AS MATTERS STAND.
AS matters stand now Colonel William
Lamb Is still State chairman, but whc-
'ther he will continue to serve his coun-
try and his party in that capacity re-
mains to be seen. Certainly the Colonel
mas expressed no intention of resigning.
and, indeed, is quoted as saying that he
sees no reason for doing so, inasmuch
as he is merely an executive officer. Ii
would seem, however. and is so consid-
cred by those on the outside that the
Colonel Will hardly remain the chairman
OF body so Overwhelmingly opposed to
him, with an executive committee fight
ing him at every step.
1t is thought that unless he conciliates
the Bowden wing of the committee, the
job of State chairman will not prove
bed of roses henceforth, and the honor
in the office Will be simply nominal.
4 PERTINENT INQUIRY.
If. on the other hand, he should con-
cIliate that faction, and there are those
who say he has been approached on the
subject, then he will certainly have TO
leave in the lurch those friends who
haze stuck by him 50 manfully and
lons-Messrs. Martin, Carney. Waddy,
ct ais. These latter are on the outside
Lamb and Colonel Lambs side of the
question. A pertinent query Is asked
can the Colonel fight with his friends
and remain In the fold of the enemy.

How iowa Democrats Stand,

Des MONIES, 10, May 3-Twenty
democratic county conventions held
in Iowa thus far have elected 107
delegates to the state convention
pledged 20 Boies and free silver, and
sixty two delegates pledged to sound
money. The same counties, with a
different representation in the state
convention last year, gave 107 votes
for free silver 10 1O1 against. The
free silver forces have thus made
substantial gains SO far, but an ex,
animation of the counties show that
many of the conventions were called
early for the sake of effect OF the
sixty two sound money democrats
already elected forty five came from
the two counties of Clinton and Des
Moines. This summary does not
include either Black Hawk or Wood
berry counties, where the convention
split and contesting delegations
were chosen.

Jealous of the "Lily VVhltes.v

New YORK, May IA convention
of Colored Republican delegates from
nine States of the South was held here
o-day. There were fortythree del.
egates. J. II. Jones presided and
VIM. Fl, TAFT was secretary. It was
announced that the convention was
called to devise some means to prevent
the so called Lilly Whites" OF the
South from crowdlng out OF the ST..
Louis convention the colored delegates
in Districts where the colored Repub-
licans are in the majority. The con-
vention passed number of resolu-
tions, among them one petitionine the
negroes Of the South to unite against
the Lilly Whites" of the South. The
convention declared the Lily Whites
TO be made up Of "Plebs' and dissatis-
office seekers of the Democratic party.
National delegate G.. W. Edwards Of
Virginia, made the principal speech:
He said the Republican party should
come back to the first principles-hu-
man rights. The colored man was
first to spill his blood in the late re-
bellion. The speaker continued: The
negro saved the Union, and saved the
Republican party, and the nation can
only be saved by the nomination Of
such man as Reed. Allison, Morton,
QUAY or Cullom. The country does
not want any Hayes in the White
House. II would have been better
for Tilden to have been seated than for
the rights of the negro to have been
surrendered by Hayes" Magnus B.
Robinson, editor of the Leader, made
a strong speech in favor of the color
ed delegates at the national conven.
tion. The meeting was secret and
those present are reticent concerning
all that transpired.
