For first termer Congressman Nc
Cleary is getting to the front rapidly.
He moves around among the depart
ments looking up district matters in a
business like manner; introduces bills
just as if they were youngsters about
to be logged, and cross-examines the
Silverites on the floor of the house just
like shrewd lawyer cross-examining
a. witness in a court room.

The first gun of Bill Merriam's Sen
atorial campaign has been fired. The
Pioneer Press, in which Bill holds a
considerable amount of stock, lauds
Bill for claiming to be the originator
of the scheme to handle the crops with
bank certificates. This is a "feeler"
thrown out to catch the farmers eye.
Bill is about as 'foxy" as you make
them.

JUDGE JAcKsoN's APPOINTMENT.
A Southern Paper Says That He Cannot Az

A Southern Paper Says That He Cannot Az
ford to Accept 1t.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Feb. 3.-The Chatta-
nooga Times Of this morning says:
But can Judge Jackson afford to accept
this appointment in the present situation? As
advised at the time of this writing we say, as
Judge Jackson's friend, most emphati-
cally, no. Judge Jackson's good name
and fame are already great and
have come to him as result Of his large and
noble manhood as well as of his ability. His
useful life has always been altogether
above the breath and atmosphere of
schemes, bargains or intrigues. That
petitions have been circulated for the past
few days since Justice Lamars death asking
his appointment by republicans cannot be de-
MED. This, with other well-grounded rumors
in this connection. justifes the belief freely
expressed that Judge Jackson's appointment is
not made on its merits.
Two reasons are assigned, first, that the
President desires to make a place for his
law partner and Attorney General, Mr..
Miller. who would be made Judge of
a circuit which takes in the field
of the Presidents law practice; second,
to get Judge Jackson out Of the way. so that
partisan use can be made of election machinery
and SO that republicans can be placed in all
Offices within the appointing power Of the cir
cult judge"

PIrTsBURa. Feb. 3.-The representatives of
the provisional government OF Hawaii, who are
endeavoring to dispossess Queen LiIiuokalani OF
what she claims to be her rights, passed through
Pittsburg on the Keystone express this morning
at $50 o'clock. Their train was over three
hours late. In the party were Lorrin Thurs
ton, chairman of the provisional committee;
Charles l.. Carter, Joseph Marsden, W. C.
Wilder and William Il. Castle. The party will
not reach Washington until this afternoon.
Mr. cLEaHoKN TWELVE HOURS AHEAD.
John NJ. Cleghorn of San Francisco. uncle of
Hawaiian throne, was not moro than twelve
hours ahead of the revolutionists. having passed
through Pit.sburg last night.
H. L. Brown of Minneapolis arrived from
Chicago on the same train. and having con-
versed with the distinguished gentlemen in the
Hawaiian party said to reporter: These
gentlemen are all Americans, las are many others
of the property owners in Honolulu. They
know their own interests are at stake and want
pure annexation with the United States.
From what learned think the queen is only
holding ont for what Americans would ask.
She is opposed to the encroachments of for
eigners and wants the island to belong to ma
tlNt-DOrn 1lhNaIa1S, or At ledst 10 tuOet WHO
have some native blood in their veins.
Chairman Thurston said that the greatest OBJ
lection TO the rule of the presentnominal queen
is that by her influence the lottery company
promised fOothold. The kingdom Is
badly in debt and the revenues from the lottery
were relied upon to pay all of the expenses of
the government. Mr.. Thurston claims that all
of the white residents resented the proposed
scheme and are determined to Illustrate it.
ARRIVED AT HARRISBURG.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. S.-The Keystone ex-
press over the Pennsylvania railroad, with the
Hawaiian commissioners on board arrived here

lani, who is hurrying to Washington to press
her claims to the throne, but declare she would
not be any more acceptable than the dethroned

POSITION OF THE TORIES.
They Will Oppose Hawaiian Annexation
by America.

LONDON, Feb. "a correspondent has had an
interview with Baron Henry de Worms, conserv-
alive member of parliament for the East Toxteth
division of Liverpool, and parliamentary under
secretary of the colonial Office in the late ad-
ininistration Of Lord Salisbury. Baron de
Worms is regarded as being thoroughly in the
confidence of the conservative leaders, especially
a. TO their foreign policy, subject with which
he il widely conyerrant.
In reply to inquiries Baron de Worms said
that he had long expected the troubles which
had broken out In Honolulu. He did not ap-
prove of the proposed annexation of Hawaii by
the United States. Americans. he said, had no
right to annex place thousands Of miles
distant from their own territory. He
considered the proper remedy FOR the Hawaiian
difficulties would be joint protectorate
similar TO the protectoraIe of Samoa. The
British and German population in Hawaii
dwarfed the American and hence they would
not allow the scream of the American eagle to
silence their claims. England should oppose
annexation and Germany would be sure to

FIRES IN JANUARY.
"The number of fire alarms for the month of
January surpassed all previous records, !" says
Chief Paris of the fire department in his
monthly report. There were in all a total of
forty alarms, entailing an estimated loss
of S106,365. covered by an insurance Of
S72.7s5. The report is interesting since it con-
tains detailed account of the 9th street fires.
In connection with the fire at Miller's paint
store Chief Paris says that the entire working
force of the department was in service and
there was absolutely no reserve for anything
and it was piece Of good luck that no other
fire occurred, as it would have taken a long
time to have taken up the frozen hose and re-
sponded.
