Nominations Tonight.
Special to The Tribune.
TACOMA, Aug. 26.-The state prohibition
convention assembled IN this city yester-
day in the tabernacle. Two hundred
persons were present. Professor G.
E. Newberry, of Coupeyille, was made
chairman. w. W. Shorthill, of Ia
coma, secretary, Mrs. G. L. Haggard as
sistant secretary, and R. S. Allen press re-
porter After the appointment of various
committees, speeches and songs were in
dulged in and an evening session was held.
Among the speakers at the evening session
was DR.. Brooks, once candidate for presi-
dent on the prohibition ticket. Among
other things he said: ''The two national
conventions Of Minneapolis and Chicago
were the most disgraceful affairs ever held
in the country. At Olympia the other day
the republicans got drunk and nominated
an ex-saloon keeper for governor-and
doomed their party to inevitable defeat.
He liked the peoples party. 1t was
doing a grand thing because it
would break up the old parties and scatter
its members to the four corners Of the
earth. The peoples party was creating a
great turmoil all over the country, for it
was breaking up the republican party
The question of labor and capital is agita-
ting this country The prohibition party
stood as a wall between the rich and the
laborer, and was the only salvation of both.
For beer, whisky and other drinks the
people of this country spend 81 500, 600, 900 a
year, enough to pay the whole national
debt. The liquor traffic must be wiped out
before the country can be reformed. With
its disappearance would go nearly all the
evils of this country The prohibition
party has spoken out on the tariff ques-
ton. 1t would raise the revenues of this
country out Of what he possesses instead OF
what he buys; in other words, unmitigated
free trade. Protection ought to have nc
place in a government that regards the
rights of the people.
The platform was adopted this afternoon
and the nominations will be made to.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The political situation for the
Democratic party at the present time
is full Of poril for the success OF the
National ticket. e&t g.. :,
In New York, Senator Hill, by his
action in forcing the holding OF the
conVeotion on February -22nd, for
electing delegates to the National
Convention, has aroused bitter op-
position to his candidacy, which, in
the event Of his controlling the Alba
ny convention, and securing the nom
instion tor the Presidency, threatens
to dsseat him at the polls ia Novemt
Der. -
The leaders of the party in the
House OF Representatives are divided
on the silver question, while such
trusted leaders as German, Vest,
Carlisle and othc-s in the Senate are
opposed to the passage of free coin
age bill at this session OF Congress.
They claim that nothing will be &C.
complished by the passage Of a free
coinage bill now as it would be vetoed
by the President in case it should
pass the Republican Senate, and that
the result of the passage of such
disruption Of the Democratic party in
New York, New JERSEY and Connect
cut, and the consequent loss Of those
States without being able to carry a
single Western State on free. coin
age platform. The policy mapped
out by the leaders is that the coming
campaign shoald be fought on the
single issue OF the tariff and that the
silver issue should DO postponed until
after the Presidential election.
On the other hand, the silver Dem
ocrats in the House very justly claim
that the party is pledged, by it's plat
forms Of two years ago, to pass free
coinage bill at this session Of Con
gross and that, il they fail to keep
faith with the people who elected
them, their seats will be filed this
Fall by men VINO will obey the voice
OF the people expressed through the
ballot box.
In view Of the conflicting opinions
OF the leaders of the party ON the
silver question the query naturally
arises in the mind of every true DEM
ocrat which is better for the party, to
fight the battle on the tariff issue and
win glorious victory, or risk the
chances Of being defeated under the
banner Of free coinage. While we are
heartily in favor OF the free coinage of
silver and believe it is the only
remedy for the depression under
which this State suffers, we are not
prepared to say that the party should
make that an issue in the campaign,
If, by 30 doing, it would simply invite
defeat, when victory could be achieved
by leaving that issue out Of the fight.
We will follow the flag carried by
tho chosen leader of the party
whether it be inscribed with Tariff
Reform and Free Coinage, or bears
alone the legend "That Unnecessary
taxation is unjust taxatiou.n . .- u.

BAD FIRE IN THE VILLAGE.

BAD FIRE IN THE VILLAGE.
About.S30 o'clock last evening, fire
under considerable Roadway, was dis
cuvered in the barn adjoining the dwell
ing house of Mrs. Ida Martin. A large
crowd gathered and began passing water
from the river to men at the house, but
to no purpose, The fire soon spread to
the dwelling house of David Martin and
an unoccupied building owned by A. e,
P. Lord and to large pile of slabs. All
three buildings were burned to the
ground. The wind was quite strong
and it looked for awhile as if the build
ings of Henry Fogg, Esq, would go, and
if his had caught it would have been
been impossible to save several others
as they are quite closely connected. The
houses occupied by Mr.. Bergman and
Mrs Hanna were protected by having
blankets and quilts spread over the side
and saturating them with water. The
houses of Mrs Ida Martin and Mr.. Mar
tin were insured, and the residents are
much pleased that such is fact. as
Mr.. David Martin is a deserving man,
and total loss of his property without
insurance would be hard blow to him.
The cause of the fire seems to be IN
known.
The schools on the Hollis and Buxton
sides have commenced with prospects of
successful terms.

We nuticed in your paper of the 3rd
inst the names of some of the aspirants
for the post office here, among them the
name of Mr.. Frank L. Clark. He is the
son of the late Jacob Clark, who for
wears was chairman of the board of Sc
1ectmen. Mr. Frank L. Clark began his
career some two years ago as q boy, with
the firm of T. &c. ]. T. Hancock doing
the heavy work connected country with
grocery store. Being an apt, diligent and
strictly honest boy, agreeable to the Gus
toners. he grew to be indispensable, and
finally became head clerk. Being pru-
dent and frugal young man, he managed
to save a few Thousand dollars, and after
the death of Thos. Hancock the Hancock,
Clark Co. was formed, and Mr. Clark was
made treasurer. He has been town clerk
for several years, town treasurer for the
past three years, and treasurer of Sloan
Lodge of T. o. 0. F. since $780, He
is Democrats but not like many
Democrats, unable to see any good
in the opposite party. Being popular in
his own party, as well as with the Re-
publicans, we haven't any doubt but
what he would get two-thirds of the
whole vote in town for post master, if
vote for candidate for that Office should
he taken.
