TO HONEST DEMOCRATS
OWEN M'AREE ADVISES THEM TO
BEGIN At BOTTOM OF TICKET.
He withdraws as Candidate for Coun-
Gilman at Unconstitutional
from w. +. Moore.

My advice to all honest Democrats who
attend the primaries on Monday is TO COM
mence at the bottom Of the list Of candi-
dates for councilmen at large and mark a
cross opposite to the names found there,
instead of at the top. In this way we
may hope to partially free ourselves from
the Taggart machine. which is being man
aged at present by Joe Tanning"
The above statement was made last night
TO a Journal representative by Owen Nc
Aree, who yesterday withdrew his name
from the list of candidates for the Demo-
cratic nominat ton for councilman at large.
Mr.. McAree says that he had his name
withdrawn from the ticket because he
honestly believed that Chairman Tanning
had defrauded him by putting his name
in the ninth place on the ticket when it
should have been in the first place. He
says that the day Chairman Tanning re-
turned from Milwaukee his petition was
placed in his hands, and that Tanning
himself wrote it at his request.
There could have been no other petit
ton filed at that time said Mr.. McAree,
because it would have been unlawful to
ave presented one to him before / saw
him that day"
IL nC<AItc says lHdt dHHinb Cdllcu nlth
up yesterday afternoon and wanted to ex-
plain, but that he told him he wanted
nothing more to dc with him. Mr.. McAree
said that jeremiah Costello and Daniel
Campbell had informed him that they in
tended 70 pursue the same course as him.
self.
Both Mr.. Mcguire and Mr.. Moore are
taking advantage of every minute of time
they have left in which TO complete their
campaigns. Maguire seems to be depending
entirely on the machine TO help him out,
and up to the present time has made a
still hunt for votes. Moore is holding open
meetings in every ward and has secured
the services of a large number of stumpers
TO make speeches in his interests. A big
Moore meeting was held in the Fourteenth
ward last night. and the enthusiasm which
prevailed indicates that Moore has a large
following in that ward.
In speaking of the situation last night
Mr.. Moore said he did not see how IL was
possible for Mcguire TO beat him.. THE
city committee. which so kindly took charge
OF Mr.. Maguire's canvass is beginning to
have some doubts of its ability TO defeat
me-" said Mr.. Moore. 'They have accused
me of everything in the calendar. but so
far have done ire little harm. They tried

beer agent, but / don't think their little
scheme worked quite to their liking" Mr..
Moore said that he had no hope of carry
ing either the Sixth or the Tenth ward.
as Charles Polster is doing everything pos
sible to defeat him in the former and
James L.. Reach is working just as hard
against him In the latter.

The COUSINS WERE HERE
CICERO YOUNG PEOPLE SAID THEY
DIDN'T INTEND TO MARRY.
The Girl Claimed She Had Been
Cruelty Treated-Went to
North Carolina.

In yesterdays papers there was a dis
patch from Noblesville that stated that
frankie Revis, daughter of u. W.. Revis. a
farmer living near Cicero, had eloped with
Robert Revis, her first cousin. The girls
father is an uncle to young Revis. who
went TO work or the formers farm last
fall. Revis and the girl saw much of each
ether, the dispatch stated, but no suspi-
cion was aroused Until Revis asked If
there were any State in the Union where
first cousins were allowed to marry. The
couple left Cicero last Sunday.
Sunday night a message from the girls
father was received at the Union Station,
requesting the rclice to hold the couple.
A description was given. but TO charge was
made against them. The message stated
that they would purchase tickets for North
Carolina. where first cousins are permitted
to marry. The police declined to act on
such a message, and the father was so
informed. AT S:S5 Monday morning a second
message was received. This was from the
marshal of Cicero, but no charge was
made against the couple. The police were
again notified, but the young peoples train
left at 3:45, and they got away in safety.
The two were approached by the station
officials after the first message arrived.
Both had the appearance of not being. &C
customed TO city ways, and did not nes-
lt3te, after a few evasive answers to ques-
tons, to tell all about themselves. They
denied that they were attempting to elope,
but said that they were going to their
people in North Carolina. where Revis said
his father and their grandparents live:
They also said they had no intention of
marrying, because they were first cousins.
reason she was leaving home. She said
her parents treated her cruelty, and as she
spoke she rolled up her sleeve and showed
several heavy marks and scratches which
she said had been inflicted by her mother
that morning. Revis said that when she
knew that he was going TO North Carolina
she asked If she might ccompan him, and
he consented. He said that. so far as ar
elopement was concerned, that no one
could stop them, as they were both of age.
The girl said she would not return home
until her parents came to her and promised
to treat her more kindly.

CoIored People on Sidewalks.

In a letter to the Board of Works H. NJ.
Bronson, assistant general passenger agent
OF the Big Four, suggests that the board
order the proposed new cement sidewalks
on Capitol avenue TO be constructed next
the curb, at least from New York TO Wal
nut street. His reason for this request is
that the sidewalks for the four squares
mentioned are used by colored people who
live in the alleys in the rear of the resi-
dences fronting on Capitol avenue. He
says their conversation is often vulgar and
offensive.

WU WANTS TO DEBATE.
A Challenge to Editors Who
 Favor Exclusion
The Chinese Minister Says That His Government Has Not Ex- pressed Itself, But Wants Only Equality.

Washington, Nov. 21.-Wu Ting Fang the Chinese minister, called upon Presi- dent Roosevelt today. In the course of an interview which took place in the cabinet room, the re-enactment of the exclusion law was discussed. When the minister emerged from the white house he declined to tell the newspaper men whether his government was protesting against the re-enactment of the eXclI sion law.
 All we want" he said, ''is justice and fairness" As he was saying this the minister was greeted by Senator Foster of Washington. who himself is very much interested in exclusion.
 Senator" said the minister, you are a fair man. Remember that justice and right have neither color nor race. We do not ask favors. we only ask for equality
 In the course of his conversation Wu suggested that he would be willing to meet any three of the managing editors who favored exclusion and debate the question before any impartial tribunal.

A FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE
The Accidental Capture of Hayes
 Alexander.

The authorities believed for half a day yesterday that the forgers who flooded the town with spurious checks on the Mesa City bank last week, had been captured. The descriptions of the 1orgers fitted the appearance of three brothers, Hayes. Logan and Clinton Alexander, who have been breaking horses on the Starkweather ranch for three or four days. Warrants for their arrests were sworn out in Justice Bur nett's court and an hour later they were in jail.
 There were several circumstances that pointed to their guilt. One was that specimens of their handwriting was exactly similar to the penman- ship on the forged checks. They said that they had come into the country from Lime Creek on November 20, and it was the following day that the spurious paper was foated.
 But none of the men who had done business with the forgers were able to identify them, but on the contrary some of the victims were positive that they were not the forgers. O. R. Lech- Ter. of the Capital harness shop, did not think that any two of them were the men who had induced him to take a S46 check. Mir. Warner who is with Ezra w. Thayer. rather believed that sented a check there, but MT. Thayer was quite sure that he was not. l.. Rubenstein, of the Boston Store was
