pitch of enthusiasm. Ho made an earnest appeal for independent political action in lS96 anu occupied a good deal of time il- frustrating the necessity of breaking away from the old parties.
 His auditors were evidently with him, for every attack upon Secretary Carlisle, tho president or Senator sherman was greeted with a noisy demonstration, and every time he asked the crowd if they would remain with their old parties and continue the domination of the English money power he was greeted with a chorus of No"
 He paid his respects to the president and to Secretary Carlisle in very plain language, calling them traitors for their part in tho conspiracy to demonetize silver and fastcn upon the country tho hardship of n gold standard.
 Mir. Sibley paid an eloquent tribute to Andrew Jackson. the great Tennesseean. who achieved fame through his successful antagOnism of the money power as well as by his military career. He related the story of Jackson's refusal. when captured by the British as a boy to black the boots of an English officer, who struck him with a sword, leaving a scar that he bore until death. He gave it a political turn by exclaiming that there were Democrats in Tennessee who would black those boots today and lick the hand that struck them
 ''We must win this fight in 1S96," con tinued MT. Sibley, "or we lose it beyond the lifetime of my generation or tho one that follows it. You cannot put this fight of beyond 1896 and win it If the mon- ometallists win, then comes the retire ment of green backs, the forging of 800 QUO fetters on our industries There are other great questions to be considered, but they are insignificant as compared with this. If wo lose this fight in 1896, two great conditions are to be feared-repudiation or revolution. One or the other is sure to oome.''
 Mir. Sibley expounded the four political axiOms which, he said, contained the re- suit of his study of the money question. They were:
 First, double the volume of money, and you doublc prices; second, divide the vol tune of money. and you divide prices; sAird, double the volume of money, and you divide the debts; fourth, divide tho volume of money, and you double the Gebts.
 At the conclusion of NIT. Sibley's speech thero were persistent calls for MT. Bryan of Nebraska but that gentleman evident ly desired n moro favorable opportunity and more time in which to deliver his views upon the silver question, for he de- clined to respond. Then, upon invitation of the convention. MT. Charles s. Thomas of Denver occupied the remainder of tho lime Of the evening session.
 At the conclusion of Mir. Thomas speech tho convention adjourned until today.

aged II years, was shot and killed at
Boston Mills, 2 miles northwest of this
place, yesterday afternoon, by Newton
Walters, who, it is claimed, is insane.
Walters then shot George Cox, an
older brother, through the head, who
is expected to die at any time. He
then dragged little Jimmie to the
river, when he threw him in, and
from there went to the home of
the Coxs few hundred yards
distant, and demanded that
a sister of the boy, Dollie Cox, go with
him. He told her that her two brothers
were killed and were lying down in
the timber. After a terrible struggle
she succeeded in getting away from
him without being seriously hurt.
News was brought to Galena last even
ing and excitement is raging high. If
Walters, who ran away, is found by
the mob, there is but little doubt of
1ynching. Parties are now dragging
the river in search of the little boy.

Republicans Elect the Supreme Judge, but

MILWAUKEE, April 3.-Wisconsin
elected a justice of the supreme court
to succeed Justice Winslow, who was
the candidate of the bar and on gen
eral call for reelection. His opponent
was Judge George B. C1ementson, also
a candidate on a general call, as no
party nominations were made. While
the con test was therefore nomi-
nally non-partisan, party lines were
to some extent drawn, as Winslow
was democrat and Clementson re-
publican. The vote throughout the
state was light, and the returns indi-
cate the election of Clementson. Re-
publicans have elected mayors in the
following Wisconsin cities. Ashland,
River Falls, Delavan. Columb bus,
Marshfield, Mauston, Sparta, Wau-
