are beaten this time, but Republicans
are still proud of the cause they fought
for.
Knute Nelson is the choice of our
precinct for justice of peace, while Andy
McRoden will act as our new constable.
Good men, both of them.
The river has been very high the
past week. Messrs. Harvey and Reed,
who have charge of the boom, have
been kept very busy keeping the cham
mel open to enable the steamers to pass
to and fro.
Miss Kittie Clark has been confined
to the house with chicken pox for the
past week, but under the good care and
nursing of her mother, is convalescent
again. A number of cases of the same
complaint are prevalent in this vi
cinity.
The infant son of August Lane, the
mail carrier between New Whatcom
and Lummi island, died on Saturday
last. The funeral took place Sunday
at the reservation. Mr.. and Mrs. Lane
has our deepest sympathies in their sad
bereavement.
The marriage of John G.. Allen, of
this place, and Miss Minnie Halter
scheidt, of Fairfield, ILL.,, which happy
event took place at the Catholic church
i'm New Whatcom on Wednesday, Nov.
| 16, is welcome news. Mr.. Allen, who
has lived here all his life, is a we'll

and your correspondent voices the sem

him and his fair young bride every
blessing and joy. In Mrs. Allen our

grace and culture. In the words OF
Rip Van Wrinkle, MAY they live long

The money has been raised and the
organ for the Congregational church in
Mountain View will soon he on the

inches in circumference; the Northern

We believe this valley is to be the great

the size and quality of all varieties OF
fruit. One of our neighbors, who
crossed the continent in the early fall,
said that he did not see bushel of ap.

The School House was Loaded

FAYETTEvILLE, Ark, Nov. 1.-THE
Democrats held ratification meeting
last night. A quantity of powder and
fireworks was stored in the school
house in which the speaking was held.
The house was packed when an ex-
plosion accidentally occurred, wrecking
the building and burying the Occu-
pants in the ruins. The debris took
fire in several places, and it was with
the utmost difficulty that the rescuers
were able to eXtinguish the flames be-
fore they cremated the many persons
pinioned among the timbers. Berry
Scherod, one of the most prominent
residents of the county, his son and
daughter, Silas Graham and an un-
known man, were killed and fifteen
others injured, some fatally.

Shot Into Cleveland Procession

ALEXANDRIA, Ind, Nov. 1.-THE
ratification of Cleveland's election at
this place brought on shooting affair
in which five persons were badly in
jured. Paul Finch and Fred Benton
were on the street and it is alleged they
insulted the wife of glassblower, who

ter ran across the street to his barber
shop and secured a revolver. Benton
grabbed the weapon and began firing
into the crowd. The procession was
just passing and the flying bullets got
in their work. Tom Beale, Frank Cox,
Jim Swinnel Will Jones and an un-
known fifth person were all hit. Cox
is dangerously wounded. Marshal
Finnimore arrested both Finch and
Benton, who were taken to Anderson
and lodged in Jail.

Brutal Murder in San FRANCISCO

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. ia particu-
larly brutal and bloody murder oc-
cured on Montgomery avenue early
this morning, when "Big Bellen Sulli-
van was stabbed and killed by Pat
Sullivan, who went under the title of
the woman's husband. The woman
was waitress in beer hall, and was
coming from breakfast at a restaurant
with a companion named Kittie Ennis,
when they were met at the Newton
house, where they roomed, by Sulli-
van, with whom the murdered woman
had not lived for months. Sullivan
grabbed the woman by the arm, and
with few incoherent remarks, pulled
out huge sheath knife, and despite
her struggles, plunged the knife into
her repeatedly. The first blow ripped
a cash on the left side of the face over
three inches long, and the second blow
was similar to the first and but half
inch lower. The Ennis woman
screamed for help, and the Sullivan
woman dragged her burly assailant
along the pavement in her efforts to
get away. Sullivan held on and in
flicted ten gaping wounds in her body,
one nearly severing her left arm from
the shoulder. The shouting attracted
the attention of Manuel Sylvia, who
lived near by, and he ran to the wo-
mans aid. Sullivan attacked him, but
with the assistance of police officers, he
was finally manacled and dragged to
the city prison, while the woman was
removed to the hospital where she soon
died. Sullivan was taken to the
morgue to view the body, and eX-
claimed with an oath: 81 am glad she
is dead. l got the knife on purpose
from a waiter to kill her" The wo.
man, who was 80 years of age and
weighed 200 pounds, was formerly the
wife of an Oakland policeman named
Taylor, but left him to live with Sulli
van, who kept the Stag saloon in this
city. Sullivan sold his saloon about 8
year ago, and for some time lived Oh
the wOman's earnings. Her refusal tC
further support him is supposed t
have led to the tragedy.

