IDAHO FALLS, Aug. 4.-Advices to-
day from Pocatello are to the effect
that the water fight there has culmin
ated in ex-Manager j. j. Cusick of the
water company administering a. terri
Bile beating to Mayor Kasiska. 1t ap
pears that Mr.. Cusick while manager
Of the water company stirred up not
alone the water consumers, but his
course was such as to stir up the COM
missioners, who at once raised the as
sassment to a valuation of $1,000. The
water works there are owned by James
A. Murray of Butte, a man who has
done much for Pocatello, and the citi-
zens take kindly to his methods. Mr.
Murray came down from Butte yester-
day and looked over the situation care
fully. Finding that new and different
methods were all that was required in
the premises. Mr.. Cusick has been de-
posed and Chief Engineer Winters in
stalled in his stead, while the board
has lowered the assessed valuation of
the plant from $4,000 to $4,000, a figure
that is said to be entirely satisfactory
to the multt-millionaire. 1t is reported
that the cause of the trouble today re-
suited from Cusick being KasislSa's po-
lftical manager in the recent campaign,
and he charges the mayor with bad
faith in the water works fight. Poca-
tello is seldom free from internal dis
sensions, and the end is not yet in

p. V. JUNCTION, Aug. 3. 1856
What might have resulted in ia
tality occurred this morning on the
Denver s, Rio Grande side train from
Schoheld to P V. Junction. We were
going ar the rate of fifteen miles an
hour, at the time There was a piece
of rail about three feet long broken
off. and the space was not noticed
until the coach jumped the track. The
engine and all the other cars passed
over the gap all right. but the coach,
containing twenty passengers, was
dragged along the ties for about 100
yards AS soon as the car began
bouncing around in such a fearful
manner, cutting the ties off, and the
rail spikes, the passengers began TO
run for the platform, but were held
back, on account OF the danger of
falling off the train. Had the engine
caught in the broken rail, the result
would have been very serious, as the
cars would have piled up along the
track. Brakeman Palmer says that it
was in all 4 miraculous escape, no
one receiving serious injury, though
ore poor lady having three or four
small children on board, suffered very
much from the fright. / happened TO
have a flask OF wine in my grip, and
after dTaught &C that she became
calm Had the train gone a short
distance farther. we would no doubt
have been answering for our past
conduct in ether realms.

PROVO, Aug. A japanese tramp
was run over and killed by the Rio

ne should die which will be done. No

MONTANA REPUBLICANS.
They Meet, Say Bitter Things, and
Finally Reach n Compromise.
LSnenial to The Hera Id


Especial to The Herald.)
BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 4.-On invitation
of Senator Lee Mantle. chairman of the
state Republican central committee. rep
resentative members of the party to the
number of several hundred were in Sc
cret conference here all day and late
into the night discussing the political sit
uation and the advisability of putting
Mckinley electors into the field this fall.
The conference was not in session half
an hour before it was manifest that
there was a strong sentiment against
the action of Senator Mantle and Con-
gresham Hartman in declaring for
Bryan, and some rather bitter things
were said of them by ex-Senators San
ders and Powers.
Speeches were made by them, and Pow
ers accused Mantle Of having packed the
conference, and the feeling on both sides
became so strong that an adjournment
was taken until o'clock.
During the recess a compromise was
reached to the effect that when the state
convention meets the state ticket will
first be nominated and then the silver
Republicans viii draw out of the con-
yention, leaving the gold men to put up
+he Mckinley electors. This will keep
the boiling Republicans a chance to re-
main within the party organization and
wifi also keep the organization intact in
the state. The compromise was agreAd

THE BLIND, DEAF AND MUTE.

The trustees of the state school for
the deaf, dumb and blind held meet
ing yesterday. Mr.. Stratford, Mr.. Carl
son and Mrs. Emerson were present,
together with Superintendent Metcalf
The contract for putting the steam
heating fixtures into the building was
let to Doyle & Halverson for $2,4OO,
they being the lowest bidders. They
are expected to begin work at once,
though the reform school boys will not
be moved out for perhaps month.
The secretary was authorized to ad-
vertise for plumbing and general re-
pairs, and to employ teacher for the
blind, subject to the approval OF the
board.
The board members and superintend-
ent are very anxious to get into the
building at an early date, and open the
school. Last year there were about 90
pupils, but this year doubtless there
will be over 100, as last. year only the
deaf and dumb were taught, while this
year the blind also will be educated
under tie same supervision.

TWO GREAT STRIKES.
Browning's Gun Finds Favor in
Mexico-The silver Mine b.
panZn

NJ. ;. Browning returned early yes
terday morning from Mexico, whittier
he went to exhibit the famous Peace
maker gun TO commission appointed
by the Mexican government, and TO
look after his mining interests.
His success with the gun has been in
part noted in The Herald, but Mr..
Browning's modest account of the test
shows it to have been even more sue
cessful than the reports published. The
gEn. as on all other occasions, did
magnificent work, showing speed and
accuracy almost marvellous. The mem
bers OF the commission frankly stated
to MI Browning that they thought the
gun the most nearly perfect invention
OF the kind ever invented and that they
would SO report to their government
AS to the mining business, it may not
be generally known that the BroWningS,
together with David Kay and H. l..
Griffin, are interested in a very rich
silver producing mine about 200 miles
north of the City of Mexico. The mine
is no mere prospect, but has been devel-
oped to q considerable extent. Three
Mexican gentlemen are partners with
the ogden men in this celebrated mine,
known as La Columbia. Mr. Browning
says that preparations are being made
f. put a mill on the ground to aid in
extracting the silver. There is much
ore in sight, and it assays very high.
Mr. Browning does not say just how
high the assays run, but the impression
is abroad that La Columbia is a second
Ontario.
Regarding the people of Mexico. Mr..
Browning thinks them quite fortunate
and happy. They are enjoying greater
prosperity than for many years and
while their pay is small, still their
wants are few. They have magnificent
churches in which they take great pride,
but their houses are little else than
novels. These facts. of course, are true
only of the working classes.

MIR. RR0WN,s MACHINE.

Some weeks ago a description was
given in these columns of machine
Tor elevating ice devised by Francis
A. Brown of this city. The machine
constructed by him is in use by the
Union Pacific company every day and
works a great saving of time and ex-
pense. The patent for the device has
not yet reached Mr.. Brown, but is 60
ing through the regular routine OF the
patent Office. Mr. Brown is arranging
to construct machines for several par
ties, including some more machines for
the railroads. An ordinary machine
200 feet long costs about 5000.

Der of the national executive commit
tee of the Peoples party. has issued
a challenge to Bishop John P. New
man of San Francisco to name a single
Populist who is an anarchist.
Washburn's letter is in reply to a
newspaper report. which stated that
Bishop Newman had made state
ment to the effect that the Populists
are no better than anarchists, and are
not good American citizens.
Washburn, in his letter, says:
Let me inform you that 80 per cent
of the Populist party are native born
American citizens, comprising mostly
the sturdy farming element, which for
years the statesmen of both old par
ties proudly alluded to as the bone and
sinew and stability of the country.
These men are intelligent, patriotic
and true. and now are called anarch
lists because they have begun to think,
and the result Of their thinking will be
