LANDAULET WILLIAMS.


He owes his support to the N. P. influence,
which had only to indicate its desires and
thus dictate his election, The appearance
of ex-Attorney General Williams, better
known as 'Landaulet" Williams, in
the Oregon fight recalls some
curious memories of that individual.
The landaulet from which the famous
sobriquet became attached to Attorney Gen.
eral Williams went to pieces like the dea-
cons enc horse shay, but at much earlier
age. Its appearance in this city was charged
to bribery, its disappearance was due to
revenge. A defaulting army paymaster
secured compromise of his large shortage.
His New York brokers presented this Ian
daulet as mark of gratitude for her hus-
bands official favors in the premises to
Mrs. Williams. 1t is said that she never
rode in it after the press began its ex-
posures, and as for williams himself he
never entered it at all. Finally
John V. Wright Central
Ohioan, interested in Virginia military
lands in that state, became eXasperated at
Williams for ruling against him in these
questionable claims. Wright was man of
saturnine disposition. and nursed anger.
He had become notorious as the assailant
of ex-Secretary Delano few years before,
the prevocatien being similar exception
taken to an official ruling. Williams in the
midst of public clamor ordered the landau
let to an auction stand for sale. Some gor-
geous mirrors that had been introduced into
the attorney generals Office were also
offered for sale. Wright bought the lot,
seemingly instigated to make the pur-
chase merely to acquire the means
Of exasperating Williams. After his
requirement. Wright procured four coal
black horses and the outfit became con-
stantly conspicuous upon the avenue. He
would invite friends to ride and then would
instruct the driver to pass the departments
of justice with all possible flourish. The
landaulet passed afterward into the hands
of local liveryman and was remodeled
into simpler vehicle. 1t then did service
as hack on the Washington streets. until
it came to the inevitable stage of weakness
and loose joints. 1t was then transferred
to farm in Virginia and disappears from
the annals.

mlJCee on the revision OF the constitution
and declaration of principles. The amend
ments proposed by the committee were
read and discussed, and upon motion the
report was laid over until the next meeting,
the committee being instructed to revise the
report and embody in it slch Of the sug-
gesxfons made during the evening as should
meet with their approval. The pro-
posed amendments touched on the follow
ing points among others: The basis of
representation, more regular attendance,
prison labor. the employment of children,
etc. y. w. Piper was elected recording
secretary and A. L. Robinson financial Sec
rotary. The election of trustees was laid
over until the next meeting. On motion of
MIR. Robinson the chair was instructed to
appoint committee of three to attend the
meetings of the council and report all mat
tiers OF interest to the organization. John
Fisher, George A. Lafayette and E. j. Jor-
dan were designated as the committee
Mr.. Lafayette called the attention of the
members to the question of the revision of
the statutes relating to tenants. He thought
that tenants, unable for the time to pay
their rent, should be protected from sum
mary eviction. On motion delegates were
instructed to bring the matter before their
respective unions for discussion.
The report from the Bricklayers' union
indicated work slack. The court house is
the only job of importance being pushed in
the city just now, and outside of that but
eight or ten members of the union are en-
ployed. A larger attendance is anticipated
at the next meeting and an Immediate re-
vival of interest in this central and
powerful organization is indicated. Among
the causes which have led to the late ebt
Of interest is the fact that this has been a
season Of prosperity. and during such times
there are fewer grievances to discuss and
fewer calls for agitation.

workmen have received far better pay than
those of other countries. What has been
the result as the prices? Competition at home
has already settled that as predicted
nom the start by the advocates of protec-
ton. We hear no more complaint in re-
grad to the cost of watches, for instance.
Twenty years ago Swiss watches were con-
sidered far superior to American, but now
you can buy one of the latter for $40 that is
far better than any Swiss watch that can
be purchased for double the amount To-
day watches can be had for one-third the
price asked for them soon after the protec-
tive duties were established to say nothing
of the improvement in workmanship which
has made them equal to any in the world.
In this country with its vast population
and extensive area it is impossible for any
one to have things his own way great
while after it becomes known that he has
something with money in it," If this in
stance of the watch manufacture does not
answer to establish the fact that protection
has been beneficial to us we will cite
another. You all remember when only Eng
lish steel goods had any reputation in Amer
lea. How is it to-day? We manufacture
for the English market. This is net all.

HoBBLED ANB MARRIED.
How q Cowboy Won a Re1uctal
and Struggling Bride.


