trouble. is making strenuous efforts to
have new men brought into the camps
10 continue the work of logging.
John b. Thompson, member of tue

New York in 1904.

AS the breach between Senator PIatt
and Governor Odell widens. democratic
chances III New York brighten. The
trouble etWee the two is of long
standing and has been s~mouldering
ever since Roosevelt became president.
and now that it has broken out. it is
very bitter. and there appears little
prospect Of eac between the warning
factions from now until the close of
the 1904 campaign. AS a natural result
the chances of the republican carry
ing the state in the next election are
very much leSSened.
Another damaging feature, from a
republican point of view, is the fact
that Mr.. Roosevelt. who is almost sure
to be his party's nominee, is involved
II the fight. AS governor of New York
he antagonized the PIatt machine.
Odell in the same Office has continued
the same policy. This puts the presi-
dent on Odells side and against Plat.
Though the senator has tried to con-
ceal the fact, some of his lieutenantS
are no SO discreet and in course of a
recent interview in the New York
World we find Lou Payn, a friend and
creature of Senator Plat. saying:
NO matter who runs for governor
he will go down in defeat. The repub-
lican party hasn't a man strong enough
to be elected governor if Roosevelt is
to be the presidential candidate. l
suppose we will all have to support Mr..
Roosevelt. but he is a beaten man. OF
course. if men like Bryan control the
democratic convention there will be
a chance but as it stands today the
president couldn't make any sort of
a race
OF course there are prominent New
York republicans like Mr.. Depew who
are trying to patch up the trouble, but
so far their efforts have only added
fuel TO the flames and, try to conceal
the facts as they may, the republicans
are desperately uneasy about the re-
suit in New York in the 1904 cam

A Very Excellent Thing.

The s~tenographer who couldn't spell
was called into the private office, says
the Brooklyn Eagle.
This is outrageous exclaimed the
employer.
What's the NATTER" asked the
stenOgrapher.
Half of these words are misspelled."
said the employer.
But the stenographer was
full. Only a day or so before she had
been reading an article on spelling re-
form.
How do you know they are?" she
asked.
Any dictionary will prove it," re-
piled the employer.
What's the use of replying on die
tionaries?" asked the s~tenographer.
I'VE are in a period of great changes"
Thereupon she brought six different
magazines that had articles on the diff
ferent methods of simplifying English
spelling and demonstrated to him
without trouble that authorities could
be produced for any old combination
of letters that she cared to put to-
gether.

POLITICAL GOSSIP
New Aldermen Will be Sworn in
May Resign as n Safe Step.

The caucus of the aldermen-elect
Friday caused considerable stir among
the office holders yesterday. 1t is rue
that nothing, at any rate very little,
was known, but it was probably that
hat created the stir. The aldermen
were quizzed early, late and very often.
but they only looked wise and said
nothing. OF course, another caucus is
on tapis, but it will probably not be
held until Wednesday, the day the new
board will qualify. At this caucus, If
it is the next, the high positions the
Messenger mentioned yesterday as in
doubt will be settled. After the auc
Wednesday the board will meet and
elect the mayor and all other officers.
It is a very strong probability that
h present board, N order to obviate
any question that may arise in the flu
ture about Tuesdays election being
invalid on account of the mixed up reg
istratiOn, will resign and elect the new
members. This will make a double &C
ton election and will make assurance
dOubly sure.
The election Tuesday will be held
strictly according to the holding Of all
similar events. The polls will open and
close at the usual times, and all sa-
looms will have to be closed all day.
The present board will hold its last
meeting tomorrow night, when Mayor
