DUBOIS OFFER
FOR HARMONY
Boilers Decline to Compromise or
Agree to Anti-MOrmon Plank

BOISE, Idaho, July 31.-Sunday
the democratic hosts from southern
Idaho will move on Wallace, where
the state nominating convention is to
be held. A special train will be re-
CURED to carry those who will not
associate with the "Mormons" and
another for those who are unalterably
opposed to Fred i. Dubois and his
issue All oyertures for harmony on
the part of the followers of Dubois
have been of no avail and now the
followers of the former senator pro-
pose to gust the opposing faction
from the convention, on the ground
that they bolted the Twin Falls CON
vention, /eld to select delegates to
Denver.
The dght is to be made especially
upon the convention chosen delega-
ton from Ada county, which will pre-
clude I from any participation in the
preliminary skirmishes for control.
Monday NJ H. Clark, personal rep
reseF native of Senator Dubois, sub
mitte I'd to John F. Nugent, chairman
of t be Ada county delegation, peace
prof. osal, the principal provisions of
which were that the Nugent-Perky
wing allow an anti Mormon plank in
the state platform no broader than
ghe state constitution, Dubois in turn
not to ask the Endorsement of the con-
Fention for United States senator and
u concede the presidential electors
to the opposition.
/ The Ada county delegation declin-
ed to accept, whereupon Mr.. Clark
announced: I'VE have gone the
limit for harmony and now there will
be no harmony"
A massmeeting of the followers of
Dubois was held and County Chair
man WOODBURY. was authorized to
appoint 81 delegates to Wallace to
take the place of those boiling the
party convention at Twin Falls The
Dubois leaders claim they have forced
the opposition to show its hand in
revealing that it is opposed to ineor-
porating a provision of the state CON
stitution in the state platform.
