A Disappearing Remnant.

The reports Of political conditions
rendered by the various members Of the
Republican state central committee who
came to attend the meeting at Seattle
are as important as they are encourage
ing. For they all note the rapid dis
appearance Of fusion sentiment In their
several counties. and the complete de-
moralization OF the fusion forces. 1t Is
not so much that the enemy is handi-
capped. or discouraged. or has lost con-
fidence in its ability to win. It is rather
the total cessation OF interest in the
whole fusion cause and movement 1t
can be expressed only by a slang
phrase: literally and metaphorically. fu-
sion ''makes the people tired"
Evidences of this have not been want
ing. Both the Populist and the so-called
silver Republican parties in this state
have gone visibly TO pieces. Nobody
takes any interest in them. They can
not hold primaries or conventions. be-
cause there IL nobody to go. 1t has
been necessary, in order to have any
thing that could even be called a con-
vention, to admit anybody who chose to
come as a delegate. And then 1t was
lucky IL half a score or half a dozen
men were scattered over the otherwise
empty benches.

overwhelming force. Neither was en-
ployed. The forts at Taku were bonn
barded before the attacking forces were
sufficiently strong to follow IT up with
an advance. Even IL an army Of ade-
quate strength had been present. it is
not certain that 1t would have felt free
to undertake the work of rescue. Japan
could probably have sent an army large
enough to deal with the crisis. but she
could not be allowed to do so for fear
Of offending Russia. Moreover, she
would not care to undertake the task
OF quelling rebellion or waging war
without some guarantee Of being reim-
bursed, and upon this point the other
powers were unable to come to an
forces at hand. but 1t is doubtful II she
could get permission to use them. Those
who are apparently in alliance with her
on a mission Of rescue question her mo-
tives, and fear that a large Russian
force once landed on Chinese soil win
remain permanently. As no power could.
without criticism, land a force much
superior to that of any other. 1t has
resulted In a handful Of men being de-
tailed to settle the trouble and finding
itself hardly able TO protect itself. The
joint action of the powers has thus far
been Intellectual, and IL remains to be
seen whether anything Of Importance
can be accomplished before an inter
national army can be assembled large
enough to overawe the hordes who have
risen to drive the foreigners into the

Many additional representative Re-
publicans express through the Post-In-
telligencer this morning their sense OF
the vital Importance of sending a unit
convention at Tacoma. No one Is par
ticularly interested in the exact manner
Of selecting the delegates. but II II rec
ognized that they must act as a unit.
Unless they do, the representation from
King county, split into discordant and
warning factions as 1t has been for the
last six years. will certainly become the
sport Of the convention and the helpless
tool OF any combination Of outside In
terests.
1t Is not In the least remarkable that
those who take the opposite view are
not willing to discuss the matter or to
give their reasons. There are no rea-
sons that will bear the light OF day.
The Post-Intelligencer has strong con-
victions on the subject. because 1t be-
lieves that this will determine whether
King county Is restored to a right and
reasonable place in the counsels OF the
state or remains clown and errand boy
for interests alien and hostile to It. But
IL would be glad to know II there are
any objections to the plan OF a united
delegation that will stand publication.
So far II has heard of none.

sition to harmony In King county rises

den scheme of personal and selfish in
terest that counts King county merely
as something to be traded away for the
beneht of others. we are willing to be
corrected. What other ground Is there
for objection to party unity? II those
who are silent have not in mind the
idea that a solid delegation would be
a good thing II the convention was In
the hands of their friends and an In
tolerable arrangement IL their enemies
should control II. then what is the oc-
casion Of their reticence? These are thu
conclusions which the Republicans Of
King county are forming; and until
some argument is advanced TO show
that they are unjust. the great body
OF our voters must be governed by
them.
II Is the old story. United We stand.
No matter what candidate may secure
a majority In the convention. let him
have the solid support Of the county
for the countys sake. IL Is in behalf
Of King county interests that our Re-
publicans have organized. and their IN
splration and their enthusiasm are for

An Initiative Rabbi.

Dogs and cats have been known to be-
come fast friends, but for u cat and a
rabbit to become inseparable companions
is out Of the ordinary. r. FL. Jones of
No. 100 Archer street has rabbit and a
cat which are boon Companions. The rab-
bit belonged to neShbor of Jones. One
day it strayed into the Jones yard and
got acquainted with the cat. The admir-
alton was mutual. They became the best
of friends, and from the minute the rab-
bit met the cat it has not been to its own
home. For more than Il year the two
have been together, eating from the same
dish and sleeping together in a box in
the rear of the yard The cat will not
play with other cats, but makes a COM
Danicn only of the rabbit. They romp
about the yard together. and now and
then the, cat will climb tree. When it
docs''the rabbit will run around the tree
and attempt to join the cat Until the
cat comes back to the ground the rabbit
is nervous. The dogs of the neighborhood
have learned to keep out of the Jones
yard. For one to come into the yard and
approach the rabbit is canine suicide
The cat bristes up at once and makes it
so interesting for the intruder that he is
always glad to scale the fence and get in

=, Underwear as IA Protector.

The old idea that wool is the only
proper protection for the skin is ex-
ploded. In my opinion the skin, to per-
form it's functions normally needs but
little such protection. says Melville
Black, NJ. ID. In fact, the less the bet
ter. BY petting the skin and overpro-
tecting it with wooden underwear we
make it tender and representative, thus
rendering it unable to withstand sud-
den atmospheric changes without par
alysis of some portion of it's vasomoter
control. Hence the frequent 'catch-
ing cold," the bette noir of our exist
ence.
To me it seemed incredible that I
could cast aside my hannels and not
feel the chill of winters blast. My pat
tents sap to me. II will catch my death
of cold'' When I show them thatI am
wearing linen mesh, and have not had
a cold for over a year. and am perfect
ly warm and comfortable, something
that I could net say when was wear
ing heavy flannels, they are amazed.
Some are not to be conNinced-no
amount of reasoning will convince them
that the conditions of their skins is
responsible for their cold and cathar-
rhal noses and Threats.
