A governor is to be elected TINS

The influences which will affect the
head of the ticket will be felt by
all the other candidates. And the
labor fight has developed into a
fight of the American Federation
of Labor on Governor Gooding.
who is charged with an attempt
to hang the officers of the Western
Federation of Miners "as an ex.
ample and a menace to organized
labor"
So both factions stand charged
with conspiracy to murder. The
men in jail are charged by the
state with being a band of mercen-
airy dynamiters; the governor and
state officers are charged by or
ganized labor with conspiring in
behalf of the capitalistic interests
to railroad two innocent men to the
gallows. And this is the issue
which is to be tried ont at the
polls, even before the case against
the men under arrest has been
tried in court.
The democrats have Endorsed a
man for governor who is regarded
as favorable to Meyer and Hay
wood, namely Judge c. o. Stock
slayer, of the state supreme court.
The judge puts it automatically
that he will mot use the executive
authority to interfere with the
proper prerogatives of the court
or words to that effect. Governor

BOISE CITY. Idaho, Sept. IS
Politics in Idaho is a strange mix
up of Mormonism and labor trou-
bles. Republicanism and democ-
racy are but names.
The question whether United
States Senator Fred Dubois will
be returned to the senate is one
of those to be determined at this
falls elections. Another matter is
the fate of the new anti-Mormon
party, which Senator Dubois has
been chiefly instrumental in Great
ing.
And third, and quite as import
ant question, Is that involved in the

ing officers of the Western Fedora

with the terrible murder by a
bomb of former Governor Steuen-
berg of this state.
The state is rent with factiOnal-
ism and the people are very bitter.

been named. the American party, is
really the creation OF Senator Fred

Five years ago he was returned

nowhere and Dubois is without a
party.
Confronted with this situation,
and with return to private life
again staring him in the face, the
astute Idaho senator attempted a
bold stroke. He saw his state
made up of two-thirds gentiles and
one-third Mormons. He figured that
If he could raise the religious Issue

arose the American party.

CASH IN
TIME TO STOP |
DIVORCE: |

GALVESTON, Tex, Sept. 49,
Six twenty dollar gold pieces found
in a jar OF jam one day last week
brought about a reconciliation be-
tween John Carter and his wife.
The COUP had brought their trou-
bles into the divorce court, and
while the judge was puzzling over
the case Mrs. Carter rushed into
court and exclaimed excitedly: ITS
all right; I've found the money.
John can come home now" And
John went home.
The trouble began several weeks
ago. Mrs. Carter was alone one
night and thought she heard burg
lars. She had six twenty dollar
gold pieces in the house, earned Dy
herself and saved for the medical
care of her little son, who is a
cripple. Fearing that the money
would be stolen, she arose in the
night and went into the pantry,
where in the darkness she dropped
the money into what she supposed
was an empty jar. Next morning
she met her husband coming out
of the pantry with what she termed
in court "a mighty guilty look in
his eyes" Upon looking into the
jam jar Mrs. Carter found that the
money was not there She lmme-
diately jumped to the conclusion
that John had taken the money and
then the trouble began. Rolling

STRIKE At GREAT FALLS
Smeltermen of the Amalgamated
Copper Company Want Com
mittee Recognized.

Butte, Aug. "A Miner special from
Great Falls states that the eectrolytic
smelters of the Boston & Montana COM
pany of the Amalgamated Copper COM
pany closed down this evening as the re-
suit of a strike of the smeltermen, follow
ing the refusal OF Superintendent Wheeler,
of the works to recognize a committee
for the mill and smeltermens union,
which demanded that five discharged
smelter men be reinstated. Posters have
been tackled up about the plant notifying
all smeltermen that a strike is on. Pick
cts have been posted to prevent any
wOrkmen from entering. Superintendent
Wheeler has issued a notice that all must
report for work Saturday as the company
must know by that time if the men are to
return to work. The strike affects 5000
men in Cascade county, employed in the
smelters, railroads, coal camps and other
industries connected with the Amalga-
mated industry. About 1900 miners in the
Boston & Montana mines in Butte are af-
fected, as it will be necessary to close
down the property if the shutdown con-
tinues. The Boston & Montana electro
lytic smelters are the largest in the world
handling about 1900 tons of ore daily from
the Butte mines.

