1llinois Demoerats for silver.

T .
Tho Illinois Democrats are making
a gallant fight for silver and the re-
suit thus far is very encouraging.
There will be 1,O76 delegates ia the
convention which meets in June. OF
this number one-half have already
been chosen. OF those chosen 90 per
cent are for. free coinage. Three
counties have refused to call primar-
les and in each case the. county com.
mitttee was composed of federal Of
flee holders, but there will be mass
meetings in those counties and dele
gates sent by popular vote. When
the convention assemblies there will
will not be 5 per cent of anti-silver
votes in it.
There is no doubt that the conven-
ton viii adopt resolution declaring
that we demand the free and uninit-
ed coinage of silver and gold at ra.
ito of is to without waiting for per
mission or action of any foreign gov
eminent.
Chairman w. III. Hinrichson the
Illinois free silver leader, says: "The
action of this convention will be the
virtual reorganization OF the Demo
cratic party IN Illinois. Following the
behests of the convention the party
will be rebuilt from the township or.
ganization up, and after this it VIII be
impossi BILE for the politicians to de-
viate from the plain commands of the
people. 1t is possible that we may
lose some Democratic votes, but if SO.
we Will gain more than we lose. The
Republicans will straddle the CUES
ton as usual. There are free silver
Republicans in this State who would
not hesitate to vote free silver Dem
ocratic ticket, Because they would
think they were voting for, national
and personal prosperity, and under
such condition party would be for
gotten. .
"This movement is amatter of prin-
ciple and the result, of an honest and
sincere wish to promote the prosper
ity OF the people and the welfare of the
Democratic party of Illinois The
Democrats of this State are grounded
root and branch in the belief that
prosperity will not come permanently
until the mints Of the country are
open equally to the coinage of silver
and gold. There are ninety Demo-
Gratis in the present Illinois Legisla.
-ture and eighty.five of them are for
free silver. There are 119 Republic

and the vanquished cherished the
memories of their fallen comrades and
and have since perpetuated them by
strewing flowing the .emblems Of i'm
mortality, on their graves.
Z Out of this beautiful custom. in
-augurated by the Grand Army of the
Republic, has grown the observance
of May 3oth. Originally intended as
a Grand Army day it has grown be-
yond that limit and is now observed
by the people generally as day to he
devoted to the memories OF those who
have crossed the dark stream aud
wait for us on the other side.
E The Sovereign Grand Lodge of the

.ance of this day, ordered it's subordin-
ate Grand Lodges to set apart one
day of each year to be known as Odd
Fellows Memorial Day. In accord

dience to the command of their Grand
Master, will assemble at their hall ut

fence of the starry flag.
After the exercises in the hall, d
procession will be formed and proceed
to the i. o. o. r.. cemetery where the
graves viii be decorated in accord
adce with the ceremony adopted by
the Sovereign Grand Lodge. At the
conclusion Of these ceremonies, the
Odd Fellows VIII escort the Knights
of Pythias to their cemetery where
their exercises will take place.
All aFe.inyited to join in the OBJ
servance of this day SO full OF, va1u-
