BISHOP SEYMOUR AND MIR. FUNSTEN
The Former Defines His Position In
Opposing Conservation of Latter.

To the Editor of the New York Tribune:
Sir.--May | be permitted through your
widely -circulated journal to correct a mis-
take which is calculated to do harm?
"The New York sun attributes the
withdrawal Of the conservation OF the
Rev. J. Il. Funston TO the opposition of
the High Church party, led by myself.
In the first place. / am not and never
have been leader OF any party In the
Church. l am simply humble bishop
OF one of the weakest and poorest do
ceses IN Christendom.
In the second place, I'm the election last
October / twice east my vote for the Rev.
J. u. Funsten-first, TO nominate him to
the House of Deputies. and, second, to
confirm their election when it had been
made.
In the third place, my objection TO the
conservation of the Rev. J. Il. Funston.
now after he has declined and the pre-
siding Bishop has officially declared the
jurisdiction of Boise vacant, is based on
legal grounds chiefly. Under existing cir
cumstances, the Rev. Mr.. Funston,
though consecrated a bishop, would not
be the Bishop of Boise and cannot legal
ly receive his salary from our Missionary
Board as such, nor represent the Church
in any legal sense in the district #
Boise. An injunction served upon our
Board of Managers restraining them from
paying the so-called Bishop of Boise his
salary would bring all the canonical and
legal points under the review of our civil
courts, and | am sustained by high au-
thority in the opinion that there would
be little doubt as to the decision. 1t was
simply from love of my brother that l
have striven to save him from such an
unhappy predcament.
Our presiding Bishop IS not 10 be
blamed. He will be 81 years Old if he
lives, the 18th of next July. The blame, if
any, is to lie attributed TO the masterful
minds which now dominate our venerable
primate. GEORGE L. SEYMOUR,
Bishop of Springfield.

One of the Republican explanations Of
the Democratic landslide i'm Baltimore on
Tuesday is to the effect that the negro
vote Of over 1900, upon which the Repub-
lican managers counted as a strong fac
tor. proved their greatest source OF
weakness, because it alienated thousands
of white Republicans. The particular ex-
PLANTATION referred to goes on TO say that
the employment OF negroes as laborers in
city work turned a large part of the white
labor vote against the Republican ticket
The nomination Of Hiram Watty, a color
ed politician, for the City Council; the
charges of an increase during the past
year in negro rowdyism, and the speech
of Senator Wellington, in which he said
Baltimore was not "A white mans city,
but a city for all nationalities and colors
of men" increased the race prejudice to
such a pitch that many dyed-in-the-w
white Republicans who had never before
voted the Democratic ticket. did so this
time to prove. as some of them said
THAT Baltimore was, and would remain
a white mans city"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

By local applications as they
cannot reach the diseased portion
of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the eu-
stachian tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
il the result, and unless the in
fiammation can. be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inhamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.

DITCH MEN confEa.
Representatives. Of Al oitehss In ths
Valley Meet st the Harvey House.

There was conference of ditch
men at the Harvey House last
Tuesday, representatives of all the
bitches in the Arkansas Valley be-
ing present. The conference was
called at the instance Of w. NJ.
Wiley, OF the Great Plains Storage
Company, and representatives of
the lower bitches who claim that
they have been Disseminated
agains, in the allotment Of water.
While the upper bitches have
been running full and great
quantity Of water has been allowed
to pass down the river, it is
claimed that the dust is flying in
the Amity canal and other bitches
down the valley.
A. ]. McCune, Of Denver, the
state engineer, was in attendance.
and both sides OF the case were
fully presented to him in the hope
that he would be able to give So
luton OF the problem.
The lower ditch people assert
that no water has yet reached them
and want all the upper bitches
closed down for an indefinite per
iod until they get supply OF wa
ter. All of the upper bitches. the
Rocky Ford, Highline, Bob Creek,
Holbrook and Otero were closed
down last Monday and a great
quantity of water is now flowing in
the river. The state engineer an
nounced in Denver "Wednesday
that the differences had been set
tied. Representatives of the lower
bitches claimed that Superinten-
dent Chew had allowed water to
persons holding later priorities
than those held by them. A tenn
porary settlement has been effect
ed by closing the headgates of the
upper bitches.

the conference were State Engineer
