THE LAST MEETING
The Republican National Committee Con.
cludes Its Lsbors

The Republican National Ccmmlttes Con-
cludes Its Lsbors
ST. LOUIS, June 15.-The national
committee, by a vote of 81 to 4, decided
1t inexpedient for the committee to make
any recommendations to the national
convention regarding change of the
basis Of representation.
Chairman Carter stated that the ma
tional committee had been receiving tele-
grams from chambers of commerce,
boards Of trade and other organizations
on variety of subjects and 1t was
promptly decided to refer them all to the
committee on rules and order of business
at the convention.
Mr.. Carter then stated that the rule
of the Republican party requiring that
the national committee shall give six
months notice of meeting of national
convention gave the opposition party
some advantage. 1t was usual for the
party in power to hold it's convention
first and the other party could have the
advantage, IL any should accrue, to the
holding of a later convention, The
Democratic party was compelled to give
but sixty days notice. In the future it
might be of great advantage to have q
shorter notice than six months, as at
present Mr.. Fessenden offered q reso
luton directing the chairman Of the con-
vention to present to the committee on
rules and order Of business a statement
that 1t was the sense Of the present COM
mittee that the interests Of the party
would be advanced by authorizing the
committee to reduce II 1t desired, the
time limit of notice from six months to
sixty days.
At this point very pleasant episode
occurred. Mr.. Clayton offered resol,l-
tion rendering the thanks Of the commit
tee to Chairman Carter for the able,
impartial and dignified manner in which
he had presided over the committee dur
Ing its deliberations. The resolution was
amended to include thanks to Mr.. Man
ley and other officers Of the committee
for the satisfactory manner in which
they had performed their services. The
resolution was passed unanimously by
rising vote. Mr.. Carter. responding, said
1t was the last meeting of the full COM
mittee in business session. He wished to
express his sincere appreciation of the
kindly words which had been adopted,
The committee adjourned until 4
o'clock, which meeting Is simply for the
purpose of distributing tickets.

A MASS MEETING
In Honor Of the Silent Candldate-silver Is
Ignored

ST LOUIS, June 16.-A monster Nc
Kinley mass meeting was held tonight
in the Music hall, which forms part of
the exposition building in which, eight
years ago, Grover Cleveland was nom
mated. The audience was made up
largely of visiting delegates, although
local politicians were in evidence and
a unmber of ladies graced the function.
Introduced by Mark Hanna, Governor
Bushnell Of Ohio presided at the meet
ing. On taking the chair the governor
said William Mckinley was the choice
not only of Ohio, but of the nation. and
the audience rose and howled it's acqui-
escence Like Virginia, he said, Ohio
had come to be the mother Of presidents,
and she was ready with her man for the
present occasion.
The governor was followed by ex-
Congressman w. E. Mason of Chicago,
who started out with the statement that
try would meet to nominate president
of the United States. The audience
sent up terrific shout for the man from
Ohio.
why don't you speak about silver?"
inquired a voice.
SILVER" said Mr.. Mason in response,
"is an issue between Democrats and
Democrats"
Mr.. Mason's speech was almost wholly
y
Congressman Grosvenor Of Ohio said
an attempt was being made to blind the
issues of the campaign by the introduce
tion of the silver question. but the
American people were not to be de-
ceived. What they wanted in the money
line was the American dollar. The
greenback dollar had no symptoms of
debility about 1t, for it was worth it's
face in gold. What was wanted was the
protection Of American industry rep
put more of them in the pockets of the
American workingmen. (Cheers)
p. D. Woodmanse of Ohio, ex-presi-
dent of the League of Republican clubs,
spoke of Mckinley as the advance agent
of prosperity.
Speaking of Missouri, Webster Davis
Of Kansas City said Missouri and Mis-
souri, Republicans were all right, and
for that reason they were for Mckinley.
A reference by Governor Bushnell to
II. Clay Evans as a presidential
candidate was received with applause.
WATCHING THE GAME
CANTON, o., June 15.-Governor Nc
Kinley passed very quiet day. There
were no out-of-town visitors of note,
and no occurrence to attract particular
attention. From the Associated Press
representatives, furnished with news
by loop in his residence, he received
the full news of the convention. But it
was not of nature to engross him or
cause him to give up morning drive
of an hour or so with Mrs. Mckinley.
Nor was he so deeply interested as to
keep close to the instrument.

A SHIPPING PLANK.

