Six Children Perish in Fire.

Palouse.-Whlle their mothers at
tended a theater six small children
We're roasted alive and two others
so horribly burned that one will
probably die, in fire that DESTROYED
the farmhouse of H. w Schultz, near
this city last week. The little vic
Tins of the awful tragedy are the
four daughters of Mrs. w. w. Fix
and the son and daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Schultz. The parents were all
absent from the farm at the time of
the tragedy, the mothers, who are
sisters, being at a theater in this
city, and Schultz and Fix on a neigh
boris farm.
Little 11-year-old Rose Schultz
proved herself heroine and at the
same time probably gave her life to
save her smaller sisters and cousins.
She rushed into the burning build
ing to rescue them and sustained in
juries from which she will probably
die.
The six little corpses were brought
to an undertaking establishment
here, and the wounded children are
in a local hospital The charred
corpses bear no resemblance to hui
man beings, so completely were the
children cremated.
The cause of the fire is unknown,
though it is generally believed that
one of the children, in playing about
the stove must have started 1t.

1000 SACKS OF WHEAT BURNED.

Colfax, Wash, Aug. 21.-Fire on
the Charles Kessler farm. in Pleasant
Valley, yesterday, in addition to de-
stroying the threshing machine of
Allen Fortune, burned about 600 sacks
of threshed wheat owned by Mr.. Kess-
Ter. and also a stack estimated TO con-
tain about 400 sacks more. The crop
was insured.
J. M. East, "a farmer living four
miles west of Colfax, lost $50 sacks of
threshed wheat Wednesday in fire,
the origin of which is a mystery. The
threshing had been completed and the
outfit moved from the setting several
hours prior to the fire, and the ash
heap had been thoroughly drenched
with water before the crew left the
scene.
Three men in a vehicle passed
through the field near the setting a
few minutes before the fire was dis
covered, but they claim that none of
them was smoking, and as they had
no firearms with them the theory of a
hunters fire is not entertained. The
most generally accepted explanation Of
the origin of the blaze is that some
matches may have been dropped around
the setting and ignited by field mice
or from the heat. The grain was
partly insured.

Negro Slashes Officer.

Spokane.-After attacking Mrs.
Jane Lowe, alias Jones, a white
woman, Charles Lewis, a colored en-
ploye Of carnival company showing
here, murderously assaulted Officer
q. d. Bradbury with a knife, hack
ing him about the neck, face and
shoulders
The attack upon the woman is said
to have occurred last week in a
clearinghouse near Market street and
Riverside avenue The negro's act
is said to have been witnessed by a
little daughter Of the landlady. She
managed to escape from his grip and
ran into a rooming-house near by
As Officer Bradbury was passing
her window, Mrs. Lowe called him
in and related to him the story Of
the attack by the negro. While the
officer was advising her as to what
action to take, Lewis, the negro,
opened the door and asked him to
come into the hallway, as he wished
to speak to him.
As Bradbury stepped outside the
room, Lewis swung on him, stabbing
him in the left shoulder, at the same
time exclaiming, "Tll kill you" Be-
fore the officer could get his club the
negro had cut him several times
about the neck and chin. Bradbury
severely pounded the negro with his
club before he was able to subdue
him. A shower of rocks was rained
upon the special officer by other ne
groes in a nearby clearinghouse.

DEMOCRATS WILL JOIN
IN BIG RABBIT DRIVE
Hundreds Will Flock to Antelope VAL
ley Saturday to Witness Slaugh-
ter of CottontaiIs and to
Talk Politics

The big rabbit drive and barbecue to
be held Saturday will bring hundreds
of visitors to the Antelope valley, many
of whom will be Democrats composing
the party which will go from here by
special train.
All of the men will carry sacks, hav-
ing promised to furnish rabbit to all
their Los Angeles friends.
There has been no big rabbit drive in
the valley since back in 1888, when over
5000 bunnies were killed.
The creatures are causing havoc in
the grain fields and death sentence has
been pronounced on them by the
ranchers.
A long corral of wire netting and
pickets set into the ground will be the
death trap. This forms a barrier back
of a big field of alfalfa.
Men and boys on foot and horseback
will drive the game over a wide terri
tory toward the corral, where they will
be killed with clubs or shot il hunters
care to use lead.
The cotton tails" win be taken away
for meals, but the jack rabbits will
probably remain in heaps.
A special rate has been made for tho
trip, and politicians can arrange with
Tony Schwamm for seats in the special
cars.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-13

