DESERVING DAWSON.

Almost the Entire Population Preparing
to Go to Cape Nome.
+ TACOMA, Wash, Feb. 1S.-Late Daw-
son advices say little will be left of the
Klondike metropolis after the Nome
rush in May and June. Merchants are
closing out their places Of business, and
instead of every building being crowded
, "to let'' signs are frequently seen. Busi-
ness is dying and most Of these dealers
are going to Nome. -
Men are working on creeks for So per
day rather than take higher wages pay
able after the cleanup on the bed rock,
because they want their money in hand
when the ice goes out. Many Of these
will go down the Yukon in scows or
canoes. j. szs ar-.-
One of the greatest enterprises con-
nected with the immigration is the
movement Of the Palace Grand theater,
Dawson's largest dance hall and play
house. Charles Meadows, the proprie-
tor, has let the contract for moving the
building 2,000 miles, to Nome, the con-
tractor putting up heavy bonds guaran-
teeing it's safe delivery. The building
will be floated down the Yukon on four
barges and thence towed to ( Nome.
Other buildings will follow. =

ROOSEVELTS STATEMENT.

Appreciates the Honor but Could Not Ac-
cept the Vice Presidency.
ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 13.-Governor
Roosevelt has given out a statement rel
ative to the vice presidency, in which
he declares that he Will not accept the
honor under any circumstances. His
statement follows:
"In view of the continued statements
in the press that I may be urged as a
candidate for vice president, and in view
Of the many letters that reach me advis-
ing for and against such course, it is
proper for me to state definitely that
under no circumstances could I, Or
would I, accept the nomination for the
vice presidency. It is needless to say
how deeply I appreciate the honor con-
ferred upon me by the mere desire to
place me in SO high and dignifed posi-
ton. But it seems to me clear that at
the present time my duty is here in the
state whose people chose me to be gov
ernor. Great problems have been faced
and are being partly solved in this state
at this time, and if the people so desire,
I hope that the work thus begun, I may
help carry to successful conclusion. !"
The governor, in giving out his state
ment said:
"And I am happy to state that sena-
tor Platt cordially acquiesces in my
views in the matter.''

President Will Not Send q Mes

ment Measure " Ill Be Pushed
Through.
New Pacific Cable Measure Intro
duced by Senator Foster of
Washington.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 49, Senator Cu1-
lom was at the White House during the
day and had a conference with the pres
ident, in regard to the status of legisla-
tion before congress affecting the Ha-.
waiian islands. The president has had
under consideration the expediency Of
asking congress to pass some temporary
legislation which would enable the local
government to provide for natives whose
houses had been burned to stop the
spread of the bubonic plague, and to
succor those in distress. Senator Cul-
lom, however, expressed the belief that.
congress would very soon pass a bill pro-
viding for permanent government for
the islands, and that this measure would
be ample to meet the existing condi-
tions. The president therefore viii
await the action Of congress on the
pending bill.

natl With Good Attendance.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 13.-The 10Th an
nual state convention Of the Ohio League
of Republican clubs has assembled here
with about 800 delegates present. After
addresses of welcome and responses,
President Goldenbogen of Cleveland de-
livered his annual address, congratulate
ing the clubs on their work in the last
campaign, and urging the organization
Of new clubs and the reorganization for
aggressive work in all the. cities and
counties during the approaching presi-
Dental campaign. This is the first Re
publican state gathering during the
presidential year in President McKin-
ley's home state, and President
Goldenbogen laid stress on the
fact that factional differences Of
former years had been wiped out and
that the Republicans of President Nc
klnley's state never were in more har-
monious lines. The report Of Secretary
Spellman showed the membership
largely increased, and that Of Treasure,
Carr only a small balance. Most Of the
morning session was devoted to report:
and the appointment of the usual com
mittees. Among those who are here tt

Senator Foraker, Former Governo
Bushnell, General I. F. Mack, Genera

AN EARLY CONVENTION.
Prominent Democrats Believe 1t Goot

Prominent Democrats Believe 1t Good
Policy to Change a Precedent.
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 13.-A Washing
ton special to The Times says:
At dinner given by Representative
Caldwell, one of the guests was William
Jennings Bryan. During the converse
ton it developed that there was strong
sentiment, in which Mr.. Bryan seemed
to share, that the Democratic national
convention should be held before the
Republican national convention, on
June 10. Heretofore the party in
power has held it's convention first.
The Democratic leaders, however, think
it would be good politics this year for
the Democrats to be the first to formu-
late platform, especially the plank on
trusts, in the hope Of placing the Repub-
icans in the position of endorsing part
Of it. At the dinner, and since coming
to Washington, Mr.. Bryan has left the
impression that he prefers Kansas City
as the place for holding the next Demo
cratic national convention.

VERY HARRAssING.

Insurgents in A1bay Province, Luzno,
Il Make It Interesting For Americans. Il
4 MANILA, Feb. 13. OF late the insur-
gents in Albay province, Lnzon, have
adopted harTassing tactics against the
towns which the Americans have gar
risoned. They camp in the hills and
naintain const, It fire upon the Amer
ican outposts. When the troops sally
out against them they scatter, return
ing when the Americans retire. They
she's. bring arrows and have thus
bu "sed a large part of the town Of
Albay. Indeed, most Of the larger
towns in that province are practically
deserted, except by the garrisons.
Scarcely any of the inhabitants return
to their homes: They are camping in
the interior and it, is supposed armed
insurgents prevent them going back. 1t
is reported that there is
Much Suffering Among Them y
owing to lack of food As a result of
these conditions the hemp business in
that section is seriously hindered and
ships going for cargoes are compelled to
take gangs Of coolies to dc heir loading.
Hemp held in the interior IS quite mac
cessible. ~
Colenel Bell will take two regiments
and battery through the provinces Of
North Camarines and South Camarines,
going there on foot. Many insurgents
retreated there from Camagay and Ba-
tanga provinces. Another expedition will
soon start to garrison towns along the
north coast of the island of Mindanoa.
The guerrilla warfare continues south
Of Manila. Two attempts have been
made
To Ambush the Americans.
Colonel Schwan while returning to
Manila with his staff and an escort of
100 cavalry from Btangas was attacked
by the insurgents. The latter were
dispersed, but the Americans had five
men wounded. ..-.
| Lieutenant Colonel Beacon, with six
| companies of the Forty second infantry
had a two hours fight with General Pic
del Pilar's command, which attempted
! to ambush the Americans along the
trail through Morong province, near the
lake. Here also the insurgents were
dispersed, but the Americans had several
wounded, among them captain.
| 1t is reported that the insurgent gen.
eral, Alexandra, has recovered from his
wound and has assembled large force
near Subig.
