HARp 10 SHOOT WILD GEESE.

Young geese near the remote breed
ing grounds and before they have
been educated by the long, perilous
fight from north to south and back,
not seldom behave in a fashion calcu-
lated to cast doubt upon their intel
ligence, but that is a common fault of
youth and inexperience. The two
year-old goose is very different fowl,
and if there be anything in feathers
better able to extract chunks of solid
wisdom from an experience with a
trace of lead in it, I have not yet met
that bird.
Nor is it at all strange that the
'honker" should be tireless in vigil
ance and exceeding loath to trust his
big, shapely body too near any form
of growth or shelter which possibly
might conceal a man. Roughly
speaking, the initial southern trip,
from the fowls birthplace to the win
ter rendezvous, is an airy jaunt of
about 5000 miles, more or less, at
least one-third of which is punctuated
with peril.
In all probability, the true story of
a goose's migration experiences would
be something startling, especially in
regard to the quantity OF lead of vari-
Gus sizes vainly hurled after the adj
venturous flyer. Would it be pounds,
or tons? At first glance, the latter
quantity might appear absurd, but it
must be remembered that a goose is
1ong-lived, while nine-tenths of his

than science in their abortive meth
DDS. In any event, if had the choice
of contract for carrying to canoe the
goose, or the stuff that had missed
him, there wouldn't be any hesitancy
over the selection of the freight.
The fact is that the honker is the
most shot at and the least killed of all
our fowl, the reason for which is SIM
pie enough. Not few old sportsmen
and all new hands at the game under
estimate by about one-half the distance
at which flying goose is passing.
The bulky body and great wings make
a noble spread, even when couple
Of hundred yards off, and only long
schooling can teach the utter useless
ness of trying at half that range with
any standard gun. Toa novice, a goose
actually within sure distance will APP
pear almost on top of him, and it is
only after few fowl have been killed,
gathered and the distance at which
they fell noted that the eye acquires
the knack of measuring with anything
like correctness the deceptive mark.

The RAILROAD SITUATION
ASSUMING TANGIBLE FORM
With the Complete Adjustment of the Northern
Securities Case There is Hope OF I'm.
mediate R. R. Construction

and his associates are in the trans
action.
Announcement is also made that the
Great Northern is now the sole road
entirely controlled by James ]. Hill.
But with the immense capital OF J.
Pierpont Morgan at his back, Mr.. Hill
may work wonderful changes in a short
time. The fact that the Great North
ern, with the Hill Morgan combination
at it's head. is rated independent, it is
claimed means that Hill and Morgan
hampered their operations in the past,
and that developments may be expected
both soon and startling.
THAT the Gould and hartman inter-
ests have worked to force Hill from the
Northern Securities Company, or the
company from it's position of director
ship, is established. In the Northern
Securities Company was swallowed up
the Northern Pacific, which through
this combination became close ally
of the Great Northern. and left Hill
| free to act as ne saw fit, robbing his
opponents of power to battle him in
| his own territory. With the Northern
| Securities Company broken, the Harri-
man interests-always in the past most
bitter enemies of Hill-could swing
the Northern Pacific away from Hill
and employ it as a weapon against him
! in the North. This is what it appears
I has been done.
| James J. Hill has always been a
| fighter in the past. and not even the
most sanguine Hartman supporters
expects he will sit idle and watch his
| financial enemies assume peaceable
| possession of the field. Northwest BUSH
ness and Oriental trade is what is being
1 sought by each party, and 1t is there
fore expected that the Northwest will
be the scene of at least the major por-
ton of the moves on the railroad
checkerboard.
zone theory advanced is that the
Hartman and Rockefeller interests
will operate the Chicago. Burlington &
i Quincy, and that it will be extended
to the coast, either over it's own tracks
yet to be constructed-or through the
Il Northern Pacific. BY means of the lat
ter road, also. it is possible the Chicago
Milwaukee & st. Paul may come to the
coast.
"As counter move, 1t Is predicted by
some that Hill will combine with the
Canadian Pacific. a thing said for
some time to have been under consid-
Grafton. Mr.. Hill has for months been
acquiring property across the boundary
to the north and now holds some Of the
finest coal mines in the West, wholly on
Canadian soil.
| Mr.. Hill is said to have admitted
last nightsthat something would short
~ be doing in the Northwest rail-
road situation, but refused at the pres
| ent time to make known his plans
Local railroad men are deeply inter-
ested and are eagerly waiting for the
first move.
" For months railroad interests have
with semi-secrecy been purchasing
property in several Of the Pacific coas
cities. and it is thought the announce
ment from New York presages revel-
alton of the meaning of these acts"

