been the recipients Of much attention.
/ This morning they surrendered themselves
to . citizens committee and were driven
/ over the city in carriages. Tneir seats in
the convention sre well mp and little TO
the right Of the platform, Immediately in
I front and behind them are Nevada and
| Virgins, while Nebraska and New York
are on theleft.
Col. r. s. Blair, Of Ritchie county, has
been indisposed for a day or two, but is
now entirely recovered.
The Committee on Resolutions met this
evening and the
FIRST sKIRNIsH OF THE GREAT TARIFF
BATTLE
took place. IL was q close contest. Cor
man and Watterson have each had an eye
on the ehairmanship of the committee,
aud their partissns have warmly urged
their claims They were put in nomipa-
tion to-day, and the Kentucky editor tri-
umphed by the close vote OF 90 to 20, six
States and Territories not voting. The
States of West Virginia, Virginia.and Ohio
tee of eleven was appointed on
platform and began their Iabors
at 7:30 this evening. The result will be
reported to the full committee tomorrow
at 9 q. m, and it is hoped that they will
be ready to report to the convention before
noon. The following States are represent
ed on the subcommittee: Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Indiana, Ken
tucky, Michigan, Oregon, Maryland, Mis-
sissippi, Louisiana aud Colorado. The
personnel is the result Of q compromise be-
tween the extreme and moderate tariff re-
form men, and its action will probably be
adopted without debate.
The Committee on Organization met
this evening. L. B. Csssidsy, of Penn
sylyania, was made chairman. Hon. Pat
Collins was unanimously chosen perma-
nent chairman of the convention. II. III.
IugersOll was made the committees choice
for permanent secretary.
The rules of the last National Demo
cratic Convention were adopted with the
addition that during q roll call no State,
having once voted will be allowed to
change its vote until all the others have
been counted. The committee hold an
other meeting tomorrow morning
PROBABLY TWO REPORTS.
LATER.-NOthing can be learned of the
deliberations of the Committee on Plat
form. Two tariff planks will be presented,
one by German and one by Wstterson. 1t
is altogether probable that the sub.com-
mittee will fail to agree, and both ma
iority and minority report will be
offered. In open committee the. Cor
man forces count on being able to secure a
reafirmation of the platform of 1884. If
they do not succeed there the tight will be
carried into the Convention, where they
confidently claim that they will gain the
day. The wattersOn contingent, who
want a more advanced utterance, are
equally as determined. There is every
probability at this writing that the COM
mittee will fail to agree and the tariff bat
tie will be fought out in open convention.

citement and because Of the eTigenCles o.
war. The Republican party, while not
denying the necessity Of reform, has eve
failed to suggest any remedy and has uni
yersally thwarted the efforts OF the Democ
racy to afford the needed relief. The pres
est administration has realized the prom
ises made by the Democratic Convention o.
1894. IL has sought to reduce taxation
and tighten the burdens Of the people and
to reduce the revenue 50 as to prevent un
due accumulation in the Treasury, and hal
at the same time taken the requisite step
to foster and protect domestic industries
IL has discouraged the centralization o
wealth and has enabled, so far as circum
stances would permit, those in the less f.
vored walks Of life to enjoy the benefits o
their exertions. In other words, the Dem
ocratic administration has set its utmos
endeayors to carry ont the platform OF

We learn that Mir. Farmer did not appreciate some of our remarks in our last. He has undoubtedly misuuder- stood the purpose of our letter We did not mean that his hat was not neat or his collar untidy. His costume, on the contrary, was fully mp to the times. Neither did we infer that he did not enjoy himself There was not q gentleman present who derived more pleasure from the hop than he. lt is said he danced forty five changes, and always had a pretty girl for partner. The young people say that q social gathering is not a success unless Mir. Farmer and Mir. Alfred Ashworth are present Their gcnteelness and c0ur- te0usGess are appreciated by all.
 Our planters are an husily engaged in preparing their fields for blowing. and some have already commenced blowing. The extreme low water and the hndling of thc trees seems to have instilled new life and energy into our farmers They do not expect an over flow this spring and they are happy.
