ThG State Convention.

The democratic State convention to
nominate candidates for Governor, Lieu.
Tenant Governor and Attorney General,
met at the ShelbOurne warehouse, IN
Richmond, last Thursday and vas called
to order by Mr. j. T. EllysOn.
THE TICKET.
For Governor-Charles T. O'Ferrall.
For Lieutenant GovernOr-Robert c..
Kent.
For Attorney General--R. Il. Scott.
At 1912 the roll was called and the
balotiug for Governor commenced. The
ballot resulted IN O'Ferralls nomination
by large majority.
The ballot stood as follows: O'Ferrall,
,146; Tyler. 800; Blford, 159. 1t only
required S21 votes to dominate.
When the convention voted to 90 on
with the nominations, Judge Duncan, of
Lee county, nominated Col. Robert c.
Kent for Lieutenant Governor. The
rules were at once suspended and Kent
was nominated without opposition.
1t was O'Clock when the roll was
finally called on the nomination for at
torney general. At its conclusion,
Chairman Cardwell announced that
Scott had received 926, majority of the
votes. Mr.. Flood, who had beer making
a gallant but vain fight for Blackstone
moved to make it unanimous, which wat
agreed to. The official vote was not
announced. bat Scott received over 9OC
votes. There were speeches, the platform
was read by Judge GOode and adopted
and the handful of delegates remaining
adjourned sine die at 2.30 o'clock.

The assignment of w. w. Dewitt on
Wednesday of last week was heard
with sincere regret by nearly every
citizen OF this county, and particularly
of Lewistown. Mr.. Dewitt has been
one of our most enterprising and pub
lic-spirited citizens. No doubt had he
been less so he could have withstood
the severe strain of the present finan-
cial depression. His sympathles, also
for those desiring the necessities of life
led him to extend accommodations
beyond the point OF safety. The assets
and liabilities have not been made
public, but we trust Mr.. Dewitt will
in due time be able to meet all his OBJ
legations and resume business at the
old stand.

Got There Just the Same.

He wore n determined look, and as soon
as he entered the office Judge Meagher
knew what HI wanted. Aside from the de-
termined expression he wore a pair of regu-
lation high-heeled boots, spurs. a broad
brimmed hat and a German accent. He
wasn't the least bit bsshful, like the aver
age man who seeks a marriage license, and
old the Judge he wanted "a Wedding aber,"
and asked the cost. Three dollars, the
usual price, were laid on the judges desk.
All was well until the judge asked for the
name of the one destined to be the happy
wearer of the bridal veil. The young son
OF the Fatherland hesitated, then slowly
pronounced the name of one of the well
known young ladies of Lewistown. The
document with official seal was given the
seeker after matrimonial experience and he
straiehtway proceeded to the home Of the
young lady. To her he showed the permit
to wed. and asked her to become his frau.
He explained that he would give her a good
home, and she wouldn't have much to do,
only milk "A few cows, cool for himself, his
father and mother, and in her leisure mt
ments chop a few cords of wood. The girl
was astonished at the proposal of the
would-be Benedict, but astonishment soon
gave way to anger, and the persistentlover
was told to leave the house. Believing in
the old saying, Faint heart ne'er won fair
lady" the native son of Kaiser's land re.
turned to Judge Meagher's Office and, pro-
ducing three more silver dollars, asked Tor
another license and had the name OF
another girl inserted. 1t is presumed that
a story similar in substance to the one
told his frat choice was poured into the
ears OF this one, but with more effectiveness
as a few hours later the pair called upon
one of the ministers, who, by the power in
vested in him, made them man and wife.
Later the couple we're seen on their wed
ding trip, in a springless farm wagon, going
toward the ranch of the young mans
parents, which no doubt will be their future
home.

Cleveland's Monometallism.

