DEATH AND DESTRUCTION
CONTINUED From Fourth Pagel

and industrial activity that has
occurred in this valley. To save
the timber it is necessary that it be
removed within two years. time.
The large companies are planning
to save their holdings. The result
will be work for everybody in this
section and many hundreds more
of men. Timber that would not
have been cut in ten years or more
will come under the ak.
After the timber, what? The
general clearing of the land and
the conversion of the bench and
valley lands to general cultivation
and the seeding down of hillsides
for pasture. The value of land in
this section for agricultural and
stock raising purposes has been
greatly enhanced. An expert
enced woodsman estimates that in
some places the work of clearing
the land and getting it under cul-
tivation has been lessened by $25
per acre. A trip into the woods,
where one can see the ground alb
solutely barred of brush and dead
and down timber, will convince
one that the estimate is not too
high. Some of the owners of burn
ed over ranches are already taking
this optimistic view of the situation
and believe that they will ulti-
mately reap benefit from this
calamity.
SEEDING OF BURNED AREA URGED.
Old-timers in this section who
are experienced in this matter sug-
gest that grass seed be sown on the
ashes of the fire. Timothy, clover,
blue grass and orchard grass sown
ON ashes within the next few weeks
will thrive and not only produce
crops and pasturage. but will keep
the lands free from weeds and
brush that will otherwise spriug up.
With no cultivation, simply sown
on the ashes, the country that now
looks barren will in the spring take
on an appearance of life. Timothy
and clover on the cultivable land,
blue grass and orchard grass on
the hill sides.
Too much stress cannot be laid
on the Importance of this seeding.
Every rancher interviewed on the
subject by The MINER says it is
practical and the right thing to do.
The matter was taken up with the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce
and it's representative who said
that in his opinion the plan would
prove boon to the country, and
would urge the Chamber to take
up the matter Of furnishing seed to
the ranchers.
Fires have been raging in almost
every section of the Northwest. In
places there has been greater de-
vastation than in this locality. The
sympathy of this community is
extended to other afflicted districts
and the hope that the situation
will be met as bravely and hope
fully as it is here.
The big fire that spread over this
section and crossed into the Priest
: River country did considerable
damage there, but to what extent
is not yet known, as means of COM
munication are meager. However
the work of destruction was not al
!. complete as in this vicinity and nc
lives are reported lost there.

Let the Office Seek the Man

THIS country is suffering severely from an
overdose of office seekers. From one end of
the year to the other, Old Man Peepul is pes
tered, persuaded, glad handed, by lot of
fellows who pretend to think the world and
all of him, and who, after they get what they
want out of him, break the promises they
made him and shamefully betray him to the
benefciaries of Special Privilege
Certain nominations have been obtained in
the State of Georgia by methods which were
not only disgraceful, but which were illegal
If you were to secure deed, note, mortgage
or will in your favor, law would set these
tainted contracts aside The same principle
should be applied to political nominations
There being no law to reach such cases and
no forum in which to try them, the only re-
dress which the people have is to ignore those
nominations in the regular election. IF the
people will only do this one time, it will put
an end to the use of money and whiskey in
the primaries, for the politicians would never
spend from twenty to forty thousand dollars
to secure something that they can't hold.
The nomination of the gubernatorial candi-
date IN Georgia is null and void for the fol-
lowing reasons:
o. Money and whskey were used for
him throughout the State,
(2) lie practced a gross deception upon
the people by his reputation of the JAS j.

(3.) He deliberately imposed upon the
friends of Watson by assuring them that
Watson leaned toward him in this campaign
To ma Ike this deception the more beneficial to
himself, he sent the Judge Hines circular to
many JEFFERsoNIAN subscribers, Just before
the election, and this caused thousands of
Watson men to think it was done with Wat
sons consent in the effort to quietly help

In the general election, you have the legal

election, and put into his platform a plank
which, while differently worded, is the same

AS to those nominations won by the De-
serters they are like any other contract or
deed or property whose title is based upon
fraud or an immoral or illegal consideration.
They were bought with Federal patronage,
money, and whls1ey, and the people are I'M

Deserters and Do-nothings and put in their

the West thus uniting the two great agricul-

Eastern manufacturers, reduce tariff taxa

the country.