MAY BUILD POWER PLANT
Waters of Spring Greek Likely to Be
Used by Salt Lake & Og-
den Railway.

Simon Bamberger, president and gem
eral manager of the Salt Lake & Ogden
Railway company, accompanied by Chief
Engineer E. A. Vail and party, made a
trip to Spring canyon, twenty-eight miles
from Ogden, on Wednesday, for the pur-
pose of inspecting a site for a power
plant, which it is said they propose to
erect there. Information concerning
coplous supply of water there was given
10 the management of the road and eff
forts were made to keep the matter quiet
until all negotiations had been completed.
1t is understood, however, that they have
secured options on the property and with
IN a snort time Will commence preliminary
work for the construction of power plant
for light and power purposes.
The site visited is in a branch fork OF
the South Fork canyon above Beaver, at
the head of what is known as Spring
creek. 1t is said that the result of the
investigation was entirely satisfactory,
and that the project is even better than
had been represented. The water is said
to bubble from an immense spring in the
mountain side in a supply that is entirely
adequate for the purposes 10 which 1t is
the intention TO apply it. 1t is claimed
that by piping the water distance of one
mile a 6O0-foot fall can be secured The
location is ideal for a power plant and
the water is cool and clear as a crystal.
Mr. Bamberger is enthusiastic over the
proposition although when seen yesterday
would neither affirm nor deny that he
proposed to erect a power plant. 1t is
estimated that the building of a power
plant together with the necessary trans
mission lines can be accomplished with
an outlay of probably 100000 If these
plans are carried out, the power for the
road between Salt Lake and the mouth of
Ogden canyon will be supplied from the
Spring canyon plant.

hama last Monday night off BrentOn's
Reef lightship, continued its sessions to-
day on board the Illinois. The president
OF the board is Captain Benjamin s. Tul-

nois four of the six-inch guns on the star
board side forward were damaged, and a
portion OF the forward gun deck was

Alabama sustained severe damage TO two
OF her six-inch guns. one of them being
bent badly. A compartment around a
easement on the port side forward is

FIVE men ARE AFFECTED
Councilmen Must Now Stand Trial
or Resign, Is Skeen's Dec
laration.

The news of the action of the supreme
court in affirming the decision of the
lower court in the j. D. Skeen VS.. Fred w.
Chambers case and reversing the Skeen
VS.. Craig case, was the sole topic here
yesterday afternoon.
There are four others, who with Cham-
bers, composed the body that passed what
has been determined to be illegal appro-
priatiOns for its members, that will be az
fected by the decision. They are: w
RoHo Emmett, Democrat, from the Fourtn
ward; A. II. Moves, Republican from the
Second ward; Robert Paine, Republican
from the First ward and William Craig
Republican, from the Second ward. Sew
eral of the men affected have announced
that i'll case OF such decision that tney
would resign from the council. William
Craig, who was elected president of the
council. when Chambers was thrown out,
was tried in the Second district court on
practically the same charges that were
made against Chambers and was acqult-
ted. He will either have TO stand trial
again or send in his resignation.
These actions were filed by j, ID. Skeen,
a local attorney. who was laughed at
when he called upon the councilman TO re-
fund the money, which they had ,appro-
priated to their own use: Mr.. Skeen FOL
lowed this rebuff up with an open let
ter to the five members of the council
that they must either pay back the money
thus appropriated and resign or he would
bring actions against them, asking Tor
their removal from office. This was
sneered at also, but when an accusation
was filed against Chambers, who was
then president of the council and former
Mayor William Gasmann's right hand
man. they began to sit up and take notice.
When a conviction was secured they were
completely taken back. An accusation
against Craig before the ending of the
Chambers case further demonstrated that
Skeen meant business. Other accusations
were ready to be filed by the young at
hI1f with account
the two cases being carried to the supreme
court.
Mr. Skeen will wait for a short time
for the other members of the council to
file their designations and if they are
not forthcoming he will proceed against
them Since the former trials additional
evidence has been obtained by the special
committee, who audited the city books

Is HELD FOR MURDER.
James n. Crawford Must Stand Trial
for Killing c. c. Lcckhart.

