FIRST DISTRICT CAMPAIGN.
How 1t Will Be Conducted BY OPP
posing Congressional Candidates.

The campaign i'll the First district will
present some peculiar features. On one
side it will be conducted in a digniied,
clean. respectful manner; on the other with
buster. buncombe. bulldOZing and the free
use of money. Judge Wilson, if the pres,
ent plan is followed out. will have no assist
ance from outside speakers and very little
from those within the district. tie will
visit every county personally and make his
own presentation of his case in his own
fOrcible and convincing way. lie will de-
pend upon his own reputation and his rec
ord to make votes for him, and beyond the
speeches he will make-eXcept what Will be
done independently by the local county
candidates-there will be no especial effort
made The calm. deliberate Judgment of
the people viii be depended upon to choose
between the candidates, as to which will
best represent their interests at Washing
ton. On the other hand, Mr.. Lovely is
making arrangements to flood the district
with speakers, and conduct campaign
which will stir up the district to its very
center. He will go about with blaSs
bands, and his adherentS will burn

not been entirely made up, but it is PROM
ised that some sensational and highly inter
eSting features will be presented. 1t is
intended to bring most Of the Republican
big guns into the district during the can
vass and have them crate at every point
where there is possibility of votes being
made. Lovely and his friends realize the
magnitude of the detection from their own
party, and the speakers who will be im-
ported are to be utilized as whippers-in.
The idea is to make fierce party fight and
force all rocx !IrantS into the lines. by
force if necessary. 1t will be essentially
a bulldozng campaign. This is the only
chance that Lovely has to win, and he
hopes-by forcing the boilers back into the
ranks and controlling the saloon and labor
vote-to stem the tide which has set in
against him. In comparison with the clean
and reputable campaign which Judge VIII
son will make, Lovely's canvass will be a
circus and menagerie combined, with all
the animals escaped and roaming at large.
And yet it is sad TO think that, after all
this waste of time and energy and money,
he cannot win. q. d. +.

A GOOD CAPTURE.
Detective Hoy Captures a woman
Thought 10 be .sFence.''

Detective Hoy Captures a Woman
Thought 10 be a 'sFence.''
The mysterious burglaries of late in Min
neapolis are explained to a certain extent by
capture made by Detective Hoy yesterday.
About II o'clock yesterday morning he
brought into the lookup stylish young
woman. who came here from Chicago some
three months ago. Who she was could not
be learned. as Mr. Hoy refused to say any
thing in regard to tine case any further than
that she was deeply implicated in the mat
ter. 1t was learned from an outside source
that two men have been using her
as fence" and have disposed of
many hundreds of dollars worth of property
through her Among the things recovered
by Mr.. Hoy were most of the goods stolen
from the Lowry residence few nights
ago. The case was placed in Mr.. Hoy's
hands the morning after, and he immedi-
ate!y began looking into the antecedentS Of
the woman who is now in the station.
While Mr.. Hoy would say nothing as to
who the two men in the case are, it is gen
orally understood that they are thieves of
no mean order and will be arrested to-day.
This capture is looked upon as good one
by all who have heard OF it. The case was
a mysterious one and Mr.. Hoy certainly
deserves credit for bit Of very neat work.

WILSON AT ROCHESTER,.
His Speech Takes Well With the
Farmers OF OimSted.


ROCHESTER,, Sept 17.-The opening
speech of Judge Wilson last night
was one of the best efforts of his life
and has made him hosts of friends and sup
porteTs. Justice could not be done it by q
Geographic report. The delivery was re-
markab!y pleasant and effective and the
points made strong and telling. 1t is doubt
full if political meeting was ever held
where such deep interest was manifested.
The crowd was made up, to very large
extent. OF farmers, who were III town TO

