Following is the silver plank of the
platform
I. The Democratic party of the State
of New York in convention assembled
renews pledges of its fidelity to Demo
cratic faith and as regards national issues
reaffirm the doctrines of the national
platform of 1884 and 1886, endorsed by
the popular vote in those years and So
overwhelmingly ratified by the popular
verdict in congressional election OF 1890.
We now. as then, steadfastly adhere tc
the principles of sound ipanCe, VIC are
against the coinage of any dollar which
is not of intrinsic value of every other
dollar of the United States, we therefore
denounce the new Sherman silver law
under which one tenth of our gold stock
mas been exported and all our silver out
put is damned M at home as a false pre-.
tense, but artful hindrance of a return to
free bi-metallic coinage and MS tending
csYuS. - -rfo1M one KIM6

fore unite with friends of honest money
everywhere in stigmatiZing the Sherman
progressive silver basis laws as no solu.

country swindle, Mckinley, worse than

the people, great uprising last Novem
ber-a verdict which renewed next year
will empower Democratic statesmen to
guide the peoples councils and to exc
cute the peoples will.
There is no other declaration in the
platform upon national politics. The
greater portion of the document which
embraces about 1000 words. is devoted
to setting forth the unhappy condition of
the State growing out of the circum-
-staRsss tRatv the RfgtAiffGi fggttAiffGe That cannot be
accomplished in spite of it being Dem

for a proper exhibit from the State at
the Chicago exposition ;nd also Of sym
pathy with opprsssed Russian Jews The
concluding paragraph is as follows
We heartily endorse the able and
statesmanlikc administration rl Governor
d. B. Hill. during his seven years as
chief executive of the state lie has res
olutely maintained the principles of the
Democratic party and has faithfully con-
tended for the interests oi the people.
He has ably resisted the apgressions of
successive Republican legislatures whose
object has been only partisan advant-
age, and he has been firm and unre-
lenting foe to vicious and corrupt legis-
lation. In his administration of State
affairs he has received The intelligent and
conscientious cooperation of his Demo
cratic associates in the State departments,
their joint efforts have put the State

the directors ''Let us see il we can
make anything of him"
10 came in at once on being sum
moned. He did not even tarry to take
off the apron which he wore in his shop,
or to brush the -four from his coat.
These adjuncts helped to heighten the
ruddy innocence of his appearance as he
entered. He faced the curious eyes of
the waiting board with disarming
guilelessness.
s.Did you want me, SIR" he asked of
the superintendent, and the slow motion
of his lips was almost foolish
But had those lips only been formed
to say "ten thousand they could not
have repeated it more pcrsistently wher
the question of barter was opened. Hu
slow moving blue eyes looked with open,
childish appeal into the assembled faces.
II do think it's worth that TO me, sir.
don't you," he asked of the most urgent
speaker, ana that gontIsmaa suddenly
collapsed.
There was one director who took no
part in the controversy. He sat in his
chair rubbing his hands together and
watching the scene from his keen, deep.
set eyes. Every now and then his spare
frame was shaken with silent laughter.
As the door closed on JOS retreati ns
figure he gave way t" spasms OF alternate
laughter and coughing.
GOA, dear. dear" he chuckled, wip.
ing his eyes, "to have that fool look on
the outside of his head and all that horse
sense on the insidei"
"Then, sir, you think him playing n
game, do you'' asked the superintend-
ent.
Playing He's played it, Hasn't
he caught us in Just the trap he started
out to-"
The old man went off in another par
oxysm of laughter.

superintendent, cor, rather, that's what
he calls himself. His real name is Tai

''It's him. As sure as my name is
Snyder B. Shines it's him." cried the old
man, rising to his feet excitedly.
"Where's he gone? Where's he gomez"
He rushed from the room, his thin
legs wavering under him, followed by
the bewildered superintendent. When
they returned, 10 Tolly, divested of the
-four and apron now, was with them.

Shines, "allow me to present my grand.

TOBACCO CURED WITHOUT FIRE
How They4asy,,i antecky--2, 800
Pounds Per Acre.

LEXINGTON, 7KY., Special. THE
weather lately has been delightful, and
farmers are busy saving their excellent
crop of tobacco. In this section the to-
bacco is cured entirely without fire. 1t
is hung up in large barns the entire sides
of which can be thrown open, so that
the air can pass quito freely through the
tobacco. The barns are. of course much
larger than they are ia the tobacco sec
tion of Virginia. The air cured tobacco
does not have the rich aroma which the
tlue-cured possesses, nor is the color as
beautiful There is also much danger
of its becoming injured by rainy spells,
after it has been hung up in the houses.
The farmers in the blue grass section
did not raise much tobacco until within
the past few years, but the land pro-
duces such heavy yield per acre that it
is grown extensively now. One farmer
living near here told me last year that
his ertirc crop averaged 2,200 pounds to
the acre, This is. a much heavier yield
than the VirSSnia farmers Nuke.

Looking to Closer Trade Relations With

ToRoNTo, Feb. 4.-The Empire, the chief
organ of the dominion government, an
nounces this morning that the governor
general has dissolved the house of commons
and issued writs for the new parliament.
The Empire says: ut is understood the
dominion government has, through her
majesty's government, made certain pro-
posals to the United States government
looking to ar extension of our m
with that country. This proposal has been
submitted to the president for his consid-
Grafton. and the Canadian gov
eminent. The opinion is thas if these
negotiations are to result in a treaty, which
must be ratified by parliament, it is evident
the government should be able to deal with
a parliament fresh from the people rather
than with a moribund house. 1t is under
stood Canada will send II delegation to
Washington on March 4, the date on which
the life OF the present congress expires, to
discuss informally the questions of an ex-
tension and development of the trade be-
tween the United States and Canada, and a
settlement of all differences between the
two countries. This delegation will visit
