What promises to be one of the most
exciting voting contests ever held IN

Of the Commercial club, Nov. Ii, when

In years past the presidency of the

Mr.. Paul's friends are sure of winning
the day. they claim that pledges are not
votes, and their man is bound to have IL

American congress today appointed it's
various committees.
e Is understood that the United States
delegation viii appoint w. j. Buchanan,
former minister TO the Argentine Re-
public, as its representative on the COM
mittee on arbitration, owing to the fact
that he speaks Spanish and is familiar
with South American questions.
The committee on international equity
and court of claims is equal in impor-
lance to that on arbiT sation. 1t is I'M
derStood that John Barrett, former min
lister to Siam, will be member of the
committee on International equity and
court of claims. The discussion of press
some surprises. Isaac A. Beamara, vice
president, and delegate of Peru, made a
splendid speech in favor of the amplest
privileges to the press, while the Chilean
delegates manifested other opinions.
The recommendation to include the
louisiana Purchase exposition among the
subjects of general welfare was intro
duced by ex-senator W G.. Davis, OF
West Virginia, who dwelt on the choice
of ST. Louis John Barrett alluded to
President McKinley's proclamation be-
speaking the attention and support Of
the whole world for the fair. Mr. Bar

will towards the United States.
An extra session has been called for
tomorrow morning to finally dispose of

The man who has been most active in

member OF the Garfield Republican club

Another feature of interest regarding
the proposed candidacy of Judge Collins
is the fact that his most active friends
and workers are to be found at Duluth,
which is even more pronounced in it's
opposition to the state administration
than Hennepin.
1t is stated that the Duluth men are
prepared to go ahead with a combination
which includes Collins for governor and
Haldin for auditor, in which event there
would be general tearing up all along
the line, aud if the plan snoelI prove
successful, the gang slate would be
smashed, and faces which have been fix

would disappear.
At the present time Judge Collins is a
resident of Minneapolis, though there aye

sHEyLIN IS scEPT1cAL.
He Thinks the seeIeye 'DiscIosuresv
:. Cannot Be Proven.


Thomas Shevlin does not believe that
necessary proof the statement made by
him yesterday to the effect that he can
show that frauds have been committed
by Minnesota and other lumbermen
against the United States government.
Seeleye is serving an eight months SEN
tence i'll the county Jail, having been con-
Victed Of setting forest fires on the Chip
pewa reservation in Minnesota.
L believe it is all talk declared Mr..
Shevlin, land that it will end in nothing
l do not think there is lumberman in
the Northwest who has been guilty of
frauds against the government. About
the only way. the government could be
cheated would be for the lumbermen to
hire some one to set fire to the forests
in order to buy the burned timber from
the indians or Squaw men, And it would
be folly to suppose men of any sense
would hire other men to commit arson.
II am in favor of repeating the law
which permits the cutting of dead and
down timber on the reservations L believe
this law is the source of many frauds,
committed by the squaw men-white men
who have married into the Indian tribes
in order to get the rights of the In-
dians-and the Indians. They are per-
mitted to cut and sell dead and down
timber. The consequence is that pre-
MUM is placed on forest fires, for the
fires make dead standing timber.
But / do not believe the lumbermen
have had any connection with these
transactions. When the timber is cut
and offered for sale. of course, the lum-
bermen buy it, as business men in other
branches buy goods offered for sale on
the market
