STATE POLITICAL POINTERS.

The Washington Democrat, of Monte
sano, is to be turned into peoples party
organ.
The Sauk City Star thinks that Colonel
T. V. Eddy will undoubtedly be the choice
of the people for congressman this fall.
The P.-I. is at its old trick of abusing
prominent republicans. 1t calls H. w.
Fairweather THAT dreamer of iridescent
Dreams" etc.
The Port Angeles Tribune-Tim says
that either John r. Kinnear or Andrew f.
Burleigh, of Seattle, would make an excel
lent head for the republican state ticket
Senators Allen and Squire have voted
for free silver, and in doing so are not in
accord with the president or the republican
platform. They are wobblers like the P.-I.
The Blaine Journal says of S. q. Cos
grove for governor: HE is said to be a
desirable person in many ways and the re-
publicans feel confident of electing him if
he is placed in nomination by the conven-
ton"
Politics in this end of Okanogan county
are very quiet as yet, though as far as
heard from everyone in this region is solid
for the denomination and reelection of
Hon. John L. Wilson for congress.-Che-
Ian Falls Leader.
The Post-Intelligencer says Charles s..
Voorhees, is mentioned for governor and
that sit has been many moons since Mr..
Voorhees, has left the war-path, but tales
of his prowess are still told around the po-
litical camp-hres." Charles would have
been in obscurity to-day but for the treach-
cry of the P.-I. and certain Seattle repub-
icans.
Already there are a number of politicians
in Lincoln county who are scheming to
have the county divided next winter. They
propose to elect representatives and joint
senator who are favorable to such a scheme
and are laying their wires systematically.
Wilbur Register.
The Pennington Forum says: The Hon.
John L. Wilson has honorably earned a
few days of vacation from his untiring
labors at Washington, and the pin-headed
editors who are making a howl, will have
the consolation of seeing him renominated
and elected. The Forum also says of
Colonel Will Visscher: viii is a prince of
good fellows, and all that, but this poet,
orator and journalist racket has grown to
be somewhat ofa chestnut. Congress is no
place for an exhibition of three shows
under one canvas.

votes. He was returned to congress in 1885
by fusion of the greenback-labor and the
democratic parties in his district and was
reelected in 1886. Much of his energy, dur
ing the last two years in congress was di-
rected toward the opening of Oklahoma
territory, and, when it was finally opened,
he led the boomers in to settle the land and
aided them in the organization of their ter
ritorial government. After that event he
took but little part in public affairs outside
of Oklahoma until the Cincinnati confer
ence which resulted IN the formation of the
the peoples party. He was one of the
readiest debaters on the floor Of the house
while in congress. General Weaver re-

ST. PETERsBURe, July 5.-The cholera is
advancing toward Moscow, and it is pri-
vately reported that it has appeared on the
other side of Volga in Samaria. Only four
doctors volunteered to attend the patients
in the cholera hospitals, others being
compelled to do so. The hospitals are
totally inadequate to care for the numbers
sick. Medicines and disinfectants are
only obtainable at exorbitant prices the
streets being sprinkled with petroleum as
disinfectant. Affairs are badly mis-
managed. The cholera hospital is located
in the most populOus district in town.
Steamers have been withdrawn from the
Baton route on account of the epidemic.
Temporary hospitals are being erected
along the trans-Caucasian railway between
Baku and Tiflis. The Russian frontier is
closed against goods and passengers by
way of Ouzamanda except after months of
quarantine. Twenty new cases are re-
ported at Saratoska. The disease is spread
ing at Astrakan and reports of its appear
ance are received from elsewhere.
PARIS, July 5.-Dr. Proust, in q report of
the board of health on cholera in Caucasus
says the greatest vigilance will be neces .
sary if the cholera spreads to the shores of
the Black sea, as there is every prospect Of
the present epidemic following the course
the disease took in 1881 and 1847.
PARIS, July 5.-Fresh deaths from chol-
era have occurred in the suburbs. The

GUS and costly, and will keep the pleas
ant event fresh in their memory for
many years. The P. O. S. of A. band,
of Freeland, was also present and enter
tanned the company with several selec-
tions, making the occasion one of the
most delightful that has taken place in
Jeddo for some time. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hughes received many congratulations
during the evening.

and we predict that the crowd will be
greater than ever this year. Too much
good cannot be said of this organization,
as the funds derived from these ex.
cursions are converted into food and
clothing and distributed among the poor
without any regard to creed or natioi

an effort made to find the owner II
was advertised in the TRIBUNE on Mon

Mrs. Edmunds asked for the calf. Leh-
man would not return it without proof
that she owned it. This Mrs. Edmunds
could not do, as she never saw it. Leh-
man claimed 1925 for feeding and care
ing for it for eight days. This was also
refused. After hearing the evidence
Lehman was discharged. He still has

TWO FOOLS FIGHT.
Thoy PummeI Each other to Win the
Smiles of Wilkes-Barre Girl.

Patrick Calpin and John Lenahan, of
Sugar Notch, for the past eight months
have been paying attentions to har d.
some young lady of WillIes-Barre. TIE
rivals for the young lady's hand at fl j,
were sociable and friendly in the matter,
according to the NeaoSiecler, but as time
advanced both young men became i'll
fatuated with the maiden. When ap-
preached by either of her be.ux she
would tell him that the man that won
her hand had to prove himself hero.
Both of the lovers are workingmen
and never had any experience in tt
manly art, but when told by the young
girl that she wanted hero, both went
into training for the fight. Calpin was
under the care of John Conway, while
Michael Bratch rubbed down young
Lenahan and encouraged him in his eff
forts to win the hand of the young girl
he loved.
Friday night was set for the fight to
come off. At the appointed hour the
men were on the ground. There was
fair sized crowd gathered to witness the
mill and both men decided to postpone
the affair and the crowd dispersed
The affair was the talk of the town all
day Saturday. The men agreed to fight
the battle on Saturday night and after
dusk they, with only their seconds,
wended their way to the foot of the
mountain and there fought to see who
should go with the girl. Lenahan V as
the strongest of the two and it was evi-
dent from the start that he would win,
as he did, but not before Calpin put in
good fight and he was badly beaten be-
fore he gave up. Lenahan came off the
battle field victorious, but Calpin now
wants another chance at his opponent
in scientific battle, Marquis of Queens
bury rules to govern.
The young girl who is the cause of all
this trouble says they must fight it out
before she will decide on the man she
will 60 with. All the parties are well
known in Sugar Notch and the affair
created great deal of talk.
