HANNA's FUTURE PROGRAMME,
He Gives Up Private business to At
tend to Politics

He Gives Up Private business to At
tend to Politics.
Cleveland, Ohio, July Ex-senator Mar
Gus Hanna intends to retire from active
business and spend his extra time in pol
tics. He is closing out all his immense
business interests. When he returns from
Europe there will be nothing except poll
tics on his mind
With great deal closed Thursday Mr..
Hanna has sold out all his business inter-
ests with the exception of pig iron, and it
is understood in iron circles that negot a.
tions are now pending for the sale of the
Hanna furnaces to the National Steel
Company.
The sale of NJ. A. Hanna's ore mines to
the National Steel Company. according to
the statement OF D. r. Hanna, includes
every mine he owned. The vessel interests
OF M. a. Hanna & Co. disposed of include
nine of the highest class vessels on the
lakes. The vast coal interests OF II. A.
Hanna G. Co. have already been transfer
red to the Pittsburg District Coal Trust.
The Globe Iron Company, of which NJ. A.
Hanna was the chief stockholder, was alb
sorbed by the Ship Building Trust several
months ago.
An official OF the firm of NJ. A. Hanna &
Co. said: "a few OIL the officials of the
present firm will continue the business as
a selling agency. The firm name will be
retained but Nj. A. Hanna will not be ac-
lively connected with the business Sena-
tor Hanna will hereafter devote his entire
time to politics.

he left behind a statement to the effect that
at the last time he was heard from the
secretary of the committee was somewhere
in the bleak and trackless Klondike region.
Committeeman Johnson Of Kansas was re-
quested to act as faetotum during the alb
sence OF the chairman. The inference
from this plainly was that the headquarters
of the committee had been temporarily
transferred from Washington to Kansas
and upon the return of Chairman Jones
the headquarters would be brought back
here.
Certainly the headquarters Of the COM
nittee ought TO be in Washington pending
the opening of hostilities in 1900. The Re-
publican National Committee. with great
wisdom, has its headquarters here at the
National Capital, where naturally are the
mainsprings of national politics. Where
fore let US hope the gentlemen now In con-
troll of the Democratic National Committee
will display equal wisdom, and open head
quarters here If removal is contem-
plated. They will be nearer the political
storm centre in this city than in st. Louis.
They will find here material at first hand
for the right sort of campaign activity.
And in view of the fact that they have de-
eided to open their press bureau IN Wash
ington We cannot understand why they
should not centralize all of the machinery
of the organization at the same
place There is plenty of room
and plenty of work for the full
force OF the party's central organization
in this city. There is neither common
sense nor political wisdom in setting up
part of it in Washington and another
part in ST. Louis.

Nebraska Politicians CIamorous for
support From Returning Troops.
San Francisco. July 29.-The First Ne
braska Volunteers. who will probably reach
port this afternoon from Manila, are the
subject Of political dispute. Governor
Poynter, Adjutant General Berry, and Con-
gresham Stark came here as the official
representatives of the State to welcome the
regiment for the Government, and brought
$1,000 to buy for the troops chest protec-
tors and such other incidentals as the
Federal Government does not furnish.
There arrived at the same time Judge
Ryan, former supreme court commissioner,
and C. G. Whedden, both prominent Re-
publican politicians in Nebraska. They
were selected by mass meeting at Lin
coin as the official representatives of the
State to receive the troops. Judge Ryan
said in an interview that Poynter and
the other Populist silver officials had
sneaked away from Nebraska TO make
themselves solid with the returning troops.
He said that the governor and all the Pop
ulists of Nebraska were in bad odor with
the troops because Governor Poynter ve-
toed the legislatures resolution OF praise
for the First Nebraska.
GCy-rncr Poynter in an afternoon pa
per replied TO Judge Ryan. He said that
Ryan was member of a commission in
Nebraska the life of which he tthe gov
ernor), terminated by veto and intimated
that is the cause of his bitterness. AS for
having to square himself with the troops,
that it was not necessary, he said as many
had written TO him and assured him of
their support. THE political situation in
Nebraska makes ii desirable said Judge
Ryan. in reply to this interview, .'for Bry
an TO weld tegether the fusion forces. Gov
erIor Poynter placed himself in a bad light
with the troops and their friends when he
vetoed that resolution os thanks and he
sees the adyisability of trying to undo the

Bring 1t to Washington.

