Won't Be Happy

For weeks the Daily Crouch has
been begging to have some one ar
rested for the many open viola
tons of the anti-saloon law which
it claims has been turned into a
farce. The officers have begged
for some of these knowing ones
to swear out warrants. but never
one would do 1t. The first of
the week they succeeded in getting
sufficient evidence for an import
ant arrest and 10, the poor Crouch,
is now sorer than ever. The ar
rested party happens to be a spec
ial friend of the editor and one OF
the dry leaders of the city,
and the howl which the Crouch
sent up sounded like the dying
wall of a whipped pup. 1t was
real rude of the sheriff to get
the parties that helped make the
law. so they could profit by its
violation. However it will make
the sheriff go some If he can ar
rest them as fast as the Crouch
can change sides onn the question.

From Glenns Ferry to Lewiston

Weiser, Feb. 8.-Among in
teresting visitors in the city are
two miners, p. Wright and A.
Lawrence, who are making the
journey down Snake river in
flat bottom boat from Glenns Fer
ry enroute to Lewiston. They
are making the journey by easy
stages as is evidenced by the
fact that they left Glenns
Ferry November 18th, and ar
rived in Weiser a few days
ago. They report great sport
shooting the rapids. They have
made occasional stops to prospec'
the hills. The most dangerous
rapids on the entire trip are Wild
Horse rapids in the famous Box
Canyon about 60 milesbelow Hunt
ington. They stopped to secure
more information concerning these
rapids. The walls of this canyon
are of almost solid rock rising
hundreds of feet on either side
with not a safe landing place the
entire length of many miles. a
number of outfits have met dis
aster in this canyon and it may
be these sturdy miners will decide
to abandon the undertaking.

SCRAP OVER
AMENDMENT
Looks Bad for Road and

Prohibition.

Boise. Feb. 1O.-The Connor fac
ton won it's fight against the pas
sage Of H. j. R. No. 5 which pro-
yides for the submission of con-
stitutional amendment abolishing
the office of immigration commits
sioner and the fight was one Of
the most interesting and technical
parliamentary law encounters tina
has taken place thus far in the ses-
sion. bE
The adherents of the measure
fired the first gun when Brown
of Adams in accordance with the
notice he had given the previous
day, moved that his motion to re-
consider the vote by which the
resolution was killed be put. Ko-
elsch of Ada was in the speakers
chair, Connor Immediately made
his point of order that since no.
tice of motion to reconsider had
been given on the day the original
vote was taken, the resolution
could not under the rules be recon
sidered.
Koelsch upheld the point of or
der. Storey of Ada moved that
all rules interfering with the re-
consideration of the vote be sus-
pended. Koelsch first held the
motion out of order and then
changed his ruling, putting the
motion.
The roll call was taken but be-
fore the result was announced a
motion was put for a call of the
house. The friends of the meas
ure had seen that they lacked one
vote of the two-thirds necessary
to obtain a reconsideration.
Connor made a point of order
that a call of the house was ou!
of order during the progress OF
a roll call. While the point OF
order was being debated Hunt
came in and voted for the recon
sideration and Henderson who ha'
voted against it changed his vote
to the affirmative. The motor
carried, Al to IL, and the plea fol
a roll call of the house was aban
doned.
Indications were that the reso
luton would thereupon pass, bu
at that point the Connor faction
made a play that resulted in tn
death of the resolution so far a
the house is concerned.
The resolution was read an
