LOCAL POLITICS.
The Many Meetings Now Being Held In
This Section,

This Section.
The Republicans, in addition to their
house to house canvass, are sending out
great variety Of literature TO voters,
the documents taking all forms, and
containing all sorts OF statements and
wiId-eyed appeals to citizens to vote
with them at the coming election. To
workingmen fearful pleas are made TO
vote with the &. o. p. once more, and all
sorts OF existing wrongs will be righted,
and many of these epistles take the
form of little Dashboard tracts, contain
ing extracts from platforms, laws, etc.
One of the latest of these is addressed
to railroad men, and upon 1t are set
forth the various promises which the
President has made to the train men
and railroad men Of the country.
Tonight the first big Republican
mass meeting win be held at the Fifth
ward market house, when General
Sheridan, Of New York, will address
the voters. The Republican Escort
Club will probably conduct the speaker
to the scene of the festivities. The
Escort Club was out last night in full
uniform drill and showed up finely. As
General Sheridan has expressed his In
tention not to speak in open air, there
will likely be an adjournment to the
Grand Opera House after the people
have arrived. There will be quite
procession in the early evening.

CLAGGETT'S CLAIMS.
The Idaho Man Presents His Case
in the Senate.

in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Both the
vice president and the president
pro TEN. being absent at noon to-
day, the chair was occupied by Mr..
Harris. Among bills reported from
committees and placed on the calendar
were the following: Appropriating
s50O,0O0 for an additional flre-proof
building for the national museum.
Authorizing the purchase of a site for a
building for the accommodation of the
supreme court of the United States.
Mr.. Frye made statement for the in
formation of senators and of the public
in relation to the bill now pending in
the committee on commerce to carry
into effect certain recommendations of
the United States delegates to the In
ternational marine conference.
I The country might rest assured that
the committee on commerce would re-
port to the senate no bill changing or
affecting existing laws, unless that COM
mittee was fully satisfied by the evil
dence before it that such changes and
amendments ought to be made.
A conference was ordered in the
census bill. and Messrs. Hale, Allison
and Cockrell were appointed conferrees
on the part of the senate. The Joint
resolution to provide for an interna-
tional bimetallic argument having been
reached on the calendar, it was, on mo-
ton of Mr.. Sherman, laid over without
action.
The consideration of the Idaho cleo
ton case was resumed, and Mr.. Vance,
of the minority commi3tee. continued
his argument begun yesterday. in sup
port of the claim of Claggett. At the
close of Mr.. Vance's speech the confer
ence report on the census deficiency
bill was presented and agreed to; and q
Rbill was reported and placed on the cal
eadar appropriating $500, 600 for public
binding at Boise City, Idaho.

BLAKELEY, Mimi, Feb. 26.-J. Fl.
Johnson, the owner of tifty-barrel
flour mill here, and devotee of Farm
ers' Alliance doctrines. has created
good deal of comment in this'neighbor
hood by issuing letter to the farmers
urging them to organize Farmers AL
lance milling associations. He has
printed and circulated thousands of his
three-column leatiet, the burden OF
which is to show that the farmers of
the DakotaS and Minnesota have lost
S2S,000,00 on the wheat sold up to the
Sth of December, 1891, of this years
crop. He then proceeds to
show the farmers their folly
in not building their own
mills and thereby secure 81 bushel for
their wheat with ton of feed per 100
bushels, together with some minor adj
vantages. Any community that can de-
liver $4,000 bushels of wheat, he says,
can thereby keep fifty-barrel Monitor
mill running for year. and the mill
can be built for modest $1,000. That,
Mr.. johnson says, will secure 81 a bushel
for every bushel of wheat raised by the
shareholders. Mr.. johnson would allow
so cents barrel for the handling of the
flour and the agents he would send
abroad to dispose of it would be the
farmers sons.

