 StOlypin's Hand.

St. Petersburg. August 17.-The ac- tivity of the terrorists and reolution- ists and lack of support of the public are steadily forcing the governments hands in the direction Of repression. The events in Poland have given a new impetus to the talk of a military dictatorship which according to The Camrade fformerly The Nasha Shisn) is one of the subjects for considera- tion enumerated in the call for a meeting received by the members of the military council yesterday. The prevalence of agrarian strikes and disorders has impelled Premier Stolypin to send another circular to suppress them and prevent their rep etition M Stolypin demands increased vigil lance on the part of the administra- tive officials and police and rural guards. The members of the social revolutionary party's armed legation arrested in St. Petersburg and Moscow will be banished to remote parts of Siberia.
 Constant discoveries of laboratories for the manufacture of explosives and stores of bombs are chronicled and the arrests of three more members of the outlawed parliament are reported.
 The commission which has been ex- amining the budget with the view to securing the money needed for famine relief has succeeded in raising a fund of SIC, 1000, ,00o, half of which will be taken from the army budget. The re- mainder will come from the relief fund for the war orphans from this year's parliamentary credit and from driblets taken from various appro- priations.

 Dear Sir:
 Further replying to your favor of to a joint discussion with you on the issues of the campaign for Governor beg to advise you that the invita- tion has been fully considered by the executive committee of the Conner Club, and am directed to say that as the issues of the campaign have been fully discussed in this county on sev- erai occasions by both Mir Conner and Dr. Cunningham. 1t Is difficult to see that any light would be thrown on the situation, or any further information given the voters of this county by a discussion between you and me. the
 mere representatives of these gentle men.
 Furthermore. we must admit that we fail to understand what issues you wish to discuss So far as we can learn, Dr. Cunningham claims to stand on the same platform with MT. Co., mer. Such being the case. the pro- scussion would develop into wrangle over the personal ,harac- | ter of these gentlemen. proceeding l that we do not propose 10 take part in. l Yours very truly, Francis ].

COMMITTEE MAY DECIDE
Wh1 Is to Be Republican Candidate
For Congress In This District.
THEY HOPE TO WIN ELECTION
With Col Tom Davis Out of the
Race. Republicans Think They
Can Land the Prize.

IAN LAIn hhh GAAASs
The matter Of selection Of n candi.
date for the republican nomination for
congressman from the Second district
may be left largely 70 the congress
sional committee AZ q meeting SEIZED
uied 10 be called soon. The prelimin-
AIRY arrangements looking 10 a meeting
~ that kind hare been going on for
some time past, Chiefly under the per
sonal management Of Hon. N. e..
Keim. Of Elkins. who is looked upon
As a formidable candidate for the
place. Mr.. Keim has, during the past
few weeks, personally visited about
all of the prospective candidates. and
the majority OF them appear TO be
willing 20 allow the selection of a
candidate TO be considered by the
committee. IL is the general opinion
that a strong man must be nominated
this year 10 WIN, and should there be
as many candidates presented 10 the
nominating convention this year a.
there was last, the chances of the
winner OF the prize in the convention
would naturally be lessened. IL is be.
lieved that a meeting of the commit
tee, the candidates and friends of the
candidates would do much toward get.
ting the right man on the track and
the wrong man of the track. One
great trouble about so many candi.
dates for nomination of the kind
Is that 10 requires the spending of con.
siderable money leading up to the
convention, as was the case IL the
campaign for nomination last spring.
The selection of q candidate by the
committee and his nomination in the
convention would do away with all Of
this useless expenditure of money,
and would enable the nominee to go
into the campaign for election with
fewer political enemies The ioea is
taking very we'll with leaders of the
party in the district who are intent
upon winning this year. The an.
nouncemeDt, made some time since oy
Congressman Davis himself that he
would not be q candidate for re.nom-
instion at the hands of the democracy.
has done much to clear the republican
horizion of second district politics,
and all believe that the chance OF q
republican winning this year has ma.
terially improved with Col Davis
ann onncement. Should the committee
NEE ting proposed be held the names
of some very good men will be pre-
sented, prominent among them being
N. G. Keim, Ira. +. Robinson. Judge
