RETURN STONE TO CONGRESS.
lie Represents and Supports Repubii-
can Principles.

1t is of the utmost importance
that the next House of Representa-
tivcs shall be controlled by the
Republican party, in order that the
Administration and both houses of
Congress may be in full accord.
From all indications the Senate
willsurely be under Republican con-
troll, but the complexion of the
House is in doubt 4 change in
but little more than a score of dis
tricts would give the upper hand to
the Democrats and Populists, and
enable them to defeat the policy
and plans of the Administration,
not only with reference to the adj
iustment of the tariff and currency
problems. There is danger that
two or three districts in Pennsylva-
MIA now represented by Republicans
may be captured by the opposition.
One of these is the Twenty-seventh
district, the present member for
which is Charles w. Stone. 1t
! embraces the counties Of Cameron,
Mexican, Nenango and Warren
and was carried in 1896 by Mr..
Stone by vote of 15,777 against
10,O5S for w. j. Breene, Demo-
crat and Populist, and 1,131 for
John f. Gill, Prohibitionist.
Joseph c. Sibley, of Venango coun-
ty is the candidate for the combined
opposition against Mr.. Stone. Mr..
Sibley is a resourceful politician,
who was some years ago sent to
Congress by a district ordinarily
Republican.
Charles W. Stone was apparently
the popular choice for Governor in
the Convention which nominated
his namesake, William A. Stone. X;
!; :; Mr.. Stone has served in both
branches of the State Legislature,
has been Lieutenant Governor Of
the State and Secretary Of the Com
mOnWealth, and has served several
terms in Congress. lie is chairman
Of the House committee on Coin
age, Weights and Measures, has an
excellent record as a citizen and as
d public man, and is q firm sup
porter and exponent of sound
money. His antagonist, Mr.. Sib-
ley, is Il rampant, radical free silv-
erite, so extreme in his views that
he declares silver to be the only
standard of values, and is prepared
to maintain the parity between gold
and silver by reducing the grains in
the gold dollar to give it an in
trinsic value of fifty cents.
The Republicans and other sup
porters Of sound money in the
Twenty-seventh district are in q
majority, but they need to be on
their guard against over-confidence.
They should rally as one man for
Charles w. Stone in order that the
sentiment of the district shall be
voiced by a candidate in free accord
with the political views that pre-
vail in the district However esti-
mable Mr.. Sibley may be person
ally, his presence in the House of
Representatives as a member from
Pennsylvania would be a menace
to the highest interests Of the Com
monwealth. He stands for all the
crazes of the Chicago platform,
whereas Mr.. Stone represents and
supports the principles upon which
William Mckinley was chosen
President, principles which in a
marked degree commend them
selves to the people of Pennsylva-
MIA. -PhiPa. Ledger, Ind

store, where he discovered his safe had
been blown open and its contents rl1ed
some time during Sunday night. The
robbers gained entrance to the store
from the rear, where there was lutte

powder injected and eXp.CGc~. ais. the
result that the safe was literally 3l1wn
to pieces and its contents scattered
about the room. There was soIaething
over 500 in cash in it, all OF which was
taken. Two Spaniards, or MeAicans,
who were in the store Sunday night,
and who had passed through town
few days before for Cedar City, were
suspected by Barton OF beng the guilty
parties, and his suspicious became
practically verified on learning at Nil

HOT FOR FUSION.
Uintah Republicans Favor "Apy-
- thing to Beat the Democrats"

thing to Beat the Democrats"
Especial to The Herald)
Vernal. Oct. 5.-Republican primaries
were held in the different precincts
throughout the county last night for
the purpose of choosing delegates to the
county convention, to be held next Sat
grdaY. AT the primary held in the Yer
nal precinct the fact developed that the
Republicans are wild for fusion with
the PepHlists, and held their arms out
appealingly to the followers. of Warren
Foster and invited them to a political
love feast, where the lion and lamb
might lie down together and indulge in
dreams of conquest.
InaSmuch as 80 per cent of the Re
publicans of the county are administra-
ton men. the fusion idea strikes one as
very funny. The prevailing sentiment
last night seemed to be anything to
beat the Democrats"
The following fusion slate was fixed
up, and desperate effort viii be made
to work it into the Populist convention,
which meets next Saturday also:
REPRESENTATIVE, John N Davis
Repl: county commissioners, Charles
Carter {Rep), Joseph Mckee (Dem.),
Louis Allen (Pop.); sheriff, Joseph
Moore (Rep); assessor, Dan Hillman
(Dem); clerk. Peter Hanson (Dem);
treasurer, John Blankenship (Rep.).
j will be seen that two of the Demo-
cratic nominees are endorsed on the
slate.
prominent Populist stated today
that it was his belief there would be
no fusion and even should it be ac-
complished in the convention, it would
fail to carry the Populist vote to the
Republican legislative nominee, as
there was nothing in common between
them further than to beat the Demo-
Gratis.
At the primary Leslie Ashton, the
Democratic nominee for constable, was
endorsed and Joseph Black was nomi-
mated for justice Of the peace.
The following delegates We're elected
TO attend the convention next Satur-
day: John Blankenship, John N. Davis,
Louis KabeH. G. f. Adams, Mrs. Il. S.
Collett, William Eitteck, John Reader
and e. II. Doty. Alternates: Mrs.
Louis KabelI. Joseph Peironett, Lewis

ACTORS IN COURT.
A Dog and Wheelman Responsible
: For a Free Show.

There is one actor in the where's
Matilda" company who should here
after be able to put a little more real
ism into the police court scene of that
operatic farce. The seat of city jus
tice was Yesterday the scene of a
drama in which George B. Trimble- of
the, company was the heavy villain,
while three other members of the COM
pany and three Ogdenites made up the
balance of the cast. Trimble, it ap-
pears. was arrested Friday evening for
assault and battery preferred by Frank
Ballard. According to Billiards. story
he was coming up Twenty-fifth street
on his bicycle when Trimble's dog took
after him. Trimble, so he says, ran
out and jerked him from his wheel and
struck him. j. n. Ford, NJ. Bill and
Walter Williams testified that they saw
Trimble rush out and pull the boy off
his wheel. but were not positive as to
the striking. Trimble denied striking
the how. b~t said thnt Pol'H~a 'zio'-ed
the dog and he simply wanted the boy
TO STOP nis Wneei So he cOG4d eaten the
animal. and for that reason ran out
and Selling hold of the boy stopped the
wheel. He denied striking the boy.
Other witnesses for the defense corrob-
crater Trimble's story. The Judge
however, concluded that Trimble had
no right to interfere with the boy and
fined him SIS. which he paid.
