OKLAHOMA POPULIsTs
Met In Territorial cOnveatIoa at outh-
rte Yesterday-wm Fuse with
the nemOernem.

6UTHRIEs ". l., Aug. 0.-The
populist territorial eOngression-
al convention convened here at
2 o'clock this afternoon. Chair
man Vincent, of the territorial
central committee, in calling
the convention to order, outlin-
ed the plan for a union of the
silver forces to capture the
next legislature, which was en-
Enthusiastically received. j. F.
Todd of Lincoln county, who
was labor commissioner in Kan
sas under Lewelling, was elect
ed temporary chairman, and f.
j. Dunn of Woods county sec
retary. While the convention
was in session, a message was
received from the democratic
territorial central committee, in
session in this city, asking that
u conference committee be ap-
pointed. This was received
with cheers, as was every men
ton of fusion throughout the
day. The two committees are
in session tonight and have
practically agreed that the
nominee of the convention shall
be indorsed by the democrats,
the combined vote of the two
parties boing 5000 in excess of
the republican vote. This
agreement will make the contest
for the nomination a lively
one, as there are seven active
candidates, and as many more
dark horses. Many of the dele
gates to the convention have
come frome 100 to 800 miles in
wagons to the convention,
camping out on the way.
The convention held no busi-
ness session tonight. There
was a public reception and en-
tertainment given by the bust
ness men of Guthrie. After a
parade of delegates and silver
men, there was a band concert,
an address of welcome by Mayor
Farqurson, and an entertain
ment of song by glee clubs and
local singers. While all this
was going on the convention
committees were at work. The
conference committee of pOpu-
lists is still in session, and has
come to no agreement as yet.
The populists are willing enough
to fuse, hut the want to name
the candidate for congress and
get most of the spoils, which
does not suit the democrats.
who are hungry for pie them
selves.
The populist and democratic
county committees were in ses-
sion all night last night and it
was agreed to fuse in this
county. The democrats will
nominate half the ticket; the
populists the other half, and the
whole be headed, Peoples free
silver ticket.s' The territorial
committees will attempt to car
~ this plan into effect in every

Deafness Cannot BE Cnled

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when IL Is entirely closed, Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out, and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
tian hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition OF the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrhl that cannot be cured by

Upon leaving the balcony, Mr.. and
Mrs. Bryan went to the main parlor
of the Clifton, where for an hour or
more they received the multitude that
had listend to to his address. 1t was
near midnight before they were en-
abled to get away and retire to their
rooms.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan attended
church at one Of the city churches
Their presence was not announced
for the obvious reason that IL would
draw an inconvenient crowd of curious
people.
The remainder of the day was spent
in quiet retirement and rest for the
journey eastward, which was Sunday
at 11:30 p. m. over the Pennsylvania
road to Pittsburg.

A Very Economical County.

1t is Benton and hereafter all
officials must pay their own deputy
hire. The county court at its recent
session determined not to make an
allowance for regular 'deputy hire,
but to allow the clerk 81 per day for
one deputy for each day that the cir
cult and commissioners be in session,
and to also allow said clerk 81 per day
for each deputy In making up the tax
and delinquent rolls, and to allow the
sheriff $3.50 per day for two deputies
while the jury is in attendance on the
circuit court. This will be hard on
the sheriff and clerk as ithey cannot
do the work alone. The Times has
investigated the matter of deputies
for sheriffs In the different counties
with the following result: Baker and
Union each'one at 81, 200 and one at
$500; Wasco and Grant each one at
81, 200; Douglas, Malheur aud Morrow
each one at 81, 1000; Clatsop one at
81, ,26O, one at 5000; Jackson one at
81, 500: Harney one at 5000: Linn, Polk,

ouenter of conventions. They crowd the
hotel corridors. All of them are debaters
with strong convictions, and they take
into their confidence all within the sound
of their voices The fact that few of the
delegates are young is another noticeable
feature OF the assembling Popuafsts. Most
of the whiskers are dotted with gray,
many of the delegates are far into the sere
and yellow, but they are full of fire and
enthusiasm. 1t is not believed that over
half of the delegates are yet ON the ground.
In case Bryan is nominated or Endorsed,
Chairman Jones has agreed that the Pop
ulists shall have two representatives in the
national committee and the silverites one
representative The two southern men
suggested for vice president, in the event
of a compromise which would give the
Populists place on the ticket, are Judge
Walter Clark of North Carolina and Colo
mel Mimms of Tennessee. The difficulties
in the way of accomplishing such com
promise are generally recognized as almost
insurmountable, and this scheme was in a
measure abandoned. The indications that
the compromise and Bryan factions were
getting closer together continued, and the
general belief among the best informed
on the inside was that the situation would
clear before the convention begins, and
that the nomination of Bryan was reason
ably certain.

A Little Queens Dress.

Children abroad are never overdress

until old enough to enter society, says
Table Talk In evidence of this is a
pretty story of the little Wilhelmina,
queen of Holland, on her recent visit to
Queen Victoria. A drawing room was
held, but because of her extreme youth
she was not allowed to be present, her
mother, the queen regent, representing
her. The youthful sovereign was much
interested in the English court and very
anxious to witness its ceremony and
splendor, and by the indulgence and
planning of Victoria this was accom-
plished We are told that in simple
white gown the future queen of the Meth
erlands sat in distant window, herself
unseen, but beholding with shining eyes
and clasped hands the wonderful pa
geant of beauty, magnificent toilets,
plumes and jewels as it passed before

Republican Campaign Plans.

MILWAUKEE, July 20.-Henry G. Payne,
Wisoonsins member of the Republican
national committee, who has returned
from an important conference in Cleve-
land, says that the Chicago headquarters
of the committee will be opened in a short
time in the Auditorium building. Chair
man Hanna will give his time between
the New York and Chicago headquarters
but Chicago will be the main headquar-
ters, as it is near the center of the political
contest.
New York will look after all campaign
matters in New England, eastern and coast
states as far as Florida. Chicago will look
after everything in the states of the Ohio.
Mississippi and Missouri valleys and
evTything west and south to the Pacific
coasts, including Kentucky, Tennessee and
Alabama.
All the literature of the campaign will
be handled at and sent out from Chicago.
The committee proposes to make strong
fight. The members feel like making
every effort possible in covering the entire
ground Of the campaign as fully and
thoroughly as it can he covered.
The main question now confronting
voters is the new one in regard to the
money standard. On this issue there
seems to be an uprising regardless of party
lines. Fully 80 per cent of the Democratic
daily newspaper circulation of the country
north and south has repudiated the free
