senator Davis Opinion.

CHICAGO, August Ex-senator Cushman
X. Davis of Minnesota. a member Of the
Paris peace commission. stopped in this
city few hours while en- route to his
home in st. Paul where he expects 20 re-
main ard rest until September II. when
the commission sails for Europe. When
asked for his opinion of the probable slc-
cess of the cars proposal for a Gisarma-
Tent conference. he said:
While the obstacles in the way of the
abandonment Cf the standing armies seem
almost inSurmOuntable still | would not
be at all surprised ii very material good
could be accomplished by a conference OF
the kind proposed. 1t might not result in
the reduction of the standing armies, but
1T wOnd be step toward that goal. and 1t
might have side results which would be Of
the greatest value.
The czar has done a good thing in put
ting his suggestion forth. While Russia
would undoubtedly benefit greatly by the
change l believe the cZars motives are
rot in any sense selfish, and that he is
perfectly sincere in his desire TO bring
about benefits to all the European nations.
The Russian imperial family has always
had a vein of humanitarianism, and even
o. senttmentalsn, in matters of reform
and its achievements have been very great

In the selection of the chairmen, of the
various subeemmittees of the committee of
arrangements the same excel snt Judgment
was shown that has characterized the
movement to provide a proper reception for
the District regiment from it's inception
The gentlemen named are all experienced in
the duties assigned to. their charge, and it
is scarcely necessary to state that they will
choose their associates because of similar
qualifications on their part. The suheom-
nlittees are now being formed, and will be
announced at the meeting to be held FRI
day night. None of the chairmen seen by "a
Star reporter today had made his. seiectfo1s
sufficiently to make, them. public, but all
were engaged in the important work.
The management OF the Ebhrt House
has been particularly generous in, eNtend-
ing coufleSieS to the committees ant the
hotel viii be headquarters for the commit
tee on arrangements and all Subcommit-
tees. Accordingly all con -municationss re-
latinG TO the business before these commit
tees should be addressed to them. at the
Ebbitt House.
1t has been decided to adopt distinctive
baGge for other committeeman, the dssign
of which will be selected by the. badge

Der 10 and 90 the weather, of course. being
a most important factor on an occasion

THE TICKET.

After determined struggle OF two
days, in which the conference commit
tees OF the three silver parties exerted
every honorable means to protect the
interests and secure the equitable rights
OF their respective parties, a fusion ticket
was agreed upon and the conventions
proceeded to nominate candidates for
the offices allotted to them. While the
division is not rs equitable rs eould be
desired from Silver Republican point
OF view, the committee was given ahso-
lutte power, after number of unsuecess-
full efforts, to agree upon division which
would be binding upon the convention.
II performed its duty impartialIy and
for what was considered the best inter
ests OF the party, therefore Silver Re
publicans will acquesce in the result and
give the ticket their united support.
The personnel Of the ticket is except
ionally good and as whole it is COM
posed OF honest, competent men who
will give the county a clean government
and discharge their duties without fear
or favor for the best interests of the
whole people. Every candidate named
upon it, be he Silver Republican, Eemo-
crat or Populist, will be elected by a
rousing majority at the November cleo
ton. The nominees for county commits
sioners are exceptionally we'll fitted for
the important office, all being men OF
sterling honor and integrity and OF well
known business capacity. The election
OF this ticket will wipe out the last yes
tiae Of the old court house ring, whose
boss has held full sway for the past de
cade. 1t is ticket OF the people and for
the people and we predict that it will be
elected by larger majority than ever
before given ticket by the people Of
Kootenai county.

