Never before in a campaign in
Idaho have such malicious lies been
published regarding the republican
nominee for governor as are now
being circulated against Gooding.
At a meeting at New Plymouth,
Canyon county, one of Senator Du-
bois' imported defenders of the
purity of our homes said: 81 am in.
formed by responsible parties that
Governor Gooding is Mormon and
has two wives" That is such a
ridiculous lie that it needs no denial.
In another section of the state it
was charged that Lincoln county
was compelled to bring suit against
the governor to collect delinquent
taxes. That is also a malicious lie
If the governor is delinquent in taxes
the comfy would proceed according
to law TO collect the money, and thai
Is by selling property at public auc
ton, and not by bringing suit agains
the governor. These, and other lie
which are circulated, show the DIES
perate straits IN which Duboi
and his followers are in. They arr
not discussing political issues at al
this campaign, but are working OF
the prejudices of the people IN tn
hope of gaining votes.

This is to certify that MIR. w. X.

His services have been satisfactory in
every respect. Mr.. Holmes having re
ceived the nomination for County Aud

MAKE IT COMPLETE.

If Judge Stockslager should be
elected governor, he would appoint
Dubois men to every office within
his gift. The warden of the peni-
Tertiary and all the employees of
that institution would be Dubois
men. There would be a Dubois
man at the head of the land depart
ment. The state immigration com
missioner would be Dubois man.
There would be none but Dubois
men among the employees of the
state house. There would be Du-
bois men eyerYwhere-not single
anti-Dubois man woald be given q
position under the state government
The gang of Dubois shouter'
would constitute a political machine
to be put in motion in the interests
of Dubois whenever it was needeo
and it would be an all powerful as
sistance to the latter IN the campaign
two years hence.
Those who do not want to hell
Dubois should see to 1t that his can
dldate for governor is showed unde
on Nov. 9th when the Senator, him
self, will be buried beneath al
avalanche of ballots. 1t Is neces
sary to make the job complete, 70
it would cert ainly be folly to leay
spark of life in the Dubois organ
ization by placing single Duboi
man in office.

Taking Out Rich Ore.

The Bonneville Mining company, who
have bought the Claire Mining company
ground, after doing a months develop
ment work, have started to take out
ore. From large samples brought to
town this week it is certain that what
they are taking out is about as rich
copper ore,a rs was ever dug from any
mine in the west. The ore contains no
base metals of any kind except copper
and there is good values in silver. A
test of the rock shows more than fifty
per cent copper in the richest and Man
ager Eastman thinks the ore coming
out now will net the company at least
$50 per ton. They have some fifty tons
knocked down and this is being hoisted
as fast as their primitive machinery
will do it The intention is to ship a
carload within few days. The rock
shows solid blocks of black oxide of
copper. and it will be very easy to treat
containing as it does high per cent of
carbon. The belt is gaining in popular
ity every day as the Bonneville people
go ahead with their work of developing.
The Copper King people, who adjoin
the Bonneville on the north. have
caught the fever and are preparing to
begin extensive development work on
their claims. They will let a contract
in a short time, for the extension of
their tunnel which is being driven to
tap the lead at some two hundred feet
depth. When it reaches the lead it il
expected they will be in very high grade
ore, similar to that being taken ont Of
the Bonneville ground.
The Bonneville company are selling
considerable of their stock, but the al
J lotment is not very large, as present il
dications point to the mine being large
ly self sustaining proposition. Thos'
who have questioned the probability o
there being any good ore up in the bel
should see the rock that is coming on
of this property. 1t certainly is splAn
did showing and is improving witt
every foot of new work

1t seems rather strange that the
women of Boston, New York and
Philadelphia should SO suddenly be-
come interested IN the purity of the
Idaho homes. IL they are really
sincere In their efforts to raise the
moral standard of our homes, and
if conditions exist as they are today
picturing them, why have not these
good women been at work for the
past two years or more? The sin
cerity Of their work would not now
be doubted if they did not confine
their labors to the few weeks prior
to the election.

