Michigan Independent snverltes.

An independent free silver conven-
ton was held at Lansing with about
$50 delegates present Hon. Geo. f.
Richardson, of Grand Rapids, opened
the meeting and Judge Q. A. Smith of
Lansing, was made temporary chair
man. while f. :. Porter, was elected
secretary. A committee of IL was APP
pointed To report plan for permanent
organization. After a recess the per-
manent officers of the convention were
named as follows: Maj. Il. c. Watkins,
of Belding. for chairman; A. ID. Cruik
shank, of CharlevoiX, ce-chairman,
and George +. Richardson, of Grand
Rapids, and Frank ;. Porter, of Lam
sing, for secretaries. Maj. Watkins
made strong speech urging the sill
yer men in all parties TO unite upon
single ticket. The resolutions were
very strong denunications of the gold
standard, declaring it was instituted
through bribery, intimidation, corrup-
ton and fraud. and that it has brought
idleness, pauperism, and bankruptcy
upon the debtor and laboring classes
while it has enriched the creditor class,
and that its continuance will result in
universal bankruptcy and the confisca-
tion of the property of the producing
classes. The free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of 10 TO is
then advocated for the United States,
independent of any other nation.
The committee on state organization
recommended that the new party be
called the Union Silver party; that the
convention select a state committee
which shall elect its own officers and
be authorized to call state convention
at suitable time and place TO put in
nomination an electoral and state
ticket, inviting the support of all who
favor the restoration of the right of
silver to free coinage of our minis as it
existed prior to 1873, and who favor
congressional control of the value of
money; that congressional and county
committees be authorized TO take like
action TO put in nomination congress
sional tickets. Delegates were elected
by districts TO the ST. Louis free silver
convention, and delegates-at-large as
follows: j. w. McGrath, of Detroit; O.
Il. Crozier, of Ann Arbor; c. j. Covey,
of Grand Ledge; Z. f. Jarvis, of
