The delegation stands 24 to 2, and under its instructions for Blackburn and the unit rule, it is the same as solid. When some gold men protested against the iron clad instructions, they were cited to the case in New York when 30 delegates from that State were against Cleyeland at his first nomination in 1884, and under the unit rule the whole vote was cast for Cleveland, and again at the last Democratic national convention it was cast as a unit for Hill. Blackburn and Hardin were free silver running mates in the last cam- paign. Rhea and Ellis, the other two delegates at-large, have been the leading stump speakers in the free silver canvass, which closed last Saturday. They are exceptional orators Nelson, Rothwell, Hallam and Carroll, the alternates, were also prominent for free silver in the can- vases, as were Tarvin and Smith, the candidates for electors. From ex- pressions among the Kentucky dele- gation it is learned their second choice for President is Bland of Missouri. The convention reassembied at 9:30, but it was 10:30 before the committee on credentials reported, the committee having been in con- tinuous session all night. Blackburn entered the hall while nothing was doing and was accorded a rousing ovation. The committee on permanent or- ganization recommended a complete reorganization of county committees as well as State organization, silver men being put in charge with Major Johnson of Lexington chairman of both State executive and central committees. This will remove State headquarters from Louisiana to Lex- ington. Colonel W. C. P. Breckinridge, after being repeatedly called for,had the distinction of being the only| gold standard man to address the convention except Chairman Long, whose remarks yesterday were called his farewell address. Colonel Breck- inridge was given close attention, although he told the convention that the recent silver victory was due to The T. J. Carroll, who was selected as .|the Louisville member of the com- mittee on resolutions, and who had prepared a minority report, was un- seated before permanent organiza- tion. Chairman Thompson, as a courtesy to the minority, offered to present the report, but a point of order was raised that the minority paper was not from any member of the convention. Among the dilatory ity report to John Sherman. On motion the minority report was read. As Senator Carroll of Louisville was among those who did not sup- port Blackburn after the latter’s caucus nomination for Senator, the delegates treatedthe minority report with some disrespect, but when Jonn S. Rhea appealed for respect- fal consideration, the minority re- port was re-read and promptly de- feated by an overwhelming vive voce vote, when the majority report was adopted. Blackburn, Hardin, Rhea and El- lis were elected delegates at large, and Nelson, Carroll, Hallam and Rothwell alternates, all by acclama- tion. J.P. Tarinand W. B. Smith were nominated as electors at-large by acclamation. Napoleon Hayes and Charles Walton were nominated for alternate elector-at-large. A free silver greeting was read from the Virginian democratic state convention. Pending consideration of resolutions of thanks to the dem- ocratic free silver press the conven- tion adjourned.

Every question ‘presents itself to the democratic party only as it is or is nota measure in the interests of the people. In this way the democracy met the tariff question and enlisted itself against the trusts and in favor of the people. So it is with the ques- tion of the free coinage of silver. The democrats as individuals could not agree as to whether free silver was or was not in the interests of the people. At the Chicago conven-! tion, however, the national dem- ocracy will proceed to ballot on the} question. When the national dem- Ocracy has announced its decision as | to what system of currency is best | for the people, it will be the duty of } sion. | A 16-to-1 Republican, | Thomas Wilkinson delegate-at- large to the national republican con- vention from Montana, arrived in St. Louis Tuesday afternoon, and will remain here until the conven- tion adjourns.

He is probably one of the | best-known prospectors and miners | to Mon- has since jin the west, having gone tana in 1876, where he ols the political desti- ny of his state. The state is repub- jlican bya large majority, but he says the voters will have nothing ibuta ‘16 to 1” president, even if they have to vote the prohibition | ticket, and prohibition in Montana an easterner can imagine. Mr. Wilkinson is of the opinion ithat Montana will unite with other western states in a sympathetic lage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, tion. Then if the St. Louis convention refuses to place a substantial silver plank in its platform, and make the plank one of the supports of the campaign, the delegate from Mon- tana asserts that Montana will vote to a silver, be he democrat, populist or prohibitionist. The strength which comes to us from eating nourishing food is better than stimulation, because it is new strength. The health which belongs to a strong body, well nourished by proper food (properly digested), is the only health that is lasting. The difference between Shaker Digestive Cordial and other medi- cines is simply that it helps nature to make strength. It does not pro- fess to cure sickness, except as that sickness is a result of weakness caused by food not properly digest- ed Shaker Digestive Cordial will re- lieve the pangs of indigestion, and make thin, sick, weak people as well out of order. It is a gentle aid to the digestion of nature's strength maker, food. At druggists. Trial bottle, 10c. There Will Be No Split. Chicago, II]., June 3.— William M. Harrity, chairman of the Democratic national committee,is here attending the meeting of the sub-committee looking after arzangements for the convention. Discussing the financial situation in the coming national con- vention Mr. Harrity said: “I believe a fairly amicable adjustment of the issue will be reached. It is possible the free silver element will havea majority sufficiently large to control the convention. No,I do not look fora split. In fact, I am satisfied there will be none. Democrats as a general thing recognize the right ef the msjority to rule, and they are willing to accept the result.
