SCRAMBLE FOR THE SEAT.
REPUBLICANS sCHEMINa TO CARRY
OUT A DEEP LAID PLOT.
Effort to Get Tate OFF the Track as Can
didate for Magistrate in Favor OF
Reichmann-Thos. Fleming Enters the
Arena-Mr. Hadden VIII Come In.

The alleged vacancy in the ranks OF the
Fourteenth district quota Of magistrates is
the cause OF anxious hustling.
Each party had but to candidates, max

raised that there were three Offices TO be
filed.
Now the question is, who comes in2
THE APPEAL yesterday gave the figures
OF Shaw and Tate, which left clear i'm
preston in favor OF Tate, provided it came
to a choice between the two. Reichmann,
who.made the race for magistrate from the
city at large, entered claim for the seat,
and that, too, without the country voters
OF the district having had any dig at him.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Reichmann, it is said,
will apply for his certificate this morning.
Mr.. Tate will do the same thing.
The showing yesterday in favor Of Mr..
Tate is believed to have raised the mis-.

very plainly that the first named three

THE JOINT LDA8E.

As to the reported joint lease of the

contract had yet been entered into, al.
though it had been considered. 1t is not
the old joint lease, which was annulled
over a year ago by the Union Pacific
people, but an entirely new proposition
on different terms. This has beer
under consideration, but so far as he has
been advised no definite action has beer
taken.
1t is unofficially stated to night, toe

THE RYAN SMELLING WORKS.
Preparations for the Erection Of the
New Plant.

Active preparations are being made
for the erection Of the Ryan smelling
works at Tacoma. The heavy timbers
for the building are piled on the ground
and 100000 out of 100000 brick
ordered from Vashon island, are already
OIL the wharf. The building will b.. gle
feet long and will contain four Root
blowers two furnaces 33x4S two re-
verbatory furnaces; Corliss engine
4Sx20; two boilers 60xl6. The main
stack will be ninety feet high, twenty
eight feet square at the base, the walls
Of which will be FIVE and halt feet
thick at the base and eighteen inches at
the top. The works will have capacity
Of zoo tons per day, and will be equip.
ped to handle all kinds OF ore. The
machinery has all been ordered from
Frazier & Chalmers, Chicago, but it will
not be shipped until the company can
lay it down here on the grounds and are
ready to place it in position. The wharf
where the bricks are piled, runs out but
$50 feet, but will be extended at the
proper time to $50 feet at which point
vessels Of the heaviest draft may land
The reduction works will, when in
operation employ from 200 to 800 men.
The lead fux used will be procured from
the Hunter mine at Mullan in which
Messrs. Ryan, Louderback and others Of
the reduction works company are inter
ested. They want the smelser completed
just as quickly as possible and they
expect to have it SO by February or, al
the latest, March next. Sixty men are
at work now engaged in completing the
excavation, the cribbing and the founda
ton for the great stack.-Er.

Hen. j. j. Browne was called upon
for few remarks. Mr.. Browne believed
that the people of the territory should
labor as unit for admission. He
believed that if the people of the terri.
tory would show by their own acts that
they desird admission, the present
congress would grant an enabling act
He favored the annexation Of the Idaho
pan handle. A united effort on the part
of all the citizens would 10 bis opinion
prove successful.
7. G. Grifiths did not think. the plan
adopted on this occasion the most FEAST
BILE that could have been suggested, but
he was willing to aid any movement hav-
ing as its object the admission of the
territory. He believed the present con-
gress would admit the territory it the
matter were properly presented.
Colonel Feighan thought all the
| territories which have sufficient wealth
and population should be admitted. He
believed the pan handle should be an
nexed to Washington upon admission
He thought committee sent to Wash
ington to urge admission should accom-
plish much good.
Colonel Winston thought there was nc
possibility of the omnibus bill passing
the present congress. He considered
the chances favorable tor Washington
admission alone by the present congress
A committee Of citizens sent to The
national capital would no doubt be able
to accomplish good work for admission
At the conclusion of Colonel Winston,
remarks the meeting adjourned.

