Rock Island trick to kill our town, and .

city. Is means contention and strife
among ourselves. while the north town
people deal out deeds to lots taken from
from the Indian allotment; nothing in the

Mr. Geo. i Neal has been re-

Huntington for Mayor, and that he
viii be reelected we have not the
least doubt. But how the Hunting
ton correspondent could torture
Mr.. Meals denomination into be-

one thing we can't understand, and
what effect it will have upon the
Legislature in choosing a Senator,
we are unable to decipher. The
fellow who telegraphcd this nom
sense to the Wheeling Register
of Saturday, must have had wheels
in his head, or was trying to array
factions against one another, in the
hope of defeating Mr.. Neal. To
attempt to carry the Senatorial fight
into the city election of Hunting
ton should be frowued down by all
good Democrats.

VICTORIA, B. C., Feb. 3.-Latestnews
from Samoa is that scarcely had the
British waIships left ere rumors of disaf-
fiction We're again rife. The tause is
the proposed disarmament of natives in
the Thuinasaga district. The natives
here favor the proposal if Carried out
generally, but in other districts the ma
tiyes declare they will fight rather th,ln
have their war implements impounded
by any power through treaty or other
wise.
There is trouble brewing, which, it is
said, could have been avoided had men,
of-war straightway seized every warlike
weapon at the time the Matafa up ising
was suppressed. Consuls have warned
the disatfected Samoans that no nonsense
will be tolerated, and in few instances
apologies for the defiant tone employed
have been received at Apia. but the stu
alton is, nevertheless, serious.
Over 1000 deaths occurred in the
group, a large number ping from sick
ness superinduced by measles.

"If Senators, one and all, could but
realize what a great stumbling
block to the renewal of business
activity this tariff question is, they
would work night and day to hurry
the bill through. None of us will
ever live to see a perfect tariff bill
The most we can do is to aim in
the right direction and do what we
are going to do promptly" This is
the sense of the whole country

ing can go forward freely cannot
be borne forever. Let us have ar
