participant in the deal.
The effort as made by the Hamer
people to get together the strongest
possible ticket and only candidates
were asked to come into the CON-
bination who could deliver their
strength. Lieutenant Governor Bur-
rell was offered place in the win-
ming combination and some effort
was made to induce him to go into
the caucus. Mr.. Burrell felt, how.
ever that the convention of Bear
Lake county had expressed itself
so plainly upon the candidacy of
certain men who were not on the
Hamer slate that he could not
consistently join the movement.
The only contest of the eonven.
ton was upon the candidacy of Mr.
French, for it was evident when b,
was defeated that the combination
would win all the way down th'
line. The vanquished hoped tt
make at least one break in the slat,

Great Destroyers.

Bids for the construction OF 10 tor
pedo boat destroyers, at least four
knots faster than the Lusitania and
equipped with apparatus for burning
oil as well as coal, and which are to
be the largest ever built for the Amer
lean navy, were Tuesday opened.
These vessels are TO cost 100000 each
and for every knot lost on any OF their
trial trips under the contract speed
the builders will have to forfeit $780,
900 of the contract price TO the gov
eminent.
Plans and specifications are being
kept secret by the navy department,
and were submitted in confidence to
the bidders.
IL is known, however. that vessels
must have a trial displacement of at
least 742 tons, and must attain max
imum speed of 20 knots an hour. a
speed that will make them among the
fastest war craft ever constructed in
this or any other country.

cused of being its father, and moving
the lawyers and audience to sympathy
with her pitiful but bravely told story

law her wretched past in all its naked
ness and in graphic detail related the
incidents of the night OF August s.
when her month-old infant struggled
out its tiny life in the waters of Sagi-
nav river.
Over the objections of the attorneys,
she branded the mark OF Cain upon
another, declaring near the close OF
her recital. which told OF committing
the child TO the care of Duffy, 81 be-
lieVe that he went to the river and
drowned my baby"
Not once did she falter, not once
was she tripped. not once did she con-
tradict herself. In the trying ordeal
on the stand. she chung to her story
that on the night of the tragedy she
committed her infant to Duffy on his
assurance that he had secured a home
for It,
And we agreed when we parted
that night" she testified, in voice
shaking with emotion, that we would
go to the house together the next
Sunday and see our baby"
The witness cried softly as she told
OF her love for the boy and her hope
he would grow to manhood.
