JERRY SIMPSON has declined all chal-
lenges for political joint debates in Kansas,
on the ground that he is sought after by the
opposition as a drawing card.

THE feeling of the administration at this
juncture is voiced by Secretary of Agricul-
ture Rusk, who says: wisconsin will go
Republican, think, by one Of its old time
majorities. One OF the best known German
papers in the State, having a circulation OF
10000 is heartily supporting the Republican
National ticket. This is one evidence that
the Germans have not deserted the RepubH-
can party. A few may vote with the Demo
Gratis, but the great majority will remain
with the party of honest money. protection
and reciprocity. Ex-senator Spooner will
certainly Ge elected Governor. He is max
ing good fight, and the Republicans OF the
State are stirred up. Wisconsin can be safely
placed in the Republican column. Tie
abuse heaped upon General Weaver in the
Southern States will cause the Alliance
members to affiliate with the Republicans,
and the result will be Republican victory
in the Western, as well as the Northern
States. Kansas is all right, and so 70 Ne
braska. In fact l believe the Republican
party will win all along the line"
'tMillions for foreign manufacturers, but
not q cent for home industries would be
reasonable rendition of the tariff plank of
the Chicago platform.

The Blaine leaders are disturbed, and
are considering the advisabiiity of getting
up counter-demonstTatio
Senator Walcott was interviewed about
the meeting and said he saw the list, and
on it were the names of seven Colorado
delegates known to be for Blaine. The
Blaine men claim that the meeting was a
game Of bluff III the line with the Conk-
ling -Logan-Cameron tactics of 1880. If
they were not afraid of third candidate
why should they print and circulate
pamphlets of McKinley's speech at the
Chicago Convention of 1855, refusing the
use of his name, as it would not be hon
orable fidelity to John Sherman.
HARRISON MEN ENTHUsED.
The Harrison men at the Indiana head
quarters were wild with enthusiasm this
afternoon. They say their faith in the
Harrison boom has developed into posi-
tive knowledge. The following message
was sent to the White House.:
Il. w. RGiford, Washington, d. c.:
The Harrison delegates have just had a
meeting, presided over by Chauncey De-
pew. The roll call showed five to one
votes for the President, not counting the
contested seats. He will be nominated
ut the first opportunity to ballot.

When the roll-call was finished
mighty yell greeted the announcement of
Harrison's victory. The figures were
1853 ayes and 424 nays
The Presidents friends were jubilant
over the victory. Canes, hats, handker-
chiefs and anything that could be COB
bled were swung wildly in triumph,
while the dome seemed to tremble with
the terrific roars of applause.
An attempt to adjourn the convention
at this interesting juncture failed. The
hour proposed was 10 o'clock in the
morning, but it was decided by a sub
stantial majority to proceed with the
business OF the convention without de-
lay.
A motion to adopt the majority report
was carried.
AT II o'clock panic was narrowly
averted, the lights being shut off and
leaving the hall in practical darkness.
temporary lights were placed on the
speakers desk, and business was pro-
ceeded with.
Ex-Governor Foraker asked the unani-
nous consent Of the convention to the
reading OF the platform, as prepared l,y
the Committee on Resolutions. The pl;s-
form was adopted, Notwithstanding plea
from Hiscock to give the advocates of
the irrigation of arid lands in the West a
chance to be heard, and the convention
then adjourned until IL o'clock to-mor-

% Angels CAMP, June AT 1890 last
evening an alarm of fire was given. The
fine machine-shop of the Utica mine.
equipped with tools and machinery, was
already past saving and the hosting
works, seventy-five feet high, seemed a
mass OF flames. Within few minutes
three streams from two-inch hose We're
playing on the fire. Each of these had
pressure of 400 feet and had thrown water
when on trial nearly 300 feet In spite of
all OF them the whole plant would have
gone had they not turned on a monitor
dlscharging the water from fourteen
inch pipe, with 400 feet head, through
four-lnch nozzle. 1t began playing at
once on the seventy-five-foott tower ofthe
hosting works, and soon had the flames
under control. The oilhouse took fire
and the monitor did effective work at a
distance OF not less than 800 feet from
point of discharge. The other streams
seemed like boys play. AS the machine
shop was large and remarkably we'll
equipped the loss will probably exceed
$1,000.
At one time anxiety was shown for the
thirty or forty miners who were under
ground at the time, but they easily came
up the other shaft.
This property belongs to Hayward,
Hobart IL Lane, who own three smaller
mines in this locality, and employ about
200 men. Only small share of their
force will be thrown out of work, and
that for short time.
Great credit is due to the employees and
many citizens who worked vigorously at
risk of life to prevent further destruction
OF property.

