THE biggest meeting that l ever
attended was in 1894, when the con-
vention was held in Montreal, Can
ada. Do you remember it? 1t was a
corker Men were there from every
quarter of the globe, and we adopted
strong resolutions. One of them pro-
vided that we were never to go into
eat when we knew we had to work.
OF course, we did not want to work
anyhow. We fixed on a sign which
was put on the gate post, and you
bet none of us went in.
"The two conventions that were
held in the abandoned town in Hi
nois were not as large as the one
in Montreal. At that one 5000 men
were present, and it was a great
gathering, but the time we met in
Illinois there were about 600 men at
tended. I believe the coming con-
vention will be big one, because l
have seen a lot of men who come
from different parts of the Union.
mot long ago fellow passed here
going west who told me that he knew
that more than 500 men would be
there this time, and I am sure al
most every hobo in the west will go
if possible.
Il have been told that a trainload
of hoboes will go through Missoula
in few days from the west, and
they want me to join them. 1 am
going to wait a few days and if they
come along when am feeling right
will join them. l saw a big dele
cation go through here the other day
and the police did not get on to them
either.
There were at least 25 on one
train; almost every one was in a box
car. 1t was a great delegation and
l had good time with them at the
station here.
The hoboes nowadays have easier
travelling than at any time in the

past years. The cons and brakes
do just as the companies want them
to, but they don't get on. The men
nowadays spot a car that is empty.
They lay low, don't even show them
selves, and when it is dusk and the
train starts we all get on, close the
doors and ride in safety We don't
make any noise either. The first
man who says anything gets biffed in
the ear and he has to keep still or
get thrown out.
Yes, sir! It's much easier to ride
nowadays than at any time before.
You don't see very many men riding
the beams nowadays. No, sir! They
get inside and ride respectable. But
of course you see some fellows who
don't associate with the herd, and
they want to get on passengers. They
get on top of the coach and stretch
out, and you bet they are dirty when
they get off. Then you will find a
few who will get on the beam of a
freight. They are not onto the ropes
or they would not ride that way.
"One of the important things that
will come up at the convention is
to change the names of some of the
articles of food we eat. Did you
ever hear what they are called =?
Well, here are some of them: Chick
en- is called 'gump,' meat, 'flaggers;
onions, 'scallons; flour, mud; ketch-
up, blood; butter, 'salve; steak
cooked in sand house on a shovel,
panhandle duckey.' When we get
into lot we say let's go kipper and
fioppen.'

said enough and joined man whom
he thought he had seen in some box

CULLOM AND MASON
PLAN POLITICAL COUP
May Force Hogan Into Their Factfon
In Exchange for Senatorial
support.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

RfIl BlIc SfftlAi.
Washington. ID. G., Feb. 25.--Although
Senators Cullom and Mason have scarcely
recovered from the shock they received on
learning that President Roosevelt intends
to appoint Major Daniel Hogan of Mound
City, Ill. Internal Revenue Collector for the
Cairo district. they believe they see a way
to turn seeming defeat into practical VIC
tory. II Hogan Is named te succeed General
Powell they can prevent his confirmation hy
the Senate until Hogan takes the oath of al
legiance or at least promises to remain neu-
tral in the Republican fight for control in
Illinois.
The fact that Hogan, who is Registrar of
the State Grain Office at Chicago, Is one of
Governor Iates'S lieutenants in Egypt is be-
ing used in certain quarters as strong evil
dence that the national administration Is in
sympathy with the Yates HOPKINS
combination in the Illinois Republican fight.
and this theory seems TO gain weight when
it is known that both Cullom and Mason
indorsed ex-senator James Willoughby of
East ST. Louis for the collectorship.
But there is much under the surface of
this new development in the Illinois situa-
ton, and those on the inside believe that
Senators Cullom and Mason will be able
to turn n trick which will bring Major no
gan into their camp II appointed Hogan; 2;
Of course, must resign his state 1o6. ana II
confirmed by grace of Cullom and Mason,
he might h:.ve to relinquish his connection
with the Yates following to still further
extent. -
1t is stated tonight that the President
can prevent Senator Cullom from fighting
because of the power which he exercises
over William Barrett Ridgely. the Comp
troller Of the Currency. While 1t is true
that the President appointed Ridgeiy. he
cannot remove him. The office of the
Comptroller of the Currency was estab-
lished by act of Congress and Mr.. Ridgeiy
is responsible to Congress for the conduct
OF that office He could be removed only by
Impeachment proceedings similar TO those
which would have to be undertaken to re-
move a Judge of the United States Court.
Charges would have to be preferred against
him and he would be entitled to trial be
fore a committee of Congress. Senator Cul-
lom, therefore, has nothing to fear on this
score.

The question of reform in the consular
service debated NJ some length, but no
