At the head of the staIWarts is Senator

ing second fiddle The movement is
financed by Henry c. Payne and Charles
F. Pfster, of Milwaukee Their object
is to capture the party, defeat La Fol-

United States senate. To accomplish this
meeting is being held in Milwaukee at

eral officeholders throughout the state.
This is the first step in the death march
of the party. Should the stalwarts ac-
complish the defeat of La Toilette so
strong is his hold on popular sympathy
that the rank and file of the party will
desert and create new organization.
The rule OF the ring is doomed, but in
going down it is likely to take the party
with it.
Should the half breeds, as they are
called, be able to maintain themselves in
the next primaries, the StalWartS Will III
turn never support their ticket.
The situation is identical with that in
New York after the defeat of Conkling
and Platt. The machine succeeded In
forcing Folger on the Republican state
convention with the result that the half
breeds remained at home on election day,
and Grover Cleveland was elected gov
ernor of New York by majority of 49,
co., AS a direct result of this quarrel
between the stalwarts and half-breeds of
the Empire State, the Democratic party
elected president. The Wisconsin quar-
rel may not have a national influence,
but it will take Wisconsin out of the
column of sure Republican states. 1t
will close the political career of John

NJ. LIE COL. BRYAN.
Chicago Inter Ocean.

Chicago Inter Ocean.
The Paris correspondent of a French
provincial newspaper has gathered in
some way, perhaps by reading the Lon
don daihes, that a presidential cam
paign is again on in the United States,
and with a view to keeping abreast
of the times he claims to have recently
interviewed friends of the candidates,
who have given him information at first
hand
Most of the information, he assures
his readers, came from person now So
journing in Paris, who is very close to
NJ. lie Col. Bryan and NJ. lie Col. Roose-
welt just where M. lie Col. Thomas
Ochiltree happened to be when the cor
respondence was prepared we do not
know but the reader is at liberty to
draw his own differences.
We learn from a translation of this
correspondence that NJ. lie Col Bryan
first came into fame as a member of
strange, half-sayage band of cowboys
who roamed over the Tar West fighting
the Indians and wild beasts. Initiating,
perhaps, the custom of the Indian chiefs,
each of the cowboys wore a nickname
based on some of his exploits as hunter
or fighter. Thus NJ. lie Col. Bryans title
among his rough but brave and sturdy
comrades was Silver Bill the Dead Shot.
After the treaty of peace was signed
with the Indians at Chicago, in 1896,
Col. Bryan went out of the cattle busI-
ness and became one of the bonanza
farmers of the West. He can now sit on
his back stoop, as the rear veranda is
called in America, and look over his
fields of corn stretching farther than the
eye can reach in every direction.
AS result of his early training on the
plains, where he spent months at a time
without an opportunity of talking to.
another human being, the candidate for
president Is extremely taciturn and can
hardly be persuaded to express his opin-
ion on the issues of the campaign He IS
the author of a book of adventure called
THE First Battle, in which some OF
his encounters with the Indians of the
Tammany and other tribes are described
at length.

We had gone to the nearest place to
get lunch. We had selected our table
Suddenly my friend Werner jumped up
and made for his hat
Come OUT he called to me- 1--WE can't
possibly lunch here"
20 this is good enough" I objected
AS matter of fact, it was rather bad;
but I dislike moving
NO; you must come on. I have sworn
an oath and must keep it,
On his way out he clutched the head
waiter, pointed to something on the wall
and said words that 1 could not hear;
put could see that they were spoken
with anger, sarcasm and contempt.
The head waiter made gestures indica-
tive of resignation under misfortune and
oil a general disclaimer OF any respon-
sibility for anything.
The mystery deepened, apd as soon as
we had seated ourselves in another res
taurant demanded an explanation.
Well" said Werner, you saw me point
at that notice on the WALTZ"
Yes, there was notice: 'Putridina,
good, clean dinner claret. Made in Ger
many. Doctors order it, 1 think 1 re-
member correctly"
Undoubtedly; but it was not at that
notice that I pointed 1t was the one
above it, which says: No pipes permitted
IN this saloon / am a sworn member
OF society that does not permit that
notice"
What's the good of bothering? If you
want to smoke, pipe, you can smoke it
within his rights"
That's all wrong said Werner, warm
ing to his subject. IF restaurant pro-
pretor says that no smoking is permit
ted, then he is within his rights. But
II Is not his business to settle what form
or smoking hiss patrons are to adopt;
that Is impertinence And when a bull
necked, potato backed Belgian has saved
enough out, of his sneakings to start a
seventh ratencity garbage shop and can
it a restaurant, I'm not letting him be
impertinent to me- Here's mis- blessed
saloon, as he calls it. You may smoke
there while other people are eating, but
1t must not be "a pipe. Why, the con-
founded rissolemaker will be telling me
how to get my hair cut next
An unintentional impertinence," I

as any excuse. If our waiter poured a
plate of soup down my back unntention-
ally, L shouldn't smile and entreat him
not to worry about it, On the contrary.
would make 1t my business to see that
he worried very considerably. No, if any
ambitious meringue merchant wants to
impart an air of refined luxury to the
greasy rat warren he calls his saloon,
he is welcome to do it by any legitimate
means For instance, he might wash his
hands or he might wash his walters; he
might teach. those of his compatriots who
patronize his shop to eat in some less
repulsive and disgusting manner. That
would be all to the good. But I will not
have any half-bred carrot stamper come
bullying up to me in his second hand

MR.. WOODS IS UNPOPULAR.
Contest Against His Grab-An Claim
Next to LavtOn.

FORT SILL, o. T., Aug. Soonest
papers were filed today by Attorney John
l. Calvert, of Guthrie, against the entry
made by James r. Woods, winner of the
first number in the Lawton district land
lottery. According to the government
plan, two claims were made to adjoin the
southern part Of the Lawton townsite.
This was considered the most valuable
land in the whole country thrown open
to settlement and Woods claimed 16)
acres running the entire length of the
townsite. This shut out Matte Beals,
the Wichita telephone girl who drew No
in the lottery, and who was thus COM
PEELED to file on a claim Of much less
value. Five hundred Lawton business
men have signed the contest papers,
which recite that Woods violated both
the spirit and letter of the homestead
act.
A movement has been started here
among the nomeseekers, who failed to
win at the recent land drawing TO have
the government open up the three re-
serves set aside in the Lawton district
These embrace about ABA quarter sec
lions and were presumably set aside TO
help out cattle men who were grazing
their stock on the Kiowa-COmauche
lands. A petition will be sent TO the
interior department at once.
