ing the sad and sudden death
ofMrs. L. l.. Gerard which do
great injustice to the family and
Mrs. Clark who was called in,
Marion correspondent who is
familiar with the circumstances
hands us the following which
we submit to the careful consid-
Grafton of those who have been
inclined to offer criticism:
Mrs. l., L. Gerard died at
$40 p. M, Sept. 9th of hemor-

TO THE PEOPLE OF IDAHO.
The Mormon Views ON Govern
ment.

In view of the fact that the
Mormon people are frequently
charged with disloyalty and
with being unpatriotic, we pre-
sent today to the people of the
state excerpts from the 134th
section of the Doctrine and Cove
nants which the Prophet ] Joseph
Smith gave to the world in the
year 1885, and to which prin-
ciples the Latter Day Saints
have always subscribed. A care
ful perusal of the same will con-
vince any honest Investigator
that no higher conception of
government could maintain,
nor could any people entertain
nobler or higher views on ones
relation to the government under
which he lives. We commend to
all citizens a careful perusal OF
this declaration of principles.

A SPLENDID TICKET.

The story of the Republican
convention is told in few words:
"We came, we saw, we con-
quored" The east end of the
county stood Loyalty together
played a tsquare deal, and got
just what they wanted. The
fellows on the tract were abso-
lutely sure that they had con-
troll over the convention but
they found their mistake. In
the words OF the Twin Falls
News "The Mormons can fight
and they can play politics. That
fact must be potent to the Twin
Falls delegation" At any rate
1.-THE wise men Of the east tri-
umphed over the wild men of the
west" and they put up a strong
ticket one that is highly repre-
sentative and a sure winner. 1t

The following excerpt taken
from the Democratic platform of
Bingha m county speaks in no
uncertain tones of the ttitude
of people against the notorious
villifer and Mormon Halter
Fred I. Dubois:-
We are unquali6edly opposed
to the reelection Of Senator
Fred /. Dubois, and pledge our
candidates to the legislature, in
the event of their election, not
under any circumstances to vote
for his election, but lat all times
to support for United States
senator any true and loyal Dem
ocrat and in justification of our
alton we have to say:
"First-That by declaration of
Senator Dubois, publicly and re-
peatedly made, he himself is as
good a Republican as he ever
was.
"Second-Because we believe
his declarations IN this respect
are true,
"Third-Because his selfish and
unpatriotic leadership has forced
many true Democrats out of the
party and created dessension and
disgust within its ranks.

indicted in Chicago on 6,426 different
counts for accepting rebates on oil il
found guilty, and the proper fines are
imposed, this thieying monopoly will
have to turn over to the government
Isl million dollars. But it is a safe
bet Of five dollars TO a pewter nickel
that the company will be let off with
very small fine, possibly 5000, or
an admOnition to be good
But who gave these rebates? The
railroads.
Is it against the law to give rebates &?
Yes.
DO the railroads know that it is
against the law? Yes.
Do the railroads show any respect
for the law? No.
Well, what is the remedy?
