DUBOIS AND HIS CAMPAIGN"

DUBOIS AND HIS CHAMPAIGN"
In it's issue of August 10, the
Portland Oregonian contained an ed
itorial on the political situation in
Idaho that is worthy of the attention
of the voters of Idaho. Under the
caption, Dubois and His Campaign"
the Oregonian says:
The campaign which Dubois is
making in Idaho is the desperate ex-
pedient of a bankrupt political adj
venturer, in search of an issue" for
a present emergency. He has been
everything by turns and nothing
long. No longer having credit with
the Republican party, he swung,
through Populism and the silver lun-
acy. into the Democratic party
Gone broke" there also. he now sets
up the pretense that the few Nor
mons in Idaho are peril to that
proud State; and of course he Is the
only man who can be Idaho's rescuer
and deliverer.
Nothing could be more pitiful than
the career of such a politician. All
the great principles of the Demo-
cratic party" which Dubois was wont
to laud so much. have passed into
utter and irreclaimable bankruptcy.
Should Dubois again so through Ida
no bawling for silver, as he did few
years ago, when he was proclaiming
his free-coinage nostrum as the only
hope of salvation for the country, he
would make himself utterly ridicu-
Ions. People would laugh him off
the stump. He knows 1t. So he in
vents something different. He is
now running a tilt against expiring
Mormonism--ende to make

AMERICAN MINERS

Possibly the most terribly burned
men and with all not fatally %.
were brought to this city Saturday
and taken TO the Miners hospital at
Fairmont for treatment. They
were George Wilmuth, single. lab

William Reed, married, Of SImp-
son, miner.
The men are most horribly burn
cd about the head, neck and breast.
Wilmuth is perhaps the worst IN
jured, but received more medical at
tcntion and does not present such a
horrible appearance. i L will prob

fractured ribs.
Reeds face and neck are burned
to a crisp almost and his blaGkchtd
face bears but very litth usemb-
lance to that Of a human. He too
may lose both eyes but it is sad that
last night he could distinguish a
light family.
Reed i employed as a miner in
the Simpson mines Of the New York
Coal company, and striking what is
known as a clay vein, required as
sistance. Wilmuth, who il employ
ed as a laborer on the outside, was
sent in to help him.
The men prepared two shots and
each touched one Off, then retired to

TO
VICTORY MARCHING

The political situation in the
city is quiet. All indications point
to an overwhelming victory for the
Republican candidates for mayor and
other city officials. Coffman at the
head of the ticket and Scott for
chief-of-police is a strong connina-
tion. The popularity of the other
hold-over officials is unquestioued.
Camden Sommers will stay in the
race, the rest Of his ticket hcmg
similar to The Republican ticket.
1t is said that a strong effort was
made to get Mr.. Garrett to come off
the Prohibition ticket aud throw
his strength to some Of thc local
politicians, but he declined to have
the Prohibition cause associated
with any such movement. and will
stay in the race to the end.
