 Alaska's two delegates are not ex- pected. Necessary for choice, two thirds rule, GOO Illinois will cast AS votes for Palmer, Indiana 30 votes for Governor Gray, Iowa 26 for Cover nor Boise, Kentucky 26 for Carlisle, Maryland 16 for Senator German, Mich igau 26 for Don Dickinson, and Pennsyl vanIa 64 for Governor Pattison. After these complimentary votes all of the states mentioned, except Pennsylvania, desire that their delegates support yves ern man, providing, of course, that the favorite person shows no sign ot gaining strength. But the real choice of the democracy is shown in sixteen states where the democrats say:
 "A plague On both, we are for west eIn man."
 These $50 delegates standing solid for a western man, and representing over one-third of the convention against the other two-thirds hopelessly divided will probably have great effect in shaping the conventlon's actions.
 It is significant that the west so far has presented four candidates s-BOies, Senator Palmer, Governor Gray of h. diana, and Don Dickinson. The strong est of these are Boies and Palmer, with Boies in the lead, apparently. It may be inferred from this, therefore, that while Governor Boies occupies conserv otf thio fnIIncfInn ha would prove an acceptable candidate to the advocates of the free silver policy. A favorite ticket ln the west would seem to be Bo.es of Iowa and Russell of Mas sachusetts.

 TOPEKA, Kan, March 4.-In the re- publican state convention although no definite action was take by the club on the silver question, the sentiment of the Kansas republicans became apparent when just before adjournment, D. R. Anthony, who has heretofore been a radical free silver man, announced in a short speech that he had changed hIs views upon the subject and was now op- posed to free coinage of silver.
