Accident at Idaho Gem Mine.

Manager B. F. Woodward, of the Idaho
Gem Mine, while loading buckets at the
bottom of the shaft last Wednesday,
the 18th, he was struck on the head
with the bucket and knocked insensible.
His head was quite badly cut but on
closer examination it was found to be
only scalp wound. The accident was
caused by Mr.. Woodward s son, Sanford,
who was running the whim, missing
the mark on the cable and letting the
bucket down too far.

CAAF|N WON'T
COMPROMISE
WANTS STRAIGHT PROHIBl-
TON AND WILL GIVE NATION
EXAMPLE BY CLEANING OUT
SALOONS AT CAPITAL.

Masonic temple WIS crowded last
night to hear Eugene w. Chain,
prohibition candidate for president.
In the audience ware many ladies,
who seemed to vie with the men in
their approval of the points made
by the speaker. Mr.. Chain is not
a polished orator In the sense gen.
orally understood, his style being
clear, forcible presentation of his
subject.
In his opening remarks Mr..
Chain spoke of the growing spirit
of political independence and the
breaking asunder @: party ties that
had bound men in the past. People
today are more given to the discus
sion of economic and moral ques-
tons than ever before, he said.
Taking up the question of local
option, Mr.. Chain said the majority
had no right to force moral wrong
on a minority. He likened the
local optionists to the men who adj
vocated compromise on the slave
question. Compromise in slavery
days, he said, was found to be
wholly unsatisfactory, likewise
compromise on the liquor question
today only retards the proper solu-
ton of the question, which is COM
ing soon in a national prohibition
law.
He advocated an amendment to
the United States constitution for
bidding the manufacture, sale, i'm
portation or expectation of intoxi-
eating liquors as the only proper
and right solution of the liquor
question. State prohibition has
been tried, he said, but it does not
prohibit. He seemed to think that
a prohibition law without prohibit
ton officers to enforce it will never
succeed. as men who are not in
sympathy with a moral question
can never take the interest in il
that men do who believe in it.
Hence he thought it was necessary
to have the prohibition party in
power to make prohibitiona sue
cess.
Mr.. Chain stated that if he were
elected president the first thing he
would do would be to clean out the
saloons in the District of Columbia,
particularly the one that fiourishes
in the basement of the national
capitol building.
