S. D. TAYLOR, Editor and Proprieto
BENEDICT ARNOLDS.

The treason of certain delegates
from Kootenai county to the state
convention has been the one topic
of conversation throughout the
county this week. And such dam
nable treason! We did not expect
anything better of Bill Ryan,
as, being an out and out anti
Dubois man, it was natural that if
he secured proxy, he would dis
obey the mandate of the county
convention and misrepresent the
people. AS to Crane, it is well
known that he was bitter pill for
the HERALD to swallow when nom
ina ted, but we did believe that in
as much as Senator Dubois had
given him his bread and butter for
the past two years, and that he
helped to organize the convention
Us Dubois convention, he would
at least remain loyal to the Senator,
which was the main point we had
in view His reasonable course is
is simply damnable. Concerning.
G. B. King, we thought up to date
of the Boise convention that he was
a man. But when we recall the
conversations we have had with him
one Just before the Pocatello con-
vention, and the other the day of
the Ceur d Alene convention-we
will be charitable and simply say
that we made a mistake in sizing
up G. B. King. Last we have to
mention J. l. Barnes. This dele
gate pledged himself TO the people
of his precinct when he was elected
to the county convention in favor
of Dubois. He has always profess
sed to be a follower of the Senator
He knows that there is not a
dozen republicans in Bonner's Ferry
and the entire Kootenai Valley that
does not endorse the senator and
favor his reelection. Yet Barnes
went to the state convention on a
proxy and there did everything in
his power detrimental to the in
terests of Senator Dubois and totally
and entirely misrepresented the
Kootenai Valley. We repeat, suol
conduct is damnable.
The HERALD cheerfully accords
to others the same right it claims
for itself-the right to its politica
convictions. Any man has a RICH
to oppose the reelection of Senator
Dubois and to favor the gold stand
ard if he honestly believes it tc b,
for the best interests Of the state
but no man holding those politica
sentiments has a right to accept
sacred trust from a silver conven

An enterprising bird over in Sble-

nest for itself entirely of steel This
little Swiss town is famous for its
matchmaking industries, and it is cbm-
mon there to see big piles Of brok Ken
watch springs in the watch factbry
yards. These birds knew q good thing
when they saw it. They gathered to-
gether all the little bits Of steel they
needed and then wove them together
into nest in the branch of a neatby
tree. The curious prickly looking 1tst
attracted attention recently. 1t vas
picked up and presented to the vil4ge
museum.
The metal nest measures four indies
in diameter. Inspection shows that 1t
must have taken long time to put It
together. 1t Is evident that the little
pieces Of steel had to be tied in a gtat
many different positions before hey
could be made to hold firmly.
The birds have shown wOnderfu1in-
genuity in fitting the parts together.
