REGULARS AND RUMPs AGREE
Two Silver Parties Join Hands

Nevada Republicans

A Reno dispatch Of August IS says
that as the result of an arrangement
with @. E. Mack, Richard Kirman,
Frank Folsom and several others of the
"Stalwart" or trump" Silver Party
leaders, it looks now as though the
trump organization had been com
pletely dissolved and that its member.
ship would hereafter affiliate with the
regular Silver Party. which has beer
fusing with the Democratic party fol
many years.
The arrangement was negotiated al
Reno, aud under its terms the "rumps'
were permitted to name the Silver de-
legation from Washoe County, in
which Reno is located, to the State Con
vention. and given assurances that theil
leaders would be taken care of when
nominations are made.
Former Judge Mack, of the ''rumps,'
it is understood. is to either receive the
Dsmocratic-Silve nomination for the
the Supreme bench, or is to be nomi'
mated for Judge Of the Second District,
which comprises three of the largest
counties il the State-Washoe, Churc-
hill and Humboldt. Richard Kirman,
another"rump' leader, has been offered
the nomination for State Treasurer
upon the Democratic Silver ticket.
Other leaders of the trump" Silverites
will be taken care of with nominations
Of lesser consequence.

FEDERAL POLITICS IN NEVADA
The Fight to Succeed Hawley on
the Circuit Bench Grows
More Bitter

Carson City, Aug. 13.-Nevada poll.
ticians fear that unless President Roose-
welt changes his attitude a third man
will win the plum in the shape Of the
Federal Judgeship for the Nevada Dis
trict to succeed Judge Hawley, retired.
The fight between w. A.. Massey of
Reno and f. S. Harrington of Elko has
reached such an acute stage that the
Chief Executive and his advisers are
considering the appointment of a COM
promise candidate.
Senator Nixon recommended Earring
ton for the vacancy. while National
Committeeman Flanagan recommended
Massey. After both recommendations
had gone in. Massey's friends filed aft
davits, so it is said, stating that Far
rington was and had been for some time
a paid representative of the Southern
Pacific Railroad, and had peer interest
ed in a number of suits which would
soon be heard by the Federal Court in
this District. Farrington's friends re.
Piled to this attack by citing that
Massey had not been regular" polite
ally. he having supported the Silver
Party two years ago.
The matter is now in such shape that
it threatens to disrupt the Republican
organization in the State, and it is init
mated the President may call the re
firing Judge Hawley to make a recon
mendation, ignoring the men proposed
by Nixon and Flanagan.
Judge DeHaven of the upper Cali,
fornia district conducted Court here
last week, and has made preparations
to return in October. unless tho matter
is settled by that time.

Senator w. A. Clark Of Montana, who
controls the Salt Lake and Los Angelo:
route and the railroad now building to
Bullfrog, certainly has a short memory
Ia an interview while visiting this State
recently he said that he was going tc
give the people Of that country achanct
for their lives. The following item from
the Rhyolite Herald explains a story Of
''do 'em while you cam"
parties coming up from Las
Vegas are much worked-up over the
seemingly unnecessary wait at that
burg. The train for Roses Wells
leaves Vegas a half hour before the
arrival Of tho Salt Lake train, neces-
stating a lay-over of 20 and a half
hours at Vegas. That place hasn't
any very well established reputa-
ton as a Summer resort and but
few people hesitate about taking
the first train for Rhyolite. Some
times the train for this district is
still in sight when the Salt Lake
train pulls into Vegas and the pas
sepgers feel constrained to say
things"

Ill have claimed that he placed st.
Louis under a heavy debt Of gratitude
when he helped to make 1t famous by
writing The Crisis" and that after
the publication of this romance 1t only
needed the worlds fair to lift that
municipality to a pinnacle Of glory.
Though the book made him popular in
his home town, Mr.. Churchill removed
from 1t to Cornish, n. H., where a
summer colony of artists and literary
people has sprung up. At first Mr..
Churchill, too, expected to make New
Hampshire only his summer home, but
he liked it so well he decided to stay
the year round. He is a young man
still. He will not be thlrty-five until
November. 1t is not yet ten years

appeared. As a boy he had an ambi-
ton to become an admiral OF the navy
and so went to the Annapolis acad-
envy, but he found that writing rather
than fighting was his forte and so
turned aside to journalistic paths.
He had hardly turned thirty when he
went to Cornish. His nelghbors liked
him, and he and his wife entertained
them, 500 at a time. at theiS beautiful
home, Harlakenden House. AS one of

So he was sent to represent the Cor

legislature and served two terms. 1t
was supposed that the colonel-he has
been a colonel on the governors staff
would be a candidate for the state
senate and perhaps after that for con-
gress. But his admirers decided that
such promotion was too slow. The
Lincoln Republican club proposed him
TO. the nomination of its party for
governor, and he accepted its support.
He promises that II nominated and
elected he will work for these things:
Abolition Of the railroad lobby in the
legislature, a direct primary law and
more equitable state taxation.
The capital Of New Hampshire is
Concord. In this connection the
young novelist's wellwishers say that
throughout his career his winning let
