POPULIsTs FEELING SORE.
Claim They Were Deceived
 by the Mcguire De-
nOCpACV.

The Board of Election Commissioners will meet in special session this morning to formally pass on the names of those selected to act as precinct registration of- ficers. A meeting for the same purpose was called for yesterday afternoon, but the programme" had to be rearranged and a postponement was necessary.
 It is expected that there will be a lively time when the commission meets. The fusionist Populists are beginning to re- alize that the Maguire-Gallagher Demo- crats played the whale and Jonah act on them at the Populist convention in Sacra- mento They swallowed Mcguire and the Mcguire Democracy has in turn swallow ed them. The fusonists were led to De- lieye that they would receive proper rec ognition when the time came for the dis tribution of the political plums. AS one of them put the matter yesterday, tney have been badly deceived. We Popullsts who stood by Maguire said he, expect ed a fair representation on the registra- ton and election boards. We are gett1ng it. The Populists have been given repre- sentation, but in the majority or cases the representatives are not the ones we wanted. The list of precinct registration officers will show the Populist afhllauon of many officers, but if the label 'Popu.. list Is taken off you will md Democrat underneath But what Is the use of cry ing over spilled milk? It won't do any good. I suppose we will have to take the label. knowing that the article given is not genuine.
 The list of officers was pruned yester- day and many changes made. It was found in some instances that the officers selected did not live in the precincts in which they were to serve, and, further- more. 1t is alleged that several of the ''chosen ones" had not been long enough out of jail to have their past misdeeds ciCiIly forgiven.

Washington, April 2.-President Nc
Kinley was one Of an immense throng
who tonight attended brilliant re-
ception in honor of Captain Sigsbee.

to go over and join the guests. Con-
siderably over a thousand people were
there. Prof. Alexander Graham Bell,
the scientist received with Captain
S1gsbee as the president of the society.
The line of guests occupied two hours
in passing through the parlors OF the
Arlington Hotel. The Presidents ar

cheering. He refused to take adVan-
tage of the general movement to make
way for him, preferring to remain IN
line and meet the Maine commander
when his time came. When he reached
him. the President grasped his hand
with the remark, Captain, it gives me
great pleasure to have the honor OF
meeting you" and with a few brlef
words of generalization, passed on 70
the ball room amid cheering and the
strains of Hail to the Chief"
