THE HOPE OF HiLLSBORO.
The Newspaper Representative Of the
Sierra C0unty Gold District fEas
Faith in the Cyanide
Process.

After remarking that the cyanide pro-
cess is the "hope Of the Aillsboro gold
district" the excellent HilIsboro Advo-
cate gives the appended concise aetcrp-
tlon of the process:
The use of cyanide consists of three
methods teaching, percolation and pre-
cipitation. The ore is first crushed in a
mill to about the a'Ie of small Nuts G.
peas. 1t is then .>nveYed to circular
steel yats where the solution is applied.
This reduces the gold in the ore to liquid
form, which percolates through a false
bottom in the vat to trough, where il
comes in contact with zinc shavings,
causing chemical action and ecipitat
ing the gold. The process IS rapid.
A mill of six vats, fifteen feet across
and five feet in depth, will handle sixty
tons per day with ease. The process is
cheap, too. Cyanide costs about so cents
per pound, and it requires about one
pound to the ton. Forty eight gallons of
water per ton is the quantity used. One
mill handles 200 tons per day, and this ia
by no means the limit Of possibility. OF

woLCoTT DECLARES HIMSELF.


Washington. Senator Wolcott, of Colo.
RADIO, has written letter defining his
position in regard to the st. Louis con-
vention. The senator's position is radi-
cally different from the position of his
colleague, Senator Teller, as Senator VOL
colt indicates his intention of remaining
with the Republican party whatever &C.
tion it may take on the currency ques.
tion.
After declaring that he doesn't want to
be delegate to the st. Louis conven.
tion, and even limiting that Colorado may
not be represented there, he says:
"There is no sacrifice would not make
to secure the demonstration of silver,
not because Colorado is a producer OF
silver, but because, in my opinion, pros
perity will never return to us until bimet-
allism at the former ratio is re-estab-
lished, and because the approaching
value of gold and the shrinkage of values
which necessarily follow this apprecia-
tion must bring only disaster aud pow
erty and suffering to all the people OF
this country who are not lenders of mon
ey. 10 secure the unlimited coinage of
silver, would count party ties as nothing.
At this moment, however, the situation
which confront US is this:
"Both of the two great parties are ap-
parently opposed to free coinage by the
United States. The Populist party favors
free coinage, but only as a means to Sc
cure more currency and as a stepping
stone to unlimited paper money, and it
unites with.free coinage advocacy social
lstic and paternalistlc doctrines which are
dangerous in tendency, and which would
be, if adopted, destructive to free institu-
tions. know of no fourth party as yet
entitled to our confidence and our sup
port, although the wisdom of leaders
whose character and abilities we trust
may find some common ground upon
which bimetallism, untainted with Popu-
lism, may stand. =
"Under these circumstances and con-
ditions, therefore, desire to be counted
as Republican,
TELLERs ATTITUDE.
Denver, Colo.-A newspaper this morn
ing publishes the statement that friends
of Senator Teller have his assurance that
he is willing to lead the Republican dele.
cation to the St. Louis convention, al.
though he reserves the right to refuse to
be bound by the action of the convention
if against silver.
voUoHED FOR BY JOHN SHERMAN.
The st. Louis Globe Dem ocrat observes
editorially: John Sherman ought tc
know how Mckinley stands on the fnan
cial issue and every other public ques
tion, and probably he does know. "There
can be no doubt" said the senator, "as tc
the opinion of Major Mckinley on the
money question. He is committed in
every form, every speech and otherwise
to the Republican policy of maintaining
the present gold coin of the United States
as the standard Of value" And the sen
ator adds that she, in common with my
self and others, believes that silver
should be employed as money, always
however, to be maintained at par with
gold"

OUADRENNIAL CONFERENCE
Great Gathering OF Representatives Of
the Methodist Episcopal Church
in Cleveland.
WOMAN SUFFRAGE SENTIMENT STRONG
Nearly Every Country on the Globe
Represented by Delegates-John
Wesley's Famous Bible Used
in the Services.

Cleveland, Ohio, May 1.-Three thous-
and people were present this morning
when the great quedrennial conference
of the Methodist Episcopal church was
called to order by Bishop Bowman. Near
ly every country on the globe was repre-
sented.
Bishop Bowman announced that the
Bible, which would be used in the ser
vices, was the one which was used by John
Wesley in his study in England. This
historical treasure was presented to the
conference some years ago. Rev. DR..
Upham Drew, of the theological semi
nary, closed the devotional services.
When tie name of Lyaia A. Trimblc
was announced, delegate was imme-
diatey on his feet with motion that this
name be omitted until the committee had
determined whether her election was le-
gal.
For moment 1t looked as if the fight
had started.
Bishop Bowman, however, refused to
entertain the motion, as he declared that
the convention was not organized.
The tumultuous applause which greeted

strength of the woman suffrage faction of
the delegation.
This was the first sk,rmish, and, as
other names of women delegates were
called, no exception was taken.
The secretary continued to call the
roll.
The conference decided to fill the va
cancles from the reserves and to adopt
the rules of the last conference.
A fight for the rights of laymen on the
floor Of the convention was precipitated
by Mr.. Daniels, of India, who presented
resolutions claiming the right of laymen
to choose the commit see ON which they
will serve in the same manner as the min
isterlal delegates have made choice of the
committees on which they will serve, any
previous arrangement notwithstanding.
When the tumult following the presen-
tation of these resolutions had subsided,
Bishop Bowman ruled them out of order,
still contendiug that the organization of
the convention had not been perfected.
