w. Monroe Smith. one of the men
who stood by, powerless to render as
s%istance, while two men were roasted
to death in the flames which reduced
to ashes a South Dakota Central rail
way passenger train nea WATERFOWL
last Saturday morning, yesterday at
the Lake Park hotel described, for
readers Of The Daily Leader, incl
dents attending the repellent scene
Of the most disastrous rail catastro-
phe of recent years in South Dakota.
Mr.. Smith is a representative of the
Freight Audit company, of Chicago,
and had boarded the train, in which,
a few minutes later, two persons were
killed and more than a dozen severe
ly injured, at WATERFOWL.
Il was sitting in the day coach
when the crash came said Mr..
Smith. The engine had gotten
across the bridge on which the acct
dent occurred, but the combination
baggage and mail ear dropped a sheer
forty feet, pulling our car partly
down on top Of it at an angle Of about
As degrees. Men and women shot
forward, with the coal burning stoves
and debris. Before a full realization
of what had happened had come upon
US, many of those who were not too
stunned to give voice to their feel
ings were screaming with pain.
See Man Burned.
THE burning to death of Dooling,
the travelling man, in plain view of
the passengers, will always be re
called with horror by those who saw
it. Almost the whole front of our
car had been torn out. Dooling was
thrown forward, and one Of his arms
caught under a beam in such a man
ner that he could not extricate it.
At the risk of their own lives, several
men tried to release the doomed
salesman, but their race with the rap
idly approaching flames was an IN
equal one, and they were driven back.
The fully conscious man is believed
to have thoroughly realized the fear
full tate that was only seconds away.
David Lovejoy, the mail clerk,
may have been killed when the com
bination mail and baggage car went
through the bridge. Only the trunk
of his body was found. The remains
were identified by a watch and a
badge.
Deeds of Bravery.
Had it not been for deeds of he
roism of passengers and Conductor
Dawson, others would have persisted.
One old woman was sent head first
under some of the wreckage, and was
unable to release herself. Men
caught her by the feet, and while
dragging her out, pulled her shoes
off. A little girl, 6 TO 7 years old,
would have shared Dooling's fate,
had it not been for the bravery of
her mother. The little girl, one of
two children accompanying the moth
er, was pinned to the floor. Strength,
lent by fear that the child would be
lost, enabled the woman to rescue
the little girl. 1t was then found that
the other child was missing. She
had walked away of her own accord,
and was soon located. The timely
aid of Conductor Dawson was high
ly commendable."
Mr.. Smith said that Robert Max
we'll, the engineer, was probably the
worst hurt of any of those who sur
vived. The engine, although crossing

JUDGE DUNN ANNOUNCES HIS
CANDIDACY FOR JUSTICE
OF SUPREME COURT

IN announcing his candidacy for
Justice of the supreme court, Judge
Robert N. Dunn OF Occur d'Alene
Judge of the Eighth judicial district
and the northern Idaho candidate" for
that office, takes the high stand that
the bench should be kept aloof from
politics and the scramble for political
preferment WHICH usually character
ICES campaigns for state office. He
will not resort to tactics calling upon
him to run about the state persistent
ly seeking votes. His campaign will
be dignified and in keeping with the
office.
Judge Dunn's announcement created
q deep impression in political circles.
He Is known as one of the most able
jurists Of the north with every quail
fication for the office to which he as
pires. There is but one other known
candidate for the same office. the pres
ent chief justice of the present court,
who has been on the bench since the
state was admitted into the union.
The fact that four years ago the SUI
preme court of Idaho played no small
part in the political campaign through
a decision rendered by that tribunal
HnO tllS part one OIL tIt pISSeul hiSlH-
bers of the court had in the decision
as well as events which followed, has
since caused not a little agitation for
some strong jurist of the state to enter
the race for the bench. 1t has been
known for some time that Judge Dunn
was considering the matter and the an
nouncement of his candidacy was
therefore not a great surprise.
Announcement Given Out
Judge Dunn's formal announcement
IN as follows:
10 the Voters of the State of Idaho:
am O. candidate for the office of
Justice Of the supreme court OF this
state.
My official duties as district Judge,
as well as other circumstances, will
prevent me from making an extend
ed canvass of the state for the nomi-
nation, and will likewise forbid such
canvass for the office If shall be
nominated. In my opinion the proper
limits to candidates activities for
this office are very much narrower
than should be prescribed for candf-
dates for other offices. While I do
not hold that a candidate for the SUI
preme bench may do nothing to fur
ther his interests as a candidate, am
in full sympathy with the attitude Of
many thoughtful voters who look with
disfavor upon the persistent urging of
his candidacy by himself, whether such
or by the widespread publication of

cred with grasses and heritage and
which he had used for stock range;
that after the herding OF the nocks
across the range within this zone 1t
was damaged to such an etent that
stock could not be ranged on it. Dem
ney asked for damages and the lower
court gave him $3.50 because of tres
pass and the damage done to the range.
A motion for a new trial was made
It was denied by the court and an ap-
peal was taken.
This is but one of a number of cases
which have grown out of the alleged
violation of the two-mile limit law.
Recently sheepmen have been forced to
pay heavy fines because their herders
failed to keep outside of the two-mile
limit zone. The stockmen insist that
the zone is entitled to the protection
the law gives them and that unless
sheepmen obey the law they will be
prosecuted.
1t is believed that. the Denney-Ar-
ratola case contains all the issues in
volved in the two-mile limit contro-
versy and therefore the outcome of the
appeal and the construction placed on
the law by the supreme court will be
awaited by sheep and stockmen with
a great deal Of interest.

BUY CLAIMS AT
THEIR own RISK
Livestock Board Makes
Statement on Predatory
Animal Fund.

Those who purchase claims against
now exhausted, do so at their own risk.
The only hope Of compensation they
have is that the next legislature will
reimburse them through an appropria-
ton. A warning to this effect has been
authorized by the state livestock san
itary board. The warning is signed by
State Veterinarian Bodle and is suffi-
cient to give notice to those interested
that they take claims at their own risk.
The predatory animal fund became
exhausted some time ago due to the
heavy drain made upon 1t by slayers of
predatory animals who have been very
active. Since then the state veterinary
department has been receiving the
claims and placing them on file. Many
have come in and 1t is now very appar-
ent that the only way the hunters can
be reimbursed Is by a legislative APP
preparation.
The state livestock sanitary board
was In session for two days this week
but aside from auditing bills did little
else The rabies and hog cholera situa-
ton were discussed informally but no
action was taken. The board realizes
that hog cholera Is under much better
control now than it was year ago and
that there is less of the disease. With
regard to the rabies members of the
board felt that everything possible was
being done to externinate the coyote
and stamp out the disease
The following is the warning the
board authorized sent to the people of
the state regarding the payment of
bounties:
ITO whom 1t may concern.
Notice is hereby given that all avail
able funds for the payment of bounty
claims for predatory animals killed
within the state Of Idaho, have been ex-
hausted and there are sufficient claims
on file to use all moneys coming into
