LOUISIANA POLITICS.
The Democratic Executive Committee Knocked Out the White Primary Proposition.
 McEnery Heard From.

New Orleans, Oct. 4.-The democratic executive committee of Louisiana met here today with a full attendance, and all the prominent democratic leaders from all oyer the state in attendance. Those friendly to Governor Fosters re- nomination held a caucus last night as did those opposed to him.. but the deliber- ations of both factions were secret. It was pretty obvious that the governors friends had things their own way.
 After the roll call and preliminary work of organization the committee proceeded to business.
 E. Howard McCaleb read resolution calling for the holding of a democratic primary election on day and place to be agreed upon. The list as proposed was seconded by Mayor Fitzpatrick. It was proposed to accept the last United States census as a basis of the population, one representative for every 2000 and fraction over 500
 MT. Boatner moved an amendment, making the basis of voting the vote cast at the election of March, 1892, on the white democratic vote cast, and that the result be faithfully abided in by all and the successful candidate receive the en- tire support of the party. A spirited de- bate followed, but MT McCalebs s resolu- ton prevailed by a large majority. This is a preliminary victory for Governor Foster.
 The following telegram was received and read by MT. Boatner:
 Monroe, La, Oct. "A. ITO Hon. c. J. Boatner, New Orleans. La.:
 ..To say that will accept the nomina- tion is equivalent to saying that l am a candidate for the same. I am not, and will not go before the convention as the candidate of any one faction of the dem ocratic party s. D. McENERY.'
 This telegram has had very depress- ing effect on the opposition to Governor Foster What they will now do for strong man to make their fight with is not known.
 The executive committee selected Shreveport IS the place to hold the state convention on December IS.

Pure rcoG.

Pure rcoG.
 Butterine is much abused product. As a matter of fact it is pure, sweet, wholesome, and infinitely preferable to ordinary country butter. A special correspondent of this paper recently visited the factory owned and operated by the Armour Packing Co.,, of Kansas City, manufacturers of the widely ad vertised Silver Churn Butterine. A five story building is perfectly fitted for the scientific preparation of this food product. Everything is spotlessly clean; all appliances are the latest and most improved, and every precaution is taken to secure the production of, an absolutely pure and wholesome food. All processes are under the direction of a foreign chemist who has made the skiliful combination of pure sweet fass the study of his life.
 Prof. Charles Chandler, of New York City, says: "The product is palatable and wholesome and I regard 1t as most valuable article of food.''
 Prof. J. s. w. Arnold, Medical De- partment, University of New York, says:, "A blessing for the poor, and in every way perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article of food"

WOOL GROWERS.
THEY ADOPT A MEMORIAL TO BE
PRESENTED TO CONGRESS.
What They Consider to Be Abso-
Iutely Necessary to Save the In.
dustry From Going to Pieces

