THEY'RE AFTER FILLING.
For HSprsssinj Opinions Republican Machine Did Not Auigsst.

It was said to-day that plans are under way by the managers of the re- publican machine to chastise Alder man Filling of the first district for voting with the democrats on two i'm portant measures during the past few weeks. Mir Filling didn't like the idea of sending the city attorney to Hartford to inform the representa- tives of the whole state that the repub- licans of Waterbury cannot be trusted and therefore it had become necessary to ask the legislature to transact prac- tically the whole business of the mu- nicipality. and he Is said to have been in an ugly mood over it since the thing was first mentioned and it was no wonder that he allowed his feelings to get the better of him in the open as we'll as ill the private conferences. But he has big backing in his own party and it is thought they will be able to save him. Almost every republican in Waterbury who does not live by poli- tics believes in the stand the demo- crats have taken on these charter amendments and this goes good ways toward showing where they will be found in case the machine seeks to penalize Filling simply because he dropped word or two which showed that while he is republican he is not blind party follower and therefore cannot be counted upon to vote for measures which he believes are not for the public good, even though they have the sanction of the machine op- orators.

 The week preceding the inauguration these thirty men by special train will leave DeadwOod for Washington and on inauguration day will he in the van of the parade and will give special exhibition on the streets of Washing ton as to how western man takes care of himself when in the saddle.
 The big business men of the hills, who once rode the saddle for daily bread and butter. propose at their own expense to pay the president the high est compliment they can think of by coming to him as western men once lived when the ranges were wide and homes far apart AS one of the party puts it:
 .'rhe president is the only chief exec utive We have ever had in Washington who understands the west He knows what irrigation means; he knows what the west needs: he understands cattle. sheep and horses: he knows why we need extensive railway development. and he understands as few eastern men do what heroic battle the pioneers Of the west nave had to fight in order to win the prestige of the present time.
