HANNA,s PoIITICAL F1GHr.

It Is expected that Senator Hanna viii
make the greatest political fight of his
life in the Ohio Republican state conven-
ton which convenes this week at the state
capital The opponents of the senator are
going there for the avowed purpose of
turning him down, and of practically put
ling an end to his political power
1t is said that this convention will large
ly determine who shall compose the dele
cation to the Republican national conveu-
ton next year, The programme seems TO
be to prevent either Senator Hanna or any
one of his friends from being a delegate.
The senator will, of course have some
thing to say about that. He has his forces
well in hand, and he will be very much
surprised if he doesn't come out ahead.
Ii was the intention of the antl-Hanna
faction to arrange matters so that an
anti-McKlnley delegation would be sent
10 the national convention, but they have
found out that they cannot do that. Near
ly every county has instructed its dele
cation to the state convention to vote for
a resolution indorsing the administration.
Now the anti-Hanna faction is saying that
at no time, has it had any intention of
making a fight against the President
that their only purpose is to eliminate
Senator Hanna from the political situa-
ton.
The Democrats have a good chance of
carrying Ohio this year. There is a great
lack of harmony among the Republicans
They may succeed in getting a ticket that
win unite the party and bring out a full
vote, but the indications are that they
viii not The feeling between the fac
tons is too intense to permit the leaders
to work together. If the Hanna faction Is
successful in making the ticket the other
factions win be Indifferent to the success
of it, and if the Hanna faction is
beaten it is doubtful if Hannas friends
win be as anxious for the party's success
as it would be if it had named The ticket

! and work together earnestly and energet-
ically, the chances are that they will car

Lincoln Played Waterman.

James Etter, doorkeeper in the war de-
partment, frequently occupies chair
from which he could not be induced to
part, because it was once occupied by
Abraham Lincoln when he was President
of the United States, although at the time
he acted as Waterman with badge pinned
on the lapel of his coat, says a Washing
ton special. Mr.. Etter explains the incident
by saying: "One day during the war l was
sitting here, when a tall, angular gentle
man entered the main door and asked if
the secretary was in. l told him that il
was too early for the secretary to be in
his office.
AL what hour can depend on finding
him here?' he asked. l told him, and with
a pleasant Thank you, he walked away.
Promptly on the hour the tall gentle
man assembled the steps, walked in the
door, and I was almost struck dumb when
he asked me if l would not go into the sec
retary's room and tell him to step out in
the hall I could not leave my post of duty,
and even IL l could l did not think the sec
rotary would come out 10 see him.
HE replied %, l guess he win, and as
for leaving your post, I win be personally
responsible for that. 1 am Mr.. Lincoln. and
l will simply take your badge and keen
door while you step in for me-
"Well, 1 couldn't doubt him, and he pull
ed off my badge, pinned il on his coat, and
took my chair, just like an oId-time watch
man.
"A smile played over his face as I left
him, and you can rest assured it was not
long before he and the Secretary were
holding a quiet talk in an out-of-the-wav
corner in the hail"

Capt. Hance's story.

Writing from Los Angeles of the grand
canyon Of the Colorado, a correspondent
of the Chicago Record says:
A most amusing character at the can
yon is Capt. Hance, an Old fronuersman
OF eccentric manner. who has been living
on the edge Of the gorge for twenty-five
years; most of the time in utter isolation,
and, according to mis- own confession, has
denied himself everything. even the truth.
Capt. Hance is an inveterate talker. He
talks with his whole body-hs arms and
his legs, his feet and his fingers, his
shoulders and his head, and his eyes and
his tongue. When ne tells a story he en-
ployes every member of his body, and all
his several senses.
When he hasn't anybody else to talk to
he talks to himself. He plays practical
jokes on himself tells himself funny sto-
ries and laughs at them all alone. so that
people can hear him 100 yards away. The
neisnbors say they have often heard
Hance roaring with laughter, and when
they have come up to him and inquired
what was the matter he has innocently
replied that he was telling himself a fun
ny story. Capt. Hance adveruses himself
as the biggest liar in Arizona, and is
proud of that title. He explains that he
has lived under the influence of big things
like the canyon so long that it has af-
fected his mental vision and his moral
perceptions. AS a result he INDUCES in
tales that are somewhat exaggerated, but
none the less interesting.
Capt. Hance used to claim that he built
the canyon; that he dug it out all alone
by himself when he was a boy; that he
loved to work so much that the Eastern
states did not furnish an adequate field
for his energy, so he came to Arizona
and tried his hand in making a canyon.
But he does not tell this story any more.
A year or two ago a little girl came to
the canyon and listened with eyes and
mouth and ears open TO the remarkable
experiences related by Capt. Hance, and
when he had finished telling the members
of the party to which she belonged how
he dug the canyon all by himself the child
exclaimed, Indignantly:
Il don't believe word OF it,"
my dear" responded Capt. Hance, re-
proachfully, don't you believe that 1 dug
the canyon?''
IF you dug it," replied this infant ter
rible, what did you do with the dirt?''
For once in his life Capt. Hance was
silent and says he has never told that
story since. William E. Curtis.

