A POPULAR DEMAND.
Plenty of Free Silver Sentiment in I'LL

Springfield, ILL.,, April 15.-The fol-
lowing statement was made by Chair
man Hinrichsen, of the Democratic
state central committee regarding the
Democratic state convention called for
June 5:
THE call for state convention to
consider the currency question, is meet
Ing with general approval from the
Democrats of the state. With the eX-
ception Of Senator Palmer, not single
prominent Democrat has expressed
himself as opposed to the movement,
unless Indeed it be members Of the ma
tional administration located at Wash
inSton. l am in receipt of letters from
nearly every county in Illinois, ap-
proving the action of the committee in
calling this convention, and predicting
that free silver delegations will be
sent to the capital on June 5. OF the
200 Democratic papers in Illinois, only
about ten are opposed to the conven-
ton, and less number than that are
opposed to free silver.
The movement so far as the state is
concerned outside Of Cook county is
overwhelmingly in favor of free silver.
In Cook county the men in the shops,
factories and railroad yards are al
most a unit on this question. The
movement takes in a number of the
prominent business men of that
county.
THE only object Of calling the con,
Vention was to get the Democratic

Aud tho Lone Limb Is Not tho Only
Reason for Government Re-
ward Either.

(From the Journal. Lewiston, Me.)
Samuel r. Jordan has just given the
journal an account of his life, which
in view of his extremely hard lot for the
past few years is of great interest:
II am 4S years old and have always
lived in New Portland. l enlisted in
the army in 1862 as private in Com
pany A, Twenty eighty Maine Nolun-
teers. My army experience injured my
health to some extent although |
worked at blacksmithing some part OF
the time, when suddenly, several years
ago, | was Frustrated with what able
physicians pronounced Locomotor
Ataxia. AT first l could get around
somewhat. yet the disease progressed
quite rapidly until / had hardly any
feeling in my legs and feet. they felt
like sticks of wood. and l grew so much
worse that l could not move for three
years without help, as my neighbors
and friends could testify. l employed
several physicians in my vicinity. and
elsewhere, and they all told me that
medicines would not help me. that
they could do nothing to effect cure
and that in time | should become en-
tirely helpless. l became discouraged.
i was great care to my wife and
friends. Shortly after ] met an old
army comrade, Mr.. All. Parlin. n resi-
dent of Madison Me, and he incidently
mentioned how he had tried DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills for severe case of
rheumatism and a spinal and malarial
trouble, that he had suffered with con-
sequent of his army life. and had been
greatly benefited by their use. By his
earnest recommendation l was induced
to try the pills. After taking them for
a time l began to feel prickly sensations
in my legs and a return of strength so
I could move them a little. After few
weeks l began to feel a marked i'm
provement in my condition. l soon was
enabled to walk around a little with
the help of crutches. After taking for
some time | can now walk without
crutches my general health is much i'm
proved and l have regained my old
time vigor. / can walk about and enjoy
life once more. for which l feel very
thankful. and this happy result is due
to the use OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie were first compounded as a
prescription and used as such in
general practice by an eminent
physician. So great was their effi-
cacy that 1t was deemed wise to
place them within the reach of all. They
are now manufactured by the DR.. WILL
iams' Medicine company, Schenectady,
N. Y, and are sold In boxes (never In
loose form by the dozen or hundred. and
the public are cautioned against num-
erous limitations sold in this shape) at
80 cents box or six boxes for 81. so. and
may be had of all druggists or direct by
mail from DR.. Williams Med. Co.

Steaks Too High,

New York, April 15.-The advance In
the price of meat, particularly western
beef, Is becoming seriously felt in New
York, and some of the hotels and res
taurants are already increasing their
charges for beefsteaks and roasts on
their bills of fare to correspond with
those they are compelled to pay in the
markets.
The wholesale dealers say that beef is
scarce in the West, and it Is difficult to
obtain the best quality. The retailers

are compelled to squeeze" their custo-
mers. But is seems scarcely reasonable
that the value of beef cattle should JUS
tify the increase in the retail price of
ordinary beefsteak, for example. from
25 to 35 cents pound, and of roasts
from 20 to 80 cents. Nor does there
seem to be any excuse for an increase
in the price Of mutton, when last fall,
after the removal of the duty on wool,
the Western farmers were Offering their
sheep for rs cents a head.

WAITE AS AN EDITOR AGAIN
The Ex-Govsrnor at the Head Of . New
Paper.


Denver, April 14.-Ex- Governor Davis
II. Waite is about to re-enter the field
of journalism and edit a weekly news
paper. Mr.. Waite was the editor and
proprietor ef weekly at Aspen before
he was elected governor.
His new venture is to be called "Our
Nations Crisis" Nelson o. McClees,
the ex-secretary of state, will be the
business manager and the paper is to
be published in this city. In the pros
pectus the following appears:
Hon. Davis II. Waite, ex-governor
OF Colorado, who has caused the cor
porations and money changers more
uneasiness than any man of the pres
ent time. has established weekly re.
form paper at Denver, Colo. 1t is
chock-full of good thoughts and terse
sayings on living issues. 1t would be
cheap at 81 per annum, but the price
is 80 cents. The governor is a broad.
liberal thinker; he delves deeply and
analyses closely; he is such forceful
writer that even those who differ with
him delight to read his paper. He
closed one of his recent speeches With
the following significant paragraph:
Our weapons are arguments and the
ballot-a free ballot and a fair count.
But If the money power shall attempt
to sustain Its usurpation by the "strong
hand" we will meet that issue when It
Is forced upon us; for 1t Is better, infin-
itely better, that blood should flow to
the horses brides, rather than our ma
tional liberties should be destroyed"

Chicago, April 15.-The Chicago Tel

will have in operation n schedule OF

month available, 1t is estimated, to at
least % per cent. of the total number
of Its present patrons. The cut is to be
accompanied by the creation of what
are called party circuits" n new de-
vice. General Manager Hibbard says
the rates will be on sliding scale.
Where there are two instruments on
the circuits the rent will be $75 yearly.
For three the cost will be $40, and
where there are four or more the rate
will be $50. BY this means he expects
to increase the residence patrons from
5000 to 5000.
In the business sections hundreds of
new subscribers are also expected to
come In on the party circuits"
