A GENUlNE SURPRISE.
Ex.AIderman Rounds Signs Nomina
tion Papers,
AND WILL BE A CANDIDATE FOR
THE LEGISLATURE.

| The Papers Presented to Chairman of City
Committee Last Evenins-Consequent
Iy the Convention Will Not Be Re-
CURED to Choose Successor.
Alderman Rounds is an adept at politi.
cal surprises, but he never gave his party
friends bigger one than he did last eve
ming.
II was necessary, in order that Portland
should not be deprived of it's full repre-.
sentation in the coming legislature, that
nominating papers should all be signed
by the candidates, and be in the hands OF
the secretary of state by tonight. Five
of the six candidates nominated by the
Republicans had signed their papers,
and Chairman Allan of the city commit
tee had been duly notified of that fact.
But the sixth, Mr.. Edgar E. Rounds, still
delayed. Under the circumstances, Chair.
man Allan called the committee together
at the Headquarters last evening, when
it was thought possible Mr.. Rounds
| would send a letter of withdrawal as a
candidate.
| About rs members of the committee
gathered pursuant to the call. Several
of the committee were discussing the
names of gentlemen who were willing to
assume the representative mantle, when
Mr.. Rounds dropped in. All at once, as
the clock indicated one minute before
o'olock-the hour named in the call
MIR. Levi Pennell, clerk to the committee,
handed a paper to Chairman Allan. That
gentleman glanced at the document, gave
a slight ejaculation of surprise and said
"Gentlemen, regret to have called you
| together unnecessarily. hold in my
hands Mr.. Rounds's nomination papers,
signed by him."
If bomb she'll had exploded in their
midst it couldn't have caused greater
establishment At first there was dead
silence, followed by eager questions.
Some inspected the document closely to
see if the signature was genuine, but
the bold familiar handwriting was too
plain for dispute. To cap the climax in
walked the alderman himself and he was
quickly surrounded and questioned, but
he was as jocose and non-committal in
his answers as ever.
Of course there were many njectures
as to why Mr.. Rounds took the course he
did. 1t was generally understood that
| MIR. Rounds DOESN'T care anything about
serving In the legislature, but he did
want the nomination to show those peo-
pie who had said he had lost his grip on
the party that they reckoned without
their host. Still another conjecture was
this, that Mr.. Rounds didn't want to
put his party in a bad box, thus perhaps
causing Portland to lose representative.
There are some who say that there is 9
provision in the law that permits can
didate who signs nomination papers, te
withdraw if he does SO within two weeks
after the date the papers have to be filed
with the secretary of state, and that his
successors name can be placed on the
official ballot If done before the two
weeks has expired. These same people
say that Mr. Rounds may intend te
do this. provided the city COMMITTEES
allows him to name the man who shall
go on the ballot in his place.

Cars Plan of Disarmament.

LONDON, Der. 22-The Paris CORE
spondeut OF the Daily News summa-
rizss in q dispatch to that paper the
various reputed conversations between
Count Muravieti, the Russian foreign
minister, and French Statesmen. He
represents Count Muravieti as declar.
ing, in reference to the Cars rescript
anent disarmament, that it was useless
preaching to the great powers. He ad-
ded that there was q large vested indus
trial interest in every State in the
manufacture of guns and explosives.
Germany and Great Britain had gone
too far in that direction and could cesse
easily. Perhaps France could also stop
these manufactures. Russia had not
gone so far. Russia's idea, Count Mu-
raveiff is represented as declaring, was
TO persuade the smaller States to d.
minish their military equipment.
France, Russia, and any otner great
power adopting the Cars idea ought
to support the minor States that dis.
armed. Russia could not support such
States unless France co operated with
her. Zach might protect the weak
powers lying on its own fontiers by
using diplomatic influence, or force if
necessary. The Increased prosperity
OF the disarmed States would demon
ssrate the soundness of the Gar idea.
