The democrats make no secret of their
Willingness to take the chances OF forcing
an extra session in order to defeat the
election bill, and if that bill is passed by
the senate, predict, that from the day
it gets back to the house for concurrence
in the senate amendments, the house
will be the most turbulent legislative
body this country has ever seen. There
are democrats in the house willing to
take any and all risks to defeat this
measure, and there are some republicans
who secretly sympathize with them,
though openly voting against them

Frame, of Snohomish has queer idea
of joke. Atwood, he says. offered to
buy his vote. Although Atwood was
serious, Frame thought it all very funny.
If Frame had been man she would have
kicked Atwood out OF the room. If he
had been .knave, he would have
about it. The inevitable conclusion is
that among the democrats at Olympia
there is connecting link between a
complete knave and complete fool.

INAUGURAL BALL.
The New Armory Dedicated to Valor
and Beauty-Aberdeen Rifles, Co.
K, N. G. W., Score Their First
Brilliant Victory.
FAIR WOMEN AND BRAVE MEN.

The long looked for, the long talked of
has come and gone. The first great
achievement OF the Aberdeen Rifles is
now matter OF history. In the contest
between brass buttons and bright eyes
the future will tell which sex carried off
most of the trophies of war. just after
the battle honors seem evenly divided.
Tuesday night the beauty and chivalry
of Aberdeen and Chehalis county gath
cred at the new armory on Heron street
to dedicate to Mars, ut the hands-and
feet-of his full sister Terpsichore, the
splendid edifice raised in his honor.
The ball was held in the drill room,
and, though this room is 40x75 feet, it
was none too commodious for the many
merry-makers and pleased on-lookers.
The picture was beautiful kaleidoscope
made up Of shifting colors Of the beauti-
full dresses OF the ladies'; light and dark
blue, white and gold Of the uniforms, set
off by the handsome physique Of the gay
miAitaiye; the dots of white and black here
and there of the ''cits" This picture,
framed round with decorations of national
flags, evergreens and the open sesame to
all corners, Welcome" was pleasing to
look upon and more pleasing to it's makers.
When the music struck up the grand
march at 80. Mr.. Laidlaw and Mrs. G..
w. Stetson, of Coslnopolis, led off, and
were joined by a throng of one hundred
or more couples and made scene that
would have startled the fasteners rude
conception OF the wild west.
The Company found an eloquent and
graceful representative to welcome their
guests in the person Of w. B. McGerry,
who spoke well and forcibly Of the
patriotism of the sons of Washington,
who, in time of peace, took upon them
selves the study and practice of arms and
placed themselves under the command of
our government, and who could be trusted
to answer that governments call in time
OF need: in the name OF these he ex-
tended hearty and true welcome to all
present, and hoped their enjoyment
might be us complete as the satisfaction
of Company K in seeing such repre-
sentative gathering of men and women.
Light hearts and light feet kept time
to bright sparkling music until the time
came for more material enjoyment
To those who were not there, it might
seem the least bit common place to men,
ton such a thing as supper after what
had gone before, But it wasn't. For the
supper was poem. A poem that every
one fell into the meter and read Alright.
Visitors seated, then Aberdeenites gath
cred around the tables, and the tinkling
glasses, knives, forks, merry laughter
and happy voices set the meter to music.
All went home in the early morning,
and company KS first ball will be pleas
ant memory treasured up for many years
to come.

NO FREE SILVER.

Hon. Jerry Simpson Before the House
Coinage Committee The Committee
Against Free Coinage The Bill Prac-
tically Dead.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Congressman-
elect Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, repre-
senting the Farmers alliance, was the
last of the speakers before the house
coinage committee yesterday. He said
the farmers of the country demanded
and would insist on more money. He
advocated free coinage as one means to
this end, and also the subtreasury
scheme and the issuance of paper
money as other methods whereby more
money could be put in circulation. The
people demanded great deal more
money, and it was the duty of the gov
ernment to furnish it.
Mr.. Simpson said he did not care if
free coinage did cause silver to come to
the United States; he wished it would
come, and it could not come too soon.
for it would give the people more
money.
Within ten minutes from the time the
hearing was closed on the silver ques-
ton, at o'clock in the afternoon, the
members of the house coinage commit
tee had left the rooms of the ways and
means committee, in which the hear
ings had been conducted, and assembled
in the regular meeting room of the COM
mittee. There was practically no dis
cussion in committee and the members
proceeded promptly to voting.
The first vote taken was on the sem
ate bill for the free and unlimited coin
age of silver. On yea and nay vote it
was decided by majority of to to
report this bill to the house adversely
with recommendation that it should
not pass. The four members in the
minority were the old free coinage con-
tingent of the committee-Messrs. Car
ter of Montana and Bartine of Nevada,
and Bland of Missouri and
Williams of Illinois, democrats.

pleased with the situation, and Repre-
sentative Walker, of Massachusetts,,
predicted that the bill would never see
the light again in this congress

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS.
Killed His Father-In-Law.

PARIS, Feb. 1q.-Thomas McGhee shot
and instantly killed John Arron in a
quarrel Wednesday about noon, in the
northern part of Henry County, near
the Kentucky State line. The killing
seems to have grown out of a horse
trade. 1t is stated that some time ago
McGhee bought a horse from his brother
in-law, Jack Alexander, which McGhee
afterward claimed was unsound when
sold. He tried to prove his assertion
by John Arron, who is the father-in-law
of both men. Arron, however, would
not agree with him as to the unsound-
ness of the horse. This angered McGhee
so that he went home and abused his
wife, the old man, and the whole family
generally. His wife became frightened
and wrote for her father (Arron) to
come. He went to the house yesterday,
taking son with him. When he
reached the house McGhee warned him
not to enter. McGhee's wife and mother
also entreated him to stay out. Arron
picked up an iron poker, however, and
collaring McGhee, started in. McGhee
fired at him without result, the pistol
being knocked up by the women. He
then fired again, and the ball entered
Arron's body about the right shoulder,
causing instant death. McGhee mado
his escape.

CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-The band of Sioux
who arrived here on their return jour
ney from Washington to Pine Ridge left
for their destination last night.
Before leaving American Horse made
this significant declaration: 81 signed
the Sioux reservation ceding treaty, but
when | saw how the mouths of my peo-
pie were closed in Washington / told
the little chief Noble that l would be
no longer a leader of my people, but
would mingle with them as a warrior
in the ranks rather than lift my voice
again in behalf of the white man"
Louis Primeau, of the Standing Rock
agency and one of the interpreters of
the party, said: SIN view of the last
visit and the excitement of last fall,
know-and I am no alarmist-that In
the spring there will be trouble. At
horticultural hall, in Philadelphia,
where crowds were present to see the
Indians, the only chief who received
marked attention was Two Strike, who
is hostile and always has been hostile.
The people crowded around him, shook
his hand, showered cigarettes on him
and made the old fellow weary with
demands for a speech. The men
who have stood by the govern
ment for years saw this and
knew that they were ignored
because they were friendly. The effect
was bad and not only bad but lasting.
They speak OF it to-day among them
selves and wonder why the whites show
no appreciation of the men who have
practically ostracized themselves from
their kindred for the good of the whites
and what they believed was for the good
of their own race. 1 honestly believe
that the attention shown the actual
hostiles in the east to the ignoring of
the friendlies will work as much harm
as the little attention shown to both
bodies by the officials at Washington.
Neither friendly nor hostile is satisfied
by his treatment"

testimony in the case, caused the Com
