to Victory.
WHETHER NOMINATED OR NOT

Friends or Enemies.
HARD COURSE TO STEER

Wilier W'llrain to Chicago Record-Herald.
XEW YORK. Aug. 3. (Special.) It
is a pretty pickle the Republican lead
era of this state And themselves In. If
they nominate Mr. Hughes for another
term, they fear the loss of the state
ao far as the Governorship Is con
rerned. and If they don't renominate
him, they will pretty certainly suffer
a crushing; defeat. This Is standing
between the devil and the deep blue
sea for fair.
What effect this peculiar situation Is
likely to have upon the Presidential
rote of New York remains to be seen.
But It Is easy to see that the men who
are Interested In the Republican Na
tional ticket do not much relish their
task of trying; to steer through the
narrow and difficult strait whose defile
Is menaced by the Hughe Scylia on
one side and the Hughes Charybdls on
the other.
Win Be Knifed Either Way.
At this time the probabilities are the
77 publican machine wfll be forced
agast Its will to nominate the Gov
ernor, and take the risk of losing the
state and of having the National ticket
Jeoparded. If It does this It will do
it agalrst the wishes of President Roose
velt and most of the organization men
In the Kate and will do It with a wry
face and simply as a choice of evils,
A few words will suffice to explain why
the Republicans are afraid they can't
win with Hughes and can't without him.
There are many thousands of voters ready
and eager to put the knife Into Mr.
Hughes. If he runs again, and many
thousands ready and eager to put the
knife Into any other man named to run
In his stead. This would not be so bad
If there was a fair offset If those who
are against Hughes would contribute
enough votes to elect some one else, or
If those who are for Hughes would
promise the. support necessary to pull
him through. But there ls no such off
setat least none of adequate or reas
suring proportions.
Hail Hughes as Moral Hero.
It Is clear that Governor Hughes has
won the admiration and approval of a
majority of the best men and women of
the state without regard to their party
affiliations. His snubbing of the machine
politicians, his racetrack and other re
forms, his going ahead with what he
believes to be right without asking the
permission of this or that leader, have
put him In a class all by himself. To
most of the people he appears as a moral
hero, as one man of ten millions.
Mr. Roosevelt la a reformer, too, but
he has always managed to work with and
through his party, coaxing It or driving
it and taking from it what he could get.
even if he could, not get all he wanted.
Hughes la of another stamp. He defies
the whole tribe of politicians those of
b!a own party as well as of the other
party.
ONE FIRM'S LOSS $300,000

VANCOUVER, B. C, Aug. 8. (Special.)
Dispatch from Fernie tonight says that
12 bodies had been found in the town and
In burned logging camps and 33 people are
still missing. -
SPOKANE. Wash., Aug. 3. (Special.)
Fifteen known dead, the towns of Hosmer
and Michel only partially burned, a de
nial of the report that 60 men and two
women perished In a logging camp on Elk
River, and a persistent rumor that Fer
nie was destroyed by incendiaries, is the
gist of the Fernie situation as near as it
can be summarized from reliable informa
tion on hand tonight.
Early estimates of fatalities are believed
to have been greatly exaggerated. Late
this afternoon an Associated Prees cor
respondent at Nelson, B. C, after inter
viewing many refugees from the burned
city, estimated that the death list will
not exceed a score. A Vancouver, B. C.
report says the death list will not
reach 10.
Recover Fifteen Bodies.
A staff correspondent of the Spokesman-Review
wires from Fernie tonight:
When night fell over the ashes of Fer
nie, the bodies of 15 fire victims had
been found. Among them were Mrs.
Addle Turner, widow, agad 75; tTalter
Ford, a miner;. "Mrs. Welter Ford ' and

and two bodies found on the railroad
track.
Many Still Missing.
The Ford family of four perished In a
well where they had sought safety. The
fire burned the wooden curbing and the
family suffocated.
Fears are expreesed for the safety
of scores of other persons, although
many of the missing may merely have
become separated from their friends in
the excitement and confusion of a
general conflagration.

the mercury reached the 94 degree mark,
which It had not attained since August

by the mercury; there was less suffering
In the city than there was on some of
the days last week when the tempera
tures were in the 80s. Then, however,
there was great hurnidUy. Today it was
dry and a 15-mile wind was blowing from
the southwest. This kept the number of
deaths and prostrations down.
Four deaths and 26 serious cases of
prostration had been reported up to 10
o'clock. Tonight a cooling breeze came
off the lake, which lowered the tempera
ture to 87 degrees. The police killed 24
unmuzzled dogs In the warfare to reduce
the alarming number of hydrophobia

The directors of the city schools are
asking authority from the taxpayers to
issue bonds to the amount of $5000 for
the purpose of constructing an addition
to the Eastham building. Bids will be
opened next Thursday evening for this

CHICAGO, Aug. 8. (Special.)
"The American people ought to be will
ing to pay the railroads compensation
for proper transportation service such
service as we are now performing, and
for which we are not receiving an ade
quate return."
This was the reply Edward H. Har
rlman made today to a question seek
ing his position on the subject of in
creased freight rates.
"If railroads are to go on extending
their lines. Improving' the ones they
now operate and providing equipment
to take care of the business of the
country," he continued, "they have got
to get more revenue,"
Mr. Harriman seemed to favor read
justment of rates rather than a general
increase. He is opposed to placing a
straight 10 per cent Increase in trans
portation charges upon all commodi
ties. Would Not Hurt Shippers.
"Do you think," he was asked, "that
the present time Is opportune in which
to increase freight rates?"
"Any and all times are opportune to
do what is right and what should be
done," was his answer.
"What effect upon, the business of
the country do you think aii-. increase
in freight rates such as you would fa
vour would have?"
"The added transportation cost to
the shipper or the consumer would be
so small as not to be noticed by
either, but the aggregate Increase in
railroad revenues would be sufficient
to enable railroads to continue provid
ing for good servlca. It would also
benefit most those who are now oppos
ing It."
Fay Labor Highest Wages.
"If there is no increase, will there be
a decrease in wages?"
"I will not talk about wages,"
snapped the railroad magnate. Then
he at once proceeded to talk about
them.
"The railroad laborer," he said, "la
in the same position that the railroad
should be in. In other words, he is en
titled to all he can get for his services,
that Is, of course, provided he gives
the very best service that lies In him
