FURNISHING THE CORPSE.
THAT Is WHAT FLETCHER SAYS THE
REPUBLICANS HAVE DONE FOR
THE DEMOCRATS.
The "DOvs Of Peace" Scheme of TaDars
Concerted by the Gitlftlan Organ.

The GIlfllan organs, in their zeal to assure
their readers that the Republican congress
sional candidate has certain thing, do not
scruple to preyaricate. The following ap-
peared in the Tri6aaae yesterday under the
heading "The Dove of Peace:''
Sin conversation yesterday with Tribune
representive, the Hon. Loren Fletcher said
in substance: 81 am entirely satisfied with
the outcome of the county convention and
the ticket placed in nomination by it. So
far as l am concerned the war Is over and
am in favor Of doing everything that is hon.
orable to promote the integrity, harmony and
success Of the Republican party in this
locality. 1 am not disposed to place a
straw in the way of Mr.. Gillian as a candi-
date for congress and 1 shall take no other
attitude unless compelled to by the assault
of others. consider the action of the county
convention as complete vindication of my
position in demanding that our temporary
congressional quarrel should not be logged
into county politics. 1 am now for peace.
I think Mr.. Langdon also holds the same at
titude. 1t is time by-gones should be by
Cones"
SENATOR LANGDoN's VIEWS.
t'Mr Langdon said to Tribune reporter
yesterday that the action of the convention
on Tuesday had satisfied him and he was
out of politics for the time being, anyhow.
He was going east but would return in less
than month prepared to work hard for the
success Of the county ticket. When asked
if he would include the congressional ticket
in the above he declined to answer
A representative OF the GLOBE found Mr..
Fletcher last evening, and the following con-
versation ensued:
Reporter-Mr. Fletcher, didn't the Tribune
place you in a wrong light, this morning, on
the congressional fracas!
Mr.. Fletcher-To say the least, the Tribune
stretched the truth nightly.
R.-Well, what is your position?
Mr.. FL am not running a Democratic
campaign, but will say this much; we have
furnished you with the corpse, and If you
cannot bury it respectfully you are not as
sharp as you should be.
R.-You are right. But borrow no trouble,
the Democrats will erect fine, but cold,
stone monument in November, to the mem
ory Of defeated Republican congressman.
Mr.. Langdon is out Of the city and could
not be interviewed, but the reporter was told
| by many of Mr.. LIS warmest personal
friends that the war would be carried into
Africa. When Gil6llan declared his inten-
ton to run, and when Charley Johnson and
the central committee practically endorsed
the candidacy, Mr.. Langdon declared that
he should proceed to lay him (Gilhllan)
out,' and to believe that Mr.. Langdon
would back out before the fight is ended is
too improbable proposition to entertain for
a moment.
