he were guilty, replied: II guess I
am Judge, but 1 would like to be
tried anyway"

o,her IMPORTANT Changes IN CONtem-
Oiation-OffiCiaI Inspection

some changes in the personnel OF
The Oregon Short Line officials.
The Utah division will be placed
under the supervision of G. H.

4 Montana division. The identity of
the two divisions will be maintained
and Mr.. Olmstead will have juris-
diction over both.
Local Agent H. V. Platt will be
advanced to the position Of train
master and will have Lou Pond as
bis chief clerk. Their headquarters
will be in Salt Lake City. The
name of Mr.. Platt's successor has

pigeons which carried messages
during the seige.

pigeons which carried messages
during the seige. 49,.
At first the pigeon post was of
marked service, and thousands of
letters were sent from Paris by this
means. Writings were reduced to
so minute a size that not a word
could be read without the aid of a
powerful magnifying glass; hence
one bird could carry many missives.
In one instance cage containing
two homing pigeons was appended
to a balloon, with a notice offering
a reward of 100 francs to anyone
who would send them back with
news of the outer world.
But the Prussians captured the
balloon and sent back word by par
lemnntaire that the pigeons were
welcome and tender and had made
a good pie.

Search for Lost Treasure.

The treasures that lie at the bot
tom of the sea are now more easily
obtainable by the invention of an
instrument known as the Horoscope.
This contrivance is shortly to be
put into operation in order to find
the lost feet of Xerxes, which has
reclined on the seas bed undis-
turbed for about 1900 years. Search
is also to be made for the ship char
tered by Pompey to carry Roman
art treasures to Athens and wrecked
in the archipelago 1850 years ago.

Shoots Wife and Child


Spokane, WASH, June 25.-Orin
Price killed his own baby tonight
at Sites, Idaho, shot his wife in
the abdoman and put ball in Ed

edy followed a violent quarrel near
the depot between the husband and
wife, during which Price tried to
wrench the baby from its mothers
arms. The woman resisted and
finally bystanders interfered. Price
was dragged from the carriage in
which his wife was sitting. AS
the woman was about to drive
away Price fired at her point blank.
The bullet pierced the baby's head

right any wrongs that we're thought to
exist. The plan In Lll such endeavors
is to select delegates from the various
subordinate orders to meet In conven-
ton and take up the questions and
solve them. Who is chosen delegates
to such 3 convention3 Naturally the
fellows with the biggest mouths.
Men who are agitators largely COM
pose the body selected to decide for
the whole army. There r questions
to be agitated and ~agitatOrs get to the
front. The modest, Indifferent, safe
and reliable toiler does not aspire to
such a position. When he lie through
with his days work he lie glad to 60
home andrest until called out for duty
again. The agitator is willing to rep
resent the order and be does it in his
way. When n Of these conventions
lie assembled 1t is not difficult to cal
culate It's personnel. The same rule
applies to every subordinate body.
II there is an agitator In 1t he becomes
q delegate. He walks. And the res
ult lie that q hot-headed committee is
created to treat with the management
Of the railroad. Down deep in the
hearts of that committee there is not
q thought Of the betterment OF the
conditions of the toiling masses they
misrepresent. On the other hand, it
lie composed Of the rabid of the rabid,
and they are hunting trouble, the more
ex~asperating the better. And they
find 1t. They are d~omineering, inso-
lent, and impolitic.
The strike is the logical sequence of
such q course It lie ordered, and
thousands r thrown out Of employ
ment who do not favor a strike, who
really cannot feel they have any
grievances to right, from the rash ac-
ton Of the self-selected, hot-headed
delegates who have been assembled
TOT Gne purpose OF raising q row, and
who have never thought about striv-
ing for q peaceful solution.
This same rule will be fou I'd to have
attained throughout all the strikes
that have been ordered in this or any
other country, to fail and impoverish
the honest toiling millions.
We believe the men who are inter-
ested in the present crisis, are too SEM
sible to be dragged down by any such
a false idea, any such maudlln senti-
ment. They see the mistake that has
been made for them, and the more ra-
tional ones will blot it out, as they
should, by returning to their posts OF
duty and to the service Of their fam
lilies.

There need be no fears but that Mr..
Roosevelt Is everything the trusts
want him to be or arrangements would

man has been playing goody -goody
with the antitrust people in his party,
what few Of them there may be, in
order to secure them, and since Mr..
Hanna says q denomination of the
fellow is good enough for him, none
need to fear that the trusts are onto
the whole scheme and for it. When
