Educated housekeepers, who have

Dr Frees Cream Baking Powder
agrees better with the stomach than
any other made. The best test of it's
purity is of its being used to-day, as

a"o the best test as to its nicely and
strength is the test of the oven.

The Idaho Democrat Nine About to
Change Hands.

There is some likelihood of the
Idaho Democrat Mine, above Smiths
Springs, changing hands soon. The
sum of $1,000 has already been pad
as an earnest of intention. and an adj
ditional payment is due soon, which is
expected to be made. If it is, the
new owners will take possession at
once, put on strong working force
and begin shipping ore.

For couple of weeks past little q,
nc no bullion has been shipped from
Vienna. This is due to the influx Of
water in the Vienna mine, which, with,
the Mountain King, is the only mine
up there in shape to yield ore in large
quantities at present. The Vienna ore
works freely, but the King ore is ex.
ceed'ngly base, and quite low grade.

furnace cannot keep the stamps sup.
Piled with roasted ore, over half of the

In a few weeks, however, the water
Will have disappeared from tlie Vienna

full capacity.

about $50 men will find employment

ABOUT $e5O,OOO.
That Is the Yield Of the Vienna and
Mountain King the Past year.

MOuhtaln ming the PaSt year.
The Vienna mill has now been
working for nearly year, and to-day
two bars of its bullion were received
at the express Office here. These bars
were numbered l49 and $50, respect
lively. AS they are worth $500 on
an average, this indicates a yield of
about s25O,00O for the year.
As the mill was entirely new and the
ore rather difficult to work, this is very
good record, but one that will doubt
less be surpassed this year, now that
the nature of the ore is better under
stood.

Whereas They are in every way the equals of

After being amended the resolution was re-

senator from Decatur and Shelby counties, but

When the crowd came together at Hoosier Hail.
at las p. NJ Colonel Scobey called the meet
ing to order and Isom Wray, of Shelby
was made chairman. He said he hoped
that by indiscretion in their conduct they
would not do as q congressional convention at
Shelbyville once did, by nominating the wrong
man, whereby the district was lost, causing the
loss Of the State and nation as well This was
in accordance with the usual arrogance of
Shelby county Democracy. H G. Miller, of this
county, who wanted to be a candidate
himself moved to adjourn for three weeks as
harmony was lacking" He did not get sec
ond. DR.. Howard was placed before the con
vention as a candidate Judge Hord said In
behalf of nlnety-nine out of every one hundred
Democrats of Shelby county, nominate Jas,
Caison." Then the real fight began.
Bellamy Sutton held proxy from man in one
of the out townships of Shelby county. Carsons
friends tried to prevent his acting, but were not
supported the vote being fourteen to twelve in
favor of Sutton. Many bitter epithets
passed between the factions, and it seemed
for a while that an open rebellion
would be the result Sutton said, ''Ill have JUS
tice here or in the future" A motion to vote by
ballot was opposed by Judge Hord, who
said, "Any man who is ashamed
ought not to vote" The townships
being called the vote showed Decatur
solid for Howard, with three votes from Shelby,
resulting in fifteen for him to twelve for Carson.
When Sutton was called to vote, he said: ''As
Shelby did not want my vote, vote for Howard
with pleasure"
The nominee was instructed to vote
for Hon. D. w. Voorhees, for
United States Senator. The mutterings
of the Shelby men, mingled with deep curses of
revenge, are flowing freely, making it probable
that the Republicans, by nominating good
Shelby county man, can elect him, even though
the district is Democratic.

A Rabid Declaration in Favor of Free Trade
The Resolutions Adopted by the New
York Business Mems Meeting
THE FIFTH DISTRICT.


