A great deal of laughter was created
by delegate who suggested that Gen.
b. Tarsney of Iowa, who has just re-
turned after a stay of eighteen months
in the Philippines, should be placed
on the committee as a representative
of the Philippine Islands. The chair
ruled the motion out of order, how
ever.
Col. M. W. Fitzgerald of West Vir-
glnia, one of the most eloquent among
the number, amused all by announcing
that as his colleagues had not arrived
he would appoint himself upon the
resolution committee, so he might serve
with Jerry Simpson and Senator
Butler.
The convention adjourned until 9
O'Clock.
At O'Clock none of the committees
were ready to report, however, and
the chairman turned the meeting over
to the musical director, after an ad-
journment had been taken by the con-
vention until to 9 o'clock Thursday
morning.
The Rev. Mr.. Hatch (colored) of
Iowa was introduced as a man who
wished to sing some songs of his own
production. He sang two selections,
"Ragiola, the Slave Girl of LULU
and "Mack's Been Too Long in That
Chair" which elected much applause
from the audience.
The selection which caused the great
est demonstration was a suite made
up OF three Filipino airs, composed by
native musician, educated by the
spaniards. "Aguinaldo's March,"
which, Leader Landers explained,
would have become the national air
OF the republic had the Filipinos been
allowed to establish one, was particu-

ing. By the courtesy of H. W. Saw

Filipino brought by the band from
Manila, sang the national air and was
encored repeatedly. Cries of " Well
give you republic yet" and "McKin-
ley hasn't got a chance to Christianize
him with bullet" greeted the dark
skinned lad as he stepped to he front
of the platform. Two solos, one by
Mr.. Covalt the cornetist and one by
Mr.. Davis on the piccolo, were received
enthusiastically.
The Minnehaha Mandskor sang a
variety of selections, among them one
composed by H. U. Rogness, a member
of the organization. The singers were
heartily applauded.'
Several speeches were made, a par
ticularly lively one by Delegate Hop
kins of Michigan.
Willmar tribune., 1900-05-16

A committee to select member of
the delegation to present the name of
Charles A. Towne to the convention
was appointed. The chairman also
appointed a committee, consisting of
Scott Mcdonald, F. G. Gibbs and M.
r. Murray, for blooming" purposes.
Half an hour before the time set for
the first session of the convention the
Minnesota delegation formed in a dou-
BILE line and, headed by band,
marched to the convention auditorium.
Each member carried flag and a tin
horn. Two shields with the names of
"Bryan and Towne' and two banners
with the pictures of the prospective
candidates were carried. The delega-
tion was the first to arrive in it's place.
After the first session the Mime
sotans held several consultations,
when members Of other delegations
we're invited. It is reasonably certain
that had no Northwestern state taken
the lead in the matter, it is doubtful if
a nomination would have been made.
or if made that the choice had fallen
so unanimously to Towne.

Beautiful spring weather greeted the
people who attended the big conven-
tion. Elaborate preparations had been
made by the citizens of Sioux Falls
for the entertainment of the visitors.
All the principal streets were pro-
fusely decorated, and were illuminated
at night. Three bands were in attend
ance and furnished music upon the
streets and at the convention hall. In
short, the Sioux Falls people deserve
much credit for the manner in which
they provided for the entertainment OF
visitors to the Peoples National Con-
vention. The convention tent was
nicely arranged.
At 2:17 o'clock Wednesday afternoon
Chairman Butler called the convention
to order. Prayer was offered by
Bishop O'Gorman of Sioux Falls.
After patriotic airs by Fifty-6rst Iowa
Band, Chairman Butler introduced
Hon. A. E. Lee, the noble and honored
Peoples party governor of South Da-
kota, who gave an address of well
come. The Governor reviewed the

FusIoNIsTs in TROUBLE.
Can Not "Do Business With the
Supreme Court"

Special to the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Mont, Oct. 16.-The supreme
court today passed upon the application
from Deer Lodge county for writ of
prohibition to prevent County Clerk
Martin from printing the independent
democratic nominees on the official bal.
lot in the democratic column, and the
application of Edward Scharnikow for
the same sort of writ to prevent the
secretary Of state from certifying Well
ing Napton's nomination as nominee OF
the democratic party for judge of the
Third district. Both writs were dis
solved for lack of jurisdiction, the court
contending that a writ of prohibition

missed the m andamus secured by
Scharnikow against the secretary OF
state to compel him to certify Scharni-
kow's nomination as the regular nolni-
nee. The court briefly announced it's
decisions in the three cases from the
bench, and will probably hand down
written decisions later in the day. and
also pass upon the Kennedy mandamus.
The decision shuts Scharnikow off the
ticket as a democratic candidate. The
Ravalli election case may also be de-
cided some time today.
j. B. Clayberg has applied to the court
for writ of mandamus to compel Reg
istry Agent James r. Wyne of Townsend
to register one Joseph Gehret, who regis
tered two years ago. The court/lssued
a writ returnaible tomorrow at p. M,
when the arguments will be heard. This
proceeding is for the purpose of testing

LOSS WILL never BE KNOWN
GALVESTON LOSS FROM SIX TO twelve THoUsAND-PEoPLE
NO LONGER IN WANT.

