VerY Good PIntform.

Fort WAYNE, Ind, June 29.-The fol.
lowing is a summary of the state platform: /:
1t endorses the Minneapolis platform; eu-
logizes Harrison's administration; COM
mends the ticket; denounces the demo-
cratic party Of the state for the gerryman-
der Of congressional and legislative
districts, for running the state into debt,
unnecessarily increasing taxation and for
partisan cruel, incompetent management
of the finances of the state; against the
repeal of 100 per cent. of state bank issues,
which, if carried out, would remove the
only barrier against wildcat money" fa-
vors law compelling the use of safety car
couplers on all railroads; endorses all PEN
sion legislation of congress; recommends
the establishment of a state soldiers home
in connection with the state department of
the G. A. r., where all ex-soldiers, their
wives or widows can be cared for to the end
that the veterans wives be not separated
from them in their declining years. The
platform also pays tribute to the late AL
vim P. Hoyey and extends sympathy TO
Blaine and family in their recent bereave-
uppt

Legislation I'm the Senate.

WAsHINeToN, June 29-The legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation bill
was taken up in the senate, the question
being on the amendment as to the Utah
commission. The amendment was agreed
to, yeas 2S, nays "a, so the house provision
abolishing the Utah commission was struck
out Of the bill and the two items of ap-
preparation of $33 800 for salaries of the
i've commissioners and expenses of the
commission inserted. Jones, of Arkansas,
was the only democratic senator who voted
in the affirmative. The republican sena-
tors who voted in the negative were Carey,
FELTON, and Warren. Carey moved to re-
duce the salaries of the commissioners
| from $1,000 to $1,000, and spoke in support
of the amendment and in favor of applying
to the survey of public lands $4,000 to be
thus saved. The amendment was also
favored by FELTON, and Sherman, and
agreed to. The salaries of the commits
sioners are therefore fixed at 81, 900 EACH

A NECKTIE PARTY.
A Hanging Billed for Friday, at
Tacoma.

A Hanging Billed for Friday, at
Tacoma.
Among the many invitations to fetes,
socials, and parties of different kinds that
the urbane Sheriff Prince, of Thurston
county, has received during his member
bership with the 400, the following is by all
odds the most peculiar:
SHERIFF PRINCE:
and this card will admit you to the execu-
ton of
sALvAToR PIcANI,
to occur on Friday, July 1, 1892, in the
Pierce county Jail yard, at Tacoma, Wash
ington. J. H. PRICE, Sheriff.
In the upper left-hand corner of the in
vitatiOn, which is printed in gold on a card
with black background, is photograph Of
/ the doomed man. The officials had some
difficulty in obtaining good photograph
of Mr.. Picani When the attempt was
/ first made to shoot him with the kodak, he
slid gracefully under his cot, and could
scarcely be prevailed upon to emerge from
his hiding place, except by main force.
Yet even after the kind sheriff of Pierce
county has gone to the trouble and expense
of sending forth the invitations, to the
number of a couple of hundred or so, and
has all the accessories, including a neat
new gallows ready for the execution, there
are some persons who would like to see the
killing postponed, Mr.. Picani. as central
figure, is certainly entitled to some con-
sideration, and he thinks he could with
sixty days reprieYe, make a better job Of il
than he could at present.
John B. Evans, attorney for the murderer
was in Olympia yesterday and returned tc
Tacoma today. He was fixing things uI
with the supreme court so that it would be
proper for a stay of execution to be granted
As a last resort strong influence will be
brought upon Governor Ferry for re
prieve.
In case the execution should take place
according to original program, Sheriff
Prince will be in attendance, probably &C
companied by w. M. Jackins. The Sheriff
is somewhat inclined to be cold blooded
even during the cold weather, and says thai
if he has to see man hung he don't know
of better subject than Picani, as he de-
serves the fate, having killed companion
of the same nationality

A PLUCKY PREACHER.

He Had No Money But He Knew
How to walk.
An instance of faithfulness to duty in
spite of financial embarrassment is told Of
the young preacher who came to Olympia
from Cosmopolis to see about securing the
presence of Evangelist Bell and his taber-
nacle at the camp meeting to be held at
Peterson's Point next month. The
churches in a number of towns on Grays
harbor decided to have Mr.. Bell if they
could get him and the young Methodist
preacher at Cosmopolis was appointed q
committee of one to visit Olympia and ar
range the matter with Mr.. Bell. It hap
pened, however, that he had no money and
was too sensitive to say anything about it
to his friends. He decided to walk the en-
tire distance to Olympia, but fortunately
ministerial brother took him part way in
a buggy. The remaining forty miles were
counted out on the railroed ties, it being
necessary for the young minister to walk
all night Saturday to get here on time. He
accomplished the object of his visit, how
ever and soon won the hearty cooperation
and support of the Olympia brethren.
Money was quietly provided for his return
and he left for home Tuesday.

The Assessment Roll About Ready

1t will be five or six days before the city
assessment roll will be ready to be placed
in the hands of the tax collector. Assessor
Whitman is voluntarily changing some of
his valuations, and the council is eontinu-
ing its work of equalizing in all cases
where it deems it to be wise. The council
has been sitting as a board of equalization
since May 10th. Each member of such
though they do not receive any salary as
plain, unornamented councilmen. The
present board of equalization has not been
in session by several days. long a time as

that all property will have been equally
assessed, ready for the action of the coun-
Gil at its meeting tomorrow evening. 1t
will then take the clerk a few days to

EvervLtttIe HeIps.

Olympia is gradually shaking off her
country-town airs, and putting on the hab-
iliments of real city. The last reform in
augurated is that by Marshal Savidge in
the prohibiting of hitching teams around
the public square. The action IS wise and
taken none to soon. The streets and gut
ters in that vacinity have been cleaned up
until they look really respectable, and a
policeman has been detailed for duty to see
that the wishes of the chief are complied
with strictly. A large platform annex to
the west end of Sixth street, Just after it
crosses Columbia, has been Constructed,
and teams can be hitched there when they
will not interfere with the comeliness or
cleanliness of the city.

VIENNA, June 29. 9.-Germany and Austria
are acting in concert to prevent the en-
trance Of cholera. Professor Drasche, Of
the Vienna sanitary board, who has been
studying the cholera thirty years, thinks
it is improbable the disease will spread
beyond Russia, even if it gets a foothold
there. He says in other countries bad
sanitary system like that which obtains
in Russia has become thing of the past.
ST. PETERSBURG, June 29-The doctors
sent by the government arrived at Brku to
aid in combating the ravages of the
cholera. The Russian hotilla in the Cas-
plan Sea has been ordered to watch all
ships leaving Parsian ports. Quarantine
stations in the trans-Caspian territory
have been increased in number. A week
has been added to the time of quarantine.
Imports of food are subjected to a strict
examination. Everything in medical
science will be done to stamp out the
scourge. In Dzisak Turkestan, 1870 died
in four days. The epidamic prevails in o
more virulent form at Waahka, in the
trans-Caspian territory Brandy, sugar
and tea are daily distributed to troops.
Fears that the disease would invade
European, Russia, have been realized
already, and several hundred cases are re-
ported this side of the frontier The in
habitants and troops along the frontier are
panic stricken, Wealthy classes are seek
ing safety in fight. 1t is reported the
cholera has appeared at Tsaritsin, on the
VOlga. If true the scourge is almost GER
tain to ravage the famine stricken pro-
vinces. Officers have been despatched to
Tsaritsin and Tiflis with full authority to
report all measures to arrest the spread of
cholera through railway traffic. The
scourge is abating at Meshed. The official
reports say there were 374 deaths out of
512 attacked during the month of June
