POLITICAL LEAGUE.

Havana Letter in New York Evening Post.
Within the past few months there
have appeared on the lapels of Demo-
Gratis coats all over the State, thousands
of them, small buttons with yellow
sunhower einblazoned thereon. In the
center is black letter "L." 1t is the
emblem OF the Sunhower League, which
is being extended as rapidly as possible
and has organizations in every county
in the State. IL is conducted with much
secrecy, but one of it's principles is to
support only Democrats for office or to
vote fusion ticket only when there is a
fair division with the Democratic party
in the matter of offices. 1t is asserted
that tins organization will not be salts
fed with the donation Of the electors on
a State fusion ticket the coming fall, the
Populists taking all the State officers as

OPPOSITION TO HANNA.

From, the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin OF yes
teIday.
The hot discussion OF the Puerto Rican
tariff bill in the Republican Senatorial
Caucus yesterday revealed the fact that
some of the more prominent Republicans
in the Senate are disposed to make a
vigorous fight against Mark Hanna's at
tempt to assume the leadership of the
majority on this question. Hanna's EN-
phatlc declaration that the President
mad changed his original attitude on the
issue and that he now desired the passage
OF the measure imposing fifteen per cent.
of the Dlngey rates on Puerto Rican
products was Intellectual in sitting Re
publican opposition. The revolt against
this policy, led by Davis and Nelson Of
Mlnhesola. cuninandrd the support OF
Proctor uf Vermont; Of Galinger uf New
Hampshire; Of Burrows Of Michigan: of
Btveridge OF Indiana, and ui several
o.her Senators wlln Lave heretofore been
counted upon as adlierehts OF tile admin

tion of Republican Senator'S At the last

in the interests of party harmony to per-

do it will be because they act on the as

by the absolute removal OF all restric-
lions upon trade between the L nited

Professor G. G. Watson, agriculturist
Of the Pennsylvania station, who spent
his summer vacation in studying the
agricultural conditions of several for
eign countries, observed that the farm
ers of England were complaining bit
terly of American competition and de-
claring that the competition Of foreign
countries and the heavy taxes have
never been so severely felt in that
country as at the present time. At the
great agricultural fairs American farm
machinery was much in evidence, and
the agents boldly asserted that they
possessed the bulk of English trade.

Improving the Public Library i.

Through the combined efforts of the
State Library Commission, the public
school teachers and the ladies of the
Culture Club the public library of this
city is destined to become much more
useful. The books have been thorough
ly overhauled re-indexed, many of them
repaired and rebound, some new volumes
added and the whole library placed I'M
der more systematic rules. A new sys-
tenn will also be put in use for issuing
the books, known as the card method
and more complete record kept of all
transactions of the library. In order to
place every thing in readiness for the
new plan of work the library will be
closed for few weeks, and all books
that are outstanding should be returned
at once in order that when the reopening
occurres all the contemplated improve
ments will have been completed.

nothing can be said except in his praise.
He is associated with his father and
possesses good business qualifications

by their friends come true, they will live
to see many years of uninterrupted hap

The warehouse of r. W. Davis COM
pleted its packing of the 1899 crop of to-
bacco Saturday. About 1900 cases have
been put up of very good tobacco, in
texture and color The assorters pre-
sented Mr.. Davis with an elegant Morris
chair as token of esteem in which they
held their employer. Prairie Coun
tryman.
The Vernon County Censor thus
speaks of some big tobacco crops:
Martin Root will have cultivated on
his farm % acres of tobacco this season.
S. G. Jackson and O. A. Kalvestran will
work 10 acres of the amount, Young
Palmer 8, and Mr.. Root will care for the
balance of five acres. j. [. Hayes will
also have grown on his Jefferson farm
twenty or more acres, the amount he has
cultivated the past few seasons. Smith
Brothers will have their usual amount
of about twenty acres. These three
parties are among the largest growers in
the county.
After run of nearly Ia weeks the
Culton packing for this season has been
completed in this village. During the
time, between $4,000 and $4,000 has been
paid for abor, and in addition about
thousand dollars for Incidental expenses
to local business men. At the compile
ton of work, Robert Carr, in behalf of
the employees, presented Foreman Jones
with magnificent rocker as token of
their regard for him, and for once in his
life Mr.. Jones could not find anything to
say.--Milton junction News.

