THE PRINCEIMPERLAL.

Tho True Story of His Tragic Death In
Zululand.
The Prince Imperial's determination
to volunteer for service in the Zulu
War, says Wide Awake, was due to a
sudden impulse born of the excitement
of seeing his brother cadets from
Woolwich set out for the seat of war.
At the same time he had long been
eager to distinguish himself in the
hereditary profession of his family.
He was brave to rashness, and being
very young he was stung by the taunts
of his political foes in France, who
were forever sneering at his life. of
sloth.
He left Camden House in February
and sailed the Same day from South
ampton. During the voyage to the
Cape both his horses, well-trained an
imals that knew him, died, and at Dur
ban he bought the one that failed him
SO disastrously at the fatal moment.
On joining Lord Chelmsford's army,
then just entering Zululand, the Prince
was employed in various light duties,
and he was also allowed to take part
in some accommodating expeditions.
On the first day of June the Prince
along with Lieutenant Carey, six
troopers and Kaffir guide, started out
to make a reconnaissance, during
which they intended to complete GER
tain sketches and maps.
The party rested awhile in an aban-
doned Zulu l1raal, where they unsaddled
their horses. The prince, who was in
command of the party, seems not to
have used any of those precautions
that are necessary to the safety OF
small parties in the enemy's country.
He probably did not understand the
stratagems of savage warfare; at all
while they sat sketching the Zulus
crept softly up concealed in the long
grass.
Just as the prince gave the order to
mount, the hidden foe poured a volley
among them and then rushed up. One
trooper fell, but the others got into
their saddles, all except one-that
one was the prince imperial, the best
rider in Woolich.
No one will ever know how it hap
pened, but probably the ill-trained
horse escaped from his hand. as it is
inconoeivable how, if the animal had
remained under control. so expert q
rider as the prince could have failed
to gain his saddle. He caught hold OF
the wallet of the saddle as the horse
sprung forward, but it gave way in
his hand and with it vanished his last
hope of life. The rest of the party
were far ahead, the riderless horse
galloped on, and the son of France
was left alone to face death.
He met it bravely, and fell at last
covered with wounds-there were
seventeen of them, and all in front

Politics in Washington County.
Salllbria Citizen.


Salubria Citizen.
If the alliance of this county puts
a ticket in the field at the coming
election, and it is pretty certain
they will, the fight will be with the
republicans, with two chances to
one for the republicans to win.
The democrats may be able to put
up a ticket. but it will never be
elected for the simple reason that
more democrats than republicans
belong to the alliance and will stay
with it while good many of the
alliance republicans will vote her
straight and the same old way
when it comes to balloting. When
any man tells you that the alliance
is going to help out the democrats
you can set him down right there
as either an ignoramus or n fraud
1t is immaterial to the Citizen,
individually, which party gets
there as it is pretty evident the
same laws will govern us all and if
the rest can stand it so can we.
If we don't miss our guess there
will be local issues during the
next campaign of far more import
ancs than politics, and while such
things are to be regretted they are
sometimes necessary and have al
ways figured pretty conspicuously
in Washington county. As time
draws apace the maneuverings on
all sides grow more interesting and
it will probably be one of the most
hotly contested elections ever held
in the the county.

But while grateful they will frankly
admit that that days speech was

Caste is as conspicuously defined

We are reliably informed the
reason the Republican Central com.
mittee ignored Idaho Falls at it's
recent meeting was because one of
our own citizens, who was present
at the meeting, objected, saying :
"You can't get II meal Of victuals,
let alone a decent place to lodge, in
the town." That's nice talk for a
man who owes his very existence
to the generosity of the people of
Idaho Falls. If our people can
stand such work we can.
