The Y. lP. s. c. E. convention of
1896 will be held at Washington, D.
c., about July 8 or 10. Those who
took the big Four route from the
western cities to Boston last year
well know the superior facilities OF
that line. The 'Big Four from St.
Louis, Chicago, Peoria, Indianapolis
and the West and Northwest in con-
nection with the g. & O. Ry:, offers
the best line to Washington. 1t is
historical and picturesque, and is
delightful in every respect. Through
Palace Sleeping cars run daily from
st. Louis and Indianapolis to
Washington. Look up the many
advantages when you make up the
interesting itinerary OF your trip.

AND FREE SILVER.

Conceded That They Will BE Winners at
the Illinois Democratic Convention.
PEORIA, Ills, June 22.-It is highly
probable that the Illinois state Demo-
cratic convention will complete it's work
Of naming state ticket and delegates
at large to the national convention in
one day. All the plans have been ar
ranged with this end in view, and W.
D. Hinrichsen, chairman Of the state
central committee, said that the free
silver men had decided to do this and
that they, had the strength to carry their
point. He says that 954 of the 1859
delegates are instructed for free silver
and that they will adopt a free silver
platform. As yet there has been no one
talked of for governor but John p. Alt
geld. It is conceded by every one that
he will be the head of the ticket.

One of the influences that was
supposed to be very influential in
Gov. Clough's interests in this
campaign were the personal let
tiers from Senator Nelson to voters
of Scandinavian descent. The re-
result in Morrison county indicates
that such is not the case. The
Scandinavian Republicans arc as
loyal as ever to Nelson, but they
have apparently failed to identify
his interests with those of Mr..
Clough. The precincts in the
county in which the Scandinavian
Republicans are very strong, sup.
ported Mr.. Lee with scarcely an
exception. The Third ward and
the second precinct of the Second
ward, in this city, contain the
bulk Of the Scandinavian vote of
Little Falls, and they both went
for Lee by large majorities.
Elm Dale was for Lee, and nearly
all its voters are Scandinavians,
and it is the strongest Republican
town in the county. Cushing,
Scandal Valley and Culdrum also
sent Lee delegates, and the major
ity of their Republicans are Sean
dinavians. While there were
some Scandinavians supporting
Clough, their general preference
either way seemed determined in
dependent of the letters sent or
published by Mr.. Nelson. Whether
the same will prove true of other
localities is not known, but it
shows that in Morrison county
the Scandinavians took sides on
the governorship according to
their own ideas.

Texas Free Silver Democrats May En-

AUSTIN, Tex, June 22.-Some of the
silver delegates to the state Democratic
convention, which meets this week,
have arrived in the city, and when seen
by an Associated Press representative
stated that, Individually, they were not
at all averse to the endorsement of Teller
by the Democrats; that as the issue of
the campaign was to be on silver and
gold, they believed that all factions IT.
respective of party lines would affiliate
to win the battle; that Teller would
poll a strong Republican following and
if the Democrats and Populists endorsed
his canvass and supported him, that he

STATED BY TOYNE.s

Congressman Towne gave out
the following statement after the
Republicans had adopted their
gold platform:
The battle of Waterloo was
fought on the 18th Of June, and
Napoleon lost. It is Waterloo
Of the modern Napoleon too.
This is the new birth Of Amer
canism and patriotism. The Re.
publican party, that was born to
achieve great purpose and most
nobly did achieve it, has finally
fallen under the control Of the
money changers and brokers Of
the world.
There are still large numbers Of
patriots and high spirited men
who have unconsciously become
subordinate to the. men who repre-.
sent the hoarders instead Of the
producers Of society. The full
significance of the departure of
to day in the Republican conyen.
ton will in future years be
regarded as epochal.
Parties are the means only ito
ends and can never become ends
themselves without danger to the
general good. Men who believe
alike on questions of the day as.
sociate together to achieve a com,
mon end. When that association
pronounces for something alien
and foreign to a principle, when
it becomes identified with the an.
tithesis Of that principle, it no
longer has claims to their ale.

I am not Republican now some
body else has changed and not /.
The political significance of to.
days proceedings is historic. In
my opinion the Republican party
on its gold platform has got to
make a fight for it's existence in
every state west of the Alleghenies,
audit has not conclusive pre-.
sumption in it's favor in four states
in America.

