FARMERS NATIONAL CONGRESS.
Sixteenth Annual Session Begins n
Enthusiastically About Sew
enty Persons Present.

Indianapolis-Only About Sew
enty Persons Present.
Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 10-The sixteenth
annual session Of the Farmers National
congress began at 1890 a. m. to-day in the
Indiana hall Of the house of representa-
tives. There were about seventy persons
present. but the later sittings are expected
to show a larger attendance.
The general opinion of those in
terested In the congress was that the meet
ings should have been held before rather
than after the presidential election and that
had this been the case the attendancewould
have numbered several hundred. The men,
bers present were representative men and
leaders in the cause Of agriculture. The
congress was called to order by the pres
ident, B. +. Clayton, of Indianola, Ia.
Mayor TaRgart delivered an address of
welcome. Response was made by the Sec
retary. J. NJ. Stahl. of Chicago. Governor
Matthews then welcomed the congress on
behalf OF the state. President Clayton was
then introduced and delivered his annual
address.
The afternoon session began with the
reading of a paper by Judge William Law
renee. Of Ohio, discussing means whereby
the Farmers National congress can be-
come a greater political power in aid OF
nop-partisan legislation. He urged thor
ough organization on behalf of the farmers
in all sections and a cooperation on all
questions of non-political importance. He
urged, incidentally, a restoration OF the
wool tariff. His paper and thoughts met
with general favor. One thing ne espe-
cially urged was fight to reduce the sal
aries of county officials, as a means of low
ering the taxes. At the conclusion of the
discussion of Judge Lawrence's paper,
John @. Offut. of Indiana, offered the fol-
lowing resolution. which was Immediately
referred to the resolutions committee with
out action:
Whereas. The products OF the farmers
are measured by the amount of redemp-
tion money that is in circulation; and,
Whereas. The price of the farm prod
Ucts is below the cost of production;
Resolved. That this Farmers National
congress is in favor of the equal use of
both gold and silver coin as money of ulti-
mate redemption and that We do request
thu incoming president of the United States
to call conference of nations that arc
willing for the use of both gold and silver
money with the free and unlimited COIN
age OF both gold and silver in a ratio to
be agreed upon"

W. DANA PERKINS.
Funeral Yesterday of the Late State
Librarian.

The funeral of the late State LII
brarian, w. Dana Perkins, took place
yesterday from the Cathedral, and that
building was we'll filled with friends
Of the deceased. The funeral was prob
ably more largely attended than any
in the city since that of the late Albert
Hart, who died last spring.
The services at both Cathedral and
cemetery were conducted by Rev.
Father Walsh, and were very impress
sive. At the Cathedral Father Walsh
spoke ably and impressively Of the de-
ceased, enumerating his public sevices
and their value to the State and the
people.
One by one, Father Walsh said, the
angel Of death was carrying away the
great and good, and his last mark had
been w. Dana Perkins. He had lived
honorably and upright, was good cit
izen, had conscientiously and carefully
discharged the duties of the positions
he had held, was honored and beloved
by all who knew him, and many
tongues and hearts in the land were
left to tell of the good deeds of Dana
Perkins, and over each tale told would
hover the white wand of peace.
The deceased, said the speaker, was
strong in his love Of God, and love OF
God meant love and charity to man.
kind. He had made the world brighter
and better for his sojourn on earth ;
he had aided the widow and protected
the orphan; 1t had been his to give,
and he gave freely, and having con-
cluded his pilgrimage on earth, his fu-
tCre lay In the hands of God.
The floral pieces were many, varied
and of exceeding beauty. One was a
large armchair bearing the words: I'm
memory of friend" Another was a
bank of pure white blossoms, on which
the words 'Our true friend" stood out
in relief. Still another was a large
anchor, and another crescent repre-
senting the thread of life snapped be-
fore the work laid out by the departed
had been completed. A beautiful urn
was among the pieces. also tablet
containing the initials wv. D. p"
The heads Of the State Departments
and employees attended the services
both at the Cathedral and cemetery In
a body, wearing badges appropriate to
the occasion. Forty carriages followed
the remains to the grave, and hundreds
of people went by means Of other con-
veyances. The family Of the deceased
have the sympathy not only Of those
present, but Of the Inhabitants of the
entire city in their bereavement.

THE GREAT REGISTER.
An increase of Twenty Thousand In
Two Years.
(From the San Francisco Post.)

(From the San Francisco Post.)
The great registers Of the various
&C cunties of the State are completed,
and, when they are footed, show the
aggregate registration in this State to
be 361, loZ Two years ago the highest
vote cast for the highest candidate on
all tickets aggregated 2S7, ,S45. There are
therefore 73,901 more names on the
great registers to-day than the vote
cast In 1894. In making forecasts Of
the election, both gamblers and proph-
cts will do well to remember that if
the full vote of the State is cast there
will be 73,9O7 more votes in the ballot
boxes at the close of the election on the
Sd of next November than were found
there two years ago. The question
arises, how are these 73.907 votes di-
vided upon the alignment of parties in
the proportion observed in the election
Of two years ago.
San Francisco had a registration of
6S, ,54S In 1894 and cast So 643 for Gov
ernor, or 5000 less than the registra-
tion. It seems almost inconceivable
that 5000 qualified electors stayed
away from the polls on election day,
and yet were so much interested In the
approaching election as to take the
rains to make their appearance at the
registration Office, make the necessary
affidavit and see that their names were
placed on the great register.
Some interesting facts disclosed by
the great registers of the counties Of
the State remain to be noted The
counties that have made the most nota-
tle increase In voting population are:
San Francisco 1862 increase Alameda
1000, Los Angeles 1894, Mendocino
900. Orange SAT, San Bernardino /. 100.
San Diego 1900, Santa Barbara 1000.
Many other counties have Increased
from 200 to 400
The notable instances OF decrease I'm
the registration are as follows: Amador
27O, Butte 1874, Colusa $50, Contra
Costa 365, Humboldt $50, MADEIRA 3b1.
Marin 140, Monterey 300, Sierra 3O4,
siskiyou POI, Stanislaus 48S, sutter
S13, Yolo 400.
The aggregate increase Of registra-
tion in the State is 23,059, the aggre-
gate decrease 4,161, leaving the net in
crease in the State 19,943, or practi-
cally 10000. Allowing five inhabi-
tants to the voter and the increase OF
10000 names on the great register Of
the State would indicate an increase
Of population OF 1OO ZOO in two years
This allowance of five Inhabitants to
every voter is, however, very hypothet-
icaL If that ratio is justified, Los An
geles County, with Al 200 names on the
great rigister, has zoe, 900 inhabitants
We are fully prepared to affirm that
there are not 100000 people In that
county.
The whole registration Of California
is a puzzling paradox. and the most
ir comprehensive feature Of 1t is the
vast disparity between the number Of
names on the great register and the
number of votes cast.
