kind by you. The Republican party that
you have served so long and faithfully
cannot part with your services now"

BANDIT HURLS BOMB

(By the Associated Press.)

Seattle, Wash, Sept. IA special to
the Times from Shagway Alaska, says
about three O'Clock yesterday afternoon
an unknown man walked into the
Canadian Bank of Commerce, revolver
in one hand and dynamite bomb in the
other and demanded $4,000, threatening
to blow all into eternity.
Cashier Pooley and Teller Wallace were
the only two men in the bank Wallace
ducked to get his gun and ran quickly
to the back of the room, calling for
Pooley to do the same.
''No you don't" yelled the man, drop
ping the bomb.
The bank was wrecked. The robbers
head was smashed and one arm was
torn off. Persons living above the bank
were blown into the air.
Judge Price, former prosecuting att
torney. who was entering the bank at
the time. was hurt but not seriously.
The dynamiter died without regaining
consciousness. The bank lost about
thousand dollars, chiefly in gold, which
was lying on the counter.

the imposition upon them of exceptional
taxes, involving as they do wrongs re-
pugnant to the moral sense of liberal
modern peoples, are not so directly in
point for my present purpose as the pro-
posed acts which attack inherent right Of
man as bread winner in the ways of
agriculture and trade. The Jews are
prohibited from owning land, or even from
cultivating it as common laborers. They
are debarred from residing in the rural
districts. Many branches of petty trade
and manual production are closed to
them in the over crowded cities where
they are forced to dwell and engage,
against fearful odds, in the desperate
struggle for existence. Even as ordinary
partisans or hired laborers they may
only find employment in the proportion
of one unprotected alien to two 'Rou-
manians' under any one employer. In
short. by the cumulative effect of success
sive restrictions, the Jews of Roumana
have become reduced to state of wretch
ed misery. Shut out from nearly every
avenue of self support which is open to
the poor of other lands, and ground
down by poverty as the natural result
of their discriminatory treatment, they
are rendered incapable of lifting them
selves from the enforced degradation they
endure. Even were the fields of educa-
tion, of civil employment and of COM
merce open to them as to 'Roumanias
citizens their penury would prevent their
rising by individual efforts. Human be-
ings so circumstanced have virtually no
alternatives but submissive suffering or

them. Removal under such conditions is
not and can not be the healthy, intelli-
gent emigration of free and self
reliant being. 1t must be, in most cases,
the mere transportation of an artificially
produced diseased growth to a new place.
Granting that, in better and more
healthful surroundings, the morbid con-
ditions will eventually change for good
such emigration is necessarily for a time

account of i'll health had declined to be

tariff at this time as both inopportune
and unnecessary. If, in any schedule,
import duties are found that have been
notoriously perverted from their true
purpose to the inordinate enrichment of
corporations, monopolistic in fact or in
tendency, we look to Republican Con-
gress TO apply, in it's wisdom, the need

Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Sept.
17.-President Castro, of Venezuela, has
retreated from Ocumare before the ad-
vance of the revolutionists.
The Venezuelan Governments situation
is critical Recent advices received from
Venezuela confirm the dispatches of the
Associated Press from Willemstad OF
Friday, September 18th.
The battle which, as then announced,
began September 18th in the vicinity OF
Tinaquillo, Venezuela, between about
1000 revolutionists under the command
of Generals Mendoza, Batalla and Riera,
and the Government forces of about the
same strength, led by the Venezuelan
Minister of War. General Garrido, re-
suited in the defeat of the Government
forces, and not in victory for the
latter, as announced in dispatch from
Torres Cardenas, Secretary of President
Castro, which set forth that General
Mendoza's army had been annihilated
September Sth, near Tinsquillo.
The engagement of that date, as ca
bled from here September 18th, was only
an advance guard fight of no Importance.
The real battle began September 18th and
lasted four days, after which General
Garrido retreated on Valencia and
eventually entered that city September
18th, with about 2,100 men, leaving the
road free for the further advance on
Caracas of the revolutionary army under
Generals Mendoza, Riera and Batalla.
The only other Government army in
the field is the one which is under the
personal command of President Castro.
The President retreated of Ocumare to
Charayave and then to Guyaba, about
four hours march from Caracas.

COuncil-Thunder Mt. Route Will be
Travelled Year Round.
ARRANGING FOR OPEN TRAIL
Ambrose Stewart, of Silver King Mine, on a
Mission.

There is every probability that the
road to Thunder Mountain from
Council will be kept open all winter,
not only for the benefit of Thunder
Mountain but also for Warren which
place is short on supplies. There at
least two propositions being pushed
on the matter of an open trail w.
c. Beaver, who recently started
pack train of IA animals out of
Weiser, has been circulating a paper
to raise funds for the purpose of
keeping the way open and has re-
ceived considerable encouragement
from business men. 1t is understood
Warren and Meadows people are
raising money to employ Ross Krig-
baum to keep the snow bro ken. AS
a matter of course all forces available
will be united if it is decided to keep
the road clear.
The road to Warren is being
travelled now and there is but one
mile on Elk creek summit that is
closed to animals. Under the cir
cumstances it would hardly seem
necessary to take animals in and out
all winter and the matter of feed for
pack nimals is so serious that it is
practically folly to take animals in.
Dog teams would amply suffice fol
what transportation facilities will be
required this winter. The main
thing to be accomplished would be
simply the proving that the route
from Council is the only practica
one into Thunder Mountain.
Mr.. Ambrose Stewart, owner Of
the Silver King mine at Warren, is
out from the camp. He believes
that nine tenths of the Thundel
Mountain travel will 60 over th'
Council route. He is now in Sal
Lake where he was called to fur
nish certain information to the Ore
gon Short Line on the subject. HI
will endeaver to impress that com
pany with the fact that by keeping
the trail open the rush will com
mence this way fully 40 days Garlic
than from other points, to the grea
business advantage oft he railway
An early start will capture the bul
of the travel, but if the business
not started moving until late in th
season the Northern Pacific will be
close competitor with the Short Lin
for the business.
