OAKLAND, Cal, May 27.-Three
large dwelling houses built by Jas.
L. Gallagher, the prosecutions star
witness in the bribery graft cases,
at Perkins and Belmont streets. this
city, were wrecked by dynamite last
night shortly before midnight.
The houses were not yet occu-
pied.
A heavy charge Of dynamite plac-
ed in the kitchen of the largest Of
the three houses threw the building
of the foundations and almost
completely wrecked it.
The houses we're shattered, while
many windows in the neighborhood
were broken by the shock.
John Rollins, watchman en-
ployed by the contractor building
the houses for Gallagher. was sit

houses at the time and was thrown
to the ground. He stated to Detec-

the three buildings shortly before
the explosion occurred.

A Terrible Accident

The following is taken from an
Albion Washington, paper. Mr..
and Mrs. Dendurent, referred to,
formerly resided at Port Hill, and
their friends will deeply sympa-
thize with them in their great mis-
fortune.
The saddest accident which ever
happened in Albion occurred on
Tuesday of this week. The victim
of the terrible affair was the 5 year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. T. Den
durent.
The little fellow fell into tub
Of boiling water and was 80 serious
ly burned that he died on Wednes-
day night at 1915.
Mr.. Dendurant, proprietor OF
the Albion Hotel and also of the
barber shop, took tub of water
from the tank which supplies the
bath in the barber shop, and start
ed to take it to the hotel across the
street. He sat it down on the edge
of the porch and turned to take a
water pail to his wife who still re-
manned in the kitchen. In that
interval the little boy walked onto
the porch, and in some way fell
backward into the boiling water
His head struck the edge of the
tub thus preventing it from going
into the water, but nearly the en-.
tire body was burned and the cloth,
ing being saturated with the boil
ing water, held the heat, so that by
the time they were removed mucf
OF the skin and in some places tn,
flesh came off. The wounds were
dressed Immediately by DR.. Howell
and council came from Pullman il
the afternoon.
All that kind friends and skill
could do was accomplished but t.
no purpose other than that thos'
who labored feel that they die
their best for the innocent sufferer
The family have the sympathy
of the entire community in thi
sad hour.

ALL REPUBLICAN
That is the Political Outlook IN
the County State and
Nation.

The outlook for Republican sue
cess this fall is exceedingly bright.
In fact it looks like cinche-and
this is true in the county, state
and nation.
The nomination of Taft and
Sherman is the strongest that
could be made. Taft has been tried
in important places and has been a
success in every position he ever
held. He is experienced in state
craft and the foreign missions upon
which he was sent by Mckinley
and Roosevelt have given him USE
full fund of knowledge in world
politics. He is safe and conserva-
tive, while thoroughly committed to
the reforms of Roosevelt.
Bryan is without doubt a we'll
meaning man, but visionary and
changable. He is in full retreat
on some of his hobbies, while adj
vancing others fully as visionary.
He has discarded free silver and
government ownership of railroads ,,
but is still very much of free
trader, and to this end wants free
lumber, free trade in one of the
leading products of Idaho. His
radical tendencies and radical plat
form. if put into effect, would pre-
cipitate panic, stifie industry,
throw labor out of employment,
bankrupt the country, and bring
on conditions similar to that which
the country suffered under the last
Cleveland administration.
These facts are 30 clear that there
is absolutely no doubt OF the cleo
ton of Taft and Sherman.
In Idaho fortune seems to smile
upon the Republicans this year
The Democrats are rent in twain by
factional disturbances, The two
contending factions are very nearly
equally divided, with the Dubois
ties likely to come out on top
The control now hangs in the bal

ance, with three counties yet to
hold primaries which will decide
whether the recent acquisitions to
the Democrats from the Populst,
Silver Republican and Socialist
parties shall control, or whether
! the old-fashioned Democrats shall
dominate in the councils.
Dubois won and lost at Denver.
His delegates were seated, but the
convention cut out the anti-Mof-
mon plank in the platform. This
leaves the fight still on in Idaho,
to be fought to finish at Wallace,
and the losing faction ready to
knife the other to a fare-you-well
But aside from the troubles Of
the Democracy, Idaho shows no
symptoms of putting itself out of
tune with the nation.
In Bonner County every man on
! the Republican ticket should be
elected if wisdom governs
the party at the primaries and the
convention. But in local politics
it is quite easy to make mistake.
We saw this two years ago when
We were all part of old Kootenai
and majority of 1900 votes was
wiped out. Conditions then were
not fraction as bad as represented,
but the people thought there was
sufficient ground, and voted accord
ingly. The Republicans have an
opportunity to avoid all this in the
campaign of 1908. 1t can be done
by putting up a clean ticket cam
posed of men who have the conf
dence of the voter. That the Repub-
licans of Bonner County will make
no mistake int his respect is our be-
lief and our hope for victory all
along the line.
The ticket that the HERALD
desires to see nominated is one
composed of men of integrity
and that will further unite the fact
ions of the party, if factions there
be.

Home Team Hold track Team
Of Standpoint.

Bandelin's Standpoint Tigers
were surprised bunch when they
came up against the Boomers Ferry
Singers, last Sunday. They
thought when they went into the
park that there would be nothing
to it, but after six innings In which
neither side made a score, there
was a worried expression upon
their features, especially the Cap
tain, who was already disfgured
with a black eye in practice work
before the game. However, in the
7th inning, the Bonner boys made
two costly plays that gave Sand
point three scores. The pitcher
sent up wild ball, and the first
baseman made wild throw. The
Tigers took three scores on this
little performance.
Below will be found the record Of
the game, in which it will be seen
that Bonners Ferry played mighty
good ball, with the exceptions
noted. The Bonner boys have
improved very much, deserve

Cave---Garrison

A very happy wedding took plact
in Bonners Ferry last Wednesday
in which Miss Hazel Cave and
Paul c. Garrison were united in the
bonds of wedlock.
The ceremony was performed al
the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Edison S. Cave, Rev
E. r. Henderson officiating. Only
the relatives of the bride and few
intimate friends were present.
Mr.. Garrison is timber buyer
and cruiser for the Rogers lumber
syndicate of Minneapolis, and
Miss Cave is the youngest daua hter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Edison S. Cave, a
well-known and respected family
of this place.
The bride and groom left shortly
after the ceremony for Portland
where Mr.. Gairison's people reside
A large number of friends accom-
panied them to the train, and there
was something doing in the rice
business and old shoe line. But
probably the worst prank was to
circulate through the car a multi
tude of little printed slips upon
which was catchy little poem
apprising everyone that Paul and
Hazel were newly married couple.
These slips were scattered through
the car, posted on their grips, and
and pinned on their clothing.
AL joined in wishing them much
Joy, in which the HERALD joins.

 and Governor Smith urged the voters of the State to vote the straight Dena- ocratic ticket saying that vote for any other candidae was a vote thrown away.
 Governor Smith began his speech by saying that Mir. Bryan was renoml- mated by the plain American people who know his purity of purpose and who have faith In his ability.
