DETROIT, MICH, May s-Don. NJ.
Dickinson to-day gave out for pubIica-
ton a reply to thi charges made in the
United States Senate Thursday by Senator
Vest in regard to the control Of the Michi-
gan State Democratic Convention by

Senator Vest is in error in all Of his state
ments about tho Michigan convention. as
are the other southern senators who have
been making threats Of senatorial in
vestigation Of the campaign eliminating
IN the result OF that convention.
He asserts that neither Chairman
Stevenson nor anybody else issued any
circular to ofiice-hOlders in connection
with that convention. Onice-holders
friendly 10 the administration were out
numbered In both county and State con-
ventions by ofiice-holders with free-silver
proclivities. Not one of the leaders of the
majority on the floor Of the convention
was a Federal oliice-holder
He denies that delegations were filed
by persons from outside the counties
represented.
The lG-to-1 men never had majority OF
delegates elected OF $50 or 200; on the
contrary, the returns tabulated by the
administrations forces before the dele
gates reached the city showed a strong
majority against free gill;

When their hunger had been appeased
there were loud calls for Colonel John
Bell Bigger, whose oratory is always
in demand on such occasions, and who is
always good for the blues" The genial
veteran member of the association. arose.
and made one of his characteristic i'm
promptu speeches. He referred to the

terms. When I'm connection with his
speech he mentioned the name of Or. Car

said his heart went out TO him. He had a
fellow-feellng for the man who knew the
delights Of landing black bass or a

wanted the Blues to look upon him in
the light OF a friend. and as zone OF the
boys" He was a Mason, and believed he
was a prominent one, so far as degrees
went. but when he became a member
of that order he refused TO be a chaplain.
because he wanted TO be on an equal foot
ing with the others, and have the same
chances OF going TO the top. He was now
one of the Blues. and would be glad TO be
with them on all public occasions. And,
he declared. II il ever became necessary
for them to "go to the 'front.'" although
he had a wife and children, he would
be ready to accompany the boys.
HE WILL VOTE NOW.