New York, Oct. 16.-Gov. Joseph D.
Sayers of Texas, who is here attending
the bazaar for the benefit of the Calves
ton sufferers, said last night:
"The horror of Galveston has been in
no way overestimated. The most con-
servative now issue the loss of life at
5000, and the estimates run all the way
from this minimum to maximum of
10000. The truth will never be known,
for beyond question hundreds We're swept
away and the bodies sunk at sea. The
property loss is in the millions-in the
tens of millions, indeed. A great part OF
the city was destroyed, and it was all
damaged. The business section suffered
the least, but here also large sums must
be expended to restore the buildings ana
streets. Thanks to the generosity Of the
people of all sections of the United
States the people of Galveston are no
longer in want. They have recovered
from the first shock of the disaster and
are all at work to restore the city to it's

two or three days OF conference with
these / came away entirely free from
doubt concerning the triumphant re-
election of President Mckinley.
Mckinley will carry every state he
carried in 1896, with the possible excep-
tion of Kentucky. In addition he will
carry Kansas, Wyoming, South Dakota
and Washington and the electoral vote
IN California beyond any question OF
doubt. OF the remaining states carried
by Bryan in 1896, Nebraska, Colorado,
Utah, Idaho and Nevada may be classed
as doubtful
The conditions in Montana are well
known to the people here.
No, there Is not one doubt whatever
about New York, according to the best
opinion and judgment of well informed
men. Mckinley will carry the state. In
fact, the Bryan people have commenced
to run in all parts of the country. A
large percentage of the democratic party
does not wish to win with the popu>
llstic mortgage on the party. A con-
siderable portion of the democrats be-
lieve in letting well enough alone.
The contrast between the conditions
during the last democratic administra-
tlon and the present republican admins
tration does not leave any room for
question as to the wisdom Of continuing
President Mckinley at the head Of the
gOveEnment for the next four years"

tion Of official duty in regard to the pros
ecutiOn of the Bitter Root Development

pluck in the face of calamity merit the
highest praise. 1t is really wonderful
the courage they are showing. l shall

to Texas as soon as my duties in con-
nection with the bazaar are ended.'
In response to an inquiry as to
whether in his opinion the new Calves
tom could be made safe from the danger
of a future storm, Governor Sayers said:
II think that much can be done look
ing to the safety of the new city, but I
do not believe that there will be a repe-
tition of the frightful hurricane that
visited US. If a storm of such awful
proportions should strike this city, it
would utterly wreck it. You do not APP
preciate here the tremendous strength OF
the elemnts as it was shown at Calves
ton. No safeguard of human construc-
ton could have withstood it. But such

that the soldiers evidently meant busi-

ness, slowly began returning toward
Tamaqua. Mother Jones vehemently
protested against the action of the troops
in stopping the men, but she was.shut off
and ordered to move on. The McAdoo wo-
men had to be almost pushed along, SO
slowly did they walk. They continually
jeered at the soldiers, called them all
kinds of names, and threatening them
with punishment if they should dare to
visit McAdoo. 1t took from 8 o'clock
until after to drive the crowd back to
Ta1nlaGua.
During all this time the identity of the
troops was unknown, on account Of the
darkness and it was reported through
the crowd that they belonged to the 18th
regiment, Of Scranton. The soldiers were
really members of the Fourth regiment,
which had been stationed at Shenandoah
for three weeks. Eight companies of the
regiment left Shenandoah at 1890, leav-
ing two companies behind. Brigadier
General Goblin was in command. On their
arrival at Coaldale three companies,
under command of Colonel O'Neil, was
sent out to meet the south side marchers.
These companies We're left at Coaldale
while two companies, under command of
Gen. Goblin, came here. When the SOL
diers had driven the strikers over the
mountain one company was sent back to
COaldale where the soldiers boarded coal
cars and We're sent to Tamaqua to quell
any disturbance the scattering strikers
might stir UP there. Further along the
road company was deployed to protect

that distance, which formerly stood at

pluck. In the sixth mile his motor broke

STRIKE WILL END SOON.
General Belief That Trouble Is About
Over.

New York, Oct. 16-Local coal dealers
say that the great strike is fast nearing
an end and that the miners will go back
to work within week. The heads of
the big coal carrying roads say little to
confirm such an opinion, but one of
them, after being pressed for his own
views. intimated that there would be a
settlement in the near future Others
laid the responsibility on President Nit
chell, saying that he has not yet in
formed the officials of the results of the
Scranton convention.
Many rumors have been in the air.
One story was that a gigantic coal
strike was planned for next April, in
which both anthracite and bituminous
higher wages. The hinge upon which
the story turned was the resolution
that the wage schedule as demanded
by the miners was only to obtain until
next April, after which time the agree
ment between the several coal mine
operators and their employees will ter
inmate. 1t is expected that should the
miners in both hard and soft coal mines
unite in declaring strike, the paralysis
that would follow would put the miners
in a place to dictate terms on short no
tice. President Maxwell of the Central
Railway of New Jersey took a rather
optimistic view of the situation He said:
"The action of the Scranton conven-
tion indicates progress toward a settle
ment, but I am not in position to say
when 1t will come. The miners appear
to look on conditions with more con-
servative views than was at first ex-
pected. I have had no formal notice
of the conventions propositions and only
know of them through the newspapers"
Wholesale prices for coal have
stiffened. This is due, it is said, to the
fact that wholesale dealers feel that the
strike will soon end and wish to get
still bigger margin while it is yet
possible. Retail prices range from $6. so
to $6.75 for white ash and 81 to 1925
for red ash delivered to families. The
