Why Ford was Kitted.
Jamestown, Colo., June 10. Tji&t
Bob Ford was killed to aveago sofbe
wrong deed, there seems to be no doubt.
Edward A. Kelley, bis slayer, catna from
Harrison vil le, Cass connty, Missouri. A
couple ot years before bis deatb, wbeo
Jesse James and Bob Ford were partners
in crime, tbey went together to Kelly's
Homestead .to rob tbe family. They
killed tne old man and one of his sons.
They palled out Mrs. Kelly's toenails in
an effort to make her tell where her
noner was bid, bnt. as near as ran be
learned, were not successful. It is said
that Edward Kelly swore to avenge the
death of bis father and brother, and the
outrageous treatment ot his mother. This
is believed to be tbe true motive of tbe
killing yesterday by all those who knew
both men in Missouri. - At midnight
last night, a man called "French Joe,
was arrested as an accomplice in tbe
murder of Ford. He has been identified
as tbe man who rode up on horseback:
and handed Kelly the shotgun. Ford
will be buried in Crede.
. STo reaee for the Irt"h. '
New York, June 10. The Federation
of America has for some time been corre-
ponding witb the leaders of tbe national
party of Ireland, with a view of securing
united action between tbe two factions at
the general election. Tbe proposition
not to contest seats where tbe conatit
uency was Parnellite was discussed by
the executiue board of tbe Federation ot
America, and forwarded to . McCarthy
for consideration of bis party.. Tbe out
come ot tne correspondence is shown in
tbe following dispatch from Dillon to
Redmond: "The' proposed terms are
impossible, and not honestly meant. Tbe
constituencies would revolt. We bave
gone as tar for peace as the country will
stand. The country now must decide at
tbe polls." .
In New York.
New York, Jane 10 Tbe nomination
of Harrison and Reid created a variety of
sentiment in tbis city. M. M. Estee, of
California, wbo was chairman of the Re-
publscan national convention in 1888,
and who was a strong Blaine man, said :
Tbe nominations are wholly acceptable
to tbe business interests of the country.
Harrison's administration has been strong
and sate, l ne ticket win carry California.
H W. Cannon, president of the Chase
National bank, and one of tbe best
known men in banking circled, said :
The renomination ot Harrison is espe
cially gratifying to tbe banking and
business men.
None Ctrl Held for Murder.
Seattle, Wash., June 10. Hildegard
: Rundberg, tbe 14 year old nurse girl wbo
was arrested Tuesday, charged witb
giving Richard Parker, the infant son of
Air. and Mrs. Frank farker, a dose of
rough on-rats, was held for trial to-day
by Justice Yontobel upon a charge oi
murder in tbe first degree. Considering
tbe girl's age and circumstances, be ad
mitted ber to bail in tbe sum of $3000,
wbicb was promptly furnished, and she
was released.
1b Use House of Representatives,
Washington, June 10. The attend
ance on the floor of bouse tbis afternoon
was larger than any previous time dur
ing tbe convention. A large blackboard
was placed on tbe clerk's desk, and as
fast as the bulletins were received tbey
were read by tbe reading clerk, and each
vote recorded on tbe board. Tbe friends
of the president applauded loudly when
the result was known. It is difficult to
get tbe views of a great. number ot tbe
members on tbe nominations. In most
cases tbe Republican members expressed
satisfaction with the result, and the
Democrats also generally said tbey were
pleased. .
. Bialae's ComssmsilesiUsm.
Boston, June 10. Ex Secretary Blaine
and Mrs. Blaine left for Bar Harbor on
tbe afternoon train. Before be left the
city tbis evening, Mr. Blaine gave tbis
communication to a representative of tbe
Journal:
Tbe resolution, energy and persistency
which marked tbe proceedings of tbe con
vention at Minneapolis will, if turned
against a common foe, win tbe election in
November. All minor differences should
be merged in tbe duty of every Repub
lican to do all in bis power to elect tbe
ticket tbis day nominated by tbe nation
al Republican convention.
Peeling la Berlin.
Berlin, Jane ' 11. -The Minneapolis
