as Silly.”
M ilwaukee , Aug. 18.—A special to
the Sentinel from Rhinelander, Wifi.,
says:
William W. Fenelon was shot at the
Rapids House office tonight by a young
man named J. B. Robbins, a salesman for
a Chicago crockery house. About eight
o’clock Robbins entered Fenelon & Co.'s
store and made a small purchase from
one of the women clerks, and made a re­
quest that she meet him after she left the
store, which was resented. Mr. Fenelon,
hearing the request, drove Robbins out
of the store and pursued him to within
half a block of the Rapids House. Rob­
bins ran to the hotel and is said to have
gone to his room and procured a revol­
ver. After closing up Mr. Fenelon went
to the hotel. As he entered the office
Robbins immediately fired, killing him
instantly. Robbins was arrested.

The Tillamook Herald says: “The Ore­
gonian’s opposition to McKinley is the
result of pique.
Mr. Scott was not
allowed to dictate the Administration's
patronage in this state. And that’s all
there is of it.” This is as silly as false
and false as silly. Mr. Scott neither
attempted nor desired to “dictate the
Administration’s patronage in this
state.’’ He neither urged nor named
any man for any office, or any office
for any man. If he ever signed a re­
quest for “patronage” for any man, it
was done in connection with others, be­
cause the paper was brought to him.
This is one kind of thing he never
liked, as all know who have tried to
get his name. Wanting no office for
himself, not even the highest the state
or the President could bestow, he has
not been agonizing to get place and
patronage for others. But, with a mix­
ture of amusement and disgust, he has
often noted how the little organs and
little politicians dwell on “office’’ and
“patronage’’ as the chief good and final
hope of man. The remark of the little
fellow at Tillamook discovers another of
’em. If he hasn’t the Postoffice already
he ought to have it.
