A plain, legitimate plan has been de.
vised, by which much can be done
without adding to ordinary domestic
expenses. Let every reformer read
and recommend the plan.
Acknowledgements from leading
POpulists all over the country have
come to us to the effect that the scheme

THE SIMPLE PLAN.
The simple plan of this grea. enter
prise Is this: The Peoples Supply Co.
is an incorporated body and is manu-
featuring various staple and package
articles OF most common CONSERVATION
which Populists in all parts of III.
country are buying and will continue

ouy these goods in preference TO 9TH

erN. ALL the profits on ALL the goods
manufactured and sold by this Com
Pany go to the POpulist cause. Popu-
lists have implicit confidence that the
Peoples supply Co. is thoroughly reli-
aDie and furnishes only the purest and
most wholesome articles the market
affords. There is no fear of ad uItera-
tion Tor profits. In the third place
every thing this company places upon
the market is accompanied with the
choicest gems Of Populis: literature.
In this way every package becomes a
messenger Of light, carrier of truth
TO the darkest hooks and corners Of So
ciety.

HON. J. STERLIN ] MORTON.
The Secretary Of Agriculture Guest
In santa Re This Afternoon.

Hon. j. Sterling Morton, secretary o'
agriculture and one of the brainiest
m tmbers of President Cleyeland's cab
met, is visiting Santa Fe this afternoon.
He arrived from Colorado Springs at
$50, p. M, travelling in special car and
being accompanied by the family OF MI
Paul Morton, his son, who is third vice
president and traffic manager of the A. T.
& s. F. system. The distinguished guest
was met at the depot by a delegation
of leading business men and was taken
on sightseeing carriage drive about
town. Mr.. Morton is on trip to the
Pacific coast. He leaves for the south to-
night and after short stop at Albuquer-
que tomorrow will proceed to Los An
gees.
Notwithstanding Secretary Morton's
very pronounced ideas on the gold stand
ard, he is receiving every courtesy at the
hands of western people who appreciate
what he has done to protect and promote
the live stock industry and his other
good work in behalf of the vests de-
velopmept, not the least of which was the

Committee on Eligibility in Cleveland
Conference Recommends Changing
Word Laymen to Lay
Delegates.

Cleveland, Ohio, May Tn the Metho-
dist conference to-day, DR.. W. F. kynett,
chairman of the committee on eligibility,
prese nted report that the committee is
agreed that the question of the eligibility
Of women to vote is a constitutional one,
and that the general conference has power
to interpret the constitution.
The committee recommends changing
the qualifications Of delegates by using
the words lay delegates instead OF lay
man, thereby making the admission OF
women legal; that the proposed amend
ment be referred to the annual confer-
ences of the following year, and that q
third vote of the general conference and
a three. e.fourths vote of the annual con
ference shall be required to enact this
recommendation into law.
The report says that inasmueh as the
question can not be judicially passed
upon, those having seats can retain them
without prejudice.
Byayote of 425 to 98 the conference
ado pted the report and referred the
woman question back to the churches TO
be voted upon again.

Action of the Federal Office Holders III
Michigan State Convention
Severely Condemned.
SENATOR VEST TALKS PLAIN AS USUAL
Chairman Garter Has Called Meeting
of Republican National Committee
at St. Louis June JO-Angry
Words Exchanged.

Washinton, May TT is very likely
that the senate will have the resul of the
late Democratic convention in Michigan
brought before it at an early day In
more or less sensational form. The con-
venton declared for the single standard,
despite the fact that majority OF up
ward of $50 delegates elected to that
ga,nering were chosen as free silver men.
The result was complete surprise in
every part of the country, but especially
to the silver advocates. The explanation
was found in the fact that the Democratic
officeholders in Michigan took the most
active part in controlling the action of
the convention In favor Of a sound money
platform and defeating the wishes of the
rank and file of the party. 1t is said that
a circular was issued addressed to all the
federal officehoiders in the state, urging
them to use every meals in their power
to commit the convention to sound
money declaration, and this circnlar was
signed 10y Mr.. Stevenson, who is Don
Dicklnson's law partner. Copies OF the
circular have fallen into the hands OF the
free silver men, and it is understood that
one of the silver senators has been fur
nished with specimen Of the document,
and will bring the matter to the attention
of the senate in the shape Of a resolution
providing for an in vestigation.
A DISGRACE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
In the senate this afternoon, during the
debate on the bond resolution, Mr.. Vest
declared that the Office holders and post
masters of Michigan controlled tho late
Democratic convention and put gold
plank III the platform. He said there was
OF the least doubt that the Democratic
party of the state was for free silver
The action of the Office holders, he de-
clared, was a disgrace to the American
people.
