MAKING NEW CONVERTS.

1t is very evident from the bluntly ex-
pressed views of the mining representa-
tives that there has been experienced a
change of heart within the last few days.
The gold standard men are no longer in
sisting upon their ideas, but manifest a
decided leaning to bimetalism. There
seems to be general desire to-day to
agree upon proposition to repeal the
Sherman and state bank laws and coin
silver at ratio of 20 to l. The situa-
ton may improve beyond this point, but
this is great gain.

DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.


At the Democratic caucus Saturday
night Mr.. Crisp was unanimously re-
elected speaker of the house of represen-
tatives.
In accepting the speakership Mr..
Crisp said that the Democratic party was
now in full power for the first time in
thirty years, and it can repeal bad laws
and make good ones. Continuing, he
said:
"Our financial system should be revised
and reformed. The strictest economy in
public expenditures should be observed
and taxation should be equalized and
greatly reduced. To these purposes
are we thoroughly committed. We must
redeem our pledges. Let us begin the
work at once; let us lay aside every
other consideration to the public good
and endeavor to so discharge the
duties assigned to US rs to restore con-
fidence, promote prosperity and advance
the general welfare of all classes of our
people"

JOYOUS NOTE FROM SAN MARoIAL.
1t is said by those who have been here
since '82 that there is more water stand
ing in the tanks" or water-holes along
the railroad south of here, than at any
time in the past ten years, and that there
is enough to last all winter, if no more
falls. The grass on the prairies is eight
inches high, and farmers are preparing
to cut crop of hay. Stock is already in
good condition, and by the time the
eastern market gets settled, along this
fall, will be fat enough for the butcher.
The cloud which has so long overhung
the stock industry of this territory has
shown its silver lining.

1t is stated that the president will send
special message to congress at its spe-

Senator David B. Hill arrived from Al
bany last night. He, too, has silver bill.
It is understood the measure will aim to

be 16 to /.

The Colorado congressional delegation
is confident. letter has been teIe-
graphed to Denver constituents stating
that the unconditional repeal of the

that enough votes would be mustered in

true.
Inquiry at the treasury elicits the fact
that the government has on hand about
130,000000 ounces of fine silver, costing
$l0S,0 100000 of money. The coinage value
of the bullion on hand is about $177,OO0,-
900. If coined the government would
realize a profit of about $48,0O0,O00,
against which silver certificates could be
issued. 1t would take, however, about
five years to convert all this bullion into
silver dollars.
Representative Tracy, of New York, is
talked of for chairman of the coinage
committee in the event Of it being con-
sidered prudent to oust Bland. Gen.

ltal Notes

WAsHrNaroN, Aug. 1.-THE presidents 3
message WAS not sent to congress to-day.
1t will be sent in at noon tomorrow.
Statements of the contents of the mes
from source deemed to be reliable it is
learned that the message will be short,
not more than colum and half in
length.
Free silver Democrats express them
selves as agreeably surprised over the
modification Of the presidents views as
they are understood to be set forth in the
message.
as message demands the unconditional
repeal of the Sherman act, yet the presi
dent recognizes silver as one of the money
metals of the country which must be
maintained, but holds that with the pres
ent attitude of European countries the
existing ratio, 15l5 to /, between gold
and silver can not be maintained by this
country alone. Therefore, the president
does not favor free coinage of silver un-
der present conditions except for sub
sidiary purposes. He thinks the Eu-
ropean nations now depressing the price
of silver can, by the suppression OF free
coinage in this country except for sub
sidiary purposes, be coerced into an inter-
national agreement. He says he favors
silver on q just parity with gold and
stands by the Democratic platform of
1892, but thinks this platform can not be
carried out for the reason that a fixed
parity between the two metals can not be
maintained.
