that the new provision makes the aili-
ance applicable 10 all Asia up TO the

A Horrible Accident.

One of the most distressing acct
dents to happen in Weiser for many
years occurred Wednesday afternoon
when, Clarence, the Swear old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Gerdue, had
his left leg broken in two places be-
low the knee and the flesh was badly
lacerated. He was riding with an
older brother in delivery wagon in
the eastern part of town when the two.
boys like, began scuffling and Clar-
ence unfortunately lost his balance
and fell out, his leg catching in the
wheel with the above awful results.
The little fellow was taken to his
home and physician was speedily
summoned. It was thought amputa-
ton was necessary and Mr.. and Mrs.
Gerdue took the child on the early
morning train to the hospital at Baker
City. While their many friends will
regret to hear of the accident they
will be pleased to know that the lit
tie fellow is resting nicely and unless
unforeseen complications arise ampu-
tation will not be necessary. Mr..
Gerdue returned home Thursday.

THAT 500, 900 SCARE.

1t seems to us that Charley Arney.
private secretary TO Senstor Dubois.
has perpetrated' the choicest bit of
irony that has come out for some
time. AS every one knows, Charley
is the private secretary of Senator
Dubois, and shares with all the other
friends of the Senator the knowledge
that Fred is and always has been a
poor man. There is not single one
among the numerous devoted follow
ers, whom he has held close to him for
twenty years of public life, who ever
received dollar from him in consid :
Grafton of their support. AS mat
ter of fact, his friends always have to
chip in" to carry on his campaigns
1t is also known that beginning before
the last election, the allies of the
Mormons in both Republican and
Democrhtlc parties, aided by Mormon
money, have been securing one by one

Railway Activity in WsiSa.

The Signal sleuth paid visit to
the yards and offices of the P. & 1. N.
Ry. Thursday afternoon and was much
surprised to note the great activity
throughout all departments. General
Manager Heigho is perhaps the bust
est man in town looking after the
numerous improvements and changes
being made for the purpose of expe-
diting the rapidly increasing work.
AT the round house Master Mechanic
j. Caron has almost completed new
caboose, the first one built in Weiser.
and everything except the trucks was
made here. The new car is 20 feet
and inches long. equipped with two
pair of double trucks, has large
cupola and all modern conveniences
in the interior for trainmen or pas
sengers. 1t is splendid piece of
work and speaks very highly for Mr.
Caron's ability as mechanic. The
neat job Of painting is being done by
Fred Carpenter. A third track is be-
ing put in from the turn table to the
roundhouse for the new engine which
has been ordered and expected to ar
rive from the east in two or three
weeks new passenger coach has
also been ordered and expected to ar
rive soon which will be put on reeu
lar service between Boise and Pavetta
lakes. 1t is reported that three trains
will soon be put on the road, a pas
senger freight and construction train.
as 1t is the desire of Mr.. Heigho TO
give the passengers the best service
possible and avoid the monotonv of
travelling on a mixed train.
AT the big office building changes
have been made all around. Every
Office except two is occupied aud the
vacant ones will also be as soon as

POLITICAL CHAT (!


Referring again to the possible de.
mand on Senator Dubois to stand TO,
governor on the democratic ticket
next year, the Spokesman Review
adds:
There is promise of the most bril-
liantly interesting and perhaps the
most important contest ever made in
Idaho in the suggestion that is being
fostered by leading democrats of that
state. These stalwart and thorough
going workers for their party propose
to nominate United States Senator
Fred I. Dubois as the democratic
candidate for Governor in 1906. The
mere mention of the plan opens a
vista OF hot political warfare, with
the experienced and capable senator
carrying the fighting into the enemies'
camps from the outset.
Mr.. Dubois term in the senate will
expire with the close of the present
congress In 1907, and the choice OF
bis successor will therefore fall TO the
next legislature, which will be elected
at the same time as the governor.
namely in November, 1906. The
plan to nominate him for governor is
said to be favored by many democrats.

Lords Amounted" to Have
More Sport.
(Salt Lake Tribune)


The organ of the church and of
prize fights make special spread on
its first page last night announcing
in loaded minion, under three-line
head, and all enclosed in conspicu-
GUS border, the coming fight in this
city between Mike Schreck and Bob
Fitzsimmons. This seems to be a
sort Of quasi official endorsement of
the affair, which will no doubt, as
usual, be sanctified by the presence of
President Joseph F. Smith, the only
genuine, unadulterated, blown in
the bottle representative of "the
Lord" in the world. Sport and spir-
itual excellence, however, are not
noted as abiding In strength and am
ity in any one tabernacle, and it is
not surprising that spirituality is
wholly lacking In the sporty presi-
dent of the Mormon church.

Awful T[agsdY in California.

San Rafael, CAL, May "a. Will
liam Stephens, who lived at Ross
Valley, Marion county, today killed
his wife. shot his five children, three
of whom died instantly, attempted to
kill passing milkman and then ended
his own life, firing two bullets into
his body.
Stephens, who formerly was book
agent, was employed in San Fran
cisco mercantile house and his family
conducted a chicken ranch at their
country home, keeping thousand of
fowls.
AS the milkman was passing the
house this morning Stephens ran out
and fred on him. The milkman
whipped up his horses, but Stephens
pursued him for 200 yards, firing as
he ran. Stephens then stopped and
fired bullet into his breast and an
other into his brain.
When neighbors and officers en-
tered the Stephens home they found
the dead and dying in all the beds.
The wife and three children were
dead, each with bullet in the brain,
and it is believed the two surviving
children cannot live. The children
ranged from one to IL years. No
motive is known for the tragedy and
it is believed Stephens undoubtedly
became suddenly insane.

united support of his own party in
the state, including the small faction
headed by Ex-Governor Steunen berg.
Perhaps, however, even if this divi-
sion of the democrats should fail to
give their loyal support to the nomi-
nee, he might count on other forces
to compensate for the loss. In an
anti Mormon fight, Senator Dubois
could probably command the votes of
many republicans, unless their own
candidate represented as unequivo-
cally as does he the opposition to
Mormon rule in Idaho; and it is GER
tain that, because of his square stand
on this question, he would command
an unusually large vote among the
women. The Republican organiza.
tion in Idaho is not so we'll drilled or
in such shape as to prevent heavy
detection of republican voters to Du-
bois on this issue, unless the repub-
licans should nominate a candidate
and present platform equally anti
Mormon.
Should Mr.. Dubois be nominated,
his campaign will be watched by the
whole country with interest such has
been called forth by few recent guber-
Material fights. The American peo-
pie are deeply concerned over the
question whether or not a church
which aims to control the states of
the west shall be curbed in its pro-
gress. - M

Immediately every one Of the papers

Gifts published the story that Dubois
was going to buy them all up with
this 500, 900.
We wonder IL this bit of irony on
Arpey's part induced the Mormons to
buy out Broxon and the Pocatello
Advance, in order 10 make il an open
Mormon paper. Broxon certainly
was a good enough Mormon advocate,
and 1T would be the height of cruelty
