ties have been broken up for the time,
If not forever; they have lost their
identity; old associations are shaken
up and the parties, in some cases, have
been made over. Fusion and confusion
are the order of the day. The race is
for office, not within party lines, but
by combinations, pledges and prom
ises, and some of them are unrighteous
and unjust pledges and promises.
THE NEWS is panied at these condi-
tons, but the die is cast: the Rubicon
is crossed, and it is question whether
the old party organizations in the State
will ever be revived. But with all the
bewildering, perplexing and fatiguing
complications, it has this consolation:
1t recognizes the National authority; it
is in touch with the National party,
and it has never and will never, in any
manner, surrender the old Democratic
principles and policies, az long as it
believes them to be for the best interests
of the people.
Under these changed conditions there
is only one gateway opening into the
right road as we understand the right
road. In local matters let the voters
be guided by their best Judgment and
let them vote for the best men as they
understand them TO be the best. The
tickets offer good men, and as party
principles have been thrown outside
the breastworks. rs party policies have
been lost in the shuttle OF the cards for
the deal for office, let every voter BE-
honest with himself, honest with his
family and honest with his fellow men
and vote for such men only as are fitted
for the Offices for which they art
named.

An Encouraging Admission.

The Washington Post Is generally
conceded TO be the fairest Of oil the
papers which claim TO be independent,
though 1t has decided leaning to-
wards Mckinley and the gold standard.
The Post recently published an esti-
mate OF the result Of the Presidential
election in which It gave Bryan 2O5
vote g and Mckinley 1876, and placed In
the doubtful column Illinois, Maryland,
Delaware, West Virginia, Minnesota,
Michigan and Kentucky, with II votes.
Out of these States Bryan must get 10
to win and Mckinley must get 80.

Democrats Supporting Dubois.

There are many Democrats in Koot-
enai county who intend to keep IN line
with the Democratic national committee
and will support the Electors Demo-
cratic ticket az well as the Dubois leg
islative ticket, says the Occur d'Alene
Sun. The Demo-Pop fusion politicians
not the honest rank and file Of these
parties-are anxious to disguise this
fact, well knowing that the fusion Is
simply for division Of the offices and
that the wool must be pulled over the
eyes of the people in order to prevent
their combination from going to pieces
completely before election day arrives.
1t is in the air, it is everywhere, that
Dubois, Bryan and silver are INSOFAR
ably linked together and that those OPP
posed to one are not true friends Of the
other. The Silver Republican ticket,
from top TO bottom, represent all three
Of these and will receive the support Of
all Democrats, Populists and Republic
cans who are earnestly and sincerely
working for the free coinage OF silver.
Our Democratic and Populists friends
who are standing on this platform show
their loyalty to principle above party
as have those Silver Republicans who
support Bryan. The people have been
fooled long enough. Suppressed tele-
grams and letters from national commit
tee headquarters win not help the fu-
sion cause. Evening Mail.

THE TRIALS.

LONDON. April 30-5 a. MAT this
hour short installment of long mes
sage from Pretoria has been received
here which appears to confirm a dis
patch from Pretoria published in the
Paris Temps of yesterday which is to
the effect that kilograms were put in as
evidence during the trials of the re-
formers, which, from a cipher discover
ed in DR.. Jameson's baggage after the
fight at Doonkoop, and the surrender of
the raiders, prove the completely of the
chartered South African company with
the johannesburg reform leaders, and
Dr. Jameson. They also prove that the
chartered company had opened a credit
for 100000 pounds in the name Of Col
onel Francis Rhodes, at Johannesburg
to organize the raid and that the Lon
don Times has cabied TO the Cape to the
effect that action in the Jameson af-
fair would be prudent.
The Times today fatty denies the lat
ter assertion. The Pretoria dispatch to
the Temps further adds that documents
in possession of the Transvaal govern
ment compromise notable personages
and officials in charge of the English
army.

HAMMoND's CASE.
Pleas Made in His BehnIf-His Broth

CHICAGO, April 29.-Charles Billings,
a mining engineer of this city and a
friend of John Hays Hammond of San
Francisco, in the latter's behalf tele-
graphed United States Senator James
Mcmillan as follows:
I'm the name of humanity, I beseech
you to do everything in your power
to save the life of John Hays Ham
mond. 1 knew him to be honest and
upright. Reasonable action justifying
the death penalty could not be per-
formed by such a man as he is. APP
peal ITO you because know your warm
heart will go out towards a fellow
countrynan placed in such a position
as Hammond finds himself in.
Il can hardly be called personal
friend of Mr. Hammond" said Mr. Bill
lings. Il met him some years ago at
the Institute of Mining Engineering in
New York, but like everyone knew him
slightly. I came to admire him. It is
needless to say that his standing as
mining engineer is of the very high
est, and as a man he is known to pos
sess the highest sense of honor.
think every one of his countrymen hay
ing influence should bestir himself to
the end that his life be saved
Il know John Hays Hammond init
mately," says John L. SdoUghteling of
the firm of Houghteling- Peabody In
vestment company. He was class
mate of mine, being a member of the
class of re at Yale.
Il have not the slightest fear that
a sentence of death will be carried out
either in his case or the others. When
they consented to plead guilty to the
charge of treason, / believe there was
an understanding as to what the pun
ishment was TO be. I think the pur-
pose of the sentence is to assert the
dignity and independence of the Trans
vaal"

Not Be Taken in by n Bluff.
CHICAGO, April 29-W. E. Holland.
judge advocate of the South African
republic, is at present visiting in this
city. In an interview last night he
said neither the United States nor
England could scare President Krue-
ger into committing the sentences i'm
posed on the prisoners sentenced at
Pretoria for high treason against that
republic.
ANY bullying on the part of either
government" he said, would seal the
death warrants of the prisoners. If.
on the other hand, the American ana
English governments will leave Pres
ident Kruger and his executive coun-
Gil alone, and if the friends of the
condemned men will respectfully pc
tition for clemency, the sentences will
be committed to minimum, now that
the ends Of justice have been salts
fed"
In speaking of the pleadings, Judge
Holland said:
1.-The prisoners were defended by
Counselor Vessels, who is leader of
the bar, and l have no doubt that
they were advised to plead guilty, as
plea of not guilty would have aggra-
waited the crime. They nave evidently
been advised to trust to the clemency
of the executive.
THE judge had no alternative but to
pass the death sentence on the prison.
ers on their pleading or their being
found guilty by jury, which would
have been invaluable in case of a
trial The judge was not a judge of
the Transvaai but a justice invited
from a neighboring state to try the
prisoners in order to avoid any bias
or prejudice and that the trial might
be entirely impartial. Judge Deveil-
lers was bachelor of law of London
and is now in the Orange Free STATE.
He is a brother of the renowned chief
justice of Cape Colony. In the Trans
vaal a person must plead in person.
Counsel is never allowed to plead for
his client. Where the statute laws do
not apply, or where there is no statute
law, the old Roman-Dutch laws are
resorted to. Condemnation to death
does not carry with it confiscation of
property, unless there is an order in
the sentence to that effect, which is
very seldom the case. I am satisfied
that there will be no confscation In
the present cases, even if the sentences
are carried out"