Especial Telegram to Evening TellerJ
BOSTON, Mass. Oct. THE politi-
cal pot reached the boiling point today.
For the first time within memork both
the republicans and the democrats are
holding their state conventions on the
same day. The democratic state con-
vention was called to order by Mayor
Collins in the Boston theater at IL
o'clock this morning. and at the same
hour the republicans assembled in
state convention in fremont temple.
The conventions will name candi-
dates for governor, lieutenant governor
and other state officers to be voted for
next month. The republican ticket will
be made up of the present incumbents,
excepting the candidacy for state
treasurer. for which place there is a
contest. The democratic candidate for
governor will be William l.. Douglas,
the millionaire shoe manufacturer of
Brockton Some talk was heard ear
lier in the year Of Richard Olney for
the head of the ticket. Mr.. Olney
evinced no desire for the honor. and
Col. W. A. CASTOR. who was twice the
democratic nominee for governor. like
wise declined to head the ticket again
The withdrawal Of Messrs. Olney and
CASTOR left Mr.. Douglas I'm possession
Of the field and his nomination will
probably be made without opposition
in the convention. The party believes
II has found an able candidate In Mr.
Douglas and will advocate his election

The railroad situation is again Begin
ming to take ON some tangible form es-
pecially since the famous Northern
Securities merger case has been prac-
tically settled. here is much specula-
ton vet however as to whether the con-
troll of the different continental lines
will fall The question has been dis
cussed frequently in the press OF the
Northwest and only the phase of the
distribution Of the roads has been taken
UP. In the Lewiston and Clearwater
Valley the question is of vital i'm
portance and yet there are those who
express the opinion regardless OF
whether MIR. Hill or Mr.. Hartman con-
trolls the Northern Pacific this section
OF the country will be largely benefited.
1t has been stated in the press dur
ing the past few days that the Nor
thern Pacific would go to Hill while
statement has been published TO the
effect that the road would be in the
hands OF Mr.. Hartman. The railroad
officials who have visited Lewiston in
the past have all said that the trans
portation facilities for Lewiston are
inadequate.
The Teller has always contended that
the Lewiston Riparia branch would
be built and owned by joint company
in which both the 0. r. & N. and n. +.
would be interested The contention
was also made that the Clearwater line
would be merged with the Riparia
branch. II Mr.. Hartman secures the
final control of the N. p. he will then
be directly in control Of both the Q. r.
& N and the N. p. and it would be
very natural to presume the he would
push the line down the river at an early
date. If Mr.. Hill secures the control
of the N. p. then merry war will like
ly be the outcome in which both in
terests would endeavor to control the
/ traffic of this territory. 1t is merely
speculative but Mr.. Hill is fighter
and would find an outlet for the N. p
by water grade instead of the haul to
the hills and proceed to the coast
through a feasible route. 1t is merely
probable that any announcement
would be made before election but II
the Northern Securities case has beer
settled it is safe to predict that an
announcement which will be of es-
pecial interest to this section Of the
country will be made at an early date
The Portland Evening Telegram COM
menting on the situation says:
That the giant combination of cap
| ital which James ]. Hill got together
to form the Northern Securities Com
| pany and control the railroad situation
has failed, and that Mr.. Hill has been
forced from the head of a great con-
Germ to the control and management OF
a single road; but that he Is not con-
| tented with matters as they stand, and
| may bring about other combinations
| the working out of which is likely to
| affect materially transportation lines
and conditions in the Northwest, is the
interruption Portland railroad men
place on the dispatches from New York
announcing that the Gould interests
! have assumed control of Northern
Securities stock formerly held by the
Union Pacific, and that Rockefeller