Senator Sewell of New Jersey and the
New England delegates have been doing
work today among the members of the
committee on resolutions in the interest
of strong shipping plank in the plat
form. The plank is as follows:
I'VE pledge ourselves to restore the
American policy of discriminating dut-
les for the protection of our shipping
In the foreign-c carrying trade; so that
American ships, the product Of Ameri-
can labor, employed in American ship
yards, sailing under the stars and
stripes, and manned, officered and own
ed by Americans, regain the carrying Of
American commerce"
A TARIFF PLANK.
Senator-elect Foraker, who will be
chairman of the committee on resolu-
tions, said the tariff plank will be dis
tinct declaration for protection, but
that the Mckinley law will not be re-
enacted. Conditions have changed, he
said. and tariff laws must change with
them,

SIGNS OF STORM
Tho Filley Faction Threatens to Abandon
McKiniey's Cause

ST. LOUIS, June 15.-The first threat
of a ripple to mar the smooth march tow
ard the nomination of Major William
Mckinley came late tonight, in the
shape of a report that the Missouri dele
gates, owing allegiance to Chauncey, l.
Filley, had determined to break from
Mckinley to Reed. The first report was
that five delegates had signed an agree
ment to vote for Reed, while others
were preparing to do likewise.
The development grew out of the de-
feat of Filley for the post of national
committeeman at today's meeting of
the Missouri delegation. The bitter
fight which has been waged between the
factions of Missouri Republicans, led by
R. c. Kerens and Chauncey l. Filley, cul-
minated at ST. Joseph, May 18th, when
Filley swept everything before him in
the state convention. Since then the
Kerens wing has worked upon the dis
trict delegations and today in secret
ballot Filley was defeated. His defeat
resulted in his followers making desper-

of New York furnishing the tail Of the
ticket was abandoned. Although the
Maine delegation Is not advertising the
fact, 1t is almost certain they will pre-
sent the name of ex-Gov. Cleaves. Rep
resentative Dingley Of Maine, who was
spoken Of, does not covet the honor.
There is still a lingering hope among
vast number of delegates that Speaker
Reed will be nominated by spontan-
eous outburst in the convention. If he
Is, 1t is not believed he would decline,
any more than Logan could in 1884, or
Hendricks or Thurman could when they
were placed on the Democratic ticket
In 1884 and 1888 respectively.
Tonight the streets were brilliantly IL
Illuminated and a monster Mckinley
demonstration was made.

isfied

ST. LOUIS, June 15.-The money plank
of the platform has been agreed upon.
1t is victory for the middle west" but
Is perfectly satisfactory to the extreme
east.

the plan which follows and which was
submitted to Senator Lodge and other
eastern men today, as a substitute to the
plank prepared by them yesterday and
has been accepted by them as completely
satisfactory This it is believed ends

division of the states on the financial
question is given to the Associated
Press from the leaders in the various
movements and has been submitted to
them in tabulated form and approved.
The results are as follows:
For. gold standard with the word gold in

The herald., 1896-06-16

and instructed them to vote for gold
declaration.
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ore
gon and Washington also took strong
grounds for gold. In Indiana General
Lew Wallace was chosen as a member OF
the resolutions committee after he had
declared he would not stand upon the
Indiana plank and the utterance in IA
vor of the gold standard could not be
made too strong for him. Minnesota,
with her eighteen votes, instructed ex :
Governor Merriam to insist upon dec
laration for. the gold standard. Michi-
gan and several of the northwestern
states, notably Iowa and the Dakotas,
and several of the southern states, Geor-
gia, Mississippi and Louisiana, an
nounced their opposition to free coinage,
but did not favor too radical declara-
tion in favor Of the gold standard. Iowa
was particularly solicitous, and feared it
might carry the northwest into the DEM
ocratic camp in case the Chicago con-
vention pronounced later for silver. The
eastern delegates are overjoyed over the
outcome, and believe the result of to-
tainty as to the character of the financial
plank. The exact language of the plank
has not yet been drawn.
Mark Hanna, to whom all eyes are
turned, and to whom all are agreed
belongs the distinction of being the DOM
mating power in the convention, has had
many planks presented to him, but all
mean practically the same thing, the
maintenance of the gold standard until
an International agreement can be
reached, and unalterable opposition to
free coinage. Coupled with these decla-
rations will be undoubtedly a declara-
tion in favor of such use of silver as the
needs of commerce demand, but not be-
yond the point where the maintenance
of the parity would be endangered

and abounding in the varied produc-
tons, great in their productiyeness
immense in territory and with still un-
developed resources too great even to

more than fifty years ago thought not
worth spending fifteen thousand dol

Not one, but a number of transconz

Teas and silks from China and Japan
now find their way to the Atlantic and
to Europe through our Pacific ports
and across the continent by rail. Car

grain fields in the world now go out
from these same ports to find market
in Europe. Lumber is loaded on yes
sells in them for Europe, Asia and Af-
RIGA. Their growing commerce reaches
the entire world. With the great strides
toward more advanced civilization
now being made in Oriental nations
and with their manufactured products

