Th tdeai to be conveyed! that Senator
Mitchell own Mr. Williamson. In answer
to the claim mad for support to Wil
liamson upon 'this ground. It was con
tended that Senator Mitchell recently
voted for the ship-subsidy bill; that there
is' little likelihood' of Us passing the
House at this session; that In the event
It passed the Senate At the next session
Senator Mitchell, who favors tt now
would likely favor It then;, and that Mr.
Williamson, owned, by Senator Mitchell,
would cast his vote In favor of the ship
subsidy bill at' the dictation of Senator
Mitchell. , "V
Again It 1 Urged by opponent of Mr.
Williamson that O. W. Fulton and Mr.
Williamson are olos friends. Williamson
is a hold-over Senator. FultonNranta to
be United States Senator. Mr. William
son, will do all in bis power to elect
Charles Fulton to the United States Sen

of the legislature. The people up here
do not want Fulton, and It Is apparent
altq that they do not want Williamson in
Congress. -
