CONSENT OF MY OWN CON
SCIENCE
70 stay in the convention and passively
acquiesce in fastening upon the people
OF this country by adopting this plat
form, system of finance which. in my
humbee Judgment, will result in the
lmpoverishment of the producing
classes. in defeating the rights and
opportunities of labor to receive con-
dnuous remunerative employment, and
TO that extent denying to the citizens
OF this country the rights which they
as free men, under the laws of a free
government, ought to have. Therefore
with full knowledge of the Importance
OF my act, thoroughly appreciat ting it's
magnitude, l say here and now that
l prefer to follow the lead of that
splendid combination of heart, brain,
conscience and courage, who sits az
your left, Henry NJ. Teller, than to fol-
low the leadership of John Sherman
and the modern leaders of Republican
faith into the gold standard camp of
Grover Cleveland"
Lennon, California, advocated the
Teller amendment strongly. He in
sisted that with the majority report as
the declaration of the party, their
plurality of 10000 in his state would
not only be wiped out, but the masses
would become alienated from the party
Indefinitely.
While Mott and Lennon were vigor-
Guy as could be in protesting against
the pressure" of gold standard, they
dld not state in their speeches they
would go out of the convention with
Teller They did state, however. to
members of the committee afterward
that they would all stand by Teller.
ana II defeated in the convention
would declare themselves out of the
party and do the best they could for
their people hereafter.
AT $40 the full committee adopted
the platform as whole and decided
to report ii to the convention at s o. m.
tonight The silver members retired
for conference and the platform was
therefore adopted as whole unani-
mously on viva voce vote.

VIII Go out I'M a BODY.

ST. LOUIS. June, 1.-THE Colorado
delegation held a meeting tonight and
decided in positive terms to leave the
convention in a body upon the adop-
ton of the platform containing
declaration for a gold standard 1t has
been frequently announced that they
would pursue this course, but there
has really been more or less doubt up
to tonight that they would, one or two
members of the delegation being in
doubt as to the wisdom of the course
Senator Teller was present and told
the other members of the delegation
that he appreciated to the utmost the
gravity of the step and that notwith-
standing their instructions to be gov
erned by his opinion he felt the oc-
casion was one which every man
should be guided largely by his own
opinion.
The decision to go out of the con-
vention was unanimous.
The Idaho delegation as a body,
majority of the Utah and Nevada dele
cations. and part of the Montana and
North Carolina delegations will go out
with the Colorado men.

vICE-PRESIDENCY.
A. PERFECT T'HREE-COR NERED
FIGHT Is Now ON.
ouay-Lodge- AIger-PIatt Combina-
ton is Admitted to Be Very
Strong and Their Chances of Win
ming Good.

ST. LOUIS. June 1.-THE vice. resi-
Dental situation bids fair to take the
convention out of the featureless rut
which has so far marked the session.
1t is tonight as perfectly a three-cor-
nered fight as has been seen in a long
while, and although Platt adherents
claim that If Morton wants it, he
can have it, it is, nevertheless patent
that they feel that Mr.. Reed would be
a candidate if his consent to make the
race was obtained.
The New Jersey delegation, with
their candidate, Garrett A Hobart, are
campaigning actively for him and have
obtained the support of the Miller ele-
ment, nor is this latter dismayed at
the P1att calm of victory for their
candidate. 1t is asserted by them to-
night thar they will effect a combina-
ton that Will destroy Morton's, chances.
Evans adherents are not out of the
race, and the portion of the Ohio dele
cation that is adverse ito Platt and
Morton are working energetically to-
night The confidence of the Platt
men tonight is, however, trifle dis
couraging to mere incipieut booms, be-
cause it is thoroughly we'll known
that MIR. Plata will never stand a
second beating and will not put Mr..
Morton in the race for vice-presddent
unless he is positive he has enough
votes to elect him.
Mark Hanna, McKinley's manager,
still retains his silence as to which
side of the New York state controversy
he will endorse. claiming chat until his
candidate receives the nomination, it
would be both unwise and unpolitic for
him 60 do SO. Miller men are sure
that he will not, under any circum-
stances, aid Mr.. Plat, and Plat him
self believes this and has no fault to
find with Mr. Hanna's course, seeing
that the Miller people We're his chief
upholders in New York state. Put the
Quay-Lodge-A lger-Plate comt --4ation
is very strong tonight, and their prob
ability of winning seems bright.

FARM NOTES..

Much If not most of the alfalfa hay
is allowed to stand until too ripe The
stems become woody and unpalatable.
The leaves or blades dry up and are
lost in handling. A part of the fiber,
digestible earlier in the life of the
plant, becomes indigestible and worth
less. The best hay, particularly for
dairy and beef stock, is made from
lucern cut just before the bloom, it
then makes hay that is both more
palatable and nutritious. Hay is fire.
quently much injured by letting it lie
in the sun too long after cutting. Ex-
cessive drying makes it hard and brit
tie. If it is raked and put at once into
a stack, it will have to be pretty
thoroughly dried. But If the hay is TO
be cooked. rake as soon as this can
be done, and place in medium-siz
cocks, where it will cure nicely with
out bleaching. 1t can then be stacked,
or stored in the NOW. Cured in this
manner, it will be of the first quality
soft, green, palatable, and highly d.
gestible.

The time to cut oats is when they
are fully ripe says a recent bulletin
of the Kansas experimental station.
There was a loss of one-third in weight
of the grain by cutting the oats when
in the dough. and loss of one-fifth
in weight of grain by cutting the oats
in the hard dough. as compared to
cutting when fully ripe.

For economical and other reasons,
1t is well, in providing hay for winter
use, to grow osme other crop to feed
with lucern. FEEDING alfalfa alone is
wasteful. as the hay contains too
large proportion of protein, the most
valuable constituent of food. and by
feeding nothing but alfalfa much Of
this is wasted. To secure the best re-
suits, says Professor E. o. Wooton,
of the New Mexico EXP. Station, it
should be fed with some coarse
fodder such as corn slower or any
grass hay. and some fat containing
grain.

A leading fruit grower of Missouri
killed peach tree borers in 1894 and
again in 1895 by digging the dirt away
so as TO expose the spur roots at the
top of the ground and using the dirt to
form basin about the tree extending
six or eight inches above the ground
level, and then filing this basin with
boiling hot water. This kills every
worm in the roots. and does not injure
the tree in the least. The worms crawl
out before dying. He asks those who
are afraid, 20 try it on one or two
trees and be convinced
1t is impossible TO use too much care
with a view of securing cleanliness in
the dairy.

A German authority says that the
stubble and roots of an acre of a heavy
crop of red clover weigh over three
tons and contain $50 pounds nitrogen,
seven pounds Of phosphoric acid and
seventy-seven pounds of potash. This
nitrogen was gathered from the air,
and the phosphoric acid and potash
were brought up from the sub-Soi1,
where ordinary plants could not have
reached it. These elements in the form