Lawyer Towne Meets Admiral Dewey

Lawyer IoWne meets Admiral Dewey.
Among the thousands who were in
Chicago early in the week to do homage
to Admiral Dewey was J. P. Towne of
this city, who called upon his college
classmate and was received with cordi-
atty. They talked over old times back
in Vermont when they were boys to-
gether and had good time. Somehow
Mr.. Towne got mixed up with the re-
porters and this is what the Tribune had
to say of his visit:
George Dewey used to shout for the
Wing Presidential candidates. What I
want to know is, How did he become a
Democrats" This problem was pro-
pounded by J. P. Towne, classmate of
the Admiral's at Norwich College in the
early SOS, when he called Oh the Admiral
in the afternoon. Mr.. Towne now re-
sides at Edgerton, Wis and it has been
years since he saw the chum of his col
lege days. He met with a hearty re-
ception, but his problem remains I'M
solved.
1--WE were in Norwich College together
in 1851 and 1882" said Mr.. Towne.
George was lively duck in those days.
He was Is years old and wanted to go to
sea. He talked a sailors life noon and
night. We boarded at the same place,
and George was the life of the whole
crowd. He had talked sailor and sea-
to his father for months, but his father
couldn't see it that way, and George
came to Norwich College as a compro
mise.
"They say now that George is Dem
ocrat. Wonder how he became one?
Why, when we were at Norwich he yelled
like everything for Scott, the Wing can
didate, who was opposing Pierce for the
Presidency. But he's Democrat, is he?

Wedding Bells.

Married April 25th, 1900, at the brides
home in Albion, E. Glenn Williams and
Mary B. Head by Rev S. Ell. Babcock.
The groom was attended by his cousin,
Earle Stone, and the bride by Miss Nettie
Shackleton. The bride and bridesmaid
were gowned in white and the bride
wore orange blossoms. At $50 as the
wedding march, played by Mrs. Mark
Head, sounded through the rooms the
bridal party, proceeded by Rev. S. FL.
Babcock, took their places and the SIM
pie ceremony was performed which made
them husband and wife.
The gifts were many and handsome,
com bining useful and beautiful with
great success. The friends were gener-
Gus in attendance as we'll as in gifts, the
house being filled. The bridal party
looked we'll and happy and doubtless
Mr.. Stone was more than half inclined
to ask the pretty bridesmaid to set
day and grace a wedding of his own.
Mr.. and Mrs. Williams left for Milwau-
kee on the morning train, returning Fri
day night.
The bride and her friends were en-
tertained at an informal tea Tuesday
evening before the wedding. The groom
was similarly entertained by Mrs. Stone.

Marine Guard Withdrawn.

Seeking to testify confidence in the will
ingness and ability of the imperial adj
ministration to redress the wrongs and
prevent the evils we suffered and feared,
the marine guard, which had been sent
to Picking in the autumn Of 1899 for the
protection of the legation, was with
drawn at the earliest practicable mo-
ment, and all pending questions were "e-
mitted, as far as we were concerned, to
the ordinary resorts of Diplomatic inter
course.
The president continues by narrating
the growth of the Boxer movement the
fighting at Taku and the siege of the le-
cations in Picking and continues:
On July IA the besieged had their first
communication with the tsung-li-yamen,
from whom a message came inviting to a
conference, which was declined Core
spondence, however, ensued, and a sort
of armistice was agreed upon which stop
ped the bombardment and lessened the
rife fire for a time. Even then no pro-
lection whatever was afforded or any aid
given save to send to the legations a
small supply of fruit and three sacks of
-four.
Indeed the only communication had
with the Chinese government related to
the occasional delivery or dispatch of a
telegram or to the demands of the tsung-
li-yamen for the withdrawal of the lega-
lions to the coast under escort. Not only
