SENATOR HEITFELD.
A POPULIST WAS FINALLY
ELECTED.
A new Man in Politics, But
Honest.
Boise Jan. 28tb, 1897.
Editor Examiner:—
The agony was con
cluded to-day and Henry Heitfeld
of Nez Perce county was elected
U. S. senator by a vote of 39 out
of a total of 70.
The democratic party has dis
charged its honorable obligation to
the Peoples party, against unpre
cedented outside pressure both
local and national, and the peoples
representatives feel they have kept
Jieir party pledges.
Among the democrats who were
recreant to their trust and pledges
may be mentioned only J. M. Bal
lantine of Ada, Thomas E. Bassett,
of Fremont, C. C. Clawson of
Blaine and J. W. Hayes of Fre
mont, who after constant atten
dance on the democratic caucus
and with every protestation - of
fealty to their party until last
night—today voted for Dubois,
Here they will explain for their
constituents remains a matter for
their solution.
Great excitement prevails
among the Dubois men. Protests
was filed in the joint assembly*
with the evident intention of pre
venting Heitfeld from taxing his
seat, but his majority of 3 over
the necessary 36 will settle that
point.
Mr. Heitfeld is a farmer, a man
of very Unassuming manners and
said to be thoroughly honest, and
better than all a democrat at heart
and in principle.
I have only time to say so much
with the additional remark that
we can now get down to. legislative
work.

STATE NEWS.
The citizens cf Soda Sprfligs met
on Saturday evening and elected a
committee to go to Boise and lobby
for a bill requiring a tax of five
cents per head on all foreign sheep
pastured in this county. This is
certainly a move in the right
direction and we hope they will
receive support from other pre->
cincts — Adyance.
An exchange says: Members of
the Idaho legislature are allowed
mileage at the rate of ten cents
per mile for the distance traveled
in going to and returning from the
sèseions. The constitution pro
vides, however* that the members
shall not receive such mileage
when ihey travel on passes. A
bill has been passed allowing them
full mileage whether they traveled
on passes or not,—Idaho World,
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT
OLD OFÏDER OF THINGS
HOLD,
Probate Judges to Continue ai
Ex-Officio School Superin
tendents,
The supreme court in a Uuani 4
mous opinion prepared by Justice
Quarles yesterday decided that pro 4
bate judges shall act as ex-officio
county school superintendents un
til the expiration of their terms.
The opinion was handed down irt
the case of J. J. Blake vs the com
missioners of Ada cobnty in Which
a writ of mandate was asked for
and granted compelling the com 4
missipners to permit him to quai,
ify as county superintendent, AG
ter reciting the facts surrounding
the case the opinion says:
"The said amendment does not
in express terms* nol - . «s we view
it, by necessary Implication, pro 4
vide that it shall go into immediate
effect. The said amendment says
that 'the legislature by Uniform
and general laws shall provide for
the election biennially in each of 1
the several counties of the state *
* * a county superintendent of
public instruction,' etc, Tnis lan
guage clearly shows that it Was the
intention that the separation of the
two offices should not take* place
until the legislature gKftll have
provided for the election of a
county superintendent of public
instructions. It. requires legisla
tion to give effect to the amend
ment, hence the said amendment
is not self-executing and is not in
operation—nor can it come into
full operation Until the legislature
by general and Uniform law,' shall
have provided for the election* at
the general biennial election, of a
county superintendent of public
instruction* and such election has
been had.
The opinion recites that the
legislature is authorised to provide
for election* not appointment, of
county supt's. and continuing*
says: "The old order of things will
continue until the machinery tot
carrying the amendment in queS 4
tion into effect according to*the let 4
ter and spirit of said amendment
shall have been provided.'*
The opinion* in Conclusion, states
that the probate judges are entitled
to qualify as County superinten 4
dents and grants the peremptory
writ prayed for.—Statesman.
Governor bteunenberg has te 4
ceived from Commissioner Lam 4
or eaux of the general land office
clear list No. 6 , or patent, for 3280
acres of land in Kootenai county
in township 54 north, fanges 4 and
5 west. This makes a total of
348*39G.13 acres patented to the
state under the various grants
from the federal government.
Professor Booth has arranged a
unique way of encouraging his
pupils to study. Those who have
good lessons are presented with a
badge bearing the letters D. P.*
which stands for "deligent pupil,'*
those who have poof lessons are
required to wear one with the let 4
tern P. D., which stands for "pef 4
petual dunce." The scheme has
worked well so far.
The investigating committe
promise pretty sensational de 4
velopments when they make their
'report on the state officials. One
part refers to a certain school loan
made on a piece of land not far
from Paris, in which $1000 of the
state's money was loaned on »
piece of property worth about $500.
Some other rotten deals are also to
be exposed. The repoit will be
watched with interest,
