Senator VOORHEES, was a little staggered
the other DAY when confronted By the
democratic governor of Indiana, and hs
staff. who had come to Washington to
protest against the tariff bill as it now
stands. He couldn't turn them down. as
he did the New England women. so they
had short but sharp word battle, the
senator and the governor being the chief
fighters. Governor Matthews, who is I'M
derstood to be candidate for Voorhees,
seat in the Senate, told the senator that
the Indiana democrats demanded a restor-
alton of the original free list of the Will
son bill. Voorhees, denied it, and said
that Matthews had been trying to work
up democratic opposition to the bill, hop
ing to use it to advance his senatorial as
pirations. Matthews gave him to under
stand that the matter would figure in the
senatorial election.

John CoiIins' Funeral.
M a

All willremember the old poem
that said
Rattle his bones over the stones,
For he is only pauper who nobody owns"
We thank God that times have
changed from the time and place
on and in which that was written.
Last Tuesday John Collins was
buried in the cemetery at Challis
in kindly manner, although he
died in very impecureous state,
A goodly number of the citizens
of Challis and surrounding neigh
borhoods attended the church
where Mr.. L. H. Johnston read
the Episcopal burial service and
the choir sang appropriate
hymns, and Mrs. l.. II. Johnston
organist, played the accompany
ing funeral notes. Every re-
spect was paid to the dead in
form as would have been done if
he had died millionaire. Kind
hands of men, women and chill
dren laid gently on the casket
that hid him forever from our
sight, fowers-fresh flowers OF
beautiful and solemn hues.
Everywhere around us was mani
fest that tender sympathy for the
old time acquaintance who had
bade us a last farewell, from the
time when the pail bearers bore
the casket to the church door
until it was laid, fower-crowneG
in the tomb; and there were none
there but that in sympathy ant
sorrow said in their heart, a'
they departed from the newly
made grave, God bless the sou
of John Collins

Meets HiSDOOn.

Word was received in Challis
last Monday evening of a shoot
ing scrape between two China
men. One All Sam shoots and
kills another Chinaman. To ex-
plain it more fully, All Sam was
a cook for the Black mine, and
he shot and killed a Chinaman
who had been cooking at the
Montana mine. The killing took
place in Custer Monday after
noon. All Sam was brought out
from Custer Thursday evening
by Jack Appleton, and lodged in
Jail to await the action of the
District Attorney.

Mrs. Ellen Foster, who is
stumping Idaho for the Republi-
cans, denounces the greatest
statesman this country has given
birth to as an anarchist. This
was Thomas Jefferson, the author
of the Declaration of Independ-

not gone wild in hiring this
hepdromical hypotheneuse, they
are certainly getting the worth
of their money. 1t is one or the
