in preceding issues, we published an
advertisement asking "Who Should Be
the Next Governor of Idaho, and

answer to the question. In reply we
received 81 articles, and 6S5 coupons

In addition to asking for the opin-
to secure a poll of the press of this
state, writing to each newspaper, and
inclosing d. postcard upon which the
editor was requested to indicate his
choice. The result of this poll was
very disappointing. Only 35 Of the 1865
papers addressed replied at all, and IL
of the 35 advised us that they did not
care to express an opinion at this
time. Evidently the remaining 1870

New York, June 15.--Preliminar v
negotiations between heads OF the
Big Four" railway brotherhoods and
the national conference committee of
the railways came TO end to-day. The
railroads refused the unions demands
and suggested arbitration by the In
terstate Commerce Commission or by
umpires appointed under the New

A. r. Garfetson, grand chief of the
order OF Railway Conductors, and
spokesman for the union, refused
these suggestions. Even II the offers

at the present time There is nothing
for us to do but to go back to the
men. They will never go into an ar

principles that deprive them from SELL

Had a proposition come from the

would have been power vested here TO

about forty days for strike vote. and
that he would notify the railroad
heads when 1t was completed. He OBJ

in operating methods and large ex-

which your proposals involve The
present rates and rules are largely the
result OF recent arbitration awards

estimates indicate that to accept your
proposals would increase the cost of
operation of the railroads approx
mately one hundred millions dollars

borne by the public.
