BEALE'S CANDIDACY.

We gather from the friendly
tone of our local republican ex-
changes toward G. F.. Beale's
candidacy for congress, that that
gentleman is putting In some
pretty effective, if quiet, work
looking to that desirable goal.
While the MINING News is will
ling to credit Mr. Reale with all
the amiable and efficient qualities
claimed for him by his friends
and admirers, and is ready to be-
lieve that he would, if elected to
that position, make an efficient
representative, it believes there
is, or should be, one insurmount-
able barrier to his nomination.;
namely, the candidacy of Burton
L. French, the present incum-
bant, who, we understand, de-
sires to, and has certainly earned
the privilege of succeeding HIM
self for the next term at least.
This, we think, he is justly en-
titled to for no other reason than
that he be given an opportunity to
perfect and round off properly a
very brilliant beginning.
While Mr.. Frenc hhas not iden-
titled himself with Idaho's lead
ing industry in any way that we
have heard, his attitude and argu-
ments against the repeal of the
timber and stone act shows pretty
conclusively where he stands
when the best interests of Idaho

peal of the timber and stone act

common sense and sound reason.
ing, would be hard to excel, anc
would seem to indicate pretty
clearly what the middle age oil
such a beginning would bring
forth. He has all the natura
qualities we have heard credited
to Mr.. ,Peal, push, energy, indus
try, and along with those he has
the advantage of a two years
course in, that great school of hui
man character, the lower house Of
congress. This is one of the
well enoughs" that we woulc
like to see let alone. We of the
hills are satisfied with French.
Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1904-06-18

In the recent interview given
out in the Lewiston Tribune re-
garding the proposed wagon road
up the south fork of the Clear
water, Mr.. Gordon covered the
ground pretty thoroughly. 1t
seems to be the general opinion
of those familiar with existing
conditions, that at least an effort
should be made to build the road.
Thus far, however, the MINING
NEWS has seen or heard of no
definate plan to unite the friends
of the enterprise upon a common
basis, from which they might act
with unity and intelligence, two
conditions which are necessary
to the success of any important
movement. That state aid will
be required is a foregone conclus-
ion, but before we ask for that
aid it will be necessary to have at
least an approximate idea Of how
much it will cost to build the road;
to that end the News suggests
that, If not contrary to law, or to
their sense of public duty, the
county commissioners direct the
county engineer to ascertain the
probable cost Of such a highway
before the meeting of the next
legislative assembly.

SPEED ON THE STREETS.
street Cars as Well as Automobiles
should BE Regulated.

Editor Morning News: The people of
Savannah have been reading for some
time in the daily papers about the eff
forts of the city authorities to compel
reckless automobile drivers to moder-
ate their speed and come somewhere
within legal limits in that respect. 1
believe that all good citizens, includ-
ing good automobilists, fully appreciate
the value of these efforts, as every Gne
should desire, and l believe does de-
sire to minimize the dangers of city
travel as much as possible.
We all have heard that a special Of
ficer has been watching automobilistS
on the broad thoroughfare Estill avenue,
and have docketed a few for fast run
ming on same, notwithstanding the fact
that there is little if any danger in
running a machine at a high rate of
speed on that broad thoroughfare ex-
cept at the crossing of Waters road,
where great caution is undoubtedly
necessary.
Nevertheless, if Estill avenue as far as
Waters road is in the city limits, it is
only right that automobiliSts should be
compelled to observe the law, and no
good citizen, though he be an automo-
bilist, should complain. If the law is
too onerous in compelling too strict OBJ
make itself manifest, and our wise al
dermen will modify it accordingly. So
much for the automobiles.
But how about the street cars? Is it
not fact, known to all people in this
city, that the street cars on certain of
our thoroughfares habitually run day
and night, and more especially at
night, al speeds ranging anywhere from
20 to 35 miles per hour? Who has not
on, AhornnTV ND a
ersham streets running at frightful
speeds in the late hours of the night,
making it almost certain death for any
lame, deaf or needless person to cross
a track while one of those cyclonic car
driveres is approaching? Have we
heard of any policeman being station
ed on a corner with stop watch to
take the time made by the street cars
with a view of putting them on the
docket? Don't we read in the papers
week by week and day by day of seri-
Gus collisions and injury to horses,
wagons and pedestrians by street
cars? Does not everybody know that
street car notormen seem to take a
delight in passing a car coming in the
opposite direction, right on street
corner where the danger of accident is
multiplied MANIFOLD, at high rate of
speed, and yet have we heard of any
effort to stop this reckless practice?
An automobile is equipped with cush-
ION tires, and if one should run over
pedestrian he may be quite seriously
injured but the injury rarely results in
death, in fact, heavy automobiles have
been known to run square over people,
and over vital parts at that, without
doing them any serious injury at all.
Besides this, the driver of an automo-
bile is nearly always in position to
avoid an accident by skillful maneuver-
ing, but trolley cars can't maneuver,
and if an unfortunate victim is caught

