FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD
Back Pay Bill Passed at Boise. :
$7o3.o5 for Company E.

The appropriation for the militia
expenses came in for its share of dis
cussion in the house at Boise last
Saturday. 1t was moved to cut the
appropriation from $50, 900 to $40, 900.
Sanborn created quite furore by
stating that while he was 10 Wallace
last summer the national guard was
called there to fight forest fires. He
declared that they became drunken
and played baseball and fought very
little fire.
Davis Of Oneida stated 10 refuta
tiOn that the national guard never
was in Wallace last summer. Feath-
erstone said that the soldiers there
were the "Brownsville niggers."
After many amendments the ap-
preparation was cut to $45,O This
is SIS, 900 more than the appropriation
made two years ago.
The appropriation Of $10,353 80 for
the back pay Of the national guard
for attendance at the encampments
Of 1907 and 1908. was inserted Ia the
general appropriations bill, which
passed.
OF this back pay, the sum of $793-
.95 is due members of Company 4 of
Rathdrum, who attended the maneuv-
ers at American Lake and the target
practice encampment at Fort Wright
in 1908. The failure OF the state to
pay promptly caused great deal of
dissatisfaction among the enlisted
men and as consequence many have
quit the service atythe expiration OF
the terms of their enlistment. Be
ginning 10 1909 the state has been
paying the men for. attending en-
campments, and the appropriation to
square the accounts of 1907 and 1908,
together with the fulflllment OF
promises for the future, are expected
to overcome the dissatisfaction
caused by past neglect, and to grad
ually restore the old time confidence
of the members of the national guard
in the states integrity.

ELECT EDELBLUTE COLONEL
Rathdrum Man Elevated to Com
mand of Idaho Regiment.

w. II. Edelblute OF Rathdrum, ma
jor Of the Second infantry Of the ma
tional guard of Idaho, was, March 4,
elected to flll the vacancy made by
the dismissal OF Robert Lansdon by
former Governor Brady as colonel OF
the Second infantry. There are 80
officers in the state who are eligible
to vote for the Office and of these %
cast ballots. 1t Is understood that
there was decisive majority In favor
OF Major Edelblute, though the
canvassing board refuses to disclose
the result Of the balloting.
The election ends the long fight
which Lansdon and his friends have
made for his reinstatement in the
militia of the state.
The trouble had its birth in the re-
fusal Of Lansdon to appear before the
board of examinati IN OF the national
guard and to take the prescribed ex.
animation. At the command of the
governor. A. M. Rowe, then adjutant
general, issued an order CO December
10, 1910, which held that the failure
and refusal of Lansdon to take the
examination constituted, in the
opinion of the board, a-flagrant disc.

was consequently discharged from thu

North Idaho won notable VIC
tory in the amendment OF the
apportionment bills SO that Clear
water and Lewis counties are
combined in one senatorial district
and awarded the 24th senator per-
mitted under the constitution. On
this point the fight was short,
sharp and decisive. The victory
OF the north was all the greater for
the reason that the rules had to be
suspended; unanimous consent Sc
cured on some minor points and
the bill passed finally under high
pressure and under suspension of
the rules.
Senator kerns, Senator Day and
Senator Potts made hard fight
for the north. They showed that
the six counties Of the north paid
40 per cent Of the taxes and
possessed practically one-third Of
the population, yet they had but
fourth of the senate. Senator St.
Clair fought valiantly for Bonne-
vile and held that i, had as large
a population as the other three
new counties created at this sts-
sion. He had agreed with Senator
Mitchell, he SAID, that neither
should claim this extra senator,
and to be fair to all sections, he
thought none Of the new counties
should be recognized and that the
number Of senator's remain at 23.
He was voted down and the 24th
district created. On the final
passage Of the bill there were l3
ayes, 9 nays, absent.

Eleventh SESSION OVER
Solons Worked Tour Days
Beyond Limit.
APPROPRIATED 100000
Governor Hawley Dissatisfied,
Threatens Extra Session.

