SILVER
Interesting Report Of Delegate McAssev
From the Butte Convention.

ioAi illC Dullt convention.
On last Tuesday evening the Local
Silver association met in special session
with Vice President Kyle in the chair.
Minutes of the previous meeting were
read and approved. Jonathan McAssev
was called upon for a report of the
business of the Butte meeting which he
had attended. In response MI. McAssev
told a story full of enthusiasm and brist-
ling with lively points. His report oc-
cupieG several minutes and embodied
the principal transactions of the Butte
convention. The report was received
with applause.
The report showed the appointment
OF the following named parties
from Meagher county to attend the Chi
cago convention and to work in Wash
lngton during the coming session:
W. J. Clark, w. c.. Listikow, G. l..
McGibbon, T. G. Simpson, d. E. Folsom.
]. McAssey.
Upon its completion the report was
accepted on motion of George Gum.
President McAssey then assumed the
chair and announced that II ~associa-
ton had been authorized to draw upon
the state committee for funds with which
to send one delegate to Chicago, and
asked that the association proceed to
elect such delegate.
1t was the unanimous choice that Jo-
nathan McAssey be chosen and James
Kyle placed him in nomination bv a
speech so full of feeling as to call forth
the loudest cheers. Immediately upon
his nomination, however, McAssev very
adroitly presented his decline and asked
that his name be withdrawn. When it
began to dawn upon the minds of the
members that he was in earnest. and
that their first choice could not be
made available they began to look
elsewhere.
George Gum then nominated c. L.
Parker. Judge Gray nominated William
A. Wilson. The latter declining, the
former was elected by reclamation. He
spoke very briefly thanking the a~ssocia-
ton for the honor and promising to do
on which he was sent.
The Secretary read a communication
from r. N. Sutherlin of White Sulphur
Springs, also a press notice from the
Inter Mountain announcing the boycott
of eastern firms not friendly to silver.
which is beginning in Butte city. Both
articles were ordered filed.

An Order as to the Preparation of Their
Statements.
Secretary Hoke Smith and Commissioner of
Pensions Lochren have abolished practice

affecting the taking Of testimony OF claimants,
which is said to permit fraud 1t has become a
custom for some pension attorneys to have
printed copies of statements of the claimants

being of such general nature as to cover al
most any case. This statement is usually read
to the claimant, who is assured that it is all
right, and he thereupon makes affidavit to it as
his own statement, although it may not cover
his case absolutely.
To correct this practice the following order
was issued today from the penson bureau:
In the preparation OF testimony in the sup

affecting the particular case and not merely
formal must be written. or prepared to be type
written. In the presence of the witness, and

IMPORTANT CHANGES.
Rumored Shake Up Among the Chiefs of
the War Department

Rumored Shake Up Among the Chiefs OF
the War Department.
Rumors we're circulating in the War Depart
plates several important changes ia the divis-
ion officers of the department. There are only
five chiefs of divisions proper, but there are
chief clerks in each bureau Of the departments
whose offices are also outside of the classified
service and consequently are at the disposal of
the head Of the department Most of these
Offices are held by men who served during the
war and who afterward worked themselves up
through the civil service to their presen. places
THOSE LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED.
1t is said that Secretary Lamont has been in
vestigating the working force Of the depart
ment and has concluded that the service can
be improved by several changes. According to
rur,or the division chiefs affected are Mr.
Samuel Hodgkins, who has held his present
office since July /, 1880. and Mr.. John Ram
dolph, who has been chief of the correspond
ence division since July Is. $780, Another
person said to be booked for removal or
reduction is Mr.. Martin r. Thorn,
who has been chief Of the supply
division since July, 1890. The reasons for ac-
tion in his are said to be altogether outside
OF his connection with the contract for the ex-
cavation Of Ford's Theater. Mr.. John Twee-
dale. chief clerk Of the departm is said to
be secure. In the absence of Secretary La
mont it is impossible to obtain official informa-
tion on the subject. but there are excellent
reasons for believing that the rumors very
much exaggerated. il, indeed. they have any
foundation in fact Secretary Lamont is ex-
pected here tomorrow

kissing goes by favor says the old saw,

on the inside that this trite adape still holds

administration. early protestations to the con-
trary notwithstanding
The department gossips in talking about an

made since March recall the fact that eariy in
TINS administration loud and earnest statements
were made, emanating from high authorities, 10
the erect that the merit rule would prevail in
the matter OF promotions; that applicants for
appointment above the civil service need not
necessarily bring congressional Endorsements il
they had Endorsements of worthy citizens busi-
ness men and people Of standing in their COM
munlty. The impression was conveyed that the
ubiquitous Congressman was not to be all pow
erfnl, and that Others than the men holding
congressional influence would have chance.
IL was noticed a. the time that the Congress-
men, who were thus threatened to be rudely
shorn OF their Samsonisn locks of power by
TINS edlct, did not make any violent outcry
They did not seem at all appalled, at the gloomy
prospect OF having their Inducements disre-
garded- They said never a word, but winked
the other eye.
The gossips say that subsequent events have
shown that the Congressman knew how they
stood when they did not become alarmed They
say that the largo crowd OF applicants who
rushed in with their outside Endorsements for

cool their heels in the ante rooms Of the heads
OF departments, with hope gradually oozing
from them, while the men whom the Congress-
men indorse carry Off the prizes with regularity
and dispatch.
They say that the promotions which are be-
ing daily made in the higher clerkships can all
be traced to congressional influence, and that
the able clerk thirsting for elevation is not
likely to get it unless he has his Senator or
member / the attention of the head of the
