.GRONNA WOULDN'T
KNIFE JOHNSON
LAkoTA CONGRESSMAN TAKES
EXCEPTION TO M'cuMRER
INTERVIEW.
Mr.. Gronna Declares He Il Doing
Nothing to Bring About Defeat Of
N. NJ. johnson For senator--Jurior
Senator Assaulted. "

Lakota. NJ D.. Nov. s4.--Congress
man Grohna authorizes the following
statement: My attention, has been
called to the iterview OF Senator Nc
Cumber relative to a combination al
legged to, have been formed for the pur-
pose of defeating M N. Johnson and
re-electing H. c. Hansbrough to the
u. 8. senate. As. judging by the date
of the Interview, the junior senator
must have known OF Senator Hans
brough's denial of the formation OF
the combination, 1t would seem that
the purpose of the interview was not
primarily, to help elect Mr.. johnson,
It appears that there is reason to be-
lieva &hat the story of the alleged
COMBINATION was concoted at the meet
Ing of,the Mckenzie Johnson Nc Cum
Der combination at the Merchants ho-
tel. St Paul, NoYs' IL and H. ard that
its purpose was to give S@aAAor Me-
Cumber the opportunity to. pose as
the defender of the, people against the
wicked machinations of INSCRIPTIONS
politicians, This is a new role for the
senator, and he must be excused If. in
his anxiety to make a good impression,
he Is q little lover-anxious and causes
stories to, circulate that win not gain
the widest credence.
s'Tt is possible that, as the senator
generously states the people made a
serious mistake In the election of a
congressman in 1900 and again In 1904,
but by the same. token 1t is also pos
sible that the greatest blunder, to say
nothing OF a political crime. shat a
North Dakota legislature ever was
guilty OF. was committed when, u.
5. senator. was cheated In 1885, 1t will
be remembered that N. N. Johnson. in
whose support Senator !, McCumber Is
so enthusiastic now, was a candidate
for senator at that time.
y No cenpbinatioa Formed.
s''I am doing nothing to bring about
the defeat Of M. NJ. Johnson. The
question of locality has been urged
but believe that we are both broad
enough to realize that we represent
the state and notAa county and I do
not expect to have any friction with
him In the Performance OF my duties
during the two years for which have
been elected. So far as / know, there
has been no combination formed for
the purpose OF defeating Mr. Johnson.
II is a matter OF common knowledge,
however, that combination was formed
last summer for the purpose of elect.
ing Mr.. johnson and 1t appears TO
have been unsuccessful. 1t is possible
that concerted action for the purpose
OF bringing to light certain matters in
the politics of our state, would not be
viewed by the public with that yir-
t,rNus Indignation which the fear OF
such action ;.rousessin the mind of the

BIC DRYDOCK At
SAN FRANCISCO
UNION IRON WORKS TO BUILD
ONE TO ADMIT THE LARGEST
SHIPS.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 15.-A new
drydock, capable of accommodating
any ship in the Pacific, has been order
ed by the Union Iron Works. Build
ing is to begin Immediately upon ac-
ceptance of the contract, which will be
Tor more than half million dollars.
This is the moS important move
made by President Charles M. Schwab,
president of the United States Steel
Corporation, in relation to the Union
Iron Works since he announced that
the plant would be developed, due to
the expected increase in shipping and
mining industries on this coast. There
is already one drydock at the plant,
but another is needed to handle the
work that is planned for the future.
General Manager J. J. lyman made the
announcement of the drydock project.

IMMENSE COAL FIELDS
AM f,f,u,r, ~ -,

AMI PETROLEUM LANDS.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 14.-Af-
ter an exhaustive investigation into the
minerals of the North Pacific Coast,
the United States Geological Survey
has just issued a report Showing the
existence of marvellous coal and petro-
leum lands in the region of Controller
bay
1t is expected that this discovery will
have a direct effect upon the cost OF
shipping on the Pacific Coast and in
the case of future naval operations in
Pacific waters, coal will not have to
be brought half way around the world
for the use of warships.
Coal of a thickness of 80 feet was
found in many places ana large por-
ton of it has the burning properties of
anthracite. Great quantities of semi
bituminous coal were also found, which
under test produced coke of excellent
quality. This is an important factor
in view of the project to build sp1elters
in this region for the Alaska copper
mines. The fuel problems confronting
the mining industry of Alaska make
this discovery one of far-reaching inn
portance.

