REPUBLICANS TURN TO SILVER
Decided Change of Sentiment Among
Leaders in Washington State.

Seattle. Wash, July 31.-There is a
decided exodus from the Mckinley
ranks in this State, and the Bryan
managers now claim that the State
will give the Chicago ticlAt $4,000
majority. The silver issue is the only
one recognized as much of factor IN
the campaign, and there is strong
and growing sentiment in favor of
free silver The leading advocates of
the gold stanard anticipate decided
reaction before November.
John r. Dana, nephew of Charles A.
Dana. is an earnest supporter of Bry-
an and Sewall. Two sons of former
United States Senator Frank Hiscock,
of New York, have declared for free
silver. and are going to vote the DEM
ocratic ticket.
w. II. Cowles is another of the most
ardent free silver Republicans in the
State, and Attorney General Jones,
now serving his second term, has also
declared for Bryan. He says there are
precincts in Spokane county, hereto
fore strongly Republican, in which
Mckinley will not get a single vote. In
Deep Creek, which gave Harrison a
majority larger than Cleveland's vote,
every Republican but one has joined
the Bryan clubs.

SENATOR HARRIS SANGUiNE.
He Says Mr.. German viii Carry Mary
land For Srvar.

IN an interview with a reporter OF
the Memphis Commerciai-Appeai on
Monday Senator Isham g. Harris eX-
pressed entire confidence in the cleo
lion of the silver presidential ticket.
s.There is no question in my mind,
said he. :'that the great majority OF
Tho voters in these United States are
for the free coinage Of silver, and the
sentiment is growing at most mar
yelous rate. In my personal man u
today I received three letters from
well informed men in Pennsylvania
asking me to send them literature on
the silver question. All OF the VIII
ers assured me that, with the proper
effort on our part, we would pc apie
to carry the keystone STATE LOT our
ticket in November. In New YORK the
sentiment has just commenced 10 come
to the front, and it is becoming regu-
lar tidal wave. Senator Smlth, OF New
Jersey. is one of the strongest advo-
Gates of the gold standard that Know
and lie saws that the gold men are by
no means certain of his State. lhere
is MARYLAND for instance. When
commenced the work of organizing the
country for silver last year | gave

up for hopeless. We did absolutely
nothing for silver in that State. Both
the Senators were against us, and the
whole force of the administration was
used for the Chicago convention. We
are certain of Maryland in the Novem-
Der election. Senator German, who
has always been for gold, told me {
few days since that he would take
place upon the National executive
committee and do all that he could fol
the ticket. He said that if he had haf
the control of the National conyen
ton the result would have been differ

YOU all with me | will come to you
The carrying of his own State mean
a good deal to the Senator, and | an
sure he will do so, besides being Of in
valuable service to the committee j

SECRETARY SMITH WILL RESIGN.

While Secretary Holle Smith refuses
to admit the fact, there is no doubt
that ne has determined to leave the
Cabinet, as exclusively published in
last Saturdays Journal. He has made
UP his mind to support the regular
Democratic ticket with all the intlu-
ence he possesses, and, in his opinion,
that calls for his resignation as one
Of the counselIors Of the President.
Secretary Smith win not wait for
events to develop any difference be
tween the President and himself with
regard to current politics. The situa-
ton in which he is placed strikes him
as one of extreme delicacy. He has no
doubt whatever of the course the Pres
ident will pursue on the financial issue
that dominates the pending contest.
Whether Mr.. Cleveland shall openly
countenance and support the boiling
ticket or not, Mr.. Smith feels assured
that he will desire the defeat of the
regular Democratic candidates. The
Secretary of the Interior wishes to re
tire in a quiet and dignified manner,
to avoid even the appearance of criti-
cising by his act the President who has
honored him with a Cabinet position.

colleges and universities.
Second. The work of colleges must
be not only thorough, burt also con-
trolled by a genuine and scientific
spirit. That is love Of truth, and a
fearless attitude of the mind toward
searching for truth.
Third. The mission of colleges j.
furthey a patriotic one. They must fos-
ter those civic virtues so necessary in
a republic like ours. They should fos-
ter study in the fundamental princj-
pies of government. There should be
a study of American history. Also the
South's history should be compiled
from the South's records.
Fourth. But the highest mission of
colleges is the fostering of the
noblest ideals of character.

favor of giving a general registra-

mysteriously disappeared and was

The Berg vagrancy case.

II. M. Berg was tried before
Judge de la Vergne this morning
on a charge of vagrancy. Officer
Cordes testified to the vagrant
habits Of the defendant and Mar
shall Brown to the fact that he had
been under arrest three times be-
fore in the past six months on the
same charge.
The defendant called +. A.
Schaefer as a witness but Mr..
Schaefer testified that he did not
know him or anything about him.
Berg then wanted President Dole
and two or three other prominent
witnesses summoned to prove that
he had applied for work to them,
but the prosecution obviated the
necessity of their presence by adj
hitting that such was a fact.
The witness then told a ram
bling story about the police being
down on him. Said be had been
a supporter of the monarchy but
was now a supporter of the Re
public. He had applied to
several officials for jobs but
they would not give him anything
to do. He made his living by do
ing odd jobs on vessels along the
wharves and supposed he had a
right to do as he pleased.
The Court found him guilty
and gave him quarters with Jailor
Low for three months to come.

The reporting of religious ser.
vices that has been somewhat ex-
tensively done in this paper, it
should be made known, is chiefly
the work of those aiding in the
meetings. This being a strictly
secular paper, it cannot take any
sectarian responsibility, but it
has always been liberal With space
for any denomination to exhibit
what its leaders deem to be for
the good Of humanity. The other
side of any controversial ques-

has never had ground to complain
of being refused hearing. Still,
