Iowa Dem osrats Endorse the National
Monetary Plank # 1892.

DIES MONIES. IOWA. April 2i-One
hundred Democratic leaders of the State
and the State Central Committee held
a conference here this afternoon, at
hich the silver question was the rrin-
cipdl topic of discussion. The reports as
to the sentiment IN different parts OF
the State. as well as the views OF those
present, differed widely and the debate
al times became acrimonious but re-
suited in the final adoption Of a de.lara-
ton that 1T IS the sense of this con-
ference that the two monetary metals
should be kept at a parity"
To this declaration was ad led at the
request of s. b. Evans, OF Ottawa. repre-
senting the moderate silver men and
without objection from the antagonistic
wing OF 1.-THE party the modification
without discriminating against either
metal in the matter OF coinage"
Thus practically reaflirming ne national
Democratic plank of 1892. The conference
also voted in favor OF holding The State
convention after the Republican conven-
tion, and the committee accordingly to-
day named August Ish as the date. and
Marshalltown as the place. The date is a
compromise. the extreme silver men de-
string an earlier convention ana the ex-
treme gold men a very late one, I'm order
to give what they term the present sill
yer craze" time to exhaust itself. The
conference was a representative one so
far as party leaders are concerned, al
though the free silver men declare that
the rank and file OF the party wherein
their strength lies were not proportionate-
ly represented. and promise TO make a
better showing I'm the State convention.
When a vote was finally reached on
the question OF whether the Democratic
convention should follow or precede the
Republican convention the advocates OF
late convention won by a vote OF 70
to 20.
Although the free silver men promise
a fight. the result of to-day's conference
is taken to indicate that Iowa Demo
Gratis IN convention will endorse the
national monetary plank OF 1882, and the
party leaders will interpret II In accord
ance with the views OF the administra-
ton.
