however, those who took it very
much to heart.
In ways above outlined the gov.
error of I h state necessarily
creates some antagonisms aud these
persons are very busy at this time
trying to bring out an opposing
candidate. Several ambitious men
have listened to their pleadings
and a few of them have come into
the limelight only to remain for a
few days and then retire gracefully
from the contest. These candi-
dates were worthy men in most
cases and under more favorable
conditions might become strong
candidates for the position, but
their retirement is a high compli-
ment to Governor Haines and
shows the hold he has upon the
confidence of the people. John M.
Haines has made good as COVER
nor. He has held the expenses
down, has espoused every worthy
cause, and has given this state a
clean, busiuess-like administration.
In this connection an amusing in
stance has transpired in that Rep
resentative Ferguson of Bannock
county has come out in an open
letter asking that the governor
retire from the race. 1t is hardly
necessary to remark that the colonel
became disgruntled during the legis-
lative session over some matter of
legislation or legislative procedure
in which the governor did not
agree with the Bannock statesman.
Mr.. Ferguson S open letter is sim
ply an explosion of personal venom
and gall and has only served to
create quite little amusement in
circles where the political situation
is understood and the colonel's
personal characteristics are we'll
known.

DEVELOPMENTS
Boise Correspondent Sees in Haines a
Winning Candidate for Governor
Of Idaho
FRENCH TO WITHDRAW IS RUMOR
But Congressman Will Ask Reelection
to the House

Boise, May IA. - (SpeciaD- 1t
is something out of the ordinary
when Boise cannot produce a new
political sensation. Especially is
this true as the time approaches
for the primaries and the aspirants
for state positions begin to line up
their forces. AS a sample it was
reported on The streets yesterday
that Congressman Burton L French
was about to retire from the sena-
torial race and announce his can
didacy for election to congress. OF
course, the senatorial election is
the big event of this year, and with
four such strong men as Ailshie,
Brady, Gooding and French in the
field there are bound to be spec
tacular instances and the with
drawal of any of these men would
cause a genuine sensation. The re-
port that Mr.. French is to with
draw cannot be verified at the time
this communication is written.
The gubernatorial situation con-
tinues to be interesting in that
Governor Haines still has the field
to himself, although there continue
to be rumors of opposing candi-
dates. No man can hold the posi-
ton as governor of the state of
Idaho, or any other state, without
creating some antagonisms. In the
matter of legislation, senators and
representatives come to the capital
with local interests at heart, and
both they and their constituents
feel that their local proposition is
the biggest thing going. 1t some
times happens that these local in
terests do not fit in with the gen
eral scheme of state government.
For instance, it requires the hard
est kind of watchfulness and care
to keep down the burden of ex-
pense, and these matters of local
interest usually require an appro-
priation and they are, therefore,
burden upon the taxpayers of the
whole state. Of course the COVER
nor has to oppose and sometimes
veto some of these propositions. 1t
is probable Governor Haines saved
the taxpayers of the state a million
and a half dollars in bond issues
and cash appropriations by vetoing
some bills and giving his individ-
ual disapproval of others to parties
who had intended to push them.
1t is altogether probable that in
many cases the governors sugges-
tions were not taken kindly, but if
the taxpayers understood the ex-
tent of these proposals TO draw
money out of the state treasury
they would approve his course
with one accord. However, it
does not matter how meritorious
the governor course may have
been. In pursuing such a course
he is bound to create antagonisms.
Take the case of the Public Utili-
ties Commission. There were three
commissioners to be appointed.
The governor had more than $50
applications on file. Nearly all of
these were worthy men but he
could select only three. The re-
suit was that a few of those whom
the governor was unable TO appoint
took it as personal affront when
nothing of the kind was intended
1t does not matter that the MANY
who had in applications appreci-
ated the governors position and
are still his friends, There were,

to Lang the next day, who kept
her the rest of the winter, later
deciding to hold her until the
balance due him on the animal
and the cost of her keep was paid
by Wright, Guhr, learning of
this, asked Huhrow if he could get
the COW and keep her as. security
for the Wright account, Buhrow
advised him, so he alleges, that he
could get the COW by paying Lang
what he asked, but if at any time
Wright should offer Guhr what
Guhr had paid Lang for the COW,
Guhr would have to surrender the
COW to Wright without being paid
for the merchandise. Acting upon
this advice Guhr obtained posses
sion of the COW. 1t now trans
pires that Wright had given a bill
of sale of the COW to his mother
previous to the action by Guhr
and therefore, so it is alleged, the
cow was not subject to attach
meDt for a bill of Wright S.
Buhrow alleges that the bill of sale
was not recorded until later, and
is therefor of no value. This
Dore denies and states that the
bill of sale was on record, that the
defendants knew it was and that
they committed a crime in taking
possession of the cow without first
obtaining the necessary lie G a |
authority.
Guhr Swears Out Complaint
AS an outgrowth of the COM
plant sworn out by Dore, there
develops a charge of perjury
against Dore, sworn to by Guhr.
Guhr has sworn out two complaints
against Dore in which he alleges
that Dore committed perjury on
two occasions-thef first time when
he swore to the complaint against
Guhr in which he stated that on
May 9th the COW and calf were
in Boulder precinct and in Guhr' S
possession. The complaint states
that it is material to determine
whether or no the animals were in
Boulder precinct, and states that
Dore knew they were not and thus
swore to what was false. A war
rant was issued on this complaint
Wednesday, and the preliminary
hearing is set for next Monday
morning at 10 o'clock in Justice
Wade's court.
The second complaint sworn to
by Guhr against Dore, alleges that
Dore in swearing to the criminal
complaint against Guhr aud Buh-
row again committed perjury; that
the COW and calf were not in the
state of Idaho at the time alleged,
that they are now and have been
for several months in the state of
Montana, and that Dore commit
ted wilful perjury in swearing to a
statement he knew to be false. No
warrant has been issued on this
complaint, and no action will be
taken until after the first case is
determined.

