What an Independent Says.

The Madison Democrat, mot a
party paper, has this testimon-
ial to offer as to part of the
democratic state ticket:
Mr.. Silverthorn. the nominee
for governor, is one of the ablest
men nominated by any party in
this state for that office in very
many years. HE'S among the
foremost lawyers ofthe common
wealth and a man of irreproach-
able character. His candidacy
will prove most welcome and
gratifying to all citizens who
admire ability and integrity, and
Funder the. leadership thus created
a clean, vigorous and reasoning
campaign may be anticipated.
The remainder Of the ticket is
made up in a very much better
manner than in the earlier stages
of the convention seemed likely.
For treasurer the selection of
Mr.. Piefstorf will be especially
pleasing to the people Of Dane
county, who have already evinc-
ed the high esteem in which he is
held by honoring him with pub
lie Office. He enjoys in the fullest
measure the confidence of his &C
quaintances and is q sturdily
honest man who as state treas
urer would perform the duties of
that office with scrupulous fdel-
ity.
Harry I. Weed nomination as
attorney general was another Of
the fortunate eventualitie of the
convention. Mr.. Weed is of the
younger democracy,-a brilliant
growing man with a high repu-
tation at the bar and deserving
fully all the bright hopes which
his friends cherish of him. He is
enthusiastic and popular and
will make brilliant and effective
campaign.
Col. c. M. Butt. nominee for
secretary of state, is man
quite as widely known as that of
any found on the ticket. It is a
name too, synonymous with
rugged honesty ond the utmost
independence It is a somewhat
curious coincidence that he
should come into competition
for the office for which he has
been named with one of his own
townsmen, Col. Casson.
The ticket also includes the
name Of Cleary-a patroymic
well-known and greatly respec
cd throughot Wisconsin, where
t has pro1l standing ia s.v>c..
al of the professions.

SILVER DOLLARS IN r1EXICO.
Iowa Man, by Affidavit, Atctacks the
Mexican Silver Example.

LIES 1O11CS, iowa, aug OIL
H. Kennedy, a former resident OF
Iowa, has attacked the state
ments 50 generally made regard
ing Mexico and silver by making
the following affidavit before E.
H. English, notary public at
Valley Junction:
II, James II. Kennedy, now a
resident Of the town Of Sinola,
in the state of Sinola, Mexico, do
solemnly swear that ! am an
American by birth; that | served
three years in the 7th Iowa dur
ing the civil war; that | have al
ways been a republican; that |
have resided in Mexico for TWEEN
ty-fve years; that I speak the
Spanish language as well or bet
ter than I now do the English. |
have travelled through twenty
four Of the tWenty-seven states
in Mexico in an official capacity
and as interpreter for numerous
syndicates. / have had access to
almost all the archives of that
country. am better acquaint-
ed with the customs of that
country than am of my mother
country. / left Mexico on the I'd
day of March, 1896; coming to
this country to visit my friends,
relatives and old comrades.
During the last month in Iowa
| have heard more absurd and
utterly false statements made
in regard to Mexico than ever
could be conjured up by mortal
man, all to deceive the voter.
Zone most heard is that you
can take one American silver
dollar into Mexico and get two
Mexican silver dollars for it, or
that you can get a 5O-cent meal
and throw down an American
dollar and they will give you
back in change "a Mexican dol
lar. | brand this as utterly false
in every respect, a lie manufact-
ured out of whole cloth. / assert
that Mexican will not accept
an American dollar, either gold,
silver orpaper, for any amount
but will refer you to broker,
where you can sell your silver
dollars as bullion for Mexican
money, then they illtrade with
you The largest hotel in the
City OF Mexico will not accept
American money under any cir
cumstances but will invariably
refer you to a broker.
"By paying the n1intage any
one can take silver bullion to
either Of the minis in Mexico
aud get Mexican silver dollars
for it, and $50 years silver bull
ion has never fuctuated up or
down to exceed two cents.
II hear it asserted that the ma
tional debt is payable in gold. /
brand this as utterly false. Every
dollar Of the debt, $146, 100000,
is and always has been payable
in the lawful money of that
country, and we are now paying
our debt in Mexican silver dol
lars, the money of the contract.
II assert that Mexico in the
present decade is making strides
of advancement greater than any
other nation on earth. Twenty
five years ago we had 80 miles
Of railroad, now we have near
5000 miles of railroad. We are
bu lding factories onevery hand.
Twenty EIGHT years ago, when
the French army was driven out.
the Mexican government was
left penniless, not dollar in the
treasury. We can now pay our
entire national debt any day a
demand would be made.
Il am now on my way to
Mexico to spend the rest of my
life. Any one can FIND me by adj
dressing a letter to James A.

Dunn has had three crews of cruissrs
and land examiners in the field, during
the past two months, looking over the
state lands in the extreme northern part
Of the state, and extending west from
the northwestern part OF st. Louis
county, along the International boun-
Diary line westward across ST. Louis,
Itasca and Beltrami counties. This ter
ritory is Of vast extent and has hereto
fore never been visited BY the state
cruisers. ..ss. . u q.
1t was suspected that the rich timber
belt in the northeast part Of ST. Louis
county had suffered from the depreda-
tons Of unscrupulsus lumbermen and
the result has justified Mr.. Dunn u sus-
picions. r. F. Mcclellan, the state
cruiser who was sent into this district
six weeks ago, has made his report and
from him the state auditor learned there
had been an actual trespass on state
pine land by one lumber firm amount
ing to 100000 feet Of very valuable
white pine; and in addition the exam
ination has disclosed that on state pine
lands on which logging permits, were
issued, the firm cutting the pine had
failed to report the true amount cut
through the surveyor generals Office.
There are many other depredations
suspected which will be reported upon
when other cruisers return.
