Senator Stewart luslsted to night that the attempt to reopen the boundary case in the I'nlted States Su preme Court is not so much because of the loss of Sand Island by this State In the- original decision as on account of the obscurity left In the matter of the boun dary above Three Tree Point. It Is de- fired to have the Supreme Court pass upon the boundary question as it affects the entire length of the Columbia where the river marks the boundsry between the two States. It Is also claimed that If the present HecL-i'm Is allowed to ptand that a.s soon as Sand Island be comes an Integral part of Oregon. th boundary line will run inland and the State of Washington will lose Its concur rent Jurisdiction over the pilotage at the mouth of the Columbia. It Is asserted that the old channel between Sand Isl and and the mainland Is now so shallow that It can be waded with hish rubber boots and that before a great lapse of time a sand spit will connect tho Island with the Washington shore. The conference tomorrow will be for the purpose of deciding upon what shall be asked of the Legislature. It is prob able that the only thing that can be done will be to secure an appropriation to pay th" expenses of a trip by the Attorney General to Washington to appear before the Supreme Court and ask for a rehearing.

Although the House is In recess un til Monday, there Is great activity among the members relative to com mittee assignments. Committees have not been announced, this belns expect ed to occur Monday. It Is claimed that the election of Speaker Clagrstone was brought about through a combination and that chairmanships were promised to thope helping; to secure the neces sary Clagrstone votes. Among those entering the combination was Thompson, of Canyon County, who was promised the chairmanship on coun ty boundaries. Other members from Can yon County were not considered. Thomp son, wiio comes from the county : seat, has a county division light on his hands. Representatives Patch and Duvall. who are also from Canyon County, want to divide the county, so as to give their towns, Xampa and Payette, county seats. Thy are making a strong fight against Thompson being given a county boundary chairmanship. So far. Speaker Clagstone has refused to breaK his promise. Thompson claims that the proposal to divide Canyon County is without merlii that it. would increase taxation, and in event that a local option law Is passed s promised in the platform, that division of the county, would leave Nam pa to vote "wet"' instead of "dry." as will be the case with the present Canyon County. He contends that this Is the oniy reason why Nampa wants County division, and that the Representatives from Payette are working in opposition to the widely dechn-ed wish of their home people. Tho l-nate today completed considera t'on of the new revised codes, and passed the same, which will go to Governor Brady for his signature tomorrow.

BAKER CITY, Or., Jan. 8.-(Special.) Transformed from one of the liveliest mining towns of record to a ranch where the green alfalfa and timothy will be grown. Is the meaning of a business deal that was closed here today, affecting al most the entire townslte of Sumpter. The old Sumpter Townslte Company composed of ex-Governor Mcintosh, of British Columbia, General C. S. Warren. of Butte. Mont., and W. C. Calder. of Baker City, today deeded all their hold Ings in Sumpter. comprising 650 acres of platted ground, to a corporation known as the Sumpter Land Company. The new concern is composed of Frank S. Bailie, manager of the Columbia Gold Mine: John L. Rand, an attorney of Baker City, and H. M. Allen, a capitalist of Sumpter. Instead of attempting to boom the mountain town and sell the land Just ac quired, the new company has made ar rangements for sufficient water, and will turn It Into a tract of irrigated land for the production- of farm products. This practically closes Sumpters career as a mining town, according to the opinion of many. Very few mines are running in the district, and the spirit of mineral- seeking that developed the town seems o have Biven way to a desire for tilling the soil. STOLE FOR GIRL IS CHARGE Evan J.