North of this point $50 miles, writes a
Landes correspondent of the Chicago Trib-
une, lies the cattle country of the Big Horn
basin. On Owl creek few settlers have
gathered IN and formed the nucleus of what
in the next few years will be large and
prosperous farming community, but as yet
it is only the nucleus, and the sway of the
cowboy is regnant. Intelligence has just
reached here of the first wedding of the Sec
ton. 'Big Charley" has welded ''Meetutse
Nance" native sage-brush belle. The
bride and groom came seventy five miles on
horseback to the squire's. the former sitting
her broncho as firmly and sauarely as ''Big
Charley" and in exactly the same fashion.
When within few miles of the squire's
they met that functionary, surrounded by
some half dozen cowboys, and now the
fair bride turned FESTIVE and declared that
she did not propose to marry ''any man on
earth" But the boys were equal to the
occasion, and SO was the justice and the
groom. At short distance stood an empty
corral.
''Take her over to the corral, boys, and
put her in" said his honor.
''Meetutse Nance" made wild break for
the hills as she heard the order, but the
days Of her freedom were about over. She
was quickly run down, and, amid volley
of feminine sage-brush eloquence, the de-
lighted boys started her on the lope for the
corral. Reaching there Nance jumped
from her ''bronk" and tried to gain some
adjacent brush, but it was no go. How
ever. she fought vigorously and his honor
ordered: '.Hebble her. boys" The boys
were in ectasties. A pair of rawhide
hobbies were stripped from a ''cayuse's"
neck and their twist adjusted about the
sturdy ankles of the struggling bride. She
was conveyed into the corral, and his honor,
mounting the fence, babe the groom take
his place at her side and take her hand.
This done, his honor assumed the look of
dignifed importance called for by the occa-
sion, and said:
"sBig Charley and Meetutse Nance
YOU came into this corral single. now
pronounce you couple. Big Charley un-
hObble your wife"
But this big Charley" found it difficult
to do, and it was not until one Of the cow
boys had gently cast his lariat over the
nev-made wife that the husband was able
to turn the lady loose. Then the justice
called his boys together, and saying, Come
on, bows, we hain't no business here now"
led them away. One Of the boys looked
back, and the happy couple were busy un-
packing their camping outfit. and the
honeymoon had evidently begun.

SENATOR-ELECT HIPPLE-MITCHELL.
you have only to stop and look over her
photographs exhibited for sale. Among
those especially interesting Just now are
pair showing the faces of the two men, who
after long disappearance, recently came
to the surface in the senatorial struggle in
Oregon. s'Yes," she said as she proudly
exhibited photograph of Senator-elect
Mitchell. 81 know him very well. He is avery
good friend of mine. I used to tell him he
would come back to the senate, and sure
enough, he has. Yes, have a picture of
ex-Atterney General Williams, too. He
was friend of mine and a very nice man."
1t is an interesting pair of portraits. Es-
pecially interesting in Washington where
these two men are so well known. Ex-
Senator Mitchell, now senator-elect, is
well-known figure here. Since his term in
the senate few years ago he has been Wis
ible in the lobby constantly. He mas made
no cencealment of the fact that he was en-
ployed by the Northern Pacific Railroad
company as its paid attorney, and has
never hesitated to attack anything and
everything inimical to their interests. The
reputation which ne gained as chairman Of
the committee on public lands. when form
erly member of the senate, is spoken
of as anything but enviable. 1t
has made for him the greatest neto-
riety. The publication in Oregon just
prior to his election of love letters which he
is alleged to have written his wife's sister
was only companion piece to the numer-
Gus newspaper attacks which have been
made upon his personal character. He is
native of Pennsylvania, where his name
was John Nipple. His matrimonial career,
as the story goes, was a somewhat check
cred one, and he found it advisable on NOV
ing to Oregon to change his name. So he
added Mitchell, and became John 81.
Mitchell instead of John Ripple. He did
not apparently realize the effect of this IN
til after his election to the senate, for it
was during his first term in that body that
the Oregon legislature changed his name at
his own request from John Nipple to John
Ripple Mitchell.
Mitchell has been familiar figure in the
lobby ever since his disappearance from the
senate. He is tall, broad-shouldered fell
low, more than six feet high, with long
brown beard, rather pleasant face and
quiet habit. You always see him about the
corridors of the house and senate during the
session. and he makes no concealment Of
his connection with the Northern Pacific
road; of course it was that interest that
elected him to the senate this time, though
the idea that he was not the choice of the
Republicans Of the Oregon legislature is a
mistaken one. The Republicans
did not hold caucus. Had
they done so Mitchell would have been
nominated at once and would not have
needed any Democratic votes to elect bin.

Jones now comes forward as the newly
appointed consul at Callao and King brings
on his attack. 1t seems that the original
story for which the elder Jones was shot
in some way reflected on Kings birth, and
the assault on him by Jones is in reference
to the same thing. The people of the Fifth
district sympathized then with Liddell and
now with King, and the latter reflects the
public sentiment in his opposition to Jones'
appointment.
