outside of this factional t1ght, horr mas a
,;+t1a family quarrel to settle. When Horn
!lyY -+ ~ Washington it seemed to be settled
tovonG doubt that if he was successful,
cs:orge Hudson would be his special deputy,
on nffice which pays $4,000 per annum.
SINCE his return, however, he has shown
6snosition TO ignore Hudson, whose friends
are hegi ming to get indignant.
I, a9 interview published in the Equator,
Denocrat few days ago Horn stated that
Hudson could have any position within his
off but that Hudson was too loyal re-
nubican to resign his position as county
clerk which would be a democratic victory,
MS Gov, Fleming would have to I'LL the
vacancy Hudson, in an interview psb-
lished Yesterday, states most emphatlcalIy
Il that Horr mas never offered him the special
deputyshlp, and that Whel ne dlo ne would
accept.
The democrats regard Horr's excuse for
the accompaniment of Hudson as lame,
and are of the opinion that Horn is a puppet
in the hands Of other parties whose wishes
he dare not thwart. The present deputy,
Mr.. Fogarty, has resigned aud the appoint
ment Will have to he made in few days
Much excitement prevails in political
circles by the suspension of Dean from
office by Gov. Fleming. Dean says that he
was removed upon charges manufactured
by Hon. E. O. Locke, aided and abetted by
p I. Knight. He doubts the power of the
governor to remove him without
trial, and SAYS that he intends to
carry his case to the supreme court. The
democrats are Indifferent to Deans re-
moval-most of them would prefer to see
him ia office. Then the northern republi-
cans who are daily preaching political
equality will have to take a dose of their
own medicine.
Recent advices from Havana to the Cuban
press of this city are to the effect that Gen.
Salamanca is trying to purify every branch
of the government He is very rigid in the
Il enforcement of the laws and bandits need
Il expect no mercy from him. Executions are
plentiful, and if the present policy is pur-
4 sued, Cu0a will soon be rid of crime. Most
all the manufactures have resumed work.
and our merchants are beginning to look
Il bright again.
u Key West has recently sustained a severe
d loss 10 the death of John White one of its
oldest and most respected citizens He was
d president of the John White Bank, named
after HIM and at the time of his death was
said to be worth about 100000. He was
u strong Baptist and short while before he
died signed cheek donating $4,000 for the
erection OF new church in this city. 1t is
already IN the course of construction and
Will be called the John White memorial.
