Depot Burned.

The Rutland Railroad depot at Sun
derland was burned Monday afternoon.
The Sunderland post office was locat-
ed in the depot but it is not known
how much the loss is. Probably the
total loss to the government would
not exceed 5000. It is impossible to
tell what the loss of the Rutland road
will be. This is the second depot
burned within two months on the
Rutland road.

THEY CRUSH The POWERS

This is written in mid October. The long.
oppressive summer is quite gone. Fading
leaf, whitening tree and the rustling corn in
the fields are signs of the season. Fog,
frost, rain, snow,-they are coming. You
remember last winter; of 1900 and 1901.
The weather was cruel. All! the thous-
and5 it killed, and the hundreds of thous-
ands 1T manned and crippled. Oh, the
rough grasp it laid on men at work, women
at home, and children in cribs and cradles.
Coughs that began before Thanksgiving
Day are racking and tearing them still; yes,

were cured by using Benson's Porous Plas-

OF these Plasters is wonderful. They con-

PROSPECTS IN NEVADA
SENATOR STEWART PREDICTS
REPUBLICAN SWEEP.
Increased Gold Output Eliminates the
Silver Question-Looks for the
Defeat of Newlands.

Senator Stewart has just returned to the
city after a trip through Nevada. He be-
lieves that his state will go republican by
large majority next fall.
Nevada will be strongly republican this
fall he said to a Star reporter today. THE
state has always been republican except on
the silver question. The elimination of that
cue uCstiOn by the increased output of gold
has restored Nevada to the republican
ranks. Besides, there has been a great re-
vival in mining, railroad building and other
industries. The state was never so prosper
Gus as now. The new voters who will have
the balance of power are generally republi-
cans.
What seems conclusive evidence of re-
publican victory and the defeat of the as
pirations of Newlands for election to the
Senate is the announcement of Judge
Thomas P. Hawley as candidate for the
United States Senate in opposition to Mr.
Newlands. Judge Hawley is the peer of the
leading senators of the United States. He
practiced law in Nevada for many years,
three times elected to the supreme
bench of that state, and has been twelve
years the United States district bench,
1t is not overstating the case for Judge
Hawley to say that his record as jurist
is unsurpassed in the Pacific coast states.
He is learned, able, honest and eminently
practical in his views. He is the idol of the
people of Nevada. They regard him as one
of them. He did not go there for the sake
of office, but became a resident of the
state of Nevada at n early day, as pio-
neer settler and cast his lot with the peo-
pie.
Not only will Nevada have a republican
senator, but she will have good republican
in the lower house of Congress"

sentative men Of New England and to learn
whether there was any significance in the
large gatherings that met Mr.. Bryan dur
ing his recent tour Of New England.
While Mr.. Bryan had large audiences
wherever he went said Mr.. Shallenberger,
these gatherings were made up very
largely of republicans and had no sig
nificance whatever so far as indicating the
way IN which the people would vote. Mr..
bryan has very attractive personality
he is gifted orator and people admire HIM
for his consistency and the purity of his
private life. They are quite ready to 80 to
hear him speak, but when it comes 10 the
casting of their ballots the situation is
quite different They vote because of their
belief in the power of one party or the
other to advance the prosperity of the
country. They recognize Mr. Bryan's
prophesies in regard to the effect of the
gold standard false and unfulfilled
They have gained even more confidence
than ever in the soundness of the principles
of the republican party and believe thai
the business of the country will be best
advanced by adhering to them The fact
that they are ready to attend a BRYAN
meeting and to hear him speak does not
mean that they sympathize with his prin-
ciples or that they are even thinking of
voting the democratic ticket next fall

Claims of the West End.
The commissionership vacancy has caused
the people of the section of the city west of
Rock creek to put on their thinking caps,
and as result there is a great deal of
talk going the rounds Of that section that
it Is about time Georgetown had represen-
tative on the board. Said a well-known res
ident of that place this morning to a Star
reporter. when the question came up:
Since the present form of government
was inaugurated, nearly thirty years ago,
only two of the long list of Commissioners
nave peeli IeSlueUlS VI IeOTSelOWn. 1neE
were Josiah Dent and Samuel Wheatley
The people of Georgetown claim that the
improvements in this section, and this is
not meant to cast any reflections on the
former boards, of the city are considerably
inadequate, and that the specific appropra-
tions for Georgetown are frequently held
off until the end of the fiscal year before
the work is completed or else the money
deferred to some other section and the work
not done or only partly done.
Now, there are many citizens Of this sec
ton who are eminently equipped to fill the
cavancy caused by the death of Mr.. Ross.
They hold the confidence of the masses of
this part of the city and are men who have
grown up with the town and are capable in
every way of filling the position. Among
them might mention ]. Holdsworth Cor

WILL DEFER ACTION.
Bar to Locating Army Hospital in Sol
diers' Home Grounds

Upon further consideration of the subject.
the officials of the War Department have
concluded to defer definite action in the
matter Of selecting a site for the proposed
General Army Hospital to be established
In this city until certain desired additional
legislation can be obtained from Congress
1t is desired to locate the new hospital on
the grounds of the Soldiers Home, but
that cannot be done without specific au-
thority from Congress.
If the legislative body does not favor
such use of the grounds. specific authority
will be required to select a site elsewhere
and to purchase the property. There is
now available for the new hospital s140, ,OO0
but the sum is not regarded as sufficient
to purchase a site and construct a suitable
building.