Many Of the leading Democrats
still insist that their. party will
not favor free silver but the re-
suits in the state conventions that
have elected delegates to the
national convention indicate be-
yond doub BIT that the party decla-
ration will be for free coinage at
16 to 1. There is little talk Of
candidates, but Whitney, of New
York, would accept the nomina'
ton on gold platform, and Boies,
of Iowa, is the most prominent
man if free silver is the choice Of
the convention. The party is not
apt to take up a Populist or a free
silver Republican.

OF the Delegates at Lal &c.
SARATOGA, N. Y, June pa few
politicians have already reached this
city to attend the state Democratic con-
vention to be held in this city Wednes-
day. A line of policy, it is said, has
been marked out to placate the State
Democracy, so that there will be a
united delegation to the national con-
vention. This has led to proposal of
one name from that organization, if
Mr.. Whitney still refuses to accept. Ex-
Secretary Charles S. Fairchild is the
name mentioned, but no confirmation
Of the rumor can be obtained here.
The other names upon the ticket for
delegates at, large had no opposition.
They are Roswell P. Flower, Edward
Murphy and David B. Hill.

It is und erstood that the Clough
element in the First ward, that
carried the Republican caucus by
the aid of from 60 to 70 Demo
cratic votes, will not forget their
friends in the fall campaign. The
Democrats gave them a majority
in a Republican caucus and it was
not done unless the Democratic
interests were to be advanced in
some way.

Free Coinage IL Necessary.

BUTTE, Mont, June 22.-The Demo-
cratic state convention is in session here.
M. p. Parker, of Jefferson county, was
chosen temporary chairman, and Sidney
Fox, Of Sweet Grass, temporary secre-
tary. The chairman in speech said
the one great issue before the people
was the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. Referring
to the bolt of the silver delegates at the
st. Louis convention, he said: "This
action of men who resented the attempt
to saddle gold standard on them will
meet with the approval Of the people"

The recent caucuses in the city of
Little Falls had close parallelin the
Democratic caucus held in the Sec
ond ward in September, 1894. At
that caucus about 800 votes were
cast for Democratic delegates, yet
in the fall election, about. two
months later, there were only 90
votes Gust in the two precincts of
the ward for the Democratic candi-
date for governor. Such proceedings
as that, and the similar plan at the
Republican caucuses in the central
precincts in the city, will convince
anyone that some sort of protest is
about due. +

The Little Falls baseball club de-
feated the Royalton boys in the
game at Royalton Saturday after
noon. The game was very interesting
and was holly contested, and with
the exception OF two wild throws
our boys played ali errorless game,
otherwise they would have held
their opponents down to q small
score. The. score stood 10 to ~ in
favor of Little Falls. A return game
has been arranged for some day this
week, and will probably be played
at the grounds near the depot. 1t is
generally conceded that for boys Of
their age the Little Falls ball team
is "hot" aggregation.

Failures for the week have been 215 in the
United States against 253 last year and SO in
Canada agains IS last year.
With political convention in progress directly
antagonizing the position taken on the money
question by the convention of last month 1t is nat
ural that there has been with many enough un-
certainty about the future to intensity the dull
ness expected at this season Wall street exhibited
Thursday and closed lower for the week, Zoe per
share for railroads, but trusts rose 1S points
The wheat market advanced little while, tn
other speculative markets stagnant or
slightly declined. but Its small advance was
There were many who believe that the decrease ia
yield this year has been underestimate and part
of the dispatches gathered by Dun's review last
week tended to support that view, though prac-
tfcally all the returns from what now the chief
wheat-growing States were more cheering
Corn and oats promise well thus far that
prices do not advance although exceptionally low
already. and some meats have made a new record
for cheapness.
Serious apprehension regarding injury by drought
to cotton in Texas seemed justified by some dis
patches published last week, that telegraphic
advices of somewhat general rain IN the State is
welcome Whether it is in sufficient TO
insure q satisfactory yield cannot be definitely
known, nor the extent of injury said to have been
done by excessive rains in some Atlantic States
But with the large Increase of acreage weld of at
least fair proportion seems to be probable, and in
view of heavy stocks carried in mills and markets
here and abroad. and mills closing quite extern
stvely TO permit tightening of accumulated stocks
of goods large yield could hardly prove most BEN
eficial to the producers.
Large sales of print cloths are reported at 21zc,
slightly above the bottom prices, but other goods
have not yet been strengthened. some decrease
appears in the demand for boots and shoes since
higher prices have been asked
Not much can be said OF market so fat as
that of iron and steel products but part of the in
activity is strictly reasonable; part Is due still

ture is clearer.