convention was followed witb tbe greatest
of interest in political circlet here, where
it was generally expected and boned
Blaine would be successful, not because
he is liked, but his success' bere would
bave been regarded as a partial rebuff
to tbe McKinley policy, which tbe
German manufacturers are still smarting
under. All bere are in sympathy witb
tbe Democrats, While the personal
character ot President Hasrison and the
ability of Reid are universally conceded
little attempt is made to conceal the
hope tbey will be beaten at tbe polls.
Tbe meetings between tbe czar and
Emperor William were tbe leading topic
ot conversation during tbe week. Ibe
comments of tbe newspapers here show
it is felt there is little reason for congrat
ulation over tbe nsult of tbe meeting,
wbicb bad much tbe appearance of tbe
emperor running, after tbe czar, while
tbe ostentatious visit of the Oand Duke
Constantine to Nancy, at the express
instruction of tbe czar, dispels tbe idea
that political importance can be attached
to the Kiel meeting. Tbe Cologne Ga
telle affirms tbe czr, while at Kiel, de
clared be would no: support France if
she raised any question regarding Alsace
.Lorraine.
The papers are still occupied in dig
cussiDg the prospects of a conciliation
between tbe emperor and Biemark. The
report has been circulated that Bismark
will be made president of tbe state
council, but there is little likelihood that
tbe ez cbancelor would accept such an
unimportant position. An extriordinary
story wes recently in circulation to tbe
effect that the emperor, while passing
through Fredricbsruhe, stopped a train
and sent a message to- Biemark request'
ing him to come to the train. Prince
Bismark decided to go, but was dissuaded
by bis wife and Count Herbert. Finally
a message was sent tbe emperor inform
ing bim Bismark was unable to comply
witb tbe request.
Everybody Rtjolelns;.
Mullan, Idaho, Jnae 11. The excite
ment of yesterday increased to day, on
the receipt oLtbe good news from below.
Many heavyweights arrived, among
whom were J. M. Burke, President Gross,
of the Morniog Company, and J. B. Mc-
Aulay. McAalay consumed an hour de
fining bis position on t he labor question.
He said be wanted to run no company
boarding bouse or store, and was willing
to pay $ 3. 50 per day to all. Any man
Who bad a gnevaDce could settle it witb
him by arbitration. T. P. Purcell fol
lowed In behalf of the union, and proved
all that tbe union ; ever demanded was
the rights of its members to recognition
as free American citizens and fair wages.
On receipt of the following message from
Wallace to Tom Henry, president of tbe
union, tbe community ezpeuenced still
greater excitement:
P. Clark and S. S. Gltdden bave
signed a contract to start up to morrow
morning and pay tbe scale of wages and
hours at the time of the shut-down in
January."
When this was made known through
out tbe town, arrangements were hastily
made for a demonstration. At this bour,
8:30 P. M. tbe fire department is parsd
log, covered witb flags and mottoes. One
is "Might is Right," another,"In Uuion
There is Strength," etc. Tbe band is
playing, rockets are being sent ud and
giant powder being exploded on tbe sur
rounding bills, sending boom after boom
down . tbe former deatb like canyon
causing nearly everybody to rejoice at
tbe good news.
The Berkeley Kebbery.
San Francisco, June 12. Tbe police
think they bve a clue to'tbe Berkeley
robbers wbo got a war witb $15,000 yes
terday, and have offered a reward ot
$1000 for tbe capture of J. G. Smith and
Joe Dunn, formerly employes of the Jud
son Company, but woo left some time
ago of their own accord. Tbe police re
fuse to give their reasons lor suspecting
these men. Tbe robbers bave been
traced to tbe foothills of Mount Diablo,
15 miles from Oakland, where it is
thought they buned tbe money. One
remained there to guard tbe treasure,
while the other returned to Oakland with
a horse and buggy. Another man sus
pected is a discharged employe . named
Girard. wbo is also known as Frank
Queen, an ex-criminal. He is supposed
to be the robber whose face was
blackened.-