In his declaration that both the
great parties are committed to BIZ
metallism Senator German gives ut
terance to a fact that certain leaders
in both parties seem to overlook. 1t
is impossible to predict with any de-
gree of accuracy the effect of the Cleve-
land monometallic policy on the
Democratic party. Senator German
is credited with the statement that il
persisted in it will "split the Demo
cratic party and send it from power
for another generation" While this
would be fortunate for the country,
the Press earnestly hopes the words
of the astute Democratic leader will
not be lost upon some of its Republi.
can friends who are as much ''gone'
on gold recommendation as President
Cleveland and the coterie of rich
bankers who seem to control his Fl.
nancial views.
The people of the United States, by
a large majority, are for bimetallism
They are for a currency based Oh the
two precious metals-gold and silver
Many who voted for the Wilson bill
in the house of representatives are
strong bimetallists, and this will like
wise be true of those whose votes will
carry the repeal a through tn,
senate. The party ignoring thes'
facts will make a serious mistake

Senator Faulkner has introduced an
amendment to the Sherman repeal
DILL. 1t provides for the monthly coin
age of SO, 600 900 worth Of silver till the
aggregate circulation of silver reaches
$500, DOC, 900 and calls for the retire
ment of all bills under $40 denomina-
ton. 1t is believed the great bulk of
silver advocates, Republicans and
Democrats alike, wilt support the
measure when they find it impossible
to get anything more favorable. Many
repeal advocates, representing the con-
sentative element of that side, will
probably cast their votes for an amend
ment giving silver the limited recog-
milton proposed. The administration
does not favor the amendment and
President Cleveland has intimated that
such a measure would not secure his
approval. 1t would seem to be q very
reasonable basis for a compromise.

"The manufacturer of wooden goods
will not buy his raw material at a high
price when he believes that wool will
be put opon the free list and the price
of wool go down. The importer of
wooden goods will not pay a high rate
of duty on his importations when he
believes that within a short time the
duties will be greatly reduced. Thus
the importer and the manufacturer
will only provide for immediate and
pressing wants, and production and
trade languish. This illustration-one
of many that might be made-shows
what our industrial and trade con-
ditions must be, pending the revision.
1t is impossible to contine this disturb
ance to what's called III protected in
dustries. When such disturbances
occur they soon permeate all n

The New York World, which is owned
by a foreign Jew and run with British
gold, a year ago advised workingmen
to vote for Grover Cleveland and free
trade, and thereby advance their own
interests. Now it advises the half

The pressure of hard times should
render more popular the cheap, but
nourishipg diet of rice. There are
many ways in which rice can be cooked

How the average Democratic sheets
rejoice these days over the starting up
of q few mills and factories on half
time or with reduced forces. A year
ago it was anything to down the man
u%facturers. In some instances M
ployes have gone to the manufacturers
and proposed a ten cent reduction in
their wages rather than remain unem-
ployed. Dun's report says "more than
500 manufacturing establishments a
more than 200 different points have
closed their doors since June l, throw
ing fully 5OO,ooo men out of employ
ment." A few may start OF fall orders
and on a reduced scale as regards
numbers Of men and wages, but there
will be no great improvement until
some action is taken on the tariff. II
radical changes are made some estab-
lishments will be closed permanently
| while others will be run on the British
scale of wages.

A Washington special says: at has
become evident as the expressions of
the ways and means committee de-
velop that the tariff bill will be much
more moderate than if framed six
months ago; but there is a practical
unapimity in the committee in favor
of putting wool on the free list and
making a heavy cut in wool manufac-
lures. Some members of the COM
mittee will work hard for free lumber
Wool, of course, is marked for slaugh.
ter because the party has nothing to
lose in the way of votes.

1t is strange howmen will rush wildly
into some new territory for homes
simply because the land has for years
been a government reserve. Had the
Cherokee strip been open for settle
ment like all public lands, it would
have received but little attention. The
mere fact that the gates were to be let
down caused thousands 10 gather there
and suffer all name of hardships to
gain an entrance. Last Saturday the
signal was given for the entrance into
the promised land, and fully $4,000
men and women had gathered on the
boundaries for the start. The dis
patches state: "As the minutes de-
creased to seconds reins were frightened,
