THERE are about 5000 delegates
attending the State Democratic Club
convention, which convened yester-
day at Springfield, Ill, for the two
fold purpose of endorsing the national
and state tickets, and perfecting a
thorough club organization for the
campaign. Nearly every prominent
democrat of the state is present to en-
courage the movement, and to give
the benefit of their political expert
rience to the assembled associations.
Immediately after the delegates came
together John M. Palmer, candidate
for governor, who was warmly greeted,
made an address in which he spoke of
the national ticket and the platform
adopted at st. Louis in glowing terms.
Before the convention adjourned,
Senator Bell and other state candi-
dates, most of whom are in the city,
will make the acquaintance of the
delegates. 1t is regular democratic
love feast, kind of political last sup
per. Palmer may crate but Fife will

DE Lesseps Promises that His Canal Will Be

DE LeSseps Promises that His Canal VIII BE
Open for Traffic in 1890.
PARIS March I'M. De Lesseps, in his re-
port to the extra meeting OF the Panama Canal
Company. to-day, stated that the 1l-will of OPP
ponents of the canal, which resulted in COM
pelling the company to borrow money at a
higher rate of interest than was expected. is the
only cause of the increased cost and of the in
timidation of certain of the company's con-
tractors. Referring to the number OF cubic
metres excavated in 1887, the report states that
owing to the prevalence of the rainy season and
the difficulty in procuring workmen, NJ. De
Lesseps can hardly insure the completion of the
canal in 1889 The directors have been induced
to agree to the construction of locks, by means
of which vessels of the largest tonnage may
traverse the canal in 1890, before the work is
absolutely completed. The financial statements
show that 10000. 900 francs were in hand Jan.
l, 1888 Pending the decision of the govern
ment regarding the lottery loan, it has been de-
cided to proceed with third issue OF bonds of
1000 francs EACH to the value of 100000, 900
francs, the repayment of which will be pro-
vided for by the creation of a guarantee fund
invested in rentes. In conclusion, III. De

sheep-Raising Decreasing,

Nashlngton Special.
Apropos of the threat of the Democrats OF the
House to repeal the duty on WOOL il is interest
ing to learn from report just issued by ]. r.
Dodge. statistician Of the Department of Agri-
culture, that there has been still further de-
cline in the number of sheep in this country
during the past year of 1,2l4,55 or between
and per cent. leaving the number at the be-
ginning of the year only 43, 544 755. The uni
versal complaint from all parts of the country is
that the price of wool is so low that there
is no profit in sheep-raising. There is every
reason to believe that a repeal of the duty on
wool would utterly destroy the sheep growing
interest in this country, in which there is
invested $50, 279, 926.
AS the sheep of the United States comprise
about 10 per cent. OF all there are in the world
their destruction would inevitably cause large
advance in the price of WOOL instead of a reduc-
ton, as the Democrats expect
