Poisoned at Flushing, Monday. at Birth

The Martins Ferry Times OF yester-
day said: "A wholesale poisoning took
place az Flushing Monday evening, and
while no fatalities have been. reported,
some of the victims are having a very
serious experience. On that date Mr..
and Mrs. David Humphreys, who re-
side near the town, have fashionable
afternoon party in honor of the host
fou.ieth birthday. There were thirty
five guests present from Flushing and
vicinity and a sumptuous banquet was
partaken of at o'clock. Shortly after
ward some of the guests began TO feel
slight sickness, but this was thought
TO have been caused by over eating.
The company dispersed at o'clock but
several were Frustrated before they
reached their homes and others were
similarly attacked shortly afterwards.
The symptoms were nausea with ex-
cessive vomiting. Not single member
of the party Of thirty-five escaped al
together. Frank Mead was taken down
much worse than any Of the others,
and for while it was thought he could
not live. He was slightly improved
Yesterday morning. but was still in a
dangerous condition. 1t is thought the
poison originated with the pressed
chicken but this is not certainly

SOLID FOR GoLD.

The way in which the Massachusetts,
delegation to the St. Louis convention
comes out for gold is to be admired.
this without any modification what
ever. 1t is manly; it is straightfor-
ward; it is without equivocation; it
is for gold and no silver It should
be the declaration of the convention
and probably will be. The anti-silver
men who have backbone desire this
very thing. They see, as everybody
sees. that there is but one great issue
this year, and that is the financial one.
Why, then, should it not be presented
to the people in the fewest, simplest
and most honest words possible? To
becloud the issue is to in part avoid
the issue. The silver men in the Re
publican party want a clear and I'M
equivocal declaration on the money
question as well as the gold men in
the party do. Naturally there will be
some trinmers, but the great majority
of the silver and gold men are made
of unbending stuff, and they will pre-
Ter d ldlT, SQUARE ISSUE. EUI ILLS pun
pose they should unite that there may
be no straddle, no lodging the issue, no
attempt at deceiving the people.
General Lew Wallace, than whom
there is no better party man
at St Louis, speaking of the
prospective platform, says that
the first declaration should be
in favor OF the gold standard. PUT
it broadly he says, so that no man
can be deceived-in favor of gold
standard as the basis of the currency
of the United States"
That is the only way to put it, for
the Republican platform will be for
the gold standard. Then when the
Chicago convention makes its decla-
ration on the financial question let it
be in like plain and unequivocal terms
in favor of the free and independent
coinage of silver at the ratio of Is TO
1. Then the people will have the issue
before them and can decide for them
selves.

SENATOR NARREN,s PLAN.

Senator Warren, of Wyoming, could
he have his way, would avoid all ref
erence to the financial question in the
Republican national platform. He
would leave the whole question open,
the most cowardly thing that could be
done. He thinks it would be wise
policy rather than attempt to frame
a. plank that would be satisfactory
only to the extremists on both sides,
and which could not be done
from the very nature of the case.
therefore to leave the whole ques-
ton to the public for solution. He
neglects to state how the public could
solve it when there is no declaration
upon the subject The only thing the
Republican party could do would be
to take the other side of the question
from the Democratic declaration. And
that would not give it a clear and we'll
defined policy the same as a declara-
ton on the subject would.
IF could have my way says SEN
ator Warren, II would make no equi-
vocal declaration. Let the Republicans

that on the money question our diff
ferences seem irreconcilable. but west,
east, north and south we believe in the
truest discharge Of our obligations.
No Republican wants anything but the
soundest money, and no one desires
reputation at home or abroad. Let
us say that, for upon that we are of
one mind. But let us stop there and
allow the Republican party to in the
future work out the problem as to the
manner and extent of silver coinage.
There should be no prescription on one
side or the other If the members of
the party honestly differ, let them hon
estly say So"
That is the most astonishing state
ment ever made by man who makes
any pretensions to having political
ideas or views. 1t is as coWardly and
pusilanimous a proposition as ever was
put forth by politician. Senator War
rem disgraces himself by making 1T
1t is very evident that he is not a

world that the saddest words of
tongue or pen are that it might have

same fact for herself when she went

her milk, and spoiled her frock into
the bargain.
A story of it might have been comes
from San Francisco. The Argonaut
of that city tllls Of the collapse of the
Allison boom and the downfall of
some high hopes. 1t says the
bursting Of the Allison boom is a
bad thing for California, politically
speaking, for had Allison been nomi-
mated and elected 1--WE presume it

positions, foreign missions, and federal
patronage galore distributed in Cali

been a federal boss, while Sam Short

ridge, it says, would probably have
been made secretary of state. and
Trumbo minister to the court of St.

