The dog watch" of the Naval Vet.
Grams at Y. NJ. Q. A. Building Monday
evening was attended by about 200 ship
mates, many bringing their families and
friends, who seemed to enjoy the proceed
ings fully as much as the veterans.
Commodore Geo. L. Seavey, of the Ma
tional Association of Naval Veterans, was
called to the stage by Chairman II. II.
L. Foss, who presented him with a medal
on behalf of the Association. CommO-
dore Seavey responded briefly, thanking
the shipmates for the handsome gift.
The program was made up principally
of musical numbers. Two addresses were
made. The veterans showed their ap-
proval of the doctrine of expansion when
Charles Brown, of Farragut Post, spoke
of the brighter days for the people of the
Philippine Islands under the American
flag.
Chairman Foss won the approval of the
veterans by giving some statistical figures
relating to the pensions granted the naval
veterans.
SONS OF VETERANS MEETING.
In Memorial Hall the Sons of Veterans
on Monday night carried out we'll
planned program. They acted as hosts
for several score of old soldiers, and en-
tertained them with patriotic addresses
and songs. Sentiments of patriotism were
mingled with the words of welcome in
speech and song, and the veterans who
had come from all parts of the country
were shown that their deeds of valor in
the civil war were to be kept alive by
the younger generation. Commander Will
liam Z. Hull, of the Illinois Sons, was
the Chairman.
William T. Curtis, Past Commander of
the Illinois Division, Sons of Veterans,
delivered the address of welcome. Col.
]. e. Cecil. of Lincoln Post, G. A. R., was
guest of the junior organization, and
was called on for a speech. He paid a
generous tribute to the Grand Army of
the Republic, and called on the men of
that organization to teach their SONS the

told more eloquently than words the sac

which they marched.
The Third Division was made up en-
tireiy of the Naval Veterans. Many of
them were in uniform, but others were
dressed in civilians clothes, and looked as
if they had prospered since the time they
doffed the navy blue.
In the reviewing stand were many no

Darlington, 'the Drummer Boy of Shiloh,
awoke memories of the past by giving the
long roll and a number of the drum calls
to battle. The veterans waved hats and
handkerchiefs when the old familiar calls
echoed through the hall. Col. J. III. Dav-
idson presided, and lengthy musical
program was rendered.
ARMY OF THE POTOMAC CAMPFIRE.
The Campfire of the Army of the Poto-
mac, held Wednesday night in the Medin-
ah Temple Hall, was a brilliant success.
There were addresses by Gen. Nelson a.
Miles and Gen. Daniel Sickles, both of
which were checred to the echo. The pro-
hCerS entered the hall, and upon their ar
rival canes and hats were thrown into the
air, while the applause was deafening.
Gen. Sickles walked with the aid of
crutches and had to be assisted up the
steps of the platform. Both Generals ex-
pressed their gratitude at being able to
be called members of the Army of the Po-
tomac. and Gen. Miles referred to its rec
ord as the best of any division of the Un-
ion army. The program was varied with
music and song.
OTHER EVENTS.
A sham battle off Lincoln Park on the
water attracted thousands on Monday af-
ternoon. There was n very lively technical
combat between the Revenue Cutters

by that party. In Montana, for instance,
the populists had double The voting
strength of the democrats in 1894, and
the latter were begging humbly at their
feet for political help. Fusion revived
the drOoDing democracy into life and it
turned upon it's ~benefactor and devoured
it. The result is. the humiliating spec

going from this state to the alleged party
convention at Sioux Falls, for the pur-
pose of publicly cenfessing that their or
ganization has neither the decency nor
the dignity to claim a place in the prcsi-
Dental race in vindication of the prin-
ciples they profess to hold.
Other states have had experiences of a
similar t~ype-notably Minnesota and
Iowa-thus emphasizing the political
rectitude of the party position taken BY
Barker and Donneliy. Populists should
either go over into the democratic party,
boots and baggage. or they should stand
by the colors of the Cincinnati
ton. No self-respac.ing man can toler-
ate the ridiculous farce performed at
Sioux Falls. The duty of the honest pop
ulist is plain.

REPUBLICAN, CAUcUSES.

The Butte Miner this morning sprung
a sensation on the public, anent the re-
publican caucuses held in this city last
evening.
1t appeals with considerable vigor to
it's purely imaginary department for ma
terial to work with.
While the caucuses passed off prac-
tically without any contests to speak of
except here and there where personal
ambitions clashed-and the meetings
were we'll attended by the active work
ers of the party, the Miner has made
the phenomenal discovery that ex-Sen-
ator Mantle and his friends were
"downed'' in the political exercises of
the evening"!
AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Mantle and
his immediate political associates did
not attend the caucuses at all, and took
no personal interest whatsoever in the
outcome of those meetings.
Mr.. Mantl is still the official head of
the silver republican party of Montana,
and whatever his political sympathies,
it woul be manifestly inappropriate for
himself n party friends to lake an
active part in republican caucuses, until
he shall have properly closed his official
duties as chairman of the silver repub-
lican organization in this state, and re-
tired from that position.
Therefore, while Mr.. Mantle and his
friends are warmly interested in the
republican party can alone bring to this
state under existing conditions, it would

for the benefit of that organization which

Mr.. Wharton Barker is a journalist of
rare ability, and has acquired an excel

topics of the day. Despite his eccentrici-
ties of argument, and l~ong-drawn con-
illusions. he YIELDS an able n interest

exponent of populism in the country to-
day.
His running mate, Mr.. %Ignatius onnel-

author of nan popular productions, and
as the leading Baconian of the century.
In his Great Cryptogram-in which he en-
deavors to show hat Lord Bacon wrote

that Bacon was naturally intended for ia

Of that organization. further than to ex-
press the hope that at all times it's work
may be in line with the welfare of the
public and the best interests of the
people.
With the minimum amount of personal
friction in the caucuses last night, and
with little at tax further than laying
the foundations for the unanimous re-
nomination of President Mckinley, the
Inter Mountain fails to detect in the
situation the political cake-walk to
which the esteemed Miner SO graphically
alludes.
No fractional contests obtruded them
selves into the situation, and in all prob
ability the delegates named at the pri-
maries will prove loyal to the princi-
pies of the national republican party,
thus laying the foundations for the 0 n
troll of the state, and it's ultimate re-
demption from the scandalous condi-
tons which the democracy has inflicted
upon it.
In common with many thousands of
good citizens, the Inter Mountain looks
forward to a republican victory this fall
as of supreme Importance to the future
welfare of this state.
But this paper has no personal con-
Germ with the party machinery through
which such results are to be attained.
The principal part of the Sioux Falls
convention consisted in one Kelly being

Kelley been pale with excitement and
Patterson flushed with anger, it would
