FACT1ONAL EFFORT
To Inject Trouble into Last Saturdays
Republican Convention.

One Of the silliest attempts to get up
trouble was perpetrated at the Repubn.
can primary to select delegates, held last
Saturday, that has come to the notice Of
the public for many day.
After it was fully determined and
stated by the NEws-HERALD last week
that there would be no contests over the
selection Of delegates, John Horst who
has worked for the election Of Demo.
Gratis on several other occasions, and
few other kickers and malcontents, got
out ticket containing the names of Ger.
tain Republicans who had been spoken
of for delegates and wrote over their
names "anti.gang" hoping to be able af
ter this ticket was elected, ss, Of course,
IL would be unanimously, to claim q
victory for . piece Of personal spite work.
That this action was condemned by
the Republicans in strongest terms is
putting 1t mildly. A large number re-
fused to attend the meeting, others went
away without voting, and others voted
after scratching out the words indicating
factional trouble. Hon. Jonah Britton,
who headed the list of State delegates,
when showed ticket said that he could
not 60 the ticket in that form; that Re
publicans in the country didn't know
any gang in either faction, and that what
Republicans should do was to get togeth.
er and avoid factional troubles that
would be for the benefit of the Demo
Gratis, and that what Republicans should
do was to get together and work for the
election Of the Republican ticket, that
work of this kind always benefited the
Democrats.
Other members of the delegation pres.
ent expressed themselves in like terms,
and several who were not at the con.
vention have denounced the proceed
ings in the same way.
The delegation will represent the Re.
publicans of the county at the conven.
ton and not the fellows who attempted
by trick to insinuate falsely against
them.
The Republicans have all they can do
to carry this county as it is and cannot
afford to have trouble brought about by
few parties who should vent their per.
sonal spite in personal way, and who
seem to be anxious to turn Highland
county over to the Democrats.
Mr.. Horst came to grief with the peo.
pie of East Fairfield, his own township.
He had importuned them to come over
to the convention, but when some of
them came over he found no sympa.
thizers in his personal matters except
another member of the Horst family.
Hon. ]. J. Pugsley who is on the dele.
cation is too well known to be effected
by any insinuations. He was the can.
didate of the straightout Republicans
twice for Representative, once for State
Senator and twice for Congress, and has
always been found in the front ranks of
loyal Republicanism.
The same can be said as to the loyalty
of other Republicans on the delegation
who are opposed to conflict within the
party that may bring about defeat, and
that opinion is shared by the loyal, &C.
tive and reliable Republicans of High.
land county.

LUCIANO, Switzerland, May cit
has been terrible day at Milan.
At l o'clock veritable battle occurred
in the Via Somtraire. Thousands Of
tiles and chimneys were hurled from
the roofs upon the troops, who were
compelled to retire. A similar fight
took place in the Via Torno and it is
believed that no fewer than 800 were
killed and 1000 inj ured.
A Swiss merchantmen, which has ar.
rived here from Milan, described the
events Of Saturday as completely an.
archistical According to his account
the leaders Of the agitation evidently
had well arranged plans. Columns of
rioters emerged from all the galleries
of the town and converged on center
where they rapidly constructed barri-
cades. When they were dislodged by
the troops they mounted to the roofs
and rained tiles and chimneys down
upon the soldiers.
The gates of the town were held by
troops in the evening and throughout
the night, so that workmen employed
outside were unable to return to their
homes. In this way the rising was de.
prived of additional help from without.

Spaniards Had the Advantage.
The position occupied by the Span
ds, the support which their ships re-
hed from the land batteries and the
guns they had ashore gave them an
Eamous advantage. Therefore, when
iconsidered that the Spaniards lost
r 900 men killed and wounded; that
their ships, amounting to about IA,
ne destroyed, and that their naval
senal at Cavite was also destroyed

rent that the victory of the American

wonderful achievements in the
s'ory OF naval warfare. Not a man
