WANT MORE
Haines Contractors After
 Telegl aph Company

w. R. Nichols and George M. Savage have commenced suit in the superior court at Tacoma against the Postal Telerraph & Cable company for the purpose of recovering S2,443.5O damages alleged to have been sustained through the failure of the telegraph company to deliver within the specified time a message to Major W. P. Rich ardson at Skagway. The message was sent from the Tacoma office of the com pany iustructiug Major Richardson to add 5 per cent. to the contractors bid for the construction of proposed gov ernment buildings at Haines, and was to have been delivered before Il o'clock of the day of July F, 1903. The con tractors, put in a mail bid for the work work at Haines for S4S,S7O, which arrived at Skagway shortly before the bids were opened. The telegram was sent for the purpose of increasing the bid by 5 par cent. The message, it is alleged by the plaintiff, was not deliv- cred until July 20.
 Not having received any notification of au increase in the bid, the contract was awarded to Nichols & Savage on their original bid of s4S,S7O. The con tractors refused to enter into the con tract at that hgure until they were forced to do so by the United States government, which threatened to hold plaintiff and sureties on thir bond for the difference between the bid and the bid of the nextlowest contractor, which was S64,OOO.

The Hearst candidacy for Presi-
Gent is receiving unprecedented
comment at present in the national
capital from the fact that many
papers in this country who have
hitherto ignored Mr.. Hearst's can
didacy are now making generous
comments thereon. Some of the
papers that seek TO belittle Mr..
Hearst's candidacy are edited bv
men or rather controlled by men.
who have made signal success in
other walks of life, but a dismal
failure OF the newspaper business.
This is notably true of one Frank A.
Munsey, who made money as a
publisher OF a cheap magazine, but
who has lost about all he has made
as thepublisher Of daily newspapers.
Mr.. Munsey's paper, the Washing
ton Times, attacks Mr.. Hearst bit
terly without presenting arguments
against him without shadow of ex-
cuse. This may beexpectedof man
who employed men responsible for
the post-office investigation, but who
had not the courage to withstand the
onslaughts of corporate interests
and who discharged from his SER
vice the very man who started this
investigation in the rottenness of
Republican officialism. These at
tacks on Mr.. Hearst from such a
source are causing comment here
ana thereby increasing the standing
OF Mr. Hearst as a Democrat and
an honest man. The recent decision

FIGHT FOR CONTROL
Democratic Convention In
Session at Springfield.
SCHEME TO DEPOSE HOPKINS.
.Adhercnts of Mayor Harrison of Chi
cage Are For Williams of Illinois
For Prcsident-BnttIe Will he
Three COrnercd.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, June 14.-Fol-
lowers of John Z. Hopkins of Chicago,
chairman of the Illinois Democratic
central committee. provoked at an at
tempt by adherents of William II.
Hearst to cur control of the central
lie convention convened here today,
made an attempt to force Mr.. Hearst
to forego an instructed delegation to
the national convention.
The state central committee select
ed Frank Z. Quinn of Peoria as tem-
porary chairman of the convention. 1t
is thought that Quinn's appointment
will be made permanent.
The fight for control Of the state
Democratic machinery has placed the
complexion of the state ticket in the
background for the moment.
Hearst adherents purpose, it is said.
to depOse Mr.. Hopkins and to place
Willard Dunlap, Hearst's Illinois cam
paign manager. at the head of the ILL
nois Democratic machine.
At every recent state convention an
attempt has been made to depose
Chairman Hopkins, but each attempt
has failed dismally.
At present friends of Hopkins think
that Hearst, in view of his enmity to
Hopkins, should be content with an in
dorsement by the convention. Adher-
cnts of Hearst, however, believe that
they will be able to control the con-
vention at all stages.
Frank J. Quinn of Peoria is Hopkins
choice for temporary chairman.
.Adherents of Mayor Carter II. Har-
rison of Chicago are for Congressman
Williams of Illinois for president. This
makes the fight three cornered. Hop
kins and Hearst followers now admit
that they are not sure how many dele
gates each secured at the primaries.
1t is not known whom Hopkins
wants for president except that he has
opposed Hearst.
