MoRMoNs OR NO NoRMoNs.
A Big squabbie Over Rival Bear Lake
Delegations.

The convention has been In sore trial
all day over the contesting delegations
from Bear Lake county. The notorious
Joe Jones, the Mormon sheriff of that
county, and Sam Rich, son OF the late
General Rich, the Mormon apostle and
polygamist, were elected delegates by
the Mormons of Bear Lake county. The
Gentle delegation, headed by A.
Mcintosh, who were elected by mass
meeting of Gentle democrats, contested
the seats with the Mormons. The
committee on credentials wrestled with
the mighty problem as to whether they
would fire the Mormons, and thus jeop-
ordizs the loss Of the Mormon influence,
or whether they would throw out the
gentle democrats. A number of dele
gates from Oneida, Bingham and Cassia,
as well as the gentle democrats from
Bear Lake county openly stated that If
the Mormons were seated they would
leave the convention and support the re-
publican nominees. The committee on
credentials finally made report in fa-
vor of all the delegates from all the
counties, excepting Bear Lake. They
refused to report either for or against
the Mormons or the Gentiles.
Mr.. Agnew, of Shoshone county. Wig
orously denounced this lack OF courage
on the part of the committee, and the
convention finally instructed the COM
mittee to make report on the Bear lake
case Tomorrow morning at 10 o. clock.
II is an open secret here that the
democratic party expects the Mormon
aid and influence, but the council differs
as to the wisdom of proclaiming that
fact by anything 30 plain as the seating

ALMOST A BOLT.
Pierce County Democrats Refuse TO
lie Coerced.

TACOMA, WASH, Aug. 23.-That the
congressional aspirations Of Thomas
Carroll, of Pierce, are certainly not di-
gestible to some Of his party was con-
clusively demonstrated during the ses-
sion Of the democratic county conven-
ton which assembled in New Germania
hall to-day. 'That Nestor of the dem
ocracy," as Secretary Hazard describes
him, was the bette noir of the
county delegation in The convention;
and when his constituency tried to gag
the county men with a resolution pledg-
inE them not only to support but to
battle for Carroll for congress, first
class democratic riot was precipitated,
and n motion to adjourn, which pre-
vailed, was the only thing that quelled
a great big row, II not a bolt.

SEATTLE, WASH, Aug. 25.-To- night
the cham ber Of commerce gave dinner
to the Off GERS of the cruiser Charleston.
About 100 were present. Admiral Brown
made speech, in which he
stated briefly the history of our navy,
its growth, and then its decadenco
since tho civil war. He referred
with praise to the administration of
Secretary Whitney, during which the
rehabilitation of the navy was begun,
and with equal, II not greater, praise,
to the skill and energy with
which Secretary Tracy had continued
the work so well begun, and had
extended its scope. The admiral said
that we now had the nucleas OF a navy
of which in after years, when the plans
now laid shall be carried into execution,
the nation can be very proud.
Tomorrow the officers will be taken
on an excursion over Lake Washington,
aud Wednesday night the chamber OF
commerce will give a promenade con-

"THE ONLY WISE COURSE"
MT. Webb's Comment on the Grand
Councils Decisions.

New YoRK, Aug 25.-In reply to the
question, "What do you thinx Of the ac-
tion of the supreme council Of the Unit
ell Order OF Railway Employees at Terre
Haute2" Webb said: "Theirs was the
only wise course to take. Whether the
Knights of Labor will now take further
steps will make but little difference.
There are only few knights in the
employ of the New York Central. 1t Is
a queer commentary that the supreme
council OF the federation can find no
grievance upon which to order a strike,
and yet they censure the New York
Central and its officers, They also de-
cline to give any support to the strike,
but appeal to the public to furnish it"

THE HOP CROP.
Indications of an Enormous Yield
The London Market

TACOMA, WASH, Aug. 25.-lt is esti-
mated that not less than 10000 bales OF
hops will be gathered this year from the
fields lying between Tacoma and the
Snoqualmie. About 90 900 bales have
already been sold at 1s cents per pound
by certain growers who did not expect
that the European demand for Wash
ington hops would be SO great. Friday
last they were quoted at 81 cents, and a
cablegram from London intimated that
buyers were buying madly and that hops
might go to any figure before the excite
ment abated. The hop-picking season
and will last about three weeks. The
largest portion of this work will be done,
us formerly, by Indians, who are begin
ming to arrive from British Columbia

