BOI3E. Idaho. Jan. n. 8peclal It
now appears that Idaho, through the
census returns and the reapportionment
by Congress, will receive a second Rep
resentative In Congress through her ac
credited population of X5w0.
This will bring before the present ses
sion of the State Legislature the Inter
esting detail of dividing the State Into
lo Congressional districts, which divi
sion will stand until the year 192L

Fast Politics Likely.
There mill be soma fast politics played
In the districting of the state, as ap
pears from a cursory review of the sit
uation mith the members, a few of them,
of the present eleventh session with
whom I have conversed. There appears
to be a righteous apprehension against
the policy of creating a Congressional
district which might Insure the entire
control of the situation by the Mormon
vote, of which there Is practically SO.0UO
In the six southeastern counties or the
state. It Is reasoned that there should
be an apportionment of the population
Into these two districts, which would
place one portion of the vote with the
north and the other with the western
division of Idaho. The suggestion has
been made to place. Lemhi and Custer,
two non-Mormon counties, and Fremont
and Bingham, two Mormon counties,
with the six northern counties, leaving
Bannock. Bear Lake. Oneida and Cas
sia, the remaining four Mormon counties.
in a district with the southwest.
This would represent a division that
would give to the Gentile element In
the state the substantial control of the
situation at all times, unless additional
colonising should follow, which la not
probable.
JIanier's Friends Busy.
There are friends of the present Rep
resentative Hamer who are looking out
for such a division of the state as would
take easy care of his political fortunes.
On the fourth of March Hamer ends his
first and only term In the House from
Idaho. He was nominated at the Re
publican convention held here two years
ago last Summer, aga'nst French, who
as then the Congressman, and who was
presumed to have the rlnch on the
situation. Through a unique entangle
ment, however, the tables wera turned
In a night and a combination formed
which landed Hamer aa the nominee. He
was elected and made a brilliant record.
Hamer had been a practicing attorney
at St. Anthony, the seat of county gov
ernment of Fremont County, for fifteen
veers. He had served a term In the
House aa a Silver Republican, and hi
served aa a captain In the Philippine
War. Before coming to Idaho he had
ben a resident of Illinois and of the
neighborhood made famoua by the Dan
ville statesman. Joe Cannon. Congress
man Hamer's father was In fact a close
personal and political friend of the auto
cratic Speaker. When Hamer was nomi
nated. Uncle Joe wrote him a letter of
congratulation. When he was elected
I'ncle Joe wired him his appreciations
and when ha reached the capital, an un
known ahlD on a boundless sea. I'ncle
joe at a convenient time of leisure from
his presiding duties left his station and
amid the gase of bis admirers and his
opponent, but In a manner which at
tracted attention, went to a desk ad

arm In arm. to hla private office at the
rear.
Hamer Gets in lllglit.
This was a distinguished offering to
a new Congressman. It served aa an
advertisement among his colleagues
which money could not purchase or ora
tory arouse. Hamer was In and he was
In right.
Th'a friendship left Its Impress on
many acts which the young Congressman
from Idaho aavocatea ror nis peopie.
Hamer was successful beyond the fondest
expectations of his constituency.
But the Ingratitude of politics comes
to all who engage In It for any length
of time. Aa Hamer had caused French
to bite the dust at the Boise conven
tion, so French caused Hamer to bite
the dust In the Initial direct primary
election held August 13 of last year.
This was a surprise to almost every
Judge of political events! Hamer had
made such a good record in his accom-
nllshmenta that the various communi
ties which had felt the results of his
service seemed to be. lor him..
In this case, however, the deeds done
were used as the spade with which to
die Hamer's political grave. How did
Hamer do these things? was the uni
versal query. Through hla friendship
with Uncle Joe Cannon, was the uni
versal reply.

Industrial Demonstration Shows Re
markable Work Done.
CHEMAWA. Or.. Jan. 21. (Special.)
The tailoring department of the Che-
ma wa Indian School, under John r.
Knright. Instructor of the department.
gave an industrial demonstration of
what Is being dona In that department
of the school last evening. The In
dustrial advancement of young Indian
boys from 14 to 18 years of age was
shown. The pupils of the department
gave practical talks and demonstra
tions of what they were capable of
doing.
Kven the management of the school
were surprised at the ability shown by
young boys about IS years of age.
wbo were capable of cutting and mak
ing clothing aa good as the average
tailor, although they had been In the
department two years and less. Older
boys demonstrated that they could
take care of a "layout" as well as the
average Journeyman cutter. This de
partment of the Indian school has
turned out a large number of compe
tent mechanics, some of whom have
advanced to become merchant tailors
and are employing white Journeymen.

