sey school house Tuesday evening.
Everybody is for Bryan in that NECK
of the woods.
A rousing fusion rally was heiu az
Athol last Saturday evening. hu.

we're silver republicans until they

were silver republicans until they
met defeat two years ago.
The next board of county COM
missions will be fusionists. Re
publfcafis themselves admit it.
Such stalwart men as w. w. Bush,
r. D. McKinnis and ]. w. Ryan
command the respect Of the people
Of the county and their we'll known
business qualifications will carry
them to victory by overwhelming
maiorities. We warn fusionists to
be on their guard. A few days ago
republican in this precinct made
the proposition to democrat, that
he would vote the entire fusion
ticket with but two exceptions if in
return the democrat would vote for
the republican nominees for sheriff
and probate judge. The offer was
Indignantly refused as it should
have been. Why the republican
leaders desire to get control Of
these two Offices is apparent. The
defeat Of the fusion candidate for
probate Judge would be hailed by
the old Rathdrum ring as vindi-
cation of the public charges made
against ex-republican Office hold
ers.
The sheriff's Office exercises ar
important function in summoning
Jurors for court cases. If a repub-
lican like w. A. Hart would 60 or
democrats bond in order to con
troll him and the Office, how much
greater sacrifices would be made If
order to fill the Office with repub
liCan. If there is a fusionist il
the county so short. sighted as to
have given ear for a moment to the
plea that some OF the republican
leaders are making in their still
hunt, we warn him to have care
The republican party's only hope
in eleCting a candidate this fall il
by the trick of trade; so vote you
ticket straight and teach the repub
lican party THAT if they wish t.
again gain the confidence Of tn
people they fhtist throw off tn
selfish leaders who have their owl
personal gains in view and not tn
good OF the people of the count
at large.

His remarks were directed to John
w. Peters, who was a deputy in Mr.
7 Bragaw's Office for years. Peters was
employed until recestly at slwm!l
at Seneacquoteen. He gave up his
| position there to accept one with tho
chairman of the republican county
central committee.
Why Peters was selected to do
"eXperting" work for the republican,
party is well known. He was familiar
with dill the intrigues of the office; in
| fact he had come to consider the
| auditors Office such great snap that
hhe sought the republican nomination
himself two years ago. In ''eXpertlng''
the records he no doubt examined the
list of those who had declared their
intentions to become citizens of the
United States to see whether or not
Callahan had buncoed applicants out
of SO. 90 like Bob used to do. He NJ
doubt carefully examined the bills
allowed by the county commissioners
to see whether or not there were any

examining these bills that he ascer.

that he had been instructed to keeI

one might ask him about what kind

He did not find the probate Judges
report for the second quarter of 900

jumped at the conclusion that none

about the price of abstracts, Of

Sheriff Bradbury. He did not visit
the assessors office to see whether OIL
not Joe Buckle was paying his deput,
out Of his own pocket or the county
was paying him, as was the case wher
Ryan was assessor. Peters is nov
doing "curbStone work" for the re-
publican ticket; but if he is not more
successful at that than he was with

it is very doubtful if Pease's shortage

careful examination of the record

CLAIMS AGAINST TURKEY.
Though Determined Upon Positive Action
tho State Department Is Proceeding
Cauttously-TurktahM Minister Talks.

Washington, April Cit is APP
parent that, though determined upon
positive action, the state department
is proceeding decorously and with due
precautions against being lead into
any position on which it cannot MAIN
tain in the affair with Turkey. Ali
Ferrough Bey. the Turkish minister,
said yesterday that he probably would
hear from his government in short
time concerning the American claims.
He insists that an amicable settlement
can be arranged and repeats his state
ment already published that in view
of the high esteem in which he is held
blythe sultan Minister Straus was not
justified in making the assertion that
the sultan had broken his promise
in regard to the settlement of the
claims.

