NEW YORK, July Ex-senator John
p. Jones of Nevada is in New York
arranging for free silver convention
at Chicago on August l. The senator
told reporters that whatever disposi-
ton the house makes of the Sherman
act, its repeal cannot pass the senate
unless a substitute is offered satisfac-
tory to the champions of silver free
coinage. II can if l wish" continued
the senatar, ''tie up the senate from
now until the terms of its members
expire. OF course there is liable to be
a prolonged debate. Stewart, Tiller,
Wolcott and the rest of us who de-
mand free coinage or something akin
to ii, will have great deal to say. If
we get tired talking a motion to ad
journ, TO 90 into executive session, or
any other motion will continue the
debate"
but IF CLCTURE is ATTEMPTED"
There is 10 more chance of cloture
than there was during the federal
elections bill fight in the Fifty-frst
congress. The gold men must come
to us. We shall not surrender to them
by any means. Our Chicago conven-
tion bids fair to prove very popular
and largely attended one. We shall
exhibit strength of which our oppoh-
euts perhaps do not dream

Correspondence of The Leader.
No drouth here, but fine growing
weather continues and from the pres
ent outlook oklahoma bids fair to be
among the finest lands in America for
agriculture. No wonder the home
seeker is making every effort possible
to make sure his home in the next
opening. Many no doubt viii I've dis
appointed, but many will as i'm the
frst oklahoma opening, in "a few short
years have valuable farms
Seeding, corn cutting, thresning,
hay-making, and harvesting of millet
with other farm work, are moving on.
The fever among few of the cattle
is causing some uneasiness but it is
hoped will not prove serious
The most interesting OF all con-
cerncd seems TO be the proclamation
and how to make the most money of
every article dispensible and disrobe of
every shacklc of hinderuuec prepara-
tory to the race for new home.
We are sorry to learn that trouble
existing in our country has to be taken
to court TO be righted But since it is
the case, hope each offender will
receive his punishment in way that
will prove beneficial to them in the
future. For as yet our new country
has very little surplus money and
neighbor not on friendly terms is not
very commendable.

Crop Out.
NEW YoRK, Feb. 14.--The afternoon
session of the Panama investigation was
devoted to the examination of Bayard,
the American representative of the
liquidator Of the Panama Canal COM
pany and director of the Panama rail-
road. Representative Geary remarked
during the examination that the Pacific
Mail scandal was going to crop out some
time during the investigation, and asked
Bayard If the Panama road had rot dis
criminated against American interests
because it WAS controlled by French
capitalists. Bsyard replied vehemently
"No." He claimed that the quarrel
with the Pacific Mail was brought about
by the latter company flirting with the
transcon tinental lines. Appleton was

New York, Feb. IA local paper
will say in the morning: A piratical
expedition against one of the Central
American states is being fitted out at
Key West, Fla, by Cubsns and Ameri-

been gradually augmented at the Florida
sea port until several hundred fighting
men, armed with repeating rifles and
abundant ammunition, are ready to en-
bark on the expedition. 1t is said a
small steamer has been chartered at a
northern port and is now en- route to
Key West where it is expected to arrive
today. The hold is we'll ballasted with
cannon, Gatling guns and field artillery
sufficiently formidable when in desper-
ate hands to make war against the gov
ernment of Honduras. The United

Key West yesterday, much to the sur
prise of every one in town and it is be-
lieved she was ordered there to prevent
