After an illness of some two months,
Taylor 5. Hayhurst, a prominent citi-
zen of Waterloo and one of the best
known men Of this section, died Satur-
day afternoon of peritonitis, aged ga
years. Mr.. Hayhurst was a native of
Bradford, England, coming to the
United States in 1854 and settling in
this city with his parents. AS a boy
he was employed few years in the
old Ford wooden mill. In 1859 he re-
moved to Waterloo, which had been
his home ever since. For some time
past he was proprietor OF the Water
loo Touring mills.
The funeral of Mr.. Hayhurst takes
place to-day, the interment being this
afternoon at Oak Hi cemetery, this
city, where lie the remains of the
father and mother of the deceased.
The services will be conducted by the

Leave for the KlOndike.

Yesterday Ernst Kusel, son of D. H.
Kusel, and Rudolf Voss, residing on
the Waterloo plank road, left for
Madison, where they will join a party
of eighty who expect to start for the
Klondike gold fields this week.
Both young men are robust and
persevering, and well calculated to
withstand the trials of the undertaking.
The party they will join are well
equipped for the expedition with
funds. outfits and provisions. They
have not fully decided on the course
they will take to enter the gold re-
gions, but possibly they will go by way
of Skaguay The many friends of
Messrs. Kusel and Voss trust they
may have a successful expedition and
return home with their full share OF
that country's riches.

LOCAL POLITICS.
Calls Issued for City Conyentions-No
Great Interest Manifested in
Spring Politics as Yet.

Spring Politics as Yet.
The chairmen of the Democratic and
Republican city committees have is
sued the calls for the city conventions
and ward caucuses of their respective
parties, the Democrats leading off
with their caucuses on Friday night,
March II, and their convention the
night Of the 18th, while the Republi-
cans will make their nominations a
week later. The Republican calls for
| convention and caucuses are printed
elsewhere in this issue.
Apropos of the Democratic city con-
vention, some discussion as to who
will be the successful nominees
has been heard, but no particular
interest has as yet been manifest. The
most lively fight promises to be for
treasurer, an Office to which fair
salary attaches, consequently render
ing it desirable. It is safe to presume
that were the mayor salaried more
good citizens would crave the honor of
filling the chair. For treasurer Alder
men John Kessler and M. A. Began
and former Alderman Alfred Baumann
are seeking the nomination. A close
contest is promised, with the two first
named apparently now in the lead.
AS regards a candidate for mayor
the Democrats are evidently all at
sea. Mayor Rack is said to have alb
solutely declined denomination and
there has been considerable talk of
naming former Mayor W. F. Voss. In
fact the latter has been repeatedly
urged by his friends to enter the field,
it being pretty certain that he could
have the plum if he desired it. But
Mr.. Voss, after due consideration, has
about concluded to decline the honor,
and SO expressed himself to a repre-
sentative of The REPUBLICAN last
Saturday. He is we'll occupied with
business affairs and fears he would
not have sufficient time in which to
meet the demands of the office. Be-
sides, he is at present rendering valu-
able service to the city as secretary of
the water commission, a position he
would have to give up were he mayor.
Mr.. Voss is generally acknowledged
to be finely equipped for the mayoral-
ty ard would no doubt be literally
supported were he nominated
The Republicans, of course, as is
their want, are holding back to see
what the other fellows Go. In ward
contests they are often successful by
taking advantage of their opponents
mistakes. The party has some excel
lent timber for mayoralty candidates,
but as yet nothing definite as to who
will run has developed. Among those
mentioned in this connection ares. NJ.
Eaton, A. E. Needham and F. E.
Woodland, all of whom have seen ex-
tended service in the council and are
known to be thoroughly posted on
municipal affairs. Mr.. Eaton, how
ever, has firmly declined the honor
this year, and Mr.. Woodland on former
occasions when his friends urged him
has refused to enter the field. 1t may
therefore be said that the Republicans
have not as yet mapped out their
course, but may be depended upon to
be il evidence when the time arrives.

DEMOCRATIC SENATORS CAUCUS.
No Line of Conduct on the War
Revenue Bill Adopted.

Senator German, who for many years has
been chairman of the democratic caucus
Of the Senate, resigned the position yes
terday afternoon and Senator Turpie Of
Indiana was chosen his successor.
The change was made in democratic
caucus held late in the afternoon, and the
scene was an affecting one. Several
speeches were made, eulogiZing Mr.. Cor
man in high terms and expressing deep
regret that he should insist upon retiring.
Speeches were made by Senators Jones of
Arkansas, White and others. all referring
to Mr. Gorman's long services to the party.
Mr. Gorman in rendering his resignation.
stated that ne had desired to withdraw
from the position last fall and that he had
been dissuaded by some of his fellow sena-
tors, but That he had since given the mat
ter careful attention and was fully per-
suaded that 1t was the proper course for
him to pursue. He said that he had
reached the conclusion only after mature
consideration, and while he appreciated to
the utmost the tru st that had been repoSed
in him he could not see his way clear to
longer hold the Office.
The following resolution offered by SEN
ator Cockrell was adopted by rising and
unanimous vote:
-"Resolved, That the thanks of the demo-
rendered to Hon. A. P. German, the re-
tiring chairman, for his faithful, able, i'm
rartial and acceptable discharge of the
duties Of that Office.
Senator Turpies nomination to succeed
Senator German was made by Senator
Berry, and he was chosen by acclamation.
This duty disposed of, the caucus took
up the question of the war revenue bill.
discussing at some length the propriety OF
amending the bill in various respects, but
reaching no conclusions or agreement on
any amendment to be offered. Senator
Daniel suggested tax on corporations.
Among other ideas were the following:
For an income tax, the coinage OF the
silver seigniorage and the issuance of treas
ury notes without making them legal ten
der.
While all seemed favorable to an income
tax there was a general feeling that the
bill should be made to carry sufficient rev.
enue in addition to any that might be de-
sired from an income tax because OF the
