TRENTON, n. j., May 27.-The Demo-
cratic state convention met in Taylor's
opera house here, Ex-Congressman Nc
Donald Of Hudson county, was made
permanent chairman.
The platform was adopted with en-
thusiasm. delegates cheering and
wrenching flags from the decorations
and waving them wildly. The tariff
plank condemns the Mckinley bill, lays
claim to reciDitory as a feeble step in
the direction Of tariff reform as laid
down by President Cleveland, and says
the Democratic party should continue
its battle for tariff reform until that
reform is embodied in the statutes Of
the United States.
The balance Of the platform that is Of
national Importance is embodied in the
following:
Resolved, That with full recognition
of the responsibility of the Democracy OF
New Jersey towards the national Democ-
racy, we name as our candidate for the
presidency, a statesman who boldly took a
decisive step in the way of tariff reform
and to emphasize our preference, we i'll
struct our delegates to cast the vote of the
state for Grover Cleveland as long as his
name is before the convention.
Resolved, That we condemn the policy
of the free coinage of deprecated legal
tender silver, and also further purchases
of silver bullion under the Republican
legislation Of 1890; and we believe that the
whole matter Of the use of silver as q
money metal should be relegated to the
future concerted action of commercial ma

CHICAGO, July 23.-The Santa Fe Off
cials say they have not abandoned III cir
proposition to make $14.70 second.class
rate between Missouri river and Califor-
mia points. Being such an important
step to take, President Marvel thought
the matter should first be submitted 10 the
board of directors for their approval, and
they now have it under consideration.
Just now the road is more deeply in
terested in the question of securing an ex
tension of the sale Of Knights tempt
tickets to Denver for the benefit of Colo
RADIO summer resorts than anything else.
1t will probably ignore the action Of the
Western Passenger association in refusing
to grant the extension and place tickets
on sale July 25 just the same. Hopes
were entertained that relief would be &C.
cured through the Alton, which was ex.
pected to cooperate with its Trans-btis-
souri, alley, the Union Pacific, but Mr..
Charlton sent out telegram this morn
ing saying that his road would abide by
the action of the Western Passenger asso-
citation.
Chicago, July 23.-Considerable of
sensation has been caused by the an
Houuceueut VI Iue A., L. ~ .. L. CoHl-
Dany that it will make a rate of $l2 from
Chicago to Denver and return on account
of the Triennial conclave OF X. T. The
other roads are filled with CONSERVATION
by this startling. cut. The reason given
by the Atchison people for taking this
step shows a surprising state of affairs.
They say they were compelled to make the
reduction in order to protect themselves
against the demoralizing conduct of their
competitors. The rate originally agreed
upon by the Western Passenger and
Trans Missouri association for the con-
clave was one fare for the round trip,
making the price of tickets from Chicago
$3.50.

Joe Backham, one Of the young men
who stole horses here about the 18th Of
June, and was remanded to Jail, came
very near escaping on Wednesday morn
ing. He worked the old game of decoy-
ing his bed, when he was permitted to
take bis usual morning exercise, and hid
behind the cell. When the jailer locked
the doors and went out, Blackham soon
made whole in the brick wall and es-
capped, and, but for the timely efforts Of
Sheriff Fountain and Smith Lea, his de.
parture would have been final. Smith
found him hiding under a stump on the
bank OF the Hondo, nearly a mile below
town.-Roswe Record.
The total value OF property assessed in
this county this year as shown by the as
SCISSORS returns is 84,189,000 or about
$600,00 less than the assessed valuation
last year. This difference was caused by
the reduction in the valuation of cattle
from IS to SO per head, and the bank fail
ures here and at Deming. which took off
more than 100000 from the tax rolls.
There was also considerable depreciation
in the value OF mining property assessed
there. The number of cattle returned in the
county was ISL GAO head, which is be-
lieved to be far below the actual number
OF cattle in the county.-Silver City Sem
tinel.
Last week the trouble which has been
brewing at Hanover came to sudden
elimination when the A., T. & S. f.
railroad company refused to furnish any
more cars to the Silver City & Northern
railroad company. Some time ago the
Silver City & Northern cancelled the
through rate on iron ore, thus practically
prohibiting the shipment of iron ore from
Hanover by other than the Southwestern
Coal q Iron company, which is under the
same management as the Silver City &
Northern railroad company, if terms can
not be made with the Silver City & North
ern, new line will, in all probability, be
built from this place to Hanover to haul
the ores from that camp.-Silver City
