BUCHANAN SPEAKS AT LAST.
He is Committed to Every One of the AL
lance Demands.

lie is Committed to Every One of the al
lance Demands.
The issue of The Toiler for the current
week, which was circulated yesterday,
says the Nashville American Of Wednes-
day, contains in its editorial columns the
following:
EDITOR ToILER- Carriers Creek sub-union
having membership OF 81 members and having
unanimously declared by resolution that we
would support no man for Office who does not in
dorse the principles of the Alliance, has request
ed me to ask you if Governor Buchanan stands
squaroly on the Alliance demands
J. B. JoICE, Secretary
IfGoyernor Buchanan had varied one iota from
the position he defended on the stump as pres-
dent of the State Alliance and as a candidate for
the gubematorial nomination The Toiler would
never have lent him its support for renomna-
ton. We are for these demands first, last, and
all the time, and will support no man who does
not indorse the same.-[Ed.
The foregoing article was shown to Gov
ernor Buchanan by an American reporter
yesterday afternoon. The governor read
it and returned the paper without word.
els that correct?" asked the reporter.
" Yes, sir"
"Do you mean that the editor OF the
Toiler truly represents your position?"
q" Yes, sir stand to-day just where |
stood before nay nomination. My posi-
ton is just the same as 1 announced in all
my speeches as president OF the Alliance.
l have never deviated one iota from the
principles enunciated on the stump in
fifty speeches while running for the nom
nation, After was nominated did not
say anything regarding the Alliance de-
mands because the platform didnot touch
upon them"
"Do understand, governor ,thatyouun-
qualifedly indorse the Ocala demands ?"
That is a question youhaye been ask
ing me for months and months. You
must find your answer in my speeches."
viii you support Judge Turney il he
is nominated?"
eff Judge Tuney fairly beats me before
a Democratic convention l shall most GER
tainly support him. That have always
declared"
II the Democratic convention should
adopt a platform condemning the Ocala
demands, would you stand on the plat
iorm?"
When the Democratic party in con-
vention assembled adopts platform, be-
lieving in majority rule, shall support
that platform"
But would you be willing to stand on
the platform as the nominee if it should
condemn the Ocala demands?"
81 think, replied the governor, show
ing some degree OF irritation, chat have
said enough to satisfy any reasonable
man"
81 ask the question, governor, in be-
hall OF a very large number Of the Demo-
Gratis Of the State, and l should like to
get definite response from you one way
or another"
81 think ! have said enough"

that the Democrats in the Alliance
will not be misled by MCDOWELL

LII there has ever been any doubt
in the minds of Democrats in the
Alliance as to where BUCHANAN
stands in his claims upon the Dem
ocratic party for a denomination to
the Office of Governor of Tennes-
see, all such doubts have been re-
moved by an interview Tuesday in
which the governor puts himself
publicly on record as being in favor
of the Ocala demands. There is
no longer any room on the fence;
you must array yourself either in
the Democratic party on a platform
consistent with the spirit Of the
Constitution, or subscribe yourself
to the declarations Of the Peoples
party, which demands anything
from Government control of pri-
vate property to a demand that the
Governmentpay the former owners
Of slaves liberated by the United
States during the civil way.

A Painter In Search of His Lost
Spouse.
pr heavens sake can you tell me where
TO fnd nv wife ?' shouted q frantic Ger
man TO Officer Thomas Labin and another
policeman who were standing at the corner
of Seventh and Harrison streets yesterday
afternoon.
Your wife! What's the matter with
her?" asked Labin.
why, she's gone, and I'll 60 crazy II
don't fiud her," he sobbed.
well, tell US all about It," was de-
manded.
You see" he resumed. II lived with my
wife at 10 Russ street. l am painter, and
three weeks ago | got job in San Rafael.
To-day | got back and went home ouly to
find that my wife had gone. The people
who occupied the other part of the house
made a row with her, and they refuse to
give me any information about her.
They will not give me the keys to my
rooms, and | don't know but she may be
dead inside, but they say she moved away.
What will do? I'll surely 60 crazy" and
the poor fellow seemed to be on the verge Of
insanity.
An examination of the premises showed
that the woman had moved, but where no
one would tell.
The man gave his name as Richard Daver-
kosen, and said that he had been married
four years and never had any trouble with
his WIFE
He was directed to report the matter to
the Chief OF Police, as he had been looking
all day for her and it was then late in the
afternoon.
The painter is young man, and says his
wife is about % years of age. They had no
children.