Jlallroad, TralDe Interrmpted.
Helena, Mont., June 12. Railroad
traffic is greatly delayed in northern,
western and southern Montana, owing to
heavy rains of tbe last few days. There
was no train in from Great Falls yester
day, nor any out to-day. No definite
information as to tbe damage can be se
cured. Between Helena and Butte there
were two slides near Bernice on the
Northern Pacific. There is a big wash
out at Ellison, 15 cites east. All tbe
through trains for Portland are going via
Butte, instead of Helena, A passenger
traia on tbe eastern Montana division

tions weie passed censuring tbe governor
of Idabo for issuing bis proclamation on
tbe present labor troubles in tbis county.
W. T. Btoll and lion. VY. M. uiagett

quite an oppos'tion - was developed, but
tbe resolutions were adopted. The
Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine has 200
men emDloved to da v. tbe Sierra Nevada
70, tbe Last Chance 21, tbe Gem 15, tbe
Frisco 50, and the Union 60.
The Cholera la Persia.

in tbe city bave escaped cholera, which
is raging in. the province of Kbsrasan.
Among tbe natives tbe deaths reached
250 daily. Tbe disease is of the most
violent type. Persons, seemingly per
fectly well, were seized with the disease

ple look upon tbe epidemic as a visita
tion from God.
Stoma la the Weftt
Chicago, June 13-Tbis city was
visited this afternoon by one of tbe most
severe storm Ju years. .It lasted only a
short time. At midnight two persons axe
known to be killed, five or six fatally in
jured, and many painfully hurt. It
also feared that three men, who were
seen on tbe lake in a row boat before tbe
storm, were lost. There was also much
damage done to property. Tbe Wigwam
on tbe lake front, in which the demo
cratic convention is to be held, was badly
wrecked. About 8 o clock this afternoon
heavy clouds began to gather, and a few
minutes later a tornado swept across the
city from tbe northwest. It was accom
panied by terrific tbuuder and lightning
and torrents of rain and hail. The brick
cottage at 133G Whipple street was de
molished. 2 vear-old Emma Klima was
instantly killed, and her mother and
another child badly injured. A small
circus was showing at Twenty-eighth
street and Wentwortb avenue. Many

bruises. Seventy five men were at work
in the big Democratic Wigwam. Tne

gave way and a bole was torn through
tbe canvas. The wind got under it, tbo
gay wires snapped like twine and an
instant later tbe great 00-foot center mast
tell with a crash, smashing through tbe
floor and crushing hundreds of chairs
An idea of the force of the wind may be
gleaned lrom the fact fiat a six-inch
timber was driven endwise through' a
box-car. Aimour's elevator, at Morgan
street and the river, was struck by light
ing and completely wrecked. Charles
Koberts, wbo was at worst iu the boiler-
room, was buried ln-nento tbe bricks and
UmDer, and his body was not recovered
until late tbis eveniDg. Tbe life-saving
station reports tbat three men, seen o a

for after it passed no sign of them was
to be seen in any direction.

Although Bill Nye, as a professional hu
monst, is not expected to aay serious things,
tbe following paragraph extracted from

pearls of common sense: "Oar wagon roads
throughout the .country are geuerally a dis
grace to civilization, and before we under

think there might be somethjnx in it.
Condon Globe: Within the last week two
discoveries of rather a ghastly nature were
made in this vicinity. YY bile nding tor cat
tle at the mouth of Ferry canyon, Messrs.
Ray Hensen.W. N. Brown and Geo. Schott
found the skeleton of a man, which from its
appearance, must bave been buried a num
ber of years. It was partly washed out ot
the bank by the water, and was of gigantic
proportions. Mr. Amon Hartman also dis
covered the skeleton of a man near his place
a couple of miles east of town. From its
appearance it probably had been imbedded
in the sand 15 or 20 years. A few Indian
relics were found with the bones, and the
supposition is tbat they are the remains of a
defunct red man. Dr. Nicklin went out
and procured several relics, and the most
important of which is a large skinning
knife. - .

