never wears a turban. He is always
serious and charitable, and wherever
suffering humanity is found he does lis
best to provide relief. Besides, hs has a
white horse-not mule--which he values
next to his life, and again, he was lately
seen sixty miles south of Lordsuurg, n.
NJ, which is hundreds of miles below Pres
colt, and then announced that his metal
lie staff, swayed by the influence of "the
Father" called him southwark. The
chances are that he is somewhere in the
state of chihuahua. Hon. Amado Chaves
has written to the governor Of Chihuahua
asking for information concerning him.

NATIONAL POLITICS.
GoLDIrEs AFTER MATTHEWS.

GoLDITEs AFTER MATTHEW'S.
Indianapolis conference of gold
standard democrats was held here Satur-
day afternoon, at which it was determined
to take steps at once to oppose the free
silver tide that bids fair to carry every.
thing before it in the coming state con
vention. The conference was presided
over by Chairman Holt, of the Demo.
cratic state central committee, and State
Senator Kern, ex-Attorney General Smith
and number of business men made short
speeches.
1t was asserted that it would be waste
of time to send delegation to Chicago
for Gov. Matthews if that delegation rep
resented free silver constituency, and
that the governor was believed to lean
toward the free and unlimited coinage OF
the white metal, which would be in itself
a load upon his friends in the convention.
1t was decided to call state meeting OF
appointed to formulate the call.
SOUTH DAKOTA DEMOCRATS.
Yankton, s. D.--South Dakota will
have a contesting delegation in the Dem
ocratic national convention. State Com
mitteeman Ross says the free silverites
had convention at Aberdeen after the
goldltes had their innings, and elected a
full set of delegates to Chicago. He says
that nearly 100 of the 160 delegates pres
ent at the first convention, and who were
dissatisfied with the federal machine, as
sembled in regular session and elected a
permanent organization, and chose the
following delegates to the national con.
vention: V. 8. Ross, DR.. Lynch, s. Neu.
meier, N. Pott, J. P. Barrett, J. W. Abeel,
I. W. Laubman, A. W. Mullen. These
delegates will meet at Huron on June 4
for final conference before starting for
Chicago.
CHAIRMAN HARRITY's THREAT.
Jefferson City, Mo.-sIn reply to an in
quiry as to his opinion of Mr.. Harrity's
threat that the national convention would
not permit delegates to the Chicago con.
vention who had made threats of boiling
to take their seats, Gov. Stone said:
II am not one of those falling under
Mr.. Harrity's ban, but I shall certainly
deny his right to question me as to my
past, present or future. My credentials
tIOLu uuy oVdu0 COuFoutlOu WILL pass ule
into the national convention and give me
seat. Mr.. Harrity's permission is not
essential.
"The convention will pass on the quail.
fications of its own members. The COM
mlttee has no more right to do such a
thing as Mr.. Harrity is reported as con-
templating than it has to name the per-
manent officers, frame the platform or
make the ticket. The proposition is
preposterous. do not believe Mr.. Har-
rity is correctly reported. If the gold
men of the committee really have such a
usurpation in view the several delega-
tions may find it necessary to change the
personnel of the committee 80 as to con-
troll even the temporary organization.
We will be apt to find way to protect
ourselves against any lnsolent bossism.
am confident Mr.. Harrity has been mis-
quoted. certainly hope So"
