MINNESOTA is SECURE
Can be Carried for Silver
Without Trouble.
THE situation In Idaho Hartman
says IL isan Outrage that Democrats
and PopuIists should Combine as
They Have Against Dubois.

Denver, Colo, Sept. I6-Hon. Charles
Hartman, congressman from Montana,
arrived in the city today with his family
and will leave tonight for Minnesota,
where he goes to open the free silver
campaign and aid in the election of
Congressman Tcwne. After his Mimi
esota work has been finished he will
place himse If at the disposal of Chair
man tones of the national committee.
In an interview he said:
81 have been in Montana ever since
nv return from the St. Louis conven-
ton. and am well satisfied with our
work. All silver parties are supporting
one set OF electors, which of course will
be in line for Bryan and Sewall. As to
the general situation in the country and
the chances of success for Bryan and
Sewall, would prefer not to express
myself on that subject until 90 east.
"The result of the Maine election does
not phase me or any silver man, as it
was foregone conclusion how that
state would go, and nothing was ex-
pected but a gold majority. All the
congressman from Maine for years pro-
fessed to be bimetalists, but their mask
is torn off now.
"When I passed through Utah I met
Senator Cannon and Congressman AL
len, and they told me there would be
no trouble about that state, as there is
an immense majority for bimetalism.
"As for Minnesota, am informed
through Jehn Lind, the fusion candi-
date OF the democrats, populists and sill
yer republicans, that the state can be
carried for silver with put little trouble.
I met him at St. Paul and it was there
that he made that statement
ain Idaho the situation is entirely
unsati factory. 1t is an outrage that at
this time Senator Dubois should be COM
PEELED TO stay at home and fight for his
political life on account of the opposi-
ton to him from the democrats and the
populists, when he should be engaged
in other fields in behalf of bimetaism.
In everything he has been the lieuten-
ant of Senator Teller, and that he
should be compelled to fight against
those whose battle he has been fighting
is shameful
an Idaho the fusion of the democrats
and populists IS for the purpose of de-
feating Senator Dubois, and there are
prospects that it may be successful. The
silver forces have agreed on a set Of
presidential electors, so this insures the
state being counted in the silver column
but it NAV be at the expense of Senator
Dnbois."

Denver, Col, Sept I6.-The McKin-
lev deciples are harbOring a number Of
special delegations from the east. The
latest trick Of these apostles OF the gold
standard is this: \ couple of well
dressed men appear in the mining dis
tricts and represent themselves as ex
pert men in search of properties for
eastern capital. They look over the
mines, get the prices and then hesitate
in buying.
The point LAYS in their hesitation, for,
If Mckinley Is elected, they say they
will buy, and if he is defeated all negO
tiations are to be declared off.

He explained these things in the scien-
tific jargon of the Agricultural Depart
ment, for the weather officials do not
know much about football.
There was a thunderstorm here at 1
o'clock Saturday morning, but even at
that hour in the night it didn't get
through unobserved. Mr.. Harmon has
it tagged and scheduled and he says it is
the very same thunderstorm that the
steamer Peru encountered away out in the
middle of the Pacific Ocean on January 8
and January 10. Mr.. Harmon knows
all about that storm, and he can recognize
it if he ever sees it again.
The rain for the twenty-four hours COW
cred in yesterdays reports was yery
heavy-nearly as heavy, in fact, as that
which, by computation the week before,
weighed 10000, 100000 tons. Some of the
figures, representing inches and fractions
of inches, are as follows:

THAT at Glen Ellen the rainfall was abour
three-ouarters of an inch greater than at
Santa Rosa and Ell Verano, a few miles on

This new and swift vessel will take the
place of the Meteor, which is at present
engaged in carrying the mail to the vari-
Gus towns located on the shores of this in
land sea.
1t is expected to have the new steamer
in service by the first of June, when the
summer excursion season to Lake Tahoe be-
gins The Central Pacific Railroad Com pany
has already made arrangements with the
Dlisses to run at least one special excur-
sion train a month to Truckee during the
summer. The train will leave here Satur.
day night and return on Monday, thus
giving the excursionists all of Sunday for
pleasuring on and about the lake.
In furtherance of their plans the Blisses
are also projecting an electric broad-gauge
railroad from Truckee to Tahoe, distance
of about thirteen miles, at cost of about
100000. Th electricity for the power neces-
sary to operate the road will be derived
from the magnificent falls that exist in the
vicinity of the lake.
Another feature of the grand plan to
make Lake Tahoe and its vicinity a great
and popular summer resort is the construc-
tion of fine hotel on the shores of the
lake near Tahoe. This will have accom-
modations for about $50 guests and will be
furnished with every requisite for con-
venience and comfort.

he is delinquent one quarter was adopted
by the board
A recommendation excluding member
from the rooms when he is denied the
privilege of taking books was lost.
The third recommendation, which read:
Shall the librarian accept the appllca-
tion for membership from a person whom
the board has ordered dropped from the
institute owing to non-payment OF dues?"
was adopted with the provision that he
pay up all bis past dues; otherwise the
librarian should not receive such appllca-
ton.
The passage of this latter recommends
ton occasioned quite lengthy discussion.
Chairman Hallidie before the amendment
authorizing the board to determine differ
emily in special cases was of the opinion
that much injnstice might be done
should the recommendation of the
committee directing the librarian
to refuse application OF mem bership
be accepted as it stood. He stated that a
member might for period of years be alb
sent from the institute and therefore be
unable to enjoy its advantages, and that
according to the recommendation he
would not be entitled to the privileges
unless the dues of those years.were paid.
After an exhaustive elucldatlon OF the
state of affairs by Mr.. Leggett his amend
ment to the recommendation was adopted.
The board by vote OF 5 to 5, one
member not voting, resolved not to make
the experiment Of introducing musical
books-such as instrumental pieces, songs
and operatic scores-into the library.
1t was also decided to keep the reading
room on the basement floor until the pop
ularity of its location there or on the
third floor was further investigated and
made clear to the Board.
The special com mmitteeS appointed to in
vestigate the National School OF Electricity
reported that department to be in salts
factory state and conducted in accordance
with the regulations of the board. 1t was
decided to grant an extension of privilege
to the school.