TIE CONVENTION.
Proceedings of the Day and Night
Sessions.


Sessions.
MINNEAPoLIs, June S.-The day opened
bright and very warm as the morning
hours grew on. The people assembling
brought fans and the great audience
room became sea of waving palm leaves.
As heretofore, the leaders were choered
on their appearance, and finally there be-
came rivalry between the Blaine and
Harrison factions as TO which could greet
its prominent men the more noisily.
1t was nearly 1I:30 O'Clock when Chair
man Mckinley raped the convention to
order and announced that Rev. William
Brush, Chancellor of the University of
South Dakota, would offer prayer.
After prayer the Chairman called for
the report Of the Committee on Creden-
tials, and round Of applause greeted
Chairman Cogsweu as he arose. He an
nounced the committee was making dill
gent progress and asked for further time.
He said he hoped he would be able TO re-
port at s o'clock tonight.
Senator Cullom of Illinois presented a
resolution indorsing the Worlds Fair,
and recommending national appropria-
tion therefor. This was referred to the
Committee OH Resolutions.
The Illinois delegates introduced reso-
luton that all Grand Army men be per-
mitted to enter the hall and occupy the
seats vacant thirty minutes after the be-
ginning of the session. Referred to the
Committee on Rules.
Ex-Governor Sewell of New Jersey
moved a recess until s o'clock, pending
the report of the Committee on Creden-
tials.
The Harrison men objected to this, and
Lawson of New York demanded rising
vote.
Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio
were notably in favor of adjournment,
while Wisconsin,, Missouri and several
strongly Harrison States were opposed.
After careful count of heads Chairman
Mckinley said: "Ayes 4O7, noes 260, and
the convention concludes to adjourn un-
til O'Clock this evening" Applause ]

MINNEAPoLIs, June 9.-The Harrison
| leaders called a meeting suddenly to-day
| for O'Clock at Market Hall. Those not
in the confidence of the Harrison side
| were not invited and the press was not
admitted. 1t is claimed that 4O6 delegates
were present, and that these 4O6 repre-
sented altogether 5l1 delegates.
1t was decided to follow the lead of De-
pew.
Asked about the correctness of this
statement, one delegate declared that the
contest was practically ended.
Another delegate says the number
given is unreliable, because good MANY
were simply vouchsafed for by those
present.
The Blaine leaders promise to flank
this movement before morning, but how
| 1t can be done they do not explain.
1t is further said the Colorado delega-
ton, who are for Blaine, and eleven
Blaine men from Iowa were present at
the Market Hall meeting simply for the
purpose of seeing what was going to lie
done. This statement is made on the
REPRESENTATIVE.
The Blaine leaders point out that the
facility with which the news was given
out from the Harrison headquarters indi-
Gates that this was a clever game of bluff.
There is no doubt, however, that this is
the sensation Of the hour.
sit is bluff, cold and clammy. and
withal desperate bluff" said Chairman
Clarhson of the National Committee.
Here are two men," said be, "who
were in the Harrison caucus in Market
Hall, and l can pledge my word they
were both Blaine men, and L can prove it
by their personality" One was a colored
delegate from North Carolina, the other a
white Northern delegate.
Both sanctioned the remark made by
General Clarkson.
II can say to you," continued General
! Clarkson, "that we are not a bit dis
turbed over the alleged claim the Har-
rison people have sprung at this late hour.
am satisfied that one-third of the
men in Market Hall were Blaine dele
gates, and fifty or sixty of the delegates
were placed there by me- We knew of
the purpose of the Harrison people. and
prepared to meet it by having our people
| present, ana when the balloting comes in
the convention the truth OF my assertions
will be sustained"
Ex-senator Platt was of the same opip
ion as Clarkson regarding the Importance
of the Harrison gathering. He character
| lied it as of pow-wow, office-holding del
| egates and outsiders.
Ex-Governor Foraker also asserted it
was not an assembly of Harrison dele
gates, but gathering of shouters, many of
whom have no voice in the convention.
Senator Hiscock was emphatic that 42O
delegates were present, who pledged
| themselves for Harrison.
Following are among the list of votes
promised in the meeting: California s,
| Illinois 6. Indiana 30, Iowa 81, Montana
| /, Nebraska Ia, New York IS, Oregon 4.
South Dakota 4, Wisconsin 49, and wy
oming 5. Oregon is credited: with four
votes for Harrison, while the opposite is
asserted by the Blaine followers.
The Harrison people are greatly elated
over the effect of their meeting, and re-
| gard it as a trump card.
