The piece reviews legislative stance, committee control, and related legal cases, including penitentiary scandal investigations led by Attorney General Martin and Warden Arney’s alleged role.

Ada county and Democratic promises nearly sparked a bolt, but a disciplined Republican coalition secured Heyburn as caucus nominee by 20 to 22.
