The caucus that Was held in Justice
Maybin's Office on the day Of the Coun-
tv convention last week took up the
matter Of granting the petition OF the
St. Luke's club, but took no for
nal action, though it seems to have
been the general understanding what
the vote would be, as is farther eriden-
ced by the way those voted who at
tended the Caucus. Or as one who was
there expressed it 'thc elbow touch all
along the line'' was given.

Col. Peter Rucker. If Columbia, TIE
organizer and leader for Tillmap in
Columbia two years ago and unit! re-
Gently, has come out in q card for chep-
pard. Among other things Col. Rucker
says:
IL have seen Mr.. Tilman and Mr..
Earle, but am Ike the fellow two years
ago, I have almost strained my eyes
out to see Mr.. Reform for the last two
years, but hpva never seen him yet"
And "Mr Reform" continues to grow

1t is really amusing to see Governor
Tillman hunting up the actions Of his
PREDECESSOR as an excuse for his own
shortcoming. He now brings up Coy.
Richardson's expense account and
points to it as an excuse for some Of his
own expenditures. is it possible that
our great refornler has got to come to
this. The Herald and News thought
that bis actions were not even to be
compared with those who had gone
before him. He, according to his own
statements, was to be the great re-
former, AMI it is 4 very poor excuse in
deed for him to say See what Rich
ardson did,

Mr.. Sigh should be more forgiving.
He should forget the little differences
between him<e}fa and Judge Pope in the
race CT 1883. Especially since they
have been in the sane political bed for
the past two years. II he cannot for
give it and forget it lie should he care

What has Governor Richardson eN-
penditures to do with Gov. Tillman's?
Grant for the sake of argument that
Gov. Richardson misappropriated
funds, which we do not believe for a
moment, that does not excuse Gov.
Tillman. This extraTagance is the
very thug that Gov. Tillnan was
going to cure. And if there is any
thing wrong IN Gov. Richardson's &C
counts, Gov. Tillman has been mex
cusably derelict in his duty not to have
brought it out and had it investigated
long ago.

1SIG uON UdS bS IouuC, do VIC u4i-
derstand them, the demands Of the
Alliance and the Oca?a platform,
alongside the platform Of the Third
party as adopted at the national con-
vention at Omaha, July +. Some Of
these demands are found in the Demo-
cratic platform, and it will be re-
membered that by vote of the Till
mantle majority in the May conven-
ton, the Ocala platform was adopted,
but the convention at the same time
pledged itself to abide the action Of
the National Democratic convention.
There is no material difference be-
tween the Ocala platform and the
Third party platform.
Now the question is can 4 man be a
Democrat and stand on the Ocaia plat
form, which is substantially the plat
form of the Third party. It seems to
US that to be a Democrat, it is not only
necessary to abide by the result of the
convention by supporting the nomi-
nees of the party, but he must also
stand on and uphold and support the
platform adopted by the Democratic
convention.
As We said before we Go not believe
that Messrs. Sigh and Pope have any
intention of leaving the Democratic
party and joining the Third party.
But is their position consistent? Can
q man stand on the platform Of the
Third party and still belong to the
Democratic party and vote and hold
office as Democrat? II he can, then
Mr.. Lester is wrong. T. he cannot,
and the Alliance demands and Ocaia
platform are the same as the Third
party platform, then these gentlemen
are, by their OWE statements, outside
the Democratic party. No Go not say
that they are for we do not know, ac-
cording to present interpretations,
what is really necessary to make one q
genuine Demociat. But it seems to
The Herald and News that if, accord
ing to our understanding Of this mat
ter, Messrs. Sigh and Pope by their
utterances are members Of the Third
party, then our State convention, or
rather those who adopted that plat
form in May, are also in the Third
party.
The Herald and News would not DO
either one OF these gentlemen the
slightest injustice or be in the least un-
fair to them. Nothing could be gained
by it and it is not our purpose to do
them wrong. Bat we fear that many
Of our people have not considered
where the advocacy oC the Ocala plat
form and Alliance demands III 4 poiiti-
cal party scnse leads 10, and We have
written this mitch more 10 show the
trend than any thing else.
We have 20 doubt many politicians
would go into the Third party if they
thought it was popular and they could
secure Office by it. The Alliance IS an
organization will ii ali PROBABILITY 90
to pieces because Of the fact that it has
been turned into = political party.
But enough. As we said Mr.. Lester
understands Ocaia platform and Third
party 70 be the same aud that is 10
doubt what ne means in his atlicavit.
Mr.. Sigh admits that he stands on the
Ocala platform. It is the same as the
Third party platform. Is Mr.. Sigh
in favor Of the Third party: He says
not. That is the distinction, but where
is the difference

A DISTINCTION WITHOUT \ DlFFEl'-
ESCE

The Herald and News does not be-
lieve that Mr.. Sigh and DR.. Pope nave
had any idea Of joining the Third party.
We believe that they expect and IL
tend to remain IN the Democratic
party. DR.. Pope opposed the idea OF .
Third party in the Alliance caucus ~
the State Convention.
We also believe that Mr.. Narce!lus
Lester is honest and sincere N what
he saws in his affidavit. As We under
stand Nr. Lester these gentlemen Gid
not use the word Third party in the
caucus in question, but said that they
stood on the Ocala platform and by the
Alliance demands and these Mr.. Les
ter construes to be synouomous with
Third party. That they stand on the
Ocala platform and by the Alliance de-
mands We presume neither Mr.. Sigh
nor DR.. Pope will deny. According to
to Mr.. Lester's way Of looking at it
that Is the same thing as standing by
the Third party. They make dis
tinction between the Ocala platform
and the Alliance demands, and the
Third party. Let rs see now what the
difference is:

WHAT MR., SLiGiI SAYS.


