DEMOCRATIC newspapers are
lust now finding a great deal OF
fault with the Republican mem
ber of Congress from the First
District. If Capt. Dovener is
such an insignificant and worth
less Congressman-if, as they
say, he has become so unpopular
why are they SO anxious to get
some other Republican nominal
ed in his stead /? Are they con-
sistent in their arguments? 2. The
fact of the matter is that this
important position has been SO
ably filed for the last two terms,
the comparison with the previous
three terms of Democratic rep
resentation appears very much
to their discredit. The splendid
record made by Congressman
Doyener will be maintained by
his successor; for no matter who
the Republicans may nominate
the people of the First District
will continue to send a Republi-
can representative to Washing
ton. If it should not be Capt.
Doyener rest assured that it will
be placed on strong shoulders
and upon one who will bear the
banner gloriously along the high
way of progress. If it should be
Capt. Dovener, he will not be
content to rest on the victories
he has won for his district, but
with a strong arm and a wider
influence he will not rest until
he has secured for his people

WHAT ALGER SAW.
Finds What He is Looking for at
Camp Wikoff

New York, Aug. 25.-In the camp of
the Second Massachusetts volunteers,
when Secretary of War Alger paid
them a visit at Camp Wikoff, a pathet-
ic incident occurred, reminding one of
the little acts of kindness performed
by President Lincoln in the civil war
When General Alger got out of the
carriage at the regimentaI headquarters
he was met by Colonel Clark. The
two shook hands and then the secreta-
rvs eyes began to wander about the
camp. In front of the adjutant's tent
was a poor fellow, hardly more than a
boy, leaning against a standard for
support. His back was turned as
the secretary approached in the car
riage, but as the head of the war de-
partment was shaking hands with Coll
Onel Clark his eye caught a glimpse of
the leaden cheek and stubby beard
The man had on a worn uniform and
was hatless. Beside him facing the
secretary was another man, older and
in civilians clothes. There was no hes
Evidently here was a case he wanted
to investigate himself. Dropping Col
One1 Clark's hand Secretary Alger
STROBE to the hatless man.
Are you sick, my MANI" asked the
secretary, coming up suddenly from be-
hind.
He turned and Secretary AIger saw,
perhaps for the first time the face of a
Cuban campaign had made great in
roads. There were a few moments of
conversation and then the Massachu-
sets soldier went into the adjutant's
tent Soon he came out again, clasp
ing a paper in his hand. Asked what
it was, with tears in his eyes he said:
''Furlough.' Afterward he said he was
Edward SIocum corporal of Company
L. The man beside him was his father
and father and son had come to ask
leave of absence for the boy who had
fought in Cuba
Secretary Alger next went to the gen
eral hospital and had scarcely stepped
from the carriage before Mrs. Wilmer
ding, a daughter of Secretary Tracy
and Mrs. Ruggles. both from South
ampton, L. L, made a plea, for better
accommodations for the sick men in the
hospital. Colonel FOrWOod, chief sur
geon, was sent for to pilot Secretary
Alger among the hospital cots filled
with sick men burning with fever. From
a slight elevation the general plan of
the hospital was explained to the sec
rotary of war, who, after paying his
respects to DR.. Brown, in charge of the
general hospital, started on a tour of
inspection among all the tents.

WORK ON THE ALBANY.
Our English Built Warship Will Be
Finished in Eight Months.