Whereas, the continuance of the Ha-

fact remains that eight years have
passed away without change, except by

lands has been changed from five years
to fifteen years, which has encouraged

SPEAKING LAST NIGHT

The last rally of the campaign took
place at the courthouse last night to
{: full house. The honor of presiding
was rendered to Major L. T. Izlar, who
did the honors in his usual graceful
and acceptable manner. Time was
limited. Legislative candidates were
given ten minutes and the others five
minutes, just time to bow their
acknowledgements, look their hand
soonest and smile their sweetest.
Many ladies were present and their
smiles were indeed appreciated. Hon.
=. w. Knight, of Floral City, a candi-
date for state comptroller, was among
the speakers and explained that he
was not a postoffice defaulter, instead
had paid ahead as postmaster at
Floral City.
When all the candidates had been
heard Major Izlar gave his views OH
the political situation by having the
legislature enact1s the "granddaddy
clause" which would eliminate the
colored. vote in Florida and forever
settle the question of white supremacy
and his remarks Were particularly ad-
dressed to the candidates for the leg
islature.

THE ELECTION

The election up to noon was very
quiet. All the saloons were closed
and ifsit had not been for the small
stream of people who were vending
their way to the courthouse it would
Rave appeared more like Sunday than
a week day. Up to noon 275 votes had
been cast. The inspectors Of the cleo
ton were Messrs Shaw. Pittman, D..
A. Miller, and Henry Sistrunk at box
M to u, while Messrs Tex Martin, L..
+. Ballard. Sam Christian and w. G..
Jeffords presided over box A to L. The
courthouse door was guarded by
Sheriff Gordon and voters admitted
just as fast as they could cast their
ballots, which was not very fast, as the
ticket was long and contained 12S
pames.
In the lobby Of the courthouse the
candidates awaited the arrival of their
friends to get encouraging words from
them and give some stranger the glad
hand whom they had not seen during
the campaign, but Is was quite evil
Cent about every voter had selected
his favorite ere coming to the polls, at
least so far as 1t pertained to the local
llChcl, WHIiC ilOSt VI IiiS III
PRESIDENTIAL electors was an unknown
quantity to the voters and in many
cases they were skipped.
An incident that attracted attention
was the arrival in the rotunda of the
courthouse at one and the same time OF
Messrs. George MacKay and Ed Car
michael, opposing candidates for the
office Of county commissioner from
afe Ocala district, each bent on kill
ing the others vote and the schemes
they voiced in doing this murderous
deed provoked much laughter among
the by-standers.
The shower at 10 o'clock for a few
minutes threatened the supremacy OF
the wet side but later on it cleared UP
and everything was sunshine and fol-
the rest of the day the weather was
ideal.

Ocala has just escaped the disaster Of
having her saloons. with all their be-
rign and civilizing power and in
fluence, closed; they have been secured
to her for two years longer, at any

Morning

AS the result of a speech made by
Congressman Frank Clark at the Du-
val Theater in Jacksonville last Sat-
rIday night. in which he severely
criticised Ex-Governor w. S. jennings
the latter personally resented the
charges by an assault on Clark at tn"
Aragon hotel in that city Sunday
morning.
Congressman Clark was struck sew
cral vigorous blows on the head by ex-
Governor Jennings, who used Mr.
Clark's own cane in the attack, the
latter being broken in its use.

Statements of Two Principals
The assault by the former governor
created a decided sensation, and state
ments given by the participants differ
In card issued by Mr.. Clark he says
he was standing in the lobby of the
Aragon hotel, talking with DR.. Nun

ing at an illustrated folder of the col.
lege, when Mr.. Jennings approached

him over the head with it, He say.
he was not aware Mr.. Jennings was in
his vicinity until he received the frs
blow.
Mr.. Jennings says he asked Mr.
Clark to step aside with him; tina
Clark handled his stick as though HI
was going to use it: that he thel
wrested the cane away from Clark ant
used it himself, and that Clark drew ;