their lives and are looked upon rs the bone
and Sinew of the farming pOpulatOn-ln-
telligent. earnest. thoughtful. honest, They
literally hung upon the words as they fell
easily and rapidly from the judges lips,
and when he made striking point, their
enthusiasm carried them into hearty APP
pause. Although the judge spoke at con-
siderable length hardly man left the hall
until he had concluded. 1t was a respect
full and intelligent audience upon whom
most profound and lasting impression was
made. The effort has been generally COM
mented upon by people Oh different shades
ester. There was no abuse of anybody; no
demagogism; no sophiStry; no appeal for
votes on any false issue. The Judge sim
p.v desired that the people should expect Of
him in future nothing that he had not done
in the past.
HIS LIFE WAS AN INDEX
of what course he should follow. 1t was
an open book to the people OF the First
district He did not believe there was all
issue of any consequence between the two
parties to-day, and the voters should unite
to select honest and capable men Tor the
Offices. He was an earnest believer in civil
service reform. and, if elected to congress,
he would not consent to turn faithful
capable Republican out of office simply to
let Democrat in. He did not believe in
such theory. To carry out the practice of
turning out the entire force of government
employees every time there is change OF
administration IS wrong, it Is monStrOuS.
The recital Of the judges record While
member OF the legislature was a most con-
vincing argument in his favor. lie showed
and it was, he said, on record in every
inStance-that he had always fought the
corporations, the railroads, the tax title
sharks, the insurance SchemerS, the land

ergieS to the service of the masses of the
people and the taxpayer, and i'll opposition
to the rich and the graspers who had de-

which checkmated these schemes were

OaEONE ArsGARkNE.
Questions Arising in Connection
with the New Law.

WASHINGTON, Sept 17.-Some manu-
facturers of oleomargarine have protested
to the treasury department againt the con-
struction placed by the internal revenue bu-
reau on the second section of the act regu-
latng the manufacture of that compound.
The law imposes a tax on ''oleO oil, neutral
and other articles of like nature tax of
the same amount as is imposed on oleOmar-
gari e. 1t appears that there are a number
of firms engaged in the manufacture of
OleOnlargarne whose business is to purchase
and combine various ingredients into the
marketable article. and if the component
materials are subject to tax. as has been
held by the revenue bureau, the result will
be- to compel these manufacturers to
PAY A DOUBLE TAX,
as they are also required by the law to
place stamps on the finished article when
compounded. 1t is also stated that certain
firms are making large quantities of what is
known as ''Oleo oil, which is sold and used
solely as lubricant for machinery. Ii the
strict construction already given to the law
by the department is adhered to. this mate
rial will also be subjected to the tax im-
posed on oleomargarine. The matter is
now under consideration by the internal
revenue bureau, ana 1t IS believed that
when Commissioner Miller returns the con-
structiOn that has been placed on the second
section of the act will be modified so as to
relieve this material of tax. Circulars have
been sent to all collectors requesting infor-
nation as to the number of oleomargarne
factories in each district the average pro-
duction and other information. with view
to adjusting the clerical force OF the depart
ment to meet the demands of the business
when the act shall 60 into effect.

THE SECOND CASE
THE ALASKA SEAL ISLANDS.
Special Agent Tingie Talks Regard
ing the DepreaatTOns BY BIRTHS In

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Speclal Agent
Tingle, of the treasury department, has re-
turned to this city FROM the seal islands OF
Alaska. He left Alaska shortly after the
seizures of foreign sealers had been made
by Capt. Able. In the case of the British
vessel. Onward, Mr.. TingIe says that the
master of the vessel admitted having filled
his catch of seals along the shores of the
islands. These predatory seaers, he says
make practice of stealing ashore under
cover OF flags and clubbing seals, which are
then tossed into boats and conveyed on
board ship to be skinned. Large numbers
of seals are also shot in the sea, and this
practice is particularly destructive from the
fact that three out of every four animals
sink and cannot be recovered. NOtWith-
standing these losses the agent says the seal
life is increasing with great rapldity. The
agent was not inclined TO discuss the legal
ity of the seizures already made, but stated
that law officer had been sent from San
Francisco to assist in the prosecution OF the
cases before the Sitka court.
