AN ERROR NAILED.
Pocatello Tribune.

Pocatelo Tribune.
In its last issue the Journal of
Shoshone departs from the truth in
the following language:
At the Republican convention,
when the ballot had been taken re-
sulting in the nomination of McCon-
nell for Governor, the delegates of
Shoshone county made no effort to
hide their chagrin, and left the hall
in body and did not return that
evening.
When Mcconnell was nominated
for Governor the Shoshone delega-
ton remained in the hall until Nc
Connell arrived. and listened to his
speech, and afterwards one of their
delegation moved the adjournment
until 10 A. N. of the following day.
When near the close of the conven-
ton motion was made calling for
an expression of the delegation pledg-
ing their support to the ticket, every
member of the Shoshone county del
egation stood up. In his speech at
the Republican rally, Immediately
following the convention, Mr.. Clag-
EFT treasured the audience he would
support the nominees and that they
would all be elected.
Not ten hours after McConnell's
nomination he received a Telegram
from Shoshone county pledging him
the support of over one hundred Re
publicans whose names were signed
to the telegram. This does not lool
much like an seffort on the part o
Shoshone county to hide her cha
grin"
In its anxiety to reflect upon tn,
actions of other parties the Journa
should assume to quote reliable ant
authenticated information. That tn
Shoshone county delegation was sol
idly against Mcconnell for the nomi
nation no one denies. That the
will, now that he is nominated, stan

statesman, DID.
On the ranch Of Harvey Pollard,
near Star, and about III miles from
Boise, yesterday morning, Samuel
Mabe shot Joseph Taylor, inficting
wounds which may have since result
ed fatally.
The two men had had some hot
words on Sunday evening, but they
met at Pollard's by chance, Mabe
having gone there for a quantity Of
grain.
He was walking across the yard,
carrying bag Of oats upon one of
his shoulders, when Taylor came up
and asked:
"Are you as brave now as you
we're last night?"
Mabe told Taylor he wanted to
have no trouble with him. At the
same moment he dropped the bag to
the ground.
Taylor Immediately threw his left
hand around to his hip and drew a
revolver.
Mabe grabbed his arm, wrenched
the gun from Taylor's grasp and vio-
lently pushed him away.
Taylor thrust his hand into his
breast as if to draw another weapon.
whereupon Mabe quickly fired -four
shots.
Taylor did not fall until after the
fourth shot had been fired.
1t is claimed that on Sunday
night Taylor had two pistols conceal
ed about his person, and that Mabe
knew of this circumstance.
A doctor was called to attend
Taylor, but the character of the vict-
inns injuries could not be learned
last night.
After the shooting Mabe surrend
cred to constable Thornton, who
brought him to Boise, where he con
suited and retained Attorney T. D
Catalan. The latter advised him tc
return to Star, there to appear fo
examination before the local Justice
This advice was taken.

self defense.

slaves, it fought the civil war to a sue

it paid the debt honestly and in accord

ABERDEEN, S. D., Nov. 2.-The DEM
ocratic leaders of South Dakota have
finally shown their hand liz a request to
all members of that party to cast their
votes for the Weaver electors. Demo-
Gratis rere have Ueen given the tip in the
past twenty-four hours, and dispatches
from Huron, Pierre and Milbank say
that such an arrangement has been
entered into In those cities. There is
also an agreement on state officers and
congressman. the Democrats to support
the Independent candidates for congress
men and governor and the Democrats to
have the other state officers. The vote
of the state two years ago was Republi-
can $4,000, Alliance $4,000, Democratic
$4,000. If the agreement is faithfully
kept, the Independent electors may win,
but the Republicans claim that at least
10000 Democrats will insist on voting
for Cleveland. 1t looks now as though
the party which wins will not have a
majority Of more than 200 to 1000.

of w. E. Giles and family. who per-
ished off the coast at Iona Iona, in

Mr.. Giles was special agent for the

for the fair. With crew of three
sailors, Mr.. Giles and his family started
from Iona Iona in small boat to
catch the steamer Maori, homeward
bound, at Mango. A sharp squall
came up and the boat went down with
the crew and passengers. Some oars
picked up along the coast furnish the
only evidence of the unfortunate jour-
ney.

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 81. G. Gill
christ, one of the principal owners Of
the steamer w. Fl. Gilcher, which is
supposed to have gone down in Lake
Michigan, has given the boat up as lost.
He said shortly before noon:
am now convinced that the reason
we have not heard from the Gilcher Is
because there is none of the crew alive
to tell the tale. There We're eighteen
men aboard with Captain l. o. Weeks,
of Vermillion, in command. His first
mate was Captain Ed Porter, of Lorain.
Sydney Jones, of Marine City, Mich,
was chief engineer. There was q
wheelman named King who formerly
lived in Vermillion, but who has lately
made his home in Chicago
The only sailor known by me was q
young man named Thompson, who
hailed from Vermillion. Formerly
nearly the entire crew We're from Ver-
million, but about month ago Captain
Weeks, while in Buffalo, discharged
most Of his old men and shipped new
sailors whose names have never been re-
ported to the general Office
The Gilcher was an iron boat, built
by the Cleveland Shipbuilding COM
pany, and put into service year ago
last May. She was valued at $500, 900
and was insured for a1sO, 900. She had
cargo of 5000 tons of coal, and was
bound from Buffalo to Milwaukee. She
was last heard from when she passed
Mackinaw, Friday. 1t is the general sup
position here that she must have struck
upon South Fox reef during the storm Of
Friday night and had hole knocked In
her bottom. The builders of the GilcheT
claim that the wreckage now being
washed ashore does not tally with any
part of the work on this boat. Her
owners are convinced that she has gone
down with ali on board, She carrieia

small boats to carry about thirty men.
