ACCOUNTS of the Ceur d'Alene
troubles between the Miners Union
and mine owners show unjustifiable
actions on both sides. To begin with
the union overstepped the bounds of
reason, justice and good judgment in
preventing, by threats, and acts OF
violence, any one from working in
the mines who did not belong to the
union, and also, contrary to all prece-
dent, demanding that unskilled labor
shall receive the same pay as skilled
labor. On the other hand the mine
owners have acted in a manner that
cannot be justified, by trying to keep
nom union men at work against their
will by the employment of armed
guards at the mines. Il is bad state
of affairs all round The union was
ready to employ forcible means to
prevent non-union men from going
to work; now the mine owners hire
non-union men and employ the same
disreputable means to prevent them
from quitting. Both sides are now
in the same boat, and if they continue
their present tactics will succeed II
sinking it and both sides will go un'
der. Considering the present status o.
affairs no disinterested person car
have any great amount of sympath,
TO bestow on either the union or mint
owners.

James HOWE, an old-timer of this

i" Uncle Jimmie" has been living
since early days about two miles east
of town, and occasionally when he
would come down would imbibe some
and become socially intoxicated,
but his sprees were rather far be-
tween, and of late years he has drank
but very little, but on Tuesday he
got with old friends and drank quite
freely. John Jackson took the old
gentleman to his place that night,
and he was put to bed. Mr.. Jackson
slept with him and when he awoke on
w ednesday morning was surprise"
to find that he had been sleeping
with a corpse. HOWE died some
time during the night, and must have
passed away peacefully and without
struggle. He was a native OF
Scotland and 50 years of age. he
was a pioneer of this place, aud a
man we'll liked by everybody. His
only fault was his conviv'ality, but
he was never boisterous nor quarrel
some.

THE Statesman says many resi-
dents of Boise are not slow to ex-
press an opinion, privately, in regard
to the guilt of Dennis Mccarthy, but
are careful to earnestly request the
reporter "not to publish" what they
say. So it was here with the St1tes-
mans reporter. Policy men are as
thick as fees on dogs back In Web
foot, sometimes. Some men hunting
office fear to lose vote; others do
ing business fear the loss of a nickle,
and so with publicity Of their convic-
tions they have no opportunity to
ssstraddle" In matters of this kind,
for very apparent reasons, every man
ought to be willing to publicly ex-
press an opinion without fear or IA
vor. The policy of policy man
very frequently brings about the very
results he is trying to avoid by gag
ging and smothering his honest con-
victions.

The romance Of the marriage Of
Dennis Mccarthy, conditioned on bis
pardon, to young girl Who came ont
from Ireland shortly after his convic-
ton, is liable to fall fat. The girl
has now changed her mind, and now
thinks Of entering one Of the Catho-
lie sistsrhoods. This girl has been
very affectionate and has constantly
visited the convict, prayed with him,
and il ls said, used her influence to
secure his pardon, and Il has been
understood that If pardoned McCar-
thy would merry the girl, return to
Ireland, become : reformed man and
be an ornament to society. All this,
as everybody in this section knows,
has been used ~ - an influential

pleteness and closing deficiency, is a
fat failure. If it had ended with .

the happy announcement Of wedding
and soul-stirring strains Of music by
the orchestra, the romance would have
been complete, thrilling, soul-lifting

Will come all right. This made me
pretty mad. l told him ! would rath-

No one who knows the ex-Gover-
nor will doubt the truth of his state
ment regarding the $4,000. Mr..
Stevenson also said that Mccarthy
would find Boise county a very un-
comfortable place for men of his
stripe.
HOW THE PARDON WAS GRANTED.
Governor Norman B. Wiley said
that the Mccarthy pardon had been
granted by unanimous vote of the
board, upon the grounds of good be-
havior and doubt of criminal intent
upon the part of Dacey's slayer. The
Governor said that he firmly believed
Mccarthy did not maliciously shoot
Dacey, but that the pistol was acci-
dentally discharged. There is no ques-
ton as to the sincerity of Governor
Wiley, who has carefully Investigate
ed the case. Speaking upon the
matter of the virtual offering of a
hribe to Ex-Governor Stevenson,
Governor Wiley said:
81 am sorry to say that Mccarthy
stay in the penitentiary has been pro-
longed at least year by the circula-
ton of hints of financial reward in
case he was pardoned. While such
rumors were prevalent l disliked very
much to vote to extend clemency tc
the prisoner; but finally concluded

to allow fear of criticism to obstrucl
the dispensation of justice and equi.
ty. | have heard that during the ex.
istence of the present administration
there have been hints that Mccarthy
friends might pay for his pardon, and
| have received several anonymous
letters bearing upon the matter.
do not care to make public the con
tents of the letters. | cannot decide
whether they were written by enc
mics or over-zealous friends of Nc
Carthy, but, SO far as am concerned
they injured him rather than aidec
