DUBOIS MAY BOLT
DEMOCRATIC PARTY
It the Former Senator Loses in His Fight for
Certain Federal Appointments, It IS Claimed
He Intends to Join the Progressives.

According to little story that is
going the rounds up in Bingham
county, the home of former United
States Senator Fred T. Dubois, the
process of eliminating" him from
politics in Idaho doesn't seem to
have as smooth skidding as was
planned, and he appears to be a
factor of considerable import, as
viewed by the democrats of the up
per valley and others. In discuss
ing a situation that has developed in
respect to the Blackfoot post office
and other appointments, the Black
foot Courier of last Monday says:
That Fred 7. Dubois is planning
to desert the ranks of the democratic
party and take with him his issues
into the progressive camp is evidenc-
ed by affidavits which have been
used by prominent. democrats Of
Bingham county with department
officials and party leaders at Wash
ington and also with the powers Of
the party at Boise.
Democratic County Chairman Orr
Chapman sought the appointment of
his mother as postmistress at Black
foot, County Central Committeeman
c. F. Molden when approached by
Chapman, in behalf of his mothers
candidacy, endeavored to- force po-
litical deal in the interest of Dubois.
He gave Chapman to understand that
the only condition under which he
would aid his mother would be that
Chapman and his friends agree to
support Dubois as a candidate for
the United States senate on the pro-
gressive ticket. These are the ale
cations set forth in affidavits filed
by Chapman and others.
Chapman today, however, refused
to make public copies of the docu-
ments which include not only his own
afidavits, but affidavits of others, in
cluding Editor Toner Of the Aber-
deem Times, the only democratic
paper published in southeastern Ida
no, who Molden is alleged to have
also approached in the interest of
Dubois as progressive.
Dubois, it has been rumored since
the organization of the progressive
party, has been looking in that di-
rection for vehicle and the devel-
opments of the last few days would
seem to indicate that such rumors
have not been entirely without foun-
dation.
Molden is candidate for the re-
ceivership of the United Stated land
Office at Blackfoot. He is relying
largely upon the support of Dubois
for success. In the event that Du-
bois cannot control this as well as
other appointments in Idaho the plan
alleged, is that he will with his fol-

lowers, renounce allegiance to th'
democratic part, as he did the re
publican party years ago.
Nodded, the affidavit would indi
cate, became too aggressive in max
ing advance plans for the exodus anC
his efforts threaten to prove a boom
erang. Chapman and his associate,
have seized upon his alleged politica
moves and statements and are using
them in an effort to defeat his ap-
pointment. They have gone ever
further in their fight on Molder
and have filed copies of affidavits
which reflect upon the character OF
the candidate.
The progressive party is not strong
in the southeast as revealed at the
last general election. Dubois and
his issues are unpopular with ma
jority of the people of this section
as evidences at the polls time and
again. That Dubois is unpopular
with the democrats in Idaho was dis.
closed at Occur d'Alene where at a
time when he was managing Champ
Clark's campaign for the presidency
a convention, which instructed dele
gates to Baltimore to vote for
Clark, refused to permit Dubois to
have place on the delegation.
Former State Chairman Nugent
pleaded with the delegates at that
convention not to seat Dubois and
asserted, in other words, that to do
so would be to flount red flag in
the face of the democrats in the
southeast, blighting all hopes of
party success in the state in the fu-
ture.
The alleged Molden incident,
therefore, offers a political sepsation
of unusual interest as it has been
claimed that Dubois has been seek
ing to control Idaho appointments
at Washington because of his pres
tige as a former United States SEN
ator and by posing as a power with
in the democratic party in the state.
Dubois is supporting w. G. Craig
as a candidate for the position as
postmaster at Blackfoot and he has
written other candidates urging
them to withdraw and telegraphed
prominent democrats that all can
didates should withdraw in favor of
Craig, as the appointment of Craig
would best serve his (Dubois') in
terests.
After Chapman had filed the affi-
davits against Molden, in opposing
him as a candidate for the receiver
ship of the land office, Molden went
to Chapman and agreed to withdraw
his support from Craig and support
Mrs. Chapman, it is stated, on con-
dition that the affidavit should be

1t is estimated that potatoes have
a value of 25 cents per bushel for
direct feeding. The difficulty in
American potato districts is that the
agriculture is not yet sufficiently

EXPLOSIVES FROM

Their lives imperiled by a cargo Of
high explosives, from the dupont
powder plants at Wilmington. Del,
and Thompson's Point. n. j., which
is threatened momentarily by the con-
slant jarring of the waves the officers
and crew Of the British steamship
Croydon are prisoners on board that
vessel as she Is being pounded to
pieces by q heavy sea on the rocks
off the coast Of the Island Barbuda,
British West Indies Advices con-
cerning the plight Of the Croydon
were received yesterday at the Mari
time Exchange. Philadelphia, in a
cablegram dispatched from the Lee
ward Islands.
The dispatch states that the steam
ship, with her entire cargo, will be an
entire loss. On account Of the dan
gerous nature OF the Cryden's cargo,
the British Government has sent out
warning TO mariners to keep away
from the wreck. According to the
dispatches. there are no wrecking
crews near the spot where the steam
ship is ashore, and II Is doubtful II
wrecking crews from other points can
be induced TO 90 to the aid of the
vessel II they learn Of the explosives
in her hold.
The Croydon, with a crew OF p
men, under command Of Captain Clay
ton, sailed from Philadelphia March
"a for Guayaquil, Ecuador. In heI
hold she carried 1860 cases of dyna-
mite, "a cases, OF blasting caps and q
I quantity OF fuse, consigned TO the sill.
yer mines in the Andes Mountains.
From the tenor Of the dispatches
IL IS believed the Croydon has beer
ashore since Sunday. and grave fear
are entertained for the safety OF th'
crew. Even If they escape death II
an explosion, they are In danger o
drowning when the doomed yesse
goes TO pieces.
The cargo of explosives was takel
aboard at the dupont de Nemours
