Senator John VI. Thurston in his
Baltimore speech of the 2nd inst. con
Guides that the republicans are already
defeated on tie gold standard with the
country and will lose the next election.
He said: I'VE shall no be stampeded
or frightened If history repeats itself at
the next congressional election and re-
turns a congress in opposition to the adj
minlstratiou. | believe the republican
party Is in danger of loosing the next
congress and. So believing, it would be
cowardly or my part rot to say So.
The DAILY LEADER said about a year
ago wheE Senator Thurston first an
nouLced that he himself would not be a
candidate for reelection that the real
reason for his decision that he knew
he could not be reelected if lie wanted
to be. and now Mr.. Ihurston's eyes have
been opened still further and be sees
that d majority Of gold standard repub-
licans canuot be elected at the next con-
gressional election. Congressman after
a while will perhaps learn to do what the
people and not the money changers want
them to do.

for which Tanner paid the pen.
Atty was the killing of H.
A. Call of Worthington, Mimi,
and William Lee, of Massachu-
setts. The expedition consisted of 40
men aud M. +. Tanner had joined them
in Seattle, on their way north. He
was supplied with an outfit, and taken
INTO membership, but unmindful of
that fact, he vas quarrelsome, and so
overbearing that his companions de.
cided that he must Leave the party.
On the evening of Jan. /, a meeting
was held in Calls tent, and during the
conference the statement was made:
Tanner rhe Them.
1--WE must get rid of Tanner; let him
take his share of the outfit and shift
for himself. We are up here for bust.

There were foul men at the meeting,
and no sooner had the remark been
made than the flag Of the little tent
was pulled aside. The cowboy stood
there, 6.shooter in hand.
boys, I overheard your talk about
me, he said, deliberately. "I'm here
for business"
Before his victims realized what had
happened, Tanner had shot twice and
the bullets pierced Call and Lee
through the chest. Tanner fired again,
but his preceding shot had extinguished
the candle and the bullet did not take
effect. One Of the remaining members
crouched down behind some baggage
and the other, cutting his way out of
the tent, gave the alarm. Tanner, sup.

was not long before he was surrounded.
You'd better surrender your gun"
was called out to him.
"If you say SO boys, I'll do it," was
his response, and he then handed over
his weapon. The miners at once
convened ana by an overwhelming
majority decided that Tanner should
be hanged. There was some discussion
of the question of shooting him, but
the majority decided on the rope.
When notified OF the decision, Tanner
observed that he hoped they would not
%tantallze him by stringing him up and
letting him down again before he was
dead. He was led out Of the snow dur.
ing the early morning. He fearlessly
allowed the rope to be tied about his
neck, and SO met his doom. He Was
buried face downward.
\. c. Lobbe of San Francisco, Who
witnessed the execution, said he never
saw such an exhibition of nerve. Tan.
ner declined to make a statement other
than to say that at 8 years of age he
wa left an orphan. Cali and Lee had
families.
