There seems to be an extraordinary and never

the Capitol to know something Of the presi-
dental mind in connection with the looked for
appointment Of Secretary of War. More Of a
favorite than any of the possibilities mentioned
is ex-Gov. Cheney of New Hampshire. The
movement in his favor is a strong one,
but the persistent effort of its supporters
has as yet failed to secure from
the President anything that looks like the

Is Potter q Third Party Nan?


There is great deal of questioning
among the people generally as to
whether Senator PETER is in favor of
third party movement. Republicans
were fairly well pleased at his election,
because, they said, she is republican,
and a high protection republican at
that"
We are induced to believe that the SEN
ator is willing and anxious to lead the
alliance or peoples party into the re-
publican ranks. All that we have read
concerning his utterances would indi-
that much. a day or SO ago he was
asked concerning the result of the SEN
atorial election in Illinois, and in reply
ing he said:
why should I rejoice over the cleo.
tion of Palmer? l have no part nor
parcel in this democratic triumph. l
don't want my position politically mis-
| understood. I shall represent the
farmers alliance on the questions
affecting their immediate interests, but
on strictly party questions I shall vote
always with the republicans.

shock was felt certain distance OH, on
the other side of the street and caused
all eruption, which considered to be a
lie. Why did he not state that the ex-
plosive stuff was procured from our
''shebang" (they call it drug store), IN
the shape of rotten whisky and alcohol
which is sold there for all kinds of
sshorse medicine" and of which the
proprietor is also the manufacturer and
sole agent of other medicine. least too
low to mention in these columns). AS
far as Mr.. Hawthorn's reputation is
concerned, he does not need to go by a
pseudo name, but "Try" seems to have
no name at all, or he is SO low cast tina:
he is afraid to 60 by It.
In reply to bis So called saloons keep

I'm Union is Strength"

The Trans mississippi Commercial
Congress will convene at Denver, Col,
on May 10th. The object of the con-
gress is to unite the commercial inter-
ests of the states and territories in this
great natural division of our country.
There will be no political bearing
directly attached to the meeting, but,
like the congress to be held this month
at Kansas City, it will help to unite the
south and west, and will eventually
assist in political movement that will
free this section from the domineering
influences Of the eastern states. The
meeting at Galveston provided for the
basis of representation by the adoption
of the following.
REsoLvED-That the basis of repre-
sentation for future sessions of this con-
gress shall be: Thirty delegates al
large from each state and territory, to
be appointed by the governor thereof
one delegate from each county, to be
appointed by the county commissioners
thereof; one delegate from each city,
and one additional delegate for each
10, 900 or fraction thereof in excess o.
10, 900 of the population thereof, to be
appointed by the mayor thereof; ter
delegates from each board of trade
chamber of commerce or other CONNER
cial organization, to be selected by sucf
bodies as they may elect; that all rail
road companies operating west of the
Mississippi river shall be entitled to two
delegates each, and that they be earn
estly urged to be represented, to th'
end that a just understanding may b,
reached between the people and thu
great transportation lines of the ives
and southwest.
