Matters Considered at the Annual Meet
 ing.
 Chicago Times Herald.
 An adjourned. annual meeting of the Pennsy1yania fColonization sociey was held at 92O- Walnut. street yesterday morning. President Robert B. Davidson presided, and the meeting, which was the seVentieth anniversary of the Pennsyl- vana society, assumed an interesting phase when letter from United States Minister Heard and an addition to the report of the secretary of the Inter- national Migration society of Alabama were read Both documents bore testi- mony to the good of the work done by the emigration society. The report stated that during the year the interest in colonization of Liberia has vastly in- creased and that the society expects to send out another expedition in 1896, for which 1000 names have already been en- rolled, and there are many more through out the south who have sighitied their desire to go. The document refuted the report that of those sent out on the Hor- sa last year number were dissatisfied. Only two malcontents were found in the whole number, and but one or two have died. The latest yadvices show that the emigrants are wellscontented and indus trous.
 The letter of Minister Heard stated that all the people coming there have to do is to clear off the brush from the land allotted them, plant their seed and an abundant cropis soon gathered. Says MT. Heards The land allotted them is more productive than any in the United States. A garden. of .cassada. potatoes. cabbage and eddoes can be planted and will yield in four and six months. Palm oil can be had daily for song''
 At the close of the meeting the follow ing officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Robert B. Davidson. vlce-presidents, Rev. Dr. William E. Schenck, Rev. pr. w. F. Paddock.

FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
Reposing at the Bottom of the Escamba River That Might Be RecOveredby Float
 ing Saw-Mt

Pensacola News.
 'I'll tell you what would be paying in Westment," said 9 well-known business man at Reilly's yesterday.
 , "What?" from a half dozen interested listeners.
 "A fioa ting saw mill for operation on the Escambia river" was the reply.
 General interest at once increased, and the gentleman who had taken the initia- hive was pressed for a further elucidaton of the subject. He continued, practically, as follows:
 Well, you must know, it is a good many years since the shipment of timber and lumber from Pensacola was begun. During all these years logs for manufac- ture by various mills cutting for this market have been hoated down the Es- cambia river and from time to time large quantities of them have sunk to remain on the river bed ever since. From above Brewton to Ferry Pass the bottom of the river is covered with them, and in some places 6Suok- for instance) they may be found 30 feet deep. A light draught floating saw mill, with facilities for talk ing up the logs, could be opera ted on the river, and to my mind there's mint in the effort for the party or parties who may engage in it.
 These logs only require a slab 10 be taken from each of their four sides to en- que lieiH lO HOdt, anu oHSe ichuci SN floatable the marketing of them would be a comparatively easy matter But little expense would be attached to the run ming of the mill, and the profits in the presently advancing prices of timber would be simply incalculable.
 To engage in this business, however, one would have to acquire the right to do so from the owners of the logs, all of which bear their owners private marks; but that could be readily and cheaply obtained. If I'm not mistaken the logs in the upper river, as far down as (say) Bluff Springs are owned by George c. Harold at Brewton. Below that and to Molino. Judge A. M. McMillan of Pine Barren is interested, and from Moline 10 Ferry Pass. the proprietor would proba- bly be found in the person of E. r. Skin- ner of Gscambia.
 A conservative estimate of the logs now Lying in the bed of the Escambia is $5, 100000. These are big figures but they are by no means an exaggeration. And, you may take my word for It, the man who takes advantage of the opportunity as suggested. will be millionaire in short order.-Pensacola News.

Remonetize Silver
 Manufacturers Record.

Manufacturers Record.
 Secretary of Agriculture Morton. iD a recent statement, showed that the value of our exports in the last fiscal year was $85, 900 less than the preceding year and $40, 000, 900 less than in the year 1892 93. This falling off was not in quantity. We really sent abroad more of our labor product, but we got less for it. As the secretary himself explained, we exported S34, 900, 900 more pounds of cotton, but ob- tained for 1t $6.000,O0O less.
 "If the average export price of cotton for the fiscal year 1S94-95 had been the same as for the preceding year the value of the United States cotton exported would have reached $277000.000 Instead of S205. 900. .OO0. During the same period. had the price remained standard. our bacon would have brought $42,000.00 instead of $3S. 100000, and our lard S4S.0oo.ooO in stead of S37. .000.0 .000."
 That is to say, on three articles of American export, we lost $S2.000,00O be- cause the prices had fallen. The harder the farmers work the less money they earn. The more American wealth thena- ton sends to other lands, the smaller the amount of debt it pays. MT. Morton's remedy for this evil growing more de- structive year after year. is to apply American inventive genius to American farm management" But the sole expla- nation of the fall Of prices offered by theI secretary and his friends is that inven- tive genius has already made farms more productive How much farther is 1t to go? Is machine 10 be invented that will surpass the self binding reaper as that surpassed the sickle? Is the fertil- ity of the ground to be made two-fold greater? If so, how2 It is easy to pro- pose remedies; but no man who is capa- ble of forming an opinion upon the sub- ject can seriously believe that a remedy lies in that direction. There is but one remedy within reach; 1t is to stop the up- ward movement of gold by remonetizing silver.

A SILVER CONFERENCE.
Leading Democrats of Tennessee Met in Nashville and Decided Upon Plan
 of Action.

Nashville. Nov. 6.-Representative sil- yer delegates met here today for the pur- pose of inaugurating a movement for the organization of that element of the party and beginning a campaign. It's action is found in the report of com mittee of five, of which Congressman Richardson was chairman, which states:
 Recent elections and events in the United States have revealed the gravity of the political situation certainly With respect to national and probably with respect to state affairs, and that inf1u- ences have fastened. upon and are en- deavoring to control the democratic par ty, whose success means the defeat of that party and the submersion of the principles of finance and government for whom party has always stood among the first and most important of those principles the free and unltm- ited coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 and independently of the actions of other nations of the world; and that the organized hostility to this principle. which has aggressively ar srayed itself against and sought to en- lgraft itself upon tie democratic party. has made an issue which ought not to be longer adjourned, ands that the party should be appealed to and organized upon this issue"
 A committee of five was appointed to prepare an open address to the people of Tennessee in accordance with these views. James J. Head was named as chairman of the committee to have full power in effecting the organization.
 Among those present were United States Senators Isham G. Harris and w E. Bate, Representative J. D. Richard son. Ns.D. Cox, John McDearmond, Con- gressmen B. H. Enfoe, R. A. Pierce and quite large number of members of the Tennessee legislature.

Housekeepers Want the Best Food.

What Scientists say:
 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: 1T consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, a blessing for the poor, in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of its manufactlre is perfect. Re- cent chemical experiments show that in nutritive and digestive properties Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to the best creamery butter; while in keeping quality Silver Churn Butterine is much superior.
