the League--Traetion Com
pany Scored.

The braves Sof the AIinkakwa Club last
evening decided to bury their ~tomahawks
and resolved to smoke the pipe of peace
with the enemy, the G%reenville League Re-
publicanSClub. The members of Reuben
Simpsons tribe having washed the war
paint from their c~ountenances, the Republi-
can politics of the Celery district will be
conducted in a more serene manner, and the
fight which was to have taken place at the
next primary is off.
Although the Minkakwas decided to call a
truce they did not reconsider the resolution
expelling from membership all members of
the League, and as none of these members
sent In their designations at the meeting last
evening, their names will be taken from the
membership roll. The meeting, like all other
gatherings of the club of the same char
acter, was held behind closed doors, and re-
porters were not admitted.
Among the communications which were
read by the secretary was an invitation from
the League Club to attend the stag racket
which will be held under its auspices at the
Globe Hotel tomorrow evening. The read
ing of the invitation raused a lively dis
cussion on the row between the two organi-
cations. A number Of. members spoke on
the advisability of effectlng a settlement of
the difficulty, INC when the motion to ac-
the invitation was read it was carried unan-
imously. The resolutions adopted at the last
meeting Of the League were then read, and
the members who spoke in favoro f accept
ing the invitation made another appeal for
harmony. A motion was made that a com
mittee be appointed to visit the League at
the next regular meeting and declare the
war at an end. The motion was carried
unanimously and Chairman Reid appointed
Messrs. Michael Schultz, Jr., Major Arm
strong w. ] Burns on the committee.
The next meeting of the League will be
held before the stag racket tomorrow even

visit until the following meeting, as it is ex.
pected that several hours will be consumed
