sent Immediately.
The department of state has not yet
communicated with Minister Douglass
on the subject of. his immediate depar-
ture for Hayti, as suggested by Admiral
Gherardi. It is believed that the request
for his presence is caused by a belief
that the relations between the present
United States representative and the
other foreign representatives have be-
come somewhat strained.

MONTANA OFFICERS SALARIES.

HELENA, Mont, July 29.-The conven-
ton met at 4 p. m. in committee of the
whole, and it took up consideration of the
bill on executive departments. The ques-
ton arose whether salaries should be fixed
in the constitution or it be made the power
of the legislature to fix officers compensa-
ton. The motion carried leaving it to the
legislature for adjustment as the occasion
demands. The salaries as offered were for
governor IS, 600, secretary auditor, attorney
general and treasurer each $4,000 yearly.
An officials salary is not to be increased
during his term of office. Richards moved
that salaries should be ample. thus giving
poor men an even chance of filling offices
without personal incumbrance. The eff
forts for reducing salaries were defeated.
The board of pardons recommended to be
established was carried by the committee.

THE GREENNACK CONVENTION.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-George o. Jones,
chairman of the national Green back COM
mittee, will tomorrow issue a circular
letter in reply to many inquiries from Pro-
hibitianists, female suffragists and repre-
sentatives of ''other sentimental and semi
political organizations" asking what
action will be taken by the coming Green
back convention on the questions there
presented.
81 desire to say, with due respect to all
who honestly advocate such doctrines,
that it is the almost unanimous opinion
among national Greenbackers that the
national Greenback convention, to be held
at Cincinnati September II, confine its de-
clarations Of principals to the questions
of restored fraternity and spirit
of true American nationali-
ty the among entire people,; OPP
position to the dangerous sectional
ism of solid north and solid south; the
payment of public debts according to Origi-
nal contracts under which they were IS
sued; to the money, land transportation
trusts, board of trade gambling on and
making prices for American farm pro-
ducts: English control over the volume of
our money; English capital manufacture
Ing or handling products of American
labor, and to such other questions as
affect the material interests and welfare of
the American people and free government.
Swapping horses while crossing swol-
len stream has always been regarded as
unwise, and fusion with any party or
faction, or undertaking to change the
name of our party, to catch outside votes,
has heretofore always proved a failure.
Therefore, regarding the great national
and the everyday bread and butter ques
tions, we advocate as of paramo unit i'm
portance to large majority of the Amer
them TO public attention unprecedented
and untrammelled by other issues,
it is especially desired that none come to
the convention expecting to present other
subjects for its consideration than those
herein indicated, and none who are not
willing to hereafter devote their best
efforts to re-establish the national Green

The Blessing Of Childhood.

Blessed be childhood, which brings
down something Of heaven into the midst
of our rough earthliness. These $4,000
represent as it were an effusion of limo
cence and freshness, struggling not only
against the death of the race, but against
human corruption and the universal gam
creme of sin. AL the good and whole
some feeling which is intertwined with
childhood and the cradle is one Of the
secrets of the providential government
of the world. Suppress this lite giving
dew and human society would be scorched
and devastated by selfish passion. Sup
posing that humanity had been composed
of thousand millions of immortal be-
ings, whose number could neither in
crease nor diminish, where should we
be and what should we be! A thousand
times more learned, no doubt, but a
thousand times more evil. There would
have been a vast accumulation of science,
but all the virtues engendered by suffer
ing and devotion-that is to say, by the
family and socioty-would have no exist
ence. And for this there would be no
compensation. Blessed be childhood for
the good that it does, and for the good
which it brings about carelessly and I'M
consciously by simply making US love it
and letting itself be loved. What little
of paradise we see still on earth is due to
its presence among us. Without father
hood, without motherhood, think that
love itself would not be enough to pre-
vent men from devouring each other
men, that is to say, such as human pas
sions have made them. The angels have
no need of birth and death as founda-
tions for their life, because their life is
heavenly.-Amiel's Journal, translated
by Mrs. Humphrey Ward.

CRONIN SUSPECTS.
The Notorious Five Brought Into Court
at Chicago.

CHICAGO, July 29-The five men under
arrest for the murder of DR.. Cronln were
brought into Judge Horizons court this
morning. Save Burke and Cooney all the
indicted men were there, but their trial
was not begun, the lawyer raising pre-
liminary motions which must be argued
and disposed of before progress can be
made. Anyway until Burke is brought
from Winnipeg the states attorney will
insist upon a continuance.
Toward Kunze the curiosity of the
crowd was directed more than
time the public had been allowed
to see him. He is of medium height
slight and about % years old. His
eyes are narrow, blue and shifting.
Judge Horton asked him if he had law
yer mo, have not" said he, speaking a
strong German accent. i don't know
what | am arrested for. The states at
torney says 1t is Tor murder mat Is all
know about it,"
The judge gave him copy Of the indct-
ment and all the defendants were then
formally arraigned. Mr.. Foster, Beggs'
attorney, objected to pleas being
required, as he desired to make a
motion to quash. He was sec
onded by A. w. Browns, Woodruff's third
attorney, and o. n. Carter who appeared
for Coughlin in the absence of Mir. Forrest.
The Judge entered motion to quash in the
case of all except OSullivan. Messrs,
Davis and Donahue, attorneys for OSul-
livan, filed petition for change of venue
from Judge Horton and Judge Halves, al
leging their client could not have a fair
and impartial trial before either of them.
The petition was supported by the afii-
davits of J. Emmett Feason and Lawrence
p. Brown, who declared it their belief
Judge Horton and Halves 'are each of
them prejudiced against Patrick O'Sul-
livan; that said defendant can not have fair
and impartial trial before either of said
judges" States Attorney Longenecker
wanted to argue the motion at once. The
time fixed by Judge Horton was 10 o'clock
tomorrow.

BISMARCK, n. D., July 29.-This has

Prohibition is making no Roadway;
woman suffrage is dead and railroad tax

and some of the farmer members of the
convention oppose it. The fur will fly