James H. Crawford the colored man
who on July q shot and killed c. c. Lock
hart, another negro, was yesterday bound
over TO the district court on a charge of
murder in the first degree, without bail.
The hearing occupied the best part of two
days during which a score of witnesses
gave testimony. But few new facts were
brought out. The woman in the case,
Mrs. Anna Braiswell was on the stand
yesterday and the only new feature re-
ferred to in her testimony was the fact
that Lockhart at different times had told
her of a cutting scrape he had been in
and which was his cause for leaving
Butte. John Lawrence, also colOred said
that Lockhart. on the day of the killing
had stated that when he had picked up d
stone near the Braiswell home, Crawford
with a gun had made him drop it. Lock-
hart then exhibited pawn ticket for a
him money with which TO redeem it,
When this was refused he tried to Dor
row Lawrence's gun so that he might
have an even break when he ran into
Crawford. This request was also denied
and ne went away.
The most important bit of testimony Of
fered was that of James Gray, the cOlored
porter of the Bright barber shop, upon
the steps of which the crime was com
mitted. Gray says his attention was first
attracted by loud talking at the head of
the stairway. He said:
Il heard Crawford say to Lockhart
uOn go down most steps or L Will ShOOC
you,' Lockhart said I viii and ran down
the stairway to the bottom, where he
tried to open the door. Crawford followed
with the gun in his hand. When Lock-
hart failed TO get the door open, he turned
and grabbed the gun with his left hand, at
the same time striking Crawford with the
right hand. Crawford attempted TO jerk
the gun loose and in doing so Lockhart
was swung around so that he was one
step higher than Crawford. Lockhart still
had hOiu on the gun when the shot was
fired"
All effort on the part of the prosecution
failed TO break down the testimony of
Gray, which is considered the most i'm
portant yet unearthed by the defense,

DIFFERENCES EXIST.
British Lords and Commons Do Not
Agree on Educational Bill.

London, Aug. 1.-The debate on the sec
ond reading of the educational bill was
continued in the house of lords today.
Referring 10 the bill the Duke of Devon
shire said:
1T is the duty of this house TO show
the country that ii is opposed to the Vio-
lent and unnecessary disturbances of our
educational system, which has existed for
the past thirty-siX years and of which we
have no cause TO be ashamed. Until we
have done this and until we know how
our efforts in that direction are regard
ed by his majeSty's government and the
other house of parliament. this house will
not be called upon to take that final and
mOmentOus decision which at some later
Period will have TO be taken and which
may involve consequences far wider than
any now involved in connection with the
present bill"
- These words from the Duke of Devon
shire are taken as. foreshadOwing a grave
conflict in both houses should the govern
ment prove implacable and not bring
measure more in line with the opinions OF
the peers.

AMERICAN MEAT CLEANLY
Opinion of Norwegian Chief veter-
mary Who Inspected the
Packing Houses.

New York, Aug. DIR. Adolf Jacobsen,
chief veterinary inspector of the City of
Christiania, Norway, who has been in
spect1ng American packing houses in be-
half of the Norwegian government, sailed
today on the Oskar II for Copenhagen
and Christiania. During his stay here he
inspected packing houses at Chicago,
Kansas City and New York and visited
Washington during the examination of ap-
plicantS for the new meat inspectorships.
The big plants which L inspected were
most cleanly and satisfactory in their
manner of operation. said DR.. Jacobsen,
speaking of his Investigations at Chicago,
which were the chief object of his visit.
Before his departure DR.. Jacobsen re-
marked that if his home government
acted upon his recommendations that
there would be much more American
canned meat and barreled beef bought
in this country than there has been here
tOfore. He saw no reason, he said, TO put
any sort of restrictions upon American
meat products bearing the government
stamp.
