 Hour had said he was the only man in the state who was going to have an uncontested nomination. He said that the Republicans were going to win throughout the nation, and if it would not be one shade of Republicans it would be another. He told MT. Paige he was living too fast, that the nation was living too fast. He said the Fed eral government was being asked to do many things. It had no business to do such things as appropriate money for roads, to exterminate the Gypsy Moth and the boil weevils. But not word about Hawley. He closed by saying that he did not want to see an- other tariff revision as long as he lived. That there ought to be a commission appointed and the tariff of any article modified sin2ly as needed. He said there should not be any tariff on street rails because they don't need protection. He concluded by expound- ing the old time Democratic doctrine,
 Protection should cease when an in dustry gets so it can take care of itself.'
 Colonel Matt said that he was sorry that MT. Hill was not a member of the United States senate. Every body cheered this but the congressman did not come back with a few words about harmony in the county.
 The chorus sang. "How the Hell Can We Work When There's No Work to Do?".

He closed by telling how Sheriff Hawley had made a great sheriff for Fairfield county, how he had enforced the law and should be returned. Brass bands and torchlfght processions" he said would no longer elect a man to office in Fairfield county. The candidate must have the confidence of the people, and have proven by the service that he has given in the past that he is worthy to again be returned to office and power"
 The chorus sang Bright Eyes, in back of the chair occupied by Frank T. Staples and MT. Staples thought the song was for Fred Bartlett who sat next to him.
 The gathering broke up. The work CTS had seen Hawley and Hill seated at the same table but neither one had declared himself to be for the other. They had seen the Lake and Goodwin leaders at the same table. but names Of these two gentlemen were not even whispered The dinner was fine and it was apparent that everyone there was for Col. Rogers for secretary of state If they were not agreed on any thing else. Sheriff Haw1ey was not called upon to speak
 The speakers and guests were all gathered together at short notice by telephone and Otto Lehman did not know he was going to serve the dinner until early yesterday forenoon.

San Francisco. Aug. 4.-Police de- partments all along the Pacific coast were asked today to take into custody Henry Yamuchi. a Japanese, following the finding on the Starbuck Ranch of bones believed to be those of MT. and Mrs. Thomas Kendall and their son Thomas.

B. K. {" The bones were discovered late yester- day. The table in the dining room had been set and some food cooked but left untouched. On opening the kitchen small fragments of bones were discovered and a trail of ashes was located leading from the stove to the garden. In the garden two piles of bones were found.
 The police believe the three Kendalls were killed, their bodies cut up in small bits and burned in the stove. Ya- muchi, Japanese boy, is said by Mrs. Starbuck. owner of the ranch, to have been driven away by the Kendalls a few days before the family vanished.

SECRETARY OF STATE M. H.
 ROGERS. Host At Gathering of Prominent Republican Party Workers at Lehmann's Shore House
 Last Night.

Secretary Rogers announced last night his retirement as chairman of the Republican town committee. Many of the leaders of the party are anxious to have him remain but his campaign for reelection covering the state as it does will make it impossible for him to give his attention to the position. Although there was opposition in his party to his taking the position the expressions of the workers last night were that they regretted the retire ment.
 The leaders of the party have not decided who they want for the place to succeed Rogers. Alexander l.. De- Laney and Col. Elmer H. Ravens are both candidates for the berth.
