THE METHODS OF TAMMANY.

Organization, and not education !;
success, and not Improvement; victo-
rious war, and not glorious peace,
are presented as the supreme aims of
Tammany. The regiment is the
model for the Tammany primary,
and the six hundred charging down
the valley of death" is cited as an in
spring example for city politicians.
fellow-citizens in city affairs are not
according to their nature as so much
business to be done-the making and
care of streets, buildings and parks
or as so much discretion and trained
skill, to be exercised concerning
schools, police, grogshops and public
health, with all of which quarrel
some partisan factions can have no
relations but those of pernicious in
termeddling,-but of all these duties
aud relations are those of remorse-
less conflict, of partisan politics, and
hence of endless war between hostile
factions and camps. A more I'M
civilized, diabolic and detestable
theory of municipal prosperity and
morality-was never sketched. AS
we read this sketch and imagine the
great Indian chief Tammany. with
his paint and his feathers, leading his
tribe to battle, we can see tomahawks
cleaning between the lines and hear
the war-whoop in the distance. 1t
defends a despotism the King of
Dahomey might envy, and a perpetual
warfare over which the Yahoos and
Sioux whoop and dance for joy. 1t
would be unjust to say that there is
nothing but the didactic presenta-
ton of this theory of internal and
Unsuitable war. There is a variety
as great as in the hues of a zebra or
in the contents of a Bologna sausage.
That bumptious and audacious yet
specious and sopori6c oratory of
which Tammany has fountain,
everywhere 1ubricates the merciless
logic of the war-code. The spoils
system is defended in its most
despotic, repulsive, and vicious form.
"All the employees of the city govern
ment," says our chief, from the
mayor to the porter who makes his
fire, should be members of the Tam
many organization" Hence, every
poor laborer appealing for employ
ment, and every youth seeking a
clerkship, under the city, is without
hope if he has not sworn fealty to
Tammany, and we may add, paid
bride money to its treasury or its
leaders, Hon. Dorman B. Eaton, in
North American Review for March.

ClJlzens OF olympia:
l desire to call your attention once more
to the college proposition. Some are rest
ing easily under the delusion that the col
lege will be built whether the subsidy is
raised or not, and a few of those who so
believe are contemplate enough to refuse
to subscribe for that reason. To such let
me say: You are certainly mistaken, and
some day you will wake up and find that
suchls the case. The college will not be
built unless the subsidy is raised on or be
fore the 10Th of next month.
AT the present time l am offered 1900
acres OF land on Puget Sound near as pros
porous city and as large as Olympia, with
other advantages that far exceed those Of
Tered here, provided l will locate and un-
dertake to build my college there, | am
not required to put one dollar into the en-
GerprlSe except such as l can make out of
the land subsidy. The citizens also agree
to deliver the stone for the foundation free
OF cost and can also secure another thOus-
and acres of land adjacent to the site for
from six to ten dollars per acre. The site
itself is said to be in every way as fine as
the one have here. l have not seen the
site, but have promised to go and see it
next week or the week after
If the subsidy here is not raised at the
time stated l shall accept the best offer
can get elsewhere, and shall transfer nv
interests as fast as possible from Olympia
there, and shall take with me by reason of
special inducements all those now inter
ested in the present site. Moreover, shall
give to the one hundred persons who first
apply five acre tract in the vicinity of the
new site, and shall sell TO the second one
hundred ten acre tract at COST | shall
not locate at any new place with less than
three or four thousand acres of land, and
shall then try to build a new town, tribu-
tary to some larger city, characterized by
thrift and enterprise. With my experience
and hold upon Eastern people / can secure
the capital and population, also factories,
and labor giving enterprise. Now Judge
for yourselves whether the college will be
built at Olympia or not, if the citizens here
refuse to contribute $4,000.
do not make this statement as a bluff
or for the purpose of soaring anyone into
subscribing, but l make it that YOU NAV
act wisely, with a full knowledge of the
facts l will also say, that if the subsidy
IS not raised, it will be because no one can
be found who will circulate a subscription
paper; Almost everyone seems willing to
help, but almost no one has been asked.

TOO MUCH DYNAMITE
Cause of An Interesting Sensation
This Morning.

No Serious Damage but UOnsidera-
bic ExcItement---The Offender
Considered 1t a Big JOke---He
Was Blasting "A stump.
Shortly after 9 O'Clock this morning ter
rife explosion drew large number of peo-
pie to the corner of Washington and Fifth
streets.
report had been quickly circulated that
trunk had exploded, or more properly
speaking, something in the trunk had
blown up and scattered the trunk all over
half block. A woman in the center of
the street bending over the fragments of a
demoralized Saratoga confirmed the report,
but subsequent inquiry developed the fact
that it was not the trunk or the contents
thereof that had exploded. The trunk be-
longed to Linn Clark, who was moving
away from III Fifth street, to another resi-
dence on Tenth and Franklin streets. He
was loading his express wagon when the
explosion occurred. The horse took fright,
turned suddenly and dashed into a tree,
mashing one corner of the top and spilling
the trunk out upon the ground.
Many surmises and suggestions were ad-
Vanced as to the cause of the explosion.
Some said it was gun, while others de-
clared that 1t was caused by blasting. There
were also diversity of opinions as to the
direction from whence 1t came. The con-
census of opinion, however, was that it
came from Union street.
1T must have been somewhere in the
neighborhood Of the Olympia hotel" said
a hackman driving, looking like he had
barely escaped humiliation. "Such things
hadn't ought to be allowed
Chief Sayidge had heard the noise while
on Fourth street, and Immediately hast
tened to the place where the trunk had
been thrown out and exploded" "
He made few inquiries, looked solemn
and said be 'be hanged if he knew what it
could be-"
A boy among the bystanders said it was
caused by man blowing up a stump
some where just beyond Harris
by harry we will find out" said the
chief as he started off with a TRIBUNE re-
porter.
The scene of the explosion was located in
Mrs. Sylvester's front yard on Main street,
Just across from the Olympia hotel. In
compliance with request from Mrs Syl-
Vester, Henry Brown, who was doing
some general work about the house, had
undertaken to blow up an old and ponder
GUS stump with quantity of dynamite.
Il cut it up so it wouldn't hurt any
body" he said.
You have stirred up a big commotion
down town."
Have n I didn't think it sounded
very lOud.'
1t is needless to say that the stump was
well blown up.
When The TRIBUNE, man turned to
leave Henry inquired eagerly:
"Say, you aint gOin' to do nOthin' with
me air YEP l am no anarchist"
The whole affair soon passed away in a
good laugh, so far as the general public was
concerned, but Linn Clark made special in
quiry as to the whereabouts of the man who
was so reckless as to blow up a stump
with ton of dynamite. He wanted to
converse with him about that damaged ex-
press wagon and the "explOded trunk.n
