tion by THE NEWS representative, no

Gratis were jubilnnt, expecting they would
be able to elect their candidate, John Il.
Hawkins, and IL the story is not true,
Hawkins chances are very fair. III

but the better element In the party the bus
iness men will all vote for Alderman Lans-
inc. The opponents of MIR. Lansing claim
that during his term In tie Board but
very little improvements have been
made in the ward. On tho other
nand the friends OF Mr.. Lansing
claim that 81 u per cent. of the entire city
appropriation for the past year was laid
out on the Second Ward. This is saying a
great deal, and yet upon investigation IL
was found to be true.

Apropos OF the increasing tendency on
the part of men TO utilize the trolley
cars rather than avail them
selves OF shanks' mare, never
mind how short the distance may be, one
man remarked 10 me this morning that he
never took n car unless he could get
seat, as, even assuming that walking was
not agreeable, as nothing could be more
disagreeable than standing up in
crowded car.
"And speaking OF that" said tho man,
"there's q man who always rides, never
gets on a car unless he can have q seat,
and he never walks down."
The person referred to was standing in
the doorway of drug store. He had an
eagle eye on the passing cars, crowded
with passengers.
"That man." pursued my friend, "is due
at his Office at 9 O'Clock and he comes out
of the house and stands on that door
way and waits for car with
n vacancy in it. He comes out of the
house early and usually manages to cap
ture a seat sooner or later"

what should like, and so have made up

years l have worked for half a
dozen concerns, and managed to get S22

that TO go TO that part of the world
would be likely TO cost some hundreds OF

enough for him. He then pulled out of
pocket of his handsome silk faced over

SPOKANE'S SHELTER
One Of the Largest Smelling Plants In
the Northwest to Be Built
at Spokane.
The STANDARD Oil Company Is Said
to Be at the Back Of the
Enterprise.

SPOKANE, June J3-Within the next
two months there will be large smelter
at this point. The steel rails for the
track are on the way from the east. The
new superintendent will arrive in few
days to take charge OF the works. Unless
all plans miscarry smoke will be pouring
out OF the huge chimney before Sept. J..
The negotiations have been guarded
with the greatest care and secrecy until
it is no longer possible to keep the fact
from the public. While the new smelter
great Standard Oil company it is under
stood that 1t will be controlled by that
great corporation. The Standard has
already made heavy purchases in the
northwest, and for time has had al
most undisputed control OF the lead
markets Of America. The smelter at
Everett, the Monte Christie mines, and
the railroad that taps them are but
minor features of the vast system
controlled by the great Stand.
ard Oil company. The expense Of
purchasing and operating the Spokane
smelter is but a petty item in the nc.
counts Of this the most powerful and
wealthiest corporation ever organised on
earth. II it proves Spokane to be 30
advantageously located as experts be-
lieve it to be, only a few months will
pass until another bigger plant will rise
beside it. Refineries and white lead
works will follow in due time. Parties
who know the most state that the ties
for the two miles of track which must
be laid are already under contract. The
steel rails are also reported to be on the
way, blocked by the washouts east Of
Spokane. The work Of preparing the
smelter for use can be performed in
three or four weeks. Arrangements for
the purchase of large part of the ore
needed are practically complete. There
are still few details as to the right Of
way, freight rates, ETC., to be decided
but these are only miner items.

SENATE AND HOUSE
The Republicans of the Senate At
tempt Sharp Game but Are
OutvO.ed.
In the House the Republican Minority
Make Howl Over Our Mer-
chant Marine.

WASHINGTON, June l2.-At the open
ing OF the senate today Chandler spoke
in favor of his resolution calling on the
secretary OF the treasury for all informa-
ton in his possession regarding the ex-
tent to which the "patron" system pre-
walls The resolution was adopted.
PETER offered an amendment to the
wool schedule of the tariff bill transfer
ring wool, hair Of camel, goat, alpaca,
and like animals to the dutiable list,
restoring the Mckinley classification but
scaling down the rates practically one
half. Under agreement the senate went
back to paragraph 9S, imposing duty
OF 40 per cent on spectacles and other
optical instruments. Hoar moved to
increase the rate to 60 per cent, the
present rate, and spoke in advocacy Of
the amendment.
This afternoon when only few SEN
ators were present Mitchell of Oregon
moved to indefinitely postpone the tariff
bill. Senators hurried from every corner
OF the building and tho motion was de-
feated % to %.
The republican minority OF the house
committee on merchant marine and fish
cries have submitted to the house a re-
port against the free shipping bill, in
troduced by Representative Fithian OF
Illinois, which the democratic faction OF
the committee has recommended to the
house. Representative Perkins of Iowa
was the author OF the report, and it also
bears the signatures Of Representatives
Gillette OF Massachusetts, and Philips OF
Pennsylvania. "The measure is more
fully entitled to designation as a bill to
destroy American ship building in the
interest Of foreign countries" said Per-
kins. The report from the majority is
wholly occupied in placing the worst
possible estimate upon the present con.
dition Of our merchant marine. The
minority are not disposed to accept 30
ment wholly on the darker side. The
majority wholly confine themselves to
the most discouraging view Of American
competitive efforts, and make this their
only excuse for the abandonment
Of the distinctive national policy which
bas been undisturbed through all the
successive changes Of the party and ad-
ministratiOns since initiation at the be-
ginning of our government. No attempt
to establish the passage of this bill into
law would prove helpful to the govern
ment of the United States or to the
shipping interests of it's citizens. The
proposition is for the unconditional sur
render to foreign powers, both the prof.
it's and safeguards involved in the main.
tainance of our independence as the
builder of own ships. That the adop'
ton of this course would prove highly
satisfactory to Great Britain and other
important marine powers need not be
questioned; that it will prove other than
humiliation to this republic, certain
disgrace and possible disaster may be
accepted as equally probable"
