Land legislation is certain to taks

in progress. Bills for the continual

selection and administration of state
lands, are now pending in both the
senate and house.
Yesterday Senator w. w. Pace of
Graham county, introduced S. b. SO,
making an appropriation for paying
the salaries and expenses on the land
commission. This morning a similar
measure was introduced in the house
by the lands committee.
Neither of these bills contains more
than a few of the provisions of the
land commission measures that were
pending when the last session ended.
Two bills had been introduced 20 pro

commissioner instead of three, and

RESULT OF MUNICIPAL ELECTION
Compromise Ticket Went Through With
One Exception.

The municipal election held Tuesday
was a rather quiet affair as had been
anticipated since the compromise was
effected which had for its purpose the
avoidance of fight and the placing in
the field of but one ticket which would
be satisfactory to all. Less than $50
votes were east and the ticket went
through as provided with the excep-
tion Of councilman in the Third ward.
The men agreed upon for aldermen from
this ward were John Eimers and Tom
Turner, but dark horse was brought
out in the person Of Charles Stuttle-
berg who was elected over Turner by
majority of seven votes. j. Frank
Sims received a total of 242 votes and
ran ahead of the ticket. The vote of
Taylor, candidate for clerk and police
judge, and Bradbury, for treasurer, we
are unable to get at this time but they
were given vote in keeping with the
others.
The returns by wards are as follows
FIRST ward-Mayor: Sims, Sc; Coun-
cilmen: Dyer, 81; Smith, Sc.
Second ward = Mayor: Sims, 81;
Councilmen: Meader, ss; Sweet, IS.
Third ward--Mayor: Sims, 80; Coun.
cilmen: Eimers, 80; Stuttleberg, 55;
Turner, 4S.
The new administration will take
over the city government the sixth of
May and while nothing definite has
been given out by Mayor elect Sims it
is rumored that some radical changes
will be made.

TWO men PERISH
FORFEIT THEIR LIVES TO THE
WINTER ELEMENTS.
NO TRACES OF THEM YET
One Last Seen January First.-Other
Man Started Out on Trip
March Fourteen.

SO far reported two men have beer
lost in the wilds Of the Bitter Roo,
mountains of Idaho county this winte,
and the probabilities are that both OF
them have forfeited their lives in the
battle with the elements. One has been
lost from civilization since January Isl
and there is little doubt of him HAVING
persisted. 1t was on that date that
Alec Mcdonald, an aged miner Of the
Warren section, left for the home OF
Frank Jordan, sixteen miles to the
North. The snow was heavy and the
weather bitter cold. According to re-
ports Mcdonald was well supplied with
liquor and the presumption is that he
iK bibed too freely and lost his way
Searching parties have covered the
county but no trace Of the old gentle
man have been found and doubtless he
fell from some mountain crag to the
deep snow below.
On March 14th, Louis Adkins left
his home near Marshall Freeman Is
place in the Little Salmon River for the
ostensible purpose of visiting his game
traps and has not since been seen or
heard from. The general opinion is
that he has perished from cold or in a
snowslide.
Mr.. Adkins lived alone on his home
stead, and during the winter months,
spent most of his time hunting and
trapping. He had line of traps ex-
tending over a wide range of the hills
between his place, Hazard Creek, Elk
Creek and the Big Salmon. Three or
four days after his disappearance some
of his neighbors became alarmed over
his continued absence and organized a
search party. His course was followed
for several miles, when, darkness COM
ing on the search was postponed until
the next day. That night snow fell to
the depth of 10 or IL inches, completely
hiding his trail, and although efforts
have since been made to rescue him, not
trace can be found. The weather has
been cold and stormy and it is feared
that he has perished or been overwhelm-
ed by snOwslide.
He hand no known relatives here, but
is supposed to have brother living in
Wasco, Washington. News of his dis
appearance has been forwarded to the
brother and another search party is now
in the hills trying to find him.

period of sixteen years, John Norwood

many years, is most capable gentle
man who has made many friends

ness ways with the public. Mr.. Nor
wood is among the best citizens Of the
town, man of fine character and an
excellent judgment and his resignation
was reluctantly accepted by the bank.
On account of i'll health, due to close
confinement, he decided to seek en-
ployment that would permit more out

fill the vacancy the directors have se-
