ST. LOUIS FAIR
THROWN OPEN.

Great Show in
Motion.
WEATHER NEARLY PERFECT,
TW Hundred Thousand People
Witness the Simple But
Impressive Ceremonies.

st, Louis, April 30.-When Presi-
dent Roosevelt in the White House
at Washington pressed the golden
key that formally opened the great
Louisiana Purchase exposition to the
world at 11:03 st. Louis went mad
deliriouSly, howling, screeching mad
with Joy. Whistles screeched, bells
lingled from high treble to deep bass,
and hundreds Of thousands ofthroats
sent forth cheer upon cheer.
The years of endeavor, of patient
labor and persistence have borne
their fruit and the greatest exposi,
tion the world has ever seen is open
to the public.
THE SCENE IMPRESSIVE.
There was a sharp click OF the little
instrumentin the electricity and man,
ufacturers' building and a flash as
the electric current, set In motion by
the fingers OF President Roosevelt,
galvanizedinto life the gigantic mass
OF machinery.
President Francis, bareheaded,
with watch in hand, stood between
Secretaries Taft and Moody. All
eyes we're fixed upon the distant hall
OF festivals. Then his face lighted, a
flag was slowly rising on the staff OF
the hall Of festivals. Little flags were
breaking out on the thousands oithe
staffs and cornices of the big palaces,
all set in motion from Washington.
simultaneously, there came the " hir,
the roar and the creak of pulleys az
the wheels and hSing belts of the
huge piscs OF machinery sprang into
motion.
Upon the grand cascades there was
a rush Of water and flash of flame.
The colonnade OF states became u
mass Of lights. The water rushed
out OF d myriad orifces in the ter
races, and thousand fountains be
gan to play.
The immense throng stood silent a
moment, impressed Ivy the beauty of
the scene, and then a cheer that
shook the buildings thundered over
the grounds.

"THEsCALL OF THE WILD"
4 Letter Which Has Been nuch Dis
 cussed by Arizona Democrats.

\ certain circular letter from Phce- ix has been lately more or less darkly hinted at The writers of it were MT
 W. B. Cleary and Hon. T. F. Parish constituting the nucleus of the Hearst movement in this part of the world Just what the letter set forth has not been clearly explained but The Repub- can has been fortunate enough to come into possession of a copy of it, which is herewith reproduced.
 It will be observed that the gentlemen who concocted the message to the faith full have constituted themselves q ''com- mittee on organization" Their right to do this may be questioned by the more unreasonfng democrats of the territory but any objection that may be raised will not hold water. Every great move movement for the betterment of the hu- man race must have a start somewhere and if the whole territory had been ransacked for a committee on organiz- atlon two better organizers than Messrs. Parish and Cleary could not have been found. MT. Parish was at one time chairman of the democratic territorial committee and MT. Cleary may be the chairman some time. so that their appointment of themselves to be members of the committee on organiza- tion has an official significance that cannot be lightly regarded.
 ''The following is copy of the letter for the alignment of the faithful
 Phoenix, Arizona, January 9, 1904 Dear Sir ..
 It has become evident to some of the Neading democrats of this county that the time is ripe to take some steps in order not Onl yto formulate the opinions of the democracy O this county, but also plans for successful organization and campaign In behalf of the demo- crat of our national party who will be the choice of the democracy of Marico- pa in the next presidential convention. With that end in view. q number of us have met and discussed the political outlook for 1904, and the men in the democratic party who are most spoken of for that high honor, and it has seem ed to our best judgment that the time to act has already come, and to us in Arizona there can be but one man for our choice. The consensus of opinion was that William Randolph Hearst is and must be AriZona's choice. He has always been a firm, staunch democrat, supporting Mir. Bryan valiantly in the campaigns Of 1896 and 1900, and has been the advocate of the common pee pie against the trusts, and is particular ly endeared to Ari2onians on account of the strong fight in behalf of state hood for the territories.
 After considering all these weigEty matters we desire to organize William Randolph Hearst club for Maricopa county and endeavor to be the first club CT the kind in the territory. We desire your participation in this hon. or, and know from our long experience with your sterling democracy that you would deem it an honor not only to be a member of this club. but actually work to its further success. And with

that end in view we write you request ing that you not only join yourself but actively interest your neighbors, and send us a list of all good democrats in your neighborhOod who have consented to join the club. and at some future day not far removed, we will have. grand rally, and have, as far as possible, all the promised members attend and do our best to forward the interests. of democracy, Hearst and Maricopa coun- ty. Yours very truly,