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. THE
National Wool Growers association to-
day adopted the memorial to be pre-
sented to Congress next Monday for
the relief of the wooden industry The
document is a lengthy one, drawn up
by President Lawrence, of Ohio, and a
committee and was finally endorsed
unanimously. The memorial shows
that since the Mckinley act Of 1890 was
passed, the prices of wool have de-
clined in the markets of the world
some per cent, and that this created
the necessity for protective duties,
which did not exist even when the Nc
kinney act was passed. IT. asserts that
this act was intended to give a duty
OF IL cents per pound on unWashed
merino wool, double on washed and
triple on secured; that the wool manu-
facturerS succeeded in getting incor-
porated i'm the ACT of 1890 a provision
known as the "skirting clause which,
with the shrinkage in the securing of
Australian woods, practically defies the
protective purposes of the act of 1890,
SO that the provisional duty of II cents
per pound is only equivalent to cents
on Ohio washed merinoS in competition
with Australian WOOL and that the
duty of the act of 1890 OF So cents on
secured per pound of merino wool
affords a practical protection of only
1872 cents per pound. Also that the
importation of China wool, which COM
petes with merino wool and wool Of the
mutton breeds, was imported during
the last fiscal year to the amount of
rs, 100000 pounds at an import price of
little over cents per pound. This
is said to be a new source of supply
Of foreign wool, since the Mckinley
act was passed, and American WOOL
growers cannot compete with that wool
under the present rate of duty
The memorial, therefore, asks for a
duty on merino woods and woods Of the
mutton breeds Of sheep, of II cents per
pound on unwashed, double on washed,
and triple on secured, thus making but
one class of those two kinds of wool
1t asks for a duty of cents per pound
on third class woods without reference
to valuation.
1t declares that these rates of duty
are aTbolutely necessary to serve the
American wool industry from ruin
The memorial says that with 100 ma
jority in the House of Representative
in favor of protection, it cannot escape
the duty of speedily giving considera-
ton to this subject and quotes the
parag graph of President Cleveland's
message in which he says he is ready
to operate with Congress in providing
a measure of relief for the treasury
Sixteen states were represented in
the association.
The memorial is signed by William
Lawrence, president; Frank P. Bennett,
of the Boston Wool and Cotton Re-
porter; A e. Shepard, of Texas; Cal
vim Cowegill, of Indiana; T. B. vatron,
of New Mexico; B. L. Crouch, of Texas;
NJ F. Greeley, Of South Dakota; Joseph
Tweedy, of Texas.
These gentlemen compose the COM
mittee which will present the memorial
to Congress
Use High Grade Three Crown Bak-
ing Powder and your pastry will be

DENVER, Dec. 7.-Ex-Govefnor
James B. Grant, Of the Omaha q
Grant Smelling company. VINO mas
lust returned from tour OF lnspeclioh
among the mining camps OF Coioraoo'
SAYS that all are prosperous.
81 am compelled to believe that the
future of Cripple Creek" said he, far
surpasses the widest anticipatlons Oh
those who had the greatest hopes 1or
the future of Leadville. Cripple Creeh
will produce more gold IN 1le next
twenty years than any camp ever
known. Leadville has produced over
500. 600 900 in the last seventeen years.
When they have been mining seven
teen years at Cripple Greek 1T is safe
to say that the camp will have pro-
duced over $500, 0O0,0 900. There seems
to be a general impression that values
at Cripple Creek are confined to small
seams Of porphyry. The fact is that
in a great many cases there are great
lodges just as we'll defined as any lodes
in the San Juan country. AS to Lead
vile, look for a constantly increasing
supply of ore from there"
the governor had no hesitation in say
ing that the mines of the Cripple
Creek region will soon excel them both
in the money value Of it's products and
in actual tonnage.
Let me give you my reasons for
this belief" he said. 1.-THE mines Of
South Africa now average about 3d.
600, 600 per month; but their ores are
all very low grade. Out of the Oc-
tober yield the average mill runs were
but $3.50 per ton, and from the tailings
$3.50 per ton more was taken. This
shows the African ores to average
scarcely more than S11 per ton. Now
such ores in Cripple Creek are all
thrown on the dump. Indeed, any
thing less than 500 ores are thrown on
the dump. The quantity of low grade
ore-from $40 to $40 per TOMS prac-
tically without limit. The ores 'on the
Rand as the English mine operators
call the African country, cannot COM
pare with the quantity of Cripple
Creeks low grades. and its low grades
exceed the money value of the average
the Cripple Creek low grades will be
worked as chiefly and as effectively
after awhile as the ores of Africa AS
on evidence of the richness of Cripple
Creek ores the Omaha &, Grant Co.
has bought 10000 tons this year and it
avera ged S7S to the ton. On the Rand
they have fifty cyanide mills at work
here we have hardly any. When the
cyanide and chlorination mills are
erected in the Cripple Creek country
as plentifully as they are on the Rand
you may look for the largest annual
product Of gold from the Cripple Creek
country that history records from any
other camp in all previous time"
