The convention was dominated
by Senator Dubois but the senior
senator did not have things all
his own way by no means as was
shown by the strenuous Oppo-
sition at times during the con-
vention. Dubois and Stockslager
let it be known before the con-
vention that they wished to be
nominated on an Anti-MormOn
platform and they got what they
asked for. That section of the
platform adopted which is con.
sidered a direct blow at Mormon
church interference in politics
reads as follows:
I'VE demand the extermina.
ton of polygamy and unlawful
cohabitation within the state O1
Idaho and the complete separa'
ton of church and state in politi
cal affairs. We pledge the peO
pie of Idaho that in the event o.
democratic success at the polls ir
November we will make effective
by legislative enactment the wis
and patriotic declarations in Ou
constitution, contained in section
III, article 6, which reads a
follows:

BOILED HER BABY.
A Spray, Ore, Woman Let Her Baby
Cook While Hunting Eggs.

A Spray, Ore, Woman Let Her Baby
Cook While Hunting Eggs.
And this is the latest: A little
baby came to Mr.. and Mrs. Haws,
who live near Spray, and Mrs. Haws
bathed the baby and watched him
grow, and boasted of his prowess to
the neighbors, aud thought to herself
"there is not many of us lett" and
few days ago when bathing time
came the baby was placed in his bath
pan, and as the fire had gone out, she
thought, she put the pan on the stove,
which was cool enough for her to
bear her hand on it, so that the gentle
warmth of the stove would keep the
water from chilling the baby. Then
she went to hunt the eggs, or gossip
with the neighbor a little while and
left the baby in soak. After while
she was called in by the agonizing
screams of the little one. When she
reached the stove the steam was rising
from the pan and the baby was going
through all the contortions of an
acrobat, while his cuticle had assumed
the color of a boiled lobster. The
fire had started up and the water had
almost reached the boiling point.
There is no specific legislation against
a woman boiling her baby in this
manner, but there should be, and the
penalty made the same as the punish
ment the baby receives. Hood River

WILL NOT MERGE
NEWCOMERS NOT CLASSED as
REPUBLICAN VOTERS.
Thousands Will Cast Their Votes for
the First Time In Oregon
This Year.

A few of the republicans who take a
superficial view Of affairs profess to
feel somewhat elated at the fact that
throughout the state the republican
registration is considerably larger
than that of the democrats. 1t must
be remembered in this connection
that there are thousands of newcomers
in Oregon who will cast their first
vote in this state at the coming cleo
ton. Many of these men come here
from the strong repu blican states of
the Middle West. On their native
heath they were republicans; in Ore
gon they are facing dilemma.
The republican party in Iowa or
Michigan and the scandal stained
grating organization that bears that
name in Oregon are two entirely diff
erent propositions.
In many states in the north and
Middle West, men cast their republi-
can votes with a certain degree of
pride; in this state the same act must
be followed up with lot of explana-
tions and apologies. Oregon republi-
cans do not stand well in the east.
When members of the G. O. P. show
up at the national capital with re-
quest, they must accompany their
petition with long bill of exceptions.
The average newcomer knows little
of the several factions in Oregon re-
publicanism, and he cares less. But
he does know a great deal of the Ore
gon land frauds. He has heard all
about the unprecedented and disgrace
full condition of the state having 70
per cent of its members in congress
under indictment in the courts at the
same time. He does not know that
the republican party in Oregon has so
arranged things that the state printer,
the secretary of state and the state
treasurer can graft from the Oregon
taxpayers, sums that are as large as
the salary of tho president of the
United States They know that such
statesmen as Abraham Lincoln man
aged to serve their country and keep
the wolf from the door on $25, 1000 a
year. They cannot understand why
the Oregon republicans want to give
the Frank Bakers, the Whitneys and
the Dunbars twice that much.
Abraham Lincoln in the same class
with Frank Baker, Dunbar and Whit
ney and such likel Merciful heavens
forbid
These are some of the reasons why
80 many of the newcomers to the state
cannot be corralled by the old ma
chine republicans but on local issue
they will take no land fraud and
wholesale gratis in theirs.

 WITH TARGET RIFLE.

 with Bullet.

A lovers quarrel, rash deter animation to lend it ali," rifle shot, and an estimable family mourns the loss of a son and a large circle of friends mourn the death of young man who was much admired and respected.
 Eugenio Gayou, twenty-two years old, after quarrel with his sixteen years-old sweetheart, yes terday afternoon at 4:30 shot him. self through the heart with a small target rifle. The wound i'm fiicted, like Mercutio's, was not so wide as a door, nor so deep as a well, but 1t was sufficient. Death was instantaneous.
 The young man had been to visit the young lady at her home during the afternoon. They quar- relied as lovers will, and rushing from the house, the rash youth an nounced to the young girl his in- tention to kill himself. The girl, Miss Adriana Ortiz, did not believe he meant 1t, but not many min- utes later was mortified to hear that Eugenio was dead.
 The youth walked rapidly from his sweetheart's home to his own, where he entered the stable, closed the door, and taking the small target rifle, which he pressed close over his heart, fired the fatal shot.
 A little sister of the young man heard the shot and ran to the stable door. Inside she saw her brother lying upon the floor already in the throes of death. Screaming, she ran to the house and alarmed her mother, who was next to reach the stable door The sight of her son lying dead upon the floor of the stable made her hysterical and she ran to the street calling for help.

PERHAPS FATALLY INJURED.
Aged Woman Struck by Switch Engine
 in Sonora Railroad Yards.

Thursday morning an aged woman, Mrs. Navarrete, was struck by the switch engine in the Sonora railroad yards in Nogales, Sonora, and received injuries that will probably prove fatal. Both thighs were crushed and at the time it was not supposed the old lady would live more than a few hours. However, she survived through the day and night and yesterday one leg was amputated and she withstood the operation, despite the fact that she is more than three score years and ten. It is not believed, however, that she will survive her injuries and death is expected Ut any time.
 Mrs. Navarrete is seventy-five years old The family was about to leave Nogales for Cananea by wagon and the wagon laden with the houseold goods was standing in front of the Mexican custom house for inspection, when the old lady had occasion to cross the tracks. The switch engine was at work in the yards and the woman, being very deaf, stepped in front of 1t.
