SILVER MASS MEETING.
There Was Great Gathering in
Denver Last Night.

Denver, April 2S.-At a silver mass
meeting held here tonight, Mr.. L. n.
Stevens was the principal speaker. Mr..
Stevens stated that the meeting was not
to be construed as the formation of a
silver party in Colorado and that the
organization would have nothing to do
with local or state politics. Its object
was to secure the signatures of at least
10000 Colorado citizens to a pledge that
they would support no presidential NOM
inee who was not for silver at 10 to l..
Their pledge is to be sent TO the national
bimetalic headquarters in Washington.
The new organization will elect seventy
delegates to the national silver conven-
ton in ST. Louis. About 1000 signatures
were secured at the meeting tonight.
A letter from Senator Teller was read
encouraging the silver men to continue
their efforts for restoration of the white
metal, and speeches were made by R.
w. Speer, Judge Decker and prominent
men of all parties.

State University without going through
the preparatory department, as they
formerly were compelled to do.
Probably no former State Superln-
tendent has travelled so much as the
present incumbent in visiting the
schools. He has been present and de-
livered the diplomas at every normal
school commencement in the State
since he has been in office. This beats
the record of any of his predecessors.
The work of Mr.. Lewis in the Office OF
State Superintendent strongly COM
mends him for reelection.
While it is not known here positively
whether Attorney General T. S. Riley
will be candidate for reelection, yet
he is understood to be willing to ac-
cept the Office
FOR ANOTHER TERM.
Like his other associates in the State
administration, he has made a most
efficient and faithful public officer. He
has closely looked after the States in
terests in the various courts and has
been exceedingly successful in gaining
verdicts in the various suits in which
the State government has been inter-
ested. He is a lawyer OF splendid abil-
tiles, and no better man could be Sc
cured for the office Of Attorney Cen
eral for the next four years.
There is no doubt that the Governor,
Auditor and member of the Supreme
Court would all be renominated if the
Governor were eligible for reelection
and they all desired to be candidates.
The Governor and his associates have
given the people clean administration
and have done much for The general
welfare of the State. They have hon.
ored the party which honored them,
and the value of their public services
will strengthen the hold Of the Demo-
cratic party upon the masses. There
is not the slightest doubt entertained
by the Democrats here Of the party's
being able to carry the State by de-
cisive majority.
The question of proper distribution
through the State of the candidates on
THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET
has had some consideration here. 1t
is now generally conceded that Gen.
Watts will receive the nomination for
Governor. Assuming that he and the
three gentlemen named for reelection
TO the offices of Treasurer, Superintend-
ent of Schools and Attorney General
there would be one candidate from the
First Congressional district two from
the Third and one from the Fourth,
leaving the second district without d
candidate and two more places to fill
Auditor and member of the Supreme
Court. The most valuable of these two
offices-that OF would very
properly go to the Second district, and
that OF Judge of the Supreme Court to
either the First or Second district. Col.
R. P. Chew, Of Jefferson, has been men
toned as a candidate for Auditor, and
If the scheme of distribution just sug-
gested should prevail, Col. Chew would
be strong candidate for the nomina-
ton. So far as your correspondent is
able to learn, no one as yet has an
nounced himself as a candidate for the
Supreme bench.

cabbages are injured by at least
hive worms and one louise. The best
remedy is TO sprinkle the cabbages with
hot water at 100 degree F. If boiling
water be poured into the sprinkler it will
be cool enough when it reaches the plants.
A little tar in the water will be of benefit,

A spray of one ounce of Paris green in

may be killed with hot water, with kero-
sene emulsion or with hot strong SOAP

worms is an effective remedy.

Around Mellctte Indicate a Loss

A Loss of 1900, 900 Bushels.

A dispatch from Mellette says: Hot
wave have rolled over ,hIs section for
several days, making it difficult to work
in the fields or town. One hundred in the
shade has been the case Tor several days.
Grain cutting is about done, stacking is
we'll under way and threshing has COM
menced in earnest. In all areas not hit
by hail estimates place the yield at from
twelve to twenty five bushels OF wheat
per acre.
The great hail storm Of a week ago
covered a much larger territory than first
supposed. 1t ran nearly southeast from
Ipswich, to near Condo, a probable length
of fifty-fve miles, with intervals un-
touched between. In the vicinity OF
Mellette and Worthwhile there have been
secured the names OF 1Ol sufferers and
their acreages, whose aggregate losses
alnonnt to about 1000 acres, iour-ffths OF
which is hardly worth cutting. Much of

Money Is Spreading.

