Of our system Of wheat cultivation;
"Millions Of acres Of rich wheat land

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. IAN Ameri-

leprosy has not yet been absolutely
proven, but physicians who have ex-

are convinced that she is suffering

AN OLD LAND MARK GOING
The Great Northern Removing the
Old SehOme BunkerS
THE OLDEST ON THE COAST
Local Campaigning Warming Up-A. f
Burleigh to Speak in whatcom
Friday Night

A force of men in the employ of the
Great Northern railway company is
now engaged in tearing down the old
coal bunkers of the old Bellingham
Bay coal mine near the big white mill.
This will remove from the landscape
of the Bay a venerable and familiar
land mark. This is the first coal
bunker ever constructed on the Pacific
coast. 1t was erected in 1868 by the
Bellingham Bay Coal Company, the
same year that witnessed the construc-
tion Of the Mount Diablo bunker in
California. The bunkers which span
the Great Northern track have for
some time been regarded with appre-
hension by the engineers on account of
the decay Of the timbers. II was with
reluctance that President Cornwall,
Of the Beiiingham Bay Improvement
Company, gave his consent TO the re-
moval of this venerable relic of the
beginning Of the coal mining industry
of the Pacific coast. The timbers are
being carefully saved. The roof affords
fine illustration Of the durability OF
the Washington red cedar shingle. The
shingles, which have been exposed to
the weather for thirty-four Years, are
still sound, and show no evidences OF
decay. Samples Of them will probably
be sent to the Worlds Fair.

FENNEE'S HEARING.

We devote a very large share OF
our local space to minute report OF
the evidence evolved al the hearing
of Samuel Fenner before Justice a.
|. Scott, charged with the murder OF
Mrs. |. Granville Richards. The
tailura of the State to make out its
case against Fenner, leaves the trag
edy an unsolved mystery, and which,
considering the time that has elapsed
since its commission, will in all
probability remain such.
While it is not pleasant reflection
that such crimes can escape their
speedy and adequate punishment III
Cecil County, there is at least a
measure of public satisfaction IN the
knowledge, that rigid investigation
of the facts incident to the murder,
does not reveal particle of evidence
on which to hang the SHADOW OF
suspicion OF any one. Cruel gossip
has as usual made free use OF the
names of innocent people in Gomez
ton with this crime. No direct
charge of guilty completely has been
made against them, but deceptious
thories have been ventilated even in
newspapers, which excluded every
reasonable theory OF their innocence.
The exhaustive hearing that has just
closed. will have rendered a public
service in silencing unworthy suspi-
cions, even if it has done nothing
more.

INVESTIGATION shows that a very
large proportion OF those engaged in
the Homestead riot are not only not
native. born Americans, but are not
even citizens. How far the foreign
element enters into the disturbances
may also be judged from the fact
that it was necessary for Hun
garian to make speech in his own
language to the crowd that could
not understand the address of the
Burgess Of the town counselling
peace and order. 1t is probably safe
to say that not one-third of the law.
breakers at Homestead are entitled
to the privileges of citizenship or
have any intelligent idea of what
those privileges consist.

Mr.. CLEVELAND's refusal to send

the Influence Club. Nothing that
he said in either letter should be in

The largest vote at an election
ever polled at Homestead was cast
in 1890, when Governor Pattison had
twenty one majority out OF eight hun
dred and thirty. eight votes. Yet
the population Of Homestead accord
ing to the census OF that year was
1911. In other words, the average
of voters was only one to every nine
and one-half of the population. This
statement is interesting and signif-
cant, because it shows the falsity OF
the assertion that the men engaged
in the strike are for the most part
native born Americans or citizens.
In most OF our popuious communities
the proportion OF voters is about one
fifth Of the whole population; but in
Homestead nearly one tenth of them
are not voters.

to a representative OF the New York

that the electoral vote would be cast

ed his prediction by saying: "On
the silver question Mr.. Cleveland is
so much worse than Mr.. Harrison
from our standpoint that there is no
comparison between their opinions.
Mr.. Cleveland is an out and out gold
bug. President Harrison is in favor
of bi,metallism and willing to do
what he can to keep silver at a parity
with gold so that it can be utilized
as money metal. In all other
matters affecting Idaho interests
