SOUND MONEY DEMOCRATS

In pursuance of call issued sew.
eral days ago some three hundred
prominent democrats of this state,
who are opposed to the free coinage
of silver at the ratio of 1G to /, met
at St. Louis Saturday to consult in
regard 10 the matter and to discuss
the propriety of organizing by
districts to make fight for delegates
to the national convention. Quite
lengthy address was issued and a
campaign committee appointed. The
address complains that the unprece-
dented action of calling the state
convention to meet in Sedalia on
April Is to elect delegates to the
national convention, three months
in advance of the meeting of the
convention, was done with the avow.
ed purpose of influencing the party
in other states and committing the
national democracy to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at ratio
of 16 to l of gold, regardless Of the
relative value of the two metals and
regardless of the action of the other
commercial nations of the world.
The above PRONUNCIATION relieves all
doubt as to the attitude and inten
tions of the sound money wing of the
democratic party in this state and
the glove has been thrown down fol
a fight for delegates to the national
convention. They will contend for
the election of delegates as hereto
fore by district. If this policy is car
ried out the state convention has
one other recourse left,to instruct the
delegates to the national convention
to vote on all questions as a unit.

Amsterdam Breeze.-If the popu
lists want to keep DeArmond in con
gress why not indorse him and not
put out candidate If there are
two silver candidates in the field
Lewis will be elected sure as fate.
The suggestion is good one, but
the populists of this district will not
heed it. Their animosity to the
democratic party is so bitter that
they would rather see a gold bug,
high tariff republican than support
free silver, revenue tariff democrat
They will fight DeArmond or any
other free silver democrat harder
and more bitter than they will the
hard money republican. They did
it before when they knew that a vote
for Francis was a vote for Lewis
See if this prediction does not prove
true.

George, Hale, Morrill, and Wetmore.
When this result was announced
the densely packed galleries broke
into long continued applause, which
the vice president checked with diff
fculty. The result was reached
after day of fervid speeches, which
at times aroused the crown of spec
tators to enthusiastic demonstrations
and the keen public interest on the
subject was evidenced by the
presence of the largest crowd since
congress assembled. The repre-.
sentatives of foreign powers were
numerously in attendance, the oc.
cupants of the diplomatic gallery
including ministers Mendonca of
Brazil, Hatch of Hawaii, Lazzo-
Arriage of Guatemala. Rengifo of
Columbia and Baron Won kettler of

NEW ICE FACTORY.
Fifty-Ton Plant to Be Established in
 Phoenix

The fact that the two ice factories of Phoenix are now running at the ex- treme capacities and yet are unable to supply the demand has proved an ob- ject lesson to an eastern visitor, Walter Hill, who started back to Chicago yes terday, intending to at once secure and establish in Phoenix an ice machine of fifty tons daily capacity. Twenty tons would represent the maximum product of the two factories now here.
 It is understood that while the great new factory will supply local trade, it's main purpose will be to supply ice for shipping. It is remarkable fact that the ice used at Glendale for refrigerat- ing fruit cars is shipped from Needles, Cal, the hottest spot on the western continent, but which has a fifty-ton ice machine, from which the Santa Fe fruit trains are re-iced on passage. The local factories cannot supply ice for refrigerating cars and the need of large plant for this purpose was keenly felt last season. The trade of Congress and other points easily to be reached by rail is also very consider able
 The assurance is given that the new factory will be in operation next springtime.
