SUPPORTS THE SYSTEM.
Chairman Barlow Tells of the Advan-
tages Derived From the Medium
of Exchange.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, May 12.-Chair-
man Charles A. Barlow of San Luis Obispo
is one of the most enthusiastic supporters
of the Di Bernardo labor exchange system.
He is employed in the Farmers Alliance
Touring mill of San Luis Obispo, and all
the product of the mill is disposed of
through the labor exchange.
81 was one of the strongest opponents to
the idea when il was first broached in our
neighborhood, he said yesterday; shut
its results from the very start were so
satisfactory that all my objections and
preiudices quickly disappeared.
"Our exchange at Arroyo Grande started
business of about $3.50 month and has
a reserve fund or stock of goods worth $3.50.
"Bnt the success OF the movement at
San Luis Obispo was much greater The
labor exchange there was opened two and
half months ago with about $400. It's
business last month amounted to $500,
and we shipped two carloads of -four out
of the town.
1--WE make it point to encourage ali
cooperative enterprises, but decline to
handle any of the product of the flour
milling trust"
"In what way does the producer derive
greater benefit from this system than I'M
world in which money is the medium of
exchange?" was asked.
This brought forth clear and full eluci.
datlon of the scheme in these words:
'ln disposing of his produce TO the ex-
change the rancher is allowed the whole
sale price, as shown by the current mark ct
reports; in making his purchases or tax
ing other goods in exchange for those he
has brought to the exchange he is charged
the retail price. The margin of profit that
results goes to pay the expenses of run
ming the exchange and of adding to the
stock of the exchange.
s4"When we have accumulated all the
stock that we deem necessary then the
price of the goods sold to the members of
the exchange will be reduced so as to leave
only enough profit TO return running ex-
penSes.
1--WE can thus never get into debt ard
the producer gets the highest possible re-
turns for his wheat, beans, chickens. etc.
as he is brought almost into direct con-
tact with the consumer.
ION depositing produce with the ex-
change certificate for the wholesale
market price of the goods SO deposited is
issued to the owner, and this certificate Of
value Expressed in dollars and cents) is
receivable for anything in the stock of the
exchange.
Accumulated wealth is represented by
these certificates of value, which are con-
vertible into coin at the option of the ex-
change, not the holder-iust the con-
trary rule, you will observe, that prevails
IN the present financial policy of the
Government.
Where an individual is desirous of OBJ
tanning cash for his goods we sell it for
MIN IN the open market, shipping to such
points as promise the best returns and
charge him small commits sion."

Saturday, the date to be determined at
Washington. He expects to be in Cuba
the first of next week.
Ihe Recorder says this morning: An
other steamer is being fitted out in this
country by Cuban patriots to follow the
Laurada, which left this port early Sunday
morning with a fiiibustering expedition
for Cuba. She will start in the next five
DAYS. The Laurada was the FIRST Cuban
nlouster whose men took uniforms with
them. Detectives have found out the tailor
VINO made the uniforms, a Spaniard. He
is making seventy-five more, which are to
be ready in the next four days. The fifty
one suits that the tailor made for the Lau-
rada men were for Porto Ricans, with three
exceptions. one American and two Gu
bans. All the suits he is making now are
for Porto Ricans.
The steamer which is to take them to
Cuba is now somewhere off the Connecti-
cut shore, taking aboard arms and ammu-
milton. She will take ten Hotchkiss guns.
which were intended to go on the Laurada.
and which are destined for General Col
lazo's artillery division, and large num-
ber of rifles and ammunition.
Some of the Porto Ricans who will go
with the expedition are compositors en-
ployed by a South American newspaper
near Park Row. Only last Sunday they
met in a Photographic studio in Third
avenue, where their pictures in groups
were taken. Their plans were to go as
in the Laurada's case, in groups OF four
or five, to Brooklyn pier, take tugs there
waiting them and be transferred to the
stream in the sound, but as the place of
rendezvous in Third avenue has been ex-
posed they were Instructed to meet some
where in Harlem, but they will receive no
information as to the locality until the
last moment.
Besides this expedition, which will start
in five days. the Cubans will send out the
Magnetic, which has been hired for SIG, 600
for two trips, and continue the prepara-
tions for the feet. The South Portland
and five other freight steamers will be
fitted out at Perth Amboy, N. j., and a
number of guns have been ordered from
Broadway firm. This firm represents
Connecticut manufacturers, whose fac.
tories are kept busy day and night filing
the orders for the Cubans Large orders
for machetes have also been placed with a
large Water-street concern.

