Gratis and Pops. and the Democrats got
the worst of 1t. The Pops. have come
out blunt and plain and told their late
partners that they are working a scheme
that will not win. The Pops. claim they
will help the Democrats to elect kea-
ton, but they insist that two of their num-
Der must and shall go TO the legislature.
They are willing that the Democrats
shah nominate the senator, but that is all
they are willing to concede. G. Bill Bel

candidates for the council. but on account
of the action of the Pops. Hensiey is

ley is canvassing public sentiment as 10
the needs of military organization in the
time OF peace and has consulted q number
of visitors as to how much OF an army
they think should be kept up after the
treaty of peace is executed. No conclu-
sion has been reached as yet on this
point. but it is receiving considerable at
tention on tf1e part OF the admimstra-
ton Acting Secretary of the Navy Allen
was with the president part of the morn
ing, going over important matters OF de-
tail incident to the close of the WET,
including the question of reorganization
Of the present navy and its reduction to
what Is actually needed Il was decided
to create a board of i've naval officers to
pass upon the matter. Acting Secretary
Allen said that the board would be APP
pointed Immediately and that IL would
convene probably before the close Of the
week. Its functions will be TO determine
what vessels now in tn navy should be
retained. which of them should have their
government charters discontinued or their
use by the government otherwise dis
pensed with with the changes to make
in the vessels kept. etc. Secretary Day

20 the penitenuary, but II he would give
him 81 he would not say a word Hays re-
piled that he did not have that much
money and 4 he had he did not think
DoSs a suitable person TO give il 10. There
was q war Of words after this, which re-
suited IN Dos reaching for MS gun with
the express purpose OF killing Hays. Doss
Was rather SLOW in getting his gun in
position. Hays took advantage OF The
fact, pulled MS gun and shot Doss. from
the effects OF watch ne died. The first
trial was stubborn one and The sentence
OF the court was thai Hays De confined II
the i'enitentisary al Lansing for the period
OF twenty years. Mrs. Hays IS 4 teacher

"a Just and equitable division of the
legislature would have given the Demo-
Gratis control of one branch of the legis-
Iature with Populist majority in the
other. Democrats will not ratify a scheme
to deliver both houses to the POpulists
and if such schemes are attempted neither
party named will have control but Re
publicans VIII dominate both branches
while the fusionists are learning to deal
justly"
In Noble county the Democratic rebell-
ion against the legislative deal has al
ready assumed the aggressive stage. In
this district Tom Doyle, who two years
ago represented the Democrats ably and
acceptably, was sought to be thrown over
board in behalf of Duke Mills, a Populist,
in pursuance of Z. Dunn's joint conven-
ton promises. A convention Of Demo-
Gratis was called to ratify Mills nominal
ton and what transpired is told in the
following special:
THE Democratic delegates to the rep
resentative convention to nominate can
didate for the Perry district met at the
court house and it was thought by the
Populists for the purpose of endorsing
Duke Mills, the fusion candidate, as the
Democrats had assured the Pops that
they would endorse Mills; but the cat
jumped the other way. 1t was soon ap-
parent that the old line Democrats were
dead against Mills and were for nominal
ing a candidate of their own. Tom Doyle
was the leader in the movement and soon
controlled the convention, which nomi-
mated him as the candidate for represent
alive of the straight out Democrats. When
Doyle was nominated the fusion Demo-
Gratis bolted and organized a separate
convention and endorsed the fusion candi-
date. Mills.
"The break of the battle so soon after
the presence on the field of candidate
Keaton gives a remarkably weak assur-
ance of his successful efforts at har-
mony."

have found such in Hoods Sarsaparilla.

ROUGH RIDERS RETURN

New York, Aug 15.-The Rough Riders
are home. With Colonel Theodore Roose-
Welt and Fighting Joe" Wheeler they
have reached Montauk Point. They came
on the Miami, which, with the Gate City,
the st. Louis the Vigilancia and the
Matteawan, lie at anchor OF shore now,
the rigging lights plainly visible from
the camp.
AS soon as the Miami was sighted the
quarantine physician, DR.. Magruder. put
of to her in his tug, the Pulver. Colonel
Roosevelt met him at the rail. With a
hearty handshake he assured Dr. Magru-
der that both he and his command were
in first-class condition.
Il never felt better in my life" he said
and L haven't had pain since 1 went
away. Here's General Wheeler, too. and
his son, Lieutenant Wheeler. They do
not look as if there was much the matter
tn them"
Colonel Roosevelt had on a faded Ka-
haki uniform. much stained and dis
colored. but there was a wholesome
bronze on his face and hands, and If
he has lost some flesh since ne went
away he IS not any the worse for it.
General Wheeler TOO will pass the doc
.ors without any trouble. Always gaunt
and gIlzzled. ne IS thinner than ever, but
there Is d fire IN his eye and a spring
IN his step which shows that the deadly
oalen:Ura ras not been able to quencA

as tue doctor came alongside They gath
