DEATH OF COLONEL WOOD.

On Sunday evening, the sad news reached
this city of the death of Colonel Charles A.
Wood, Of Lemhi county. The deceased
has been a prominent figure in the terri
tory for the last ten years or more We
had occasion to speak of him several times
last winter in our correspondence as the
probable next governor of Idaho, and he
might have been were 1t not for success
sion of misfortunes coming one after an
other, the last of which resulted in his
decease. During the month of November,
while sitting in one of the rooms of his
house in Salmon city, he observed a strong
smell of smoke. He assembled the stairway
and opening door from whence it seemed
to proceed, the flames struck him in the
face, and he fell all of the way down stairs
and was taken up burned and bruised.
This caused an all winters illness Re
covering somewhat, he was next attacked
with infiammatory rheumatism, from which
he suffered for a long time. Aided by a
wonderful constitution, he again rallied,
only to BE- afflicted with carbuncle on the
back of his neck, from the effects of which
he passed away after but few days i'll
ness. Color el Wood was born in New

QUITE A BLAZE.

A fire occurred on Sunday morning in this
city at $50 o'clock. A barn belonging to
Archie Stevenson, now in California, To-
Gated near the corner of Eighth and Idaho
streets, was discovered to be in flames
The immediate neighborhood was wooden
houses, but though scOrched, only the barn
and contents and some trees were de
stroyed. MIR. Stevenson, however, had all
his household furniture and buggy, which
was stored therein, destroyed The loss
did not exceed 81, 600.

BOISE CITY, June 1S.-[Special Core
spondence of THE HERALD. l-On Saturday
last both the Republican and Democratic
central committees of this county held
meetings at the capitol building to deter
mine what should be done to settle previ-
Gus misunderstanding between the par
ties relating to the selection of delegates
for the constitutional convention. 1t is,
perhaps, unnecessary to say that no com
promise was effected. The Democrats re
ceived a communication asking them if
they had any proposal to make, to which a
reply was given in the negative They
then went on to pass resolutions that four
of the nine delegates selected at the meet
ing of the county committee some weeks
ago, should be given certificates as well as

THE vorH ON THE CONSTITUTION.

1t is probable that the vote on the new
constitution-outsideo of the law through it
may be-wiil be accompanied with much
excitement, and stump speeches will be
made by pilgrims from the larger towns, in
all mining camps and school districts. The
merits of the proposed state of political
being will be so discussed that the people
who care to know something of its merits
and possess intelligence will have some
knowledge of its benefits and disadyan-
tages. BUZ.

A BITTER FEELING.

After the case was decided by the SUI
preme court in which the action of the
legislature in the matter of dividing AL
turas county was declared legal, the HALEY
people, or part of them at least, enter
tanned the most embittered feeling against
Chief Justice Wier, and exhausted all their
resources in efforts to procure his removal,
trumping up the most absurd of charges
against him. He has recently been hold
ing term Of court there, lasting about
six weeks. At first, some of the members
of the bar affected to treat him with SOW
ereign contempt but he gave them to un-
derstand that little of such nonsense
would go great ways, and the little man
of iron conquered. There is not the slight
est probability of his removal. The object
of the Haley people was to get one of their
home lawyers appointed, make up new
case, and by that manner of means reverse
the former decision of the supreme court.
The lawyers Of the territory-and the word
lawyer means a great deal-have the high
est respect for the able chief justice. We
think the opinion is unanimous among such
that Judge Wier is the peer of any who
have preceded him.

Hampshire; he served with distinction
during the war, soon after which he came
to Salmon city, embarked in the practice of
law, and rose to eminence. He was lib
eral Republican-not one of the insane
kind-and though your correspondent was
quite intimate with the gentleman, never
knew him to breach or force the discussion
of politics upon his friends or acquaint-
ances He had respect for the opinions,
rights and privileges of other men, 1t is
said that all men have their weaknesses

but the gallant gentleman of whom we
speak seemed, to our mind, to as nearly
approach that point as any human being
with whom we have met. In the presence
of the mystery of death, all of our differ
ences in worldly thought and action die
away, we cherish the memory of personal
friends, and the heart throbs quick while
memory reviews each little act of charity,

BALTIMORE, Nov. 5.-A controller, mem
bers Of the legislature and county officers
were to be chosen in Maryland. The new
legislature will elect a United States senator
to succeed Ephraim K. Wilson, dem. whose
term expires in 1891. The present legisla-
ture is democratic by 69 majority on joint
ballot The state tickets are given below:
For Controller-G. L. Wellington, rep. !:
l.. V. BaughmaD, dem; D. E. Stone, prob.
At II As o'clock tonight partial returns
from city and county to the Sun indicate
that Baughman, dem, is reelected state
comptroller by about IL 900 majority, a
gain of 200 on his former vote.
At 11:15 o'clock, p. m., an American
buelletin said Davidson, the democratic
candidate for mayor, carries the city by
4,500, indicated by returns Of thirteen wards
out of twenty-five.
MURDER AT THE POLLS.
Shortly before the closing of the polls in
the first precinct of the Fifteenth ward, a
fight took place between John Apple, a fu-
sionist ticket holder, and William Driscoll,
the latter a democrat. Apple was knocked
down and kicked in the head and was dead
when picked up. Driscoll is held for muir
der. There were several other assaults, but
none of a serious nature.
BALTIMORE CARRIED.
The regular democrats have carried this
city by a majority of from 4,5O0 to 5000
for the state controllership and local
offices. The representation in the legisla-
ture will be 12 democrats, with others
doubtful, with the chances in favor of
the republicans and independent demo-
Gratis. The city council will stand
about a tie, with the probabilities
in favor of q slight democratic majority.
The returns from the different counties are
very meagre, only indications being sent
From these the democrats have made gains
in many places and will have a working
majority in the legislature. Baughman,
dem, for treasurer is surely elected by an
increased majority. As compared with the
vote of two years ago the democrats will
gain somewhat.
RIOT.
FREDERICK, Nd, Nov. 5.-A terrible
election riot occurred at the polling place
in the Woodsboro district, in this county,
this afternoon. A county constable was
shot, Judges were driven from the room
and the ballot-box was taken. Opposite
factions arrayed themselves on each side of
the road and fred on each other. The
sheriff and posse have left for the scene
of the trouble.