TAFT In IDAHO.
Foremost Member Of Roosevelt's
Cabinet VIII Speak at Poca-
tello and Boise.

Secretary of State Taft will speak
at Pocatello Friday, Nov. . and at
Boise Saturday, Nov. 8. A Wash
lngton dispatch, in referring to the
secretary's trip to Idaho. says:
s'The President has chosen Secre
tary Taft to go to Idaho because he
is the most forceful of any of his
advisers. In his address the secre-
tary will confne himself almost en-
tire1y to discussion Of the question
of law and order and will leave no
doubt In the minds of his hearers
that he, the president and his entire
administration, look to Idaho to
save the good name of the Gem state
by recording an overwhelming ma.
jorlty for the Republican ticket
The president thoroughly approves
the course taken by Governor Good
ing in the Steunenberg matter and
is so intensely IN earnest that hi
instructions TO Taft would leave tn,
secretary little option, if he had in
clination to choose some other topic
but Secretary Taft Is as much con
cerned as the president. "

Again we wish is impress upon
the republicans of Bear Lake Coun-
ty the fact that not single nominee
on the ticket was placed there for
the purpose of being traded off.
The entire ticket is deserving of the
support of every republican in the
county, and under the existing con
ditlons there is no reason why the
ticket should not receive the united
republican vote of the county.

Stockslager, ID letter to gentle
man in this county, says that he
stands squarely on the Dubois plat
form. Therefore, a vote for Stock.
Slayer for governor is vote for
Dubois, and also vote in favor of
DISTINGUISHING 40, 900 citizens of our

Located a Brother.

A few weeks ago when Mr.. Gage,
civil engineer from the east, was here
with J. A. Bagley, he met Chief of
Police Burke and in conversation with
him asked Mr.. Burke if he had a brother
in Denver. MIR. Burke replied that he
had brother somewhere in this country
whom he had not heard from for nearly
80 years. Mr.. Gage said that the Mr..
Burke he knew in Denver certainly
must be a near relative of Toms for
they resembled each other enough to be
brothers. He also conveyed to our
chief of police the cheerful news that
the Denver Burke was worth consid
cradle over q million dollars, being
heavily interested in Colorado mines
and Denver real estate.
Mr.. Burhe Immediately wrote to two
brothers who reside at Brady Island.
Neb and told them what he had learn
ed and asked them TO go to Denver and
ascertain If the gentleman was their
brother. They did 80, and in few
moments after locating the Denver
Burke, they found that they had net
their long unheard of brother, in the
person of w. ]. Burke.
In relating the incident to us. Chief
of Police Burke said that his brother,
Will, left his fathers home in Nebraska
nearly 80 years ago. He was at that
time about 81 years old and like many
another young man has done, he started
out to see the country, with 10 fixed
purpose in view. He roughed it ovor
Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona
for several years, and finally made a
lucky strike in mining venture, aud
fortune had ever since smiled upon him.
To his brothers, who met him in Denver
he could give no very good excuse for
never writing home, except that he had
just neglected it 80 long that he finally
lost all interest in home. He has never
married and for il years has made bis
home at one of Denver's leading hotels
The statement Mr.. Gage made regard
ing his wealth was not exaggerated
and Mr.. Burke says his brothers wrote
that Will is travelling in the millionaire
class. and was interested in some eff the
richest mines in Colorado.

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.


By applying an antiseptic dressing to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before Inflammation sets in, they may be
healed without maturaion and in about
one third the time required by the old
treatment. This is the greatest discov-
cry and triumph OF modern surg ry.
Cha nj berlains Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an antis' ptic and
when applied to such injuries, causes
them to heal very quickly 1t also allay g
the pain and soreness and prevents any
danger OF blood poisoning. Keep a
bottle OF Pain Balm in your home and 1t
will save you time and :money, not to
mention the inconvenience and suffering
such injuries entail. For sale by Ritter
