the upper end of the county.
Last Saturday night nearly a
third of an audience greeted the
democratic spellbinders at the
opera house in this city. The
weather was cold, and the speak
ers were in a similar condition.
There may have been some latent
enthusiasm present but it did not
get out of the shell. The local
leaders were disheartened at the
lack of interest. Very few left
the hall during the speaking be
cause it was bitter cold outside
Attorney Malcolm Lindsey pre-
sided at the meeting, and the
only evidence of appreciation
shown was when the chairman
introduced the different speakers.
Rarnac1e J.=O'Connell. the coined
ian of the Thirteenth General
Assembly, was the first speaker,
and the manner in which he ad-
rotlv evaded a debate with his
opponent was explained TO the evil
dent satist action of himself.
Judge A. H. DeFrance made d
quiet and impressive speech, stat
ing that he declined to discuss the
issues of the campaign, while he
was a Judge on the bench, as it
was contrary to his principals and
practice in the past. The
venerable judge made the only
really sensible talk of the evening
In direct contrast was w. B.
Morgan. of Trinidad, democratic
candidate for the office of attorney
general, who was the next speak
er. With an effort at sarcasm he
excorlated the supreme court,
the corporations, legislatures, re
publican party, law makers and
the high prerogative. He prom
ised, if elected to create havoc
in all the courts. by collect
ing the corporation taxes.
Senator Ward was the last
speaker and devoted the greater
part of his discourse to an eulogy
of Henry M. Teller. who after
thirty years, left his party
for his party's good. The
talk made by Senator Ward
while eloquent at times, was not
interrupted with spasms of ap-
plause. With tears i'll his voice
and choking with a sore throat
and emotion, he implored those
present to vote on election day
for that grand old agitator T. M.
p. and his aid de camp, Barnacle
O'C.

Charles McDonold, who claims
to be miner employed at Lamar
tine and who some weeks ago
proclaimed his ability to whip the
entire population of Idaho Springs
including the whole police force,
but who was arrested and fined
upou the charge of being drunk
and disorderly, again made his de-
but as a bad man Wednesday
night.
McDonoid. who weighs over
200 pounds and is over six feet in
heighth, absorbed copious guam
titles of the product of the distill
cry; ran bluff on several men of
small stature and in order to ex-
hibit his powers, he struck a II5-
pound man on the jaw. Having
established reputation he was
about to go home, and was pa
rading his horse up and down on
the sidewalk when the night mar
shall demonstrated with him. He
again annou need his ability to
wipe up the earth with that
gentleman, and having a hazy re-
collection of a former encounter,
was about to get busy when Night
Watch Mitchell suddenly handed
him one on the ear, after which he
was eager to go to Jail. He had a
new candle stick in his hand which
dropped to the sidewalk when
Mcdonald did.
Thursday morning Police Magis-
trate Wilkins held a session of his
court and McDonold answered to
the charge of disturbance, carrying
concealed weapons and resisting
an officer. Evidence was adduced
which left no doubt in the mind of
| the court as to the man gurlt.
The fine and costs imposed upon
| the offender amounted to nearly
5000 and Mcdonald is now doing
time in the county bastile, where
he will remain for a couple of
months. When he is released
from the county Jail, the city
authorities will insist that he
serve out the former city fine,
which is yet unpaid, and the bad
man will probably have work on
the streets with ball and chain at
tached as a municipal orna ment.

CRITICISM OF OPEN SHOP
POLICY OF GOVERNMENT PRINT.
ING OFFICE TAKEN UP BY
FEDERATION OF LABOR.

Minneapolis, Nov. Discussion
and perhaps denunciation is in store
for the open shop policy Of the gov
eminent printing office on the floor
of the present convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor now in SEES
sion in Minneapolis. A resolution has
been introduced under special order
by Delegate Checking, in behalf Of the
International Typographical union, the
International Printing Pressmen's uni
on, the Assistants union and the In
ternatiOnal Brotherhood Of BOOkbind-
ers. 1t recites an order by Public
Printer Charles A. Stillings directing
the foremen and chiefs of departments
in the government printing Office to
prepare lists of employees whose serv-
ices can be dispensed with, basing
their findings on the efficiency, charac-
ter, department, health and cleanli.
ness, attendance, length of service,
future desirability and special defects
of the men in question. This order,
the resolution AYERS, tends to humili-
ate the employees OF the othce and Will
bring dissatisfaction, discord and dis
organization among them, results pref
judicial to the best interests and ef-
f1ciency of the government printing
Office" 1t also, so says the resolu-
ton, tends to prejudice the stand
ard and independence of an American
citizen"
The resolution calls on the fedora
ton to investigate, through its ex-
ecutive council, the general policy of
Mr.. Stillings toward the employees of
the Office and recommends that "heads
of departments removed from posi-
lions by reason Of refusal to stultify
themselves by aiding in such methods
be offered every protection possible
by the American Federation of Labor. y
Back of this resolution is suspi-
cion on the part of trades unionists
that the proposed wedding out process
is a ruse to cover the discharge of
union employees. 1t Is probable that
the "open shop" policy announced by
President Roosevelt in the Miller case
will come in for it's share of comment
when this resolution is taken up.