Phi'y ss'N.
BOISE Cry, Idaho, Aug. 23.-Tho first
republican state convention of Idaho
having completed its labors and the
delegates returned TO their respective
homes. the general impression Is that
the ticket nominated is a strong one,
and that the party will win by hand
some majority in October The results
of the convention, and the open and
positive statements of the delegates and
their acts fully verify tho prophecies Of
the REVIEW.
As predicted by the REVIEW, Governor
Shoup was nominated by acclamation
for governor and Judge Willis Sweet for
congress.
While there was considerable sparring
FOR the advantage In the senatorial fight,
it:was conceded by all the delegates that
MIR. Dubois was out of the woods, the
delegates from all sections uniting in the
statement that he was the choice OF their
section.
In supporting the resolution that It
was the sense of the convention that one
senator should come from North Idaho,
Judge Clagett took occasion TO say in
his remarks that so far rs he knew MIR.
Dubois was the choice Of the entire
North, but they had right
to expect one of the senator's from
that section. There does not appear any
desire to discuss tho senatorial question
any further, but there 10 a tacit under
standing all around that the state and
legislative tickets shall be heartily sup
ported, and the question: of senator's left
out of further consideration, until after
the legislature meets. The North is well
satisfied with the resolution ofthe con-
vention and the South IS willing to rest
the matter as 1t now stands.
The state com mittee HAS appointed it's
officers and will inaugufate thorough
and vigorous campaign.

RELATIONS WITH AusrRIA.

Since De Giors' first conference with

have been passing between the auth ORR

to expecting the meeting of Emperor

another European congress, and
profess increduiity as to the emperor's
presence at Peterhof causing great
political transaction. At the same time
there comes the news from Vienna that

Three brother oi lefs were travelling
from Umritsir to Lahore, where they
had been playing polo during the after
noon. One of them, tired after the
game, fell asleep on one of the seats.
His railway ticket, which was sticking
little out of his pocket, was promptly
annexed by one of the others and trans
ferred to his own pocket. When near
ing Lahore his brother officers awoke
the sleeping youth, saying:
Now, then, old man! Get up! Here
We arer'
1t was still broad daylight, and for
some reason or other the train was pulled
up some little way outside the station.
"All tickets ready, please" shouted
the ticket collector
Two of our friends promptly found
theirs, ready for the ticket collector
when he should make his appearance.
The third searched this pocket, that
pocket here, everywhere, bat could find

at last, quite close TO the carriage.
"What the dickens shall do?" said
the ticketless one
"Oh! get under the seat" said the

Under the seat like shot went the
man without a ticket! When the ticket

were handed up.

A Universal Remedy.

It is true that Reid's German
Cough and Kidney Cure does
heal great many diseases, but
if one will only consider how
large a share of our maIadies
spring from what was at the
outset ''only a slight cold,"
this fact will not be surprising
A remedy like Reid's German
Cough and Kidney Cure is All
absolute specific for colds and
will cure the patient when all
other remedies fail. The cata-
logue Of diseases that rest upon
simple colds is a large one; it
begins with soar throat, hoarse-
ness, cough, casarrh, asthma,
qninsy, Group, whooping cough,
pleulisy, lumbago, dyptheria,
bronchitis, tonsilitis, kidney
trouble, pneumonia, hemmor-
of the lungs, phthisic, and all
hage the long train of diseases
ending with consumption. The
cause is the same in all of them
and it is the cause that Reid's
Cough and Kidney Cure eradi-
Gates. When the cause is re-
moved the patient recovers.
The experience of thousands
who are now taking Reid's Ger
man Cough and Kidney Cure,
is, that it does just what is
claimed for it. Thus far we
have not found a single com
plant. 1t is, too, singularly
quick and efficacious in its
results, no matter how hard the
cough may be, the sufferer will
experience immediate relief.
The sensation Of waking at
night with a racking cough is
familiar to all of our readers.
How long the hours are and
how each convulsion seems to
tear its way up from the lungs,
until the head is ready to burst
with the pressure. This has
led to many a death from
hemmorhage. A single dose of
Reid's Cough and Kidney Cure
will bring relief, and in almost
all instances a bottle will effect
a cure.
