depressed whatever tendency there
might have ben to demonstrating enIhu
siaSm of the sort which on the day pc
fore cropped out sufficiently to give an
old time air to the city
There were no brass bands, nor any
marching nor shouters; the delegations
and clubs which had pulled into the de-
pot during the early hours, preIeIIlls
to remain on their trains, or take to the
street cars rather than march over the
muddy pavements
About the corridors of the big hotels
stale cigar smoke hung heavy and me
dalliOned citizens from back states
who had forgotten to go to bed, rubbed
their eyes and looked about for the ar
rival of the leaders who were late IN
putting in their appearance at the mead
quarters Of the states.
An early stroke of enterprise was to
be seen at the Massachusetts, parlOfs
where c0lOred men deposited several
bales of posters, samples of which they
proceeded to paste on every available
space. These posters We're OF an ag-
gressive yellow tint which caught the
eye at distance, and their flaming red
flames announced that we are for
gold" The Massachusetts men have re-
sorted to this spectacular device to Inn
press their financial views upon the
convention, intending also to placard
the town with their announcement,
and to keep in circulation the banner
with the alteration solid as gold for
Reed; solid as Reed for gold"
The reverse of the financial picture
was furnished by the silver men, who
were among the earliest to gather in
the Hobbies of the Planters. retreating

silver wheel horses of the last con
gress who stands very close to Bland

While turning q cool face to the in

NOW OREGON FALLS IN.
One by One, the Delegates are Having
Their Minds Changed.

St Louis June 15.-The Oregon dele

VIII submit it to the national commit

The Republican party has always
been the advocate of honest money; it
points with pride to its financial record
during the greenback movement. 1t
was opposed to greenback inhatfon
then; it is opposed to silver imitation
now. 1t believes that every dollar is
sued by the government should have
the same purchasing power as every
other dollar. We are therefore, in favor
of the maintenance of the present gold
standard and except through interna-
tiOnal agreement we are opposed to
the free or unlimited coinage of silver.
In addition to the above declaration
of the maintenance of the gold stand
ard. the delegation also adopted a res
Olutfon endorsing Senator Mcbride for
his action in opposing free silver in the
