Latest Developments in the Beer Boy
= cOtt-The Bricklayers' Election.
A prominent member of the Federation of
Liquor Dealers today told Star reporter
that he would at meeting Of the associa-
ton to be held Wednesday, offer resolu-
ton that the members boycott all foreign
beer. In explanation Of his contemplated
acton the saloonist said that the saloon
keepers generally have become very tired
Of the present troubles In the trade, and he
had found in conversation that many of
them have concluded that there Is no real
advantage to them in excluding the home
product from their counters, as the purchase
OF foreign beer, as the beer brought here
from other cities is called, creates, he said.
an outlet for money, none Of which is ever
returned to Washington, and it is claimed
that as this Is a bad matter for many peo-
pie in the District, the practice might as
well be stopped at once.
Ihe semi-annual election Of officers for
Bricklayers' Union, No. 1, will be held this
evening at their hall, corner of 1th and l.
streets northwest and the contest is ex-
pected to be somewhat exciting. The pres
ent officers are Thomas Levy, president;
Thomas Sullivan vice president; c. G. Hess
Ter, recording secretary; Thomas McLane,
corresponding secretary; Robert McMackin,
financial secretary and NJ p. Canty, treas
urer. Messrs. McMackin and Canty, having
at the election Of six months ago been
chosen to serve for year, will hold over.
but for each of the other Offices there have
been two nominations. "a
The candidates for president are Mr..
Levy, the present incumbent, and Mr. Will
liam Maghan; for vice president the pres
ent incumbent and Mr.. James O'Brien; for
recording secretary. the present official and
Mr.. j. b. Dowell, while to Mr.. McLane, as
corresp onding secretary, no organized oppo-
sition has as yet been developed.
1t is said that Mr.. Dowell, who is one of
the candidates for recording secretary, is
Ineligible because as is alleged, he has not
attended as many meetings of the union
during the past quarter as is required by
the constitution of all candidates for office.
This point will, 1t is said, be raised, and If
the decision Of the chair shall be adverse to
Mr.. Dowel 1t Is understood Mr.. Milford
Spohn will be nominated for the place.
1t is understood that the validity of ac-
ton taken at the recent special meeting Of
the union, when the resolution passed by the
Building TradesCouncil repudiating the beer
boycott was indorsed by the union, will be
questioned, as it Is asserted by some Of the
members that all the requirements of the
constitution were not complied with in the
call for the meeting. A similar point was
raised at the special meeting referred to-,
but was overruled by the chairman.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
The announcement has been made in The
Star of the purpose of the Union Republican
Club to celebrate the "fortieth' anniver-
sary CT the birth of the republican party,
on the evening of February %, 1896. The
plan is q most commemorate one, for the
origin, history and mission of the repub-
liCau party, SO far as it is completed, is
one of the noblest of political records. But
if the Union Republican Club propose TO
celebrate the "fortieth'' anniversary of
the party then 1 have to say that they
are two years behind time. When, where,
and by whom the republican party was
fourded has been a mooted question. As
my father had the honor of being one of
the founders of this great political party,
am Interested in seai1g that the facts
relating to that important event are truly
stated, and that honor be given to whom
honor is due. The Hoa. Henry Wilson, in
his authorita tive work. Rise and Fall of
the Slave Power in America" devotes a
chapter in the second volume to this quss-
ton of the origin Of the party. After MAX
ing brief reference to the various claim
ants for the honor OF giving birth to the
republican party, the distinguished writer
says. But whatever suggestions may
have been made, or whatever action may
have been taken elsewhere, to Michigan
belongs the honor of bei-g the first state
to form and christen the republican party
More than three months before the pas
sage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill the free
soil convention had adopted a mixed ticket
made CT free soilers and wings, in order
that there might be Il combination of I'LL
the anti-slavery elements of the state. I'M
mediately upon the passage of the Nebras-
ka bill, Joseph Warren, editor of the De-
troit Tribune, entered upon a course of
measures that resulted in bringing the
whig and free soil parties together. In
MIR Warren's own language, he took
ground in favor Of disband:nG the whig
and free soil parties, and of the organfza-
ton of new party, composed of all the
opponents of slavery extension" call
was issued by him, to which the names of
more than 10000 citizens of Michigan were
procured, for a mass convention. On the
9Th day of July, 1854, the convention met
in the city Of Jackson in pursuance Of this
call, and was very largely attended. A
platform, drawn by the Hon. Jacob NJ
Howard, afterward United States Senator
from Michigan, was adopted. The report
proposed republican, as the name of the
new party, which was adopted by the con-
vention. Kingsley s. Bingham was nomi-
mated by the convention as the "republi-
cam candidate for governor and was tri-
umphantly elected.
This clear and painstaking statement
from so high an authority ought to settle
the question that the republican party was
born in Michigan. under the oaks in the
city of Jackson, on the 9Th day of July,
1854, and hence this year will be the forty
second anniversary of its birth.

There are many people to-day who are

parts of the body, SO that when patient suffer-

found to be filed with disease cells. Do not

CAN,T GET THE MONEY.

For the first time in years the ele-
vator companies of Minneapolis have
found it impossible to conduct business
on natural basis. Because of their
inability to get money for wheat stor-
age operations, they are compelled to
sell the wheat bouht in the country in
order to realize money with which to
make further purchases. The demand
for cash wheat is thus cut in two by
the fact that terminal companies find it
difficult to provide themselves with
necessary money, SO that the millers
come in as practically the only support
of the cash market, and their wants
are not sufficient to take all the wheat
offered. The result is the cash price
has fallen heavily within week, and
elevator companies have widened their
purchase charge from cents to and
8. They cannot pay more because they
cannot sell the wheat except at wide
difference. The millers haven't money
to put in wheat except as the offer is
sufficiently low to warrant the pay
ment of a high interest rate, when they
are fortunate enough to find one who is
willing to let money on the best Sc
cGrity in the money market.