Still another monopoly is brewing in the
consolidation of the western bituminous
I interests and the railroads connected
therewith. It remains to be seen whether
the vast body of the people who are to be

themselves and have a voice in this far
reaching scheme. If anyone doubts how
far-reaching this project is, let him ask bim
self the source of industrial power, mechan
ical propulsion, ot artificial light and heat,'
of cooking and smelting ore. It seemed to
be the aim of monopoly to fasten its grip
upon tbe absolutely indispensihle substances
of human comfort. Having refused to tol
erate political despotism, the American peo
ple should refuse to tolerate the. despotism
of wealth.
The educators of this country are justi

authority of the Catholic church baa im
plied a general indorsemtnt of our state

been until about a month ago in the employ
of Herman Seekamp, but whose uame we
could Lot learn, lies in a critical condition
at Condon, the result of injuries rsoeived
daring a quarrel with Henry Hawk Wednes- -day.
How it commenced or what the Quar
rel was about has not transpired, but it ap- :
pears the two men bad words several times
during the day, and were several times
parted by friends. - Finally Hawk, wbo is
very quarrelsome and pugnacious when in
drink, knocked the Dutchman down and
kicked him in the side and head. Tbe man
was so badly injured that he was unable to
riso, and soon became unconscious. He was '
carried into the county jtiland laid on a
bed, where he lay insensible for hours. Drs.
Hogan and Nicklin did all in their power
for the unfortunate man, and about mid-;
night he revived sufficiently to note his sur
roundings, and requested that ha be taken
to the hotel, as he did not like the thought
of ending his days in jail. Tni forenoon
be was a little better, but the doctors bays
small hopes ot his recovery. Hawk has

Pannoyer or Mitchell for President.
Uncle John Brookhoase is one of the old
est resilient iu Wasco county, as honest as
suulight, and thoroughly interested in the
dev. lopment of tbe resources of the Inland
Empire. For years he has farmed hi land
on Tygh ridge, and has always been success
ful iu raiding crops where it was possible.
Ho is a constant reader of current liter- .
to rp, and ha a fund of general information.
A reporter of the Timks-Mountainseb
called on Mr, Brookhouse and interrogated
bim regarding his choice of candidates on
the presidential ticket of tbe People'
party.
"With a good-natured smile he answered:
I am in favor of either Hon. Sylycster Pen
noyer or Hon. John H. Mitchell leading our .
forces in this campaign. The, former has
been a friend to the farmer in every act dur'
ing his public career, and Mr. Mitchell was
the first to take an active part in an open
Columbia river. He bst been the best
friend to the produoers of tha Inland Em
pire who ever occupied a teat in tha ball of
congress."
But, do you think that either could' be
elected witb the prestige the old parties al
ready possess in politics? queried our re
porter. Young man," laid Mr. Brookhouse,
'there is more between heaven and enrth
than is dreamed of in yonr philosophy,'
Tba people are becoming tired of politic
and politicians, and tbey are determined to
vote ibtelligently in November. : They are
no longer willing to be led by the nose like
dumb-driven cattle, bnt will vote freely as
American citizen should, snd when the re-
salt is counted next November there will be
more surprised politicians than at any pre
vious campaign. The people are 'in it,'
and if Pennoyer or Mitchell were nomi- "
nated, the Pacific coast will give them
ucb enthusiastic, support that it will
open the eyei of the east to the situation of
affairs."
Our reporter was powerless to convince
the old gentleman that a vote for the Peo
ple's candidate was literally thrown away,
and left him (till firmly convinced that .
Pennoyer or Mitchell should lead the re,
form movement in 1892. '
