REPUBLICANS WILL WAIT.
They Won't Hold Caucuses Until After
Ohio Elects a Senator.

Washington. Dec. Io-The Republi-
cans of both branches of congress will
not caucus until after the holidays. The
reason for the delay in the senate is due
to the desire not to prejudice the election
of the senator from Ohio, as that vote is
needed. Hanna or some other Republi-
can will be elected from Ohio by the
middle OF January. This will give the
Republicans one less than majority in
the senate. as Senators Kyle and Jones
will vote with the Republicans on every.
thing excepting the currency question.
The house members are much stirred
up over the aggressive policy of the
Democrats and will meet soon after the
holidays to decide on line of conduct.
The results of the caucuses will be await

CONTESTED THE ROAD.
Two Drivers in the Canyon Exchange s
Volley of Rocks.


This morning while driving the Sunset
stage down to meet the morning train.
Albert Perkins encountered Fred Huff
man, who was driving up to the railroad
camps with load of meat. Huffman
had stopped in the road and told Perkins
to take the turn out on the hillside. 1t is
said that Perkins insisted on his right of
way and reaching over with his whip
gave Huffman's horses a cut. Huffman
dismounted, according to the story, and
hurled some rocks at the stage driver,
who returned similar volley, striking
Huffman in the head and inflicting a
wound. The enraged men were then
parted by the Northwestern surveying
corps which happened along and each
wagon was started again on its way.
On account of alleged murderous
threats by Huffman during the conflict.
Perkins swore out warrant in Justice
Iugram's court this morning, charging
him with threatening 10 break the peace.
More trouble is looked for.

A New Financial system.

The demand now heard from mer-
chants and manufacturers and bankers
and other intelligent observers in every
part Of the country is not for some re-
pairs to our financial system, but for a
new system. No government paper can
be free from objection, because its vol
ume and ~redeemability will depend in
part upon the opinions of congress and
IN part upon the opinions Of the pres
ident. No one can be certain that these
will be correct in all years to come. If
we could be sure that they would al
ways be correct, we could not be sure
that the government would always be
able to maintain u sufficient reserve
for the redemption of DE notes. If the
weight of a pound and the length Of a
yard were liable to be changed at any
time by congress, the uncertainty could
hardly be so dangerous as the presens
uncertainty regarding the unit of value.
This explains why 50 many Of the men
who do the business of the country, not
alone in the north and east, but also in
the south and west, demand the with
drawal of the government notes. Iron

for her the hearty cooperation OF every

A bran new girl baby at Mr.. John
Brice's. John thinks as often as one OF
his girls get married, he'll try and keep
his number good.
Say, now, Mr.. Reporter man, I'll tell
you something If you'll agree never to
mention it as long as YOU live. Well, an
old fellow here il harvesting so far from
home that he takes mis- dinner with him
and among other things takes along q
Jug OF coffee. He also carries along q
| similar Jug OF black machineoil to oil his
binder. The other day the two jugs got
mixed up and the oil Jug vas placed
| with the dinner (he says the boys did it,.
Well, they halted for dinner and the old
fellow being very thirsty takes up the
Jug and fills himself about hall full OF
the nasty black oil before he could stop
the thing, besides filing his neck and
whiskers with the same. You ought to
have seen him,-he tried to throw NJ
but conldn't. Sick ? well | should say
he was! AS the oil began TO get in it's
work, he got so timber he'd bend in any
direction, and by night he couldn't hold
his head up to save the world. At bed
time he managed to get his hands down
to his feet and found he was barefooted,
| and finally found his shoes in his throat
trying TO come up, and the next morn
ing he found his head where his heels
should have been. When | saw you in
town the other day, | ached to tell you
about it but nc he happened to be there
at the same time | didn't dare to for
fear | wouldn't get home alive, and
even now | don't dare to tell you his
name but will give you his initials; they
are p. Il. d. You must not think these
are quite right, but I'll give you the key
% the solution just read them back
ward and you have il. This never
would have got out had he not been SO
sick, as the boys with him didn'5 dare
TO mention it, tor he told them if they
did he would tell "Gipsy" on them, and
"Wagg f. Sus" thinks too much OF his
head to tell iG to the Webster World
man /; and / guess III be safer not tC
sign this.
