HOW DEWEY GOT READY.
His Genius in Preparation Equals

St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

A distinct idea Of what was to happen
but To apply every practical safeguard
that the result should be exactly the ons

fort were given to putting the ships in
the best possible condition for a supreme
task. Machinery was m:nutsiy tested and
Inspected. magazines replenished with
just what was needed. collier, transport
and dispatch boat secured, and the per-
sonnet of the crews subjected to a search
ing examination. When war came Dewey
was ready. In nine days after IL was an
nounced he struck the enemy terrific
blow. The Spanish never fully recovered
from The shock OF the summary destruc-
ton Of MoN;ojo's feet.
To understand the whole range Of Dew
ey's provision Il is necessary TO remember
what followed the sinking Of the Spanish
for several weeks without the assistance
Of troops In the face Of large garrison
supported BY strong land batteries. and
maintain blockade not acceptable to sew
sral foreign powers. Dewey had with him
everything neeGfui 10 accomplish this dsf-
fcult business. His remaining store Of
ammunition, provisions and coal after the
battle were sufficient. The health OF his
crews remained excellent throughout tha

lists. There were some delegations greatly
disturbed, In mind. and there were indi-
vtdnaI members thoroughly .nbued with
disgust over the einai outcome.
The Spokane delegation went home dis
couraged and disaeaTtened- several meIn-
be-s openly announced that the middle-ot-
,he-roaae-s of Spokane Stevens, Lincoln
and Whitman COUNTIES could not be in
duced TO support a one-legged ticket, and
predicted its defeat in those counties.
Many Democrats. too. are inclined 10 the
belief that while they secured the offices
they loaded the party with platform that
will be as a milestone about its neck, for
there are many Democrats in the state
VINO voted for fusion two years ago who.
they say. viii not agree to stand upon
state platform that carries all the issues
OF the Popuiist party.
Leaders Blaze the Way.
A turning point In the programme for
fusion was reached soon after the ad-
journmen. OF the convention at very
early hour this morning. AT $50 O'Clock
a little coterie composed OF Senator
George Turner, Congressman Lewis. Fred
Bausman Of Seattle and Deep Creek"
Jones of Spokane held an informal caucus
down town with Gene Way. H. l. Alling
OF Olympia, Clyde Warner OF Kit,itas and
several other Populists. Long and faith
fully the caucus Iabored. There was q
general agreement among Its members to
keep their doings secret, even to the ex-
tent OF denying them il asked about the
matter. Already the heaven OF regret had
begun to work among the mass OF the
Populists. who felt that they had perhaps
done the Democrats an injustice In refus-
ing to accede TO their demands. The day
light caucus sent out messengers here and
there and reused men from the slumber
into which they had just fallen. The whole
situation, with all that 1t involved to the
fusion forces. was carefully canvassed,
with the result that when the earliest ris-
ers began to come down town for break
fast they were greeted on the sidewalk
and In the saloon ana on all sides with a,
pronounced fusion sentiment, which grew
as it was talked. and which later found
full voice In the Populist convention

as he sat down he shook his head and
looked as angry as ne evidently felt. He
was one of the Populists who felt he had

There was something suggestive in the
reception given the proposition. Yester-
day there was q natural and bitter oppo-
sition. Today, when motion TO table
was offered by one of the unknowins ones
and a dozen old graybeards arose favoring
it, the convention gave them the laugh.
The motion to table failed, and the resolu-
ton was adopted almost unanimously

point on the programme when nominations
for the one supreme judge were in order.