the Smith column as of yore when
the votes are counted November 3,
and that too, by decisive majority"
Will Hattich, editor and proprietor
of the Prospector, is another of those
old Tombstone residents who ridiculed
the Cameron pretentions. There Is
nothing doing for Cameron in this
neck of the woods. Cameron lacks eX-
perience and ability for the position,
and on the other hand Mark Smith
has always taken care of Arizona's in
terests in Washington in a manner
highly creditable to his ability, and
the efforts of the Cameron men are
only in the interest of office. 1t is an
effort to put a small man in big
place. No sir, Mark Smith will not
only be returned to congress, but by
an unprecedented majority. Cochise
county this time will give Mark Smith
a majority that will cause other coun-
ties to sit up and take due notice, that
in the new state of Arizona she Will
be a factor that will have to be consid-
cred. Our county is prosperous and
developing rapidly, our citizens con-
tented with conditions as existing and
we are not considering any possible
change in our delegate to congress"
Betting All One Way
The sentiments as expressed above
are those of large majority of the
people of Tombstone. While Lew Col
Inns has succeeded in creating q lot
of mirth and noise in Tombstone, his
efforts in the vote getting line have
been exceedingly meager. The thought
full, conservative citizens of this town
are not on the streets shouting for
political candidates, but when ap-
preached as to whom is their choice
for delegate to congress, the universal
answer is mark Smith, of course"
In other words the noise and turmoil
Is for Cameron, while the votes are
nearly all for Smith.
Bill C1eary spoke here last night and
his entire discourse, if it might be
dignified by such a title, was Will
fication of Mark Smith and the Demo-
cratic county ticket clearly showing
why that gentleman is in the field.
Cleary, however, has absolutely no
following here and his effort to injure
Smith has been nil.
When the votes OF Cochise county
have been counted, you can rely upon
it the majority for Mark Smith will
be such an answer to the slanderers
of his good name that these men will
never more be tolerated in this, the
greatest mineral belt in North Amer
lea.
A big wager was made here yes
terday, names of parties thereto being
withheld, that Mark Smith would carry
Cochise county by more than 750 ma
jority. The money was posted with
Mayor Wentworth. There is more
money here to bet that Cochise county
will give Mark Smith more than 800.

M'LACHLAN SHES
AT CANNON ISSUE
CONGRESSMAN REFUSES TO
COMMIT HIMSELF
aooEsN,T KNOW WHETHER HE
WILL VOTE FOR SPEAKER
Republican Representative from This
District Avoids Discussion of His
Future Relations with
"UncIe Joe"

Question: "Mr. McLachlan, If
you are reelected to congress
will you vote for Joseph Cannon
for speaker?"
Answer: I'm sure | can't tell
at present. There will be plenty
of time after election to decide
that"
Thus did Representative James
McLachlan dodge the vital
question put to him yesterday by
a reporter.
VIII "Uncle Joe" Cannon be re-
elected speaker if by any chance he
manages to get to congress? one of
mis- best friends in Los Angeles. cotssasss5-
who has-s+ord -C10se to him for sew
eral session and holds an important
place on one of the most important
congressional committees, is Mr.. Nc
Lachlan, and the latter apparently
has no desire to commit himself.
Republicans all over the country are
very non-committal about Uncle
joe" They size him up as sinking
ship. Early in the campaign 1t was
rumored that Speaker Cannon would
stump the country. Now they do not
even know whether he will get out OF
his own district with a safe skin on
November 3-that Is, his personal
friends don't know.
I'm sure [ can't tell" said Con-
gresham McLachlan when asked
whether he or any other Republican
congressman would vote for Cannon
for speaker II by chance reelected
next MONTH, Mr.. McLachlan pre-
ferred to take the attitude that after
election there would be time enough
for Republican congressman, II sue
cessful, to receive orders from head
quarters what to do regarding the
continuation of Cannon-lf he should
happen to win again.
II would much rather not discuss
the question" said Congressman Nc
Lachlan.
McLachIan Doesn't Know"
"But will Cannon be re-electedT"
asked the reporter.
''T'm sure l don't know" said the
Won't his own district stand by
him?"
1T is hard to tell whether he will
be reelected or not. You know they
defeated him once. The union labor
people fought him bitterly and were
strong enough to keep him from GO
Ing DdCk W GOi6iCSss -
Gompers on his back, and in addition
the Methodist church people are work
ing against him.
"The Methodists blame him because
he did not take that temperance Din
away from the committee. Why don't
they attack the members of the COM
mittee instead? They are to blame
rather than Cannon, who did not have
the authority to do what they asked.
''Mr. Cannon. like every speaker we
have ever had, has been blamed Tor
n lot of things which should not be
unloaded upon him. He is a great
man. No weakling is ever made
speaker of the house.
but will you Republicans vote to
make him speaker again If the OPP
portunity offers?
'I could not say as to that said
Mr.. McLachlan.