PAGAN GODS SCORCHED.
Half a Block Destroyed in
Chinatown.
LANDMARKS WIPED OUT.
The Hong Sing Josshouss and the Hong
Fer Low Restaurant Destroyed
by Fire.

A Chinese priest sat in charred chair in
the Hong Sing josshouse on Waverly place
yester day morning among a collection Of
demolished gods and dragons representing
good and evil.
The pagan locked out upon scene Of
ruin and destruction. He was on the third
story of a building the top of which had
been burned away. On each side of him,
from Waverly place to Dupont street. were
the burning remnants of eight buildings
which had been destroyed by fire a few
hours before.
The flames had crept up as far as the
iosshOuse and, after burning the roof, par
TALLY destroyed the gorgeous idols and
images OF the jOsshouse.
That is why the Chinese priest sat in the
charred chair and stOicaly contemplated
the destruction Of his deities.
The fire which caused the destruction
broke out about O'Clock in the morning in
the rear Of large three story building at
715 Dupont street.
The flames spread rapidly. the old rickety
structures burning like finder wood. Be-
fore they could be controlled eight build
ings had been burned to their foundations,
making the third large fire within the week,
again verifying the fremen's superstition

EIGHT YEARS In ALASKA.
Some of the Decisions About Tha
Country.


Country.
"ThIs Is my eighth year In Alaska" said
W. P. Mills, merchant Of Sitka, to CALL
reporter at the Lick House.
81 think what has impressed me most
concerning that country is the wrong i'm
preston in most peoples minds concern
Ing it.
sit is generally supposed TO be huge
block Of snow and glaciers.
"As a matter Of fact. it is almost tropi-
cal country, green all the year round, with
an annual rainfun Of eighty inches.
"Why, in climbing the mountains there
you have to wear rubbers as a protection
against mud.
'In Yakutat have bought five pounds Of
strawberries for cents, large, sweet fruit,
all growing wild.
1.-The natives live chiefly upon wild rice,
which grows in abundance all over the land.
1T has stalk about four inches long and
the grain is clustered In thick bunch at
the top. Itmakes highly nutritious food and
under cultivation there is no knowing what
enormous crops might be attained.
Il have found the Indians an industrious
people, but they are quite different to ORR
entails. ! on can't hire man to work under
81 a day. They are not driven to work be-
cause there is so much wild food to be got
there.
"Gold digging at Juneauis making steady
progress. but we are In a curious position.
II is difficult to say at present hat Alaskan
enterprise would pay best. 1t is not ex-
clusively a mineral country. Agriculture
would succeed very well once one got hold
OF the right things TO grow.
Personally | am satisfied with my eight
years residence We have been going
ahead slowly and steadily, and l prefer
that to a sudden boom and reactionary
collapse

very vivid impression Of the perils and
shoals of metropolitan life upon the Teten-

Spear siphoned this amount out Of
Droney's cash account by means of the lock

Chinese on his farm. 1t illustrated the ter
rible charge with cuts. II commented upon
the statement editoriallv and with Davis
elected pictured the possibility OF defeat OF
all anti-Chinese legislation. And to this
strait the enemy has come at last. III we
understand the facts in the case they are
these: Mr.. Davis ranch is In the hands OF
a lessee, and that lessee employs whatever
and whomsoever he pleases in carrying on
bis work. Mr. Davis has nothing to do with
it, neither one way nor the other. Ihere
is but one sentiment In California concern
ing the Chinese and the restrictive meas
ures adopted to keep them out, and Mr..
Davis entertains as much OF that as does
Mr.. Geary (wno employs Chinese help IN
his household) or any other reputable man.