IT Is reported from Rathdrum that
Editor Yost was anxious to be a delegate
to the gold Republican convention which
is to be held at the county seat today
this TO show his loyalty to the party.
His ambition, however, did not seem to
meet with the approval Of come Of the
local party leaders and his candidacy
wss promptly turned down. The vote
at the primary indicates that the editor
unsheathed bis silver plated blade and
knitted the two leading candidates for
delegate and the blade is now furnished
from the gore Of his victims, although
they escaped with their scaIps and will

SECRETARY ALaER says that the high

NEITHER the people, the army officers
or the soldiers wish an investiga ton OF
the war department by a commission
selected by the president. It is too
much like a man selecting jury to try
his own case, and snch a commission
can not compel the attendance Of wit
nesses. II Secretary Alger has been
guilty OF half that be is charged with he
should be kicked out Of the office in dis
grace, and if the charges Are untrue the
nation owes him vindication through a
thorough and unpredjudiced investiga-
tion. The proper way to settle the mat.
ter is by congressional inquiry, and not
by n commission selected by the men
who are to be affected by its verdict.

COMMISSIONERS AT WORK
Considering Plans for the Govern
ment of Hawaii.

WASHINGTON, July I4.-The
American members Of the Haw-
allan Commission will reach San
Francisco in time to accept the
hospitality rendered today by the
chairman of the Chamber Of Com
merce in telegram to Senator Gull
lon. Daily meetings are being
held by the Commission.
1t now seems likely that during
the first decade, at least, there will
be an appointive Governor, as it is
felt i'll that way alone can there be
secured any conference in action be-
tween the central Government and
that of the islands. There will be
reform ofthe judiciary, according to
present plans, and a separate gov
eminent for territory and city.
Members of the commission will
leave Washington about the Ist Of
August, with the intention of Civ.
ing four or five days to a stay in
California.

PORTO RICO CAMPAIGN
THE REGIMENTS LIKELY TO
BE SENT OUT.
Thirty Thousand Men Will Be Re-
quired To Win the Minor Part of
the Battles.

NEW YORK, July 15.-A
Washington special to the Tribune
says:
1t is announced that General
Miles will start for Porto Rico with
in a week. With the Presidents
approval, he perfected all arrange
ments for his expedition to seize
that island before he left Washing
ton, and the plan will now be
promptly carried into effect. Orders
have already been sent to Admiral
Sampson to render General Miles
the hearty assistance Of the navy
in effecting landing at Porto Rico
and a number Of vessels of the fleet
will start for the island at once to
institute an effective blockade and
reduce such Notifications as might
interfere with the Decentralization
of the military forces. When the
first reports came of the outbreak
of yellow fever near Santiago, it
was feared that all the regular
troops from that province would
necessarily be brought north to
avoid infection, but the prompt
measures taken to prevent an cpl
demic among the troops renders it
probable that many of them can be
taken to Porto Rico without fear,
and it rests with General Miles
himself 10 determine whether he
will take them with him or send
them to New England.
1t is almost certain that most Of
the artillery Of the Fifth Corps
will, if necessary, accompany the
Porto Rican expedition, as we'll as
good part of the regular infantry,
while nearly all of the volunteers
and the dismounted cavalry will
return home. 1t is also determin-
ed that Major General Wilson's
division will embark for Porto
Rico from Atlantic ports within the
next four or FIVE days. This
division, including the commands
of Brigadier Generals Ernest and
Haines, consists of the following
volunteer regiments; The Third
and Fifth Illinois, Fourth and Six
teenth Pennsylvania, Second and
Third Wisconsin, First and Third
Kentucky, and Fourth Ohio.
Major General Brooke, COM
handing the First Corps, was sum-
moned to Washington today for
consultation regarding the further
composition of General Miles force
in case it became necessary, thro-
ugh the rapid spread of yellow
fever among The regulars at San
tiago, to draw heavily upon the
forces at Camp Thomas, Chicka-
manga, Camp Alger, Va, and
those at Tampa, to secure 80, 900
men. Several of the so, called i'm
mune regiments have also received
preliminary orders to hold them
selves in readiness to go to Porto
Rico, while the two regiments at
New Orleans and Galveston, re-
cruited from actual immunes, are
to be sent at once to Santiago to
garrison the country surrendered
to the United States.
