For years Mr.. Schofeld has been one Of
the leaders In the Southwestern combine.
as the union Of tae counties in the south
western part of the state in Republican
conventions Of the past has been termed. 1t
was under his leadership that the delega-
ton from the southwest eliminated the con-
gressional candidates at the Tacoma con-
vention in order that the voting strength
Of the counties forming the combination
might be given to W. l. Jones and F, w
Cushman, now congressmen-elect from
Washington. He has always been r hard
money man and has stood out against the
encroachments OF the silver heresies in the
Republican party ever since the financial
question became an issue In this state.
Mr.. Schofield is "a years old. having been
horn at Portland Mich August 90 1854 He
received common school and academic ed
ucation, graduating at the University of
Illinois. AT the age of y he was admitted
to the bar: In 1870 he came to Washington,
making Montesano his home. He has TAX
en- an active interest In politics ever since
his arrival here, being elected prosecuting
attorney OF Chehans county in 1892 He
has been chairman of the Chehalis county
delegations at Republican state conventions
for the past six years. Mr.. Schofield was
Endorsed by leading members of the bench
and bar for CnIted States attorney for
Alaska and would have received the ap-
pointment had 1t come to this state.

personal popularity among his neighbors
was illustrated in the campaign His op-
ponent J. A. Glkey, was fusion member
OF the lower house Of the legislature from
Chehalis county two years ago When the
nominations were made great number Of
Democrats and many Populists in the co.lu-
~ rendered Mr.. Schofieli their support as
against the fusion nominee. Democrats
Popuists and Republicans supported him
for the office for which he was nominated
and the result was that he ran far ahead OF
his ticket

fusion managers and they repudiated the
ticket and voted for the Republican candi-
dates.

votes In the Numbering section of the county
and among the hop growers. The Dingley
tariff OF 81 on lumber. 80 cents per thousand
on shingles and cents per pound on hops
has made the country prosperous. The vot-
ers OF Chehaiis county realized this thor

Another important matter which was
used 10 great advantage by the Republican
speakers was the general opinion among
all classes that Republican congressman

ing to Go to War.
Mount Gretna, Pa. May 4.-The SOL
diers Of western Pennsylvania, who
comprise the Second brigade of the
State National Guard, were given their
opportunity yesterday to enroll them
selves in the volunteer service of the
United States. aniLtheir response to the
call was at once remarkable and in
spring. Three regiments and the light
battery to a man said they would fol-
low the fortunes of the flag as volun-
teers. and not one regimental or COM
pany officer in the entire brigade made
negative answer to Inspector General
MorrelPs question as to whether they
desired commission. The banner
regiments yesterday were the Six
teenth, General Wiley's old command,
and the Fifteenth and Eighteenth. The
officers and enlisted men on the field
numbered 3.073, and out of this number
but 104 enlisted men declined to vol
unteer As was the case in the First
brigade on Monday, some of the officers
and men did not report on the field,
being either absent on leave or detailed
on necessary camp routine duty. These
will report individually to the inspector
general and signify their intentions.
The same enthusiasm that prevailed
on Monday was manifested, and SOL
diers and civilians gathered around the
assembled regiments, and as each COM
pany declared itself thew applauded
vigorously. y the regiments returned
to quarters after enrolment the men
Of the other commands cheered them,
and before the various companies broke
ranks the men gave three cheers for
Old Glory.
Today the medical examination of the
men will begin. This will be rushed
through. Some Of the surgeons have
already made an examination. and the
second one will simply be an official
one. Surgeon Johnston, of the Six
teenth regiment, examined his regiment
Monday. and ten men reported physi-
cally unfit received discharge papers
and were sent home.

three Of his ships may be sent away
temporarily to meet the Oregon on her
way to Cuba from Rio Janeiro. While
the officials of the navy department
naturally feel a warm interest in this
race Of the magnificent battleship

feel little anxiety as to the outcome.
Even should the Spanish vessels fall in
with her it is by no means certain, not
withstanding their numbers, that she
would be defeated.
China issued her neutrality procla-
nation yesterday, so there is now no
place left on the Asiatic coast open to
the free use of the war vessels of either
Spain or the United States. China has
never before issued neutrality proc
lamation, and the naval officers are

have been decided to name General
Shafter, who has been designated to
lead the army of invasion into Cuba,
General Ftzhugh Lee and General Joe

president may also nominate General
Woodford, former minister to Spain, to

Perhaps Another Naval Battle,

st. Johns N T., May 4.-The tele-
graph operators at Cape Race and Tre-
passey, on the south coast of this ISL
and. report having heard heavy firing
of guns in the offing on Saturday night.
The firing lasted Is minutes, and con-
veyed the impression that two ships
were engaged in a sea fight The firing
Is described as having been heavy
enough to shake houses in the vicnities
mentioned. Crowds of people flocked
to the waters edge. wondering what
was the cause. The first impression
was that some steamer in distress in
the bay was firing rockets. but the dis
charges were too heavy and too rapid
for that. Then 1t was agreed that
probably there was a naval battle in
progress. Saturday afternoon a num-
Der Of Trepassey people saw a large
steamer in the ofiing. They believe 1t
was warship.
