The accident happened about
dusk and the party was nine miles
or more from the nearest ranch.
Mrs. Fischer and Miss Taylor were
so shocked and excited by the trag-
edy that they were at loss to know
what TO do for some time. Finally
II was decided that Mrs. Escher
should remain with the body Of her
husband while Miss Taylor went
for help. The horses were un-
hitched and Miss Taylor rode one
of them bareback TO the ranch to
summon aid. It was several hours
before assistance arrived and during
that time the bcreaved wife stood
guard over the body of her husband
IN lonely place, with the coyotes
bowling about her, being attracted
there by the scent Of blood.
The body was taken to the farm
house that night and The next day
it was conveyed TO st. Anthony,
the nearest railroad point, and from
there to Pocatello, where the funeral
was held last Sunday.

The Republican State Central
Committee has billed Senator w.
B. Hepburn to speak in Montpelier
Saturday night, September 10.
The senator is making tour of the
Southern part of the state before
going North aud his address at
Montpelier is the only one that Will
be given in Bear Lake county.
Senator Hey burn is perhaps the
most forceful speaker that will ad-
dress the people on the campaign
issues, and his meeting bere should
be largely attended. HIS master
full presentation OF the issues is an
education to those who hear him.
Senator Hepburn believes that
the campaign Of political party
shonld be campaign of education.
II has always been his contention
that campaign speakers should pre-
sent their subjects in a manner that
is explanatory more than argument
ative. He believes that If the vot-
ers are made TO understand the issues
clearly they are too intelligent to
choose the wrong side of the ques
tion. No man in the party in this
state is more eminently qualified
to present the issues Of the campaign
than Senator Hepburn. A large
part Of the great influence he has in
the United States senate is due tC
the fact that he Is SO thoroughly

was no slate except that made by
the delegates, and their preference
of Hamer to French, was not IN the
light of rejection of the work ac-
complished by the present repre-
sentative, for he made a splendid
record. As Young man, he has
been signally honored by three
elections. The present candidate
is not unknown, and his qualii-
cations have been more than once
demonstrated. Col. Hamer has
proven himself soldier with ability
TO command, and an orator who
pleases and holds the attention of
his audiences. He also possesses
the principles of statesmanship
which, when given the opportunity
to develop, will more than meet the
requirements of a state which IS
forging ahead into the foremost
ranks of the American sisterhood.

the continuance of Judge Ailshie
