the two arguments which are always
used in favor of conquest. Philanthropy
and five per cent. The one chloroforms
the conscience of the conqueror. and the
other hicks the pocket of the conquered.
'Some say that philanthropy demands

''Still weaker is the argument based

CHANCE is MIGHTY SLIM
LEGISLATORS DO NOT TALK
LIKE VOTING HIM A CENT.
WHAT WILL THE LEGISLATURE DO?
Ohio Resigned Because he Knew that This
Legislature Would Never Renstate
Him in Office. Ally
for Salary.

S. Ohio Wilson, who claims still to
be Railroad Commissioner, has res
signed.
Yesterday his resignation was sent to
the Lieutenant Governor and the Speaker
of the House.
There is the hope on the part of Ohio
that the Legislature, which has no love
for Russell, will overturn the Governors
action suspending him from office if they
do not thereby run the risk of seeing
him again installed as Railroad Commits
sioner He knows that he can never
serve again, and he has decided that 1t
will be a master stroke to tender his
resignation, resting his application for re-
instatement upon a simple demand for
salary. He thinks the Legislature Will
declare Maj. Wilson entitled to the salary
during suspension, and he is trying des-
perately to get into the same boat with
Maj. Wilson.
There is some division of sentiment as
to whether the Legislature will resolve
itself into jury to try the case after
hearing the Governors statements, or
whether it will remand the case to the
courts where n regular jury VIII pass
upon the evidence. Very little has been
said about the matter and no definite
policy can be predicted.
Whatever else may be done there is
little upon which Ohio can base his hope
for a salary already paid to his sue
cessor. to be voted by the Legislature.
This Legislature has no "ruthers" be-
tween Daniel l.. Russell and ). Ohio
LII. ntt I,.AYs or
the place to which he was elected. 1t
will be in no hurry in reinstatlng Sotho'
even with q resignation string attached.
AS to the resignation, what did Otho
have to resign? Besides. the Democrats
have made up their minds to take charge
of the Commission al elect all three of
it's members. 1t will not need the re-
signation of Ohio or of Abbott in its
business. 1t will have three original va
<cancies TO fill, and will fill them, re-
signation or no resignation. Not needing
Otho's resignation, it will strike the aver
age slegislator. that It win not be wise to
purchase it by paying for service never
rendered.
And-come to think Of it--there is some
thing about the fact that before the
mother of s. Ohio Wilson, Railroad Com
missioner, leased the Round Knob Hotel
from Vice-Presdent Andrews, the South
ern trains did not stop at Round Knob
for dinner. but as soon as the mother of
the Commissioner leased the hotel, the
trains stopped there for dinner,
"comming and a-gwine." There may be
nothing in that fact save q coincidence,
but there are legislators who do not like
the looks of it. And it is a fact that,
while the folks have no more use for
Russell than for Wilson, nobody has
come to the rescue of Ohio while resting
under the imputations of the Governor.
That resignation of a claim to an Of
flee will hardly save the leader of

WILL STICK TO
THEIR FRIENDS
Board And Superintendent
Day Will Clash.
THEY WILL NOT CONFIRM
UNLESS CHARGES ARE MADE OF
INCOMPETENCY.
THE TUG WILL COME AT NEXT MEETING
No ac!ion was Taken With Reference to Ap
pontments Yesterday but The Feel
ing tfthe Board is Against
Removal tf Fllsicnists,
Renewal tf Fusicnists.

There is no doubt now but that there
will be clash between the penitentiary
board and Superintendent Day.
The matter of changes did not come
up at the meeting yesterday, as this
meeting was only for the purpose of re-
ceiying and transmitting the superin-
tendent's report for the past two years
The clash will come at the regular
meeting of the board which will be held
the third week in this month.
Members of the committee were in
terviewed yesterday. While they are hot
doing a great dca! of talking, yet it is
evident from their tone that they are not
disposed to look upon displacement of
fusionists by Superintendent Day with
favor and will not confirm the appoint
ments.
Mr.. Sigmon of the hoard, said he could
not speak for the members of the board,
but for himself he was opposed to CON
firmation unless charges could be prefer
red against the dismissed officials. He
further stated that he courted full
investigation of the affairs of the pani-
tertiary by the legislature and that he
was really glad that it was going to be
made. If there is anything wrong, the
people should know it and he, for one.
was willing for them to know it If such
was the case.
Enough has been gathered to indicate
that they will kick when the time comes.
AS Capt. Day has clearly stated his
position, stating that all the fusionists
had to go, from bottom to top, a clash
cannot be avoided. unless the legislature
furnishes the remedy
Chairman Dockery was seen and de-
clined to say what acton the board
would take on confirmation of appoint
lnent Saidthathe eaouUrvbgkqjshrdlu
ment. Said that he could not do this
before official action was taken. How
ever he gave the following statement:
First. the board is going to look after,
the interests of the people of the State
and will make every effort to assist Cap
tain Day in any movement he may take
to make the penitentiary self-sustaining.
In doing this. the board will always give
preference to its political friends. / do
not believa that the board will consent
TO the remova, of any officer of the
present administration who is capable
and efficient to be substituted by any
person simply because he is a Demo-
GRAFT Everything being equal, the board
will certainly stand by its friends.

Upon this showing the case was pro-
ceeded with, A. ID. Ward and Ill. IL.

Newborn. appearing for the contestee.
The deposition and evidence read
showed that the contestee, upon the

WINS had under an order of court issued
Inv Judge Bryan, and the recount was
made by the brother-in-law of Paul. and
Inv his political associates with repre-
scntotiyes of the Democratic party. This
recount disclosed the fact that ices

They Claim Their Government at Iloilo
is Acceptable to All.
Hong Kong, Jan. 66.-Thc newspa-
pers here publish the following dispatch
from Iloilo evidently from Filipino
source:
'When the Americans arrived at lloilo
they found absolutely no lOoting upon the
part of the Filipino force, or conduct OF
any kind unworthy of civilized people.
In conformity with their agreement
with the Spaniards, the Filipinos en-
tered Iloilo in an orderly manner, and
formally hoisted the Filipino flag. The
Americans found good Government
meeting with the complete approval of
the foreign residents. The postoffice,
customs and other departments were
working smoothly under the entire con
troll of the Filipinos."
The correspondent adds that the re-
ports of an opposition republic having
been established are refuted by the
facts that the Governor and General
commanding at IliolO have assured the
American delegates from the warshlps
that they could settle nothing without
orders from the national Government at
MalolOS.