The Vote Polled Nearly as Large as
That of Last Year.

NEWARK, N. j., Nov. 5.--A governor,
seven senators. members of the legislature,

Jersey. In the last legislature the Senate
was composed of 10 republicans and II
democrats. and the Assembly of 2S repub-
licans and 80 democrats. OF the seven
counties which eject senators to-day,
three were represented at the last
session by republicans and four by demo-
Gratis. Bergen county elected a sheriff

large of freeholders, and ten freeholders,

holders, Hunterdon a surrogate, Mercer a
surrogate, Middlesex clerk, Salem clerk,
Somerset a sheriff. and Warren surrogate,
The gubernatorial candidates are:
Republican-Edward B. Grubb.
Democratic-Leon Abbett.
An unusually large vote was polled
throughout the state-almost as large as in
the presidential year. Hudson, Passaic,
Essex, Burlington. and other southern
counties polled tremendously big vote
The indications are that Albeit, the demo
cratic candidate for governor, has carried
the state In Essex county it is estimated
that the democrats have elected six of the
ten assemblymen.
Returns received from Hudson, Passaic
and most of the southern counties show
that Albeit. for governor, has carried the
state. The democratic majority in Essex
county is large, and they have elected six
of the ten assemblymen.
LOOKS LIKE BIG VICTORY.
JERSEY CITY, N. j., Nov. 5.-Returns
are coming in slowly from the various por-
tions of the state. and the figures in most
cases will not be obtainable tonight. There
is every indication of sweeping demo-
cratic victory.
ABBETT STILL GAINING.
NEWARK, n. j.. Nov. 6, l A. M.-The
latest returns show democratic gains in this
city, and an increase in the vote for Albeit
over that for Green in Central New Jersey.

ence with the New Law.
BosToN, MASS, Nov. 5.--To-day's expert
ence has seemed to prove beyond doubt tho
success of the Australian system of voting,
and the testimony from all sections of the
state is almost unanimous in its praise. In
this city the voting places presented a re-
markably quiet appearance, and the scenes
therein have in many cases been in marked
contrast to those usually witnessed.
Voting proceeded with dispatch and
voters enjoyed freedom from
the opportunities Of ballot distributors that
they have never known before. Very few
cases are reported where instructions as to
the method Of voting were necessary, and
practically the only and required was for
those who came under the law as, "By
blindness or other physical disability, uu-
able to mark their ballots"
WARD OFFICERS ALSO PLEASED.
While voters expressed their pleasure at
being able to vote without the usual solic1
tation in the interest Of one candidate or
another, the ward officers were also de-
lighted at being able to attend to their
duties without being disturbed by the
customary bustle and disturbances outside
the rail. There was some slight
friction caused by a conflict of opinion
with regard to the duties Of precinct aud
other officers, but it was Insignificant and
made but little trouble. With regard to
the ballots themselves, there was little or
no complaint From all over the state re-
ports indicate very quiet election and a
light vote. Although the vote itself was
conducted as expeditiously as in former
years, the count was not completed 80 early,
and the returns came in slowly

AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Everybody but Blaine Disappointed
Over Virginia.


Over Virginia.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-President Harri-
son, like his predecessor, gets the news Of
election and other important events tele-
graphed directly to the white house over
the wire which connects at all times with
the Western Union system. He paid very
little attention to the scattering dispatches
OF the daytime, although at the cabinet
meeting the probable results of the cleo
tons were canvassed and their effect on the
administration discussed, Secretary Blaine
being significantly silent when the admins
tratlon's Virginia policy was up. But after
dinner this evening the President had the
results, as they came in, brought into the
library, and talked them over with the
members Of the cabinet as they dropped in.
DISAPPOINTED OVER VIRGINIA.
The President and most of the members
Of the cabinet, Secretary Blaine being the
chief exception, seemed disappointed in the
result In Virginia. They seem to have taken
Mahone's promises at par, and to be sur
pr1sed at his failure to redeem them. The
President counted upon Malone to break
the solid south, and therefore looked at his
efforts with far more interest than he
exhibited in those of any of the re-
publican leaders elsewhere 1t does not
comfort him much to know that
Malone will control the Virginia delegation
in the next national convention. President
Harrison really desired Virginia carried by
the republicans this fall, whatever Mahones
real purpose may have been. Nothing
shows this more than the fact hitherto
unpublished that the President, besides
turning over the federal patronage of
Virginia to Malone, made small personal
contribution to Mahone's campaign fund.
