Murdered Idaho ex governor Steunenberg by dynamite at gate
The former Idaho governor Frank Steunenberg was killed Saturday evening at his Caldwell home when a dynamite blast exploded as his gate was opened. Police suspect a mob tied to the Coeur d Alene riots era, with Shoshone county offering a $10,000 reward for the murderers and state officials adding $5,000. The 1899 labor violence in Wardner and the Bunker Hill affair loom in the background, as authorities search for those responsible.
