THE AFTERMATH.

The eIe ction has passed and sufi.
eient time has elapsed for the aver
age citizen to stop and look back
over the battle ground, and canvass
some of the questions and influences
that were injected into the cam
paign in this county. Of course,
every man and woman in this coun-
ty knows what they were, but the
people outside do not, and as Bear
Lake has been swung into the re-
publican column on the national
ticket at least, it is proper that the
rest of the state should know what
brought this about.
Two years ago the EXAMINER
charged that some of the Mormon
church officials and organizations in
this county, had, in their ecclesiasti-
cal capacity, brought about the de-
feat of the democratic candidatr for
the state senate. Many put forth
denials of the charge then, but we
don't think anyone, who has any re-
card for the truth, will deny that
the same methods, by the same peo-
pie. we're resorted to last week to
accomplish the same ends. They
tailed, however, in some cases by.
small majorities.
Pres. Bulge had stated at a meet,
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1900-11-09

ing of church, officials few DAYS
before election, that it was the ode
sire of the brethern," that the repub-
hcan national, stase and legislative
tickets be voted for By the Mormon
people. Those present took his ref
erence to the "Brethern'' as mean
ing the First Presidency. One of
these, Jas. L. Hart, So took it, and
he Immediately went to Salt Lake
to ascertain if the First Presidency
was taking o band in politics. He.
found. from Pres. Snow, that the
church stood wheIe it always had ias
political matters, and that Pres.
Bulge was not authorized to make
the insinuations he dad. Judge Rich
also placed the matter before Pres
Snow, and he got the same kind of
an answer. When these answers
were received the democrats pub
Eshed them broad east in this
county.
When Mr.. Hart went to Salt
Lake Alfred Bulge followed him.
and from Salt Lake ALI sent the fol-
lowing telegrams:

peculiar conditions President Snow
says that he does not care to say
anything further at present, mas
much as the telegram TO you thI
morning from President Snow fully
endorses your actions. Presiden
Smith says for you to go aheat

what you desire.

ALFRED BUDGE.
When it was known that james
=. Hart went to Salt Lake City tc
present his side, Alfred Badge wen
down to assist the First Presidency
IN explaining what was really sale
ut the meeting called by Presidepr
Bulge in Paris Friday aftern Don,
to- which SO much objection hal
been made, he being at the meetins
and hearing all that was said III
was detained in the city to give an(
receive telephone messages TO anC
from the First Presidency and every
word in his. message can be relied
on.
The proposition resolved itself,
therefore, into whether or not Mr..
Hart had lied to the First p Fesidency,
and whether or not he lied ia quot
ing the First Presidency, in his inter
view in the Herald. Mr.. Budge's
kilograms say Ne did. Mr.. Hart,
and others who were with him at
the meeting in Paris, say he told
the truth in Salt Lake, and Mr..
Hart insists that he substantially
quoted the exact meaning and wovds
of President Snow to him.
In view of these kilograms of Mr..
Budgets, we submit that the church
leaders in this. county did use eccle-
siastical influence. The kilograms
say that Pres. Bulge could go ahead
and accomplish what he desired,
which, as he stated, was the election
of Mckinley electors, the state and
legislative tickets.
Now then about Mr.. Hart. He
is accused Of being '@traitory7 be-
cause he did what was manifestly
his duty, and with the full sanction
of Chairman Pugmirc and the en-
tire. democratic central committee.
Mr.. Hart gathered from President
Budge,s remarks that ecclesiastical
influence was to be used, and he
believed this was an assumption of
authority by Pres. Bulge not in ac-

Bonnie Direct Won the Big Event at
Detroit YESTERDAY

Detroit, July, 16.-In points of attend
ance and interest the opening day of the
sixteenth annual Blue Ribbon racing
meeting Of the Detroit Driving club,
which was the beginning Of the grand
circuit, was more successful than the
first day of any previous meeting Thir-
ty-five hundred persons saw this after
moons events and remained until the
end, although no race was decided until
after e o'clock and the last heat Of the
day was trotted at 7:1o. Interest center
ed chiefly in the Chamber of CommerC e
5000 stake for 2:24 PAGERS. Bonnie Dr.
rect, the favorite, wont it after being
quite back number for the first three
heats. Annie Thornton made a game
fight, but the combined speed and bottom
of the black son Of Direct was clearly
the best OF the field. Hal McEwen, who
had won the first heat. was Unfurtu-
nately distanced in the sixth, and so for
feited third money. Glory was ii st ia
yorire in the Cadillac, for PA trotters
but could get no better than fourth
money. Dainty Daffo, a Glens Falls
mare, won the race quite handily in the
closing three heats. The I'll pace was
Corners from start to finish of the two
heats necessary to a winning. The PIG
trot was unfinished owing to darkness.
Tomorrow is Merchants and Manufactur-
e-s day, and the $4,000 trotting stake is
expected to be the great event of the
meeting. The track was rather heavy
today, owing to occasional showers, and
strong south wind prevented fas er
time. The Chamber of Commerce time
was slower than ever before in the his
tory Of that event. Results:

way. Washington had almost forgotten
the accusation made against Polly
Smith by this time, in the freshness Of
other gossip on which Washington feeds
but sPolly'' Smith had not forgotten.
She came home from Cuba immediate
ly after the jewels had been found, and
no doubt could have taken her own
place in society had she been able to
forget, but she was not of the forgetting
kind. She continued unhappy, never
speaking unless she was spoken to, grow
ing thinner and less ike her former self
every day. Society had all but killed her
by its love of gossip.
It was when her family had almost
despaired of ever making her well and
happy again that the trip to China was
proposed. The Congers were close to
the Condit Smiths. They loved the
Polly Smith they had known of old.
The girl left for China with the ex-
pressed purpose of staying there always.
In China she could at least be among
people who would not gossip. What if
they were heathens? What if they did
kill her, as they perhaps have done?
They would at least make her misery
short lived.
So Polly" Smith went to China. She
was a pitiful-looking little thing when
she left Washington, the only home she
had ever known, where she had done so
much to make happy the lives of others.
1t is said that it was Miss Smiths pur-
pose to eventually be a missionary in
China. She could never return to Wash
ington. 1t was urged upon her that
Washington had already forgotten the ac-
cusation made against her and was only
too ready to right the wrong. The wrong,
however, was TOO great to her thinking
to ever be righted and she chose to go
from her home forever.
How polly Smith met death has not
been made known as yet, but, no mat
ter how she died, death was sweet to her.
There wan be those in Washington to-
day who suffer pang for the girl whom
they sent to her death. None can deny
that the calumny they helped to give
breath and life to made her martyr.

Coleman, Texas, July 16.-Fifteen lives

They are:
Joseph Spath, leading merchant Of the
village.
John FUleisstine.
1t is feared that many more lives were
lost in the valley below Coleman. The
clordburst, which followed three days
Of unprecedented rainfall, caused Fords
creek to burst its banks, and rush through
Coleman, a village of less than 1000 in
habitants. Bewildered citizens, reused
from their slumbers, rushed into the
streets, and were swept away. Many
fere saved by catching hold of pieces of
timber and navigating thin into the ed
dies formed by the swift current, where
they were drawn ashore. Spath and Full
eisstine managed to mount their horses.
They dashed into the water and swan
their horses to a house where four little
girls were screamin gfor help. Each res
cued two of the children whom they took
upon their horses. The animals were
swept away, however, dn a noble effort
