His Record Against Him

Captain James Graham Of Occur
d'Alene, is the fusion candidate
for congress, and as such he stands
upon platform which denounces
the war in the Philippines and the
administration policy ofexpansion.
Unfortunately for Captain Graham,
what he really thinks Of the Phil
ippine question Is matter of pub
lie record. When the Idaho's re-
turned from Manila and Captain
Graham's company was given a
pnbli> reception at his home in
Kootenai, the gallant captain
was orator of the occasion and
hurled the walls ofhis wrath at the
feads of the anti-imperialists, who
by their traitorous utterances ex-
cited and encouraged the insur-
gents to continue their work oil
rapine, plumber and blood shed.
The question now is will Captain
Graham, stand by his speech Of
Oct. or will he repudiate his own
convictions and stand by the policy
OF the democratic platform. Here
is what Captain Graham though,
last October:
I'VE return to you, with the con.
ciousness of having done our whole
duty. and that is sufficient and
gratifying enough Tor us. and from
the appearance of this demonstra-
ton, for you" Captain Graham
discussed the war and the causes
which led up,to it and paid a glow
ing tribute to the work of the Ida,
no volunteers. He told ofthe hard
ships endured by the boys in camp,
in march, In bivouac, in trenches,
in a tropical cline, in battle under
the burning sun, and asked the
audience to join with him In letting
the unchanged lightning of an out
ragged nations wrath strike with
eternal blasting, Atkinson Of Bos-
ton and others of his way of think
ing He claimed that Atkinson
applied the epithets of murderer
and assassin to the creates. aud

Gov. Roosevelt's denunciation
of the Kansas City convention can
not be twisted into charge that
democrats are towards. Even the
convention is not responsible for
that platform. Three-fourth Of
the delegates wanted something
else, but Bryan reduced them to
silence with his imperialistic club
Lewiston teller. [volume] (Lewiston, North Idaho) 1878-1900, 1900-08-13

The democrats Of Idaho were,
for the past week in the hands Of
the national committees Of the
three elements Of the fusion. The
various candidates on the state
ticket are breathlessly awaiting
their fate. # Bryan, the boss,
says come down to any democrat
on the state ticket and give place
TO a popnlist the luckless demo
Ecrat will yield to the inevitable.
The conclave of last resort has
been IN session in Chicago aud
sealed orders have been issued.
Senator Heitfeld is now coming to
Idaho with the destiny of certain
candidates in his big inside coat
pocket. The senator has been
made state fusion dictator for the
coming campaign under Bryan.
Our Nez Perez senator Is one of
the biggest Of Bryanites. He
holds not only the fate OF local
candidates in his hands. but he is
recognized as the custodian of the
hopes of his party as far as Idaho
is concerned He is head and
shoulders above Dubois now.
The ex-senator is willing, and
even anxious, to serve the dicta-
tor, but then he side-tracked the
silver republican party voters in
the past four years so effectively
that he has lost his stock in trade
at home. Dubois name is now
sung only in the eastern states,
where rs to is still sort of side
show novelty. Senator Heitfeid
will be a great big goose in the
noisy Idaho fusion duck pond.

"Instead of leading in the singing OF
Heaven Is My Home will now tame
Flying Devil, a vicious broncho owned
by Brother Smith"
This is the way Evangelist William
Mullen, who has come to Chicago to
point out the errors of the ways pur
sued by residents, begins his meetings
says the New York Sun. The Rev. Mr.
Mullen combines the art of busting
bronchos with that of saving maynard
souls. He says religion nowadays has
to have some side attraction, and the
large crowds that he draws lead to the
conclusion that he is right.
He holds his meetings in the open air
in places that give him ample scope for
his equestrian exhibitions. When he
appears upon the platform that is his
pulpit, he is not very ministerial look
ing figure. He wears corduroy coat
q sombrero and high heeled boots. The
evangelist offers a prayer, then takes
off his coat. A brOncho is led up in
front Oh tne SpuCe reservoir LUZ Tue uuA-
ious bench, and the audience is imme-
diatcly interested. When the wild horse
is tanned and the owner las paid the
small fee, which is the only collection
taken up, the broncho busting evangel-
list puts on his coat, wipes his heated
brow with his handkerchief and says
his topic will be "Going to Hell at a

lie has a keen eye and pleasant
face. and when he opens the Bible to
read few verses of Scripture there is
not n person in the audience who has
the hardihood to walk away before the
sermon. There is something in the
preachers manner that forbds any
trifling. His exhibition of what he can
do with horse has caused people to
respect him. Mullen was formerly a

He was also intrusted with messages

General Gaselce stating that the Chi

the japanese general giving the exact

General Cox Quelled a Mutiny.

General Cox was q good discipline
ran. but he never clustered and was
never severe. On one occasion several
officers called at his headquarters and
stated to him that they would not
promise to march their men up the mar
row river valley. He sent them to their
quarters and said nothing of their inn
pertinence until after the war.
While in camp at Gauley bridge his
quartermaster general shot private
10 the Second Kentucky. The men Of
the regiment escaped the control of the
officers and made rush to kill the
quartermaSter, who had been taken to
CoX's headquarters. Cox saw the men
coming, but instead of ordering the
guards to fire on them he ran toward
them alone. barehcadcd and unarmed.
He reached a gap in Il stone wall ahead
Of the 800 or 600 furious armed men
and stopped them. He explained that
they might kill him, but they could not
pass.
Strengthening to his full height, he
said, "Your general, unarmcd. as you
see, orders you to remember that you
are soldiers and obey" Much to the
surprise of the score of anxious officers
watching the parley, the men returned
to their camp. Cox sent for Il company
from another regiment, which guarded
the prisoner to the lower camp. No
charge Of mutiny ever appeared against
that regiment, which aftcrward. under
Nelson and Palmer, made Il splendid
reputation for drill, discipline and hard
fighting. Chicago Inter Ocean,

in autumn time the bird notes make the lone
woods onelier yet,
As some strain renders sadder all the waste realm
Of regret;
Along the fences goldenrod sways in the chilly
air,
A beam of summer sunset lost or held captive
there.
The .lstledown, a fairy sail blown from fairy
fleet,
Floats white as innocent thoughts we had when
life was new and sweet,
And something couples in our minds whose source
we cannot know,
The slowly falling autumn leaves with dreams OF
long ago.
IN autumn time the sumac burns amid the silent
groves,
As fed by treasured kecpsakes and the letters of
old loves;
fhc doves sounding from the fields, could we
but comprehend.
May be the muscked ycarnings for the joys that
had to end,
While streams unlike the verna brooks that sing
of coming days,
Recall the laughter have heard in long I'M

Till we behold some vanished face and dear eyes
