THE REPUBLIOAN NOMINA TON

- -
THE REPUBLICAN, NOMINA TON.
All of the indications of the Republican
chess board point in the direction of VIM.
Mckinley as the recipient of the Republican
nomination for the Presidency.
II is true that politicians Of national re-
pute, such as Plat, Quay, Garrison, John
c. New and others of that clan are opposed
to him. Still none Of them give any par
ticular reason for antagonizing Mckinley
Each has candidate OF his own upon whom
he hopes the anti. Mckinley forces will
unite. All join in a purely obstructive, a
wholly negative policy to beat Mckinley
even though they nominate the traditional
yellow dog.
The silence of Mckinley upon one mooted
pointed Of party policy seems to offer to
these individuals an opportunity. The Ohio
man has been very cautious in expressing
himself on the currency question. None
can say whether he is for the gold standard
or for the free silver OF his party. He keeps
his mouth shut upon that question.
Out OF the silence of Mr.. Mckinley upon
this mooted point Of party policy those op
posed TO him hope to win. But We rather
think it will be that hope that maketh the
heart sick. Indeed il cannot be disputed
that Mckinley has been in the lead for the
past three months, and the greatest boost
his boom has received has been from the
States of Vermont and Illinois last week
He was more than a hopeful candidate be-
fore tue action Of those States, and since
then he has been recognized by friend and
foe as the strongest candidate in the field.
II is true that the Republican National
Convention is yet five weeks distant, and
the rapid development of the positive sound
money sentiment in the Republican party
may render the intervening weeks between
this and the ST. Louis Convention very
perilous to Mckinley. Still We incline to
the opinion that be will receive the nomin-
alton.

GOODRICH CREEK DISASTER.
Caused by the Blowing Up of the Dam
by Malicious Persons.

BAKER CITY or, July 30.-Suffi-
cient evidence has been discovered to
show that the recent Goodrich Creek
disaster, which swept seven persons
into eternity, was caused by the blow
ing up of the dam by dynamite by
malicious persons seeking revenge.
Suspicion points to two or three per-
sons, and arrests may be made in a
few days. Several detectives from
Portland's private agencies are work
ing up the case.
The owner of the reservoir, s. b.
Paisley, has always refused to believe
that the dam gave way, and has re-
peatedly declared that it was blown
up by his enemies to prevent use of
the water by him in placer mining
He was determined to discover and
punish the miscreants, and with that
object he employed several detectives,
who have been quietly at work in
Baker County for over a week. Yes
terday morning the detectives went
over the scene, and near the broken
dam discovered two or three dynamite
cartridges. The fuses were covered
with brush and drifting dirt.

Germans Not on Good Terms With

SAMOA, July Is (per steamer Mon
owaD.-The feud in Samoa between the
German portion of the population and
the American and British residents in
the colony is daily increasing in bitter
ness. The Germans refused to attend
the Queens Birthday celebration and
the warship Fake left the harbor. it is
alleged. to avoid participation in the
festivities.
On July 4th the Germans assumed a
similar attitude, not one member of
their nationality attending the celebra-
ton. The Germans have not relaxed
their efforts to have German made the
official language there.
An outbreak between the natives &C.
Cured lately. The contestants were
members of rival parties. The affair
was without political significance. al
thoungh it was serious enough for the
participants. Six natives were wound
ed, four seriously, during the melee and
seven houses were burned.

INFATUATED WITH GAMBLING.
Downfall of j. F. Bard, rliniSter of
the Gospel.

COUNCIL BLUFFS 0a), July 30
A man Of clerical appearance, and Civ
ing the name of j. L. Bard, was ar
rested tonight in the Turf Exchange
gam bling house in this city on a
charge of forgery committed in Omaha.
In his possession were found testi
r1onials to his character and standing
as a minister of the gospel in San
Francisco and Portland, Or.
He said he had been a minister of
the Christian Church in Portland
where he now has a wife and grown
children. Some time ago he started
on a trip East and en- route went to
Cripple Creek. He became interested
in stock speculation, and finally drifted
in a gambling house, where he became
infatuated with gambling, and seemed
unable to quit it. He was finally PEN
nileSS and thrown out. He then made
his way East, visiting various towns,
and gambling wherever he could, and
when he could get money in no other
way he resorted to forging checks,
which he cashed. He expressed relief
at his arrest and hoped it would finally
release him from the mania for
gambling which had taken possession
OK him.

