OUT OF POLITICS
OUT OF Mind.
Washington Recalls Roger Q.
Mills, of Texas.
Twenty Years Ago, i'm the National
Campaign of 1888, Mr.. Mills
was Perhaps, With the
Single Exception of
Grover Cleveland,
the Foremost Man
in the Demo
cratic Party.
Especial to the ARGUs.)

Washington, Aug. 22.-The bulle-
tins issued from a Washington hospital
during the past week in regard to the
condition of former Senator Roger Q
Mills, of Texas, conveyed to many
persons their first intelligence as to the
whereabouts of this once noted figure
in public affairs. Only the old-timers
about the National capital can fully
understand how a man once SO promi-
nent can becom so utterly lost to pub
lie notice and concern.
Twenty years ago, In h national
campaign of 1888, Mr.. Mills was per-
haps, with the single exception of
Grover Cleveland, the foremost man
in the Democratic party. He had
served his people nobly. He had
stood for the principle of free tradea as
n American can stand for free trade.
Mills and his bill were on every lip. It
was significant that in the famous
convention that was held at st. Louis
in tina year only one name was second
to that Of Grover Cleveland, and that
was the name of Roger @. Mills, Of
Texas. son the lines of the Mills bill
and the message''-these were the
words in which Henry Watterson de-
seribed the platform which was adopted
by the Democratic convention hen it
nominated Mr.. Cleveland for the Pres
idency.
Ten years later Mr.. Mills was sou
OF politics. Out Otit by his own act.
Out of it, having been run owe and
crushed by the same free silver jugger-
naut that ruined the political careers
OF more than one Democratic leader OF
that time. When Mr.. Mills returned
TO Texas he found that conditions had
changed. The figure of G0vernor Gull
berson had cast a great shadow across
the sunshine Of his path. Already old
experienced in b ways OF men. know
ing the ups and downs of politics, and
seeing with his keen eye nothing but
defeat before him, Mr.. Mills got out OF
the race for the United States Senator
ship.
1t was q brilliant career that Mr.,
WV LII "AH VIVA 49,
drew from politics and retired to pr.
vate life. Though a native OF Ken
lucky he had spent the greater part O.
his life in the Lone Star State. At l.
he located IN Palestine, Texas, and be
gan the study OF law. In 1852 he be
gan the practice of his profession a
Corsicana and seven years later he was
elected to the Texas Legislature. h
was a Confederate soldier, a colonel il
the Tenth Texas infantry. Whe1
peace was declared he returned to Cor
sicana and went back to the law. II
1872 Mr.. Mills was sent to Congress
and he was sent back every term sue
cseding until, in 1899, Texas made hin
q United States Senator. When b,
quit the Senate he was a comparative
ly poor man. In recent years, it i
said, he accumulated a considerable
fortune in the oil industry.

Tedious Trip and Social ObIiga-

for Admiral Dewey

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Admiral
Dewey, it is understood, practically has
decided not to go to the Pacific coast
to participate in the welcome to the
Atlantic battleship fleet when it
reaches San Francisco. He has so in
formed his intimate friends and until
he sees some good reason for changing
his present intentions will adhere to
this decision. 49,
Admiral Dewey declines to make
any statement concerning his inten-
tions on the ground .that,-whateyegx re-
ply he may give to the invitations
should be sent to those who have
urged him to attend the festivities,a In
cident to the arrival of the feet. X
The admiral would like to go to Cali
forIia and has repeatedly so. indicated
to those who have talked with him
about the matter. but there are con-
siderations of a personal nature which
make him hesitate to take the trip. In
cident to it is the long railroad ride
back and forth, besides the nightly ban
quets and innumerable other social de-
mands that would be made upon him,
all of which prove fatiguing and ex-
hausting.
The admiral's friends express the
hope that he will, with President
feet on it's return home to New York
on February 22 of next year, the. date
tentatively fixed by the president.

THE JURY oIsAeREEs.
One Man Prevents Conviction Of M.
e. Davis For Murder.

Des Moines, April 27.-The jury in
the case of the State against M. Il.
Davis, charged with the murder OF
his wife, after being out since six
O'Clock Friday evening, was unable to
agree and was discharged by the court
at noon today and the case must be
tried to new jury. The jury stood
eleven for conviction and one for &C
quittal.
The jury did not work Sunday. A..
Burrell, a negro juror. said he had re.
ligious scruples against working or
voting on Sunday. For this reason
the jury did not deliberate a single
minute all day Sunday but spent the
time loaiing about the corridors OF the
court house.
Burrell is the one who hung the
jury. He refused to consent to even
a verdict OF manslaughter. The feel
ing ran SO high against him when the
result was made known that an attack
was made upon him by a mob in the
corridor of the court house. Violence
was prevented by officers.

REFUSES TO APPOINT
STRIKE DEPUTIES.

Marshalltown, April 81 Another
squad of strike breakers. all machin-
lists, ten in number, who were recruit
ed in Minneapolis and st. Paul, ar
asked that he deputize the five patrol
ported from Chicago the night before.
General Solicitor George w. Seev-
ers of the Iowa Central and Mime
apolis G st. Louis, and F. l.. Colwell
the company's detective, called Sher-
iff c. S. Hutson in conference and
ased that he deputize the five patrol
men Colwell brought with him from
Minneapolis. Sheriff Hutson was
also asked to deputize twelve men to
patrol the company's property. Both
of these requests were not granted.
Sheriff Hutson declined to deputize
the Minneapolis men because they
were neither residents of the state
or county, and he refused the second
request because there was no appar-
ent reason for it.
Sheriff Hutson assured Mr.. Sewers
that the company's property would be
protected by force should any occa-
sion arise to do so. but he did not
think the situation as 1t now is war.
ranted the swearing in of any men as
deputies to watch the company prem
lses.
Sheriff Hutson says he has been
assured by officers of the strikers un.
ion that no violence is contemplated,
and all the strikers have instructions
to keep off the company's property.
AS long as this is done. and as long
as the strike breakers remain within
the company's premises, Sheriff Hut
son is convinced there will be no
clashes or show of violence.
