A PARTY PROMISE cannot be too
sacredly kept. If it Is made by a
state convention the state conven-
ton should be relied upon to un-
make il IL it is thought desirable to
reverse the decision Milwaukee
Telegraph.
Does this mean that the next re-
publican state convention should re-
cind the resolution of the conyen-
ton Of 1894 relative to state treasury
suits? In view of the violation Of
that resolution by the legislature and
state administration elected under
it, the next convention must take
some action-either declare Il change
of position by the party on the ques-
ton, or retire the administration
that has disregarded the party pledge.

Milwaukee Telegraph: The Ger
man editors who met in convention
at Stevens Point the other day, re-
solved that they would do what they
could to secure the repeal OF the
Sunday laws. That makes rs think
to ask this question: What would
the people Of Germany think If a
few thousands of Americans, who
had lived In Germany for q greater
OF less length of time, should take it
into their heads to demand the re-
peal Of German laws and the turn
ing down of German customs? We
imagine that the great German pop
uIation would make it exceedingly
rcd-hot for the Yankees who werc
not quite suited with the German
government and its customs.

VIVA. VIII am. ,r.r,s Record Re.

Bicycle racers, after reviewing the rec
ords created during last season, are specu-
lating as to where the one mile figures
will be placed this year. Racing authori-
ties in this country predict that, with such
men as johnson, Bald, Tyler, Sanger,
Titus and l. Callahan in harness. the one
milo track record will DO lowered to min
ute % seconds. When Willie Windle re-
duced the mile record to minutes 25 Sec
onds in 1890, and in the following year
lowered it to minutes 81 seconds the
performances were regarded as mar
velous. In England early in 1899, when
+. J. Osmond, the English champion,
rode n mile in minutes 10 seconds, ii
was not deemed possible to put the record
under two minutes. Now the system of
record breaking has been improved, and
while some remarkable one mile records
may be made upon special straightaway
courses this year it is the track record that
is interesting tho ma iority Of riders

confusion, debate and excitement on the
floor of the senate and in the galleries last

Rapid progress was made on the legiS
lative, executive and judicial appropria-
ton bill at the night session of the senate.
Mr.. Dubois of Iowa sought to strike ont
the appropriation for the Utah commission
and to provide that the suppression Of
higamy and polygamy hereafter be prose

bois urged that the poly gamous condition
OF Utah was thing Of the past, and that
the local authorities might well be intrlst.
ed with the affairs of the stare.
MIR. Faulkner of West Virginia, OF the
committee on territories in response to an
inquiry from Mr.. ManderSun, said it was
expected that Utah would become u state
by November next under the enabling act
heretofore polled. The Dubois amendment
was finally ruled out ON a point of order.

various forms OF elcCtiOneeriuG larceny, in
which he indicated that the then governor

MILTON GRIGGs' COAT
Discovered by Detectives in a
Pawn Shop.

Discovered by Detectives in a
Pawn Shop.
On the 18th day of last December an
otter oyercoat valued at $500, belonging
to c. Milton Griggs, of Griggs q Cooper,
was stolen from his house at 448 Laurel
avenue. The pawn shops we're visited
by the detectives. but no trace OF the
coat was found and no pawnbroker
turned in report OF having received II.
A few days later Pat Hill. the gentle
man gathered in Friday night charged
with stealing sleigh robes, was arrested
for the theft, but he denied 1t. Pawn
broker Hyman Fegelson, OF 50 East
Sixth street, was also closely questioned,
and he denied that he had ever received
the coat. so both men were set at liberty.
But yesterday afternoon Detectives
Enright and Sweeney found MT. GrlggS
otter coat in PaWnbrOker Fegelson S
place. They at once procured war
rant and arrested FegelS0n on the
charge of receiving stolen goods. Chief
of Detectives O'Connor says that there
is enough evidence to convict Pat Hill
of the theft, and also to implicate Har~
vey Holcamb, who has already been
bound over to the grand jury, charged
with snatching a pocketbook from
lady in front Of the Peoples church.
Some of the robes alleged to have
been stolen by Pat Hill have been ident-
flied by viii Matthias and others. Hill,
James Horrigan and Ed West, all three
of whom are charged with stealing
sleigh robes, will appear IN the police
court tomorrow morning.

TAKING "A DAY OFF.

There was little going on about polit-
ical headquarters yesterday. There
was the usual attendance of state house
statesmen and country politicians atNel-
sons headquarters, but no members.
The Washburn people are out in the
state massing public sentiment at so
much a mass, and mileage. Mr..
Comstock was still conducting
noiseIess campaign, and Congress
man McCIeary's following, like
Skatfaren. was still in line with itself.
The Washburn men are evidently get
ting ready for the new candidate, for
they announced that they expected II
votes in the caucus. This Is about
double the number that the senator
himself can get, so they are, OF course,
expecting" them for the coming man.
The Nelson men were on hand IN the
usual numbers, with the usual bluffs
and the usual game of talk. EX- GOY.
Wakefield was one or the callers, and
while i'll the building also visited Mr..
COmstook.
The Nelson men proclaim themselves
as ready to 90 into caucus at an hours
notice, and say they are not afraid OF
the result.
The Washburn forces are arranging
for the candidate who is to win, while
Comstock and McCleary are waiting
for the farce to be played out.
A tour of the headquarters Was utter
ly unproductiye of sensational results,
the only sensation being that Of that
tired feeling" which follows the fruit
less search for news. Early in the
evening the Salvation Army stationed
itself directly across the street from
the Nelson headquarters and began
singing Hold the Fort" but seeing
John Goodnow's face at the window
they concluded that further advice was
unnecessary and departed III peace.
Some days ago the Washburn forces
ordered a special brand OF cigars for
their headquarters. Tams BiXby got
onto it. bought up the whole stock and
| had them surreptitiously distributed
/ among the members, with the result OF
| making many enemies for Washburn.
Editor Whitney, of Marshall, came up
! Friday and staid over until today. He
| was an unsuccessful candidate for the
| senate and declares that hereafter he
| will eschew politics and earn an honest
| living Drumming the best country paper
| in the state.
"Uncle Charley McErWin, who was
in the house two years ago, telegrsphs

fiud company. He will go to church to-
