A WORTHY CITIZEN
OF Paris, Ida, Attacked by the Southern Idaho

PARIS, Ida, July L. Special telegram
to THE HERALD. THE Southern Idaho In
dependent today has an editorial denouncing
Hyrum Grimmell in the most rabbid terms
calling him an eavesdropper and accusing
him of making public private conversation
by his affidavit in the Hart letter to THE
HERALD some time ago, in regard to the
conversation that trRnspired in the treas
urer's Office in the court house.
GrimmelI is well known in this county
of being an honorable and upright citizen,
and because he is Democrat Hoge attacks
him in his paper. If Hoge had the least
principle of manhood, or had
any property that could be got
at by law libel suit would be
the result, but this man Hoge is the frat
counselor of Bishop Price and if check is
not put upon him he will bring disgrace
upon the church that he represents. and
also the Republican party that he tries to
be a leader Of.
Grimmell is a man whose reputation is
above repraach in this county. Pendry, the
HERALD representative was acquitted on
the charge of perjury preferred by Hogo
and every body who had any knowledge Of
this case was satisfied with the decision.

although if full instice had been given
Hoge he would have been compelled to pay
the cost of the prosecution.
People in this country are indignant over
Hoge's course and his best friends are Also

A PecnIIar sisuatIon.

MApIsoS, Wis. July 1.-The discovery
was made just before the special session Of
the legislature adjourned that the senate
and assembly had adopted different meas
ures. and the point was raised by assem-
blvmen that no bill had been legally
adopted. The announcement created q
sensation but nothing could be done to rec
tify the error, as so many members had
gone home that there was no quorum Of
either house present. Republicans are
iubilant, as- it complexities the 0errymander
question, and puts the Democrats in ca IN
en- viable position.

CH1cAeo. July LA sensational emoez-
element, which has been going on for ten
years, was revealed today by document

agership, Ashley being made cashier.
Whnley examined the cashiers books at
stated periods and invariably reported
them correct and in proper shape. In No
yember Whaley fell i'll and another man
was appointed. He soon discovered every
thing was not right, and it is now asserted
that both Whaley and Ashley have been
systematically robbing the Journal and
covered their regulations by false entries.
So far discrepancy OF $4,000 has been
discovered and the end is not yet. Neither
of the culprits are as yet arrested.

FRIGHTFULLY MANGLED.
Fierce Bull Dog Almost Tears Woman to
Pieces.


Especial TO THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
NEW YoRK, July Mrs. Elizabeth
Kieser. AZ years, of West Hoboken, had q
frightful experience last night. While
crossing her yard, bull dog belonging to
neighbor, broke the chain by which he
was attached to stake. The woman
tried TO run away but the dog in another
moment had the thumb of one hand seized
and literally torn off, and the
ARM TORN OPEN TO THE BONE.
Frenzied by the sight OF the blood the
dog rent the woman's raiment and sank his
teeth into her body. Again and again was
this repeated until Mrs. Kieser was hor-
ribiy mangled.
Although her strength was swiftly wan
ing she feehly fought for life. With a
desperate effort she tried to clutch the dog
by the throat, only to have her hands again
torn. She was half siified with the bloody
froth that fell from the animals lips upon
her face, yet she had powerr 10 sceam.
Her cries for help were answered by a
small boy. He tried to drive away the dog,
but it sprang forward and bit him in the
legs. The boy fled and the dog returned
to resume the gnawing and tearing of the
form of his now helpless victim. Soma
men rushed up ard with clubs drove the
dog away. 1t was then killed. Mrs.
kieser's condition is critical.

ABOUT FINANCE.
Very 'Wise' Man Shows His Ignorance

A Very stWise'' Man Shows His Ignorance
of the ssMiddle Classes
The review edition of the Chicago
Tribune, in commenting on money,
silver and finance" says: cit is I'M
fortunate that this information is not
likely to reach those who need it most.
Unsound views in relation to the cur
rency are notably rife among the mid
die classes, especially the agricultural
communities. But the arguments here
presented are beyond the comprehen-
sion of these classes"
Oh, but ye are gods, and wisdom will
die with you. You have this financial
question to perfection. You have
reached the point where panics recur as
regular as the equinox, and the trade of
the country plays see-saw on the bridge
Of Shylock's nose. Yes, your trained in
telligence" in this country understands
finance. Its Alpha is bonds and
mortgages and its Omega is per
cent. and taxes. It is an inverted pyra-
mid with idiocy and theft and despot-
ism on top and long suffering labor at
the bottom. To test the question of
competency we beg the Tribune to trot
out its specimens of upper class" men
who will try their power of comprehen-
sion upon the platform along side of
representative Of these lower classes.
For years this arrogance, this naughty
superiority, this studied insult has been
the reliance of plutocracy, but it will
soon be punctuated with full stop. 1t
the farmers don't understand the money
question they are studying it.-Noncon-
formist.
