HEARST IN ILLINOIS
A Three-COrnered fractional
Fight Bars Instructions

Springfield, June 1.-THE question of
whether or not the Illinois delegation
to the Democratic national convention
will be instructed for Hearst, depends
largely upon the outcome of a three
cornered factional fight for the control
of the party organization which will
be decided at the Democratic state
The angles to the struggle are made
up of the adherents of John p. Hop
kins. which means the existing party
machine. the followers Of Mayor Har-
rson. and those who favor Hearst for
President of the United States.
Mr.. Hearst has no interest in the
fight beyond securing an instructed
delegation. but some of his chief lieu
tenants are men who were ousted from
the control of the party machine two
years ago. While they are making
strong battle for Hearst they are also
striving at the same time to regain
their lost power. The Harrison meh

Cattle and Sheepmen at War

Portland. June 13.-The Oregonian
prints today an account OF the bitter
feeling existing between the cattle
men and sheep men of Lake county
Oregon. which during the past spring
has resulted in the slaughter of 5000
sheep and perhaps the killing of one
man.
1t is stated the trouble has been
caused by rowing sheep drivers per-
sisting in appropriatlng every unfen-
ced piece of land in the district. This
is resented by the cattlemen who claim
that the sheep ruin the grazing lands.
and who say that they do not propose
to be run out of house and home by
the sheeomen.
The article states that recently the
sale OF rifles. revolvers and ammunl-
tion. has been so extensive that at the
present time every cowboy and sheep
man in the county Is armed u the
teeth.

MERGER OF ALL

New York, June 14-Announcement
VIII be made soon of gigantic new
combination of capital in the United
States and Europe. 1t is nothing less
than an amalgamation of the valu-
able mines of America. and the man
who is to consummate this stupendous
transaction is John D. Rockefeller.
Men who have some knowledge of
the work now going on i'm furtherance
of the plan say the corpo. alton under
which the big mining interests will be
merged will have par capital of
s.. 500 600 600. 1t is expected to control
absolutely the mineral output of the
United States, except, possibly, that of
the Calumet and Hecla copper mine
of Michigan.
Within the last ten days Rockefeller
has taken up personally the task which
had been left to his brother. William
Rockefeller. and to II. II. Rogers. who
have been conspicuously identified with
the mineral interests of the Standard
OH Company. For ten years the
Standard OIL millionaires have been
acquiring the mines of America
through Their bankrupt interests.
In Colorado. David II. Moffat and
Dennis Sullivan. of the First National
Bank of Denver. have paid out many
millions I'm the last six years for pro-
ducing mines and they control 70 per
cent of the producing gold, silver and
lead mines OF the middle Rocky Noun
tain district.
In California. a Western mine-own-
ing combination. controlled by Haggin
and affiliated interests. has been ready
Inent with Rockefeller for a general
combination OF mining properties.
Senator Clark, owner of the United
Verde copper mines of Arizona. and
