Senatorial Gossip

The Ser atnrial pot was butbling
and ~simtnerIng yesterday With quite
a heat on, Senator Jones came down
and opened headquarters at the
Arlington. He has u Very little to
say on the situation, but there is a
CLEAN in his eye when he
on the subject that indicates that he's
about to strip for the fray and make
the battle of his life. He realizes that
there ia a fight on. and his friends
say that since he has had so many
Easy things, he wants a championship
fight in which he can demonstrate his
g~ladiatorial ability and ring general
ship.
Nixon's l%ieutenants say that be will
ALEC show up at the Capital today
establish headquarters at the Ormsby
and throw down the gage If battle.
Yesterday some parties waited on Gen.
Clark to secure him TO make an anti
Jones speech 10 the Opera House, but
he declined to state whether he would
or not.
An effort is being made by the
Nixon contingent to induce Clake to
deliver a lecture On the legal status Of
a o resident without any personal
allusion to anyone, but 50 far the
General has declined to be drawn into
the controversy.
MoonUhil lie tho fr;aoIn " C.-..
Sadler propose to put him in the fight,
ard it is rumored that the Governor is
no adverse to the programme.
A. G. Cleveland is also mentioned
As a probable candidate who will come
in with manipulalions and some
dough.
Meanwhile several parties are f1gur-
ing on the complimentary ote OF the
Republicans. Judge Bigelow wants
it but Ex-Governor Cnlcord Is regard
ed as the logical candidate" as he
has remained in the State since he
retired from Office. and Bigelow is
packing his household goods ready to
pitch his tent in California.
In case Jones had 81 votes and
Nixon 81 on joiut ballot, the man
who held the three Republican votes
could pitch the Se%natorsnip where
ever he pleased. 1t would make an
interesting deadlock and in such a
case no one could guss where the
plum would fall. Nixon's friends
claim 20 votes, but the Jones people
laugh when the figures are mentioned
and say nothing.

We Foolish Printers.

The following incident illustrates
the extent to which the printing bust
ness is demoralized by ''cut-rate"
printers:
A solicitor for a firm Of printers
called upon a business man recently
to ask for a share OF his printing
order.
DO you people pay rent for the
premises you occupy?' asked the
business man.
"Of course we do" replied the So
%licitor.
DO you employ competent men to
do your work?"
Yes"
do you give them fair wagps?"
"Yes."
do they get their wages every
week?"
"Of course they do"
"Do you pay tor your paper and
other mate:ials?"
Eyes, We do
Then you can't afford TO do nv
work. The people who are doing if
at present must get their labor for
nothing and must steal the paper.
Good morning!'-Paclfic Typograph.

A Murder.

The Gazette learns further particu-
lars Of a recent sho ting at Loyalt>n,
resulting in he death of F. B. Hooley,
a boy Is years old. 1t seems that the
slayer, a man by the name of Huh
bard. shot young Hooley through a
window OF the house OF 81. Hooley.
The preliminary examination was
held last week and the testimony
being closed Justice Timmous dis
missed the defendant. Opinions as o
the dismissal are very conflicting.
From what the Gazette has been abb
to learn the killing was unjustifahlp
under the law, but perhaps II full
underst tnding OF all the testimony
would place the officer in q different
light.

His Resignation.

Secretary Gage will in a few davs ask
Cen WV. Duffield, chief of the coast and

action was decided upon three months ago

been carried out because Secretary Gage
was casting about for a suitable man TO
take the position. He has about decided on
that man. and is ready to receive the res

Kinney did not instruct Secretary Gage
Yesterday to demand the resignation of the
chlef of the survey, inaSmuch as the re-
moval vas long ago decided upon, together
with number of other changes in the
bureau. No decision has been reached as
TO the other changes, but matters assumed
an acute stage yesterday when Cen Duf
neld preferred charges against three of the
most prominent men under him.
Inc three men are o. H. Tittman, nov
assistant in the office, and with the survey
for thirty-six years: Charles A. Srhott
chief OF the computing division an en-
ploye for twenty-six years. and ]. F. Pratt,
ore Of the oldest men in the service.
Gen. Duffield alleges that the thro men
are unfit for their places, and that they
are guilty of conspirins for his removal.
He alleges that the conspiracy was detrj-
entail to the service.
Secretary Gage will not permit insuborli-
nation of any kind. If it can be proven
that the three men are guilty of the charge
against them the matter may 60 narl with

letters TO Secretary Gage they have al

1t is alleged that General Duffield woul5
have been asked to resign at the time of

for Secretary Alger. The latter is a friend
of Henry NJ. Duffield of Detroit a brother
OF General Duffield, and it was on account
OF friendship that Secretary Alger inter-
posed SO long.
General Duffield is a democrat, and Sc
cured his place through the influence OF
Don NJ. Dickinson.
Among those spoken of to succeed Cen
eral Duffield are o. H. Tittman, Prof Ed

OPPOSED TO ANNEXATION.
Why Senator bacon Does Not FavO
Closer Relations With Hawaii.


Closer Relations With Hawaii.
Senator Bacon of Georgia is strongly op-
posed TO the annexation of Hawaii. He
was asked this morning for his views on
matters Of interest which will come up at
the coming session of Congress. He said
he regarded the Hawaiian question as one
of the most important, and then set forth
his views in opposition to annexation. He
said:
Il am opposed to annexation on one fun
damental proposition, If on no other The
policy of having a state that far away can
never be agreed to by the American people
Even if Hawaii should become thoroughly
AmericGEiZed, ii is hot consistent with our
system of government that state shoulj
be 1000 miles off in the middle of The
water. The Incorporation of a state that
far away from our nearest state was never
within the contemplation Of the founders
of the government.
Il. would be d matter to which the
American people would never be reconcilcd
if in some close presidential election the
choice of a President should be determine c.
Icy the vote of Hawaii. 1t would be equally
Objectionable If in closely balanced Sen
ate the question of the passage or defeat
of bill affecting the entire country should
be decided by the vote of the Hawaiian
senator's"
Asked If airy other form of government
could be devised Senator Bacon said he
did not think anything could be done to
guarantee any other form of government
Even if Hawaii is admitted said Senator
Bacon, with sCme vehemence, "she will
never be anything but a pocket borough
The island Is made up Of a lot of volcanoes,
fringed by land
Senator Bacon said he did not know the
strength of those favorng annexation in
the Senate. but he believed a majority of
the Senate was for annexation. He did not
believe, however. that two-thrls of the
Senate was for the annexation.
