SWEARING THEM IN.
The oath of office was administered

o'clock today when Secretary of State

who had run the gauntlet of the door
keepers, and the mems gallery was
crowded to standing room only There
were very few spectators in the ladies'
gallery.
The house rose and Colonel Buckner
of Baldwin, who has been decided on for
chaplain of the house, offered a short
but fervent prayer, remembering in his
petition the legislature, the state Off

permission being granted, he yanked
the receiver down and putting to his
mouth instead of his ear he shouted
into it, ''Hellov'
He did not know what to do next
so he waited. No sound came from
anywhere, except a suppressed giggle
from another part of the room.
"HellO,'' he shouted again.
Still no sound.
Hello still louder, getting red in the
face.
At this juncture one of the onlookers
took pity on the new conner and showed
him how to operate the telephone.

FOR
THE ST. PAUL.
The Big American Liner Is Con-
siderably Overdue.
Incoming Steamers Report
Stormy Weather.
SEEN ON WEDNESDAY Y
Eighty-Six Hours Out in a
HEAVY Storm.
SEEN ON WEDNESDAY
Had Made But IL 1-2 Knots an
Hour So Far.

New York, Jan. 10-Three Transatlan-
tic steamers, namely Geer, from Bre-
men; Pomeranian, from Glasgow, and
the Boston City, from Bristol and Swan
sea, arrived at quarantine this morning
and reported unusually rough and
stormy weather on the Atlantic. Moth
ing was seen of the belated American
liner st. Paul now overdue from South
ampton.
The following information comes by
cable: Steamer American saw the st.
Paul on Wednesday, January 4, p m,
in latitude 4.43; longitude 20, during
heavy Storm The position given is
1850 miles from The Needles. Allowing
for difference of time the st. Paul had
been out Sc hours from The Needles
and had averaged over 121a knots.
Either the ST. Paul or in her place the
New York, will maintain the regular
sailing from New York on Wednesday.
The American which is reported as
having spoken the st. Paul, is probably
the British steamer American, which
left New Orleans for Liverpool, Decem-
ber %. Going at the rate of speed at
which she was going when sighted she
would probably reach port on Wednes-
day.

STAY RESIGNED.
Clay Center PopuIists are Done
With Senator Hanna.

The controversy over the resignation
from Clay and Dickinson counties,
reached another stage this morning by
the arrival of a statement from the
parties in whose hands Senator Hanna
placed his resignation. The statement
indicates that Senator Hanna's con-
stituents intend to see that he "stays
resigned" It reads as follows:
ITO whom it may concern, and espec-
tally to the Kansas State Senate:
I'VE, the undersigned respectfully
state that on January g. 1899, at 10:45
p. M, arrived in this city, and, immed-
lately on his arrival on the platform at
the Rock Island depot, he placed in the
hands of George Mccormick his resig-
nation from the office of state senator
from this district, and at the same time
said Gin Substance): I want you to
place this resignation in the hands Of
Porter Hemphill, secretary senatorial
committee, and have him send it right
down to Governor Leedy.' He further
said to Chas. "A. Southwick, editor of
the Clay Center Dispatch: i want you
to see that Mccormick does as I have
instructed him. There was not a word
said as to limitation or reservation
"At a meeting the following evening,
of such of the best and most trusted
members of the Populist party as could
be notified in so brief a time, it was
decided best for all concerned that Mr..
Hanna'S instructions be carried out.
Secretary Hemphill was instructed to
take the resignation to Topeka Sunday
morning, and get it to the governor,
which he did.
There was no violation of instruc-
tionS nor good faith on the part of the
committeeman. The remarks above
quoted were made in the presence of the
chairman of the Populist county COM
mittee, of DR.. c. w. Trice, and others.

