Nettie Cliford's Examination.

The preliminary examination of
Nettle Clifford, under arrest on sus.
picion of having poisoned George
Key, is not concluded.
The prosecution rested last evening,
at 5 O'Clock. This morning counsel
for the defense moved for the dis
charge of the prisoner on the ground
that the evidence was insufficient to
warrant holding her in custody.
The motion was argued by the Dis
trict Attorney, for the people, and by
Lyttleton Price, for the defense.
Probate Judge Parsons overruled
the motion, and the cause was con.
tinued until 10 o'clock tomorrow
when the testimony for the defense
will be heard.

DEMOCRATS AND TIKI TARIFF

The cri>i, in the Democratic part, on the
tariff question is soon to come. Morrison )
bill has been stripped at the advice of the
Democratic members of the Ways and
Means Committee of most of the free list,
and il is acknowledged that the remainder
of the free list will be sacrificed If it shall
seem necessary TO pass the 20 per cent re-
duction. Morrison SAYS it is not possible
for the opposition to defeat him. He speak $
as an enthusiast He has not made can

formidable than was expected. IL is organ

This opposition counts upon the entire
Republican vote and on fifty-fve Demo

fifty is the minimum Of Democratic strength.
Their calculations that not a Republican
vote will be cast for the Morrison bill will
probably prove true. II remains to be- seen
whether they have over estimated the Dem
ocratc strength The indications are that
they have not. Morrison thinks that by
keeping salt and lumber on the free list he
can secure the votes of Republicans in Iowa.

cure their meats, and lumber for houses and

past two wears the democrats have held CON
troll in Rockland by putting up what they
called citizens ticket. and the same dodge
was tried again this wear but has sgnallv
failed.
Lewiston also has been redeemed from
the list of democi 4Jie cities and this year
elects republican mayor by a majority of
