Comments of a Spectator al the
 Convention.

MR. EDITOR:
 Poor old h1r. Huntington was not nor is ne the only man who seems to want all of creation. Now, in looking back over the scenes, incidents and laudato- ry remarks made at the last county con- vention, am lost in wonder as to where hoggishness begins and decency ends. The farmers down the valley "did not want nothing" only councilman, pro- bate judge, enc or two supervisors. and district attorney-I forget the others. They had some good material, it is true, and are all honorable gentlemen, but my dear sirs, why did you leave all of your modesty at home when you came to the convention? Now Mr. YOcum is good man and a good farmer, but there was no need to overwhelm him with laudatory remarks and misplaced compliments. Mr. Jacobs is all right, no doubt, but why should the father of Mir. Jacobs wife indulge in such full some fattery in speaking of Mir. Jacobs. Then Mir. Jacobs, thinking to get even with his father-in-law, tells you what a fine old gentleman his father-in-law is, and even wants to get him some office of some kind. This tickling of each other is a nice thing when it does not jar you. The valley folks tell you what a great and promising young man MT. Timmons is, but they failed to state where he was from, when and how long he studied or practiced law, if ever; whether he was ever admitted to the bar-if so, when and where. Now the office of district attorney is responsi- ble one, and to give advice to our su- pervisors and many others requires a man of years mot ears of experience and familiarity with the wants and needs of the county. We or the repub- licans had one rascally imported dis trict attorney a few years ago-y0u know him. He left a good fellow, though. Now like the valley people all right enough, perhaps better than they like me (or will after they read thisl. I hope they will raise good crops and prosper. only want to re- mind them that there are other politi- cal divisions of Yuma county as we'll as the valley: and in the future, when they are making up the slate, give some other poor, incompetent devil a chance, even if he is not from the val ley below Yuma.

Still More Counterfelting,

The Secret Service has unearthed an other band of counterfeiters and secured large quantity of bogus bills, which are so cleverly executed that the aver age person would never suspect them Of being spurious. Things of great value are always selected by counterfeiters for imitation. notably the celebrated Hos tetter's Stomach Bitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indi- gestion, dyspepsia, constipation, ner- vousness and general debility. The Bltters sets things right in the stomach, and when the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat Ot strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and debilitated. Be- ware of counterfeits when buying.

BJRGLARY ON CHIPEL STREET.
Pnrlscr's Optical Goods Store Entered
Inst Night.

The store of G. M. Parker the oculist
at $40 Chapel street, was entered by a
burglar or burglars some time during
the early part of the evening last night
and two pair of opera glasses We're
stolen When the officer on the beat
tried the rear door of the store at s
o'clock everything was all right, but
when on his rounds again about mid
night he discovered that the rear door
was open. An examination showed that
a hole had been cut through the panel
of the door and that by reaching
through the hole thus made the burglar
had been able to unlock the door from
the inside. The cutting In the panel
looked as though it had been done with
a jack knife. Mr.. Parker was notified
that his store had been entered and
went to the store early this morning
The only things he missed were the
opera glasses. He had left no light
burning in the store when he closed up
last evening and consequently the
burglar could work without fear of be-
ing seen by policemen or passersby
from the front of the store.

RoOSEVELTsSEES M,KINLEY.
An Understnnding Reported Regarding u
tho Vicn Presidency.

Washington, May Ex-Governor Roose-
welt was with the president about half
an hour this morning. He arrived at
the White house about Ii o'clock and
was at once sown into the cabinet room.
On leaving the White house the COVER
nor said he really had nothing to COM
municate and courteOusly refused to
be interviewed. Later, however, a close
friend of the governor and also of the
president, stated that the president and
the members Of the administration gen
orally are in full harmony with the gov
ernor's s purpose not to allow his name
to be used In connection with the repub-
lican vice presidential nominati ton. They
were convinced that he could do the
party greater service in the campaign
as a candidate for reelection as COVER
nor of New York than as candidate for
the vice presidency. Governor Roose-
welt Is strongly of this view, and it
can be stated positively that he will
not permit his name to be placed on the
national ticket. Governor Roosevelt af-
ter leaving the White house spent half
an hour in a conference with Secretary
Root at the war department. The gov
ernor afterwards paid his respects to
Secretary Hay and Secretary Long.