Hon. O. 6. Matson RenOminated ON the
Twenty-Fifth Ballot.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
BLOOMINGTON Ind, May 21.-The Democrat
ic convention of the Fifth congressional district,
to nominate candidate for Congress, was a re-
markable affair, and if the sentiment of that
body is the sentiment of the Democracy of the
Union. every furnace, mandatory and WOODEN
mill had just as well close doors if that party
comes into power. No such remarkable express
sion in favor of free trade has ever been heard
before.
The convention was held in the courthouse,
all the counties being represented. Several hun
Ared spectators were present All last night,
and up to the hour Of converting tremendous
effort had been made by friends of George W.
Cooper to combine with either Henderson. of
Morgan, or Williams, of Owen. to defeat Mat
son, but by the time the convention convened it
was evident that Matsons nomination was as
sured, unless some unexpected break occurred.
At quarter after O'clock W. FL. Bar
nett, chairman of the congressional committee,
called the convention to order. R. w. Miers, of
Bloomington, was nominated for permanent
chairman and F. G. Williams, of Johnson coun-
Fy, for secretary. Both were elected unani-
Enously.
A motion was made by Judge Robinson to
proceed to nominations. Bartholomew county
was called, and in neat speech DR.. Miles pre-
sented the name of Hon. g. W. Cooper.
Brown county was called and w. M. Browning
seconded Cooper's nomination in speech in which
he denounced the methods by which Matson had
wHade this canvass, insisting that Brown, with
her 900 Democratic votes, had right to name
a candidate once in century: the county was
always wanted to save some mans bacon, and
they demanded Mr. Cooper.
Hendricks county presented the name of c. G.
Matson, which was seconded by Putnam, without
remark.
Morgan county presented Eb Henderson; Owen
nominated Williams.
Ballotng then began, the first resulting in no
choice, the votes of the counties being divided
between Matson, Cooper, Henderson and Will
Jams. A second ballot was ordered, but there
was no material change. Then, without inter
mission, twenty three more ballots were taken,
when Owen county asked five minutes to con
suit While the delegates were out Mr.. Hen
derson stepped over to Matsou for a word.
When the convention was called to order again
Owen county announced no change Henderson
ended the farce by Withdrawing in favor of Mat
son, giving that gentleman nineteen votes. The
following was the result of the twenty-ffth and
last ballot

Bishop to Africa.
PHILADELPHIA, May 21-At the Methodist
conference, this morning, Rev. G. W. Smith
was announced as having been elected editor of
the Pittsburg Christian Advocate.
The question of sending a missionary bishop
to Africa was taken up, and, after discussion, it
was agreed to send bishop to Africa. and nom
nations for the place were declared in order.
The greatest confusion prevailed The secretary
announced that the following names had been
proposed to be voted for Rev. Joshua
E. Wilson, of South Carolina; Rev.
L. NJ. Vernon and Rev. @. o. Fisher,
of Savannah: Rev. E. w. Peck, of Washing
ton; Rev. VIM. Taylor, of Indiana; Rev. Mar
shall w. Taylor, of Lexington.
The latter withdrew his name; Mr.. Peck also
withdrew, and the conference adjourned till af
ternoon
In the afternoon session, in committee on the
state of the church, the question of the future
policy of the church toward social prejudice in
the South, which, in some cases, excludes colored
people from church membership and school at
tendance with whites, was discussed. The
subcommittee presented two reports. The ma
jority report declares that no person should be
excluded from worship in any church or from at
tendance upon any school, on account of race,
color or previous condition of servitude, The
minority report declares that color is no bar to
any right or privilege of membership or Office IN
the church, and urges the recognized propriety
of such administration as will secure the
largest concession to personal preiudices
involving merely social relations, and concluded
that therefore there is no need for action upon
this subject.
After long discussion. the previous question
was ordered. A standing vote showed tie
upon the adoption of the minority report-25 to
25 Governor Pattison who presided, there
upon cast his vote, amid applause, against the
minority report. By the same vote the majority
report was adopted.
The conference elected to the African bish-
oprc Rev. VIM Taylor
DR.. B. F. Crazy was elected editor of the Cali
fornia Christian Advocate.
Mr.. Taylor, the new African bishop. or, as he
is more popularity known in the church, Father
Taylor, is one of the conspicuous members Of
American Methodsm. He is in his sixty
fourth year He was born in Rockbridge
county, Va, in May 1921 He united himself

America, and during the last twelve years has
founded self-supporting missions in Burmah,