TECHNICAL POINT RAISED
Suit to Recover Misappropriated
Funds at Seaside Puzzling.
ASTORIA. Or- Jan. 21. (Special.)
A technical question of more than or
dinary Interest promises to rise In the
nit that the town of Seaside will
bring against the Union Guarantee
Association, which was the surety of
the late E. N. liennlnger, as Treasurer
of the town of Seaside, to recover
1794S.0. the amount which the report
of the experts show the late Treasurer
wss short In his accounts.
The bond given by the association
was to protect the municipality against
larceny or embezzlement on the part
of the official. The contention of the
defendant will be that as the funds
belonging to the municipality were
used for the benefit of the Seaside
Lumber St Manufacturing Company, a
corporation, the Treasurer did not ap
propriate tna rands for his own use,
therefore the act cannot be classed
either as larceny or embezzlement and
the bonding company thus cannot be
held for the ahortage. The plaintiff
will, however, contend Just as strongly
that the runds were misappropriated
and that this act constitutes embez
zlement.
PIONEER, '52, DROPS DEAD
James Moore Dies at Enterprise
While Talking to Son.
ENTERPRISE. Or.. Jan. 21. (Spe
cial.) James Moore, an Oregon pioneer
of 1852. and a veteran of the Indian
wars, dropped dead of heart disease
here Tuesday while talking to his son.
Mr. Moore waa born In Garrett Coun
ty. Kentucky, October 12, 1832. He
crossed the plains by ox team In 1852,
settling near Eugene. He lived for
many years In the Willamette Valley
and there married Mary Petrle. In 1SS0.

of whom and their mother survive.

Mr. Moore was a veteran of the In
dian wars, having served aa corporal of
company a. Oregon Mounted Volun
teers. He was a Mason.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Jan. 21. (Spe
cial.) It Is believed that no measure
will engage the serious attention of
the Washington Legislature more or
affect the Interests of the state at
large more than the employes' com
pensation bill. The commission ap
pointed by Governor Hay has sub
mitted Its report with a aran oi
bill. Members of the committee repre
sent both the employers and employes
in the state.
The Wll drawn by the commission is
aimiiAP to the law In effect In Germany
and other countries of Continental Eu
rope. It Is maintained that the law
has given entire satisfaction m uer-
any and has p-rovea Deneiiciai io em
ployer and employe alike.
Arguments advances lor xne p8
of the bill are based oil statistics
showing that sums of money paid by
the employer for employes' liability
Insurance have been little. If -any. In
excess of 20 per cent of the amounts
that have actually reached the Injured
employe or hla family. In Washington
the sum paid for llaDinty insurance
last year Is said to-have been more
than $600,000, of which nearly $000,000
was absolutely wasted.
One Ont of 1 1 Fought.
It la estimated that one accident out
of 11 la prosecuted in the courts and
that one out of 10 is successful. The
expenses to the state and to the sev
eral counties In the state In providing
the court machinery In trying out
these cases Is enormous. It la various
ly estimated that the court expense Is
between $100,000 and $200,000 a year,
It Is pointed out that whatever the
amount. It Is virtually all waste and
furnishes ample Justification of the
provision In the proposed bill that the
state appropriate iliu.uuo to aeiray
the expenses of the department for
the first 18 months of operation In
event that the act Is passed by the
present Legislature.
Little, if any, objection to the pro
posed law has been heard from the
employers and labor Interests seem to
be well satisfied with its provisions
generally.
Casualty Companies Oppose It.
The casualty companies are bringing
all the influence to bear they can to
defeat the bill and lobbying is going
on quietly. Several representatives of
the companies are here already. As
open lobbying is taboo. It Is necessary
for the emissaries to operate at the
close of the dally sessions and at the
hotels at night.
The bill has been brought before the
House and from the discussion entered
Into by members. It Is generally be
lieved that It will go to the Senate as
originally drafted. Members of the
Senate who have been Interviewed on
the subject are In favor of the bill.
There seems to be no doubt that the
measure will be passed with little, if
any, change.
