A Vain Effort to Induce h silver Re-

More wrinkles accumulated yesterday
on the three brows Of the three-headed
chairman Of the Iet-us-ail-in-on-it CEN
trail COMMITTEES. Swede Murphy IA an
other wrinkle or two. +. E.. Corbett had
quite q number OF them and Malcolm
.Gillis had most of all. The chief u
of these new wrinkles was a demand
from a large number Of representative
Cornishmen that william Thompson be
pulled of of the mixed ticket. They de-
clared hat under no circumstances
would they swallow the tickle IL they
had to take Thompson at the head Of 1t.
They CAV II as an ultimatum which
the three-headed committee could take
or leave alone. as they pleased. They
supported Mr.. Thompson Loyalty once,
when he ran for mayor. and his con-
scientious scrupies forbade him giving
an Office OF the municipality to any
man born in m foreign country ex-
cept Canada. So the sons of England
were shut out and they haven forgot
ten II yet.
Immediately the t~hree-headed COM
mittee appointed Mr.. ellis a committee

the good of the cause" The matter
was talked over and 1t was decided

But II was too bad. In the first place.
Mr.. Thompson refused to be pulled off.
He said that he never wanted the nomi-
nation. He never asked for IL and he
never asked anybody to vote for him
in the convention. Another man was
slated for the position. Some of his
friends. however. had placed him In
nomination and he was chosen by the
convention as its nominee. He had ac-
cepted the trust reposed, and having
accepted IL, under no circumstances
would he now pull of. He was there
to stick.
Equally vain was the effort made TO
induce the silver republicans to fuse on
the proposition of putting Monteath on
for senator. They said they were will
ing to fuse IL they would drop the Clark
outfit. They would go in with the rest

There was more trouble In the popu-

up in revolt against the fusion with

they repudiated the action Of some OF

barrel and enemies of silver. SO they
made a call for a meeting TO be held at
the court house tonight. with a view
Of putting a populist ticket in the field.
The call is as follows:

Asked to be Released.

Attorney J. S. Carnahan, Of Grand
Junction, was here Monday and argued
case before Judge Bailey in cham
bers. Mr. Carnahan asks for writ
of habeas corpus by which E. Frank
White and Thos. Reynolds may be re-
leased from the state penitentiary.
The chief point in this argument was
that these men were not convicted on
evidence but plead guilty and were
sentenced. The case is a more than
an ordinary important one because if
the writ is granted it will result in re-
leasing about one hundred and fifty
.convicts who have been similarly SEN
fenced. The case will be decided
some time the last of this week.

AT THE COURT HOUSE.
A Review of the Incoming and Out
going Officers Who VIII Serve
Our People.

ouT fcOpic.
Tuesday marked an epoch in the
political history of the Fremont coun-
tv court house. Since Tuesday noon
but one Populist holds Office in Ere
mont county. 1t was on this day that
the new officers took their places,
with the exception of Treasurer Cas-
sedy, who went in on the lst day Of
the month. Mr.. Cassidy and his chief
deputy, Mr.. c. J. Fredrickson, are
already well established in their new
quarters and are handling the funds
and making out tax receipts with the
dexterity of much older hands. The
good jokes of the ex-treasurer, Pap
Rudolph, and the genial face of his
son and deputy, will long be remem-
bered by the patrons of the treasur-
er's office.
The sheriff's office, which has long
been the club room for the Blyth
wing of the Populist party, is now
looked after by Sheriff Hawkins and
Deputy Sheriff Simons, of Florence.
Both have served papers and handled
the handouts before and they are few,
if any, who do not have perfect faith
in the new administration for this
department. Sheriff Blyth and Deputy
Houston cared for the prisoners and
looked after the erring in this county
four years, and well did they do their
work. Those who know Mr.. Blyth
the best, without regard to politics,
have the best things to say of him,
and the same may be said of his
deputy.
Prof. James Woods, the incoming
County Superintendent of Schools, is
well known in educational circles. He
is the sole representative of the Popu-
list party in county office in Fremont
county. Few teachers in the state
are better fitted to fill this responsi-
BILE position than Mr.. Woods. His
predecessor, Mr.. Durfee was mar
that all liked and respected. In leav.
ing the court house he takes with him
the best wishes of for his future Of
his fellow officers and many friends
The new Commissioner, Mr.. Henry
l.. White, is probably better knowr
over the county than any of the othel
officers, having resided here since {
boy. He is owner of the st. Clouc
hotel, successful business man, ant
there are none who doubt his ability
to manage well the affairs of the
county. He succeeds Mr.. J. H. Har-
rison, Who in many ways made a
model commissioner. Mr.. Harrison
is well liked, and the little incident
mentioned in another column show
J what his fellow officers thing of him
The County Clerk, Mr.. Jos. W. Mil
som, succeeds himself, and there art
many who did not vote for him are
not sorry that Joe continues to hole
this office. OF course the county
might be able to get along without
Joe in the clerks office, but it woulC
take many people long while to gel
used to it. Mr.. Nilsson continues a:
his chief deputy Mr.. A. R. Frisbie
who has proved so valuable to hin
during the past four years.
The assessors Office is another one
in which there is no change and there
are many property holders who voted
against Mr. Lloyd who are now wei
pleased that the assessors books dc
not go into strange hands. Fremont
county could not find better asses.
