LAUGH AT WARNER.
Illinois Men Say He Is Not a Dark
Horse.

Horse.
CHICAGO, July 4.-The Boies men have or
ganiZed for vigorous missionary campaign
among the uninstructed delegations. They
have divided their forces into squads of work
ers and each squad has been assigned to do
duty at certain delegation headquarters. These
missionary squads will sendeavor to find out
the sent 'ment of the delegates as to their pres
idential choice and il possible get the delega-
tions as a body-to give an audience, when
speakers will be furnished to plead the cause
of the Iowa candidate.
H. c. Evans.- delegate from Ottumwa,
To-, said last night that the Iowa men
claimed to have more votes for Boies than
Bland's followers claimed for him. tThe ma
jority of our votes,' he said, are from unin-
structed delegations, and we are not at lib
erty to quote them. We merely have their
assurances that they will vote for Boies. "
Continuing, he said that ii was hard to judge
at present just what the actual strength OF
any particular candidate is. There was SO
few here as yet and the majority of them
seemed to be at sea. This gave encouragement
to the Boies forces to believe they could ac-
gard to the Illinois delegation, he did not
know what to make of it. 1t seemed to be
their policy to say nothing as to their presi-
This leads some of our men to the belief, .
he went on to say that a dark horse Is to be
sprung upon the convention. Who the dark
horse will be no one has been able to deter
mine with any degree of certainty. Some OF
the leaders are of the opinion that the dark
horse will be ex-Congressman A. J. Warner,
of Ohio" The Boies men, he added had not
been able to learn anything definite as to the
Warner candidacy
Delegate William Prentice, who made the
speech nominating Gov. A1tgeid at Peoria, did
not take any stock in the Warner idea. Per-
sonally he favored Gov. Boies, and thought
he would be TIE best man to nominate. How
ever, he had not ana would not for the pres
ent pledge himself to any one The main
thing now was to concentrate the silver
strength and organize the convention He
did not think there would be any great diff
Guilty in doing this,z as the silver men had
such a big majority. They would certainly
object to Senator Hill for temporary chairman
He was also confident that platform would
be adopted that would declare for free silver
and that free sslvc- would be made the issue
of the campaign fhe people were all talking
money, and it would be folly to attempt to
foist the tariff upon them as the main ISSUE
AT the illinois headquarters the idea of sup
porting A. J. Warner as a dark horse was
laughed at as absurd. None of the delegates
had even thought Of such foolish idea.

SEVERAL DAYS.
Work of the Convention VIII No,
be Rnilroaded.


CHICAGO, July 4.-There is still much dis
cussion among delegates as to the time which
viii be covered by the convention. There is
general desire to have the time abbreviated
as much as possible, but there is no longer
much talk, as there was few days since.
OF being able to reduce the time to one day.
On the contrary, the belief is now quite gem
eral that the convention will be in session
at least three or four days. Some of the
silver men contend that there should be no
discussion OF the platform when brought in
but that the previous question should be
demanded Immediately upon the presenta-
tion Of the report.
Others of the silver leaders say that no
such precipitation as this would be neces-
sary and deprecate the disposition to cut off
reasonable debate. 1t appears now that this
contention will prevail, especially If the gold
men prove to be reasonable on the question
Of the temporary organization. If the silver
men fail to have a general caucus before the
beginning Of the convention, as appears
probable the chances are that there will be
several ballots for candidates.

SILVER UNITY.
Senator Jones Says 1t Is the I'm
pOrtant Thing.

Z CHICAGO, July 4.-Senator John p Jones,
of Nevada is among the recent arrivals. He
is ranked as Populist, but he has been cir
culating among the silver Democrats freely
He tells them that If they will only nominate
silver man upon whom all the silver forces
can unite. he will be for the nominee
What we want" he said, sis the unfit
cation of the silver forces, and that cannot be
secured except upon candidate who will be
acceptable alike to silver Democrats. silver
Republicans and Populists l don't care as
to the name of the man, but he must be
such as to render 1t unnecessary for the Pop
ulists and silver men to make a nomination
at st. Louis. We will make ourselves ridicu-
lous by having two candidates. Nothing
would please the gold people more than for
us to be thus divided. and / hope such a
thing will not occur. The Democratic party
has an opportunity now to put itself in condi-
ton to control affairs in this country for
forty years, but If it fails to avail itself of
the opportunity offered. it is doomed"
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-07-05

1t as they could carry the convention
without doing so. Gov. Boies was
ready to talk on general principles, but
refused absolutely to express himself
for publication on the present situation.
He is younger and better looking man
than any Of his pictures / have ever
seen would indicate, though he has
much of the plain farmer look about
him. 1t seemed to me that his broad
cloth suit was not agreeable to his feel
ings.
The Bland men are quite indignant
because Boies has come to town, they
say that Bland is too busy with his
crops and will not follow the example
of his competitor. They are even more
vcciferous in their claim than the Boies
men, asserting that Bland is the only
one who has any chance of success for
the nomination. At this time, the
Bland campaign is by far the most ag-
gressive. The Matthews men are con-
siderably more modest. They do not
claim the entire earth but they say to
other silver men If you will nominate
Gov. Matthews you are sure Of Indiana.
We will do the best we can for who
ever is selected but cannot guarantee
Indiana for anybody but Matthews,
and without Indiana the Democrats
cannot elect president.
NOT TELLER.
Among Democrats I scarcely hear
Teller mentioned. The seeding states

nearly all here urging Teller and / think

AGAINST GROVER.
AItgeId VIII Try to Insert a
Plank.

Plank.
CHICAGO. July Am effort will be made
to incorporate a plank in the Democratic
platform denouncing federal interference
with local affairs either by troops or in
junctinon of the United States courts. Gov.
Altgeld and his following will advocate such
plank, and they will bring all the pressure
they can to succeed. Gov. Altgeld came back
to Chicago to-day from Springfield and opened
up headquarters at the Sherman house. He
said he believed the plank denouncing fed
eral interference would be adopted.
1T is Democratic he said, "and every
true Democrat will support it. Illinois is
seeking no Office" he added, "and not urg-
ing the nomination Of any particular man. for
the presidency. All the Democrats of TIi-
nois desire is to see a pronounced silver man
nominated for the presidency, and to have a
pronounced free silver platform adopted.
They will be satisfied with nothing less.
They demand 1t and will fight for it." Re-
garding his choice for president the governor
would not go farther than to say he would
favor any pronounced free silver candidate
the party might nominate.
