CONGRESSMAN Cushman Stands bQ
His Colleague, Jones
GoMPERs MUST FIGHT ALL THREE
IN BIG MEETING SPEAKER DE.
EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE.

Congressman Frank w. Cushman,
in his address at the Keylor Grand
last night, which opened the campaign
for the republican party in WalIa Wal
la county, placed himself shoulder to
shoulder with his colleague, Wesley L.
Jones, in the battle being waged on
the latter by Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor.
Mr.. Cushman brought out pointedly
that the only sin charged against the
man from North Yakima was that
he had voted against the bill providing
for an eight-hour day at Panama and
dramatically Grained that this was
Roosevelt's idea. He said he and his
colleague, Humphreys, had also voted
for the bill and that organized labor
wanted to fight Jones it should fight
all three, to be consistent.
Discusses Principles.
The address was mainly an EXPOSE
ton of the familiar principles of re-
publioanism.
The speaker outlined the A. B. c. of
the tariff question showing that what
benefited the manufacturer benefited
the whole country because under a
free trade policy the mill owner was
reducted to the alternative Of closing
down or cutting wages.
The hit of the evening was the reel
tation of a humorous poem on the
death of the free silver champion. The
speaker was fair to his opponents,
allowing that men could be honest and
differ in opinions, but asserted that
principles and not men were the things
which men should stand by and that
the principles of the republican par
tv had brought prosperity to the coun-
ty
He punctured the claim Of the DEM
ocrats that increased production OF
gold was the cause of prosperity by

States the increase in production had

FOUND AFTER 4 TWO DAYS SEARCH
scoLpED REscUERs FOR SCAR.
ING AWAY HER "NIcE LIT
TIE DOGGIES."

ST. JOSEPH, Mimi, Oct. 12-After
being lost for two days, during which
the entire countryside turned out to
ioin in hunt for ner, 4-year-old Mar
garet Schweitzer, daughter OF a we'll
TODD farmer of Brockaway township,
was found unframed in a VOLTS den
in the forest near here. The child was
well and apparently contented, but
scolded her rescuers for having driv-
en- away the mice little doggies" with
which she had been playing.
Accompanied by an older brother
and sister and some other children,
the child went to the woods to gather
nuts. She became separated from the
others. and when it was time to go
home her companions looked every
where for her, but not seeing her
fastened home to inform their par
ents. A searching party was imme-
diately formed and twenty farmers
secured the woods all of that night
in vain search for the little one.
On the second day one of the search
ers came to a small hill thickly COW
cred with pine and a heavy growth
of underbrush. He found a path lead
ing into the thicket and by the path
he found a little blue sunbonnet. The
man was compelled to go on all fours
to follow the trail, but finally reached
the VOLTS lair. In the cleared space
around it were strewn chicken bones
and feathers, bits of sheep pelts and
bones
An awful fear of the child's fate
flashed through the searchers mind
and he was about to leave the place,
when ne noticed the little one sitting
at the back of the den, with one club
by arm around the neck of wolf cub,
which scampered away as the search
err approached. He quickly snatched
out of what he considered danger
GUS locality.
The child said that she had discov-
cred the path leading into the thicket
and had followed it and that there
was four nice little doggies in there"
and that she hadn't been cold or num-
cry because she had plenty of nuts
to eat.

Michigan Farmer Found Fastened

MAY HAVE Been CASE OF SUICIDE
PHYSICIANS BELIEVE THAT SOME
DEADLY POISON ENDED.
THE MANS LIFE.

MANISTIQUE, Mich, Oct. Ian
air of mystery surrounds the death
of Archie Smith, a well-to-do School
craft farmer. The deceased had been
missing for a number of days and
when his corpse was finally found 1t
was under such circumstances as to
indicate suicide.
A loose moose made of shOestrings
was found about the neck and was
fastened to a tree trunk by leather
strap. However, while casual lnd1ca-
tons pointed to hanging it was discov-
cred that this was a blind. 1nvest1-
CATION has proven that death was not
caused by strangulation and that heart
disease was not responsible.
That it was some deadly and pene-
trating poison that ended the life OF
the farmer is the opinion of the ply

administered is something yet to De

MANY PEOPLE DESIRE TO CONE nj

A greater Walla Walla is the motto
of the commercial club these days.
it is the opinion of the secretary that
one of the important means to this
end it to build up the suburbs.
One thing that deters people from
building in the outlying districts is
lack of sewage and water connections.
These are not supplied outside Of the
corporate limits. For this reason the
club is urging the adoption of the new
charter to extend the boundaries Of
Walla Walla.
Many inquiries are being received
at the office of the secretary asking
what districts would be included in
the proposed increase.
yesterday, Otis Jackson, of the firm
Of Green & Jackson, made inquiries
of this kind" said Mr.. Moore. "R4

yond the present limits if water and
