MAY Bee AS Pier With the prospect that the silver men will control and run the Chicago convention arises the interesting question, What will be the deliverance of the convention on the tariff question, in addition to the free silver platform? Naturally, it 1s assumed that the long-standing tariff views of the demo- eratic party will not be materially or radi- cally changed, but efforts will be made to bring about some changes. The present tariff laws do not meet the ideas of many democrats, and they want to see a change of some kind. As these changes are more a matter of detail than of principle, the convention may, {t is said, not adopt any plank looking to a revision of the tariff laws of the party, leaving the questions to Congress, if It should be democratic, to deal with. On the other hand, it is said that with a change In the financial system of the country, in the event of the demo- cratic ticket ‘triumphing in November, would have to come a change in the tariff sentiments of the silver people. A change in one necessitates, it is argued by some, a change in the other. What the West Wants. The control of the Chicago convention by the silver men and the :omination of stl- ver candidates bring the expectation that the west will support the ticket. In addi- tion to silver, will the west want tariff changes in the democratic platform, or will t be content to trust to the wisdom of the i Congress, to legislate for them Do they care enough about the tariff at this time to demand that a revision of the pres- ent laws be coupled with a declaration for silver? All these and a great many more tons are being talked of by the silver » When they constder the prob- hey will have a good working majority at Chicago. The matter was broached to several sil- ver democrats recently by a Stur reporter. One of them was Representative McMillin of Teznessee, who would be conspicuous in the next House if the democrats were to have a majority in that body. He said he did not contemplate any change in the tariff ideas of the party by the Chicago conven- He did not discuss the other phases, especially that as to what the western re- publicans will want in return for thei port of the demo ticket. ta ratic liked to was & ¥ believed, pecple, that t cause of the the ¢ Ti Money question Was para- em, and would continue to be. Few men in the west were giving any thought to the tariff, and it would hardiy be an issue in the campaign. Willing to Trust Their Friends. Other silver men taiked to said that the west would be willing to trust their silver friends from the south and other sections on the t:riff, no matter what the deliver- ance at Chicogo. They were willing to let the tariff be adjusted after a change was brought atcut in the moretary laws of the country. One prominent democrat said that the Celiverances of the Chicago con- vention on the tariff vculd be merely for- mal, as the great question of money would ceuse the other to be lost of before the compuign was over. Notwithstanding this view, there 4s autkcrity for saying that when the gold ste1dard men see they are beaten in the convention they will then try to have the money question side- tracked es much as pessible and brought to the front. They do not want democratic victory, they say, if it has to be obtaized by the sacrifice of tariff prin- ciples. They might put up with the money views of men opposed to them in their own party, but when it got to the point of ca- tering to the tariff views of the west they would rebel. Much of It Conditional. Of course, much of the speculation on these rrattcrs is conditicral—first, on the 2 convention being for silver, and, second, on there being no split at Chicago. ‘The belief is gaining ground, however, that there will be a split, and that two ets will he neminated. This would give ivergent platforms. It Is an every- when the likel gold ren leaving the Chicago convention is mentioned, to have a silver leader say: Let them leave; ve can do without them. They go further anc say they are not dependent on supposed gold states for the ele-tion of their ticket. They have no hope for New Yerk, Pennsylvania or the New England states, and aver that it mat- rs [ttle to them whether their gold frieuds get out, so far as the actual loss of electoral votes is concert: ‘Transfers of Real Estate.

Knowing there was no one to cook his lunch, he told Sosimo to bring him some bread and cheese. To his surprise, he was served with an excellent meal: An omelete, a good salad and perfect coffee. “*Who cooked this?’ asked.

I laid it away in my trinket box and was dismayed, when I first wanted to wear it, to find it gone. Sosimo had missed the stud, discovered {t in my box, and carried it, back to Louis’ room. I kept up the fight\ for some time, trying to secrete it from 8g3ima by putting it In out-of-the-way places, but’ it was in- variably found in Louis’ room, no matter where I had hidden it.