TIRED OF DEMOCRATS.
G. Nj. Sutton of Colusa Relates Expert
ences That Caused Him to Be-
come a POpulist.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, May 12.-G. NJ.
Sutton of Colusa, though a Populist for
but four years, is thoroughly welded to the
cause, having been driven from the Demo-
cratic ranks by the adoption of the Ma
tional platform of that party at Chicago in
1892
''At that time" said Mr. Sutton, refer
ring to the date of his political change of
heart, 81 had $4,000 over and above my cur
rent needs, part In cash and part in prop
erty, outside of my eighty-acre ranch.
Since that time l have gradually gone be-
hind. though / have no bad or expensive
habits, and l now do not spend two bits
unless find it absolutely necessary.
81 am trying to educate my children as
white man ought to and thought that by
tn is time l would be able to move with nv
family to good school town. Instead we
all have to stick to the farm in order to
hold our own. Myself, my wife and our
children all have to put our shoulders to
the wheel again"
Then in Retrospective strain and with
view toward showing how disastrously
the Cleveland administration had affected
MS interests, he continued:
II came across the plains to Colusa in
1859 with 81 70 in my pocket and made
steady increase in my affairs till the Cleye-
land regime came in. Since then matters
have been getting worse for me and for all
my neignbors. Not only has the value of
land deprecated, but the prices of all
products have fallen. No more Cleveland
ism for me, and l am congratulating my
self that l bad the foresight to see the
evils in that Democratic platform of 1892
and to withdraw from that party at that
time"
The first lively discussion took place and
the first Populist yell was heard during
the discussion which followed after recess
as to the apportionment of delegates to
the National Convention.
The chairman prov Sked another yell
and pattering of hands by his suggestion
that when a question was all one way il
was sim ply folly to waste time sin blow
ing off SO much gas"
J. A. johnson of San Francisco became
Immensely" popular when he announced
that the San Francisco delegation was in
favor of giving equal rights to the interior
counties. 1t was decided that the basis of
representation in the National Convention
should be five delegates from each Con-

The midnight hours of an expiring Congress

alert, while the friends of the people, worn
out by the struggle, may be absent in the
early morning hours of danger.

expose the criminals engaged in this nefarious
work, which, if accomplished, will herald the
beginning of the downfall of the Republic

! Nat C. Goodwin, who is perhaps the
greatest comedian in the United States,
next to Joseph Jefferson, was passen-
ger on the Alameda, en- route to the
Colonies, where, with his company of
twenty people, he will give perform
-ances.
Mr.. Goodwin's success in the United
States has been Phenomenal, and he
goes to the antipodes for another world
to conquer. 1t is to be regretted that
arrangements. could not have been made
for a performance here, but Mr.. Good
win preferred to see the sights. 1t is
possible the. company will return to the
United States via Honolulu, in which
case the company will act.
In Mr.. sGoodwin's company is Miss
Emily Melville, the well known singer.
This was surprise to many OF her
friends as Miss Melville's triumphs
and work heretofore have been in
opera. She has, however, always best
liked and been most successful in those
operate characters which were good
acting parts. Miss Melville made her
debut as an amateur in ''Pinafore. She
stepped into the professional ranks in
the same opera. Afterward she took the
place of Clara Louise Kellogg and sang
in Madame Favart,' 1.-The Royal Mid
dy" and other operas.
About thirteen years ago she went to
Australia, and since then has been in
nearly all parts of the world. She was
for some time III South Africa and es-
tablished an academy in Johannes
burg. She returned to California last
September. arriving there from London
after a continental operate tour.

pcared to be q. part OF this Yelling OF
all things under, the clear, opal tinted
sky above was SO little like the hush of
rest and peace that he half yearned for
the outburst Of IA usketry aald tu1nult Of
attack that might dispel it. All that lie
had ever heard or dreamed of the in-
sidious south, with it's languid subleties
OF climate, and Of race, seemed to en-
compass him here.
But the next moment be saw the
figures he was waiting for stealing
towards him from the shadow of the
gully beneath the negro quarters.
Even in that uncertain light there
was no installing the tall figure, the
gaudily striped. cIinging gown and tur-
baned head. And then strange revul-
sion of feeling, quite characteristic Of
the emotional side of his singular tenn
permanent, overcame him. Ife was taxi
ing leave Of his wife-the7dream Of his
youth perhaps forever! IT should be
no parting in anger as at Robes; it
should be with tenderness thatwould
blot out their past in their separate
memories-G cd knowsl it might be even
q parting that at that moment was
Joining of them in eternity. In his mo-
mentary oxidation it even struck him
that it was duty, no less sacred, no
less unselfish than the one to which ne
had devoted his life. The light was
growing stronger; he could hear voices
in the nearest picket line, and the