Ban of Canadian Banks on Our
Money Is Spreading.
All chartered banks in Halifax, n. S.,
announce that, beginning Monday, they
will charge a discount Of 5 per CEN N
American currency at all their offices in
maritime provinces.
A dispatch from New York says: The
refusal of some of the banks in Canada to
receive American silver certificates except
at a discount was explained by the agent
of the of the large Canadian banks.
''In the first place." he said, 1.-THE Cana
dian banks do not like to take American
money, and they have taken advantage of
the silver agitation in the United States
to put a heavy discount on it. There is
vastly more American money in circula-
ton In Canada than there is Canadian
money circulating in the United States.
The banks in the United States will not
take Canadian money at all. Persons
who have any take it to money changers
and part with it at a discount.
1.-The Canadian banks have the right to
issue bills and the larger extent to which
American money is used in Canada the
more the circulation is reduced.

Spain Wants Damares.

The Spanish Government is preparing
a big bill of damages to be presented 10
the United States on account of the nu.
merous expeditions alleged to have gone
from our shores to the relief of the Cuban
insurgents. The Wiborg case recently
decided by the United States supreme
court is cited and referred to as the one
solitary conviction obtained by the United
States since the beginning of the present
Cuban insurrection. The attorney says it
thought proper TO show from the case Of
the Geneva award against Great Britain
what the United States expected of a
neutral nation, and also to recall the at
titude of Spain to the United States dur.
ing the Civil War. The principles indie
Gated and enforced by the United States
against Great Britain as those which
should have governed her conduct would
seem, the report says, to he clearly
applicable to the duties and obligations Of
the United States towards Spain in the
recent instance.

LIFELESS FEELING IN TRADE
The Deadly Heat Added to the Pre-.

The Deadly Heat Added to the Pre-.
vailins Dizziness.
X. G. Dun L. Co.'S Weekly, Review OF
Trade says: An extraordinary spell of
deadly hot weather has affected trade
throughout the country, and in the east
speculative feeling was somewhat affected
until Thursday by apprehension of the
possible influence OF the Bryan meeting.
With cooler weather there came also a
perception that the meeting would not
affect business ~unfavorably. But other
conditions were not stimulating. Accord
ing to Government reports the crops have
sustained serious injuries. Labor Difficult
ties extend, and the closing of establish
ments for want of work and the refusal Of
commercial loans by banks, checked
operations in many branches OF indus
try and trade. The week, therefore,
closes as the last week did, with domes-
tic business unusually dull for the sea-
son.. Measured by clearing house ex-
changes it was 5 per cent. smaller than
last year and l5.5 per cent. smaller than
in the same week of 1892, the last year of
full business at this season. The Govern.
ment crop report for August was sc
gloomy that a great rise in prices would
have followed il it had been entirely
credited. In fact wheat rose about a
cent, but again declined, closing only a
fraction higher for the week. Corn de-
clined throughout the week, closing over
q cent lower. e.
Failures for the week have been 29S in
the United States, against 1876 last year,
and % in Canada, against IS last year.

Spanish Generals Quarrel.

Capt. Gen. Weyler of Cuba and Gen.
Ochando were the principals in a sem
s%ational affair which occurred shortly be-
fore the latter sailed for Spain. The death
of Gen. Ochando's nephew, who was a
lieutenant in the Spanish army, was the
cause OF the trouble. There were ugly
rumors in circulation rejecting on the
young lieutenant, who was accused of
conducting a reasonable correspondence
with Maxine Gomez, the insurgent chief.
When Weyler heard Of the rumors he
summoned the young man to the palace
and questioned him. Weyler was .ap-
parently satisfied of the young mans
guilt and told him that if he did not com :
init suicide in twenty four hours he would
he court martialed and shot.

PRAIRIE CHICKEN SEASON.
There to q Difference OF Opinion Re,
gardiMg the Date.

ASO
garding the Date.
Numerous inquiries have lately come n
state officials as to the date when prairia
chickens can be legally killed in thi,
state. There is u general impression
among spOrtsmen that the date is August
Is. The last act of the Legislature, passed
at the 1895 session, sets the date at Sen.
TENDER l. The matter has never been
tested in the courts, and there is no def.
mite ruling on the matter. The only an
thority for making the date August Is il
that OF a minor Judge or a justice of the
peace some where down in the southeast-
ern portion of the state, who claimed In
have discovered that the 1893 law is de.
fective II of no force. This, he claims
makes the statute of 1899 good, and that
statute places the date at August Is. Sec
ton 1856 of the compiled laws places the
date at A. aust Is, and the session of lsa0
amended tn: section of the complied
laws, and the >Mending act contains Nc,
usual repeal CLAUSE at the finish. The
session Of 1893 again amended section
1850 OF the compiled laws, setting the date
back TO September l. This act the Justice
holds TO he of no force because tie first
act repealed that portion of section 2SS6S
and 1t was not subject to amendment. IF
the case were ever taken before a court
which is competent to pass upon it, there
Is but little, II any, question that the date
would be declared to be Septembe /.
