A Strange Death

Daniel Shearer, u farmer LIVING
about six miles northeast of here,
died Monday at the age of 80 years.
The interment took place Tuesday
at the Fairview cemetery. The
deceased was single man and has
no relatives here, but leaves three
brothers in Ohio, who have been
notified of his death.
The cause of his death was a
most peculiar one. 1t seems that
about a week ago he swallowed
what he supposed to be IA chicken
bone which lodged in his csophegus,
and, while he suffered no great
pain, it continued to annoy him
and he had one or two physicians
examine his throat but they were
unable to locate the object. He
continued about his work until
last Saturday, when h. began
suffering with internal hemor rhagc
ahd gradually grew worse until
Monday when he died. The OBJ
jet, the physicians say, must have
penetrated AN artery.
He was a respected citizen and
had many friends in the neighbor-
Good where he lived.
Find a man who is always try-
ing to do something to build up
others and you will find ~ man
who is building up himself. Find
n man who is always trying to tear
down some one else, and you will
find IA man who is tearing himself
down. One cannot build himself
up by tearing down others. Let
us help others all we can and by
so doing help ourselves Ex.
Insist on having your pres
criptions filled where you can have
them filled the cheapest. The
Right Drug Store is the place.

The Salmon River Feud.

The Salmon River Foud.
Word was received here last
Thursday evening to the effect
that the recent trouble between
the cattle and sheep men on Sal
mon river had resulted il parties
killing u large number of sheep for
Jackson y Thompson. The
trouble dates for some time back,
IN fact ever since SHEEP were in
troduced into the cattle range.
Sheep owners claim that they have
frequently had sheep shot and
poisoned and last winter two cattle
men were arrested on charge of
shooting at sheep herder but the
evidence was not sufficient to hold
them. The present trouble hap
pened last week when II warrant
was issued for Clarence Thomp-
son, sheep herder. charging him
with shooting COW on the range.
At the time Of his arrest he had
charge Of 1926 sheep belonging to
Jackson 4 Thompson and was
holding them on the Blue Jacket
trail about 20 miles above White
Bird. Constable Wilkes went out
Tuesday and on returning with
young Thompson passed the home
of A. j. Jackson, one of the own
ers, who upon learning that sheep
were left alone started for the
camp to look after them.
j. N. Thompson, one of the own
ers and an uncle of the young man
under arrest, reached here Satur-
day and reported that Jackson had
started directly for The sheep camp
on Tuesday reaching there about
three O'Clock Wednesday morn
ing where he found the camp
burned and the ground covered
with dead sheep. Besides those
killed outright many were so
badly crippled that they could not
be driven and when the herd ' as
gotten together and counted the
loss was shown to be 423 head.
Mr.. Thompson said he was un-
able to say who lie believed the
guilty parties to he but thought
there must have been quite a num-
Der implicated MS no one or two
persons could have done the killing
alone. Their loss, including the
camp and damage done to the
flocks in mixing, Mr.. Thompson
estimates will reach fully $4,000.
The case against young Thomp-
son was continued until May 80,
and after giving bonds he was al
lowed to return to Salmon river.

A Progressive People.

Hon. Henry Wax returned
Friday from Lewiston. where he
has been for three weeks past
looking after business interests.
During his stay he had ample
opportunity to note the changes
which had taken place there, and
in speaking Of his visit he ex-
pressed himself as greatly surprised
Mt the wonderful progress made by
Lewiston in the last two years.
He attributes large degree of
this advancement to the COM
mercial club of that city, which is
composed Of an energetic, vida
awake class of business men, who
take an active interest in public
matters and by their untiring
efforts in securing new capital and
enterprise, have been of untold
benefit to Lewiston and surround
ing country. Charleston, he be-
lieves, will eventually become the
residence portion of the city and
here the change is even more
marked than in Lewiston proper.
What few years ago was con-
sidered a worthless sand bar, has,
with the introduction of water,
become vcritable garden of Eden.
Perfect roads have been laid out,
fruit OF every variety is growing
prolifically, and the beautiful
gardens and lawns are all that one
could desire in building an ideal
home.
Mr.. Wax speaks highly of the
hospitality of the people, and says
that he was treated royalty during
his stay in the city.

THE PROMISE OF BETTER CITY
GOVERNMENT. = NO CONTEST
DESIRABLE.