''B. T. HEMPHILL,

"GEO. w. MCCORMICK"
J. NJ. Lewis, Governor Leedy's private
secretary, who received both the resig-
nation and the telegram recalling it,
made the following statement today:
Senator Hanna in asking the senate
to allow him to retain his seat, notWith-
standing the fact that his resignat ton
was accepted by Governor Leedy bases
his request on the statement that he
te1egraphed Governor Leedy asking
that he be allowed to withdraw his res
ignation prior to it's acceptance. The
facts are that Hanna placed his resig-
nation in the hands of his committee
and his committee sent the resignation
to the governor with the statement that
they had held a meeting and voted almost
unanimously to present the resignation
to the governor with the demand that it
be accepted at once. The resignation
was presented by the secretary of the
committee and accepted by the COVER
nor 1t will be readily understood that
as the committee presented the resigna-
ton it could only be withdrawn by the
same parties"

AN UNHOLY WAR.

In recent address to the Univer-
sal Peace Union, the Rev. DIR. Joseph
My, of the First Unitarian Church,
of Philadelphia, said:
"Of our present war in the Philip
pines can only speak in terms of ut
most horror and reprobation. 1t
seems to me to have no justification
whatever. 1t is war Of aggression,
pure and simple. Mr.. Frye said last
night in New York the Philippine
territory is honestly ours'-'ours, as
Mr.. Croker said; 'by right of con-
quest but there is not even that
right. The islands have meyer been
conquered by us nor even by SPAN.
But even if we succeed in conquering
them (as l suppose we shall go on to
do, that will give us no right over
them. The burglar who oVercoiheS
householder and secures his booty
has no more right to it than before
he entered the house. Admitting 1t
was right for us to destroy the Span
ish feet, that act gave us no right to
annronriate the lands of the FilipinOs,
and to impose on them a government
not invited nor accepted by them
selves. There was never a more alb
surd, as well as unprincipled, bargain
since Judas betrayed his Master, than
ours to buy from Spain for 100000,
600 the title to subjugate the Fill.
pinos. 1t was not even necessary;
neither the exigencies nor the laws of
war imposed such payment upon
rs"

Shenandoah took no part in the
recent convention at Richmond. it
was well that size did not. Our peo-
pie. W. believe, are, so far as they
have give the subject attention,
heartily in favor of electing l. 5.
Senators by the people. Trey
however, look upon the plan with
some misgivings, as the candidate
would be chosen by convention, and
the democrats of Shenandoah have
not the most unlimited confidence in
the purity of conventions. On the
choice of the next Senator, there Is
no open expression OF opinion. The
county is naturally opposed to Mr.
Martin, because they believe that he
was chosen 10y the Legislature against
the sentiments of the people OF the
State. They are really indifferent
upon The subject. Tie truth is that
they have little confidence in Legis
latures and less in conventions, anC
are perfectly willing that this battle
shall be decided by otl ers. They
have their hands full in preserving
harmony in the ranks at home with
ont engaging in any foreign wars at
thi. particular time.

Jubilee. The natural inference would
be that the government is at peace
and the people are called together TO
rejoice over that fact.
But such is nvt the truth. The

encouraging to them to learn
that their friends at home are happy
and are ioyously celebrating a peace
iubilee. The enthusiasm for the oc-
casion has been kept IN cold storage
for some time, and will be used as
circumstances may demand. The
citizens of Washington as well as tho
visitors will be expected TO enthnS-
astically sing: "There will be a hot
time in the Philippines tonight"

Mr.. Bryan says that no man can
assume TO speak for the democratic
party, brt he expresses the opinion
that none of will live long enough
to see the free silver plank taken out
of the platform. 1t is very evident
that such remarks plea no class bet
ter than they do the republicans; for
the republicans well know that their
marty will escape the penalties Of the
blunders ofthe administrations long
as the democrats cling to the free
silver heresy. Mr.. Bryan is a well
polished idol, but it is one which will
urove very detrimental to democratic
prospects of success. 1t will, how
ever, tax Mr.. Bryan's powers OF en-
durance to keep this issue before the
American people, when there are
others ofso much greater Importance.
DIR. Bryan very properly recognizes
the fact that if he succeed IN getting
another nomination, it must be upon
that issue. He will keep it before the
people, if it BE- possible. Should the
marty, however, determine TO stand
upon real democratic principles and
fight square battle against imperial
ism, Mr.. Bryan's chances would be
no better than that of the republican

nectIon with President Davis. 1t is
now said that he has not been and
