ALL ARE AT WORK.
More NOn-Partisan Plans
Arranged.
A Committee VIII Canvass the City
for the Selection of Additional
Delegates.

The committee of three appointed at the
Non Partisan meeting on Thursday even
ing, consisting of Frank J. Sullivan.
Joseph Britton and Lud wig Altschul, held
a preliminary meeting yesterday morning,
and will meet again at IL O'clock to-day.
The committee is engaged in endeavoring
TO select well-knOwn and respected cit
liens TO add to the list of delegates to the
NOn-Partisan conven ion.
The names of Frederick w. Dohrmann.
William Hollis and MIR. Grant of Murphy.
Grant 81 Co. have been mentioned, and
these gentlemen will be requested to serve
in the con ntion.
Frank j. Sullivan, chairman OF the CON-
mittee to select additional delegates to the
Non-Partisan convention, declared yester-
day that it was time to end boSsism and
corruption in local politics. He was
heartily in sympathy with the Non-Parti-
san movement. The Democratic munich
pal convention, he thought. was controlled
by Buckley. and he had no doubt that
Burns would control the Republican con.
ven ion.
This city," said he, "has been ruled
too long by the railroad and the water
company. ruT one, L favor action by the
on-Partisan convention in relation to the
nomination of the Railroad Commission
aud members OF the Safe Board of
Equalization"
Mr.. Sullivan thought taxes were too high
in this city, and thought the remedy was
to divorce the city government from poll
tics. Where man had proven meritori-
Ous in Office he believed he should be re-
tanned, and instanced County Clerk Haley
as an example. He also suggested the
name of Mayor Ebert in connection with a
denomination.
Charles Ashton and j. j. O'Farrell, who
were appointed on the committee to select
hall, began their canvass yesterday.
They vi / continue it Today, as the desire
is 10 secure a place which can be used
until the close Of the Non-Partisan con-
vention.
Prior to Mondays meeting about all the
wtrk that can be accomplished In addition
to securing headquarters will consist in the
selection Of additional delegates. 4 thor
ough canvass of the city viii be made for
the purpose OF securing tue best men avail
able for the work Of the convention.

HIS HANDS NOT TIED.
Brice Rather FIoutS the Ohio
Platform.
He Has a Construction of His Own as
to the Meaning of Free
Silver.

NEW YORK. Sept PA speci al to the
World from Pittsburg, Pa. says: Sena-
tor Calvin S. Brice was interviewed at the
Union depot here as he was passing on his
way 10 New York from the Ohio c9nVen-
ton. Referring to his experiences he
said: The insertion OF the free-silver
plank in the platform of the Ohio State
convention does not tie my hands. l do
not wish to be construed as saying that the
platform does not commit the lawmakers

lions, one of which favored free silver.
gathering of people might unanimously
say that they favored religion, bnt that ex-
preston might commit one man 10 Mo-
hammedanism, while another might have
a tendency toward being a Baptist. So it
is with the free-siiver plank of the conven-
ton. The vote by which it was passed. a
proportion OF about 10 8. shows how the
people over there feel about it.
"When we say free silver, we may mean
variety of things. There was free
silver law that we had up to 1873 Then
there was the Bland law, which continued
in operation after lapse of years until
1890 Then we had the Sherman law.
which existed from that time until 1898.
There is free-silver coinage which allows
a man TO take the metal to the Mint and
receive his dollars therefor, less the amount
of the seigniorage. Another silver law
allowed a man to deposit gold or silver
with the Government and receive in return
a sort of warehouse receipt for it, Sill
third law gives man certificate for the
metal. So you see that free silver may
mean any one of several systems. none of
which is sp icited by the resolution of the
Ohio Democratic convention.
"Ine resolution will in no way alter or
affect my attitude in the Senate. l can