WHEN they hand you the ticket on the first
Wednesday in October, scratch the name
that's there as candidate for Governor. and
substitute the name Joseph M. Brown. or.
better still, print separate tickets with the
name OF Brown instead of that of Smith, In
the general election, it is your privilege to
vote for anybody you please, and it will be
the duty of the managers to count the votes.
Without being a candidate, Governor Brown
can be elected, and if chosen in this wav bv a
voluntary movement of his people, he would
surely not refuse to serve them
In the First District, we will vote for Enoch
Giles. In the Eighth District. we must CON

the office will seek Hon. VIM. H. Fleming. Tn

Ferry ought to make the race. Either one
would make model Congressman, and if
Judge Ferry is dlslncllned to make the race,

What the Catholic Priests Were
Saying just Before Gaynor
Was Shot


Was Shot
FROM the altar of the church of St. Atha-
nasius, in the city of New York, the Rev. w.
J. Dougherty, a Catholic priest, delivered a
violent TRADE against William j. Gaynor, in
which occurred these words: "This man has
denied his God, he has turned traitor, he is an
Atheist. | am assured that before
the nomination was made the Archbishop
asked those IN power in that mans party not
to name him for office, because he was Of
fensive to Catholics. Those of our faith are
now to meet crisis, and they should meet it
IN the only way possible"
The influx of European Catholics, of He
brews, of Chinese, Of Japanese and of other
foreigners into greater New York has reduced
the Protestants to an almost negligible guam
tlty. But, lnasmuch as less than one third Of
the population of the city are church mem
bers at all, Gaynor was elected in spite of the
efforts of the Catholic hierarchy to defeat
him. lie began to redeem his campaign
pledges by retrenchment and reform He be-
gan to abolish useless offices, and to remove
officials who were unfathful to their trust
The greater number of these were, of course
Catholics, for they were appointed under
Tammany. With the loss of these offices
came loss of revenue to the Catholic HER
archy. A discharged employee named Gala
CHER was selected as the instrument of priestlv
vengeance. Gallagher did not know Gaynor
by sight, and priest who did was selected to-
point him out to the assassin.
Accordingly, the priest took position on
the deck of the vessel on which Gaynor was
about to sail to Europe for vacation The
name of this priest has been kept profound
secret. My intuition, as lawyer, tells me
that the two confederates in crime, the priest
and the assassin, were not personally &C.
quainted with each other The ''men higher
up had instructed Gallagher to look for
priest who would be there, and who would be
easy to recognize on account of his garb and
his cross.
When the would-be assassin reached the
deck of the vessel, his eager eye singled out
this priest, who was waiting for him, and the
priest promptly did what he was put there
to do,-pointed to the intended victim.
You will remember that the priest disap-
peared as if the earth had yawned and swal-
lowed him. His name has never been
mentioned. None of the papers or magazines
have dared to discuss this feature of the case,
and Gaynor himself appears to have been so
inundated by his narrow escape from death
that he declines to talk about the shooting at
ALL
There was young man at my house the
other day who was in New York at the time
the shooting occurred. He says that he heard
hundreds of men say that Gaynor ought to
have been killed They were, of course,
fanatical Catholics
Things are coming to pretty pass in this
country, don't you think?

at Miliyille, where at o'clock yesrer-

twenty dollars in cash secured by the

Here they abandoned tae car and in
what direction they went is not known
but a strict watch is being kept by

acters will be arrested.
Entrance to the building was easily
gained. The strips on the side of the
window were removed and the sash
taken ont, allowing the robbers easy
access to the interior Of the room. The
safe, which was not n large one, was
completely demolished, the inner door
being blown 10 pieces and the outcr
door being badly bent. Scattered all
over the room was the fire proof lin

outcome being about as tight battle
as the locals could handle and come
out with the big end of the score.
For nine innings Nescopeck was
blanked, although at times their goose
egg record was maintained only by
the narrowest margin. In the sixth the
LAST out was made on Thomas, who
was caught at the plate.
Danville, also, failed to tally during
