Leans Adopt Resolutions.
ABOUT The SOLID SOLDIER VOTE
union for Crystallixlng the Vote Of
Members-A Convention for
Money ON = Gold Basis.

LEXINGTON, KY, April 24.-The re.
publicans Of Woodford county, Senator
Blackburn's home, have met his ultra
silver interview with the most radical
utterance heard this year from anti
free coinage ranks. In their conven'
ton to select delegates to the state
convention they declared OF length in
unequivocal terms for "a single gold
standard" with only one dissenting
vote. Following Is the full text Of the
resolutions;
Resolved, That sound and stable currency
Il one Of the chief supports Of constitutional
government and is absolutely indispensable X
nations commerce, both at home and abroad
Civilized nations have long since adopted thu
metals, silver and gold, as the best foundation
tor such currency. Enlightened statesman
ship has decreed that 1t was impossible tt
maintain the two metals on parity, and thai
gold should occupy the higher place and was
the only possible substantial basis for ma
tional currency standard.
Resolved, That we regard oil efforts to force
bimetsllism and the unlimited coinage or the
so-oalled free coinage Of silver upon the gov
eminent as fraught with dire disaster to ma
tional credit and to the material interests Of
the business community; ind as republicans
we pledge our influence and support to such
measures o. will aid in the maintenance of the
single gold standard as tho chief cornerstone
Of our national monetary system.
Only one man protested, and he said
he desired to 60 on record as bimet'
ellist The action Of the Versailles
convention has created a political SEN
sation as II Is much more radical ut
terance than the republican state con-
vention was expected to make, II is
considered the rallying cry Of opposi.
ton to Blackburn and free silver, as 1t
starts from the senator's home.

cation Of the call for the national SOL
diers' reunion to be held here on June
"A and Is next and the political tone
injected into the document by the ma
tional committee to the effect that the
men who saved the government should
be o factor in It's administration, and
that the time has arrived when they
should get together, formulate their
principles and make their demands,
has already resulted in an avalanche
Of letters pouring down upon the pro.
moters Of the reunion from veterans
all over the country. Many Of these
deprecate any effort In the direction Of
their mixing sentiment with politics
or of mixing up the ex-soldiers Of the
war, as such, in political movement,
but the majority commend the call and
re.echo Its sentiments.
The national committee gives out the
following. in response to letters
from every quarter asking for the
basis or plan Of representation, the
following instructions are given;
Every state is expected and requested
to hold state convention for itself
on May 80, and there and then

of Honduras has promised to extradite
A. K. Ward, the alleged Memphis en-

criminals from America. 1t will be nee
essary for the state of Tennessee to send
an officer to Honduras for Ward. as the
federal government has no fund for that
purpose TO be used in state cases.
