EX-PRES1DFNT STEELE

He, Too, Jumps ON to MI. Longbottom
With Both Feet
To THE EDITOR: As former presi-
dent of the Farmers Mutual Fire In
surance Company of the Town of Vail,
l feel it my duty to reply to a com
munication from James Longbottom
which appeared in the GAZETTE re-
Gently, charging the proceedings OF
the annual meeting as being illegal.
In answer to this l will state that in
my opinion the charge of the secretary
meets with the general approval of
the members of the company. Mr.
Longbottom inquiries how did Stewart
become secretary. The same way in
which he was elected treasurer to
serve the last two terms. The objec-
tons that he was not a policy holder
at the time of his election was duly
considered and the fact that he held
an interest in property insured the
course was taken as meeting the in
tents of the law.
The insinuation that Gilbert and
Stewart put up slate and run things
generally speaks rather disparagingly
of those who composed the annual
meeting. lam convinced that the idea
of making change IN the secretary
ship did not originate with either Gil
bert or Stewart. l am willing to
plead guilty to this As president,
complaints reached me that commun-
ications made to the secretary did not
receive the prompt attention which
the nature of the business required

Mark went with the servant and re-

made toilet and then sauntered down
stairs. At the door of the parlor in
which Mrs. Fain and her daughter were
sitting, he paused, as if waiting for an
invitation to enter. This was given him,
but he did not stay long. For hot
blooded South Carolinian, he seemed not
to bear the heat well, and manifested a
desire to get out on to the veranda In
deed he had wholesome dread of the
light. Besides he desired to be where
he could converse with Laura.

Such reckless statements. nQnly goes
to prove that you are bound to ride
over every obstacle to get into Office.
You say in regard to the removal of
the secretarys Office from the town of
Vail: i will state that this point was
settled to Mr.. Longbottom' s expressed
satisfaction Now, the truth is, / did
not see that letter, but if what / was
told by those that did see it, is true,
the above statement is false as sin.
Now, l ask you to show that letter,
for l doubt your statement. Your own
father told me that the commissioners
answer was that he did not see aly-
thing in the law to prevent the Office
being moved out Of the town of Vail.
Neither do l see anything in the law
to prevent it from being moved. For
the same law that established the Sec
retary's Office in the town of Vail says
the articles of association may be
amended in every respect at any an
nual meeting of the members upon a
two-thirds vote of the members pres
eDt at such meeting Now l ask you
has that ever been brought up at any
meeting or has it been voted on at
any meeting? Now, sir, if you would
study our laws and incline your heart
towards truth and justice you would
not have SO much scurrilous language
at command. You say that this or
ganization when properly conducted
means saving of thousands of dol
lars to the farmers of the county. l
suppose, by that, you mean if you had
the running of it. Tojudge from what
you have been doing lately you are
not tit to run scavenger cart. You
have gone outside the truth in many
Of your statements but then you are a
member of the church. No, | must
take that back-I mean a member of
the steeple for a member of the
Church of God would not dare to make
such statements. You even dare to
offer me advice. / do not take advice
of evil doors. You should take that
yourself You remind me of the ac-
count of meeting that took place
long ago when the sons of God met
together and another person met with
them but he was not a member of
their company. They asked him how
he came there. He said by going to
and through in the earth and if you
will read the passage you will see that
his object was to clean out poor old
Job. And he succeeded too we'll for
time, but read the sequel and you
will see that Satan, the plotter. was
defeated at last. Andrew, / want you
to have the contents of that letter pub
lished and also answer these questions
that / have asked you honestly. If
-you do 50 IQuE Qkp answers will proye
you to be vile man.
The interests of the intelligent
farmers. holding policies in the COM

victory at Last.

