General Matos, the present revelation
airy chieftain, has been a prominent fig
ire In several Venezuelan crises. when
the country was In financial straits dur
ing the Crespo administration he was
called into the cabinet as secretary of
finance to rescue the nation. Again, dur
ing the administration OF Andrade, he ac-
cepted the same portfolio and helped
the country in crisis.
He has always been opposed to the
Castro administration. which he believ-
ed 20 be corrupt and which he thinks
Is plunging Venezuela into ruin.
Matos has the reputation of being an
Intensely patriotic Venezuelan He Is
related by marriage to the Guzman
persons in Venezuela who are as wealthy
as he His estate is valued at about
Sc, 00o,0 900. =.
In the present revolution he has de-
voted s., 500, 900 of his fortune to the In
surgent cause. He pays the revoiu-
tionary army estimated at 10000 men,
out of his own purse. He firmly be
lives that he can rescue Venezuela from
her deplorable state, and with that
patriotic motive aspires to become the
constitutional president.
He is essentially civic leader. ana
not soldier. although he is now known
as General Matos. In Venezuela every
leader of a revolutionary movement be-
comes a general at once, no matter
whether he has had military experience
or not Matos did have some expert
ence in the army. however, when Guz-
man Blaneo was president
Matos is said to have amassed his
wealth In legitimate enterprises He

When Castro got into power and needed
his wife to keep up the social end OF
his presidency he sent for her and

Sunday afternoon, John and Canvass
Reese, II and IS year old sons Of Pro-
bate Judge Reese were injured on Snake
river grade in runaway caused by fright
of the horse at locomobile.
DR.. Reese and his sons were driving
down town from Normal hill and met
Mr.. Campbell of Pomeroy who had
started up the hill ON his locomobile.
DR.. Reese turned out for the locomobile
to pass and for better safety got out Of
the vehicle and went to the horses head.
The putting kissing Of the horseiess car
riage was too much for the frightened
animal and in one bound he dashed over
DR.. Reese and plunged down the hill
overturning the buggy and throwing the
boys violently to the ground. The
younger son was thrown clear Of the
buggy but the older son was caught
beneath it and dragged for considerable
distance over the rocks. When found
he was unconscious and fatal injuries
were feared but while his face and head
are frightfully lacerated and his body
badly bruised he received no fractures or
injuries. The younger son was cut on
the scalp and sustained a severe injury in
one hip and had his body bruised. DIR.
Shaft was called in to dress the wounds
and found no fractured bones or fatal
injuries. The boys are improving rapid
ly with everything in their favor. Mrs.
Reese and daughter were in Moscow and
returned Monday.

Tomorrow is Decoration day. There
will be the usual parade Of the Grand
Army society and local militia. The
graves of the dead soldiers will be strewn
with Aowers-the prettiest and best Of
ferings of our gardens.
The old days will come again. The
gray.haired men with forms bowed un-
der the weight Of years will stand in line
just as they did when mustered in; the
pathetic scene Of leaving the old home,
the last fond embrace to wife, mother or
sweetheart, the wild. hearty cheer Of their
towns-people as they marched away
all will come again.
Then the awkward squad; the trips on
the side to get those things the fancy Of
the boys craved. but which Uncle Sam
did not furnish. These will come again.
Then the other scene-that where
brother met brother in deadly combat;
fierce charge in face Of shot and she'll !;
the roar of cannon and rattle Of musket !;
the enemy met and repulsed; the earth
strewn with dead and dying-piled up in
rows like the ripe grain as 1t falls before
the reaper; the capture and the horror
of the old prison life at Belle Isle, Libby
or Andersonville. All these and more
will come again. And because Of these
things Decoration day has q meaning to
Grand Army men that the present gen.
Grafton can not fathom.
-Four years of destructive war waged.
and peace came. But there was great
bitterness left. A broad chasm, seem.
ingly impassable, yawned between the
brave men Of the north and the south.
Then came Decoration day and from it
sprung the love that has united the men Of
both armies. The hand that was raised
only to kill soon carried wreaths Of
flowers to cover the grave Of his former
foeman, and often teardrops fall when
this work of love is performed.
Tomorrow there will be tears and
flowers for all. Tomorrow the greatest and
best Of American soldiery will be re-
membered. The immortal heroes who
led in that contest, Robert E. Lee, Grant,
]. B. Stuart and Sheridan, Hancock and
Stonewall Jackson will have a greater
place in the hearts OF our fellow citizens.
Tomorrow and always will they live in
our hearts. This is great nation. with
one God, one flag, one people free and
indissoluabte as the result Of the war
waged by these men who now accept
and practice the words Of the martyred
Lincoln, "Malice toward none and
charity for ALL"
The memorial service Sunday was held
at the NJ. +. church which was crowded

4 MINERS MYSTERIOUS FIND


A Tunnel Abandoned ysan Ago accidentally
Found.
G. G. Smith of Orofino furnishes the
greatest sensation in mining circles since
the days when faint, rumors Of old Oro-
emo were dished up among the rugged
miners in the days Of '49 when Suffers
mill was in its glory.
Smith had been out in the hills look
ing for fortune and he was returning
not greatly overjoyed at his success.
He has fully determined to make start
in new direction. having that "hunch"
said to affect those in bad luck, that q
change has come in their affairs. He
aud his faithful pony trudged slowly
down the mountain side, over trail that
was far from good at the start and grew
rapidly worse at each step. Smith saw
huge log and concluded to walk along
that to relieve the monotony. He
stepped off its end and sank deep in Q
hole. At first he thought he had simply
fallen into . pit where tree had once
stood. But closer examination showed
it to be tunnel. He removed the tim
ber and earth, disclosing long tunnel, .
ar, some shovels and picks and miners
candle sticks. The woodwork Of the car
and shovels had decayed until they were
easily broken with slight finger pinch.
The whole interior was in the same con.
dition. There is no way Of determining
when this tunnel was made. Pine trees
ten inches in diameter have grown up on
the dump, giving the idea that years
have elapsed since the tunnel was made.
The position Of the tools and car show
the miners had intended to return and
work. But some strong fate followed
them-pcrhaps savage Indians destroyed
their lives and their prospects for fortune
fell into decay.
Mr.. Smith intends to clear the tunnel
and see what there is in II.
