Michigan's Governor Says He Has
Joined That Party.

Governor Pingree has asserted in
an interview that the hope of the
people in this years general elections
is in the Democratic party. The Gov
ernor has always hitherto been an
Independent Republican. Speaking of
the increasing power Of trusts, Gov
ernor Pingree said:
There is no use in hoping that the
Republican party will do anything
with them"
"Are you preparing to announce
your withdrawal from the Republican
party?" the Governor was asked.
There is no announcement about
it. only say what have said all the
while. You haven't heard me say any
thing against the Democrats for some
time. believe that the hope of the
people is in the Democratic party this
fall"

THE GREAT FIRE.
Five Square Miles Burned over in
Ottawa and Hull.


Ottawa and Hull.
The great fire at Ottawa and Hull
On Thursday and Friday burned over
five square miles of territory. More
than 1000 buildings were destroyed,
seven lives lost, sevef thousand men
women and children made homeless.
and the property loss i'd $4,000, 900,
according to, the latest estimate.
A relief committeeshas been formed
by the citizens, and this. together
with the Roman Catholic Archbishops
Of Ottawa and Montreal, will make an
appeal for relief to the country. The
most serious problem that confronts
Hull Is that of work. The majority
Of householders who were burned out
are poor and have large families. 1t
is not expected there will be employ
ment for considerable period, and
the way in which many of the poor
are going to live in the meantime is
doubtful.
On the Ottawa side fully two-thirds
Of Dalhousie Ward is devastated, and
an estimate by residents of the dis.
trict places the number who were
without roofs of their own last night
in this district at 5000. The des-
troyed property in this district in.
cluded some of the finest residences
in Ottawa, as well as a great many
Of the humb1est.
All of Hulls principal buildings
with the exception of the Roman Cath.
olic Church are things Of the past.
The buildings and land in the place
are valued at $2,70O.0oO, and Of this
amount over $1,000,000 may be put
down as loss. Then in stocks, fix.
lures, equipment, household effects
and wearing apparel there is a loss
Of nearly $3,000,000. The vast piles
of lumber which went up in smoke
may lie reckoned at $2,000,000 more
