PEACE PREVAILS

only Cooperation and Harmony Existing
Between the Two Democratic Commit
tees at Chicaec-False Rumors Stamped
All this week and until election day
the democratic state committee will be in
constant session. Yesterday Chairman
Delos Phelps came TO town and installed
himself at the Sherman headquarters
He was joined later By Secretary Theo-
dore Nelson and members o! the state
committee. Sunday was an off day in
the campaign, and the leaders sat down
together, smoked cigars aud chstted so
claDly about the merits of certain "pOin-
tiers" they intend to test in the hunting
field after election.
1--WE are going to carry Illinois with
out doubt" said Mr.. Phelps confidently.
I'VE are thoroughly we'll organized
much bette than the republicans-and
we shall get our vote out. Possibly the
people over at the Grand Pacific may
have more money than we have, but then
we have enough for q tolersbly stiff CAM
psign."
The republicans are hard driven"
said Secretary Nelson. when they are
forced to invent stories about q GOODNESS
between this committee. Mr.. Cables
committee and the local committee on
Monroe street.
The fact of the matter is, continued
the secretary, that in no previous cam
psigD was there ever such a united and
harmonious co-operotion of all the COM
mittees. The credit OF this is due to
Mr.. Cable and it is only fair to
say so. The national committee has
helped both the state and the local COM
mittees to great extent and to this at
tribute the almost perfect organization
found in Cook county and the rest of the
state of Illinois. Somebody claimed
the other day that Don NJ. Dickinson and
Ben Cable were at outs because Mr. Dick
inson did not praise the work of the
western committee. AS Mr Dickinson
himself is q member of the western COM
mittee, it is easily seen that he could 10:
consistent with good taste publicly
praise its workings. In private, how
ever, he is not bit backward in ex-
pressing his p easure at the success of the
western branch. '-Chicsgo Daily News

The Third Baptist church OF St.

and enthusiastic call to DIR. w. r. l..
Smith, of this city, to be pastor.
This is one of the largest and finest
churches in st. Louis. 1t is under
stood that DIR. Smith will certainly
accept the call and enter upon the
duties Of his new pastorate Oct.
l. AT the Wednesday night prayer
meeting the First Baptist church of
this city, of which Dir. Smith is pres
ent pastor, passed strong resolutions
of protest against Smiths acceptance
of the call from st. Louis, but it is
said to be settled that he will accept.
The probabilities are that he will
part with the First church in the SER
vices of the coming Sabbath and go

LIVELY POLITICS.
Mrs. Lease Makes an Exhibition Of Her.
self weaver's Pulaski Record.

COLUMBUS, GA, Sept. %. - The
Third party meeting here today
drew together about 800 persons, one.
third OF whom were Third party
men. Gen. Weaver and Mrs. Lease
arrived this morning. At the opera
house Gen. Weaver spoke, denounc
ing the Democratic party, and charg'
ing that all the evils of poverty and
distress were attributed to that party
He was followed by Mrs. Lease, who
sailed into the Democratic party live
ly. She extolled Weaver and the
Third party, and was particularly
severe on the Democratic press and
characterized the Atlanta Journal as
a lying sheet, and its representative
as liar.
Thad Horton, the Journal reporter
who got the affidavits of parties in
Pulaski setting forth Weaver's brutal
ity during the war, was on the stage
and Immediately sprang forward,
stating he had affidavits in his pocket
to sustain the Journals report and
would read them. Weaver declared
that he had engaged the house and
Horton should not read the affidavits.
Great confusion ensued, of cheers and
Kisses. Finally Horton was taken
from the stage. He told Weaver that
he could not resent the insult from a
woman, that her sex protected her,
but he would hurl the lie in the teeth
of any man who would step out as
her champion.
Afterward Horton made a speech
in front of the opera-house in which
he upheld the publication in the
Journal, and was loudly cheered.
Gen. Weaver and his party left in
the afternoon for Macon. There was
no demonstration at their departure
and but a handful of people saw them
depart.

An Elephants Ear" in Bloom.

Mrs. A. E. Dugan sent to the LEAF
CHRONICLE this morning an artistic
collection of flowers containing as a
central piece an exquisitely beautiful
palladium bloom. 1t is quite rare
thing that this plant flowers, and
this one is particularly interesting.
Its deep rich yellow leaf is twisted
into, the shape of a cornucopia, mid
way of which an opening discloses
the stamen, long and beautifully
tapering, whose rich cream-colored
pollen presents a striking contrast to
the other portions of this most sing
ular growth.

