name Of James A. Garfield for James G.
Blaine. and was ignominiously cor
rected by the bystanders.
Another amusing little slip was per-
petrated by the Permanent Chairman,
Senator Thurston, who, by the way,
made a most excellent presiding officer.
The incident clearly showed the way
his mind was running.
When nominations for Vice President
were called for and Judge Fort took the
stand, the Chairman introduced him as
Mr.. Hobart of New Jersey" (the man
whom the MeKinleyites had determined
to elect. When the laughter this blum
der occasioned called his attention to
it he adroitly passed IT by saying Mr..
Hobart of New Jersey will now be nom
mated by Judge Fort"
The silver bolt was largely discounted,
and its effect was to a great extent neu-
tralized by the speeches which Senators
Mantle of Montana and Brown of Utah
and others made declaring their con-
tinued allegiance to the Republican

just to myself and my associates l
should proclaim to you that we take
this step. not In anger. not in pique,
not because we dislike the nominee or
otherwise, but because our consciences

make this sacrifice, for a sacrifice we

After Teller had said: II must sever
my connection with the political party
which makes a gold plank one of the
principal articles of its faith" the
Senator paused and swept his eyes
across the hall The galleries rose with
a yell, and mingled with the yell was a
fusillade of Kisses. 4 moment after,
when he said, IF, under such circum-
stances he would be unfaithful to his
trust" enthusiastic cries of mol mol"
came from delegates in the Western
and Southern States. There was u
pathos in the Senator's voice, and those
nearest him could detect the glimmer
of tears when he said there would be
heartburnings and grief in the sacrifice
he and his colleagues were to make for
their consciences. When Teller folded
his arms and sank into his seat cheers
began with the silver men in the gall
leries, and were caught up by many
sold delegates, who were on their feet
from admiration of the man. not his
cause. This time the Kisses were very
few. The demonstration was followed
BY loud cries of "Foraker!" Foraker!"
from all parts of the hall.

United States.

No effort was put forth to carry out
the much-talked of purpose OF confer
ring the second place upon Governor
Levi P. Morton. Mr.. Hobart went
through on the first ballot with nlarv
votes to spart, just as soon as the word
was passed around, after Mckinley had
been safely landed, that Mr.. McKinley's
friends desired the election of Mr.. Ho-
bart
The chief supporters of of the four
unsuccessful other candidates for the
Presidency. Senator Lodge for Reed,
Hepburn for Allison, Governor Hastings
for Quay and Mr.. Depew for Morton,
came out in ringing little speeches NOV
ing to make McKinley's nomination
unanimous, and pledging him the loyal
support of their respective States
When to these assurances Mr.. Platt
odded his personal promise of friendly
co-operation, the cup of happiness of the
Mckinley men was full.
Mr.. Depew was at his best in moving
to make Mckinley's nomination unanl-
nous. He happily said he felt he was
now nominating winner. 1t was quite
evident he had not felt in the same state
of mind when ne placed Morton in nomd-
nation, for he, most unusually Tor hlm
spoiled one of his best points. When

TIE SUBS Ut z TABLEU.
Silverites Out-VOted Nearly Eight
to One.

Mr.. Foraker, Chairman of the Conn
mittee on Resolutions, moved to lay
the substitute on the table.
Lodge of Massachusetts seconded the
motion.
The yeas and nays were demanded by
the States of Colorado, Montana and
Idaho, and the vote was taken. The
calling of the roll was often greeted with
applause when on a poll of States being
demanded some well-known delegate re-
corded his vote. This was particularly
the case when U. s. Grant in the Cali
fornia delegation, following after l.. A.
Sheldon, Garfields chum, and ]. d.
Spreckels, voted for silver by recording
a may" on the motion to lay Teller's
substitute on the table. AS States
usually classed as silver States, such as
Nebraska North Dakota, Oregon,
South Dakota, cast their votes in favor
of tabling the resolution, and added to
the rapidly growing ma ajorfty in favor of
that motion, there were demonstrations
Of delight from the eXulting gold STAN
dard delegates. Alaska voted four aye.
The District of Columbia being called,
Col. Perry Carson, the gigantic colored
delegate, who shares with Andrew
Gleason (white) the representation of
the Capital, made one of the humorous
incidents of the day. Raising his tow
ering form to its full hight, he said with
his peculiar negro dialect: Mr.. Chair
man, ayes so-andso, nays so-and-so;
/ want to know what it all means
Being Informed. he then said, "Then
we's voted all right"
The result of the roll-call was an

MINORITY REPORT.
Senator Teller Speaks Against the
Majority's Money Plank.

The reading of the platform as a.
whole was listened to with marked at
t, ntion, and at the close it was greatly
cneered. The reading occupied twenty
five minutes.
Foraker moved the adoption of the
report as the Republican national plat
form for 1896 Then the Chair, amid
the breatless attention of the conven-
ton, recognized Senator Teller, who
sent to the Secretary's desk and had
read the following minority report:
I'VE, the undersigned members of
the Committee ON Resolutions, being
unable to agree with that portion of
he majority report which deals with
the subjects of coinage and currency,
respectfully submit the following par
{ graph as substitute therefor: The
Republican party favors the use of
both gold and silver as equal standard
money and pledges itself to secure the

Surged up and down the narrow aisles

The galleries were closely packed-the
fair sex being well represented. While

In recent interview John Sherman,
discussing the part he played in the
demonstration Of silver, said: ut was
quite an undertaking when I agreed to
shape legislation on this line in 1873.

"Intrlnsic Value"

The theory that gold has an inherent.
intrinsic value which remains forever
the same, immutable and everlasting,
is delusion which should have no
weight with any thinking man. Why
should gold alone. of all the substances
on earth, be unaffected by the law of
supply and demand? If shipload OF
men were cast away on desert island
and found thousand tons of yellow
metal, but no food, would they not
gladly give ton for one box of bread?
Suppose they found the sand was all
gold, but there was one little patch of
earth where they could raise a garden,
would not that little patch be of more
value to them than all the rest of the
island? The gold would be drug on
the market" no one could use it and no
one would want it.
The price of gold is no more intrin-
sic and no more permanent than any
other value, except as the demand for it
is steady. The coinage value set upon
the metal by the governments of the
world gives steady demand at a fixed
price. The same set of circumstances

1t is silly and futile to deny it.
Some oddities admit that remonet1-
cation would cause some rise in value
but they deny that the silver would have
this wonderful intrinsic property and
preserve it's value unchanged without
fluctuations, as they say gold does. At
least, such is the argument of some gold
men. Others claim-and here is an in
consistency very characteristic of the
gold sophist-that mo amount of legis-
lation in it's favor could change the
value of silver one iota." The ignor-
ance which promotes such statements
as this must be wilful ignorance. II
comes from men who have every chance
to know better.-Farm, Field and Fire
