Miners Attempt to Effect Their Release and
Sharp Fight Ensues.

KNOXVILLE, Aug. 16.-Excitement
throughout East Tennessee today is
high, especially in.the mining regions.
A mob of disorganized men, supposed
to be miners, attacked the stockade at
Oliver Springs this morning at 8
O'Clock. 1t was their intention to
release the convicts there but a vigil
liant watch on the prrt of the guards
kept the prisoners within the walls.
Several hundred shots were fred,
three guards were badly wounded and
one fatally hurt. Six miners were in
lured, but none of them fatally hurt.
The miners in and around Coal creek
have decided to aid in a second at
tempt to release all the convicts at
Oliver Springs and thereby secure
help enough to defeat the state stoops
and release the convicts at Coal creek,
but up to last accounts no further
trouble was reported.

Third party against the Republican,
in the states of Colorado, Idaho, llIi-
nois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Min
nesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Wiscon-
sin and Wyoming, and in addition, in
some of these states, they will use the
Silver party. For while it is true that
neither of the great platforms holds
out much comfort to the silver men,
yet the Democratic party has freer
silver record than the Republics
and in it can they place the most hope.
But in the above mentioned states,
the great northwestern Republican
stronghold of the past, fortress,
however, that has heen very much
battered and through which appear
many loop holes of Democratic hope,
in those states Democratic fusion with
the discontinued elements of the Re-
publican party means very great
deal. In Kansas and some of the
silver states there is very great hope
of victory along this line. Upon such
victory nothing can stay the glorious
ly triumphant march of Cleveland's
followers.

Delaware Democratic Convention.

DOVER, Del, Aug. 16.-The Demo
cratic state convention met this after
noon. Presidential electors for the
state nominated in county caucuses
were affirmed by the convention.
Congressman Curry was renominated.
The platform adopted pledges loyalty
to Democratic faith, expresses hearty
approval and ratification of the
natianal Democratic platform, de-
nounces the extravagances of the Re-
publican party, and the invasion of
the state government by swarms of
unnecessary officials.

conspicuous in trying to clog the
wheels OF the national legislature?

THIS YEARS POLITICAL FUSION.

THIS YEARS POLITICAL FUSION.
The great political year of 1892 is ex.
tremely interesting not only so far as
Texas is concerned, but throughout
the Union. The national political
forces are exercised as for years past
has not been the case. Four years
ago it was clean cut issue between
Cleveland and Harrison, with no ele.
ment of any Importance to mystify re-
suits. This year there is a decided
change. Another, called the Third
party, is in the field, and while 1t will
not develop sufficient strength to push
itself into power, its existence and its
combination with one or the other
great political organizations may
most seriously affect the final result.
The Democratic party is encouraging
and using this party where it will do
the most good, and the Republicans
are adopting the same tactics. The
difference, however, is that it will
be found from the conditions surround
ing the different points of operation,
that the Democrats will In this kind
of a fight gain by far the best of it.
The Republicans will fight the Demo-
Gratis with the Third party in the
states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia,
North Carolina, South Carolina and
Tennessee. They even think of try
ing the same game in Texas, where
they are most welcome to enter and
contend. But the trouble they will
find in all these states will be to make
the voters forget the overshadowing
force bill, whose hideous proportions
loom up so CHASTITY and grim in the
Republican platform. Southern DEM
ocrats realize too keenly that Re-
publican vote means vote for that
bill and Third party vote means
weakening the Democratic party only
to strengthen Republican chances. In
fighting Democracy in the South with
the Third party the Republicans are
not using very deadly weapon.
But lit is different with the Democrats
in their, fight. They will use the

CONSISTENT AND INCONSISTENT.

CONSISTENT AND INCONSISTENT.
The address of President Jones be-
fore the Alliance yesterday contained
some good Democracy-for instance,
his declaration of the grinding effect
of monopoly on the masses, calling for
a remedy. But he drifted far away
from the principles of true Democ-
racy when he advocated gov
eminent ownership of railways.
He breaches good Democratic
doctrine in one sentence, and In the
next advocates system of centraliza-
ton that would do more than all the
forces yet brought to bear in this gov
ernment to concentrate power, and
virtually and eventually overthrow
the liberties of the people. Again the
point of justice must not be ignored.
AS remarked by Mr.. Mills in recent
speech up the country, the purchase
of the railroads by the government
issuing fiat money, as proposed, would
amount to confscation, which we have
no more right to inflict upon the rail-
roads than upon individuals.

REDEEMED IN GOLD.
A Million Dollars in Treasury Notes Re-
deemed in Gold for Shipment.


deemed in Gold for Shipment.
NEW YORK, Aug. .15.-A crucial test
OF the policy of the government was
made yesterday when Heidelbach,
Yeckelheimer q Co., rendered 81 ,OOO,-
900 in treasury notes issued on account
of silver purchases and demanded for
them 100000 in gold at par to be
shipped to Germany tomorrow. The
trearury officials paid the 81 900, 900 in
exchange for the treasury notes and
the load was carted away and put on
the steamer. The transaction caused
some comment, as no home institu-
ton in the history of the
country ever made such a demand
and the impression in many places is
that the firm took the step more to
see if they could get it and force q,
crisis. Ex-Treasurer Roberts was at
the suh-treasury when the gold was
being carted away, and admitted that
it was the first time such a demand
was made, although heretofore gold
was given for old gold and also for
treasury notes. He said: "No steps
have been taken by the administra-
ton to prevent or obstruct the export
of gold. The government stands
ready to meet all it's obligations in
gold and will pay them. The free
gold balance is now $4,000, 0OO.n By
this statement it is clear that the gov.
eminent is already decided on a plan
to pay all silver treasury notes in gold
if demanded.