CREDIT Is DUE.

Great credit ought to be given to the
eight delegates who went to Minnea polls
and voted. in spite of Establishments, for
candidate for the Presidency who has made
q discreet and safe official for three years
past, filling the different offices perhaps as
satisfactory as it was possible in face of
c0ntendng factions. In no instance do we
believe has he given way to the blighting
influence which has been so common in our
large cities. We allude to what is termed
boss rule: where q few persons parcel out
the Offices. Pressure was brought to bear
upon the President Immediately after his
installation into Office, and it has been kept
up without much intermissiOn to the pres
ent time. L Under such circumstances an
effort was made to take the selection OF a
candidate for the Presidency cut of the
hands Of the people and give it to a few
sehemers who have made the word politics
almost a synonym for dishonesty. Un-
questiOnably most of the men who in the
first instance desired to defeat the nOmu-
alton of General Harrison were those who
have been identified with the worst ele-
ment in politics. In California an effort
was made to control all Of the delegates,

ton with the railroad managers for that

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

A Washington dispatch states that Spain
and Italy have notified the United States Of
the desire Of their nations to take part in
the International Monetary Conference
This action Of these two Governments CON-
petes the list Of nations invited, with the
exception of Russia. OF all European na-
ti0ns invited Russia is the one which would
not hold back from any disinclinatiOn 10 join
in a movement inauguTated by the United
States. With so nearly all the great CON-
mereial nations in TIE conference the hope
increases that some plain way may be
agreed upon that will permit the free coin
age Of both metals on an agreed ratio With
a common ratio the silver dollar OF each ma
ton represented in the conference would
become interchangeable with the gold
dollar of every other nation. This
would give a stability Of value to
silver which would make the mainte-
nance Of the coin Of the two metals at parity
apparently an easy matter. The hope of
inducing England aud Germany to enter
into such an agreement lies largely in the
evident failure of the mono-metailic expert
ment. 1t is already pretty clear that the
metallic basis OF European countries is too
narrow. The failure Of a $4,000, 900 bank
in London, following close upon the failure
Of Barring Bros, is an indication of the
scarcity Of money in which currency may
be redeemed that British public men can

THE FARMERS IN SESSION.

The meeting Of farmers at Sacramento TO
discuss the Caminetti bill to revive by
draulic mining left the subject where 1t was.
The Camnetti bill proposed 10 license ny
draulic mining on condition that the miners
should adopt a plan which was specified to
impOund their debris. The farmers say
that this is proposing an experimental
scheme. of which the miners viii reap the
benefit If il is successful, and the farmers
will suffer the loss if it fails. They, there.
fore. demand that the bill be killed. A
DELEGATION from the Miners Association
was present, but the farmers refused to
hear them; and when, subsequently,, this
action was recousdered, and the meeting
agreed 10 hear what the miners had TO say,
it was found that they had gone.
Engineers have always questioned the
possibility Of impOunding debris by any
method. All plans for the purpose are
probably open to the same objection as the
brush dams. Pulverized quartz and silica,
held in suspension by water, will 90 through
any dam which allows the water itself TO
pass, and science is unaeQuaiated with any
c0ntrvance which will compel the water
to pTecipitate its contents in a reservoir
The problem. therefore, is on the face Of it
science probably lie sooner the miners
make up their minds that hydraulic mining
must be abandoned the better. 1t is not at
ali Impossible that a plan may be devised
for the pulyerization of the gold-bearing
rock by the dry method.
It is said by geOlOgists that there are over
S5000nO,O0O worth Of gold in the rocks Of
the Sierra. Such estimates are wild, be-
cause no one can form an estimate of the
extent to which the vicinity of the mother
vein is mpregnated with metal. But if it
were ascertained that there are FIVE thou
sand instead of five hundred million dol
lars of gold in rock, it is possible TO obtain
obtain but small portion Of it. as the
whole ridge Of the mountains cannot be
upturned Tor it.
Gold is found everywhere, all over the
world, in rock, gravel, sand and aluvium.
Any one who chooses to experiment with
the sand which rolls in past the seal rocks
viii find c0lOTs in the pan. But there are
but few places where gold occurs in quanti-
ties sufficient to pay wages to the miner,
and in many Of these he cannot prosecute
his calling without encroaching upon the
rights of others. Plans have been sug-
gested for the extricatiCn of gold from the
gravel without the use of water. When the
miners find that the farmers understand
their rights, and are prepared to maintain
them, they will probably bring one Of thes ,
plans to perfect ion.