CANNED ROAST BEEF.
Soldiers In the Philippines Are UsIng About
$4,000 Cana . Month. n Fresh Meat
Cannot Reach Them

Washington, April 21.-War depart
ment officials have been compelled to
resort to the use of canned roast beef
for the subsistence of the army in
the Philippines. This is due to the
fact that it is absolutely essential IL at
the soldiers shall be served with fresh
meat because of the impossibility of
providing refrigerated beef or cattle
on the hoof under existing condi,
tions. When the bulk of the army was
located near the seashore and at easily
accessible points, there was no diff
ficulty in providing them with fresh
meats, but conditions have now
changed and the army is scattered
among 100 posts in various, parts of
the archipelago, a great many of them
at considerable distance from the
nearest shipping point. There are no
cattle available and the refrigerated
beef which has heretofore formed the
principal basis of subsistence for the
troops cannot be preserved in good
condition long enough to reach many
of the inland posts. About $4,000 cam
a month are being used.

May Nominate Tom Watson.

Indianapolis, Ind. April 22.-The
Indiana populists will never fall int
line with the movement to nominate
Dewey for president on the populist
ticket. c. NJ. Walters, secretary of
the state committee, declares that the
''middle-of-the-road" populists, when
they meet in Cincinnati May q will
nominate a s5raight-out populist.
The idea of affecting an amalgamation
with the socialist democracy and
nominating Debs has fallen through.
He thinks the nomination will go
either to Tom Watson, of Georgia; A.
L. Minis, of Tennessee, or frank Burk-
EFT, of Mississippi.

NEW OUTBREAK OF PLAGUE.
Fifteen Cases, IA of Which Proved Fat~l,
Discovered In = Market In the
Heart Of Manilas

Manila, April 22.-The sudden
deaths of Filipinos and Chinamen in
Quiapo market led to an investiga,
ton, showing that is cases of the
plague, IA of which were fatal, have
occurred within week. The market
is located in the center of the city.
In black rotten wooden buildings the
keepers of the stalls live with their
families huddled together in great
filth. Some of the victims were
stricken and died within an hour.
There have been several, deaths in
other sections of the city recently,
which have been traced to infection
from the market. After all the mar
ket people had gathered together to-
day the health officers threw a guard
around the buildings and will keep
the inmates guaranteed there for a
fortnight. They will then burn the
market. The total number of bubonic
deaths are 119 Chiname0 and &C Fill.

Washington, April 21.-The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce Friday made an important
change in the Hepburn Nicaragua
canal bill, striking out the provision
for the ''fortifcation," thus pro-
viding compromise.
Following the announcement of the

though the committee on rules has

WAS A BLOODY WEEK.
The Past Few Days Have Witnessed the
Wholesale slaughter Of About 400 File
pinos-Many Taken Prisoners. %

Manila, April 2S.-Last week has
been one of the bloodiest of the war
since the first days fighting around
Manila. Authentic reports, mostly
official, show n total of 37S Filipincs
killed, IL officers and PA men cap
tured and many more wounded The
number wounded is hardly guessable.
Considering that the Filipinos entirely
lack hospital facilities, great ma
jority of the wounded will die. Prob
ably the weeks work finished 1000
insurgents. The Americans loss was
9 killed and 16 wounded. Two SER
geants and one private were killed IN
ambushes while escorting provision
trains. The insurgents have been
aggressive in almost every province Of
LuZon.

MADE THE COMPACT SOLEMN.
Two Tribal Factions In New Guinea Agree
to Become Friends and So Ate Their
Principal Chief.

Vancouver, B.. c., April s2.-For ~
gears tribal war of large proportions
has convulsed the government of the
usually peaceful natives of New
Guinea. About 1000 men, it is re-
ported, have fallen in the fights that
have occurred, but now, tired for a
'time of war, the natives have become
friends. Rev. S. B. Fellows, mission
airy, says that in order to make the
compact solemn the chiefs of both
sides ate the body of the principal
chief who had fallen. The great
chiefs widows were divided among
the remaining chiefs, dance was
held in which the natives sang that
their fighting was ended and they
would go back to their farms.
