REPRESENTATIVE WILSON deserves the
contempt Of evcry well-thinking citizen In
New Castle county, and every member Of
the House who voted Tor the bill creating
county constables. The plan has be n
tried twice and the second time resulted
very disastrously for the Democratic party
besides entailing an enormous expense on
the taxpayer. With the Levy Court Com.
missioners asking to borrow $3.50, 600 TO
pay their bills with and the Receiver of
Taxes unable to collect the taxes owed the
county, our Democratic bunco Legislature
would saddle another big expense up,n
every property owner In New Castle
county for the partisan purpose of appoint
Ing county constables. We think some.
times that the members of the Legislature
lost all reason and sound Judgment after
they struck Dover. 1t must te In the air!
II. o. Hayemeyer, the Sugar King is not
guilty of any discourtesy in refusing to
answer questions, propounded by the
Senate Committee, in the sugar stock
market, which was manipulated by tho
legislation in the Senate at Washington
In 1894. OF course he could do nothing
wrong and then did he not give tips to tie
Senator'S when to buy and sell, that trust
stock in Wall street always to their profit
and bank account. He could do no wrong
even if Chapman, the broker did.

WE hope for the good name OF our State
that the race track bill will be buried out
OF sight in the Legislative grave yard. IL
has been charged that John T. Dlckey and
other well.known Democratic politicians,
who, it has been claimed, have pull with
that body, have been working night and
day for favorable report on it from the
committee in whose hands it was placed.
We don't want such gang as that which
controls the races in Maryland let
loose in our State. They arc worse
than IAN organized band of free boottr,
They suck the life, blood out of any COM

TO OPERATE IN ALASKA
MONTANA COMPANY CAPITALIZED
AT S25,OOO,Ooo.
Scope of the Corporation is GiEan-
tic, Taking I'm Many Methods
of Acquiring Wealth.

Helena Mont, Aug. lS.-A big Alaska
mining company that it was announced
recently was to be organized under laws
of Montana saw the light of day when
attorneys of the company filed the ar
ticles of incorporation with the secretary
of state yesterday. The fee is the largest
ever received by Mr.. Hogan since he be-
came secretary of state and among the
largest ever received in the history OF
the office. It costs just $l0O3 to file the
articles. The company is organized un-
der the laws of the state of Montana
with capital stock of $25000,000, di-
vided into 100000 shares of 500 each,
The incorporates are Porteus b. Wearc,
John Cudahy. Charles A. Weare, William
W. Weare, all of Chicago, and eX-United
States Senator Thomas G. Power of this
city. The company's places of business
are to be in Helena and Chicago, H.,
while operations are to be carried on in
Alaska.
The scope of the company is gigantic.
1t is to engage in all sorts of mining
enterprises in Alaska and in Montana,
chiefly in the former country. The
company announces that it will engage
in quartz as we'll as placer mining and
that it will keep an eye open for oil
wells. 1t will carry on a trading bust
ness also. 1t will also engage in the
business of transportation, both on
land and water 1t will build cities and
towns and put in telegraph and tele,

growth of the North American Trans
pOrtation and Trading Company.

CHOSEN AFTER A HOT CONTEST.
l.. VI. Shaw for Governor Heads the
State Ticket.

Cedar Rapids, Ia, Aug. l9.-The nomi-
nation this afternoon of Hon. l.. NJ
Shaw of Crawford as standard bearer of
the Hawkeye republicans in the coming
campaign ended one of the most prOtract-
ed and interesting contests in the history
of Iowa politics. About a dozen active
candidates for the gubenatOrial nOmina
ton were in the field. Judge Waterman
of Sioux county was nominated for SUI
preme Judge C.. l.. Davidson of Sioux
county was nominated for railroad com
missioner by acclimation. b. H. Barrett
of Mitchell county was nominated for sup
erintendent of public instruction on the
first ballot. Captain j. c. Milliman of
Harrison county was nominated for lieu
tenant governor.
The financial plank of the platform in
full follows: THE republican party of
Iowa reaffirms and adopts in every part
the declaration of principles announced
by the republican national convention Of
1896, and it pledges for Iowa that the
election III November next shall be Il
still more emphatic show of the strength
and Justice of the republican doctrines. 1t
again especially declares for protection
and honest money!
