and Call Heifner . Traiter-New
shipping Commissioners.

The wrath of the Democratic workers
over the appointment of Capt. o'Toole, of
skagit county. to be register of the Seattle
land Office, which was confirmed by the
senate yesterday, remains undated, and
vengeance will be wreaked on those Demo
Gratis of King county who have aided him.
Ii is said that E. O. Graves denies he sup
ported o'Toole. and says he first adyo-
Gated Mcdonald and then Alderman
Brewer. In reply to this the faithful say
there was deaf by which Graves used his
influence to persuade Mcdonald TO get out
of the race in favor of 0'Toole, and that
Graves is to be rewarded by the appoint
ment of A. P. Hill as receiver. If that be
the case John Y. Terry, who is backed
by the city central committee, will be
turned down." The kids" are par
is member of that committee, bat who
is believed to have saved his own chances
of appointment to a Federal Office by en-
dorsing O'Tooie's candidacy, so as TO
make it appear that the central city COM
mittee is divided. The "kids" deny that
Crews is one of them. claiming that the
honor of being considered young politi-
cal goats is confined to Capt C. G. Heif-
ner. /. ID. Ross. Lee Hart. ]. +. McElroy
and Percy Rochester.
Capt. 0'TooIe's friends broke forth into
mingled indignation and joy last night as
the following dispatch from Mount Yer
non, Skagit county. indicates:
.MouSr VERNON. Aug 25-fSpecial. T.
The news of Can't. W. ID. 0'Toole's APP
pointment as register of the Seattle land
office was the signal for demonstration
har tS tne he hrrr al
arrangements are being made for man.
moth bonfire. and speeches will be made
by leaders of both the old political parties
ENDORSING the action of the powers that be
at Washington City. Capt. 0'Toole being
Skaglt county man. the people would
naturally feel jubiiant over his appoint
ment, but aside from this his friends here
include almost everybody in the county.
While there is no ill-wili felt toward Seat
tie, Skagit county people rejoice that
0'Toole was victorious in the face of the
opposition of every prominent Seattle
Democrat.
s'LATER-The demonstration is fairly on,
and great excitement prevails. The action
of c. G.. Heifner. secretary of the Seattle
board of public works. made enemies here
by his denunciation of Capt. 0'Toole. and
he has been burned in etiigy. A life-size
dummy labeled 'Heifner, the Iscariot,'
and 'IIeifner. the traducer. was hoisted
over the big bonfire and deyoured by the
angry flames"
When Heifner heard the news he said
he took nothing back. He considered
o'Toole an incompetent man for the
place. and that President Cleveland had
cast an unwarranted affront upon the
Democrats OF King county.
II say" he repeated. "that every Demo-
crat who supported any other than King
county man for this Office is traitor to
his party, and they are utterly wanting in
any regard for the interests of the party in
this city,"