One battle does not make a conquest
The campaign is but just begun The
Hrst brush has been won in magnificent
style by those who oppose a continu-
ance of the old regime Of ring rule.
what is coming after is problematic to
the men of both factions. But 1t is safe
to cay that the Morehead faction will
net submit tamely to the will of the
naSority They are going to fight to
the last ditch. and the opponents OF
the ring must not think that they
have got over the worst of their
troubles.
Republicans realize that, as things
are at present, they cannot do much
to help along the good work. While
individually they are as rule sup
porters of Hammett, they are not TAX
ing any active part in the campaign,
for several reasons. Democrats are
proyerbially touchy about accepting or
seeming to accept support from the
republicans. and there are no doubt a
good many democrats who would re-
d
SAVIOR of republicanism about it. In
the case of the Hammett ticket. there
has not at any time been any indica-
ton of desire on the part OF its sup
porsers for assistance from the repub-
icans-at least outwardly. The con-
test has been entirely within the lines
of the democratic party, and represents
solely revolt against ring rule and
corruption within the party.
1t is to be expected that the victor
ions faction will make a clean sweeT
of all the offices. That is what the
people expect to see, and want to see
1t would emphasize the Importance OF
the victory in way that could not be
mistaken by the people with the mum
mified moral sense.
What the better element of the town
has been fighting for during a long
term of years is now. it appears, about
to be brought TO pass. The result OF
the primaries last night sIgnalizes the
end of ring rule. at least for the pres

and a new regime will begin. The
names of the candidates for the various
G les as they appear in today's Her
aid are sufficient guarantee that the
new conditions will be far better than
the old. There is promise of live.
competent administration, whose ambi-
ton will be for something higher than
to make as much as possible out OF the
city.
AS it would be impossible to select
any ticket that would be acceptable
to everybody, naturally there are some

A GREAT NEED FOR
HONEST ELECTIONS.

In year and a half the state of Tex
as will have the opportunity OF voting
upon the proposed constitutional
amendment. making the payment OF
poll tax, necessary in order to vote at
any election. 1t is said that the poll
tax would become delinquent the first
of March, but it is not clear whether
the poll tax could be paid at any time
by adding a penalty. The good of the
new law. if il is to be at all effective,
will come from prohibition of voting
unless the tax is paid at least month
in advance of the election SIX
months would be better. year still
better. but unless the tax is paid be-
fore the first of March in any year
and a receipt presented to the regis
trar. or at the polls. there should be
no vote.
1t is the duty of every Texan who
believes in common honesty ant COM
mon fairness in elections to support
this amendment. 1t will be at least an
improvement over present conditions,
and it is better to take a little at
time. and always go ahead. than to ask
for impossibilities and sulk if they
cannot be had.
Texas also needs a primary election
law. In a number Of states they have
advanced this far. and the subject Is
being agitated in many others. The
time will come when the primaries will
be conducted with the same care that
ought to be used at elections. This
city seems to be so used to corrupt
practices that it is doubtful if much
can be done. But it would be good
line for the Texas republicans TO
adopt They ought to work for the dis
of the corrupt and ig-
norant Mexicans and negroes. for the
of the party, and for clean
and honest elections. 1t has been well
said that minority party can afford
to be virtuous. 1t might be the means
of building up a strong white opposi-
ton party in this state. which would
be the best thing that could happen for
the state. and for every city in it.
The local republicans would make a
good stroke if they would stand boldly
for honest elections, and prepare
themselves to make the stand more
than a mere bluff 1t is one. direction
along which work for good govern
ment would produce direct beneficial
results.

men on the ticket that would lend
weight and dignity to 1t IL they were
to be left of. But the general aver
age is high. and the promise Is very
good for marked Improvement over
the present set of professional ONCE
holders. There is hope for better ad-
ministration of justice. There is hope
for a better police organization. There
Is hone for a systematic plan for city
Improvement. What more can be
asked? IL we get an administration
that is a trifie above the average in
stead of below it. we shall be fortu-
nate.
The Herald of course cannot assume
to speak for the republican party
whether as an organization or as in
dividuals. But it does seem that the
party can serve the city best by re-
framing from taking any action that
might be turned to account by the
Morehead faction of the democrats. IL
the Hammett ticket is elected, the re-
pubIicans will have received what they
themselves have ostensibly been fight
ing for-better government. The re-
publicans could do no better il they
had the matter in their own hands.
The republicans will meet in few
days. it is to be presumed. to decide
what action to take with regard to the
forthcoming election. 1t is to be hoped
that they will decide to make no con-
test at the polls. either in their own
name or in the name of any other or
SANITATION. whether it call itself indie
pendent or something else. Nothing
can be gained by such a contest. and
it might result in endangering the
prospects of the Hammett ticket, whlch
certainly represents good govern
ment" as no other movement has for
many years.

