WANTS A MONARCHY.

The Rev. Father Connolly of ST.
Mary's Church, New York, wants
America to become q monarchy.
He preached on the results Of the
election. He is a free silvcrite,
and deplores the fact that Bryan
was defeated. After placing the
blame for the Republican victory
upon Grover Cleveland, the A. p
A., and the Junior Order of Ameri-
can Mechanics, Father Connolly
described the scenes in New York
on the night of McKinley's elec-
ton. He characterized the de-
monstrations as unAmerican, and
said they constituted the most OBJ
InoXious, indecent, and vulgar in
cident in American history since
the theft Of the Presidency from
Samuel j. Tllden in 1876.
He said that the result Of the
election demonstrated the fact
that the voters Of the country are
unfit longer to think for them.
selves and to vote for the best
men. He favored, he SAID, lin,
ited monarchy, because Americans
are unable to govern themselves
and to make their own laws
Father Connolly called Mckinley
and his associates pigmies, and
prayed to the Almighty to make
them statesmen. With a smile, he
said he thought that task suf
iclent to stagger Omnipotence.

Minnesota Gold Democrats.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, July 23.-In response
to call issued by the Democratic national
committeeman, ID. w. Lawton, about two
hundred gold-standard Democrats met at
the Merchants Hotel at noon to-day and
immeditey adjourned TO Mozart Hall. the
hotel being too small for their numbers.
A committee of seven, one from each con-
gress!onau district, was named to attend
the Chicago conference OF gold-standard
Democrats. From the committee on reso-
lutions, William F. McCuIcheon reported
a platform which, after a suitable prean-
BILE, declares that IL utterly repudates the
platform adoIted at Chicago and declares
that the sound-money Democrats of Min
nesota will refuse 70 support the candidates
of that convention. The committee pre-
sented two resolutions and suggested that
separate vote be taken on them. The read
ing of the resolution was greeted with ap-
plause. The resolutions favor a calling of
a national convention by the anti-free-sil-
Yer delegates to the Chicago convention to
decide what action to take regarding a
national ticket. The resolutions were
adopted.

best way is to appoint a committee

Issue call: we want all the States repre-
sented when the call foes forth for the

After long debate a resolution was
adopted TO the effect that II was the sense
OF the meeting that Democratic conven-
ton should be held. Democratic plat
form enuncisted and candidates for Presi-
dent and Vice President chosen, and that
the said convention should be held not
later than Sept. 2.
A committee OF one from each State
represented was appointed by the chair
man to draft call for the convention,
with orders to report TO the general meet
ing at II O'Clock tomorrow morning.
General Bragg said after the adjourn
ment of the conference at l o'clock in the
morning: There is no longer any doubt
that the gold-standard Democrats mean
business. We were all decided that il was
the best thing to call a convention. and
put a ticket in the field, but there was
a difference regarding the manner in
which it should be done. Indiana Illinois
and Missouri were strongly Of the opinion
that the call should be issued at once, but
the others were not so sure about that
part of it. The difference of opinion on
that point was what made the meeting so
long. We are now all right and the call
will be issued to-omorrow."
Minnesota should have been represented
at the meeting tonight, but a telegram
from Minneapolis announced that an or
ganization was being effected there. and its
delegate, Daniel Lawler, will be in Chicago
tomorrow The following telegram was re-
ceived from Controller James H. Eckels
while the meeting was in session: i nave

The leaders of the meeting expressed
themselves as sure of the support OF the
Eastern and the Southern Democrats. and
said that they had taken the initiative In
the matter because IL was better. In their
opinion, that the fight should be begun in
the West, where the PoDuIists have their
greatest strength.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN,

A moss-covered tree cannot remain
healthy.
1t is a mistake to set fruit trees in
the garden.
Moss on a tree affords hiding place
for insects.
An application of whitewash is good
to remove moss.
AS soon as the apples begin to fall
from the trees i. will be good plan to
rurn the hogs into the orchard.
With raspberries and blackberries all
canes that grow outside the direct line
of the rows should be treated as weeds.
A good rule in pruning is to cut all
dead or disabled wood and every branch
that starts out where it is not wanted
as soon as seen.
The growing canes of raspberries and
blackberries do better if they are kept
from becoming too tall, as they are
usually inclined to do.
Trees should be so pruned while
young that the necessity for cutting of
large limbs will be avoided.-St. Louis
Republic.
