Cleveland Alarmed.

A late special to the st. Louis
Globe Democrat from Washington
city says: There is : radical change
in Administration circles about the
control of the Democratic National
Convention. Until now the Presi-
dent and his advisers have felt no
doubt that the sound money senti.
ment would control At Chicago on
JULY. But the information brought
to Washington from various parts
Of the country by the meeting Of
the Executive Committee of the
National League of Democratic
Clubs, does not support this view
It is now conceded by many AID.
ministration Democrats to be al.
most certain that the free silver
Democrats will control the Conven'
! ton, and will put in the platform a
declaration for independent free
coinage at 16 TO /.
The President, in conversation
with prominent sound money Dem.
ocrats drawn here by the Executive
Committee meeting, has expressed
his surprise at the strength the free
silver movement is showing. He
has expressed his fears that the
Convention will be carried away BY
it, and has urged that there be nc
relaxation in the fight for sound
money. He has declared his viii
lingness to do all in his power &c
strengthen that cause. Attic same
time the President has expressed
himself emphatically against any
thing in the form of compromise
He wants the sound money Demo
Gratis to ask no concession and t.
give none in the Convention, be
lieving that it is best the fight shall
come now and be ended.

Colorado in Line.

The Colorado Democratic State
Convention met at Denver April
18th and adopted the following
y latform
The Democratic party of Color
ado pledges its unwavering devo-
ton to all the principles of the
Democratic faith laid down BY
Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jack
son.
Believing that the evils that now
Cypress the people are the direc'
result of a departure from the true
principles of Democracy; that the
policy inaugurated by the Rspub-
'ican party for the contraction Of
the currency and for many years
continued by it to the gradual and
certain Impeachment Of the peo.
pie, in the face of steadfast oppo-
sition from the Democratic party,
but adopted and approved by the
political administration, has result
ed in the creation of an enormous
bonded debt in a period of profound
peace, visiting q deadly blight on
every industry and carrying dis
couragement and dismay into the
household of every wealth producer
in the land that there never can
be condition of general welfare
until tho volume of sound and
stable currency is equal to the de-
mand of industrial and commercial
pursuits that the first step in this
direction should be the immediate
restoration of silver to the place II
occupied in the currency of the
world for centuries previous to 1873.
We therefore favor the Immediate
restoration of the free and unlim-
tied coinage of gold and silver at
the present legal ratio Of is to l
and such coinage az existed prior
to 1873 without waiting for the aid
or consent Of any other nation, such
gold and silver to be q full legal
tender for all debts public and pri-
vato.
