Did Not Know Of the
Treacherous Methods
That Had Been Resorted to by
the Nominee.
Would be an Independent Candidate
Were Election Possible.

WcTt CieCtlOIi TOSSIDie.
Every Republican should very care.
fully weigh this matter of putting an
independent candidate into the field
desire to emphasize the fact that /
am not desirous of an independent
nomination, and can be considered as
a possible candidate only when a very
strong demand for my candidacy is ap-
parent throughout the district. In a
word-I do not want the independent
nomination, nor do | want to see a
Democrat elected to Congress, yet
would not shirk duty that might be-
come mine to perform, however disa-
greeable personally, If it become ap-
parent that the rank and file of the
Republicans of this district demanded
an independent candidate to rebuke
the methods of the late Republican
Congressional convention.
"One more word, then I have said
all care to say to the public at this
time. One circumstance of Beidfer's
nomination relating to myself may
not be known. Immediately after the
nomination / did not believe him to
have been treacherous or acting in
bad faith in trying to get the nomina'
ton after he had publicly withdrawn
| then considered the matter as the
fortune Of politics and wrote him a
note of congratulation. Later,
learned that Mr.. Beidler not only
knew of the efforts being made to Sc
cure his nomination, but took part In
securing his own nomination, even be,
ing in the city on the day of the con
vention advising mis- political friends
how to work for him. He deceived moi
only me but the Republican voters OF
the district. So when | had learned
Mr., Beidler's treacherous part, | felt
and do feel that the circumstance OF
my being deceived should nullify any
congratulation Of mine made while
was ignorant of the true circumstances
of the nomination."

WAS JUSTIFIED
In Demanding Life Of
Negro Peck.
Wadsworth Banner Thinks Akron
Officers Made a Mistake.

OF all the editorial criticisms that
have followed upon the Akron riot, the
only paper to condonc the attempt of
the crowd to lynch Negro Peck, is the
wadsworth Banner. The Banners
criticism is published below;
"The crime committed by the worth
less negro is most revolving one and
excited the laboring people of Akron to
n high degree. and mob is not to be
wondered at. But the loss of life is to
be deplored. Better far that the negro
nend be turned over to the mob
than that a general fight and shooting
should have taken place and the lives
of innocent children destroyed. Law
should always take its course where
the best interests of human life and lib
erty are at stake, but in the case of
this worthless negro, we believe the
officials of Akron would have been jus
tifjed in turning the fiend over to the

Cornelius HaIIinan Gives
His Views
Regarding the Situation In
Frozen Alaska.
No Chance For Anybody Claims All
Taken--PeopIe Starving.

Ex.CIuncilman Cornelius Hallinan
returned to his home in this city, We'd
nesday evening. from Cape Nome,
Alaska. He was driven in cab
through the mob in front of the City
building at o'clock pm. on his way
to his residence at 121 Codding St.
His first impression of the crowd was
that a political meeting was being
held.
"As locality in which to accumulate
o fortune rapidly, my impression of
Cape Nome is not very good at the
present time" he said. "When
landed in that country there were 80
600 people there. The beach diggings
had been exhausted, and every bit OF
land was staked for miles around. If
a claim Jumper was found, shooting
affray invariably followed. The town
is controlled by lawless class of peo.
pie. Murders are common. Many are
the hold ups and robberies.
"When ! arrived wages were 81
per hour for common labor, for car
penters, $150 per hour. When | left.
wages for labor had been decreased
to 60 cents per hour, and that for car
penters, 80 cents. Price of meals also
dropped from 81 and S1.50 to so cents
and 25 cents. Coal that sold for SOS
per ton now may be purchased for $40
oil and gasoline, selling at SIS per gal

MORE NEeLYs IN THE PHILIPPINES.

MORE NEElYS IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Cuba has had her Neely and Rath.
bone with their concomitants of postal
thievery and governmental plunder-
ing. Manila, it seems, 1t also to have
her heroes of the "sly hand and fat
pocketbook. w. z. Johnson, Chi
c8go editor, just returned from six
months tour in the Philippines, de-
clares that the Cuba scandals have
their counterpart there.
He charges, for instance, that while
there are several custom house agents
in Manila, one is practically dominant,
and is getting rich at government ex.
pense. A friend employed In this es-
tablishment told him, he claims, that
he expected to make at least 100000.
The charges for extra purposes above
the regular tariff and wholly illegiti
mate he found to be simply outrag-
eous, but they were demanded as the
price of only ordinarily decent service.
In many other departments. too Mr..
Johnson discovered evidences that the
government was being robbed right
and left, and he looks for an explosion
of colossal extent. But, depend upon
IT, the disaster will be postponed until
after the Presidential ballots are all

DIED..

Karen Maria Peterson, beloved wife
OF Henry Peterson, passed away last
Friday morning at one O'Clock, at
her home in the First ward. Deceased
was stricken with paralysis about two
years ago, from which she had been a
sufferer until death claimed her as
his own. She was fifty years of age,
and had been a resident of this city
for the last l3 years. A husband and
large family are left to mourn the loss
of a devoted wife and mother. Fifteen
children have been born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Peterson, thirteen of whom are
living. They are as follows: Martin,
residing near Pennock: Anthon P,
Marcus, Henry, Ludwig, William, AL
bert, Lawrence, Frederick, Mrs. Sy-
vert Osmundson, Mrs. Belle Jacobs,
and Miss Lena, all residents of Will
mAr. Other relatives are Mrs. A. Fl.
Espelien, sister, one Mr.. Christian
j. Rustad, brother, both residing at
Norway Lake; and John A. johnson,
a brother residing at Sioux Falls,
S. Oak.
The funeral occurred Monday after
n on at three O'Clock, from the Free
Lutheran church, Rey. f. E. Gynild
officiating. The ipterment was in the
church cemetery at Fairview. The
sympathy of the community goes out
t. the bereaved family.

n special school meeting was held
last Friday evening to again act upon
the bonds last issued by the Board of
Edu alton. The company to which
the bonds had been resold raised ques-
tion us to their validity and demanded
that they be again acted upon by the
dist ct. Notices for the meeting were
posted, but not published, and but few
peo. knew of the meeting. Twenty
tire persons attended however and
twenty-five votes were cast--eleven
against the bonds. Thus the bonds
wer, defeated, leaving the School
Board in an embarrassing position.
They have now the choice of calling
another meeting or allowing the dis
trict TO be sued by the contractors for
the First ward schoolhouse, who have
not been paid. It was expected that
the Board would decide which horn
OF the dilemma they would choose at
their meeting last night. The Board
mad lis mistake in not publishing: the
notice for the meeting, and the reasons
whlc.l compelled them to call the Same.
Their evident desire to have a quiet
meeting gave those who were dissatis-
fed with the Board chance TO put
up their job on it. It is clear that the
reas IN for the action of the meeting
was more to worry the Board, than
from any hope of being able to escape
paying for the work, which has al"
ready been done.,
LATER:-The Board decided to call
another meeting, notice of which IL
