docs the support Of Genera
Alger mean a slap al the adj
ministration" is a question that
many stauhch Republicans, whc
arc fricdblyto the General, are
asking about here. 1t has been
oddasioncd by a few newspapers
thathavc given voice to the EXPIRE
ssion Of such sentiment. Such
insinnations, while not author
lied and no doubt not countcn-
ance by General Alger himself,
are doing him far more harm
than good. The people are for
Mckinley and an anti-administra-
ton attitude on the part OF the
supporters of the General will
surely do him much harm.

From conversation with a
number Of leading Republicans
of this county regarding the com
ing contest for the u. s. senat-
orship, there appearsto be strong
sentiment against the election OF
either Mcmillan or Algcr. John
Patton, Of Grand Rapids, is most
frequently mentioned as com
promise candidate, and we pre-
dict if the latter gentleman could
be inducedto enter the race he
would have a strong following
from all parts Of thestate-

business, says his state can be
put in the sure Republican
column; and speaking Of the gem

Bryan can carry lconsider that
President McKinley's renomina-

is popular in the northwest Our
people have fallen on prosperous

always promises SO much and per-

One of the hardest game the Yorks have
had since their organization was that one
they played yesterday against the Wash
ingtons at the Washington street grounds
and it was only by a lucky chance that
they won. The two teams were very
evenly matched and a large crowd gather
ed to witness the sport. Green was in the
box for the Yorks and the hopes of the
Washington team were reposed in Reilly.
The Yorks went to the bat first and they
surprised the W~ashingtons. Reilly was in
a raw state and his arm did not get the
swing during the first inning. The heavy
batting yorks found him repeatedly and
hammered him numerically all over the
field. In the first inning alone Reilly was
hit seven times. One home run and two
doubles included. The felders also went
up In the clouds and erred repeatedly.
The result was that five runs were scored
by the Yorks before their retirement. The
Washington's tailed one run in the first
inning on Lambert's three Dagger follow

Yorks prevented the Washingtons doing
any very brilliant base running. There
