Gentleman from Texas Disagrees With | Cleveland.| Washington, Jan. 15.—The reso-| dates, the meeting-places and the lution offered in the senate by Mr. Mills yesterday in favor of the free coinage of silver and for other pur- poses was taken up to-day, and Mr. Mills addressed the body. The real force behind the controversy and that which has been urging on for years was, he said, the national banks, which claimed that the pre- rogative of coining and issuing money, which necessarily belonged to the government, really belonged | to them and that they must exercise the prerogative of contracting and expanding the currency and of ehanging the standing of value as might suit their personal interests. At considerable length and with his usual display of fervor, in man- ner and language, Mr. Mills review ed the history of the national bank- ing system and argued in favor of abolishing it—quoting from the platforms of political parties in sev- eral states against the national banks and against bank note circu- lation which he said cost the people 100,000,000 a year. He expressed his regret at having to differ with the president in re- spect to cancelling and withdrawing government circulation and to sub- stitute bank circulation for it. Criticising the recommendations of the president to fund the green- backs and treasury notes in interest bearing bonds. Mr. Mills declared that teaching was contrary to that of all the parties who had elected presidents. On this point he con- trasted the views of President Cleve- land with those of President Wash- ington—“A patriot president, not a political president,” he said “who recommended the payment of the existing national debt and the avoid- ance of new debts.” Summing up the views expressed by Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, Van Buren, Buchanan and other great men of the past, he declared that it had been the democratic policy from the organization of the party to pay the public debt and keep the resourses of the eountry from being encumbered. “Shall we now,” he exelaimed, “turn round. retrace our steps, es- tablish, fortify and keep moneyed aristocracy in this country and stop the vain effort to maintain free insti- tutions and transmit them unimpair- ed to our ehildren?” The National Conventions. The first of the regular national delegate conyentions for the nomi- nation of candidates for president and vice-president were held in 1831 and 1832, to put up candidates for the election which took place in the latter year. The anti-Masonic party | the first of the “third” parties which have figured in national politics, was | the earliest organization to adopt this system. It made its nominations in a convention which met in Balti- more September 26, 1831, and put | up William Wirt for president. The | great parties of the day at once | In New York, | adovted the system. Pennsylvania and New Jersey at an | eerlier date the germ of ithe plan | was seen in operation, but the sys- fem was not adopted on a national | scale until the campaign of 1532. Previous to that time presidential nominations were made by caucuses | of the parties’ members of congress, | by expressions of preference by the parties’ representatives in the legis- latures, or by common consent. | These are the opening and closing candidates of the democratic nation- al conventions: | 1882—May 12 | Iss6—May A SWELL DINNER Isn’t complete without Good Groceries.

The “Home Guards” of Missouri during the war were pitted against the bushwhackers were much like them in irresponsibility and the character of their warfare. Evident ly the new republican statesmen from Missouri have gone to Wash- ington with but one idea in their heads and that is to get some of the public funds for their friends. TALKING ABOUT GOVERNOR. | Judge Gibson Wil! bea Leading Can-/ didate in the Race, The Hannibal} Journal of a recent date publishes a long artiele com- plimentary to the candidacy of Judge Gibson of Kansas City, for the democratic nomination for gov- ervor. In fact the democratic press of the state are saying many kind things of Judge Gibson for governor and among the many names men- tioned to head the ticket this year none are more deserving than Judge Gibson. He isa native Missourian, aself made man and his career has always been an honorable one and he is always a democrat, whether in the lead or suffering defeat. His conduct when defeated by Nevada's distinguished son, Hon. W. J. Stone, four years ago is well remembered. Judge Gibson was the first defeated candidate to mount the platform and pledge his support to Mr. Stone, and well did he keep his word, for he made an active and ef- fective canvass of the state for the man who defeated him in conven- tion. Judge Gibson is an ardent sup- porter of the coinage of silver at 16 to 1 and in this he is in touch with the democracy of Missouri. If Judge Gibson is selected to head the ticket in 1896, he will make acanvass that will mean success and when he is elected he ability, has the honesty aad integrity to give the people an administration that will reflect credit upon the best state in the Union. NO MORE FAT FE Bilito Abolish the System in Federal Courts. Washington, D. O., Jan. 16— Congressman Tracey introduced in the house to day a bill of general in terest to Missouri. The measure, while national in scope, is also of state imterest because it affects the federal courts in St. Louis and Kan- sas City. It provides for abolishing the fee system in federal courts throughout the United States. In lieu of fees the bill provides a graded system of salaries. The measure will affect United States marshals, their deputies, clerks of United States courts and United States commis- sioners. As provided for in Mr. Tracey's bill, United States marshals | will receive salaries ranging from $2,000 to $6,000, clerks of United! States courts from $1,500 to $3,500! nd United States commissioners from $500 to $1,590. Mr. Tracey | also provides salaries for United!” States deputy marshals and the minor officials of the courts. i The measure will be vigorously | fought in every quarter, but Con- gressman Tracey insists that he will | « : | follow it to the end.
