In Ohio.
Columbus. o., June 25.--Delegates-at at.
large, John II. Mclean. Allen w. Thur.
man. l. IL. Holden and E Il. Finley.
The Democratic state convention con.
cluded last night. after being In session
continually all day. IL was primarily
q silver convention, and secondarily ths
budding OF a boom for John II. Mclean
for the presidential nomination at Chi.
rago. or the G73 delegates, 5i2 voted FOR
tree silver and 61s for Mclean. Three
men were mentioned by the delegates
as Ohio's favorite for the Chicago nomi-
nation--McI.ean. Campbell and Book
walter. Ex-Governor Campbell had been
q favorite until the silver tidal wave
struck the state. but he was considered
roo conservative on the silver question.
When Ex-Governor Campbell and hia
friends arrived here and found the senti-
mcnt drifting for Mclean or Bookwalter.
they supported the former. defeating
Bookwalter In hot fight for delegates.
thus ending the Bookwalter boom for
president and leaving the fie>d go far as
Ohio is concerned to Mclean. with the
unit rule annexed. There We're at first
two opposing movements-one 10 instruct
Cor Campbell and the other to instruct for
Bookwalter. Tho Mclean men worked
hard to prevent instructions for any one,
and their next movement was to keep
rivals from being selected as delegates.
They had their way In the preliminary
work of the district and committee meet
ings, and in the convention they named
all the delegates and state candidates
and dictated the platform.
Now the Mclean boom for president
is no longer under cover. IL is currently
reported that Senator Blackburn OF
Kentucky and others OF the state are in
the Mclean movement John r. Nc
Lean is proprietor OF The Enquirer OF
Cincinnati, and has been advocating free
silver for years In his paper. l.. Z.
Holden is proprietor OF The Morning
Plaindealer at Cleveland. and has also
been an ardent advocate of free silver.

was as ardent silver man as General
A. ]. Warner. who presided over the
convention.

More Silver Delegates.

Indianapolis. June 25.-The Democratic
state convention was the largest ever
held I'm the state. The party primaries
and the convention preliminaries had
been prolific of contests and contentious.
Tile silver sentiment had developed, and
tine advocates of free coinage had with
comparative ease captured controlling
majority Of the convention. But the gold
standard Democracy. in a minority, and
caught mapping, awakened TO vigorous
resistance. OF the I747 delegates, the
silver men. at first complacent in two
thirds majority, found the minority so
Vigorous that they determined to use
their power mercilessly, and the only ad-
vdntages claimed by the gold men at the
opening of the convention were due TO
circumstances which the silver men
overlooked or could not control.
The silver men captured everything
i,structlng their Chicago delegates to
stand through thick and thin by the most
extreme silver Views and the nomination
of Claude Matthews to the presidency.
The candidate for governor, Mr.. Shivcly,
appeared after he had been declared the
nominee and made a vigorus and en-
thusiastic speech. giving special atten-
ton to the endorsement of the silver
plank.

For fiand end Silver.

Austin, June 25.-An endorsement of
Bland for president and a straight out
silver platform at l6 TO. /, regardless OF
the action OF any foreign government,
was the sum and substance OF yester-
days Democratic silver convention,
which adjourned sine die after hot dis
cussion. The interest of the days ses-
sion, outside of the fight over the plat
form, which was precipitated by some
not wanting to make the silver issue in
dependent of any other nation, was the
row that was precipitated over the ef-
fort 10 have delegates instructed for
Bland for president. The convention
had been in session all day. and was just
on the eve of winding up its business
looking to final adjournment when the
fight was reopened. Without asy previ-
Gus notice, Judge Seth Shepard mounted
the platform and began to read a reso-
luton looking to the instruction of the
convention for Richard T.. Bland. AS he
began to read the resolution two men
bearing a huge picture of Bland.
mounted on frame, came marching
down through the center of the conven-
tlon hall from the front door. The very
instant the picture was seen the crowd
began yelling. The deafening cheering
was continued for fully five minutes.
There was considerable opposition de-
veloped against an endorsement. After
a long discussion an amendment was
offered looking cnly TO an endorsement
of Bland and giving the Chicago delega-
ton to understand that he was the
choice of the Texas people, and that they
should govern themselves accordingly.

 Speaking of section IA of the bill, Mir Hooper of Massachusetts, said: "ln ad- dition 1t declares the gold dollar of 9 3-l0 grains Of standard gold to be the unit of value, gold practically having been in this country for many years the standard of measure of value, as it is legally in Great Britain and in most of the European countries. The sil- yer dollar being worth intrin- sically about l03 in gold, itcannot cir culate concurrently with the gold coins. Congressional Globe, vol. l02, page 2305.
 It is we'll that all these facts should be made public. THE OASIS has long been aware that the record above quo ted was made. Its editor once had it. but it was destroyed by fire with his library and office in 1893. 1t is only within the last two weeks that he has again been put in possession of the data. The record places the responsi- bility fer decentralization of silver where it belongs and when it was done-upon the democratic party in 1853.

NOT APPROVED.

Adiutant General Schwartz re- ceived telegram from Col. John A. Martin, of Tucson, who annOUnced tue two militia companies we're in readiness at an hours notice to mount and go to the front. Governor Frank liu is not suppressing prize fights or managing insurrections, and he treats the matter lightly. Of course If the civil authorities in the lower counties call for aid 1t will be furnished promptly, but sc long as the sheriiis can keep order the militia of Arizona will not be called out. Gazette.
 TIE OASIS very much doubts that Governor Frank.sI would treat lightly a matter 90 grave as the affair just over the line last sfeek, and it al- so doubts that his sexsellency approves the course of the 6azette in thus speaking iUt sairi.
 Had the isurrection on the Sonora side of the line made such teadway as it's projectors intended the danger to people and property on this side of the line would have been very great, and, moreover, right at once 1t would have been beyond control of the civil au- thororities. Governor Franklin cer- tainly understands that, and, also, that unless the United States troops moved promptly to protect she line It was his duty tc do so. Doubtless he was well aware of the action taken by Colonel Bacon, of the regular army, and knew there was ne cali for his own action.
 But Governor Franklin should pray to be saved from such fool friends as the Gazette. Americans here at No- gales, Arizona, who were awakened from their slumbers Wednesday morn ing Of last week, by the pattering of bullets on the walls Of their houses, are feeling and speaking very bitterly of Governor Franklin, just on account of the unkind fling conveyed in the above article from the Gazette.

The El Paso Times says that mint will be given Fl Paso if Bryan goes to the white house.
