The following is another editorial
from the Interior Journal of recent
date:
We have not consulted Gov. Nc.
Creary as to whether he will be a can.
didate for Congress next year, but we
are satisfied that there is general de.
mand for him to make the race. His
answering fidelity to the democratic
party; his success in his past races for
Congress-: his devotion to duty while a
member of that body and the position
he took as representative, make dem.
ocrats who desire the success of the
party instinctively turn to him as the
man to redeem the district Without
discussing his lengthy record as dem
ocrat, which we could with great
credit to him, we shall only refer to
the two last campaigns, which tested
democrats more thoroughly than ever
before. Gov. McCreary actively sup
ported Bryan. and made speeches for
in the State in the last presidential
campaign. He also supported John b
Thompson, the democratic nominee
for Congress, and made speeches for
him in the district. one of which was
in Stanford by invitation when he
made a rousing appeal for Bryan,
Thompson and democracy.
In the campaign this year, he made
a numl er of speeches for Shackelford
and county democratic tickets. His
speech in the convention that nomi-
mated Shackelford was received with
great favor and his devotion to demo-
cratic candidates and democratic plat.
forms was acceptable to all In the
Senatorial race two years ago, he
agreed to a democratic caucus, and
like true democrat should, urged his
friends to go into the caucus and sup
port the nominee, promising to do SO
himself no matter who was nominated.
The member who put him in nOmina-
ton moved to make Senator Black
burns nomination unanimous and it
was SO done. when he received ma
jority of the votes.
The governor has said to friends, we
learn, who have approached him on
the subject that the success of the
democratic party in this Congressional
1;.x.;o< g v,arop, o,,pf IN his cuccpSS
and that he is ready to actively sup
port the candidate nominated by the
democratic party.
We have shown that Shackeiford on
ly beat Bailey $50 in this district and
when the votes of Hindman and the
other candidates for appellate clerk are
su btracted it was shown that he lost
the district by 945. The claim can not
therefore be made that this is a dead
sure democratic district 1t will be-
hoove the democrats to put forth their
best and strongest man. Let there be
no unseemly scramble for the place,
but let every democrat seek the good
of the party and with a harmonious
nomination we will sweep the district
as of yore. There will be but one
Office voted for in November and the
candidate will have to look after the
organization and bear the burdens OF
the campaign without the aid of other
candidates We believe that Gov. Nc.
Creary is more fully capable of max
ing a successful campaign than any
man in the district, but if convinced
otherwise, we are ready to accept any
good man, who can pilot us safely to
victory.

COS SIP OF THE CAMP.
From a Staff Correspondent.


Camp Alger, Va, July l0-A large
delegation of the Scranton school teach
ers who are in attendance upon the
meeting of the National Educators as
sOciation visited the camp yesterday
afternoon and were entertained
throughout the regiment at mess.
They watched the dress parade and
cheered the boys in a hearty manner
as they executed the various manoeu-
vres. Afterwards they swarmed about
the different company streets, visiting
in the tents or chatting in groups with
relatives. friends, neighbors or--in
numerous instances-former pupils.
The band gave a concert in their
honor. Company C men conducted a
"buck dance" for their amusement and
Company d gave a boxing carnival for
their especial delectation. 1t was with
deep regret the soldier lads saw the
fair invaders depart. Miss Margaret
Van Camp, of the county recorder s
office, who accompanied the teachers,
brought along a handsome red and
white silk banner for Company f.,
which was swung to the breeze with
enthusiastic hurrahs in front of Cap
tain Fellows headquarters.

OTIS AWAITS DEVELOPMENTS.
Ready to Go to Honolulu as Soon as
Plans Are Made.

San Francisco, July 10.-Until the
Honolulu programme is definitely set
tied, Major General Otis can make no
headway either in this matter or in
regard to getting off the transports
Peru and City of Pueblo to Manila. 1t
was intended that these transports
should sail on Monday afternoon, but
it will probably be later in the week
before they depart.
Major General Otis has stated that
the First New York volunteers, to ar
rive here on Tuesday, will probably
proceed to Honolulu for permanent
station there and that 1t is possible
that the Eighth California regiment
will also be located on the Hawaiian
islands. 1t was originally intended to
send it to Cuba. Affairs may be so
shaped that General Otis will accom-
pany Rear Admiral Miller on the
Philadelphia to Honolulu, and after
the Stars and Stripes have been hoist
ed. proceed to Manila in another Vcs-
sci.
Admiral Miller states that he ex-
pected to sail for Honolulu on the
Philadelphia about July 20. He char
acterizes as improbable the report that
the Bennington is going to the Ladrone
island.

which stated that he was arrested for
felonious assault upon a 4-year-old

that while he picked the little girl up
in his arms he did not abuse her in
any way other than to frighten her
almost into Mysteries. That no out
rage was attempted, as attested by the
fact that the whole incident trans

Special from n STAFF Correspondent
Camp Alger. Va. July 10.--Generals
Graham, Butler and Davis went into
Washington yesterday and had long
consultation with Secretary Alger re-
garding the likely destination of the
troops of the Second corps. General
Butler told me this afternoon that Sec
retary Alger stated to him positively
that the war department had no def
mite plans at present regarding any Of
the troops now at Camp Alger and he
could not ever give them an intima
tion of what would probably be done
with them
Everything depends, he said, on the
developments Of the next few days.
As to the Honolulu assignment, Cen
eral Butler gave 1t as his personal
opinion that owing to Hawaii being
peacefully annexed instead of forcibly
seized, as was thought would be neces-
sary owing to the senate's Obstinacy,
only few troops will be sent there
and these will be taken from the Pa
Cific coast.
General Butler when questioned di-
rect, admitted after some hesitation
that one of the purposes of the visit to
the war department was to make
known to the war room at the White
House that it would be especially
pleasing to the officers and men of the
Second corps if Genera1 Graham and
his whole command was sent into
Porto Rico or some other field of ac-
tion.
The question which evoked his ad-
mission was prompted by a rumor
freely circulated of late that General
Graham does not view with pleasure
the prospects of being left here in
charge of a camp Of equipment and in
struction while the other corps COM
manders are gaining glory at the front.
Brigadier General Goblin was this af-
ternoon presented with a handsome
gold-mounted sword and belt by the
members of his former staff in the
National Guard, all of whom were
present with the exception of Majors
Millar and Oakford, who found it i'm
possible at the last moment to make
the trip. The speech of presentation
Harrisburg.
General Goblin brought his handker-
chief to his ewes several times while
speaking his gratitude, and when the
band struck up Aud Lang Syne" at
the conclusion of his remarks, he had
to turn his back to hide his emotions.
The ceremony was witnessed by all the
officers of the brigade.
Thanksgiving services in compliance
with President McKinley's request
were conducted by all the chaplains to-
day.
Another session Of the First division
court martial was held yesterday af-
ternoon Saturday, but owing to the
absence of an important witness for
the defense the case against Private
McJames. of the Sixty-fifth New York,
charged with assaultine an officer has
been once more postponed, this tinn
till Wednesday next Many petty cases
have been disposed of in the two ses-
sions, but in only one of them has the
finding been mad" public. This was in
the case of Private james Mllar of
Company X, Seventh Ohio. charged
with INSTRUMENTATION IN refusing to
attend to some dutv to which he was
assigned. His punishment was ter
days imprisonment and SO fine. The
findings in the other cases will be made
public as fast as they are approved at
division headquarters. n. ]. Duffy.
