The republican county convention
held in Bellingham Saturday was q
cut and dried affair, of the OLD, old
style. The delegates might have stay
ed at home and sent in their votes
by mail and have accomplished as
much. The organization had attend
ed to everything for 1t.
George II. Bacon was elected chair
man. OF course, II was pleasant
surprise for him but ne had the
committees all written out ready 10
hand TO the secretary, which lie dlu
as soon as the customary motions
empowering him to appoint them Wts
made.
Even the rules and order of bust
ness had been written out in advance
for the committee that had been nam
ed in advance, and the committee that
was named in advance only had u
sign them. Unfortunately the typist
nad failed to put quite enough HINES
for signatures and it was necessary
for the committee to exercise enough
intelligence to draw two straight lines

The Tribune believes this was all
alright. We are not criticiZing the
county chairman or secretary. The
convention had nothing of importanot
20 do and if those officials could do II
in advance, why. that saved that
much time We merely mention how
il was handled because it was fair
ample of the sort of convention that
the republican party is growing ava!

are sorry for the growth.

WOULD KILL
The PRINCE
ASSASSINATION OF A CHINAMAN
NARROWLY AVERTED.
WoULD-BE SLAYER is CAPTURED
AS He was Drawing Revolver with
Which to Assassinate Prince Tsaf
Hsun, Uncle of Emperor of China, a
San Francisco Chnk is Caught.

San Francisco Oct An attempt
to kill Prince Tsai Hsun, uncle of the
emperor of China as he stepped from
the overland train at the Oakland
Mole half an hour before, boarding the
liner Chieyo Maru for the return trip
to China, was frustrated yesterday af-
ternoon by Harry Moffitt, secret SER
vice operative, and Detective Sergeant
George Mcmahon of the local police
department when they seized George
Fong, member of the Young China
association, as he was about to draw
a revolver with which to fire upon the
royal visitor.
Fong was handcuffed and quickly
taken from the crowd that had gath
cred at the station to welcome the
prince upon his return to this city
from his visit to the east. Fong vas
taken across the bay on a ferry boat
and hurried to Motifs offices where
he confessed his intention to assassi-
nate Prince Tsai Hsun. A five-cham-
bered revolver, fully loaded, was
found in his pocket. The arrest was
made so quickly and quietly that
neither Prince Tsai or any one of his
party or members of the reception
committee knew of it until the steam.
err was ready to sail. Then Rear Ad.
miral Thomas S. Phelps, representing
the government of the United States,
on the final ceremonies attending the
visitors departure was informed by
Moftitt of what had happened. Wheth-
er the prince was told of his close call
from death was not learned.
In his statement to secret service
men FOng denied that his action was
the result of conspiracy. He said
that the organization to which he be-
longed, while revolutionary in ten
dency, is in no way responsible for
his attempt to Stay the prince.
Fong expressed regret that he had
not accomplished his purpose, saying
that he wanted to be a martyr to the
cause to which he had consecrated his
life and that he wanted to awaken his
countrymen. He said he would have
considered it an honor to have been
put to death had he accomplished
what he sought to do.

THE WHOLLY SANE DULL.
A DiseaseIess, Stupid Age Foreseen
by Scientist.

New York, Oct. 1.-THE man of the
future will be a sane, diseaseless,
sturdy, stupid creature-when science
shall have robbed the world of both
disease and genius.
Such was the picture drawn TODAY
by DR.. William G. McCallum, profess
sor of pathology in the Columbia uni
Nersity college of physicians and sur
geons. He was speaking at the OPEN
ing of the school year of the institu.
ton. His subject was "The Future of
Medicine" All diseases except those
due to accidental causes. such as a
burn, poisoning, cuts, etc, would be
entirely eliminated, he asserted.

we have made the most progress up
to date, but in the cure of disease we
nave made little, with a few brilliant
exceptions, including yellow fever.
All insanity in time will be stamp
ed out with the exception of that re-
sulting from imprudence and intemper-
ance, which always will exist, as they
are the price of a mans personal lib
erty."
or the diseaseless, insanity-proof
age, Professor McCallum said:
Indeed, since development of gen.
ius and of special individuality and
charm seldom seem allied with per.
feet mental symmetry and balance.

which permits concentration in anoth-
er direction, | am not sure that it

people of invariable, unblemished san.

MICHIGAN DEMOCRATS.
They Meet and Denounce Tariff Bill
Favor Bipartisan Boards.

Kalamazoo, Mich, Oct. .7-Denun-
citation of the Payne tariff bill and of
the congressman from Michigan who
aided in it's passage, was outlined to-
day as the strongest plank in the plat
form of the democratic state conven-
ton to be adopted today.
The delegates to the convention eX-
pressed pleasure over what is desig
mated by them as the evasive tactics
of the republican convention in meet
ing the tariff issue yesterday, and
they prepared for fierce onslaught on
the measure and its adherents.
The promise of bipartisan appoin-
tive boards and commissions through
out the state in the event of the dem
ocratic victory was expected to large
ly eliminate the state issues in the
fight and center the contest on the
tariff and other national measures.
Vigorous charges of republican mis-
rule in the state, which was asserted
in greater part to have been exposed
in the previous campaign of Lawton
II. Hemans, the present democratic
nominee for governor, also were eX-
pected to form part of the platform.
The selection of bipartisan commits
sions, it was asserted will insure a
fidelity and vigilance on the part of
the state officials not to be obtained
in any other manner.

Kansas, o. B. Colquitt, member OF

democratic nominee for governor Sug-
gests plan by which Texas and sew
eral other states may combine for the
purpose of regulating railroad freight
rates. He says in part
1T has occurred to me that by an
act of congress such states as Kansas,
Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas, which
exchange products largely with each
other, might be authorized through
their state railroad commissions to
fix such rates and regulations on ton
mage passing between said states as
may be deemed necessary and that
such course would bring about more
perfect and satisfactory regulation of
interstate commerce than we can ever
expect through the medium and chan
nels now employed.
1T may be well, also, TO amenG the
! interstate commerce act so as to pro-
vide for a division of the country into
contiguous districts composed of the
states which largely interchange or
exchange products with each other
and provide for the appointment of an
interstate commerce commissioner for
each of these districts who could fire.
