BELL MUST Fight ALONE
COMMITTEES REPUDI-
ATE PROCEEDING FOR CUSTER.


NJ. ]. Bell promises that the applica-
ton for a writ OF quo warranto in the
"ouster proceedings, the Sixth ward
Alderman, NJ. ]. Moriarty, will be filed
this week.
The Republican city and county cora-
mittees have absolutely repudiated the
proceedings according to the Midway
News, which says:
The Republican party of the city CT ST.
Paul will not undertake to st~Mayor
Smith or the present set Of Democratic
city officials. If the Pioneer Press ara
some disconsoiate officeholders y, insis6
upon such an enterprise they will nave
to go into it strictly on private account.
The Republican organization Will not put
a finger into it. 1t has been so decideo'
by the unanimous voice of Doth the he-
publican city committee and the RepuD-
+ lican county committee, in joint 1eSslon.
Armand Albrecht, ex-assemblyman,
who would be one of the 5enehciarles III
the event of court decision invaiidatlng
I the new charter and ousting the present
city officials, SO clearly presented the
legal status of the case that not ahother
word was spoken. Although there were
about seVenty-fVe representative Repuo-
licans in the meeting, motion asking
the former Republican city officials to
institute proceedings in the courts was
tabled without a dissenting vote.
However the courts might decide upon
a technicality of law, there is absolutely
no doubt that upon a question of politics
/ the people meant to elect Robert A.
Smith mayor of st. Paul, and did elect
him.
However the adoption of the new char
ter may affect the best interests of the
people, there is absolutely no doubt that
whether intel1igentiY or stupidity the
people meant to adopt it, and did adopt it.
Whether or not Mayor Robert A. Smith
has gone against the intent of the new
charter may well give rise to an honest
difference of opinion. But the election of
Chester A. Smith would in no sense have

If the Pioneer Press company, or any
of its employees, political or otherwise,
desire to test this question in the courts,
to undertake to saddle such responsible
ity upon the Republican organization is
| quite a different matter.

UNCLE LOREN IS CAUSTIC
SOME SARCASM IN HIS REPLY TO
ST. PAUL SUGGESTION.

There was. some irony in the reply Of
Congressman Loren Fletcher, of Mime
apolis, to the ST. Paul Chamber of Com +.
merce to its requests of last week. Mr..
Fletcher said he was between the devil
and the deep blue sea. The chamber, in
one sentence, asked the abatement of the
war taxes, and, in the next, an appro-
priation for memorial to Senator Davis.
He would do the best he could, but he
suggested that the chamber might do
patriotic work along the Iinese of devising
a scheme for the revenue, instead of The
expenditure, of the government
The chamber passed a resolution urging
congress to establish national park and
forestry reserve at the head waters of
the Mississippi.

MILITARY AFFAIRS.
Holds a Conference with Presi-
dent Mckinley.

Washington, Nov. "a. - Chairman
Hull, of the House committee on mill
itary affairs, called a meeting of the
committee for next Tuesday. He
hopes that quorum will be pres
ent and that the committee can go
to work immediately upon the out
lines of new army bill. Mr.. Hull was
in conference with the president and
with officials of the war department
upon the character of legislation de-
sired by the administration. He said
the president will communicate to
congress very fully his recommends
tions about the army, and he did not
assume to speak the presidents mind
in advance. He thought, however,
that the administration would not
be content with any makeshift legis-
lation, no proposition to continue the
present law for two years more. His
impression was that the president
wanted authority to raise regular
army sufficient for the needs of the
country, 100000 men, if necessary, the
number to be reduced when there was
no longer need for them.
Mr.. Hull said the Taft commission
had reported that $4,000 Filipinos
could be enlisted Immediately in the
army for the Philippines, and that
they would make good soldiers I'M
der American officers. There was no
fear of repetition of Great Brit
aims experience with the Sepoys, for
the Filipinos, Mr.. Hull said, have no
national feeling, like the natives of
India. Moreover, added Mr.. Hull, the
experiment of enlisting native troops
has proven successful, and there are
no more loyal nor efficient soldiers
than the natives enlisted in the Brit
ish army in India.

The New Mahaska County Town
is Booming.

p. Whitneyaso Of. Omaha, general
townsite agent for the Chicago &
Northwestern Railway Company,
has been here this week, looking
over his INTERESTS along the new line
of road observation-disclosures to Bux-
ton. He is especially gratified at the
progress Ebeing made at the new
Mahaska county 'ltown, Laconta, in
West Des Moines township.
The citizensIof this new town are
very much disappointed in the CEN
sus returns becausei it was not men
toned therein. The place has
doubled about twenty-five times in
it's populationgtin less than a year,
showing greateripercent of gain
than any other place on the map of
Iowa. The town started with one
inhabitant and has now at least %.
One store building is now complete d
and two others will Ibe built. A. O.
Hall, the postmaster, has moved his
OluSO tbOug nan uiAlC IlO
depot. E. F. Baxter, formerly of
Bussey, has purchased property ard
will build and!operate hardware
store. Thomas and Guy will have a
general store in connection with the
post office. The lstock yards have
been finished and permanent depot
will be constructed at once. For the
present the station agent is using a
side tracked box car foria depot and
has it fixed up in good shape.
The residence lots are laid out 50z
$50 feet, saud the business lots 25x13O
feet. Six lots have already been
sold, three business llotsRand three
for residences. The prices range
from SIS to $50. q The!Etown bears
promise of being aTgood country
town and trading point and will also
be an excellent shipping point.

TRADE REVIEW.
business Appears to BE CROWNS
Better Both in Activity
and Tone.

New York, Nov. 24.-R. @. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says: with rea-
sonable promptness business is recovering
without the sharp rise In general prices
which was seen in the spring, and which
vas followed by a sudden and serious trans
ltion to a more natural range. Manufac-
tured goods are rising In response to a bet
ter demand from distributing sources,
helped at the end of the week by the more
reasonable weather. Business is not yet
what ii was on the top of the wave of in
iustrial prosperity, but the working force
Is fast increasing. The ordinary measures
Of business reflects operations at all
points, but the textile markets are the
point Of least response to the improved un-
1ertone of trade.
Failures for the week were 23S in the
United States, against 191 last year, and 20
in Canada, against % last year.
Bradstreet's says; Unsettled weather
conditions have operated to chrtail retail
and jobbing distribution this week and i'm
parted a quieter tone to several lines indi-
rectly associated herewith. Stock specu-
lation, too, has been less rampant, and
last weeks record of bank clearings has,
therefore, not been equaled. There is, how
ever, little or no apparent loss of basic
strength, and, indeed, the general level Of
staple Prices has been slightly advanced.
This latter movement is most notable in
the iron and steel trades, in raw cotton and
to lesser degree in the cereals and some
hog products"

SENATOR DAVIS.
His Physicians Unable as Yet to Give
Any News That Is
Encouraging,

st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 24.-Reports
from the home of United States Sem
ator Davis Friday afternoon were to
the effect that his condition seemed
better than earlier in the day, and
he was resting quietly. The symp-
toms of the Senator's sickness, as in
dicated by Fridays bulletins, are not
encouraging. His pulse has in
creased to 112, and his increased res
piration gives much cause for alarm.
The fact that the patient is able to
sleep a good deal, although inter
ruptedly, and that he is able to take
his usual nourishment, has buoyed
up the hopes Of his family. The
physicians in attendance will not,
however, express any opinion other
than that given in their daily bull
letins. The deirium continues, and
Senator Davis is lucid only for brief
periods. The remarkable vitality dis
played by the patient during the
week is astonishing even his physi-
clans,
