LEWISTON, Aug. l9.-Frank Biles, q
half-breed Indian from Nez Perce res
ervation, was taken from Asotin Jail
at II o'clock last night and hanged by
mob of indignant citizens. His
crime was the brutal criminal outrage
of Miss Mary Richardson, a young
woman II years of age. Miss Richard

was in delicate health, and had been
visiting friends in this vicinity, yes.

She rode horseback, and was unattend-

Oy Biles and two Indians from the res

little while Biles left the other Indians
and rode back to the unfortunate
young lady. Riding alongside of her,
he grabbed her horses bride and at

the road into some bushes. She re-

and ran screaming from the villain.
Biles ran after her, and caught her by

"FOOL"- FRIENDS

There never was campaign in
which candidate for president was
loaded down with as many "fooln sup
porters as is Major Mckinley at the
present time. Ever since his opponent
was nominated at Chicago, the support
ers Of Mckinley have heaped TRADE
of abuse upon those who oppose them,
and have pursued bul.dozing system
of tactic to force the common people to
their support. No epithet has been
too vile for them to apply to those who
have had the temerity to raise their
voices against the attempt OF the cor.
porations and trusts to more firmly fix
their hold upon the reins of govern
ment, by the election of president
whom they have bound firmly in their
interest. Jacob Wallnes, San Fran
cisco wool broker, who has for years
been living off the fat he has fried out
of the wool growers, comes to the re-
relief of Mckinley, ,adyocoting his elec.
tion as penacia to cure the ills of the
wool raisers, and substantiates isposi-
tion by asserting that those who op-
pose the major are anarchists, social.
lists and free silver looms"
How will such s'choice" language
suit the silver republicans who are
wayering between the question of sup
porting the republicans nominee, even
though they do not endorse the finan-
cial plank Of the national, platform,
and supporting candidate for presi-
dent who voices their views on the
money question? Will they meekly
submit to abuse that is heaped upon
them and follow the lead Of their ira
ducers? Will they support the candi
date whose .henchmen denounc them as
traitors because they have views of
their own? Or will they throw off
party yoke, and resent the insults of
Major vcKinley's "fool' friends? The

d MEXICAN OBJECT LESSON

While the Republican press OF the
United States and s. good many cam.
paign orators are pointing to Mexico
as an "object lesson" to prove tie un-
stable condition that exist in silver
country, the Mexican press is also
drawing picture of conditions in the
United States, comparing them with
affairs in Mexico, that furnish rather
interesting reading during these un'
settled times. We copy the following
editorial which appeared recently In
the Mexican Finsncier, q leading
journal of the City of Mexico, which
throws some light upon the prosperity
of silver country:
"The ignorance of some OF the edi'
tors of the United States concerning
the sffairs of Mexico is appalling.
They believe they have advanced the
cause of gold monometalism which
they advocate by pointing to Mexico
as sr example which should not Do fol-

HOW II GIN BE DONE.

The probability of an agreement
being reached between the state COM
mittees of the democratic and populist
parties. whereby fusion can be ar
ranged on the. electoral ticket, seems
to be remote, since outside influences
are being brought to bear to prevent
the same. Thus the will of the major
ity is liable to be thwarted by the acts
of the executive. committees; that Is,
the Bryan vote of the state which
would otherwise be consolidated, may
be divided through the meddling OF
uninterested parties, if the matter is
left exclusively with the respective
executive committees. However,
should they fail to reach an agreement.
the rank and file of the two parties have
it In their power to effect compromise
whereby the voice of the masses eau
be heard and expressed. If the state
committees are unable to agree upon
setting aside two demo cratic and two
populist nominees for electors, the
county committees can take the matter
in hand and agree among themselves
to support two each Of the, electors on
the different tickets and thus the
vote that ia desired to be cast for
Bryan can be consolidated, regardless
of the efforts of the Oregonian and its
clique to prevent 1t. For instance,
the democrats and populists in every
county can arrange to vote for two
each of the electors nominated by the
different parties, and thus effect
fusion independent OF the leaders. It
is unquestionably the desire OF nine
tenth of the populists and democrats
that the vote of Oregon be counted for
Bryan, and If Mr.. Young and Mr..
Starr are unable to arrive at compro-
mise whereby this may result, the rank
and file of the two parties can easily
arrange the matter themselves. Their
will need not be frustrated on account
Of the prejudice Of a few, bosses.

REAPING WHAT THEY SOWED

Four years ago the late Governor
Russell, Of Massachusetts, speaking
| In manufacturing center upon tariff
reform, to an audience largely com.
posed ofrepublican prosectionists, said:
"You are asking government by law
to add to your wealth and, prosperity;
{, tax the people to give you profit: to
| burden them to make you rich. If she
cln do this for you, she can and must
for any class who, by influence or corr
ruption, can control her legislation.
Take care. You are sowing the wind;
you will reap the whirlwind. What
will you say to the silver mine owner
who demands that government by force
shall add value to his product? What
| to the farmer who demands that gov
ernment shall take under its fostering
care his grain and cotton, and bank
upon his crop? There is no answer to
this question, if republican protection
is sound and safe principle"
What Governor Russell foresaw as
the result of the favored classes asking
too much is now being realized. The
wind has been sown, and now We are
on the eve of threshing the whirlwind.
The people have been educated to be-
lieve the government is powerful
enough to extend its fostering care
around certain industries, by the en-
actment Of high protective laws, and
make them profitable, therefore they
demand that this paternal principle
be extended to every industry. They
have been taught that the business of
the manufacturer could be made more
profitable by legislation, and now they
clamor for legislation that will extend
like benefits to them.
Those engaged in silver mining see
in the opening Of the government
mints to the unrestricted coinage of |
silver an increased market for their
product, and following the example of |
the manufacturer, insist that this mar
ket be supplied oy legislation,
The sugar planters of the South were |
educated by the Eastern manufacturers
to believe government paternalism
was beneficial, hence they demanded a |
bounty on their sugar, and when it was |
removed they clamored for its re-en-
actment. The cotton raiser of the |
South and the wheat grower of the |
West have been told by the advocates |
of gold standard that the free coin
age of silver will raise the price Of their |
cotton and wheat in dollars, and. also |
having accepted the doctrines of the |
protectionists that the government |
Is powerful, is able by legislation
to enhance and maintain high values
of protected products, therefore they
demand that the government extend !
its fostering care over their business
and give them the free coinage OF sill.
YER that the price Of their products
may be increased.
In short, the mine owners, the cotton
planters, the wheat raisers are only
asking what the protectionists have
for thirty years been vigorously pro-
testing the manufacturers should have.
For thirty years the manufacturers
have been sowing the seeds which they
are now called upon to reap. They
have educated US to believe the govern
ment is powerful enough to stimulate
business in one line, and now we are
demanding that the same fostering
care be extended to us all.
