Macrum, who sneaked out of
Pretoria when responsibilities
came to his position, has in
formed the yellow journals that
the English interfered with his
official communications. AS he
represented the United States
government it would occur to
some that it would have been
good taste to make his complaint
to the proper authorities. But
he evidently didn't have much
confidence in such a flimsy af
lair as Uncle Sam stands for, so
he quit his job and caem home
to tell the papers about it.

England probably needs de-
feat once in while, and many
people of this country apparent
" hope she will fail in her pres
ent South Africa campaign,
But when England really needs
a whipping it is our opinion that
the United States is the proper
nation to administer it. That is
a good friendly feeling to dis
play. This country can trim up
England, and it is the only ma:
.tion that can or should do so.

this was a billion dollar country.
Indications are that it is now a

WEYERHAEUSER WILL MANUFAC
TURE.

+ The Seattle Post has the fol-
lowing in regard to the opera
lions of the Weyerhaeusers on
the coast:
The Weyerhaeuser purchase
of 900, OUOacres of timber lands in
. Washington was made not for
specula purposes, but solely
with the view Of establishing
: lumber and manufacturing
plants. This authorized state
ment was made by Frederick
Weyerhaeuser, head of the big
syndicate. at the Rainier Grand
hotel yesterday afternoon, and
is the first expression made by
any member Of theparty regard
ing the policy of the largest
I lumber interest on the Pacific
coast.
The party left in the after
noon for Tacoma and from there
will return directly to st. Paul.
"Every foot of timber land
the Weyerhaeuser syndicate
owns in Washington" said Mr..
Weyerhaeuser, was purchased
! with the view # locating saw
mills and manufacturing plants
here. We have not an acre we
shall hold for speculation, I'm
less it should happen that some
one wants a portion of our land
and is willing 10 pay us profit.
"We are all lumber manufac-
\ turers and want the land for
ourselves. I have several sons,
and I want to establish them in
the lumber business on the coast.
We shall build number of mills
on our property, and 1 shall
begin as soon as we can deter
mine which are the best sites for
transportation facilities, etc.
(. "We have not decided on any
location. We have been at
Everett, and may put in a plant
tucIe. 1ueTe are Iuduy Ol1eT
sites we have under considera-
ton but none will be determined
upon until later. The object of
4 our visit here is to look over
sites and find out just what we
have. After this has been done
we shall begin putting in our
plants, and continue it just as
long as the lumber business of
\ the coast will warrant it.
III 1T is our intention to move

standing in the doorway of John A.

hands of mortal man could have made
it. Many pieces of sheeting and raft
ers were blown hundreds of yards,
breaking many small windows and do

trees destroyed. The telephone service
is badly crippled.

at an early hour to-day. At first it
was thought that all the guests had
escaped from the burning building,
but a search after the fire had been
gotten under control resulted in the
finding of the bodies of Lafayette Car
ney and Sherman Deboray of West
Sparta, on the third floor 1t is thought
woman also lost her life, but her
identity is unknown and the body has
not yet been found.
Miss Schreiner, a waitress employed
in the hotel says she was awakened by
hearing two men plotting to set fire
to the hotel. The men were in an al
ley that runs along the side of the
building. She arose and saw the men
running away and almost Immediately
the building was destroyed to be on
fire. The financial loss is $4,000.

that the results were surprising but
feebly expressing it, and great was his
victory and that of the party, not
withstanding the fact that the ultl-
mate object was not attained, and had
not three States of the Union deserted

gone into the camp of the enemy. the

West Virginia only awaits the dawn

will shake off Republicanism as the
lion shakes the dew from his name
Now that the clouds have rolled by
and the coming success of the party
of the people casts its shadow before,
the followers of Mr.. Bryan in 1896 with
a vast army Of new converts auani-
mously demand that he be made the
leader of the Democracy in 1900. 1t
was he that shaped the policy of the
party in 1896, and his was ths master
mind that moulded the party plat
form. Upon the platform OF 1896 With
Mr.. Bryan as its leader the Democracy
of 1900 must win or lose. 1t is there
fore absolutely essential that delegates
10 the hdQSdS lily COAktAllon DC SC
lected with reference TO their formed
and expressed opinions, and that only
those in full sympathy with Mr. Bry-
an and the Chicago platform be
elected.
In 1896 William N. Kineaid, our own
William, of Cameron, was honored
with a seat in the Chicago conTen-
ton and was by that body made a
member OF the committee on resoln-
tons, was an ardent supporter OF Mr..
Bryan and took an active part in max
ing the platform. In the committee
room we find the Hon. David B. Hill
opposing with might and main the
adoption of the platform by the COM
mittee and Mr. Kineaid measuring
swords with him in advocating its
adoption, and ii results are TO be
counted in summing up Mr.. Kincaid
was the victor.
That Mr.. Kincaid is in full synpa-
thy with his party is thoroughly post
ed in politics, and thoroughly coHoe-
tent to represent this district or the

A Suggestion.

To the Editor of the Register
Sir:-Four years ago at the date Of
the meeting of the Democratic party
in convention at Chicago, the party
was without leader, without a plat
form, and without hope of success.
The Carlisle administration
had had surrendered soul, body and
breeches TO the money monopoly OF
Wall street, wrecked the party and
scattered the fragments TO the four
winds. New York had lined up with
the common enemy and could no long
er dictate the policy of the party or
control the action of the party in nam
ing a leader. The course of the Re
public is westward, and inStinctiyely
the Democracy turned to the great
West for a leader with the ability,
the will and the courage to gather to-
gether the scattered fragments, unite
the party. into one whole, place it upon
a solid basis within the land marks
blazed by Thomas Jeherson, Benton,
Calhoun and others, and start it once
more upon the highway of success
with renewed life and vigor.
The Chicago convention in its wis
dom imposed that duty upon a young
man who, from that instant, became,
and remains, the star actor upon the
stage of American politics. History
both written and unwritten, bears tes-
timony to the manner in which the
task imposed was performed. Never
did man enter upon the discharge of
a solemn trust more earnestly, zeal
ously, and faithfully than he. Never
did leader fight the battle of his fol-
lowers with greater skill, wisdom, for
titude and power of endurance than
xMaS fought the first battle" 70 say
