on the Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern
railway. The accident occurred at
Snoqualmie Falls last Wednesday, but
no news was heard till to. day on account
of the distance from telegraph.
Several blasts had been fixed on a
side hill, when tho foreman began
investigating one that failed to explode.
While doing SO the blast exploded aud
ten men were hurled down precipice

Bennett vs.. Johnson,

II. NJ. Bennett, Of Blackfoot, chair
man Of the republican territorial central
committee and district attorney of Bing-
ham county, in a published letter over
his own signature says:
II undertake to say that your regis
trar in Malad precinct knows every
Mormon 10 it, and I hold that it will
be violation of that registrars official
oath if he registers a member of the
Mormon church knowingly, whether that
member is willing or not to take the
electors oath. And if he is in doubt
about the brothers membership it is his
duty to swear him on that point
Attorney General r. u. johnson,
whose opinion was asked by the regis
trar of Cassia county, holds a different
view Of the question. In reply to the
registrar, Attorney General johnson
says:
"lt is your duty to see that he Ut.
derstands the oath or that he has read it
or that it has been read to him, and il
you have reason to believe that he is
about to swear falsely you should ex.
plain the oath to him and warn him, bu,
these are not questions for you to try,
In any view Of the law you have nc
right to reject his application because he
will not answer your preferred questions
as to what he believe, or What he is a
believer in. The law does not profess
to go into that question"

A TRIBUTE OF LOVE.

On Friday last the walks Of our little
city lost beloved pilgrim. "Grandpa"
Hutchings had, perhaps, more that any
other man thoroughly enthroued him
self in the hearts Of the Lewiston people !;
and like monarch, unambitious and
gentle of disposition, he swayed the wills
of those hearts to do him reverence. 1t
is true he did not impress the energies Of
his life upon public affairs; but if great
ness of soul and loftincss of heart are to
determine what man is, Grandpa
Hutchings was truly great mon.
And 1 take it for granted that greatness
of soul holds its own inestimable worth
whether i, be impressed on the material
environments of earth or linger, like a
contented king, in the celestial palaces Of
the heart and mind.
The simplicity of bis life; the unim.
FASHIONED flow Of its activity; its gentle
ness, its purity and its attachment to
things sacred have already spoken his
euloey. He was patriotic, loving his
country with all the ardor Of one who
cherished the pathetic memory of its
many struggles. He beheld with the
seeing eye; on every leaf and flower he
saw written divine message. I heard
him say little while before his last i'll
ness that he doubted if there were any
practical Atheism. He loved the
common people. All he asked was
"aro you a man, loving Righteousness
and hating iuiquity?' His days were
many and full Of sunshine; and hi;
death bed, though accompanied with suf
fering, might be sought by kings who tind
it harder to give up the world than to die
And may the memory of his good lif,
remain part Of our own lives shedding
on them a benign influence making u
purer and better. L. F.

Let US show them that Maine, and after
wards the Union, can rebuke and resent and
overcome that injustice. Applause. Let
them understand that tariff duties shall be
honestly and impartially levied. and let them
remember that not in a single instance from
ocean to ocean was republican legislation on
on the tariff question ever given a partizsn
turn. No democratic state, no Southern
State, no Democratic community, no county,
town or any portion of the United States,
when the Republicans had three fourths in
both branches of Congress, was ever pun
ished in so malignant manner, and when
our party regains the administration of the
government. we shall not take a petty and
ignoble revenge upon the Democrats, but we
shall show them how to be just and generous
at the same time. Applause.
Immediately after he had finished this
speech, Mr.. Blaine left the hall, and in little
less than two hours was in Bath. 1t had
been arranged that he should make an even
ing speech there, but the rain prevented an
outdoor meeting, and the only large hall in
the town was engaged.
General Thomas W. Hyde held the Demo-
Gratis responsible for the ill-success of the
Republican efforts to secure the hall. He
said that the hall had been hired for travel
ling company by democratic politician and
that although the Republican city committee
had offered IA good deal of money" to the
Snowman to give up the use of the hall, he
would not do so.
IL has been suggested, however, that a
ratification meeting be held here next week,
with Mr. Blaine as one of the speakers.
Mr.. Blaine was the guest of General
Thomas w. Hyde for the two hours he re-
maned in the city. He left by spe cial train

LITERARY NOTICES.


THE Face of Rosenfel," by Cahrles How
ard Montague, No. 6 of the Manhattan
Series" of Popular American Novels. Paper
l2mo. Price, 20 cents. Published by A. l..
Burt, sc Beeh man street, New York. The
Face of Rosenfel' is the striking title of one
of the most interesting of recent novels. The
author is Charles Howard Montague, writer
of wide popularity and versatile genius
While in no sense mere detective story, it
has all the absorbing fascination of a search
for the clew to battling mystery, and it is
finally developed, not by the tricks of the
searchers but bvthe natural results of the erin .
which underlies it. There is more, how .
ever, in 1.-The Face of Rosenfel' than mere
absorbing narration. Mr. Montague has
created at least one very original char
acter in his capital novel, and it
bids fair to take aplace in literature as a
unique example of that puzzling class of
men who go to ruin solely because they de-
spise themselves The reader will be cap
tivated by the vigor and movement of the
story, and it will undoubtedly be one of the
most talked-of books of the year