las, the Shoe Republicans Have
up the Reciprocity Issue

on the ground that the state should
choose a successful business man for
governor.
The interest in the republican con-
vention centers chiefly in the action 1t
will take with regard to the reciprocity
framed so as to make strong appeal
to republican business men, and the
republican managers realize that they
must do something to weaken this
appeal The approval of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce pronouncement
on Canadian reciprocity is also urged
as the only means for obtaining har-
mony In the party ranks.
! The reciprocity plank which the re-
publicans are asked to incorporate in
their platform is as follows:
The republicans of Massachusetts
believe that measures should Abe taken
for the enlargement of our trade with
Canada and Newfoundland, by means
. of reciprocal treaties. policy long rec
ognized as sound republican doctrine.

lied, in his message to congress in

livered by Charles L. Capen and the
appointment of committees and other
routine business occupied the great
err part Of the initial session. The
annual banquet takes place this eve

and jurists Of prominence.
The convention will continue and
conclude it's sessions tomorrow.
Leading features provided in the

REPUBLICANS Want
TO GUST ROOT

Henry c. Root for chief police; ONO
for member of the board of public
works, and f. NJ. Dudley for corpora
tion counsel, We're the names of propos-
ed appointees by Mayor Boyd at the
meeting of the city council last night.
But the council would not consider
them.
The hitch seems to be on Root. Yes
terday the democrats made a PROPOSE
tion to the republicans giving them
the chief of police and the corporation
counsel, but the republicans, it seems,
would not consider this, and the action
of the mayor last night tied up the ap-
pointments again. The matter may
hang fire for a long time yet, and it is
just possible there may be no appoint
ments made until July. Both parties
are locked on the appointment to the
board, as this is political Office of
much prestige.

ATTEMPTED JAIL
BREAK

Lewis Deathridge, the twin brother
of the notorious Duke who is now in
the county Jail here under six year
sentence to Walla Walla for burglary,
appears in new role. He saved Lin
coin county from a jail-break and the
sheriff from humiliation and disgrace
Lewis was in the Lincoln county Jail
under a peace bond for one year. He
had attempted to shoot a marshal. The
whole story came out when James
Ireland, under sentence Of five years
for burglary, was placed in the county
jail here over night. Ireland was sent
up from Lincoln county and was under
the escort of Sheriff Inkster.
1--WE almost had a wholesale jail
break at the Lincoln county jail"
said Ireland. at happened about
three weeks ago. The men had removed
the bricks from the ceiling and were
cutting away the flooring tito the court
room when they were detected. The
break would have been a success ex-
cept for Deathridge, who tipped it of
to the iailor.
"Deathridge has always as bad
nut and tough character. He always
spoke OF a stool pigeon az among the
lowest of the low. He wanted to get
out very badly and SO tipped the thing
off. As a reward he was released from
jail-that Is, his sentence was suspend
ed.
"But it did not do him much good to
get out becaus he was arrested in o
few days again for attempting to kill
his wife, or at least a woman with
whom he had been living. They have
him in jail again. Both Of the Death
ridge boys have gon around the
country and tried to make people
think they were bad eggs. 1t doesn't
seem that Lewis is as tough nut az
he tries to paint himself. He wanted
to get out. He didn't care about the
other fellows. In about an hour more
Sheriff Inkster would have had his
hands full Of trouble. Lewis is all that
saved him."
