SILVER MEN WILL BOLT.
They Will Not Stand a Gold Plank In the
Democratic Platform.

New York, April 20-A Chicago spec
ial to the Herald says: 1t is practically
settled fact that if gold plank is
put into the platform of the national
Democratic convention the silver men
will bolt, hold national convention,
and nominate their own candidate
Illinois is in the scheme which has a
strong support from Gov. Altgeld. Sec
rotary of State Hinrichsen and the
great majority of the state central
Democratic committee. Missouri. Colo
RADIO and the other silver states will
also join the boilers and they expect
to get aid. comfort and delegates from
several Of the Central states. although
not many from the East.
In Illinois the gold men stand little
chance, for the silverites will show
them no mercy whatever. The Demo-
Gratis state central committee will meet
tomorrow. Monday. and name a place
and time for holding the state conven-
ton. This convention will be held
| about 10 days after the Republican
national convention.
Secretary of State Hinrichsen, is
chairman of the committee. and he is
running things. He says the state con-
vention will declare for silver, choose
silver delegates at large and name sill
Yer elector electors. Therefore the
honest money Democrats. when they
vote in November will cast their ballots
for silver electors and there may be
trouble in the electoral college, for
should man be nominated at Chicago
on a gold platform these silverite
electors may not vote for him.
The same is true of all silverite cleo
tors, no matter what states they come
from, and should the silverites not have
enough nerve to bolt the national
Democratic convention, they have the
opportunity to cause trouble in the
electoral college,. In Illinois the Demo-
cratic district delegates are chosen by
the representatives or districts in the
state convention. and then the conven-
ton passes upon them, having the
power to reject them if it chooses. This
is strong club in the hands of the
silrerites, and they propose to use it.

HON. OMAR cLARks CONDITION.

Hard Labor.

WaterviIe. April 20.-(SpeciaD The
story appearing in Monday morning $
papers regarding the mental condition of
Hon. Omar Clark. the lumber king of
Maine" is to a certain extent mislead-
ing.
Mr. Clark. as the title given him by
his friends indicates, is an owner of large
tracts of timber lands in Somerset and
Piscataquis counties in Maine consid-
able timber acreage in North Carolina
and in the West. He has always been a
hard working man. doing the immense
business incumbent on a man owning so
much timber land. alone. He has never
had secretary or agent, preferrng to
do all the work himself.
His business for the past year particu-
larly him almost constantly on the road.
sadly interrupting his rest. and the con-
slant strain has worn on him to the
extent that he has felt for some months
that he must take a rest. The work he
has performed in the several years that
he has been prominent in the lumber
business would have killed an ordinary
business man years ago.
OF late he has attempted to put his
business into shape SO that he could take
the much needed rest. but he is by nc
means insane.
