The mississippi Democratic State Com

The Mississippi democratic state conven-
ton at jackson took strong ground against
the SUBJ treasury scheme. The convention
was called especially to nominate railroad
commissioners. but it soon became apparent
that it would deal largely in other matters
The ant-sub-treasury element had the con-
vcntion by at least four to one. The sub
treasuryitcs made strong and determined
fight against amy platform being adopted.
realizing from the tenor of the convention
that it would contain a plank against the
sub-treasury scheme. The Sub-trcaSuryiteS
argued against the adoption of such Il
plank. saying it would only have the effect
of driving large numbers of alliance men
from the democratic party, and would be
an extremely suicidal policy. The anti
sub-trcasilryites were successful by Il large
majority AID the committee on platform
was appointed, and the convention adopted
/: platform dcnouncng class legislation.

coined on the same terms would circulate

Much Interest in tho Trcmicr's Women
Suffrage Avowal.

Nothing has recently excited inner con-
sentative circles in England so much as
Lord Salisbury's declaration that female
suffrage is to form a part of the coming
electoral reforms. The council of the con-
scrvative association at an informal meet
ing decided to intimate to Lord Salisbury
that the party was so divided on the ques-
ton that it would be unwiSc to recognize it
as a conservative principle. In spite of
Salisbury's alluSion that the life of parlia
mcnt will not expire until August. 1898. the
electoral agents are preparing for dissolu-
ton III the spring. Apart from the Irish
local government bin the conservative plat
form will include Il reform bill amending
the distribution of seats by reducing the
Welsh and Irish Representations. slightly in
crcasing the Scotch and giving large adj
vantagcs to the English representation.
The ministers have indorsed the leading

committing the party to the further devel-
opnents on the lines of state socialism.

A wind storm of terrific violence swept
over Superior, Wis, causing death and de-

heavily charged with electricity. The
storm only lasted a short time, but in shat

storm an alarm of fire was turned in. and
the fire department responded to find Il

THE GEAssHoprER SCARE.
Question whether They Arc the Rocky
Mountain LOGuStS.

Mountain LOcuStS.
The Rocky mountain locust is coming
eastward. and the department of agricul-
turc is alarmed lest Il repetition of the
plaques of - and rs may again devastate
the northwest j. Dexter Pierce, of Lari-
more, n. d.. has sent samples of the grass
hoppcrs. which now cover a strip of fifteen
miles in width along the British border, and
are found to be the genuine Rocky noun
tain locust. This insect breeds under favor
able climatic influences in Montana and
Wyoming. and when great numbers of them
cover the land they are compelled to mi-
CRATE. In their eastward march they sweep
the crops as with u sickle keen. and devour
more than would support an army in Il long
campaign. Professor Bremen, of Nebraska.
and Professor Osborne. of Iowa, will be sent
by orders of the secretary of agriculture to
proceed at once to the scene and report
accurately concerning the possibility of Il
plague. so that the department may take
prompt steps to meet the emergency. Per-
sons arriving from eastern Colorado
bring information that the grasshoppers
there are not the rcd-legged variety which
devastated Kansas in 1874 and they are not
destructive.
