The day opened for the delegates at 7 o'clock in the morning, when they all met at the Central Methodist Church. At 9:30 o'clock the delegates held prayer circles and family worship wherever quartered about the clty, and at 11 o'clock they at- tended the local churches.

Indiana Senator Mentioned for Presidency in 1904. INDIANAPOLIS, May 20.—Indfana Re- publican leaders and delegates to the Na- tional convention will go to Philadelphia with the intention of starting a booom for Senator Fairbanks for President in 1904. They have talked the matter over among | themselves and have come to the conclu- sion that the time ripe to begin. Since | Congressman Landis, in a speech before | the State convention, announced that In- diana would propose the name of Senator Fairbanks for President in 1904 it has been regarded as almost a certainty that Sen- | ator Fairbanks will be a candidate for the nomination. Republican leaders in the State say there 18 a growing sentiment for him else. where, and that unless something unex- pected hungens the prominent men of a | number of States will rally to his support | when the time comes for him to make an | announcement. It is generally believed | that the course of Senator Fairbanks has been pleasing to the President, Senator Hanna and others, and the leaders In this State feel that it will not be difficult to impress the crowds at Philadelphia that Senator Falrbanks is the right man for the party to name for President next time. It is probable that Senator Fair- banks will be made chairman of the In- diana delegation at Phtladelphia. There will probably be a thousand Indianans at the convention. | MAY FORM NEW PARTY. ‘Hawaiians Do Not Care to Become Republicans or Democrats. HONOLULU, May 12.—If their leaders have any control over their political des- tinies the natives of, the islands will not for some time to come express affiliation with elther of the two great political parties. So much was decided by a number of them at a meeting held recently. At this meeting were men Inclined to be Republi- | cans, and some favorable to he princi- | ples of Democracy. A majority, it may | be said, were dubious of both, and favor- | ed some sort of Hawalian alllance, tak- | ing in such whites as were acceptable to | their ideas. The Portuguese were men- tioned. The wish or desire or idea of the natives 1s to form an independent party. This was If they had a the lain in the meeting. F leadership and money this would unquestionably be done. It was re- marked that out of 14,000 votes that could be mustered the natives would poll 9009. Some of these would be lost to the Repub- lican and Democratic parties, but with white and Portuguese allies they would have a large majority. am s O SUCCESSFUL WOMAN MINER. Gold Unearthed by Men Employed by “Pop-Corn Kate.” Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., May 20.—A woman mine operator, known as ‘‘Popcorn Kate," has been tunneling on a hillside opposite Discovery, on Pine, and has taken out an ounce per day to the man, and she had sixteen men at work. There are 3000 peo- ple at Atlin and not one idle. A large number of Britishers are making big investments, totaling some milloins, in systematic working of Atlin properties. The latest rich find is reported from the bank of Lake Bennett. When some of the rallway men were prospecting they came across good surface ore about eight miles down the Jake and not far from camp B of the raflway company. A more thorough search brought about the discovery of a ledge of ore which assayed $60 to the ton in silver and gold. REA FORCES WILL MAKE A STRONG FIGHT San Jose Is Ready To-Day's Battle of Ballots. ——— Reformers Claim a Good Majority, While Members of the Gang Say the Contest Will Be Close. e e A Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, May m Politicians of both for forces took a rest to-day, and, aside from a little quiet button-holing, little campaign work was done. The lull be- fore the battle of ballots to-morrow was tiring in its quietness after the excite- ment of the last few days. Both sides are lined up for the struggle, which prom- ises to mean so much for San Jose. The real question before the voters is whether the ldmlnlatrs(lon of the city shall be gang or anti-gang. Indications are such that a victory of the citizens' ticket seems certain, but, of course, something unforeseen might hap- pen. The Rea gang admits the election will be close. ayor Martin claims his re-election, He is pleading for one more term, that some ideas that recently came to him might be put into effect. Edwards js standing on his past record as a citizen and business man. pro- gressiveness was shown in the Bank Com- misfon and the general interest he has taken in city affairs. The Citizens' Com- mittee of One Hundred claims his election and the rest of the ticket by a good ma- Jority. The Citizens’ platform is short and to the point, and with Edwards to administer city affairs along its lines San Jose's future is bright. The party declares itself for a better and greater city and the purging of yolitics from its affairs; the abolishment of favoritism and nepot- ism that has so characterized Martin's administration, and the impartial en- forcement of the provisions of the new charter. The committee pledges this ticket to such an administration: Mayor, . J. Edwards; Clerk, Villiam = J. Dougherty; Treasurer, Willlam Fischer; Councilmen—Second Ward, Byron Mil- lard; Third Ward, Tobe Lord. The Citizens’ committee this afternoon appointed a full list of precinct watchers and workers, and took other means to prevent any of the disreputable methods that have hitherto characterized politics in this city. For the first time in the his- tory of reform movements in this city has practical politicians been directing affairs. The Rea and Mackenzie push will make a desperate effort to carry the city. Their defeat to-morrow, coming on top of the Good Government League victory at the last county election, means their utter an- nihilation. They have promised positions on the boards and commissions, and even traded the rest of their ticket to try and save Martin. The orders have been to do anything to elect the Mayor, as they will have a majority in the boards ‘and com- missions for over a year, even if defeat- ed. Many former devotees of Rea and Mackenzie have deserted them, and the twin bosses realize they are up against a hard thing. It is believed Edwards will get a big quiet vote from business people who fear nnfi rule. His forces are united and confident, and theedgenerul expression is that he will be lected. “Mamma sent me to get a hair brush,” ‘“What sort of hair brush do you want?"* “I want one with a soft back."—Collier's Weekly.
