THE COLISEUM.
Its Acoustic Properties Satisfactorily
Tested Saturday

CHICAGO, July 5.-All doubts as to
the acoustic properties of the Coliseum
building, in wnfcA the Democratic Con-
vention is TO be held, have been settled.
Until yesterday fears had been express
ed because Of the vastness of the inte-
rior, that not more than a small pro-
portion Of the audience would be able
to gather an idea Of the proceedings.
Yesterday, however, the great war
song concert, held in furtherance of
the scheme to erect a monument to the
late DIR. George f. Root, dispelled all
these fears Not only the choruses but
the solos and also the memorial ad-
dress delivered by the Hon. Luther Laf-
lin Mills were heard perfectly in all
parts of the great structure. The audi
ence was as large as will be gathered
during any of the convention sessions

TELLER MEN CONFIDENT.
THEY CLAIM NO OTHER SILVER
MAN CAN BE ELECTED.
Insist That They Shall Have Pro-
pOrtionate Share i'm the Admin
istratiOn if He Is.

CHICAGO, July 5.-Tellers friends
are growing more confident. They have
prepared statement showing the
number of electoral votes he could Sc
cure and are using it with the delegates
in Teller's behalf. Congressman Bailey
Of Texas, a delegate at large and one
of the Bland leaders, has also prepared
statement giving the number of
electoral votes the Democrats may
hope to secure, but his figures fall far
below those prepared by the Teller fac
ton. The two statements have been
compared and the Teller people are say
ing that the Bland men and supporters
Of other candidates pledged to free sill
Yer are very much impressed with Tel
ler's alleged strength.
The Teller statement gives the Colo
1ado man 256 electoral votes, while
Baileys foots up only 107. The Teller
men have been very frank with the
Democratic silver leaders. They will
not concede the right of the Democratic
party to dictate the entire programme
to be followed in the event of the Col
orado Senator's nomination and cleo
ton and are trying to reach an under
standing on these points before the
convention assemblies. One of the most
prominent Teller men, who has been in
frequent conference with the Demo-
cratic leaders, told United Press re-
porter to-day that the Teller people
would not consent to any proposition
as to the position they would occupy
in the event of his election, except such
as would give them a proportionate
share in the administration of the Gov
eminent, based on the number of cleo
toraf votes they secured for the candi-
date
Teller's friends insist that he is the
only man who can carry the country
for free silver 1t is on this distinct and
broad statement that they base their
demands on the Democratic silver
leaders. They are endeavoring to eff
feet an agreement with the Democratic
leaders as to the platform on which
Teller can make the race. They want,
of course. to make the financial plank
the main feature and subordinate
everything else to it.
1.-THE platform will be satisfactory to
everybody" said Representative Hart
man of Montana, who bolted the ST.
Louis Convention with Teller and who
is here looking after the Teller inter
ests "Nobody can find fault with it,
and II Teller is nominated as he Will
be, it will sweep the country
Federal office holders are beginning
to come in, but whether or not they
will take any part in the proceedings
has not vet developed.
Last nights mass meeting of the gold
men was a remarkable demonstration
from the standpoint of attendance and
of the noted men who spoke or were

Senator Hill is causing much comment.
Mr. Hill was asked to attend and make

to do either. Rumors as to his reasons
for declining to serve are numerous.

Condition Of The COuntaY.

Tom Forrest, an old time prospector,
formerly of Virginia City, who has been
troveling through California by wagon
with three or four companions, says the
grape growers pay white pickers 80
cents per day and Chinese 92 cents.
That in the mining communities a
large majority of the miners are Aus
trians, Hungarians and Firms who work
for low wages, and particularly they are
the employees of Hobart 4 Lane, the
latter the much-talked- about Charlie.
Grass Valley and Nevada City have
more more miners than can be employed
and the wages just about allow man
to live. In these last mentioned dis
tricts the people are to a man for Bryan
| figuring that in case the Democrats are
successful the exComstock miners will
return to the Comstock and ease the
situation. Los Angeles is overcrowded
with idle men and competition in busi-
ness matters and labor is OF the cut
throat variety. Three cans of fruit for
% cents; bath, hair cut and shave
for 15 cents; cracked wheat cents per
pound; -four, 80 cents per sack; pickles,
5 cents per quart, etc.
In Riverside the good land is all owned
by rich Englishmen and outside of their
orchards they rent to Chinese who raise
all the vegetables for town consumption.
White people who pick oranges have to
live on the fruit while they are picking
it because their low pay will not permit
them to live otherwise.
The soldiers home at Santa Monica is
crowded to it's doors.
At Redlands and the surrounding
towns the condition of the laboring
people who have to compete with the
Chinese and Japs is deplorable.
Tom says it is "a hard game to make a
living and his hands look it.

pioneer days in the west, when fabulous
prices were paid for common necessities.
By the ratio of economical compensation
those were the days when the poor man
grew rich. To-Day the working man re-
ceives poorer wages because times are
hard.
1t reminds me of u story: A vicious
cur was tugging ma liciousiv at the coat
tails OF an innocent passer-by. The dog
snarled and snapped in a most danger
GUS and terrifying manner.
Look here; you young rascal, why
don't you call your dog off? exclaimed

stood by with party of friends.
No, sir, replied the young man, cant
do it sir, on principle. 1t may be hard
lnck on you. don't gainsay it, but

tion."