A western philanthropist who is interest- ed in establishing free traveling lHbrarles in the county where he lives found that in many places, especially “in small ham- lets” and in isolated farming communities, the postmasters were willing to take charge of and distribute the books without extra pay, and also that where there were no reading rooms the post office was the most convenient center for the RCS of such a brary, so that it would. be sure to get into the homes in the neighborhood. THE THIRD TERM That Topic Engages the Attention of Many Politicians. TAN ALOGY WITH THE GRANT EPISODE Two Explanations of That Move- ment in 1880. DEMAND FOR CLEVELAND The third term topic continues to engage the attention of a good many politicians. Is It possible for Mr. Cleveland to succeed when Gen. Grant failed? Would there be less danger in choosing a civilian than in choosing a soldier President for the third time? Is there any likeness between the |. democratic situaticn now and that of the republicans in the spring of 1880? Inter- rogatories are thick as blackberries. The 1580 Episode. The episode of 1880 has always carried two explanations. In one quarter it is characterized as having been only a selfish scheme of certain republican leaders to re- possess themselves of the patronage of the federal government. Mr. Conkling, Mr. Cameron and Gen. Logan, so It is asserted, were tred of their banishment and were moving for favor again. They had failed to score with Mr. Hayes, and their for- tunes at home were, in consequence, at a low ebb. They had ‘been strangers at the White House for three years, and they wanted to resume vielting there. If this was to be brought about, they must make sure of the party’s nominee. They decided upon Gen. Grant. They had thrived during his two terms as President, and they would thrive under a third term if they could se- cure it for him. Accordingly, they Inaug- urated the Grant movement, and carried It along 80 successfully success seemed for a time assured to them. A Different Explanation. In another quarter a very diferent expla- nation is offered. Mr. Conkling and his soclates are credited with wise and pa- tic motives, and the opinion is. still expressed that the defeat of their program entalled a worll of trouble on the party. The party's outlook was discouraging. Mr. yes had won at the last election by a atch,” and as a result the democrats were confident of being able to make a suc- cessful national campaign at this election on the judgment of the electoral commis- sion. Democratic success, as the republi- cans held, would mean bankruptcy and ruln to the country. The party then was committed to the greenback theory, as it now is to the free colnage theory. With the exception of a few eastern leaders, all of its most prominent men, Thurman ‘and Hendricks among the number, were green- backers. Mr. Hayes, and Mr. Sherman as Secretary of the Treasury, had had a hard fight against the inflation spirit of Con- ress, and the battle was by no meang won, Unless the republicans could retain pewer all might be lost. Behind the Grant Movement. This, it is claimed, was the controlling influence behind the Grant movement. Mr. Conkling saw inat the party must for its as well as for the country’s, put its best foot foremost. In his opinion, hone but its strongest man could hope to win, and that man he saw fn Gen. Grant. D udgment while serving nt Was still the pop- eople loved him, « Mr. Conkling ir ular hero, trusted him, and that he should be made the candidat New tor ridiculed the danger to the country from a third term. It seemed to him to be preposterous. The no, with his sword arm, beat down so much to save the country during civil war could be trusted, he asserted, to bear himscif at all umes as its lover and de- fender. How strong this whole argument was with the party is evidenced by the fact that it took a week's time in conven- tion for the opposition to overcome the support which Mr. Conkling had rallied to the Grant standard. The Argum nt for Cleveland. The men who are urging Mr. Cleveland for a third term represent him as being necessary at this time to lead the mov ment for sustaining the credit of the coun- try. The free coinage men, they declare, are as strong and as dangerous now as the greenbackers were in 1880. He and Mr. Carlisle have had the same fight with Con- gress that Mr. Hayes and Mr. Sherman had, and the final result depends now as it did then on making sure of the su ion in the White House. Mr. Cleveland, they hold, has practically made the issue. No other man In the party would as the candidate so well or effectively represent tt. They ridi- cule the idea of danger to the country from electing him for the third time. He is not a soldicr. He has never manifested any revolutionary instincts. The question at ue is not military in any respect. It is plain business, calling in case of his sui cess only for business support and advisors. Democratic Fear of McKinley. Democrats who argue in this way shake their heads when reminded that the repub- Heans, If successful, would uphold the cred- it of the count “With McKinley in the White House?" they inquire. They assert that Mr. McKinley is most uncertain on the money issue, with indications pointing to too much western influence. Se ee Marringe Licenwes.

From the Troy Times. A merchant in Biddeford, Me. a few days ago received a letter inclosing $1 and a sheet of paper, on which the word “‘Con- science” was written. This calls to mind an old story of a thief who broke into a store in Skowhegan several years ago, and secured @ good sum of money from the cash drawer. A few months afterward the merchant received a letter in which was a $10 bill and the following note: “I stole $78 from your morey drawer. Remorse gnaws at my conscience. When remorse gnaws again I will send you some more.” FREB TO ALL!! BAIES,, BAGONG, | PICTURES, other valuable articles ih exchange for AIL, POUCH TOBACCO. (Sold by all dealers.)

The little fellow was standing near the third base when he was hit over the left eye by the bat from the striker.

His eye- glasses were shattered, cutting the eyelid badly, but fortunately none of the glass ¢ tered the eye.

Some of the witnesses claim that he recklessly threw the bat, regardless of the fact thet a large crowd were standing around watching the game. The police are investigating the case. Edwin rested quict- ly last night. He bore the probing and ressing of his wound without a murmur, His wound was dressed by the family phy- sician, Dr. J. L. Suddarth. BANKERS.