AFTER A BOER CONVOY.
Gen. Hutton Attempts TO Sciz, One But
Is Forced Back.

Smaldeel, Tuesday, May S.-Yesterday
General Hutton attempted to seize a
Boer convoy that was leaving the Zand
river He advanced toward the river
with mounted infantry, including the
Canadians. A long line Of wagons was
plainly visible. On becoming aware of
General Hutton's object the Beers stop
ped their retreat and opened with ten
guns. They seemed in great force and
threatened Hutton's flank
Presently, mounted Beers were seen
crossing the dry bed of the river. They
circled to the right and began to en-
filade the West Australians, while many
of the British were hit by Boer shells.
The position became serious. The
Beers sent up reinforcements, placing
the Australians in danger Of being cut
off Thereupon General Hutton ordered
a retirement to Wegelegen, where he
had left his own convoy. A portion of
the forces advanced and engaged the
Beers to cover this retirement, which
was successfully executed. The Beers
continued to shell the retiring troops,
but showed no desire to press the at
tack further Meanwhile the Boer trains
steamed away northward, blowing up
the culverts as they went.

OBJECTED TO CARNEGIE.
Attempt to Elect Him Vice President of
Pence Society Fails.

Boston, May 9.-An attempt to elect
Andrew Carnegie, the Pennsylvania
steel magnate, vice president Of the
| American Peace society was the only
| inharmonious chord struck at the an
| nual meeting of the society here to-day
and after several speakers had express
ed their opinions plainly the matter
was allowed to drop and Mr.. Carnegie
was not elected. Barthold Schlesinger
of Brooklyn proposed Mr. Carneges
name, saying that he did not know how
the latter stood regarding the principles
of the society, but as he was against
the present war; he thought it would
be all right to make him vice presi-
dent. There was objection to such
course until it was known whether or
not Mr.. Carnegie was in sympathy with
the principles of the society. Secretary
Trueblood took this view, saying: I'VE
have been criticised for electing DR..
Lyman Abbott by those who have heard
his pulpit utterances since his election
and it would be unwise to elect any
man until we fully know his views"
The matter was then allowed to drop.
On the question Of adopting the seere-
tarys report, moved by Rev. C. B.
Smith, Hon. l.. III. Pillsbury heartily
supported DR.. Trueblood, but suggested
that the work be supplemented by other
efforts. Edwin B. Mead suggested that
a great arbitration meeting be held in
May anniversary week and that series
of meetings to be held during winter in
Boston, New York and Chicago. The
report was adopted and the meeting ad-

sented. 1t was finally voted to amend
the report and allow the delegates to
cast the full vote Of their respective
states. Permanent organization was
effected by the selection of Colonel w.

effectually punctured, addressed the

PEOPLES Panty CONVENTION.
Bryan's Name Cheertd-A Number OF
Women Delegates Present.

| Sioux Falls, s. D., May 9.-The ma
tional convention of the peoples party
began business in the tent here this
afternoon. There have been larger
crowds in attendance upon national
conventions, and possibly there have
been occasions on which more enthusi-
asm has been manifested, but there
have been few similar events which
have been marked by more evident sin
cerity of purpose or more pronounced
decorum or behavior.
The interior Of the tent was made re-
splendent by lavish diplay of national
colors, and the uprights of the structure
bore excellent black and white portraits
of Washington, Jefferson. Lincoln and
Bryan. The accommodations for dele
gates, for distinguished guests, for the
press and for ordinary visitors proved
exceptionally good.
There were probably 500 delegates in
their seats and surrounding them there
was fringe of alternates and visitors
numbering 600 to 800. United States
Senators Butler. Allen and Teitfeld re-
ceived liberal greeting, while Senator
Pettigrew was overwhelmed by the cor
diality or the welcome accorded him.
There was also generous applause when
the name of Mr.. Bryan was mentioned
by the speakers Of the day. Many sem
timents We're cheered to the echo. and
this was notably the case with Governor
Lees reference to the Beers and the
Philippines
Probably nine-tenths of the delegates
and far larger per cent. of the visitors
were from the northern Mississippi river
states. Few of the picturesque charac-
ters of the st. Louis convention of 1896
We're present. BY no means the least
noticeable characteristic of the gather
ing was the presence of a number of
women. Colorado led the list in the
number of female delegates, three being
present from that state. Kansas, Ida
no and the District of Columbia also
sent women delegates.
