H'mler Ihls heading short letters of In terest will be published when accompa nied, for publication, by the writers name. The Tribune will not be held re sponsible for opinions here expressed.l I I I II K I HUM CAPTAIN MOIK. t TCdllor of The Tribune. Sir: In this morning's Issue of your paper my name appeared conspicuously in connection with others and, notwlth Ktanding my aversion to letter writing, political letter writing especially, 1 fed it to be my duty to myself and others to demur to some of the statements made In article aforesaid, and a previous article In reference to a six-months' conspiracy. I ought to say I am sorry to llnd myself the Innocent cause of all this municipal trouble, but 1 am not, ami If you will accord me space 1 will try and briefly stara by case, as far as, It relates to others. My name has been mentioned In connec tion with the mayoralty for some tlms ' bui k. Three years ago it was mentioned. In fact it had narrowed dow n to two, my self and the gentleman who now Mils ihe i position. My name on that occasion wis discussed and several delegates were In structed for me at the c-unvention: our present mayor even ursreil m- to allow my name to be use I at the convention and he not being an anxious candidate, proposed that I should announce myself as a candi date in t4ie paper, he nt the same tlni announcing his withdrawal os a candi date on the ground that he would only run if the nomination was unanimously ten dered hirn, but I was not at the time a can didate and had been a warm supporter of W. I.. Connell, and it appeared to me that If I had cluinceil my mind and went in for the nomination It would have savored of trickery or taking advantage of good nature. So 1 entered the convention ns a delegate nnd had the honor of placing Mr. ConnoU's name before the convention. Since that time occasionally my name tins appeared among the possibilities, and la.--t surnm.r I was so far left to mveelf as to think that I might be able to liil the bill and that I rnlsht possibly be acceptable to my party. I naturally looked around for others In the party that favored my wild scheme. I had tacitly pledged myself to run, believing I had the same, right ns anyother Republican and still laboring un der the delusion that I might possibly be indorsed by ! party, as I had been or supposed I had been a straight Re publican, not committed to any faction in the party, laboring, as far as In me lay, at a'l times for harmony and the fur therance of Republican principles. In August a delegation from the Central Iabor cnion waited on me and tendered me an indorsement of my candidacy, should I be a candidate. I Informed them that I would be a candidate and at ay. I soon learned through the lemocra'ie press that 1 would be opposed und that It wus all understood and arranged who would be the Republican nominee. A number of toy frlemfs convened in tha rear of my place of business und discussed the matter. Anion? others who were there was the Hoc. J. A. Scranton. Hiforc that time I had no tulle with hlin on the sub ject; did not know whether he would favor my rundiducy or not. and I wus glad 1 had found one newspaper who wus with me. Another gentleman was present, John H. Fellows, and there wus no har mony to speuk of on that occasion between hlin and Mr. Scranton. They wero not eTcn speakably acquainted. The chasm, opened in the full campaign of '91, had nut been bridged over. 1 ipiote all this to show thai my candidacy was no premedi tated six-months' conspiracy nor based on anything antl-Connell. 1 know thut '.he two most prominently mentioned men, Mr. Scranton and Mr. Fellows, hud no deal ing up to within two months of the No vember election. 1 entered the light with singleness of purpose, the only purpose being to secure from my party. If posslhle, the nomination for mayor. I was no snti-t'ori-ellite or Scrantonito or any othir klnf of an Ue; but having entered the u re n a 1 welcomed every supporter so long as he was of my party. So far as Mr. Scranton Is concerned In his attack, upon me and his having no further use for me, why, tliut Is all right; there are thousands of Republicans who feel as he does. They believe that after our now famous primaries and tho sub sequent city convention, the factional spir it displayed, the one act o the committee on contested seats (thut committee could give Tamniuhy pointers), the evident de sire to crush any and all opposition, to trample on felluw-Republlcans who dif fered for the timo bring, only ns to who should represent our party In municipal affairs it was th's that embittered so many Republicans und created the desire for a third ticket. They believed that 1 ought to heud such a ticket und thut It was my duty to do so. but 1 hud to consult my own Interest and net for myself, althouuh my action has alienated many of my friends and gained no new friends. Hut as I am now a private, very private, oil l tien with strong Republican proclivities left, I can say I nm no orllce-seeker; I want nothing neither from the Connell nor Scranton or any other faction of our party, but I cun nver forget that when I did have the audacity to aspire 10 an nun. oratde public olHoe the lion. Joseph A Scranton gave me his umiuulilled support. While In the quarter I was foolish enough to suppose I hnd friends; there were not clubs enoush to be found to knock out my political brains. Respectfully. James Molr. Scranton, Jan. 3d. Weston Mill Is llronchlm: Out. E. C. Ilarnden, of the Weston mill, of this city, was in Olyphant yesterday. where he made arrangements to estao llsh a branch mill at that place. In this ho was successful, and a large ware room has been rented from which resi dents of Olyphant and vicinity cun be supplied.' Thlrt Is an Important move and one which will afford much con venience to residents and business men of that section. Curbondale Leader.
