the force
whose business Il will be to take the
census. shall be under the spoils sys-
tenn. and there can be no other con-
truetion placed upon this provision
than that it intends to Danish CON-
petttive examinations. An additional
provision to the bill provides that the
employees shall be selected without
regard to political Affiliations. and
solely on their merits. but this can
only be done after competitive exam
nations BY a selection Of them from
the lists Of eligibies as provided b.
the civil service commission, and moi
under the spOils system as provided
BY the bill. and on these grounds
have deemed It my duty to veto It. ,

Kills Party Emblem Bill.

The Whitaker-Macbeth bill to
strike off the circle and party emblem
at the head of the official ballot was
unanimously killed, a majority of
the members of the senate voting for
Indefinite postponement. Macbeth
charged that the only reason the re-
publicans wanted to retain the party
emblem on the official ballot was be-
cause if it were stricken off there
would be no republican party. Hart
thought this was a good reason for
keeping it on.
The Won Harten employers liabil-
lily bill, relating to the protection OF
miners, the Bonners Ferry bridge Dill
and the Sweeley state parasite bill
were discussed at length and referred
to the committee of the whole for
passage.
One bill was introduced by Senator
Jordan, providing for the control and
organization of the national militia
or gaurd. and providing for an appro-
priation OF $35, 900 for its support.
State Treasurer Hastings was call
ed upon the carpet in the house TINS
morning and his appearance caused
a sensation. He was asked to eX-
plain the pending collections account
bill, which he did. Shaw of Ada coun-
ty created considerable amusement
by taking the treasurer's remarks as
personal.
A bill was presented asking for az
appropriation of $50, goo for the sup
port of the orphans home.

GPills Land Board

BOISE, Idaho, Feb. 5.-The house
today in committee OF the whole
killed the anti-pass bill. Although it
vas one of the pledges of the republi-
can platform the committee recon-
mendation that it be indefinitely post
pOned was adopted, with only three
republicans opposing it. All of the
democrats voted against the report.
The house also killed the bill CIV
ing county printing to the lowest bid
der without reference to residence,
and the bill to repeal the poll-tax
law. The state board of law exam
iners bill was in effect defeated by
being recommitted. Favorable ac-
ton was taken in committee of the
whole on the bill relating to Twin
Falls and Bonner counties to be first
class with an amendment including
Lincoln and Lemhi counties.
Kerns Hits State Board.
Individual memebers of the SEN
ate charged members of the state
land board with being Ignorant" of
the state lands they have and are at
tempting to lease, particularly the
iron ore lands leased to G. w Thomp-
son, by Senators Kerns. of Shoshone
county in the senate this morning
Kerns went step further and claim
ed the ignorance manifested should
be a warning to the people of this
state about allowing the board to
have absolute control of state lands.
These charges were made when the
senate discussed the Sweeley state
park bill, providing for a site at Sho-
shone falls.

knew he could not leave a detachment to guard
the wagons because it would weaken his force TO
a point which would make victory over the reds
practically impossible.
Baldwin went to the teamsters and said: Il
can't leave a force with you as a guard, and
you've got to charge with US. l want you to put
your teams in the center of the charging line
and make those mules fly straight into the mid
die of things"
1t probably was the first time in history that
mule drivers. mules and wagons had been ordered
to participate as an offensive part of a cavalry
charge. The infantry on this occasion was mount
ed. The mule drivers lost all sense of the danger
in the fun of the thing. They told the lieutenant
that with good cussing," and with good flashing,
they could lead the cavalry a mile.
The 500 Indians were on a plateau with sides
shelving gradually down to the plains. Baldwin's
plan was nothing less than the seemingly reckless
one Of crossing the open with his men and
wagons, sweeping up the incline and driving the
enemy, if he could, or fighting him hand to hand,
if he must.
The horsemen rode up in line with the four
mule teams abreast at the lines center. There
was a word of command a trumpet note or two,
and the line swept across the plain with the
mules on a keen jump, with black snake whips
cracking and the drivers saying things which a
mule understands.
The reds turned loose at the advancing hun
dred. Men and horses on the right and left went
down here and there, but the mules in the center
~AAe oA1 Ah6
behind them swept on with never a scratch. The
reds on the plateau kept up their fusillade. Up
up. up the incline, the mules leading by yards
all the way, swept the blue detachment. The
regulars were daring and fighting as American
regulars always dare and fight.
One of the teamsters afterwards swore that he
could see Chief Gray Boards eyes popping with
fear at the sight Of the charging mules. The
level of the plateau was reached and horses,
men, mules and wagons went hurtling forward.
The teamsters were standing, cracking their
whips and bowling. Infantrymen and cavalrymen
caught the spirit of the thing and howled in uni
son.
Those four mule teams went straight through
the heart OF the big band of Gray Boards Kio-
was and Araphaoes. Meantime every carbine and
every Long Tom was cracking, and with one last
volley the warriors of the allied tribes fed, leav-
ing their dead and wounded and their white cap
tives on the field.
Lieut.. Baldwin found that the two white girl
prisoners were uninjured, and not long after the
fight they were restored to their parents. For
this charge and for this victory Lieut.. Baldwin
was breveted q captain and was given a medal

Frank d. Baldwin has been in so many fights
for his country that the counting of them as
sumes the proportion Of a mathematical problem.
For years upon years after the civil war in which
he distinguished himself time and again, he fought
nearly every form of Indian that the plains of
the United States has produced. There was one
fight in which Baldwin was engaged which de-
serves a place in song and story, If some song
or story writer could be found equal to the &C.
casion. In the days of the campaign of which
this fight was a feature there was only one bar
on Baldwins shoulder, for he was a junior first
lieutenant of infantry. The campaign was a long
one and the fights followed fast and followed
faster.
While on detached service in Newport, KY, in
June, 1874, Baldwin heard that his regiment was
to be ordered, under Col. Nelson A. Miles, to make
AN expedition into the Indian territory. The lieu
tenant went to the front as fast as a train and a
horse could carry him. When he reported for
duty Miles, who knew Baldwin's record in the
civil war, put him in command OF the
scouts of the expedition, a command that
was composed partly Of whites and partly
of Indians.
With his scouts back of him Lieut.. Baldwin
had a dozen engagements, one after another,
with the confederated bands of Cheyennes, Kio-
was, Arapahoes and the southern Comanches.
The one fight, however, which for picturesque
ness stands out most prominently in the battle
list, did not take place until after Baldwin had
been in the field for many months. 1t was the
fight of his life, not in the engagements size nor
vet, perhaps, in it's Importance, but in
what an officer who saw 1t declares
to have been "its howlingly funny fea-
lures"
1t was picturesque and it was funny all right,
but it was dangerous as well, and Baldwin lost
some of his men, and took his own life In his
hands 20 times before he won his splendid victory
against tremendous odds. The daring OF the
thing was recognized by Col. Miles, by the gen
nsral commanding the department, and by the
congress of the United States, which gave Bald
win his second medal of honor for his work on
that day.
BY one of the military freaks of for
tune, Baldwin. ahough only a lieutenant.
found himself in November. 1874, In CON-
mand of d company of the Fifth infantry,
ID troop of the Sixth cavalry, and OF
IL of the scouts of the organisation with
which he had originally taken the field.
He had about 100 men all told when
he reached the banks of 'McClellan's Creek.
Tex. There he found IN front OF him
fully 500 Indian warriors splendidly armed
and apparently Iysting for a night. Every
.army oficer who afterwards learned the circum-