 ''The undersigned hereby authorizes the committee on o-ganization of the William Randolph Hearst club, of Mar icopa county. to sign his name to the roll of said club as a member thereof. '' Here follow ruled spaces for the names and addresses of those who want Mir. Hearst to lead in the hunt for the octopusses and the other enemies of the common people" The sheet of. paper designed for those who desire their names enrolled is of ordinary size, about ten inches in length. but it is so arranged that another sheet may be pasted on at the bottom and still an- other or the bottom of that and so on until the subscription roll may be made to reach in a continuous string from the Needles to Bisbee and from St. Johns to Yuma. Room enough can be made for all the democrats in the ter ritory.

DEMOCRATIC POLITICS
Chairman Webb on the Subject of
 Convention Dates.

Sam F. Webb chairman of the democratic territorial committee has returned after an absence of several weeks in the Imperial country. A good many Of the democrats of PhOe- nix have been rather anxious for bis return as they are desirous of having a meeting of the committee called to fix an early date for a territorial con vention for the selection of delegates to the national convention.
 The Hearst boom has sprung up in the absence of MT. Webb and the Hearst boomers arc the ones anxious for an early convention. They want the convention held while the boom is in flood tide otherwise there will be no Hearst delegation and certainly no in- structed delegation.
 Mir. Webb was asked yesterday what action he thought would be taken. He said that he had not talked with any member of the committee but speak ing for himself, he did not think it would be a good thing to hold an ear ly convention; at any rate .he could not see how the democracy of the ter ritory would be profited by an early convention.
 The national convention will not be held until July 6th, said Mr. Webb; "our delegates to the national conven- tion ought to be able to get ready to go to St. Louis in month. 1 do not think the territorial convention should be held before the latter part of May of the first of June. But whatever the majority of the committee favor will be done in the matter"
 MT. Webb was asked what he thought would be done at the territorial con- vention; whether it was likely that a Hearst delegation would be chosen or whether it was likely that the delega- tioa would be instructed for any can didate. MT. Webb declined to say any thing about the chances of Mir. Hearst and said that he could not anticipate the action of the convention.

SENSATIONAL CHARGES.
1t Is Said Officers of the Loyal Ameri.
cans Have Exceeded Rights.

Springfield ILL.,, April 6.-Sensational
charges against certain officials of the
Loyal Americans are made in bill filed
by State Insurance Superintendent Vre-
denburgh in the Sangaman county court
this evening, in which he asks that the or
ganization be enjoined from doing busi-
ness and that its assets be converted and
was granted by the court. There are 65,
600 members in the organization. Super
intendent Vredenburgh alleges that exam
ination by the insurance department of
the books of the Loyal Americans before
its consolidation with the Royal Circle.
under the title of Loyal Americans, show
ed that the organization has failed to
comply with its rules, regulations and
bylaws, and that it had exceeded its
powers.
The bill also charges that $4,000 was
withdrawn by certain officers without au-
thorization from the supreme council,
which body. according to the laws of the
organization. must sanction every expen-
diture. The Royal Circle, which was con-
solidated with the Loyal American, was
found to be insovent by the insurance
department before the consolidation and
the interpreters found that the officers
had conspired to secure 5000 and that
not one-tenth of the members voted for
consolidation with the Loyal Americans.
The bill further charges that since the
consolidation the officers have increased
their salaries from $1,000 to $4,000 per
year without warrant In law.