WHO STOLE THE
BOSSY COW?
To Whom Does She Now Belong, and
Has Anyone Committed Bold,
Bad Crime?
THAT IS THE PUZzLINC QUESTION
Dore Charges Guhr and Buhrow With
Larceny. and Guhr Hits Back.


nal complaint against w. A. Guhr,
manager of the LENA Mercantile
company, of Lenia, and c.. A.
Buhrow, an attorney of Boomers
Ferry, charging them with the
larceny of a certain COW and calf,
which, the complainant alleges, is
the property of his wife, Mary A.
Dore, and which is valued at $50.
The case is set for preliminary
hearing in Justice Kent's court on
tomorrow afternoon.
The Compartments Story
The question of the ownership
of the bovine animal and her off
spring, together with the attendant
mplications, makes a story of
unusual interest, and the deter
mination of said ownership may
arouse a peck of trouble. According
to the complainant w. A. Guhr,
on or about April 18th, unlawfully
secured possession of the cow and
calf and placed them in the posses
sion of Guhr's brother-in-law, one
Coates, who lives across the line in
Montana. This was done, so the
complainant alleges, upon the
advice of Guhr's attorney, G.. A.
Buhrow, thereby involving Buhrow
in the crime of larceny by having
advised Guhr to take such unlaw
full action. The complainant also
alleges that later when Mrs. Dore
sent her son, o. A. Wright, after
the COW, that Coates falsely stated
that Guhr held papers giving him
possession of the animal, whereup-
on Wright departed, without the
cow. Learning that this statement
was false, as is alleged, Wright
was again sent after the COW
and had gotten nearly to the
state line with her when he was
stopped by Montana officials, Guhr
in the meantime having secured
papers on a writ of attachment
brought to collect a bill against
Wright, who had previously owned
the COW and who Guhr maintained,
still owned her. The COW and
calf are now being held by the
constable of Troy township, Mon
tana, and Mrs. Dore is bringing
action in Montana to secure possess
ion of them.
The Defendants Account
Upon being interviewed, c.. A.
Buhrow gave in substance the
following version of the affair.
Said Wright had been given mer-
chandise by the Lenia Mercantile
Co., and Guhr, the company man
ager, becoming dissatisfied, placed
the account in Burrows hands for
collection. Buhrow, so he alleges,
found that Wright had no property
except what was exempt from
attachment and was unable to
collect the bill. Later, Guhr
learned of a certain COW and calf
said to belong to Wright. This
COW, Buhrow states, was at that
time in the possession of one
Lang, living in Montana. Lang
had sold the COW to Wright, receiv-
ing part cash and a note for the
balance. AS winter came on, so
the defendant alleges, Wright failed
to provide food and shelter for the
animal and she went back to the
Lang ranch. Lang finally took her
up, notifying Wright to get her.
Wright did so but the cow returned

I'AMOREDEI TIRE RE-
HAS REPETITION
Fashionable Monday Night Audi.
ence Gives II UnquestiOnable
Stamp of Approval.

"LAmore del Tire Re" tho new opers
by Beneli and Montemezzi, had its first
repetition at the Metropolitan Opera
House last night. n II is a proof OF
excellence I'm an opera TO win the APP
prevail Of Monday night audience. then
that excellence was abundantly demon
strated on this occasion. Proof Of a GER
tain kind the favor Of the most arstocratio
and fashionable gatherings of the week
certainly is. for upon that favor largely
depends the future OF all the new works
brought forward at an institution which
exists 10 a great extent because OF the
place which 1t fills in the social life OF
the city. II was many years before MI
Grau ventured TO open season with
Tristan una Isolde" and there has
always been more than n lurking suspi-
cion that the presence OF the great
favorites OF the day had more 30 do with
the choice than admiration for the work
itself among the fashionable patrons OF
the establishment. ~ was, therefore, an
incident OF suspicious augury that the
first Monday audience that heard the
new work placed most unmistakabie
stamp OF approval upon II.
That fine repute for the work has also
reached the mass of music lovers was al
tested by the audience, which was az
large as the theatre could wcl hold IL
is already famous. and its fame VIII grow.
for every hearing lifts its strong beauty
into a higher light Last night the en-
thusiasm manifested itself after the first
act which was rather obviously received
on the first performance During the see
ond act the audience was wholly under
the thradom OF the drama, and it Is not
an exaggeration to say that no such thrii.
of pathetic horror has passed through \
Metropolitan gathering since the first per-
Torrance OF Wagner's great love tragedy
as that which was experienced last night.
II was greater than on the first night. be-
cause the performance was finer. 1t was
indeed superlativcly fine on the part OF
all tho five persons concerned in it-Mss
Bori, Mr.. Fontana Mr.. Amato, Mr..
Didur and Signor Toscanini. who must
never be forgotten when the SUCCESS or
the work is recalled. There IS no need 20
reiterate the praise which was spoken
then; but it might be, in an intensified
key Their work unsteady and histrion-
ically, was OF the supreme order. All
concerned have obviously been inspired
by the opera. which is likely to be rccog-
nized soon as a masterpiece. Let that
suffice.