Threatens Extra Session.
Both houses OF the Idaho legis-
lature adjourned at Boise Monday,
March 6. One OF the last acts was
to pass the new direct primary law,
eliminating the provision for party
declaration, the feature to which
Governor Hawley had objected.
The new law amends some of the
socalled worst features of the old
law.
Many bills were killed last Satur-
day, March 4. The members OF
the house devoted most Of the day
to hcrseplay, awaiting the action
OF the senate on certain bills. The
floor was Uttered with rubbish
thrown about by the members.
The general appropriation bill
was passed carrying So, 1873, 464, an
increase of $500, ,72o over two
years ago. In addition to this
bonds have been voted for the
state capitol to the amount OF
$3.50, 900 and for road and bridge
bills to the amount of over $22s,-
900.
Governor Hawley, dissatisfied
with the great increase Of appro-
priations 5000, 900 over those Of

tutional state tax limit of 10 mills
had been exceeded, considered the
advisability of Immediately calling
an extra session. 1t was shown,
however, that total tax levy Of
9H mills would meet the obliga-
/ tions imposed by the eleventh ses-
sion, and the governor finally
announced that he would not call
an extra session within 10 days or
two weeks. A meeting Of the
state board of equalization was
then called to 60 over the situation.
The investigation Of state land
board matters resulted in a ma
jority report that the charges
against the Gooding and Brady
administrations were not sustained.
In the general appropriation bill
the item for expenses OF the immi-
, grafton commissioner was reduced
from $50, 900 to $40, 900; the ex-
pense item for the state engineer
was increased $1,000, and the sec.
retary of state $4,000. The militia
item was reduced from $50, 900 te
$45, 900.
The house passed the senate
bill providing legislative reappor
tionment, giving Clearwater ane
Lewis counties a joint senator

COURT OF APPEALS
Decides Important Case to Rail-

Proceedings

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 5.-The Court
of Appeals to-day decided a case of
great Importance to railroads and in
their favor. The case was that of FL
len Riley against the Louisville, Hen
derson g. St. Louis Railroad Company,
from Davies county, and the court
holds that railroad can build a spur
track to dlstillerY and condemn pri-
vate property for the right of way for
the track. 1t was contended that as
the spur track was for the sole benefit
of the distillery the track was not such
as could come under the head of "pub-
lie use," and that 1t was unconstitu-
tional for the reason. The court says
the spur track does not belong to the
distillery, but to the railroad, and the
railroad is not restricted in it's use to
only such things for which the distillery
might wanted it used, but it comes UNI.
der the clause, "public use and there
fore the condemnation proceedings are
legal.
There was no complaint that the sum
awarded by the jury in payment for the
right Of way was not sufficient. Judge
Carroll wrote the opinion.

FROM GUBERNAT0RIAL RACE
A NEW MARVEL
IN MEDICINE
Serum Said to Have Cured Pneu-
monia in a Day and Tube
rcoIosis in Four Days
From the N. Y. sun

San Francisco, FEB. 2.-Rernark-
able and almost instantaneous cures
are said to have been made in severe
cases of tuberculosis, pneumonia and
typhoid fever at South Pacific Hospit-
al in the last month by new method
of treatment discovered by DIR. Schafer
of Bakersfield.
The principle is that the bacteria
throw off certain substances while grow
ing-poisns that are exuded to preser-
We the organisms life. 1t was DR.. Scha-
fer's idea that if these exudations could
be formed into serums capable of in
lection into human systems affected by
disease caused by like bacteria it
would have the effect of Immediately
arresting the bacterias growth.
Working on this principle DR.. w. B.
Coffee, DR. Samuel Gardner, DR.. Philip
King Brown and Dr. H. H. Gibbon
with TIE advice and assistance of DR..
Sohafer, inoculated nine Southern
Pacafc Hospital patients suffering from
pneumonia with liquid extract made
from metabolic products given off by
the pneumonia germ in the progress of
growth. In every case the patient was
cured, several of the cures being with
in twenty.four hours of the serum's in
lection.
A tuberculosis patient was pronoun-
ced cured within four days after the
Schafer remedy had been applied.
Similar success with typhoid fever is
reported.
Conservative practitioners who have
followed the experiments are astoun-
ded by the results accomplished and
declare that the Schafer treatment will
soon become universal in many diseas-
es which have resisted all methods of
treatment.