POPULIST WATSON.

ATLANTA (Ga), July 30.-Hon. Tom
Watson, the Populist candidate for
Vlce-President, telegraphed to the
"Constitution" to-day as follows:
In the event that Sewall does not
retire the Populists will put out a full
electoral ticket. There can be no fusion
unless Sewall withdraws. I give you
this merely as my opinion"
He sends a second telegram in which
he announces that the Executive Com
rrittee will determine all these ques-
ti0ns and perhaps the State Conven-
tions will do 1t, and adds that he stands
by his letter to the Augusta "Chroni-
cle," in which he stated that unless
Sewall retired there would be two plans
for action. One was two distinct cleo
tcral tickets, and a second electoral
ticket composed largely of Democrats
and partly of Populists. He concludes
his telegram to-day by the statement:
MY own judgment is that we must
run a full electoral ticket, unless Sewall

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3O.-W. H.
Afford, Chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee returned to
the city to-day from his home in Visalia
prepared to remain during the cam
paign, and to start the Democratic State
machine.
He brought along the roll of the Ad-
visory Committee. as the State Cam
paign is termed, but he did not make
public his appointments Chairman AL
ford was given power to name a COM
mittee of any size he pleased, and to go
outside OF the State Central Committee
for some of his appointees. He said last
night that the committee would prob
ably number twenty-five, and that about
twelve would be members of the State
Central Committee.
Il will probably be ready Saturday to
announce the Advisory, Legislative and
Literary Committee" said Mr. Afford
tonight at the California, where he
stays. Il will probably appoint the Sec
retaTy a day or two later Eugene n
Deuprey will be named as Chairman of
the Advisory Committee, and there will
not be a gold man or Buckleyite on the
list. The State headquarters in the Cal
ifornia Hotel are now open daily"
Chairman Afford is hot for fusion with
the Populists, and is willing to trade off
almost anything for a chance that the
Democrats may win something here and
there.
Il think that an arrangement with the
Populists can be effected, if it is neces-
sary to effect it," said Chairman Afford.
'I will telegraph Chairman Jones, our
National Chairman, Saturday. and find
if he has any plan. There has been
some talk of fusion in some districts on
Congressional and Legislative candi-
dates, and I think such arrangements
are not impossible In some places.
I'VE are going to make an aggressive
campaign, and it will be begun as soon
as the Vice President matter is settled.

"By the President: Richard Olney,
Secretary of State"
The Presidents warning proclama-
ton as to Cuban filibusters is under
stood to be one of the results of Secre-
tary Olney's recent visit to Gray Ca
bles, and is thought to be in some
measure at least, the answer of the
Administration to the petitions and
complaints against Spain's treatment of
Americans in Cuba, which continually
pour in on the State Department. Many
of these have contained pleas of ig-
norance of the laws under which the
suspects were arrested and impriS-
oned, and it has apparently been
deemed advisable to leave American
citizens no longer in doubt as to the
protection they expect If they go so
far in their sympathies as to violate

NINE DEATHS FROM SUNSTROKE
AT ST. LOUIS.
A Great Number of People Frustrated,
One-Third of Whom Are in

ST. LOUIS, July 30-The hot wave
showed no abatement to-day, and the
roll of sunstroke cases was largely in
creased. There has been little relief at
night, and for three days the thermom-
rise. At 6 o'clock this evening the mer-
curry rested at 9S degrees.
The death roll from sunstroke since
midnight Wednesday number nine
There were twenty-siX cases treated at
the City Dispensary. About one-third
of these are serious. The victims are
from every occupation, and indoor en-
ployment gave no immunity from the
heat 1t is noted as an exception that
but one of the army of letter carriers
here was affected.
The Government Weather Bureau
forecaster gives no hope for abatement
of the torrid wave before Friday night
when rain is promised.
The death roll among domestic ami
mails is very large. Horses have fallen
by the score.
Third-street commission merchants
are heavy losers. Forty coops of dead
chickens were sent to the dead animal
rendering works to-day, and twenty
carloads of perishable produce and
fruit were branded as spoiled by the
City Inspectors.
Special kilograms from adjacent
places tell the same story. At Red Bud