The Herald and News saw Mr.. Sigh
on Monday and asked him if he de-
sired to make statement. Heseemed
to be somewhat out Of humor about
the affidavit and very indignant that
his LOYALTY to the Democratic party
should be questioned by any one in
Newberry County, where his life has
been spent and his record made. He
said he had always been true to the
Democracy aud had used bis best
efforts to keep down anything like a
Third party movement in Newberry
County and lie felt that his efforts had
been Instrumental very largely to this
end. AS to Mr.. Lester's affidavit be
said his friends had advised him not
to notice it, but he would discuss the
matter on the stump and he felt he
could fully vindicate his position be-
fore the people. He continued, how
ever, as follows: Mr.. Keitt was dis
cussing his resolution and in reply to
him l just got up and said the time
has not yet come for such action as ad-
vocated by Mr.. Keitt, and it is possibly
fl ON that expression that Mr.. Lester
bases his affidavit. I said we must
stand by the Democratic party. am
in sympathy with the Alliance de-
nands. but have taken the position
that We must get those demands
through the Democratic party and not
through the Peoples or Third party"
Mr.. Sigh also referred to his position
in the County Convention here last
week, which was reported i'll The
Herald and News, as evidence of his
allegiance to Democracy. He said
also: "Mr. keitt will give an affidavit
that in all my correspondence with
him | have advised allegiance to the
Democratic party and opposed the idea
Of a Third party"
WHAT DIR. POPE SAYS.
\ representative of The Ncr:lA and
News also called on DR.. Pope and asked
if he had anything 10 say. He said:
II vii; not take any notice of it. 1t IS
so ridiculous. Everybody knows thai;
I fought the Third party Resolutions III
tie Alliance caucus in May, at Colum-
bia, and | stand Just the same now"
DR.. Pope also said, however, that
Mr.. Keitt wanted the meeting in Trial
Justice Maybin's office to adopt some
resolutions in favor of the Ocala plat
form to be presented to the County
Convention in May, but he opposed
the resolutions because, although he
was in favor Of the Ocala platform, he
did not think it fair to adopt measures
which many Of their friends in the
Pofnr,n nartv did not endorse.

MT. Vernon Damaged Fifty Thousand
Dollars by tho Freshet

Mr.. VERNON, Nov. 2l.-TSpecial. THE
Skagit river is falling rapidly today, the
water being fully five feet lower than yes
terday. Danger to property is now en-
tirely over and no more destruction is
feared from this flood. The total damage
done by the torrent has not been footed
up. but it will reach thousands of dollars.
The half completed bridge pier at this
point was swept entirely away. About
sixty piles had been driven, and about 200
tons of rock had been piled on the protec-
ton pier. The high water, however, raised
it up, and after an immense jam had
formed carried it away, together with
every vestige of several months
work OF large crew of men. A
big scow was also swept away to
the Sound; the ferry boat also went. The
damage TO the bridge and the loss of the
scow will probably be 5000. The whole
southern part of Mount Vernon was
flooded, and people were going about in
boats and on RATS. The furnaces in the
shingle mill were ali in water and the city
was in darkness, because the electric light
works were under water. The dyke below
the town broke and flooded IL, 900 acres or
more of flats. reaching to Stanwood.
A big washout is reported between here
and Stanwood. and no trains have been
through on the Great Northern since FRI
day. A boom of logs belonging to A.
Ford was swept away. entailing loss Of
$4,000. Dennis Storrs, across the river,
had large warehouse swept away. He
estimated his loss at $4,000 A number of
cows were drowned above town, and all
the shingle and lumber mills lost heavily
from material being swept away. The
steamer Indiana arrived from Sank today

farmers in the surrounding country to
clear much land by floating off loose logs
and ssumps. The dwelling houses and
other buildings in South Snohomish are
still under water. nearly to the roofs in
many instances.
The Great Northern jam is dotted
thickly with the carcasses of drowned cat
tie and horses from the inundated stock
farms of the upper region. Much more
drowned stock can be seen all along the
lines of the Great Northern and Lake
Shore d Eastern railways, especially along
the latter. Notwithstanding that the
Great Northern engineers were confident
that the fills Of that road across the bottom
lands were above high water mark. the
track on the south side of the river here
was twelve inches under water and the
roadbed at Fern Bluff was covered still
deeper.
The Everett & Monte Cristo road, which
has been under rapid construction for the
past nine months, suffered equally, several
washout occurring on the line between
Hartford and the canyon, where the track
has been several inches under water for
several days. owing to the overflow of the
Stillaguamish river.
The oldest inhabitants in the county say
there has not been so high freshet in
twenty years. Frequent views of the Cas-
cade range here. permitted by occasional
streaks of clear sky, show them to be still
covered by snow. The weather has now
turned colder and the flood will prob
ably recede without further serious dam
