An ounce or two of this solution speedily re-

Address 20 the Democrats OF kalama.
ZOO County.
From the Kalamazoo Gazette.

From the Kalamazoo Gazette.
The undersigned, delegates from
this county TO the Democratic State
convention, held at Lansing. Feb. %,
1879, take this unusual way to report
to you their action of the State conven-
ton was unusual, unexpected and con-
trary to democratic principles.
Your county convention, held Febru-
airy 22d, unanimously instructed us
(while adhering TO Democratic princi-
pies, as declared by the national Dem
ocratic convention of 1879 to favor
non-partizan nominations for the su-
preme bench and board OF regents.
In accordance with these instruc-
tions, we rendered non-partizan nomi-
nations on a platform relating exclu-
siyely to State affairs.
But the majority OF our convention,
proposed aud accomplished an alliance
with the Greenback or National con-
vention simultaneously in session at
Lansingl, by which the Democratic
doctrines relating 10 finance were Who'll
ly sacrificed. The platform, as adopt
ed, was dictated by the Nationals as
the only basis on which they would
uRItt W u lhtoo
iating terms were accepted by a major
ity of our convention aud ticket NOM
mated consisting of Greenbackers ex-
clusively-no representative OF the
"honest money Democracy" being
placed thereon.
Such ticket is now presented TO
you as a Democratic ticket, standing,
too, upon q platform declaring in ef-
feet, for "fat money" unlimited in
amount and irredeemable in coin
the convention refusing to listen 10 a
report OF its own committee on resolu-
tions and refusing, by q majority OF "a,
TO declare "that all paper money should
be convertible into coin at the will of
the holder" See 4th, 5th and 9th
resolutions as the report OF the pro-
ceedings Of the convention. This ma
jority, too, consisted OF proxy votes
from the upper peninsula held or con-
trolled mainly by one who worked and
voted against the Democratic party
last fall.
The undersigned, in obedience to
the instructions OF your county con-
vention and their own honest convic-
tions, refused TO approve, either di-
rectly or indirectly, such n total sur
render of Democratic principles and
left the convention before the ticket
was adopted, refusing to participate in
its proceedings. BY this withdraw
al of your delegates you are left free
to act at the polls as you please in re-
gard to this ticket. You are not bound
by any conventional honor to violate
your political conventions unless you
see fit so to do.
We here remit this whole question TO
your consideration and action, believ-
ing that you will do as you think best
about it, as will Yours truly,

Calling Treason by Its Right Name.

Evening News Special.
WAsHISGroS, March 3. The senate,
at sunrise this morning, was the scene
Of the most notable occurrences Of late
years. The Mexican veteran clause
under which JEFF Davis would receive n
pension, had been debated since mid
night. The Democrats had taken a
position in defense and laudation Of
the leader of the rebellion, while the
Republicans we're disposed TO deal IN
euphonism, and the rebellion had been
alluded to by botA sides with a great
deal OF tenderness. VIM. Il. Chandler,
who had been witnessing the scene
from the reporters gallery, sent down
a card 10 Senator Rollins OF New Hamp-
shire, saying that il appeared as though
no senator dared TO call treason by It's
right name. Rollins passed the card
over 10 Zach Chandler, who sent back
word 10 the Hampshire statesman. re-
questing him 10 possess his soul IN pa
tience and he would see. At four
o'clock Chandler secured the floor and
said he desired 10 indulge in some per-
sonal "reminiscences. Many years ago
JEFF Davis and he stood together be-
fore the desk and took the oath. Davis
with lie upon his lips aud perjury in
his heart, had from that hour deliber-
ately plotted treason. He Zach
Chandler) now stood amazed 10 hear
JEFF Davis, yet living and unrepentant.
eulogized in this chamber. Senator
Chandler then, with great dignity Of
manner, made a powerful speech Of an
hours duration, which had the effect
Of completely shutting mp the demo-
Gratis. when the entire clause was strick.
en- out and the senate adjourned.

Can do a. They Please.

Concluding passage'of the public ad-
dress Of the Jackson county Democrat
ic delegation.
During the proceedings about 30
votes Of those counted with the minor
ity were east by proxies, who in some
instances are known to have grossly
misrepresented the constituencies for
which they assumed 10 act. In view
OF what we deemed an ignominious
surrender OF the Democratic 10 the Ma
tional organization, and OF the pernic-
ious doctrines which had been in
dorsed by the convention, we deem
ell il our duty TO intrust one OF
our number 10 rise TO a question of
privilege and 10 TO say that in view Of
the declaration by the convention Of
doctrines which neither we nor our
constituents considered Democratic
and Of the influences to which that
body had been subjected, We felt un-
willing longer to assume to represent
You in the further delIberatIon Of the
convention, or to seem TO blind you by
participating in the nominations which
remained to be made; We therefore
withdrew from the convention in q
body, and our example was followed
by the delegation from Monroe county
and by q considerable number OF sim
gle delegations and parts OF delega-
tions. Under the circumstances, we
consider the Democracy of Jackson
county at liberty TO take such a course
as to them shall seem proper in refer
ence TO the candidates placed in nom
ination after our withdrawal from the
convention.

SWEET FRoM WEST TO EAST

bWEII NEbI EA5Is
SAN FRAsoIsco, Cal, March "A
Reno (Nev.) dispatch says: At about
5:45 this morning the alarm OF fire was
sounded in Reno. The fire commenced
in some wooden buildings at the west
end of the business streets, back of the
Masonic Block. A fearful gale was
blowing from the west at the time, and
before water could be got on il the fire
was beyond control.
THE FLAMES LEAPED FROM HOUSE TO
HOUSE
and from block TO block with lightning
rapidity. The panic-stricken, half
clothed people caught handful OF the
most valuable articles and left all else
TO the demon of destruction. The fire.
men were helpless. The ferceness of
the wind aud the intensity Of the heat
rendered it impossible to get close
enough to do any good. In three
hours
ALL OF THE BUSINESS PART OF THE TOWN
WAS IN ASHES,
the only houses escaping being the
Masonic Building, with Hagerman K
Schooling's grocery store, or Its first
floor, and John Larcomb's place.
Everything else is gone. Buildings
that stood other fires without damage
melted before this one.
THE LOSS,
as near as can be calculated at this
time, is about $1,000, 900. with only
about $3.50, 900 insurance.
FlvE LIVES
are known to be lost, as far as heard
from: Mrs. John Beck, John Riley,
and three tramps, A number received
injuries. but at this writing it is impos-
sible to get correct information.
THE GALE BLOWING
was the fiercest known for many day,
and it carried blazing pieces OF timber
for miles. Several farm houses, sit
uated two miles down the meadows,
were burned by this means.
After working until exhausted, the
whites forced the Chinese TO work on
the engines. Already several are hav-
ing lumber hauled upon their still
smoking ground. Homes are in great
demand
CITIZENS ARE THowISG OPEN THEIR
DOORS
TO the homeless ones, and are doing all
they can to relieve the distressed.
The buildings on Plaza street, in
cluding the Academy of Music, are
burned, and the fire only stopped when
all was destroyed. Even the residences
Of w. III. Getchell and w. II. Tread
way and others were not far enough
away to be saved.
