IOWA BOY A VICTIM.
Earl Boegs, Killed on Cruiser Ten
nessee, Supposed to Be From Vim

Vinton. June S.-Earl Boggs, given
as the name of onefof the young men
killed by the explosion of a. steam pipe
on the battleship Tennessee last week
off the coast of California, is believed
to be none other than a young man
who formerly resided in this city and
also at Waterloo. His parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Will Boggs, now live in this city.
When the first reports of the acct
dent were read the name in connec-
ton with remembrance of the row.
ing disposition of the lad led to the
first inquiries being made as to the
identity Of the unfortunate man. It
is now believed past controversy that
the Earl Boggs referred to is none
other than the Vinton boy. A gem
eral statement made in regard to
young Boggs is to the effect that che
had been everywhere and had seen
everything" Further inquiries are
being sent out to establish beyond
doubt whether the dead man was the
son Of the Vinton couple.

A CORRECTION.

We insert the following squib from
our local contempory and also one
bearing on the same matter which We
find in the Springfield Republican,
the leading independent paper In the
east. We do not print the two squibs
together because we consider the two
papers in the same class but because
We think the Journal needs little
light from the east on subject on
which it seems to have ideas that are
not exactly up-to-date:
"Since 1t has been admitted that
the g. O p. pays its star spellbinders
five hundred dollars a night, an un'
pleasant suspicion is aroused whenever
q prominent democrat announces his
conversion TO the Taft ticket and is
place d on the list OF speakers"
THE decision Of the republican ma.
tional committee not TO pay the re-
publican stump speakers, beyond
their travelling expenses outside their
own states, Is a blow at a well.estab-
lished A merican industry. For years,
in pre- sidential campaigns. there have
been fat fees for the spellbinders'
and there have been popular orators,
whose services. we're valued as high as
$500 a speech. The enemy may say
that the disappearance OF the paid
republican speaker this year Is due TO
lean picking by the funds collectors,
but Chairman Hitchcock assures US
that the reform has come because OF
the moral principle involved. This
is most gratifying, and many Will be
convinced that the republican party
Is once more becoming the party OF
moral ideas. II. now we could have
publicity for campaign funds, before
election, the situation would be In.

on the night OF November Eat Youngs-

Of the party was opened at that place
with Gov. Hughes as the principal
speaker add II has been deemed fitting
that the national candidate should
make his closing address at that place.
The announcement was regarded as
interesting because Of its indicate ion
that the candidate will be occupied
actively right up to the eve Of the na.
tional election. After the Youngs.

Cousin Jesse's Reception

A frosty reception was rendered
Jesse W. knight, the democratic
nominee for governor, Thursday even
ing. He was scheduled to deliver an
address at the Nibley Hall, but owing
to the slimness Of the crowd the pro-
ject was abandoned. Jesse and the
democrats present adjourned to the
Commercial club rooms and listene d
to a little spiel.
The enthusiasm which was thought
to have been aroused In this county
by holding the State Democratic con-
vention here did not materialize.
From present indications, poor old
democracy Is dead In Cache county.
Even the name OF Jesse Knight does
not bring about a resurrection.

to his peculiar style of characterize
ton, and is full of the rich charm
of quiet yet forceful situations.
There is nothing forced about his
work. 1t is natural, intelligent and