WHAT DON NJ. DICKINSON SAYS.

a st. Louis dispatch to the San
Francisco Examiner says that AN init
nation of what the sound money"
Democrats may do in case the Chicago
convention declares for free silver is
given by Harrison Gray Otis, Of the
Los Angeles Times, who is in st. Louis.
Mr.. Otis was in Detroit a few days
ago, where he lunched with Mr.. Don M.
Dickinson. Mr.. Otis, in speaking of his
visit, said:
In talking over the political situation,
Dickinson, knowing that l was coming
to st. Louis, said: . Do not allow your
fellows down there to stop short of de-
claTing fat-footediy for the single gold
standard. If they come out squarely
for gold, without any reservation, the
sound-money Democrats will allow the
silver men to have their own way at
Chicago, organize the convention and
do what they please, and then they will
turn in and help you elect the Republi-
can candidate. But if your men down
there adopt anything that squints to-
ward silver, or is like the sI.raddiing
planks of former years, the sound money
Democrats will turn in and make a Wig
orous fight in the Chicago convention
and nominate a sound-money candidate
and defeat the Republicans at the polls
on the money issue"
There can scarcely be amy doubt that
Mr.. Dickinson is correctly reported. He
seems to think that the ''sound-money''
Democrats can dictate terms all
around. According to this plan the
"sound-money' Democrats would much
prefer to turn in and hep elect a. Re-
publican candidate who is squareiy for
gold than to take the trouble to go to
Chicago and fight for the nomination of
sound money candidate, for the
assumption is made that if they went
ard made the fight they could easily
win. That is not at all certain, i'm fact
the chances are Overwhelmingly
against them being able to control the
chicago convention. But it is generous
IN the extreme of Mr.. Dickinson to saw
If he really did say 1t, that the Sound
money Democrats will allow the sill
Yer men to have their own way at Chi
cago, organize the convention and do
what they please. This is exactly in
line with the programme of the free
silver Democrats.
What good party men. according to
Mr. Dickinson, these ''sound-money"
Democrats are. Their policy is to rule
or ruin. So far as the Democratic party
Is concerned they can do neither. But
their plan shows THEN. anirnus. If is
much to be preferred that they should
tight the Democratic party openly and
fairly in the Republican ranks to re-
manning in the Democratic ranks and
stabbing the party in the back.

THE LIGHTS IN THE STREETS.

1t must have been a very pleasant
surprise to the citizens last night to
behold their city lighted at night once
more. For two months they have
cheerfuiiy submitted to the inconveni-
ence of darkness that they might win a
fight for principle. And they finally
won. The value of the victory is far
greater than the sum of money saved
during the past two months, for the
people have realized their strength and
taught the electric light company a
lesson it will not forget in a, long time.
If city councils would always act upon
their knowledge and only in behalf of
the public interest there would be
very few occasions when they would
not come out successful in contests
with big corporations, as was shown
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-06-16

in the contest over lighting our city.
The great trouble with them is that
while they are elected by the people
and are technically knewn as public
servants, too often they are but the
tools of corporations and rings, while
their sentiment towards the public is
the same as that of old man Wander
bilt, THE public be ID 1t is wen
that the people keep these facts in
mind.
1t is a. matter of congra tulation that
the streets are again lighted. 1t is a
matter OF further congratuiation to
know that there will be no dispute over
their nghing for at least year.

connection with the abstracting of

the mails. For this infamous service
he was nominated judge of the high

Hill, and this in the face of the pro-

test was Of no avail and he received
his reward for his work. The whole
business was great blot upon Hill
