AZubah Ferry and MRS. CarOHn0 Cl0Ve-
land of Windsor Locks, Mrs. Hannah
Kingsbury of Coventry, and Mrs. Sophia
Tyler Of Staffordville. On May /, 1874,
she was married to James NJ Chaffee Of
Staffordville, who survives her In his 81st
year. She was the mother of six chill
dren, four OF whom grew up and are liv-
ing: George L. Chaffee of Bridgeport,
Amelia, wife of w. j. Butterfield, Of
Stonington, E. Jennie Chaffee Of Stafford
Vile, and Ida, wife of l. M. Agald OF
Rockville. She also leaves ten grand
children and one great-grand-child She
was always deeply interested in the social
life of her village, a kind neighbor and a
true friend, but her deepest interest was
felt and her light shone brightest In her
own home circle, where she was devoted
wife and mother. When about 10 years
of age she united with the Baptist church
in her native town, and was member OF
the Baptist church in Stafford at her
death. She bore long and wearisome
sickness with patience and fortitude.
The funeral was at the family residence
in Staffordville Thursday afternoon. Rev.
Mr.. Purdy, pastor of thd M. E. church of
Staffordville, conducted the service, her
pastor being away from town. The
hymns sung at the service were OF her
own selection, and, as she had wished,
the bearers were her son, her son's-in-
law and her eldest grandson. The burial
was in the Staffordville cemetery.

According to Madame RumOr,
Senator Foster is already at Wash
linton city endeayoring to convince
the president that it is his duty to
appoint such men to the variosu fed
eral positions as he, Senator Foster,
may desire to recommend, regardless
Of the will of the Republican party
in this state. Evidently Ben Gros-
cup has given Mr.. Foster orders and
sent him on to Washington to carry
out his instructions. The Pie-maker
is not inclined to believe that Pres
ident Mckinley is going to create
an upheaval in his own administra-
ton because Senator Foster has
made a new political deal. If Mr..
Ide was not worthy Of the position
he now holds, to which he was ap-
pointed by President Mckinley, he
was not worthy Of it at any time.
Mr.. Ide has been endorsed by every
leading politician in this state
and likewise endorsed by the two
members of the lower house of con-
gress and is only opposed by Ben
Grascup and Senator Foster. II
President Mckinley wishes to create
CONSERVATION in the Republican
party, he will listen to these two
men, but if he wishes to let peace
and harmony prevail in the Repub-
lican party he will re-appoint Mr.
Ide, who has been almost unani-
mously endorsed by every leading
Republican in the state. If Senator
Foster is able to turn out all the Re
publicans that now hold office tt

The candidacy Of Harold Preston
for the United States senate, which
was sprung by the Oregonian, and
which has been commented on by
a great many of the state papers, is
not considered of much Importance
by the leading papers Of this state.
Governor Mcbride, who is said to be
in charge of the management Of the
Preston senatorial candidacy, was
in the city the most of this week
and had his "charge" in tow. He
was evidently coaching him as to the
best way to begin his campaign and
laying wires whereby he could make
it possible to rope in outside com
binations, providing Mr.. Preston
could make a showing to the effect
that King county was unit for
him. This was an impossibility las
King county is no more for him
than she is for Ankeny or anyone
else who wants to go to the United
States senate, and this discouraged
Mr. Mcbride quite a bit. The an
nouncement which was clandestine-
ly made in the Oregonian did not
assume the spirit Of enthusiasm that
the promoter thought it would do,
and if the Pie-maker is not mistak-
en-, it fell as fiat as a founder. It
is therefore prophesied that that
senatorial boomlet will die a-bornin'

Some time ago the Pie-maker
made the bold announcement that a
political difference had arisen be-
tween ex-senator Wilson and his
former political manager, Charley
Hopkins. This he has subsequently
learned to be a mistake, pure and
simple, as Mr.. Hopkins and Mr.. Viii
son are as good frienrsto day as they
ever were. Mr. wilson is taking no
part in the Ide-Hopkins controver-
sy and expresses no preference in
the candidacy of the two men. Not
only is he taking no interest as to
which Of these two men get this par
ticular place, but over his own sig
nature he claims that he is taking no
part as to who gets any of the places
that are to be parcelled out in this
state. His communication which
simultaneously appeared IN the
morning papers Of this state one day
last week, was unique, but to the
point, so far as any part That he was
playing as to whom Senator Foster
or President Mckinley would APP
point to the federal positions. He
stated that he had not recommend
ed a single man for position, ex-
cept one, and he only recommended
that man at the request of Senator
Foster, which. was for some minor
position at a cross road post office.

From the Southwest comes the
report that Hon. A. J. Falknor of
Olympia has SHE'D his castor into the
congressional jackpot of this state,
and will endeavor to do the Hon.
Francis W. Cushman, who has twice
been elected to represent this state
in the lower house of congress, out
of the nomination next year. Mr..
Falknor has made quite public rep
Utation as a member of the legisla-
ture of this state, having been a
member Of both the fifth and sixth
legislatures. At the last legislature
he made quite fight for the speak
ership Of the house and only lost on a
combination deal. Had Mr.. Falknor
have forced his fight it would have
meant the loss Of the state capitol
from his city, and he feared that
public sentiment would turn against
him if he would lose for Olympia the
state capital. In view Of that fact
he renowned all claims to the speak
ership and suffered King county's
candidate to win out almost without
opposition. During both sessions of
the legislature A. J. Falknor's voice
was alweys heard on all public ques-
tions, and he proved himself to be a
fearless public speaker, and cham
pioned right from his way Of
thinking at least, without fear or
favor from the other fellow. Should
Mr.. FalknOr therefore become an ac-
tive candidate for congressional
honors and should he be able to
bring the solid southwest to the next
state convention, he would give Mr..
Cushman a tussle such as he never
had before since he first aspired to
the honOred position which he has
so ably filled. The state of Wash
ington will have three members to
elect to the next lower house of con-
gress, and should Mr.. Falknor be
able to land one Of them, it is most
likely that the second would go to
the northwest and the third to East
ern Washington, and Hon. W. L.
Jones be re-nominated. Should Mr..
Falknor lose it and Mr. Cushman
be re-nominated, the division will
probably be the same, though King
county might slip in if she will only
be good.

There was an important political
gathering in this city one day this
week, which, owing to the persons
participating in it, is deserving of
more than passing notice, and while
those participating in it were few in
number, its purport was of both
state and national importance. In
the private office Of Senator Harold
Preston sat Lieutenant Governor
Henry Mcbride and Senator Moul-
trie of Whatcom county, and the po-
litlcal issues of this state were dis
cussed at length by this new politi-
cal triumvirate. 1t was then and
there decided, so goes the story, that
Harold Preston is to be candidate
for the United States senate and Mr..
Mcbride candidate for the lower
house of congress, while Senator
Moultrie is to hit for the guberna-
tOrial chair in 1904, all of which is
a most beautiful combination, if it
will only work. In order for Sena-
tor Preston to reach the United
States senate, he will have to over
come the opposition Of some of the
biggest political guns in this state,
and in order for Mr.. Mcbride to get
the nomination for congress he will
have to form one fthe strongest po-
litical combinations ever made in
the state Of Washington, and in or
der for Senator Moultrie to secure
the nomination for governor in 1904
the former aspirants will have tc
make their nominations and cleo
tions sure and certain, which thing,
are very doubtful at this writing.
