TRAGEDY AT CENTERVILLE.
William Walton Stabbed to Death by Charley
Stone.

Stone
At Centerville, about $50 O'Clock,
September 18th, William Walton was
stabbed to death by Charles Stone.
1t appears the killing was an out
growth of difficulty of long standing
between the two men, They had a
claim called the June Bug i'll Walker
gulch. There was difficulty between
them and in an encounter of some kind
two months ago Stone got two ribs
broken. He had Walton arrested and
the case was heard before Judge Hart
but it was dismissed as there were no
other witnesses.
More recently Stone made a contract
for water from the Wilson ditch. This
was not approved by Walton. The men
met today at Meffert's saloon and high
words passed between them, They
went outside and continued the quar-
reu Stone cursed Walton and talked
very roughly to him. Walton finally
made a break at him and he ran, Wal
ton closely following. The chase CON
tinued to the house Of c. A. Walker,
It is said Walton struck Stone as they
reached the house, and it was then he
was stabbed, though no one saw the
fatal blow delivered. Walton started
back. went about 20 feet and fell. Some
men who had seen the chase had FOL
lowed and arrived in a moment. They
turned Walton over and found he was
already dead. Stone remained at Wal
ker's and was arrested there some three
hours later. The killing was done with
a Finch dirk.
Walton was young man, unmar
ried. Stone is well known IN BOISE
Boise Statesman.

THE CURSE OF FUSION.
The Leading POpuIIst Paper Hiss Eisd Great Big
PLAINLY.

the Leading POPulist PapsF Hss Fisd Great Bic
Plenty.
Fusion for principle has been a
favorite cry of great many peo-
pie during the past six years, but
at last the time has come when
even the most rabid of the fusion
lists are compelled to admit the
total failure of such political
methods. Fusion for principle is
a beautiful sentiment theoretically,
but practically applied fusion has
always and will continue to be
disgraceful scramble for spoils,
Fusion of political parties means
but one result, the weaker party
must invariably succumb to the
absorbing tendencies of the stron-
ger, brought about by the weak
ening of party ties, the shattering
of faith among the masses in car
dinal political principles, and the
natural disgust felt by the ordi-
nary voter for the Office seeking
tendencies of the average politi-
clan. The Peoples party, more
than any other that ever before
came into existence, has felt the
whitening blight of fusion. This
party grew to splendid proper
tons in its early years through
the inherent right and justice Of
its platform; in 1892, after but
four months of existence it carried
five states in the union, more than
could be done this year, and from
that day to this the ranks have
been torn and shattered through
fusion. This year, in every state,
the party has been split on the
same rock of fusion, until it is but
a remnant of it's former strength
and power. Six years of disaster
to party born in the interest o
the people should be lessor
enough to men who are in The
party through belief in the eco
nomic right of its principles, bu
so long as voters will blindly fol-
low where traitors lead, there viii
be plenty of men who will loudl,
proclaim the same old imbecil'
cry of "fusion for principle" whil
fighting for front place in tn
trough of public pap. The write
has advocated fusion or co-opera
ton of reform parties in the past
under the belief that reform legis
lation could be enacted. For fou
, years fusion has gone on apace
and neither in the nation or an,
of the states have any of the de
sired reforms been brought abou

Very Respectfully Yours,
(Signed) GEORGE j. LEWIS,
Secretary of State.

The action OF the secretary was based
upon an opinion secured by him from
Attorney General Mcfarland. After
stating the case, the attorney generals
opinion says:
Each of these documents purports
to be the certificate of nomination OF
the Peoples party convention of the
state of Idaho OF candidates for the
various state offices to be filled at the
coming election, and by Endorsement
thereon is so denominated.
"The certificates are not signed by
the same chairman and secretary.
Neither of them pretend' or at
tempts to designate the principle which
the convention or party represented.

there can be two parties in the state

ment.
Mr.. Lewis announced his decision in
the following communication.
Boise, Sept. Is, 1898 To Henry A.

ferring to document presented by you

you that, after careful consideration

m, there was presented at this Office,
certificate of nomination by the peo-
pies party, III regular form, which was

instant.
From the document now under con-
sideratiOn, since offered for filing, it APP
pears that there are two parties in the
state representing the same principles
and bearing identically the same name
There is nothing before me by which il
is made to appear that the conventions
issuing such certerflcates represented
different parties and different princi
pies, and the filing of the aforesaid GER
tiicate precludes the filing OF the latter
The law plainly indicates that there
shall bo but one division for each polit
ical principle or party on the otlicia
ballot, and believing it is my duty tC
exercise any necessary caution to pre-
vent violation of the statutes in prep
arat;0n of same, l hereby decline to file
and certify the said certificate of nom

The Growth of Savings.

The charge is frequently made that
the people of the United States, all
classes included, have grown extrava-
CANT, that they have lost the simplicity
and thrift characteristic of the early
days of the nation. These asseI tions
are not borne ont by the savings bank
statistics. In 1920 there were only 8, $50
savings bank depositors in the United
States, having an aggregate deposit of
81, 1873, 900, while in 1897 there were
5,203, 900 depositors with deposits ag-
gregating 81, $50, 600, 600. In 1920 the
average deposit was Sl25, while that of
1897 was 1915, whioh is three times as
large as that of 1920 and is larger than
that of any European country today.
The savings banks of the United States
have an aggregate deposit twice as large
as that of Germany. and Germany leads
both England and France. Exchange

Soldiers and the Mustache.

The mustache first became common
in the British army at the beginning OF
the present century. The hussars adopt.
ed it, and not long afterward the Ian
GERS 1t was not until the beginning OF
the Russian war that the infantry
adopted the mustache. Whiskers disap-
peared after 1870 and at present the
mustache has come under the queen S
regulations for all branches of the serv-
ice. So much so indeed that only year
ago the authorities at the horse guards
learned with indignation that young
officers in certain regiments did not
sufficiently cultivate the growth of
mustaches by emitting to shave the up
per lip, in consequence of which gen
eral officers commanding have now in.
structions to suppress such irregulari-
ties by any means that they may think
necessary. "
