WALLA YALLA. April 3.-The
Union says: simultaneously with the
withdra wal of surveying crews sent
out from this city by the W. c. X.
to run lines from Athena and Pendle-
ton respectively for proposed extern
sions of that road, came the announce
ment of the withdrawal of the survey
ing parties working for the Northern
Pacific and O. r. & N. in the Lewiston
country.
This leaves no room for speculation
as to the cause which impelled the sus-
pension of operations in both locah-
ties. When the surveying parties were
sent out it was evident that something
portentious was about to happen IN
railroad circles, and while no positive
information could be ascertaineo'
enough of the plans leaked out to con-
vince the public that railway build
ing war was eminent
The sudden suspension of these plans
is suspected as meaning that the rlvai
lines have again patched up their dl1-
ferences and it is not improbable that
all railroad building in this section OF
a cometpitive character is at an enc
for the present. People who were cal
culating on seeing active work on ne"
roads in various directions Will very
likely be doomed to disappointment
This is an especially keen disappoiht-
uent AS it would have meant, had the
work been carried out as planned, uh
usually good times while 1t was III
progress. in addition to bringing III
naturally contiguous territory no"
semi-separated. into close touch' aho
a, tho same time have furnished an
! outle, to sections of country now prac-
ticallv without transportation faciilties
and which only await this improvement
to Quicken into communities OF active
growth and progress.
Inst what sort of an agreeneh. ha'
| haan entered into between the t"'
roads Is not known to the pubic pu
the sudden suspension of operations
and the entire withdrawal OF all sur
veving gangs is the very best evloehc'
that an agreement of some description
has been entered into that neither hh'
J yil, invade the present territory OF tn'
other.

Controller Gordon Il. Atkinson was in
dorsed for denomination without opposi-
ton, and under the party practice he will
be allowed to name the county's represen-
tatives In the state convention.
The majority for Mr.. Lee for senator over
Col Jones was at least six hundred and
may reach eight hundred. 1t is claimed
that in Damascus district the ballot box
was stuffed. The total number of votes
cast there. according to telephone advices,
was 80. which is over 200 more votes than
were cast by all parties in that district at
the general election last fall. OF this vote,
Col. Jones received a majority of DOB,
which reduces Mr.. Lees majority In the
county to about 600. 1t is thought, how
ever. that the vote as reported is incor-
Sect.

lowing is the total vote received by each
candidate:

BOYD'S, Md, August g. 1905
A question is being raised In this county
as to the fairness of the primaries held in
the Damascus district yesterday. 1t is al
legged that the vote cast exceeds the vote
Of all parties In the district by more than
two hundred. Mr.. Lee is accredited with
having received 14S votes and Jones 81,
making a total OF $40. and the total vote
Of the county for all parties does not ex-
coed $40.
1t is charged that the returns from the
Damascus district were held out until the
returns from all other districts were known.
The leaders of both factions of the demo-
cratic party are aroused. and 1t Is believed
that protest will be made against counting
the district. The matter will be investi-
gated and decision will be made Tuesday.
The supporters of Mr.. Blair Lee who rep
resent the Raynor faction of the party. ac-
cuse the Jones men Of stuff1ng the ballot
box.
At Poolesville yesterday Takoma, the
champions of Montgomery county last year
were defeated by Poolesville in q base ball
game by a score of 10 to / before COO per-

the twirling of Bell, coupled with fine sup
port given Bell. was responsible for he
Takomas defeat. Dexter. center fielder for
Takoma, did fine work and kept down tire

MACKEY VS.. SWANSON
FORMER SAYS HE HAS DISCOVER
ED ADDITIONAL MATTERS.

Referring to the replies Of Representative
Claude A. Swanson. candidate for the gov
ernorship of Virginia. to an article which
was published last week In Virginia
paper. attacking Mr. Swanson for his record
in connection with certain post Office mat
tiers which became the subject of official in
vestigation. Mr.. Crandal Mackey, common
wealth attorney for Alexandria county,
above whose signature the allegations were
made, stated this morning to a Star re-
porter that Mr.. Swanson seemed to be able
to find no more substantial retort than to
allege that the author of the publication
was not Virginian. Mr.. Mackey declared
that such was the sum and substance Of
the comments which Mr.. Swanson had
made on the article in his public speeches
in the state. The people of Virginia, Mr..
Mackey said, would not be satisfied with
any such dismissal of matter which, In
his opinion, Is Of unusual gravity.
Must Answer Them CategoricalIy.
He thought that Mr.. Swanson would be
compelled by pressure of public sentiment
to take up the various points of the publica-
ton in question and to discuss them fully
and categorically. Mr. Mackey believed
that Representative Swanson would have
an impossible task in attempting to furnish
the people Of the state with satisfactory
explanation of his conduct in the matters
involved. He said that Mr.. Swanson de-
sired to rid himself of the annoying queS-
lions raised in the article by saying that
the attack had come from person outside
the state. This charge. Mr.. Mackey as
serted, was both absurd and groundless. AS
to his nativity he said that both his parents
were lifelong residents of Virginia, where
he had spent a great part of his own life.
For generations back. he said. his family
had lived in Virginia. and declared that no
man had better right to citizenship in the
state and Identification with Its interests
than he. On this question he invited
comparison with the history Of his own and
Of Mr.. Swans0n's ancestry.
More Charges to Come.
But Mr.. Mackey insisted that such dis
cussion was wholly irrelevant and had been
raised by Mr.. Swanson in order to avoid the
real issue. AS to the scope of his accusa-
tons against Mr.. Swanson's record, Mr..
Mackey said that by additional investiga-
ton he had learned several more things,
founded. he said, upon unquestionable docu-
mentary evidence, which he would have en-
bodied In his published letter If he had been
in possession of the data when the article
was written. He intimated that he would
have more to say respecting Mr.. Swansons
connection with post Office appropriations
before the present campaign in Virginia il
over.