New York. Aug. pa special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The cruiser Albany, now building at
the Armstrong works at Elswick, New
castle-On-Tyne, England, will be the
first vessel ever constructed abroad,
especially for the United States navy,
although several vessels now in the
service were purchased outside the
country as an emergency war meas
ure. This naval novelty developed to-
day when Chief Engineer Harold P.
Norton and Assistant Naval Construct
tor Horatio L. Gilmer, were ordered re
spectively as inspector of machinery.
and inspector of hull. The new ship
at present consists only of a complete
set of frames upon which plating has
barely begun, and a few castings for
the engines. The Albany was in this
condition when the war began and
strict neutrality caused a suspension
of work on her.
The government was compelled to buy
this vessel in order to get the New Or
leans which had just been completed
and which has been of good service on
the Cuban coast. The vessels were
bought from the Brazilian government
more for fear that Spain might secure
them than for any other reason, as was
the case in the haSty purchase of the
torpedo boats SOmers and Manley, the
latter a miniature affair, having been
brought to this country on the deck of
steamer before hOstilities began, and
having since lain idle at the Brooklyn
naVq yard because she could not car
ry coal enough to steam to any other
port on the Atlantic coast, Newport in
cluded. The SOmers was also a mis-
cradle German affair, although new
and after several Intellectual attempts
to navigate in the English channel, the
trans-Oceanic trip which might have re-
suited in disaster, was abandoned and
the vessel will probably now be sold to
the highest European bidder.
The New Orleans is, however, cOnsid-
cred fully equal to the best American
cruisers Of her class and the navy de-
partment has no intention of losing her
The Armstrong; will resume work on
the Albany as soon as the two naval in
spectOrs reach Newcastle. With the
resources of the Elswick works, the
constructors have undertaken to COM
plete the vessel in eight months. In
that time a complement of officers and
a crew for the new ship will be sent to
England to conduct her trial trip and
bring her to New York.

AGREEMENT ON RATES
Is at Last Reached to Milwaukee and
Minneapolis.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 25.-An agree
ment on freight rates satisfactory to
Milwaukee and Minneapolis and for
which the Milwaukee chamber of COM
merce has been fighting for six years,
has at last been reached, and Milwau-
kee will hereafter be on an equality
with Minneapolis for the grain trade of
southern Minnesota and Iowa The
question was referred to a. committee
of the chamber of commerce of both
cities.
The railroads operating in the terri
tory involved agreed to adopt rates as
agreed to by the conference committee.
The agreement gives the Milwaukee a
rate of l to cents on the 100 pounds
less than the tariffs prevailing prior to
June 20 last, from $50 points in the ter
ritory involved. It places this city
practically on an equal footing with
Minneapolis and will give effect to the
spirit of the interstate commerce COM

AN AWFUL TASK.
Is the Provision Made for the Kansas
Soldiers Voting.

Ex-State Auditor Van B. Prather is
at work on the tally sheets which will
be sent to the Kansas soldiers. He says
that he finds the task. much more labor
iOus than he expected. 1t is necessary
to make out two tally sheets for every
voting precinct in the counties. These
are bound in book form and will be sent
out in that shape. Mr. Prather has
been working two weeks and has COM
pleted Cherokee county, having reached
the "C's' in the alphabetical arrange
ment of the counties The work will
keep him busy until the time comes for
sending out the blanks and probably
by that time the soldiers will have been
discharged.
And it is all due to a foolish resolution
in the Republican state platform de-
handing that the Populist administra-
ton provide means for the soldiers in
the field to vote. 1t was put in the
platform for buncombe and the Popu-
list administration is getting up the
sheets for buncOmbe.
What fools these mortals be-when
they are politicians.

HEFLEBOWER'S PETUNIAS.
He Makes a Charge on the Offending
Morning Glories and Roots
Them Out.

State Treasurer Hefebower sat in the
Office of the superintendent of Insur-
ance this morning and gazed out on the
Variegated petunia bed below. Sudden
ly his face took on a hardened express
sion and he muttered something be
tween his teeth which did not sound
like Sunday school words. Then he
glanced around the room and said en-
phaticaIly:
Look there, do you see those morn
ing glOries? They are just taking the
petunia bed. 1 would rather have COO
kle burrs around any time than morn
ing glOries. Why don't the men pull
them out I would like to know? Some
people never learn anything. Those
morning glOries will have to come out
of that if l have to pull them myself
The state treasurer dashed out of the
room and down the steps to the Offend
ing vines. He was soon hard at work
and now there are no more morning
glories in the state house petunia beds.
