SENATOR STEWART has been looking up
the records on the silver question and has al
most come to the conclusion that silver never
was demonetized by Congress. At any rate
he says he can find no record OF any such
proceedings, and Senator Teller, of Colora-
do, also says there is something mysteriously
strange about the record. If it is no. fact
that silver never was denopetized it is GER
tain that some very crooked work was done
somewhere in 1873. From the fact that Sher-
man was the one who engineered the demon
citation measure, we are inclined to believe
that Senator Stewart must have overlooked
something, for Sherman doubtless had the
matter fixed so there could be no going be-
hind it. Whatever was done, it was the
greatest swindle Of the age

Resoired, That this committee reafirms the
State and National Republican platform of 1888
including the declaration that 1.-The Republican
party is in favor of the use of both gold and
silver as money" and that it condemns all eff
forts to demonetize silver"
Resotped, That the persistent neglect of Sec
rotary Window to increase the coinage of silver
to the maximum of four million dollars per
month, coupled with his attempt to influence
Congressional legislation so to perpetuate
silver decentralization is a shameless violation
of the silver plank of the National Republican
platform, an attack upon the rights and inter
ests of the miners, farmers and workers of the
land. and an act of party perfdy that should
call for his retirement from the councils OF an
administration which is pledged to help and
not to hinder the reconciliation of silver.
Resotoed. That the Republican party of this
State Is in favor OF free and unlimited coinage
of both gold and silver; that it holds to this
principle as tenet of party faith and test Of
party allegiance; that II will permit OF no aban
donment or modification OF this doctrines that
ciple of bimetalsm 1t will remain steadfast

The canvass yesterday met with no inter-

were covered without difficulty. Many
small errors were discovered and easily cor
rected, but they do not mean any particular
change in the figures already given, because

CANVASS OF THE VOTE.
No Material Change = Ferral's
Reported Gain Not True.

The figures thus far given of the official
canvass are, as a general thing, very mis-
leading. While many small errors are dis
covered as the work progresses, it should
not be taken for granted that they will
make any material result in the estimate
given from the semi-G official bulletins.
Reports have from day TO day been pub
liSbed of such unusual gains as 60, TO- so,
and even 100 votes in single precinct,
W hen, in fact, there have not been any such
gains or losses at all, or, indeed, any ma
terial change in the semi-off1cial returns.
To understand how these curious figures
have come to the surface it is necessary to
understand the intricacies of the Story sys-
tenn of counting, and without that knowl-
edge it is impossible to explain intelligibly.
Suffice it to say that between the official and
semi official count there has not been vari-
ance to exceed or 10 votes on any candidate
thus far.
Yesterday there was quite little sensa-
ton up and down the streets, caused by the
publication that Robert Ferral had gained
something like $50 or 800 votes thus far In
the canvass, and was sure to defeat Cutting
after all. Those figures were wholly de-
ceptive and have no significance whatever
in determining the result.
To find out just what the relation Is be-
tween the official and semi-offcial count
Registrar Smiley went to the trouble yester-
day to foot up the semi-ofcial bulletins and
a comparison with the official figures showed
difference of just two votes in favor of
Cutting.
The fact is, the first three or four districts
counted were heavily Democratic, and the
friends of Ferral, who are following the
count closely, made the confident assertion
at the close Of the days work on Wednesday
that Ferral had gained upward of 200 votes,
meaning. of course, that as Jar as the count
had progressed lie was that many in the lead
OF Cutting.
When the other districts, heavily Repub-
lican, are counted, however, it will be
ported, several hundred in the lead. The
official figures in the three first districts
counted for Cutting ana Ferral are as fol-
lows:
Gu ting (R.). FerraI (D.).
Twenty-nnth District. 1903 743
Thirtieth District. ......... l,U4S 1,226
