A COMPROMISE
Proposed by Mr.. JOhnson-Will Leave
it to the Voters Of Elyria.

Hon. w, A. Braman-Dear Sir:-At the
suggestion Of large number OF Republi-
cans and in the interest of harmony, ad-
dress you this note We are both COM
petitors for the nomination as candidate
Tor congress in this fourteenth district,
lately formed, and composed OF six coun-
ties. In view of the fact that the only
lake port Of the district is within our
borders, it is important that Lorain county
should secure this nomination, II by any
honorable means II can be done. To advance
this end il would seem desirable, If found
practicable, 10 unite the delegation from
this county uDcn single candidate, as to
70 into the convention with divided del
egation would be an element OF weakness
not easily overcome. II would mean the
probable defeat of both. On the other
hand, united delegation would stand a
fair chance Of winning the prize.
With view of brin ging about this uni
ty and harmony of action. make you the
following proposition, You and have
lived in Elyria for more than twenty
years. During that time the Republicans
of Elyria have been our neighbors, having
the opportunity OF observing our incom'
ings and our oulgoings and arc fully TO-
formed us 10 who and what we are. They

votes are cast in your favor, | will retire
from the contest and do my best and urge
my friends 10 do their best to secure your
nomination. II the majority is in my
favor, you shall do likewise. make this
proposition because l believe 1t is fair to
us both, and because TO put an end to
strife will tend TO strengthen the party. l

know what it will be, but l do know that
If / cannot have The approval Of those who
know me best will not ask others TO sup
port me. know my friends throughout
the county will acquiesce lnSthis plan and
believe yours will. l make this propo-
sition public and invite you to do the
same with your answer. You control the
columns of newspaper and / shall ex-
pect your reply in its next issue. Fail

clined and shall govern myself according

Mr.. JOHNSON has made proposition tc
Mr.. Braman TO submit the matter TO the
Republicans ,of Elyria and let them de-
eide which one shall be candidate FOL

unfair, as |: would permit tive electors in

Investigating Frauds.

1t is probable that number of the i'm
porters Of dutiable goods who nave been
defrauding the government out of large
sums Of money will be soon placed in a
most unpleasant position. -Four Of the
heads of the treasury department have ar
rived from Washington during the past
week, and in quiet way have been con-
Quoting an investIgasion into the Liebes
Sumatra tobacco case, the Neuberger.
Reiss case, the fitting out If seal poachers
for Bering sea and a number of other
scandals.
The treasury agents who arrived last
week are Superintendent oil Special Agents
Tingle and his assistants Agents Mccoy
and Williams. With the assistance Of the
local agents, Evans and Noyes, they have
discovered sufficient evidence OF frauds to
warrant them in calling from Washington
a higher official Of the treasury depart
ment who arrived in the person Of Solicit
or.General W. P. Hepburn on Monday
night. The last named official, who ranks
second TO the secretary Of the treasury in
authority, was closeted two hours with
United States District Attorney Garter
yesterday afternoon. The arrival OF Tin.
gle, Mccoy and Williams and their quiet
maneuvering caused a feeling Of uneasl-
ness to pervade custom house circles, but
1t was nothing TO the excitement caused by
the knowledge that Hepburn was here.
1t Is apparent that the government has an
idea that this port offers rich field 10 the
Investigator, or such important men would
not be sent here.
1t IS exceedingly difficult 10 obhin In
formation as TO what the agents are doing,
but sufficient has been learned 70 Earan!
the statement thar Tingle is investigating
the Sumatra tobacco case, while Mccoy is
delving into the mysteries Of the Neu-
berger.R Relss smuggling, and similar
frauds, and Williams is looking after the
rumors that citizens Of San Francisco are
sending seal poschers to the northern sea
The duty Of Hepburn Is TO generally su-
pervise the work Of all three, and give
them legal advice. Every day since his
arrival here Tingle has been interviewing
the clerks of Appraiser Leavy regarding
the fraudulent importation of tobacco.
They were subjected TO a strict cross-ex-
animation, while the agent takes notes Of
their replies, which will be embodied in
the report and recommendation which he
will submit TO the secretary Of the treasu.
ry. From the persistency with which he
pursues his examination IL Is evident that
his labor is not In vain.
The four agents are considered to be the
very best detectives In the service Of the
government. Agent Tingle has held his
present position over twenty years. Their
movements are being watched with great
interest by the government employees here,