umns. This was the only way the Mex
leans could tell which ticket to vote.
They knew the money was coming to
them for merely casting the little slip
of paper in the box. and they We're con-
tent to wait.
IL was purely question of which
side had the most money to spend and
the best organizers among the MeSi-
cans. The whole thing was handled by
not over a dozen white men. yet there
were over fifteen hundred votes cast.
The voters were herded like cattle.
Nobody asked where they lived. or
how many times they had voted be-
fore the same evening. Everything
went. and the man who could gain
vote by cheating. lying. bulldozing. or
purchasing. was admired as good
worker
Such things as this are calculated 10

izenship a due sense of their obliga-
tions to the community. anC the priv
ileges of being an American freeman
Every law on the statute book is care
fully and consistently fractured. every
one of the ten commandments is brok-
en- every minute. the whole procedure
is one of absolute anarchy and defiance
of law. and of the rules of common
decency, and yet it is out of such
reeking mass that we are expected to
distill honest men to occupy official
positions.
Some readers may wonder how it is
possible to reconcile this editorial with
the one that precedes it. There is but
one answer-out of the primary. as
now conducted. commonly comes some
thing worse than what we have had
seems to have been better than what
before. Out of this primary the issue
we have had. Without in any way
condoning the offense of those who en-
gage in the corrupting practices des-
cribed. there is no reason to qualify the
former assertion. that the new regime
would approximate good government
more nearly than the old.

PROCTOR ON CUBA.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Senator Proctor agrees with every
other observer who has visited Cuba IN
predicting since his return the peace
full adoption of the terms proposed by
congress to the new state.
The longer these terms are discussed
in Cuba the more difficult it will be to
md objection to them. They propose
nothing but a guaranty against disor-
der. yellow fever. the cessation of Gu
ban territory to foreign masters or its
foreign invasion. The prohibition OF
these things and the protection of Cuba
from foreign debt, invasion or acQui-
sition. imply no sovereignty. jurisdic-
ton of control on the part of the Uni
ted States. The terms all leave Cuba
free to be peaceful. prosperous and
well governed. They do not permit
freedom for yellow fever. riot, disorder
debt or foreign cession or invasion
and any proposal that this was implied
would have been secuted three years
ago. when the Teller resolution was
passed.
What is really being worked out in
Cuba is a system under which Spanish
American states can be part Of a great
American system. in which each state
shall be free, sovereign. and indepen-
dent. but guaranteed against the evils
which have hitherto Slapped their pros
perity. The United States does not
seek to annex them. They may no,
want to be annexed. They must. then
remain independent, but free revolu-
ton and free yellow fever can no long
err be permitted as in the past, because
the world grows small.
Under our fedora, systems states
keep their sovereignty for all local pur-
poses and for national purposes are
part of one anton. AS Porto Rico has
shown. various questions render this
plan less easy of application to a
Spanish island, not ready to
become a state and which may not be
ready for a generation or more.
BY slow degrees the case of Cuba is
working out a larger. freer system, in
which Cuba. and perhaps other Span
ish-American states will in the end
continue free in all ordinary foreign
relations. Independent anC sovereign.
but in Which the United States will act
as u guarantor against riot and disor-
der. yellow fever and tropical disease.
eXtravagant debt. and foreign invasions
and foreign claims on territory.
If this plan works it will be the bet
ter for all concerned than either future
annexation of the past regime of revo-
luton riot. yellow fever. and period
ical interference by the United States
against Europe and to protect govern
ment as in Mexico, as boundary in
Venezuela. Such plan may avoid the
difficulties on one side of complete cor
poration with the United States and on
the other the arrested development OF
Spanish-American government by rev.
dictionary disorder. Instead of in
creasing annexation there will be the
limited States uniOn made uD of no.

lean countries. working out their irdi-