The First Sign

OF failing health, whether in the for1a Of
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in q
sense Of General WEAKNESS and Loss Of
Appetite, should suggest the use Of
Ayers Sarsaparills. This preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion and assimilation Of
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
Failing Health.
Ten years ago my health began to fail.
Twas troubled with distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre-
scribed by different physicians, but
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended me to try Ayers
Sarsaparilla, which did, and I am now
a. healthy and strong as ever. - mrs.
E. L. Williams, Alexandria. MINI.
I have used Ayers Sarsaparilla, In my
family, for Scrofula, and know, if It Ia
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. have
also prescribed it AZ tonic, as well as an
Alternative, ana must say tnab nOnebtly
believe it to be the best blood medicine
ever compounded.-W. F. Fowler, N, D.,
D. d. g., Greenvtile, Tenn.
= Dyspepsia Cured.
Il would be impossible for mo to do
scribe what / suffered from Indigestion
and Headache up to the time I began
taking Ayers Sarsaparilla. Twas under
the care Of various physicians, and tried
great many kinds OF medicines, but
never obtained more than temporary re-
lief. After taking Ayers Sarsaparilla
for short time, my headache disap-
peared, and my stomach performed its
duties more perfectly. To-day my
health Is completely restored. - Mary
HARLEY, Springfield, Mass.
I have been greatly benefited by tho
prompt use Of Ayers Sarsaparilla. It
tones and invigorates the system, regu-
lates the action of the digestive and
assinilative organs, and yitalizes the
blood. 1t is, without doubt, the most
reliable blood purifier yet discovered. -

Practical Cn-nnerntinn-

No one who knows anything about coop
GRAFTON in principle and practice disputes the
fact that it pays. A fresh and interesting
proof of this has just come to me. A young
grocery clerk in wholesale house found
himself out of job some time ago. He
lived in Harlem, in a neighborhood tenanted
chiefly by people of limited means like him
self Knowing the value of produce he had
often remarked to his wife ON the advance
price charged up town by purveyors of the
necessities of life, and when he found he had
nothing else TO occupy his time with he COM
menced to buy the family supplies down
town and carry them home in a basket. A
neighbor in the house suggested that he
should do the marketing for he' too, because
she fancied the goods lie purchased were bet
ter than those she got from her grocer and
butcher. She paid him the up town price for
them, so that he not only got his own sup
plies at bottom figures, but had the expense
OF bringing them up town more than paid
for.
This suggested an idea to him He made
out price list, charging AN advance on cost
and still less than the local scale secured the
support of some more neighbors and COM
menced to market for them daily in a wagon
that he hired by the month In this way no
got his own food supply for nothing Then
some of his customers proposed TO form a
regular association pay him salary for do,
ing the business and enjoy the benefit Of the
savings themselves, He readily agreed e.
this, and is now purveyor general TO some
twenty families, gets bigger salary THAI. he

A new plan for the rescue of shipwrecked
sailors, which it is thought is great i'm
provement on the inventions now employed,
has been proposed to Secretary Whitney by
Rear Admiral sAmmen. 1t consists of the
construction of what is called balsa, or a
float. The rear admiral suggests the follow
ing method Of launching them; "The head
sail should be hoisted so as to bring the wind
quarterly; oil bags would be thrown over
from each quarter. The railing at the stern
fitted for unshipping would be let down and
the launching skids put in place and the
balsa carried aft by eight men and lowered
with four on it. Then a rough car to fit in
the skids would be loaded with the helpless
persons and lowered to the balsa, be received
and placed, and the operation continued until
the boat has her load, then she would be cast
adrift, make a drag of her mast and sail,
throw overheard her oil bag, and the same
operation would be repeated until every one
was embarked. Then they should fasten to
each other in sections of iives." The balsa
consists of two casks, upon which a platform
is laid. In the casks are scuttles for slowing
provisions. A sufficient number of them to
carry a thousand people could, in the opinion
of the rear admiral, be carried on large
steamer without inconvenieuce--C Chicago

There has been much speculation as to how
the ancient Egyptians managed to erect their
enormous monoliths, sometimes 100 feet in
height and weighing hundreds of tons. An
interesting recent article in The Revue Scien-
tifque, by NJ. Arnaudeau, offers the explana-
ton that water was employed. Round the
obelsk, lying horizontally, with the base
toward the pedestal, was raised a circular
inclosure, OF height equal to that of the mon-
olith. This latter had pieces of wood or
other floats fitted to it, especially at the up
per part; so that when water was brought
into the inclosure the obelisk rose gradually
to the vertical, The process may be simply
initiated by introducing the end of screw
nail into piece of cork, putting it in basin
and tlen introducing water.-Frank Leslies.

HOW'S
YOUR LIVER :?

Is the oriental salutation,
knowing that good health
cannot exist without a
healthy liver. When the
liver is torpid the bowels
are sluggish and constipa-
ted, the food lies in the
stomach undigested, pois-
oning the blood; frequent
headache ensues; a feeling
of lassitude, dependency
and nervousness indicate
how the whole system is
deranged. Simmons Liver
