Standpoint Can Get It

The article in the HERALD last
week advocating Standpoint, the
capitol of Bonner county, for one
of the convention cities, has met
with warm response wherever
discussed. The people of Sand
point are alive to their opportuni-
ty, and all Bonner county will rem
der them every support in their
power. The more we think of it
the move convinced we become
that Standpoint is the ideal city for
state convention. The aspirants
for political honors will all get a
fair deal at Standpoint so far as the
city itself is concerned. We are
satisfied that. delegates from all
over the state would be delighted
to have one of the conventions
held at Standpoint this year Get
in and drill for Standpoint for the
state convention.
The state committee will be
called together soon and Standpoint
should be on hand to press her
claims. If our neighbor can Sc
cure the convention, it will be one
of the best advertisements that
place ever had and the entire
county of Bonner will share in the
benefits. Let's take it.

TRAGIC DEATH OF CHILD.
Killed by Car on Way Home With
Good News From School.

NEW YORK, March 6.-Filled with
happiness because she had been graded
100 per cent in all her studies yesterday,
eight-year-od Jennie Drelich ran from
her classroom in public school in 10Sth
street to carry the good news to her
mother. She was skipping ioyfully across
I'd avenue at Tooth street on the way
to her home. In her excitement she
failed to notice an approaching south
bound trolley car. and while 100 persons
looked on she was caught beneath the
wheels of the vehicle and crushed TO
death in few seconds.
Immediately fifty of her little play
mates who were running down the ave-
nue. sent up screams of horror and a
crowd of 400 men gathered and threat
ened to lynch Edward Mangan. the mo-
torman. The cries for vengeance alarmed
the motorman and. in fear Of his life, he
jumped from his car, forgot the mangled
child and darted in run down I'd avenue
The thrOng then turned its attention to
William Bark. the conductor, and, fear
ing that they would carry out their
threats. Policeman Gleason sent for the
reserves. With drawn clubs they at first
scattered the crowd but suddenly really
ing that the child was still pinioned be-
meath the wheels of the car they sum-
moned every one in the neighborhood to
their shoulders against the side of the car
and tipped 1t over against an IL" pillar
Meantime DR.. Healy had arrived in an
ambulance from the Harlem Hospital
but he found the child had long been
dead