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 25.-In the su-
preme court this morning. Chief Justice
Horton rendered a decision, Justice
johnson concurring, and Justice Allen,
populist, dissenting, which sustained
the Douglass, or republican house, as
the legal and constitutional house of
representatives of Kansas legislature,
and incidentally declared the populists
had no standing. The decision was on
the case known as the Gum habeas cor
pus case. The republican house caused
James G. Gum to be subpen@d to testify
in the contested election case. Gum
ignored the summons, claiming the re-
publican house was not the constitution
ally organized house of representatives.
The republican house ordered its SER
geant-at-arms to arrest Gum and take
him before the bar of the house to re-
'ceive punishment for contempt. Gum
at once commenced habeas corpus pro-
ceedings in the supreme court. In the
decision today the court denied the ap-
plication for the writ, deciding the re-
publican house was legally and consti-
tutionally organized, and that it had the
right and power 10 enforce its mandates.

THE TREATY IS DEAD
At Least There Will Be No Action This
Session.
THIS is RELUCTANTLY CONCEDED
The senate's Action Taken as an In
dicatiou That the Treaty Will
Be Shelved,
THIS IS RELUCTANTLY CONCEDED

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Hawaiian
treaty is thought to be dead for this ses-
sion. This is reluctantly conceded even
by its friends. The action of the senate
today in refusing to go into executive
session, though the action doubtless had
some reference to Hanchett's circuit
judge nomination, is also accepted as
conclusive indication that the treaty
would be shelved for the remainder of
the session. The treaty matter can, of
course. be taken up in the extra session,
which will convene Immediately after
the present congress dies, but unless
some marked change occurs, there is be-
lieved to be no prospect of action upon
it during the life of the present admins
tration. A possible knowledge of its
disposition on the part of the senate had
reflex influence on the action of the
house. There was to have been a meet
ing of the ways and means committee of
the house today to consider the resolu-
ton, but it did not take place. One re-
publican committeeman said his COL
leagues had united against the resolu-
ton. He predicted the resolution would
be permitted to fall to the ground. The
democratic members of the committee
are still examining the subject, but it
doessnot seem likely the resolution will

Pooling Contracts Void.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. 25.-Today in the
United States circuit court an important
decision was rendered in the case of the
Central trust company, of New York, ct
al, versus the Wabash, st. Louis & Pa
cific Railway company ct al. It came
before the court in the shape of an inter
vening petition OF the Milwaukee & st.
Paul against the receivership, to obtain
possession of certain profits which were
accrued to them in a combination OF
railroads under contract. Judge Thayer
decided against the petitioners on their
first maintenance, holding that pooling
contracts are void, because opposed to
public policy, and also against them on
their second because the partnership
issue revolved entirely about the ques-
tion of pooling.

Ward Republican Club, at meeting
last night, adopted resolution to take
up popular subscription for Governor
Mckinley and appointed a committee to
circulate it. No one is to contribute

it and a large majority of those ap-
preached today contributed promptly.

paired out of the general fund. The
county court is to apportion the road
taxes to the road districts, and the super
visors expend them under its surveill-
ance. County roadmasters, where they
exist, do this work, and must file a re-
port on opening proposed roads before
they can be located. This is the only
section of the law affected.
Senator Huston's fire-arm act, which

loaded or empty, at or toward another
person, except in self-defense, on pain of
$40 to $500 fine or ten days to six
months imprisonment, or both.
Senator Weatherford's school district
bill merely reproduces the existing stat
ute, except that it substitutes the word
s'four' for "ten," thus extending the
operation of the law to towns of 1000
inhabitants. The arrangement is that
such towns must consist of one school
district with boundaries identical, ex-
cept that any portions of a district pre-
viously not in the city limits is to con-
tinue in the district.

Democrats win Resort to Cloturo.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-After de-
nouncing the republicans for two years
the democrats are to go back on their
record and resort to cloture. They will
confine it to the sundry civil bill for tho
present, because it is upon that bill the
tilibusterers are blocking legislation.
1t will cause merry row, but the demo-
Gratis realize that something must be
done to get the appropriation bills
through.
