DUBOIS TO BLAME
Silver Republicans Not Sur
prised at Course of
EVENTS OVER In IDAHO.
Resignation of Hoke' Smith
Has Been Accepted.
EVENTS OVER IN IDAHO.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Some of the
silver leaders in Washington are not at
all surprised at the course of events in
Idaho, where the populist and democrats
have fused, leaving the silver republicans
to flock by themselves. One who has
recently returned from the West says the
result is largely due to the course that
Senator Dubois has pursued in Idaho.
Instead of cutting loose from the repub
lican party, Senator Dubois and his
friends went into the republican conven-
ton and carried it by one maj ority, and
instead of organizing az silver party or
inviting fusion, maintained their recogni-
ton as republicans. The populists and
democrats claim that any republican Or
ganization ought to be for Mckinley if it
claimed the name, and insisted that Du'
bois must leave the republican party, as
Teller and Pettigrew have done. There
has been great deal Of hostility between
Dubois and the other parties, and the
populists and democrats say that ii they
elect Dubois as senator they could not be
sure that be would remain with them.
The silver men here say they have in
formation that the Bryan electoral ticket
will carry the state and that the antagon-
ism is moro personal to Dubois than any
thing else.

MCCONNELL IN JAIL.

"George f. Mcdonnell, the defaulting

city Yesterday in the custody Of Detective
Cody, says Mondays Portland Oregon

OF Rossland, B. c., over week ago, by

AS Judge Stevens was going up there, he
was directed to hunt him up and cause
his arrest, which he did Mcconnell

Portland voluntarily, and he kept his
word In that respect
Detective Cody did not go to Rossland
but proceeded to Northport, In Washing

land, and close to the Britiah line. The
marshal Of Roesland sent Mcdonnell over
to meet the Portland officer. Mcconnell
was given the choice by the marthal OF
Rossland Of returning voluntarily or OF

would doubtless not have availed him.
The authority Of the marshal is supreme
in Roeeland, and if he vas determined
to hold Mcconnell, and he expressed
himself that be was, McConell's only
chance for release would have been in q
process OF court in Victoria or some other
place with jurisdiction extending over
Rossland. This, situated as he was,

Just One VIII Starve

The Herald for the past month has
been under the charge Of Pollock q Nc"
Gully. During that time we have en-.
dured the pangs of hunger and the cross
looks OF our creditors as best we could.
At meeting Of the stockholders on last
Wednesday it was thought best that the
company be dissolved and one of the
editors retire and thus save the expense
of two funerals and at the same time save
to the county one OF the brilliant minds.
Accordingly papers we're drawn up where.
by G. E. McCully retires and Ed. A. Pol.
lock again becomes sole owner and man
ager. Mr.. McCully did not leave be-
cause he thought the remaining member
OF the firm to be moro capable OF con-
duciing the paper, but because he thought
that not being used to 1t he could net
survive as long on the scant fare which
an editor is enabled to provide for him
self. AS long as we have sufficient
strength we shall endeavor to keep the
paper up to the present standard and we
trust our readers will give us their aid in
as much as they can by telling us all
they know about their neighbcrs.--

guilty OF numbering lake Malquist, at
Riparia. He will be hanged for the
crime. The case was given 10 the jury
this morning, and after being out one
hour and 20 minutes, and taking five bal
lots, the jury returned verdict Of guilty
in the first degree. The prisoner took
the verdict cody and evinced no supriee.
He scarcely took his eyes from the floor,
and even when his attorneys moved for
new trial, did not look up
The murder charged was most brutal
and heinous one. On the 18th day OF
July he entered the saloon of Jacob NAL
quist' at Texas Ferry, while no one was
near, and killed the proprietor, So years
old, with hervy club, robbed him oi
$3.50 and come minor articles. He at
tempted TO run sway, but was caught
two miles away by pursures who followed
him as soon as the crime was discovered
The only excuse offered for the crime
was intoxication and self-defense. A
new trial will be asked but not urged
and sentence OF death will probably b'
passed and executed without delay.
