THE DESOLATED HOME.
Scenes In the House Where Fire and
Death Did Dreadful Work.

Fire did its work thoroughly in the destruc-
ton of the interior of the house. The flames
spread with lightning-like rapidity and took
complete possession of the house. The first
floor OF the building is almost an entire wreck.
especially in the front part. The fire is pre-
sumed to have started in the front parlor
nearest the hall
The Parlors.
This room is completely and entirely burned
out The bronzes there having been melted.
Not chair or picture is left. On the side op-
posite the door is a large wooden mantel piece
and directly under this in the basement is the
large furnace. In one corner small book
case is mass Of charred ruins. The
only other article Of furniture distin-
guishable is a desk, which just barely holds
together. The adjoining parlor on the front
is in much better condition, and the flames
evidently went in the direction of the hall and
up the main stairway. In the second front
parlor some few pictures are still hanging on
the walls and number Of chairs and sofas are
left only slightly burned. Back of these rooms
is a large parlor or reception room, where COM
paratively little damage was done. The furni-
ture is still intact, although greatly damaged
by water and smoke.
The Dining Room.
Still further back is the dining room, where
the main damage also was done by water and
smoke. The table stands in the middle Of the
room not damaged in the slightest The walls
are smoked and all the furniture drsnched by
water, but the flames seem not to have reached
this room to any extent Adjoining at the rear
is q small buffers pantry, where everything is
as intact Is If terrible flames had not been rag
ing around and above. The streams OF water
even seem not to have penetrated into this little
retreat
The basement floor was mot damaged in the
slightest, everything being in exactly the same
condition - left last night

Init Mormon Ca Bingham, Liberal
in Bear Lake.

For months past il has been given
out that the campaign in Bear Lake,
Bingham, Cassia and Oneida would
be conducted on the old anti-Mormon
plans. 4 change has come over the
spirit of somebody's dreams. Mr.. Du-
bois and U. 5. Attorney Fremont
Wood were in Bear Lake county Tues.
day and after working up a meeting
OF about 35 Tuesday night at Mont
pelier recommended the organization
OF fusion party of Democrats and
Republicans TO be called Liberals,
and that the party should put out a
Liberal ticket, perhaps, "alf and alf'
for the campaign. The next evening
Hon. JAS. II. Hawley was given a
crowded house at the Crenna Hall in
Montpelier when he had concluded
the Liberal idea vanished like cloud
OF mist before Dakota wind. Mr.
Hawley gave them the key note OF
the Democratic campaign when he
/ told them that the registration should
be conducted in strict accordance
with the constitution and laws of the
new State and that the judges would
see that none but legal voters be al
| lowed 10 vote, In Cassia we imagine
it will be a Peoples ticket and il
Oneida Citizens or something sim
| liar. When we were a Territory W,
could resort 10 all these names e
catch the unsuspecting, but we are |
State now and the people will rise q
the dignity Of their new position an'
make the campaign as they are mad
in the older States, straight part,
fights. The people will be making
history now and the story of-"wil
you walk into my parlor &c" vii
have no more charms for them. Tr
something new in our new State.
