POPOCRATS ALARMED
Leaders Upset by the Combi
nation in Idaho.
SILVER REPUBLICANS INSULTED
The Turnjo;-I)on of Senator lnbois
Will lllsrupt llie Force iu
the West.
Washington, Aug. 20. At botk Dem
ocratic and Populist, headquarters, ser
ious alarm is felt over the situation in
Idaho, where the news dispatches in
dicate that the Democrats and Populists
have effected a f usiou which leaves ont
the Bilver Republicans. The managers
at both headquarters consider that this
combination, at the expense of the sil
ver Republicans, is a violation of the
spirit of the free-silver campaign, which
seeks to combine all the silver forces,
and they fear its effect on the silver Re
publicans of other Western states. They
believe the different forces should have
combined on equitable and just terms
and effected a division snch as was made
in Minnesota and Washington. More
over, they consider that it is especially
ungrateful in Idaho, because the refusal
to recognize the silver Republicans in
volves the defeat of Senator Dubois.
The latter is looked upon by both De
mocratic and Populist managers as one
of the central figures in the bolt of free
silver Republicans from the Republican
party on the issue. On his instrumen
tality, also, is largely attributed the de
feat of the tariff bill in the senate, ex
cept with a free-silver rider, and to ."turn
him down" they believe wonld send a
chill through the leaders of the silver
Republicans of the West.
A ItAPK FIEND IS LYNCHED.
Frank Biles. A,
Half-Breed
Asotin.
Hanged at
Lewiston, Idaho, Aug. 20. The quiet
town of Asotin was the scene, on Tues
day night, of a lynching, whereby Frank
Biles, a notoriously tough half-breed In
dian from the Xez Perce reservation,
was swung into eternity at the end of a
rope, by indignant citizens, for the
brutal crime of rape, which be com
mitted upon the person of Miss Mary
Richardson, a girl 17 years of age, yes
terday afternoon at a point on the road
between Lewiston and Asotin.
Miss RichanlBon resides at Enterprise,
Or., but has lately been visiting friends
in this vicinity. Yesterday she started
to ride from here to Asotin on horse
back, nnattended, and on her way was
overtaken by three Indians, also on
horseback, one of whom was the brute
Biles. - They passed her, but in a short
time Biles came back alone and, riding
alongside of the young lady, he seized
the horse's bridle and tried to lead him
into some bushes.
Miss Richardson sprang from her
horse and Tan screaming down the road,
but Biles soon overtook her and, flour
ishing a revolver, threatened to kill her.
He then dragged her into the bushes
and accomplished his brutal purpose,
after which be mounted his horse and
rode away.
Miss Richardson was found a little
later by a man who took her to Asotin,
where she told her story. Officers im
mediately went In search of Biles, who
they soon found and placed in the jail at
Asotin.
Meanwhile angry men had been form
ing a plan of action, and at 11 o'clock
they went in a perfectly orderly manner
and demanded of the jailer that he sur
render the keys. The jailer refused,
and the keys were forcibly taken from
him. The men then went to the ' pris
oner's cell and took him out, " relocked
the jail and returned the keys to the
jailer. They then proceeded to a corner
of the jailyard, which is surrounded by
a high board fence, t.nd laid a stout pole
across the corner, over which a rope was
thrown and one end attached to the pris
oner's neck. . He was then drawn np
and left hanging,, while the crowd, after
being satisfied that the wretch was dead,
quietly dispersed. There is no clew to
the identity of the lynchers.

HOW IT LOOKS IN LONDON.
News Comments Upon Opening of Sound
Money's Campaign. '
.London, Aug. 20. The Daily News,
in an editorial tnis morning, contrasts
the enthusiasm and unity which it says
was manifest at the meeting Tuesday
night when Bourke Cockran opened the
campaign in the interest of the gold
standard Democrats, with the discord,
It says, was apparent at the meeting
when William Jennings Bryan was noti
fied of his nomination. The Daily News
applauds Mr. Bryan's cynical frankness
as to what the result wonld be in case
bimetalism should be adopted. Con
tinuing, the Daily News says:
"Cataline, with his Lovae Tabulae,
was not . more definite than is Bryan
with his wet sponge. It, our New York
correspondent says, Cleveland throws
bis immense influence against him,
Bryan is certain to be defeated. In any
case, the election of McKinley will do
nothing to revive the old McKinley
tariff. - McKinley 't watchword must be
'sound money and national honor."'
