SINCE the news of the result of the
Kentucky contest was received it is the
opinion of at least seven democrats
out of every ten, regardless OF their
personal preference, that the silver
democrats will have a majority in the
Chicago convention and will be able to
dictate the platform. The more con-
sentative among them think, however,
that the time-honored two-thirds rule
will be continued and that it will be
utilized as toner down of extremes.
In other words, that while the silver
men will have majority which will
enable them to make any sort of plat.
form they want, they will not have the
two-thirds necessary to nominate candi'
dates.

that Gov. Taylor should participate in

the state. Gov. Taylor expressed his
sympathy with the plan to have him
speak, over the state and will enter
heartily into the work. The chairman
and secretary will select headquarters,
probably the Maxwell house, tomorrow
and they will open up next Monday or
Tuesday.

Mr.. CLEVELAND scored one on con-

tence Of his veto message that ''the
contracts provided for in this bill would
create obligations of the United States
amounting to $62, 900, GOO exclusive of
the $17, 0O0,0 900 cash appropriately, no
less binding that its bonds for that
sum-" The unfortunate part of this
matter is the large number of demo-
Gratis in congress who admit that the
president is right but yet are going to
vote against him because the bill car
ries appropriations for their state or
districts.

The statement of Chairman Harrity,
of the national democratic committee,
that he is going to the Chicago conven-
ton with the intention of supporting
the ticket and platform adopted by that
convention, and that he thinks every
delegate ought to enter the convention
with the same intention, has been we'll
received by democrats in congress, and
as q rule democrats, whether for or
against silver, endorse Mr.. Harrity's
position, because it is the old, old
democratic principle of the rule of the
majority. During Mr.. Harrity's stay
in Washington he was very emphatic
in stating his belief that there would
be no bolt at the Chicago convention.

Profound Sensation.

Mobile, Ala, June 2.-One of the
most profound sensations which has
ever occurred in this city was occasion
ed this morning by the filing in the
chancery court of bill of complaint
for a divorce from her husband, James
HI. Mason by Mrs. Lee Oliver Mason,
his wife, who alleges adultery and
cruelty.
Owing to the wealth and social stand
ing of the parties society is aghast
James II. Mason is the president of the
First National bank of this city and is
one of the wealthiest men of the town.
The Masons have been among the
leaders of Mobile society. They have
occupied a magnificent home at the
northeast corner Of Government and
Claiborne streets and Mrs. Mason has
been noted for the magnifcence of her
gowns and equipages. She is an en-

"vicious paternalism" which lays aside

IT is not denied by anybody that
President Clevelands veto of the river
and harbor bill was in line with Jeffer-
sonian democracy, nor that his veto
message was an entirely truthful and
conservative arraignment of that bill
and of the anti-democratic system upon
which it is founded; yet many demo-
Gratis are helping to get sufficient
number of the members of the house
aud senate back to Washington to pass
the bill over the presidents veto, and
it is probable that they will succeed in
doing so during the present week. In
view of the fact that this bill could not
pass over the presidents veto without
receiving a considerable number of
democratic votes, it behooves patriotic
democrats to carefully read President
Cleveland's words: ITO the extent
that the appropriations contained in
this bill are instigated by private
interests, and promote local or indi-
vidual projects, their allowance can
not fail to stimulate vicious paternal-
ism and encourage a sentiment among
our people, already too prevalent, that
