SILVERITES TO MEET.
Bir1etallists Urged by Colonel Fisk to
Assemble at Washington.

DENVER, Col, April 2S-A. c. Fisk.
president of the Panamerican Bimetallic
Association, has issued the following call:
believing the present an auspicious time
to accomplish something substantial for
silver, thereby restoring prosperity and con-
tentment among the people, confidence of
our rulers and Institutions, comforting un-
told blessings on the human race a meet
ing is hereby called TO assemble in Wash
ington on the 22d of May proximo, COM
posed of representatives from the United
states, South and Central America and old
Mexico, and all the States thereof to me-
mor1aliZe the Congress of the United States
TO restore silver to its ancient rights at
ratio not to exceed 16 to l.
AT the bidding Of a power that has blot
ted out civilization in all ages, the law
making and executive branches OF the gov
ernment have stricken down one-half of
the metal money and debased and partially
demOnetized the paper currency, compelled
the people of the United States to pay un-
necessarily in the past twenty-five years
twenty TIVE ~ billion dollars interest principal
burdened the Nation with a real-estate
mortgage debt of twenty billions and other
debts aggregating as much more, and now
seek to reduce the country to a gold basis
and expect the people TO pay forty million
dollars of debt with $50O,000000 I'm gold to
$50 go, OF d debt with 81 In money. reducing the
from the debtors the power to pay their
debts.
THE census says there is $4,000 900 coo
worth of property in the United States. The
gold oligarchy has dissipated it's value one
half, rendering the Nation insolvent for ST.
50.OO0,OOO Twenty people already own three
fourths of the property of the Nation; ten
million people are involuntarily idle. Prop
erty of the Nation is rapidly being confis-
Gated; fields factories and mines are de-
serted; every industry is stricken as with
plague; strong men, refined women and
innocent babes are starving in the land of
plenty; rulers are rioting i'm luxurious
living and saturnalia, frenZied with their
success, and, as in the past, they are in
venting new schemes of robbery and plum
der.
When Greece, Rome and Egypt and the
Netherlands went down about per cent
of the people practically owned all the
wealth. Are we not hastenng TO the same
end? Is there not patriotism, manhood and
womanhood enough in the people to call
halt from our rulers? Let their BRAIN Drawn
and Sinew meet at the capital of the Ma
tion. Let petitions be circulated in every
precinct of the land and forward them to
the convention until the voice of forty mil
lions of people shall resound in the ears
of the Congress-, that we may ascertain

the Princess was going to England for
few months TO see her mother and friends
Mr. Mackay has already engaged a suite
OF state rooms for her on one Of the steam
ers OF the American line. sailing about the
middle of May. She will leave California
very soon and come East on a special
car by the Overland Flyer" Every ar
rangement has been made for her comfort
and safety during the trip. Her boy will
accompany her. and ample protection will
be guaranteed both the Princess and son
under the British flag during their sum-
mer sojourn in England.
A dispatch from Paris says: Prince
Colonna, the husband of the daughter of
Mrs John w Mackey, is not in this city,
as reported. His lawyers have no knowl-
edge OF an amicable settlement having been
arrived at in the litigation in progress be-
tween the Prince and the Princess.

ward attorney l.. NJ. Sheperd for the

pare brief or TO appear i'm person. Jus

torney had moved TO have his case in the
other court postponed. but there was no in
formation on that point. Mr.. Sheperd said
that McKane hitherto had been represented
by two other attorneys, while Mr.. Griffin
has played silent part in his case, but no
explanation OF the failure of his colleague

Now it is known beyond all question that
the Republican State convention tomorrow
will bring together more Republicans than
have ever before assembled at one time with
in the State. There is no longer any doubt
that the convention will bring seven thou
sand or eight thousand Republicans to the
city. This is evidenced by the strength
of the vanguard yesterday. The corridors
on the parlor floor of the Denison and the
lobby were jammed all day yesterday with
candidates and their friends who were
pressing their claims upon such of the del
egates as We're present. Yesterday morning
all of the candidates opened headquar-
ters. Those of \. c. Daily. Of Lebanon,
candidate for Auditor of State, and Robert
J. Loveland. of Peru, candidate for Attorney
general, are on the ground floor, while all
of the others are on the floor above The
furniture, except tables and chairs has all
been removed from the halls and rooms
this floor and the carpets are covered with
canvas All the headquarters are plentifully
placarded with signs announcing that such

AN OUTRAGEOUS ATTEMPT.
Certain Effort to Sound Candidates
for Supreme Judge on Litigation.


for Supreme Judge Litigation.
An interest that has been seeking an
advantage through certain nominations is
one that is interested in prospective liti-
cation that will come before the Supreme
Court. Yesterday during the day it cropped
out that persons having an interest in this
litigation had representatives, here seeking
to get at sort of an understanding
as 10 what they might expect from the
candidates for judgeships in the event that
they should be chosen by the convention
and elected. The representatives. present
wanted to secure some sort of a pledge
from the candidates in return for their sup
port in the convention.
During the day they sought to elicit the
support of a number of delegates to pre-
sent their demands to the judicial candi-
dates. but uniformly met with rebuffs, no
delegate desiring TO become interested in
such "a dishonorable and outrageous pro-
ceeding. Those of the delegates who were
approached declined to listen for moment
10 anything the representatives OF these
interests had to say, and the representa-
tives had given up the effort to secure a
pledge of any kind before the day had