ANGLo-FRENcH AGREEMENT,

RrItons to Aid France In Event of War
.-, !. With Germany.
Paris, Nov. 1.-THE passage be-
tween Premier Clemenceau and SEN
ator Gaudin de Villaine in the senate
Nov. 20 on the subject of the report
ed Anglo-French naval convention con-
tinues to attract the attention of the
press. The Gil Bias says that M.
Clemenceau, during the course of a
private conversation, declared that it
was to the honor of ex-Foreign Min
lister Delcasse that he insured the
support of Great. Britain in the event
Of conflict between France and Ger
many. The paper adds: u.
1T is no longer a secret that a
naval convention between France and
Great Britain exists by which Great
Britain, in reply to-. the first shot
fired by Germany against France on
land, will attack the German ports"
The Associated Press is enabled to
state that the reports of naval con-
vention between France and Great
Britain are as untrue as the recent re.
ports Of a military convention between
the two powers Nevertheless It is
true that the relations between France
and Great Britain reached stage dur.
Ing the past year where formal con-
ventions were not deemed to be nee
essary. Great Britain's aid was as
sured during the Moroccan crisis and
the understanding between the two
governments is now of such q char
acter that support In case Of eventual
tiles could be quickly arranged.

through that dreadful driving storm
and darkness the faithful keepers were
at their posts, for the light burned
brightly On Wednesday, the 10th, the
gale had become a hurricane, and when
at times the tower could be seen
through the mists and sea drift it
seemed to bend to the shock of the
waves. At O'clock that afternoon an
ominous proof of the fury of the waves
on Minot's ledge reached the shore,
a platform which had been built be-
tween the piles only seven feet below
the floor of the keepers room. The
raging seas then were leaping fifty feet
in the air. Would they reach ten feet
higher, for if so the house and the
keepers were doomed? Nevertheless,
when darkness set in the light shone
out as brilliantly as ever. But the gale
seemed, If possible. then to increase.
What agony those two men must have
suffered, How that dreadful abode
must have swayed IN the irresistible
hurricane, and trembled at each crash
Ing sea! The poor unfortunates must
have known that if those seas, leapilg
always higher and higher, reached their
house it would be flung down into the
ocean and they would be buried with
it beneath the waves.
To those hopeless. terrified watchers
the entombing sea came at last. At 1
o'clock in the morning the lighthouse
bell was heard by those on shore to
give a mournful cIang, and the light
was extinguished. 1t was the funera!
knell of two patient heroes.
Next day there remained on the rock
only eight jagged iron stumps

WHITE HOUSE NEEDS REPAIRS
Building That Seems to Want a Whole
Lot of Attention.

Washington, July 3. = Since the
adjournment of Congress, it has de
veioped that extensive repairs will
have to be made to the White House
before President Roosevelt and his
family return to it next autumn.
While no definite determination of the
matter has been reached, it may be
that the president will not return to
Washington until late next October,
instead of arriving here from Oyster
Bay about the first of October as usual.
Congress was asked. at its recent ses-
sion, to make 4 considerable appro-
priation for extraordinary repairs" at
the White House. Some reluctance
was manifested by congress in making
the appropria ton but sum of $780,
coo finally was authorized to be ex-
pended. Practically the whole of
this amount will have to be used in
making the repairs necessary.

NO LIGHT ON THE CAUSE
Inquest on the British Railway Horror
Adjourned for Two Weeks-Chica-
go Man at Deaths Door.

Salisbury, England, July 3. 80 The
embalmers have prepared for dispatch
to the United States bodies Of those
citizens Of that country who lost their
lives in the wreck Of the Plymouth ex-
press. The inquest was a prolonged
and tedious formaIity, which utterly
failed TO give any idea of the cause of
the accident. No questions on thar
point were asked and the subject
seemed to be avoided The inquest
was adjourned for two weeks. The de-
lay is believed to be due to the de-
clared intention of the board Of trade
to institute an investigation.
One Of the most interesting cases at
the infrmary is that Of Robert S.
CritcheI, of Chicago. He is constantly
watched over by his cousin, j. T.
Critchell of London. who. oddly
enough, started in his business career
within a few yards of the spot where
Critchen now lies at deaths door The
doctors. however, have not given Up