TRUCKERS AND COMMISSION MER-
CHANTS

The berry and vegetable season is pretty
nearly over and me watermelon season
is close at hand 1t is 10 be hoped that
the melon growers have made arrange
ments to have their melons handled by
honest commission merchants. 1t is said
that truckers this year. in this part OF
the south, have lost a great deal of money
by consign,ng their produce to
dishonest commission merchants, or
rather to men who hold them
selves out as commission merchants.
1t is a notorious fact, that in all the mar
kets there are men who endeavor TO get
consignments of fruits and vegetables with
the expectation of cheating and defraud-
ing the consigners. These pretended COM
mission merchants either make no returns
at all or make out report to the effect
that the consignment arrived in such bad
condition that nothing remained after pay
ing expenses.
1t Is remarkable what confidence some
of the truckers have in those who send
out circulars and reports of the markets
and hold themselves out as first-class
ing as to their standing or financial abl-
ity truckers will ship to them quantities
of fruit and vegetables, and, that, too,
without insisting upon any sort of secur-
ity. Under the circumstances is it at all
strange that so many of the truckers are
defrauded of the fruits of their labor?
There ought to be a general understand
ing throughout the entire truck growing
section as to who are the responsible
commission merchants in each of the mar
kets to which they ship their products.
The names of these reliable merchants
should be posted and published where the
truck farmers would see them, and cities
which are the chief markets for truck.
should compel the commission merchants
to register and to furnish references as
TO their characters and financial standing
before being allowed to do business. 1t
ought also to be so arranged that any
truck grower could get a list of the
names of the registered commission mer-
chants by the payment of a small fee
There are ways for protecting truck
growers from rascally commission mer-
chants, and the truck growers ought to
take steps for guarding themselves
against the losses to which they are now
subjected. The melon growers, particu-
larly, have had sufficient experience 20
enable them to avoid falling into the
| clutches of sharpers.

And when rest upon those dangerous
eyes,
Whose beauteous gaze like some sweet
guiding light
Draws from my heart speech where no
language strays
Ignobler thoughts are put to sudden
flight;
And all the realm Of golden silence seems
Enchanted with the touch Of heavenly
dreams.
And peace, soft-winged as aerial snow
flakes are
Der laden with respose so vainly sought
Hushes with fairy hand, and magic bar
The motion of each heart impassioned
thought:
And every moment dies away in bliss
As when the moon sought fair Endytnion's
kiss.
Here could linger happy, hour by hour.
And dream away my life's illusiveness
Prince of the look whose glance would
charm the flower,
Nor deem that earth held sweetep love
illness;
And as the sunaower turns toward the
sun
My gaze would ever follow after one.

sHEEHAN WILL TRY TT.

Late last year John Brisban Walker,
proprietor of the Cosmopolitan Magazine
announced that he intended to found a
new Democracy in New York city 10 OPP
pose Richard Croker's Tammany Democ-
racy. He hired a hail, with several rooms
attached, and stated that he would have
100000 members or more in less than
three months. He did a great deal of
talking and advertising and told his
friends that he was getting along famous
ly The other day the hall was given up
and the rooms closed. Mr.. Walker never
got as many as 1000 members TO join him
in his new departure.
Now Mr.. John c. Sheehan, one of the
Tammany leaders, announces that he is
going 10 oppose MIR. Croker and get a dele
cation from New York city to the Dem
ocranc national convention that Will sup
port the free and unlimited coinage OF
silver, The motive that moves Mr.. Shee-
han in this matter is the action taken by
Mr.. Croker removing him from his posi-
ton as a political leader of one of the
New York city distncts. Will Mr. Sheehan
succeed any better than Mr.. Walker did?
II is doubtful.

II looks as If the case Of Capt. Garter
would play an important part in the next
presidential campaign. Pretty nearly all
OF the papers of the country are having
something 80 say about it, and 70 one OF
them. as far as We have observed, defends
the President for his delay in acting upon
the finding Of the courtmartial. If his
opponents IN his own party do not use it
against him, 10 prevent his denomination,
it is pretty certain that the Democrats viii
make campaign material of il In the event
of his denomination.
The delay Of the President 10 either ap-
prove the verdict of the court or to set 1t
aside IS one of the thinss which have sur
prised and puzzled the country. The con-
clusion very generally arrived at is that
there IS some political influence that ties
the Presidents hands, so to speak. If the
President permits himself 10 be influenced
by party considerations in courtmartiai
case what interests are there connected
with the public welfare that are not likely
to be dealt with from the standpoint of
party politics? This is the question which,
IS DtiHS d5hth anu IL - WV t''e't - 'i'A-
ing a pretty deep impression on the public
mind
In the army, among both the regulars
and the volunteers. the Carter case has
been very generally talked about. The
merits Of the case have not been gone into
for the reason that they are not very wen
understood by those who are not familiar
with the testimony. The motives of the
President for holding up the case have
been the basis of the talk, and the fact
that when any one of the soldiers has
been courtmartialed since the beginning
of the war with Spain, the finding of the
court has been promptly enforced, has
served TO intensity the speculation as to
the cause OF the delay I'm acting on the
finding in the Carter case. The officers Of
the regular army particularly are said to
be very indignant at the delay. because
il seems to reflect on the officers who were
members of the courtmartial. and through
them on the other officers of the army.
This soldier element is a strong one and
Is not without its influence throughout the
country.
If 1t be true the President has permitted
politics TO influence his course in this case,
he may find later on that he has intro
duced into politics an issue that will give
him vast amount of trouble in the cam
paign next year.

Representatives of the Negroes islanders
We're the first to approach Gen. Otis with
protestatons of friendship, and to ex-
press a desire to be considered the loyal
subjects of the United States. Neverthe-
less, it was Negroes islanders who treach-
erously fired upon Capt Tilley's party
with fatal results to three members of il,
after they had themselves raised a flag
of truce. Thus we have one more illus
tration of the treacherous nature of the
Filipino, and an added reason for dealing
vigorously with the islanders until they
are thoroughly whipped.