What They Say About It.
Nelson Miner.


The Bonner's Ferry people who
came down to Nelson on Monday
last must not think that any dis
courtesy was intended because they
were not met and formally vel
coined, and because the dance at
the Tecumseh house was slimly at
tended by residents of Nelson. The
fact is, that until the excursion ar
rived not one person in fifty had
the faintest idea that any visitors
were expected. When next the
Bonner Ferryites intend to come
over here, let them give us due
notice and they shall have no
reason to complain.

HARD ON JoRoeNs AND PlLLlNo.

Some say that the Hope Pros
pector dances to the music HI. M.
Jorgens; others claim that Bill
Pilling has the pull.
We care not which of them is re-
sponsible for the vicious attacks on
Bonner's Ferry that appear in the
Prospector. They are both some
what politically inclined and we
have no doubt they will want to
explain the language of their little
hireling before the campaign is
over.
Wepity Bro. Yost. He seems
like such a nice young man. 1t is
too bad he has fallen into the
clutches of men who are so cruel as
to use him for tool.

PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY.
INDEPENDENT newspapers.

The Hope Prospector acknowl
edges that it is run for revenue
only" The Rathdrum Reporter
says that every one knows the ex-
IRENE "pliability of political prom
ises" and justifes the same. These
two sheets style themselves party
papers and claim for themselves
superior political virtue over indie
pendent newspapers. The public
can choose. The fact is, a party
organ is not newspaper in the
best sense of that term.
1t is their first object to boom
their party. In this they neces-
sarily neglect or work against one
half of the community.
1t is their next business to sup
press all news detrimental to the
interests of their party. In this
they are not fulfilling the functions
OF a newspaper.
A party organ works under the
lash Of the party whip. 1t has no
opinions Of its own. The ringsters
furnish whatever of brains it may
possess and the grease" to keep it
going.
In every logical sense the indie
pendent newspaper is the only
newspaper. 1t is true that an in
dependent newspaper may have
greater temptations to sell its in
fuence; that its inhence is in
greater demand and commarsfs
higher price, but it is not true that
the independent press is more cor
rupt than the party press.
All the dirty political schemes
are advocated by party organs. 1t
has always been the independent
press that first took up corruption
and exposed it. Few papers can
afford to be Independent. Neither
the Prospector nor the Reporter
can. The Prospector is already |
about its patronage. Every
Ona knows tho oouca of +bo Do
porter's existence.
But we have no quarrel with our
neighbors. Let them pursue the
even tenor Of their way and we
shall pursue ours. But for the sake
Of decency let such sheets not un-
tertake to run down the indepen-
dent press.

1t is safe to say that in the whole
history Of official correspondence
at Washington no cabinet officer
ever parted from his chief upon
terms SO curt, abrupt and evidently
devoid of all friendly feeling as in
the above instance. There are no
of mutual regret at
parting, of satisfaction on the part
of the chief of the work of the lieu
tenant or of good wishes on the
part of the lieutenant for the vel
fare Of the chief. The most ordi-
nary courtesies of official CORES

matter how strained personal re-
lations may be, are omitted. Evi-

there be those who favor the

honesty of conviction. Intolerance
