IN ONE COMMON GRAVE
Forty-seven Of the Bennington's Vic
tins Are Buried.


San Diego, Cal, July 24.-Forty-sev.
en- of the gunboat Bennington's dead
were buried Sunday In a common
grave in the little military cemetery
on the crest of the promontory Of
Iona, high above the waters Of San
Diego bay on the one side and within
sound Of the booming surf Of the Pa
cific on the other. Without the crash
of drum or the sound of brass, without
pomp or parade, yet with simple i'm
pressiveness, all honor was paid the
nations dead.
Army and navy paid their last
tributes, no less sincere than the sim.
pie grief of the representatives OF
peace, who made the long journey
around or across the bay. The most
impressive body of mourners were the
fifty-two men from the battered Ben
nington. Beside there there were SOL
diers and sailors from forts and ships,
and hundreds Of civilians.

fewimiles north Of Holton, in Muske-

was About to Sail.
The Bennington, at the time of tbs
accident was lying in the stream just
eff the commercial wharf at H street.
The warsh:p had received orders from
the navy department at Washington
to sail Friday morning for Port Har-
ford to meet the monitor Wyoming
and convoy the monitor to Mare island
navy yarI, San Francisco.
Steam was up and everything Was
in readiness for the departure of the
Bennington when the starboard for
ward boiler exploded with deafeu-
ing roar. The explosion was terrific
People star ding On shore saw a huge
cloud OF steam rise above the Benning-
ton. Columns of water were forced
high into the air. A dozen or fifteen
men were blown overheard by the
force of the terrific explosion. Cap
tain Wentworth, who was looking at
the Bennington when the disaster oc-
CURED, says he saw human bodies
hurled over hundred feet upward.
The air was clouded with smoke,
which enTeloped the ship. When the
haze cleared away, only few men
could be seen on the decks, while a
number we're laundering in the water.
A boat was lowered from the vessels
side and most of the men in the water
were picFe9 up and taken on board

The ferryboat Ramona, which was

ty is interested are such, however,
that the people of this entire sec
ton are content to trust it's fate to
a commission of fair-minded men,
no matter from what section of the
state they may hail. We are not
asking for a road in Washington
county. What we desire is a road
in Idaho county, from Warren to
Big creek-a road which will open
the mines of that district to the
markets of not only Weiser and
Washington county, but to Boise
and Long valley and to Grange
vile, Sites and north Idaho. A
modest sum for this very necessary
highway is only asked, and the
citizens of this section will do as
they have done in the past, con-
tribute generously from their pri-
vate purse. AS we stated above, it
is immaterial to us as to whom
shall constitute the commission, so
long as they are men of fairness
and discernment. Our cause is Just,

We publish in this issue a letter
from Mr.. R. A. Hendricks, of Squaw
meadows, in which he advocates
telephone line between Warren
and Meadows via Lardo. The OBJ
ject is worthy one, and Mr.. Hen
bricks shows commendable enter
prise in taking hold of it. We are
not sure that an independent tele-
phone line fifty miles in length
to connect the two named places
would be a profitable proposition.
knowing nothing of the probable
cost in first place, expense of main
tanning the service, and the amount
of business that would be done.
between Meadows and Warren the
country is very sparsely settled,
and the expense of continuing the
service, if established, would fall
mainly on the terminal points.
Perhaps the work Mr.. Hendricks is
doing and the figures he is obtain
ing will show the proposition favor
ably. We shall be pleased to help
the project along, especially if it
can be shown as a slayer, for such
enterprises help to build up the
country.

WARREN, BIG CREEK ROAD.

We heartily indorse an article
which we republish from the Wei
ser World in regard to the road
commission. Since the article was
published, Governor Cooling has
appointed the members Of the com
mission, who are Senator M. E..
Lewis of Latah county, and Joseph
Wheeler of Shoshone, Lincoln coun-
ty. The World was right in it's
prediction, neither of these men
are from the counties directly in
terested in the interior wagon
roads.
We have no doubt that a fair
and impartial inquiry into the
merits of the Warren and Big creek
wagon road proposition will result
in the commission undertaking to
build it, and that work on the road
will commence at an early date.
The benefit of such road will
effect a large section of the state,
and will not be purely local There
is an immense quantity of mining
ms hi, 10 81
the west side of the Payette lake,
destined for the Smith creek section
of the Big Greek district, and it has
laid there for many months because
of the road difficulty. All this
machinery, representing value of
many thousands of dollars, will be
taken into the mining country as
soon as transportation is feasible
and work commenced on very val |
liable mining property that cannot
now be worked for lack of this
machinery.
The opening up of the country
that would be tapped by the road
in question will develop mining to
a very great extent and open up
big markets for the produce of the
farm and ranch, thus materially
benefitting the whole state.