taken up and Mr.. CIaggett, the con-
testant. was presented to the senate by
Mr.. Stewart, and recognized by the pre-
siding officer as entitled (under yester-
days resolution to address the senate
for two hours. Mr.. Claggett took
his stand at Mr.. Hale's desk
and slowly. distinctly and in a
clear, musical tone of voice,
began his speech. He thanked the sen
ate on behalf of the state which he rep
resented for the privilege extended to
him. not so much to present any. per-
Sonal claim as to Vindlcate the action of
the state of Idaho in holding a second
election in the month of February, 1891,
and sending him to the senate to repre-
sent that state. If there was nothing IN
the controversy except the mere queS-
ton as to whether the sitting member
or himself were entitled to the cOntro-
verted seat, he would not have ventured
to ask the privilege of presenting the
reasons why the controversy should be
determined in the manner reported by
the minority OF the committee.
1t was because there were matters i'm
yolved in the controversy compared
with which the personal fortunes of any
man were absolutely immaterial, that
the privilege had been solicited and had
been granted. The question involved
did not affect alone the state of Idaho.
1t not only affected that state, but it
afected vitality every state in the Union.
LII was the boast of tue American neo-
pie that they lived under a government
OF law, and If that were so, then it was
absolutely necessary that in all parts of
the common domain, and, above all. in
the senate, the highest and most CON
sentative legislative body to be found
on the earth, the laws should be yindi-
Gated and their substantial requirements
observed.
MIR: Claggett went Cd to discuss the
details OF the question, and to criticise
the majority report.
he was frequently interrupted by
questions. So much of his time was oc-
cupled listening to and replying to these
questions that the limit of time was, on
motion of Mr.. Vance, withdrawn. and
he was permitted to speak without any
time limitation. His argument appeared
TO interest senators very much and they
listened to it ION both sides of the cham
ber) with very close attention. There
was also large audience In the CALLER
les to listen to the speech. He created
general laughter when he wound up
with description of Mr.. Dubois cleo
ton tactics by saying that to use a
western phrase, the sitting member
was bound to ''get there, Eli"
After he had spoken about two hours,
but without finishing his speech, Mr..
Claggett yielded the floor and the Idaho
case went over without action. and after
a short executive session the senate adj
JOurned till Monday.

TOWNER THE SKIPPER.
His Latest Only One of a Series of
Disappearances.


Disappearance.
GRAND FORKS, n. D., Feb. 26.-Maj
S. q. Hamilton has returned from Chi
cago, where he went to assist Ill the
search of COL o. NJ. Towner. in which
he engaged until it became apparent
that Iowner had not met with foul
play. Maj. Hamilton has since been as
siSting the company to gather up the
loose end of the bu SlneSS unceremoni-
Ously left by the colonel The company
will carry out its plans about as origi-
nally intended. Maj. Hamilton affirms
that neither the company nor his family
have any knowledge of Towner's
whereabouts. Towner has had check
cred career, experiencing .vicissitudes
of fortunes from tidal waves of prosper
ity to inconveniently limited resources.
His first career as a North DakOtan
was ten years ago. when. as agent ana
manager of the Elk River Farm COM
pany, syndicate of st. Louis capital
lists, he secured tract of $4,000 acres of
government land near the present
tOwnsite of Larimore. Towner coloniZed
fifty negroes from st. Louis, who did
the presumption act" and proved up
claims, Towner furnishing the money.
He was the leading boomer of the Lari-
more Townsite company. Then. for
two years, he disappeared. Returning
unannounced in 1886, he operated in
Towner and McHenry counties, and the
latter's county seat, the town of Town
er. bears his name. He cut wide sWath.
and suddenly disappeared again. He
has since embarked in the Col. Sellers"
style in real estate speculation in Kan
Sas City, and mining and railrOading in
Oregon and Washington, where he was
engaged less than a year ago. The
probability is that he went south after
leaving Minneapolis, Jan. 30, and is be-
lieved to have emigrated beyond the
confines of the territory subject to the
Jurisdiction of the United States.

sist the passage of the Bland bill in the
way l have indicated as 1t is that OF
their faithful representatives here. The
caucus demonstrated that the passage
of the Bland bill will disrupt the Desa-
ocratic party as completely as did the
slavery question in 1860"
AS a matter of fact, it is generally
conceded tonight that the free coinage
question still rests with the COMMITTEES
on rules, where it was before the caucus
was called. This committee has not yet
had any summons to meet. The tariff
bill will come up in the housenext
week, and the silver men are insisting
that the Bland bill shall be definitely
fixed in the Democratic programme be-
fore discussion of the tariff is entered
upon. 1t is probable. therefore, that
the rules committee will meet between
now and Tuesday.

siderable excitement, and several de-
tectives are now at work upon it. Crow