HUSBAND AND
DAUGHTER GONE
DIVORCED WIFE is ANXIOUS.
MOTHER OF BESSIE KERSH BE-
LIEvES SHE'S KIDNAPPED.

Police Asked to Find Little One.
Mother said She Was Positive
Her Former Husband Had Taken
pIOyer He Intended Taking Her
and Had Asked for LOan-SuppOsed
to Have Crossed River Into south
Carolina.
1t was reported to the police yester-
day that Bessie Kersh the s.
year-old daughter of Mrs. Minnie l..
Kersh, had disappeared the day before
and that the childs father was sus-
pected of having kidnapped her. Kersh
and his wife We're recently divorced,
after a rather sensational suit, and
the wife was given the custody of the
child.
The little girl went to the Thirty
eighth Street School Monday but she
did not return home in the afternoon
1t was learned that she had left the
school about 1870 o'clock. Upon her
failure to return home, her mother be-
came alarmed and made a search for
her, but no trace could be found.
Trains were watched Monday night
and yesterday morning Mrs Kersh
called at police headquarters and re-
ported the matter to the authorities.
Detective Wall was detailed on the
case by the superintendent, but he
made no progress yesterday.
1t was learned, however, that Kersh
had stated he intended to take the
child. He was employed at the Dixie
Loan Company. A. c. Bremen of this
company says Kersh tried to borrow
some money from him, but his request
was not granted. Mr.. Bremen says
Kersh stated he intended to take his
daughter, put her in a cab and escape
with her. His plan, according to Mr..
Bremen, was to drive to the river
and there get a boat to take him over
into South Carolina. There is little
doubt that Kersh took the child, judg
ing from Mr.. Brenner's statement.
Mrs. Kersh is very much distressed
over the loss of her daughter. She
urged the officers to do all they could
to try and find her child. She believes
firmly that her former husband took
the little girl. and there seems little
reason for doubling this, since the
statemen made by Mr.. Bremen has
come to light.
Kersh boarded at No. 626 Oglethorpe
avenue, east with Mr.. C. J. Wall
He left his boarding house Monday
with a valise and it is supposed he
had packed up his clothes preparatory
to carrying away his daughter.
No trace of the child had been found
by the police last night. 1t is sup
posed Kersh made good his statement
and succeeded in getting into South
Carolina. Every effort will be made
by the authorities to locate him.

eneath the wheels a horrible death is

beneath the wheels horrible death is
assured.
do not write this for the purpose of
defending automobile drivers, for they
should be made to obey the law. 1t is
strictly to their interest that they
should obey the law, but there should
be no distinction in favor of the street
cars, more especially when the street
cars when run at a high rate of speed
are far more dangerous to the general
public and the effects of a collision
FAR more disastrous as a rule.
The writer of this can tell you of at
least one death that has occurred on a
certain crossing in Savannah in the
past two or three years. and more ac-
cidents on the identical same crossing
by collision with the street cars than
has perhaps been recorded against
automobilists in the last year, all put
together, in this city, and if such cases
are multiplied in the same proportion
at other prominent crossings in the
city, the fact is clearly established
that there are few more dangerous
things on earth than the average Sa-
Vannah street car.
