o'clock last night until after o'clock
this morning. There appeared TO be a
great scarcity of candidates.. i re-
specially decline the nomination. Was
the Order of the evening AS many as
ID nominations for the same office, with
as many destinations, occurred. There
appeared to be no restriction whatever
as TO the time occupied in speech-mak-
ing. In discussing the platform one
temperance speech lasted for about
hree.fourths of an hour.
In teIephoning the names of the
candidates last night several mistakes

Benson, is the candidate for marshal;
Ezra T., instead Of Henry L. Hyde. is
the candidate for auditor, and the

proposed arnor plant. The first stop
will be made at Birmingham, Ala
Thence the board goes to Sheffield. Ala,

request OF West Virginia public men
Great numbers of appeals are coming
to the department from various locali-
ties having any kind of an iron plant
TO have the board sent there to look
at their resources, but in view of the
fact that the board has no authority
TO make any recommendation as to the
location of the plant, it is felt that such
time would not be usefully spent, BY
the act Of congress. Secretary Long is
charged with the duty of submitting
4 description of the lands, buildings
and machinery needed for an armor
pIaat. bat this is not construed to
mean anything more than the submis-
sion OF plans for plant, although he
may volunteer a recommendation as to
the site.

(From the HeraId'5 Corresporldsrts)
Nephi, Oct. 1.-THE election for mu-
nicipal officers this fall promises to
create a great deal of ill-feeling. Al
ready there are open threats against
the new reform movement. As both the
old parties view it. they claim it has
only been brought about through the
words which President woodruff gave
out at the conference just closed
Whether it will make havoc with the
other tickets remains to be seen, but it
is certain that both parties are on the
alert to down the citizens movement
There has been some talk Of fusion be
tween the two old parties. but up to
this time nothing has developed to this
end. It is a moral certainty that both
sides are alive to the situation and I'M
less satisfactory arrangements can be
made, they VIII fight it out independ-
emily.
The Citizens Reform ticket has been
given out on the quiet. and is as fol-
lows: John Wood, mayor; Isaac Grace,
William II. Pettigrew, James Carter,
Timothy Hoyt and 2enos Whitaker,
counctlmen: Mary Linton Morgan. re-
corder: Mark Bigler, marshal, and
Thomas Crawley, justice of the peace.
Several wordy wars have taken place,
but no blood has been spilled. The Re
form party claim that they are not out
in the interest of the church, but in the
interest of good government. With a
prohibition tag fastened on to their
platform. More than half the ticket is
composed of Democrats, and they are
determined. SO they state, to do away
with chronic office seekers. Whether
they will do so or not remains to be
seen, and the way some of the Demo-
Gratis view it and have expressed their
sentiments. they are going to put their
feet down upon such schemes as the
one mentioned. As a unit the Demo-
Gratis are working together 10 this end,
and there will be some interesting news
from these parts.

Austin, Tex, Oct. 1.-THE most Sc
rious situation now confronting the
people Of Texas is the almost complete
blockading of travel, owing to the yell
low fever scare. Many trains On all the
principal lines have been abandoned,
and the local trains have stopped run
ming entirely. Both divisions Of the
Houston & Texas Central and the
Southern Pacific are tied up most eff
fectually tonight, not q single wheel
moving, save in the extreme northern
portion of the state. Every small town
in the state is rapidly organizing shot
gun guarantees, so trains cannot stop
except at the big cities. The situation
in the entire state is highly panicky,
and the feeling is one of growing alarm
and apprehension. By tomorrow night,
unless the situation is soon relieved,
the entire southern and central portion
of the state viii be practically without
any railroad facilities, as all the trains
viii be stopped.

A QUEER TICKET.
Call It Republican, But the candi-
dates are Democrats.

dates are DS1QOCraIS.
Pennington, Oct. Zone of the most
complicated political tangles that this
campaign has brought forth exists in
Pennington, and the best efforts of as
tute politicians viii be required to do
the unravelling.
The mix-up occurred in this way:
The regular Democratic city convention
met last Saturday evening, pursuant to
Precinct Chairman Sanders CALL and q
ticket was nominated. Some two weeks
prior to this an element in the Repubii-
can ranks who favored non-pdrtiSan
ship had made an effort to have poll
tics eliminated from the municipal
campaign. in the hope that with this
accomplished some of the offices would
come TO them. They and their Demo-
cratic sympathiZers were neatly
squelched by the mass meeting called
to consider the matter and straight pol
itics was decided upon.
This action, well nigh crushed the
hopes of the Republicans, for they re-
allied the uselesSness of a fight on par
ty lines. But conditions have since
changed that, and for the first time in
the history of Pennington politics, g
Republican ticket will be elected.
The Democrats in their convention
welcomed the cooperation Of silver Re
publicans; they even placed two on the
ticket who we're pronounced Republic
| cans. Then it is alleged that they made
up the balance of the ticket on a slated
plan At any rate, a division was made
! in the Democratic ranks, and Republi-
| cans who we're quietly awaiting thei
| opportunity Immediately stepped int
| the breach. They issued a cali and in
! v!ted Democrats to participate in tue
proceedings of their convention, which
was held last night. They bubhied over
with goodness. They offered all man
ner of Inducements to get Democratic
! support. LaVishness in the distribution
! of Offices chara eteriZed their conven
| ton, anything went. SO Iors as thu
| ticket could be called Republican.
! When the ticket had been nominal
| ed and the convention looked at its
work it was discovered that the nomi-
! nees for mayor, three Of the councillors.
! recorder treasurer and marshal were
! Democrats, and the Republicans con-
| tented themselves With two councillor
and city justice. What adds to the en-
! tanglement ts that the two Republi-
| can councillors are nominees on the
| Democratic ticket. The prediction made
| in The Herald this morning was Veri-
! fed and John Walsh was placed al
the head of the ticket, which is as fol-
| lows:
Mayor.-John Walsh, (D.)