From ST. Louis comes the report that
a movement is now on foot to remove the
headquarters of the Democratic National
Committee from Chicago to that city.
There are several features of this report
which appeal to our interest. Ore is that
the Democratic committee has any sort of
movement" on foot. Not a word had
been heard from the organization since it
met in Chicago a week or ten days ago
for the ostensible purpose OF beginning to
get ready to make preparations for the
campaign of 1900 Another is that the
committee has a headquarters" to remove.
We Gid not before know that 1t had reg
uiar place OF business in Chicago or else-
where. 1t is, therefore. gratifying to be
thus enlightened and to be relieved Of
cankering error.
We cannot help but recall the circum-
stance. however, that when, several
months ago. the Hon. James K Jones,
Chairman of the committee, departed these
shores for much needed rest in Europe.

We are not at all surprised that the paper
mill formerly owned and conducted by the
firm of Cleveland G Whitney has been sold
to the trust. II never made the superior
quality of bond paper which its late pro-
prietors exclusively dealt in. If it had
been able 10 turn out several million dol
lars worth of pulp per annum. it would
have been long time before 1t could
have piled up papyrus of the face value of
that which its former Presidential pro-
prietor could tap in his safety deposit
vault From this we learn that 1t Is
good thing TO be in the White House for a
couple OF terms when one practices rigid

predict that the Texas method will prove

There is no need for you to be over-anx-

lively cure consumption, if taken at a
reasonably early stage.
We refer to Vinol, wine of cod liver oil.
This non-secret remedy is bona vfde medi-

taste, and vinol does not upset the stom-

the greatest known rebuilder.

with Vnol have great hopes we will be
able to suppress and even cure cases Of con-
sumption, as well as other wasting dis

4 GENERAL HoUsEctEAMxe
To Be Commenced by Government Officials in
Cour D'AIeas District.

Spokane, Wash. May Miners OF
Shoshone county, Idaho. that propose
to operate during the reign OF martial
law, may do SO only on condition that
they do not employ members Of the
Cour de Alene Miners Union. This is
the martial law as laid down by Gen
Merriam and Attorney General Mayes
of Idaho. At meeting of the mine
owners in this city, today. MIR. Hayes
presented this mandate. The. owners
cheerfully promised to obey.
I'VE are going to clean ont the Cour
D'Alene," said Attorney General Hayes.
prior to his departure for Boise. II
have seen some of the mine owners, to-
day, and they have been informed by
the proper authorities that they can
not employ any one connected with a
criminal organization in the county.
The Miners Union in Shoshone county
icentains many desperadoS and crimi-
mails who have under the protection Of
the union perpetrated crimes and out
RACES. Twice has it been necessary,
because of the men and their organfZa
ton, to put the county under martha!
law. We want to stop that sort of
thing.
The owners living in Spokane allow
the union to run things and when their
property is threatened or riots occur as
n result they wire to the Governor of
Idaho to send troops to protect their
property. Some of those mine owners
know who the men were who left their
mines to go to Wardner for the pur-
pose of blowing up the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mir Thau a11nu n on
out of the mines to destroy the prop
erty of another and then TO return to
work.
We have undertaken as large a job
of criminal prosecution as was ever
commenced in the history Of the coun-
try. Trying between 200 and 500 men
is task of enormous magnitude. We
propose to push the prosecution Wig
orously however. / am obliged to go
back to Boise for few days on Off
cial business but would be back in
about a week and expect to spend the
entire summer in the Couer D'Alenes
Prisoners will be tried in the state and
the federal courts. Murder and arson
are some of the charges the state will
bring against these men and we have
hope to inflict the extreme penalty. The
state and federal authorities are work
ing amicably together in the matter
and will aid each other all possible.
Today's meeting of the Couer d Alene
mine owners was held at the Office Of
Finch & Campbell Mr.. Hayes laid
before us the ruling that union men
must not be employed" said Mr.. Finch
after the meeting. He said further
that the state authorities would ex-
pect our cooperation and we told him
they would have it. OF course we can't t
get men right away and we do not
propose TO go out and look for them.
Until men sufficient TO operate the
mines come in the mines will have to
remain closed down.
