REPUBLICAN, LEAGUE,
It Meets in Annual session at Cleveland Preliminary Work.


 Preliminary Work.
 CLEVELAND, O., June 2O.-The eighth national convention of republican league clubs met in this city yesterday with a,00o delegates present. After prelinary work President Tracey read his annual address, in concluding which he advised the convention to adopt a platform wide enough, broad enough and strong enough to cover the whole country and meet the approval of the whole people.
 The feature of the day has been the silver fight before the committee on resolutions. The committee organized at p. ID. with Congressman J. E. Rob- inson, of Pennsylvania, as chairman and II. G. Knowles, of Delaware, as secretary. The organization was against the silverites, but the latter were not discouraged, and opened up the fight from the start. The commit tee was in open session till 6 o'clock, when on motion of Congressman Taw- ney. of Minnesota, it adjourned till 8 p. m. for an executive session, at which time a subcommittee of nine was to be announced by Chairman Robinson, and time given to the silver men and others for a hearing.
 The resolution of the silver men was offered; also other silver resolutions. The opponents of silver, through Mir. Hunter, of Missouri, offered the finan- cial plank of 1892; also the recent Ohio plank adopted at Zanesville last month. The compromise resolution, attracting most attention, was presented by Sen ator-elect J. NJ. Thurston, of Nebraska, as follows:
 We approve the declaration Of the last re- publican national convention that American people, from tradition and interest, favor b- metallism, and the republican part; demands the use of both gold and silver as a standard money, with such restrictions and under such provisions, to be determined, as will secure the maintenance of the parity of values of the two metals. so the purchasing and debt-paying power of the dollar, whether of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times equal" and refer the action for more specific declaration to the next republican convention, which alone has the power to bind the party or make plat forms and declare principles

ANew Plan Devised for Facilitating Bet
 ter Returns.
 WASHINGTON, June 22. - Secretary Morton yesterday affixed his official signature to the order for the adoption of the hcraldic seal of the department, which is the joint production of the secretary and Gen. Mcbride. Secretary Morton has decided to issue an order abolishing twenty-oue of the state agents of the agricultural department and providing for the reorganization oi the states in question into groups for the purpose of collecting crop re- ports, While all the details have not been perfected it is cortended that when the plans shall be completed the United States shall be divided into twenty.one districts. Seven of these will comprise only one state each, while the remaining thirty-eight states will be arranged in fourteen groups with an agent for each group or for each state, which constitutes dis trict in itself. It is still undecided in some cases as to what agents shall be dispensed with and no names have been given out. This step is one of the results of the plan for the Reorganization of the method of gath 'sring crop returns adopted by the secretary as the result of conferences held with the department statistician anl the committee appointed by the national board of trade, which met in ths city last winter. Steps have been taken also for increasing the mum Der Ot correspondents who are required to repOrt directly tO the denlrtment

WASHINGTON, June 22.-The assist ant secretary of the interior signed acquisitions upon the treasury depart. ment for more than S13, 900, 900 pension money to be paid out on July 4. In stead of drawing out the full amount of money needed for the quarterly pay. ment of pensions, the interior de- partment now makes requisi
 tion monthly and distributes the money, depositing it at the va rious cities, so that it will be easier both for the treasury department and better transmission methods to the various agencies. If the full S4O 0oO, 900 was sent out every three months if would be too large drain on the treas

SCHEME OF DiSTIllERS.
Proposition to Shut Down Temporarily
 Owing to Overproduction.


 LOUISVILLE, Ky, June 21.-A move ment has been inaugurated by several local whisky men which will be of the utmost importance to the trade in the state, and will affect the liquor inter- est all over the country. It is to have an agreement made by all the distillers of tine state to shut down their distil- leries for one year during the season beginning October next and ending July l, 1896. The cause of this move- ment is the general depression which has affected the whisky trade for some time. Since the general revival of business came whisky men have been expecting a better market, but it has continually failed to come, and the liquor trade is now practically stag. mated.

About one mile northwest of Boil
ivar, on the farm Of Col. Nuckolls,
may at this writing be seen some
thing new to our people. There,
Mr.. Louis A. Nuckolls, with large
force of men in thirty acre field,
is engaged in converting it into a
veritable Garden of Eden, planting
nearly 5000 fruit trees, mostly pear
and apple. These trees are from
Stark Bros. Nurseries and Orchards
Co., of Louisiana, Mo. We predict
for Mr.. Nuckolls source of income
from this new enterprise far beyond
anything heretofore attempted here.
This is prominently fruit region
as attested by the fine specimens
of fruit grown here, especially
the Kieffer pears. With a few
more such progressive men as Mr..
Nuckolls to plant commercial or
chards in our county, the cry of
dard times would soon cease.