The great point of entry for this Ori-
entail trade was first San francisco,
then divided with Portland and now
with Tacoma. But the laws Of trade
now seem to have settled upon the
mouth of the great Columbia river, as
intended by nature as the great central
port of entry and that, while in the fu-
ture the cities named may become as
Boston, Philadelphia or Baltimore are
to the Atlantic, the New York Of the
Pacific is to be at the mouth of the Col
umbia. This has been made possible
by the removal of the barrier at its
mouth. Without that obstruction the
matter wonld have been settled long
ago. Now capitalists are pushing rail
roads for that point and business men
seeing the manifold advantages of its
location and are crowding to Astoria.
They are taking advantage of the pos
ition nature provided.

Restricting Immigration.

A proposal is now before Congress
to amend the Federal laws for restrict
ing immigration. It provides for the
exclusion of ell aliens more than four
teen years Of age who cannot read and
write the language of their country.
Such a law would have very little eff
feet upon German or English speaking
immigration, but would shut many
very undesirable people out who crowd
into Eastern cities and, eventually,
constitute q large percentage of the
slum element and swell the criminal
and pauper population. The Huns and
Italians who are brought here, eyading
the contract labor laws, would nearly
all be shut out. The Scandianavians,
Germans, English and Irish who come
to America, nearly all make good citi-
zens and very soon assimilate with AM
ericans. While they are desirable, it
would be well not TO stop with merely
an educational test but torequire every
immigrant to bring with him a certif-
cate, approved by an American consul,
showing a good character and ability to
earn a livelihood. Keep out all Grim
inaIs and paupers.

The Kentucky FiascO.

The Kentucky legislature has ended
a ninety days session, stormy and dis
graceful, and has adjourned sine die.
In 1862 kentucky held three eonyen-
tions to discuss the subject of seces-
sion. One passed resolutions to secede
from the Union; one resolved to stay
in the Union and finally the third one
decided to remain neutral, All three
of them we're farces. The great Lin
coin had to tell an annecdote to illus
trate the situation. He said that when
he was small boy he was given the
task OF watching valuable SOW which
was about to have pigs and see that no
harm was done to her litter. II kept
in sight of that old SOW said he, "and
she waded across the creek, rooted to-
gether a nest of leaves, laid down in it
with satisfactory grunt, got up again
in few minutes, re-crossed the creek.
rooted together another nest of leaves,
laid down in it and grunted her con
tent, and then, hang me, if she didn't
get up and go out and have her pigs
right in the middle Of the creek" This
is the first time this annecdote Of Lin
coin was ever put into print 1t was
told to Col. Haggard, Of Kentucky and
by him told to the writer thirty years
ago. History has repeated hself. Ken
lucky has stopped in the middle Of the
creek again. Carlisle was the boy who
had the self appointed task OF looking
after the old SOW this time.

Misunderstood.

The Idaho World is one Of our most
esteemed exchanges. We have often
felt that we would like to visit Idaho
City, just to make the acquaintance OF
the Joneses, who run that very original
paper. They were once all Republicans
and we liked them for that. They
dropped the gold-bug Republicans and
Topped over into the Populist camp.
And even that did not jar loose our es-
TEEN for them. Wherever, however,
they picked up foundation for the
following, we cannot conceive. 1t is
very original. The last sentence in it
accords with our notions to nicety.
But if the NUGGET ever suggested a Re
publican silver party,it must have been
in a moment Of alteration, of which
we have no recollection
'sThe DeLamar NUGGET has hit upon
a plan purely original with the MUG
GET. tbs to organize a silver Repub-
ican party. 1t don't believe in a pure
silver party. Now wouldn't a silver
Republican party be dandy? How
can a certain thing be organized out Of
another certain thing that doesn't ex-
ist? We viii simply make no further
comment on the NUGGETS plan, but
viii have to compliment it on its bril-
liant originality. We wouldn't be the
least bit surprised if the NUGGETs should
now proceed to advocate the manufac-
ture of gold out of the rare air Of Owy-
hee county. The NUGGET,of DeLamar,
ought to be placed in a cabinet Of gems
and rare curiosidesp