JUD RUSH GIVEN
GREAT OVATION
EL MONTE WELCOMES HOME
FORMER CITIZEN
ONCE DELIVERY BOY, NOW RUN
MING FOR CONGRESS
Democratic Nominee Cheered by His
Fellow Townsmen-t4is First
Political Speech
Recalled

The town of Eel Monte was the center
of political life in the San Gabriel val
ley last night and nearly went wild
over the Homecoming of Jud r. Rush,
Democratic candidate for congress in
the Seventh district. El Monte was
once the home of Jud Rush, when he
was a round-faced boy and drove the
butchers wagon. All the old-timers
throughout the valley know him, and
they turned out EN- nlasse last night
and gave him the biggest meeting of
the campaign thus far.
1t was while he was living in Ell
Monte that Rush began the study of
law, and there he tried his first case
and made his first political speech.
Many of the people who attended the
meeting last night remember that meet
ing and how young Rush paved the air
and made the wellxin ring for two solid
hours. They remember, too, that at the
end of the speech an old settler got
right up in meeting and prophesied that
Rush would go to congress sometime,
and they believe now that the prophesy
is about to come true.
Last nights meeting was under the
auspices of the El Monte Bryan club,
and NJ. r. Quinn, president of the club.
was chairman of the meeting, while E.
C. Parish, who came to Ell Monte In
1854 was one of the vice presidents
Caves hall was crowded to the limit,
delegations coming from Puente, Mon
rovia, Savannah, San Gabriel, Walnut
Center and other towns. There was
brass band, q cannon, which was
touched off at frequent intervals, and
great crowd of enthusiastic citizens.
Rush Greatly Moved
Rush was SO overcome by the great
ovation that he almost forgot politics
- hi Itt,,a 20, in
iscences. But he found time to talk on
the situation at San Pedro harbor and
what can be done In congress for that
great public enterprise, and what hasn't
been done. Also he talked about freight
rates on fruit shipments to the east
and how these may be lowered without
hurting anybody but the railroad mag
mates, and how something can be done
in the way OF more appropriate tions for
federal buildings in Southern California.
Rush was elected a justice of the
peace of Eel Monte township twenty
years ago after he had studied law be-
tween times and when he wasn't wrap
ping up packages of meat or Skinning
a steer and the Ell Monte people con-
slider him their greatest product. They
are proud of him, and they are so sure
that he is going to be elected to con-
gress that it makes them angry for
anyone to express even the shadow of
a doubt. Last night the big audience
listened to every word of the speaker
with the greatest interest. and fire.
quently they Interrupted the. speech to
thunder their applause.
The speaker didn't waste any time
villifying anybody or pointing out any
body's shortcomings, but devoted that
portion of the speech given to politics
to telling what can be done for the peo-
pie of Southern California by a live
and energetic man, and to what he pro-
poses to do in the matter if the people
of Los Angeles county honor him with
the toga.

BRYAN'S GAINS ALARM
REPUBLICAN LEADERS
Chairman Teller Comes to Los An-
geles to Learn Reason for Apathy
Here-Goes North with
DoIIiver

Alarmed by the reports of a Bryan
landslide in the south, Chairman P. S.
Teller of the state Republican commit
tee was in conference all day yesterday
with Los Angeles county leaders to see
for what reason the Republicans de-
layed their active work till mid-October,
leaving the Democrats to get all the
early redfire and enthusiasm.
The local leaders plainly told Chair
man Teller that the national commitrec
had sent no spellbinders here, and
funds were not specially large this year.
The chairman went north with nt3~
tor Dolliver to tell his colleagues on
the committee how the Los Angeles
workers feel about it all.
