LANDSBOROUGH DECLINES.
He Cannot Consistently Accept the
Nomination
rendered Him by the Independent
Republican Convention in
This City.

AT the recent convention OF the IN
dependent Republicans in this city,
l.. M. Landsborough, the Populist and
Democratic nominee for Assemblyman
from the Twenty second District, was
indorsed for the Assembly. He has ad-
dressed the following letter to Mark L.
Hunt of the Central Committee, which
will explain itself:
SACRAMENTO, Cal, Sept u, 1896.
Mark t. Hunt, Esq, Member County
Central Committee Independent Re-
publicans'-Dear Sir: Through the me-
dunn of the press / am informed that
at a regularly called convention of the
Independent Republicans Of the Twen-
ty-second Assembly District in this
county. / was selected as their candi-
date for the Assembly representing said
district. For the honor thus conferred
upon me by yourself and other gen.
tlemen composing said convention, l
feel extremely grateful.
That I cannot consistently accept
said nomination you will agree. I am
Populist, and attended the birth Of
that party at Los Angeles in 1891. It's
principles are democratic and consist
ent with good government It's funda-
mental teachings aim at radical re-
forms in land, finance, and transpor-
tatiOn laws On these points the Pop
ulist and the Democratic platforms do
not now materially differ, and our
nominee for President, W. j. Bryan,
stands as sponsor for both parties. For
these reasons Populists gladly accept
the issue of free silver as common
fighting ground against the single
standard Of gold
Sixteen to one has always been a
part of their creed. If I am correctly
informed, the convention of "Independ-
ent Republicans" was called for the
purpose of re-echoing the sentiments of
the Republicans Of this county in favor
of free silver" as originally eX-
pressed in their State Convention, and
subsequently suppressed at ST. Louis,
while in the platform adopted by your
convention I find no recognition or
mention of silver. Further than this,
you pledge and instruct your nomi-
nees for the Senate and Assembly to
vote for a Republican United States
Senator" while the logical and recog
nized candidate of the Republican
recognized gold man, and has SO ex-
pressed himself repeatedly.
Feeling, therefore, the ute rinaptitude
Of my position on your platfrom, which
I cannot indorse, and again thanking
you for your kindness in my behalf,
and respectfully declining said nomina-
ton, l am yours sincerely,
L. NJ. LANDSBOROUGH.

to speak and the lame to walk. Had
Joseph been an imposter he would not
have dared make such promises, for
nothing could have been more disas-
trous to his schemes than to have prom
ised gifts and blessings not in his pow
er to bestow. Those signs did fol-
low the believers and they have contin-
ued with the church ever since, and it is
in perfect accord with the promises
formerly made by Jesus unto the be-
levers.
The gospel of the kingdom, as taught
by the Savior, was to be restored in the
latter days and heralded unto all ma
tions as witness of the near approach
of Christ, to prepare the people to meet
the Lord Through Joseph Smith this
has been restored, and we are doing
what we can to make the people bet
ter and unite them in our Masters S

WORSE YET AT FAYETTE
Mob In Mood to beat the Candidates

Bonneville, Mo, Oct. 31.-At Fayette
Generals Palmer and Buckner received
even worse treatment than at Paris,

upon the car platform than a Bryan
banner, bearing the inscription: Fay

pulled down by the crowd. After FIVE
minutes of fighting, screaming and toot-
Ing horns the train pulled out, without
the candidates even attempting to make
a speech. Most OF the rioters were young
men and belonged to the so-called Fay
cite Democratic club. They wore high
white hats with Bryan's name inscribed
thereon, AMI white badges Most If
them seemed to belong to the well-to-do
| element.
Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Buckner, who
were accompanying the candidates, We're
witnesses OF the scenes of disorder.
Aboard the tIain the party showed the
utmost surprise at the treatment accord
ed. said General Buckner: "All through
Iowa We were treated with great cour-
tcsy | did not believe we would be
shown such dlsrespect in Missouri"
The Central college boys ran after the
train as 1t pulled out OF Fayette. and
with loud cries begged the generals to
believe that had they known of the plan
they would have stopped it with the aid
of the good citizens and the old soldiers.
AT other points along the line the par
ty was greeted by respectful crowds,
and the remainder of the trip to Kan,
sas City, which place was reached this
evening, was made without incident.

THE STAMP COLLECTORS.

The Chinese use the ordinary can.
celed postage stamps in the cons:ruc!
tion of screens, forming beautiful com.
hinations with these little bits of cor
ored papers.
The original issue of United States
stamps was of two colors-Srown five
cent and black ten-cent stamps. Since
then there has been variety, includ-
ing blue, green, pink. vermillion, yell
low. cnrInine, orange and purple.
Some time after confederation the
federal government of Canada ascer
tained that certain persons were buy
ing large quantities of bill stamps (the
third issue was in use at this tiLnc)
in Nova Scotia and sending them to the
other provinces, there being a differ
enee of about 2 1-3 per cent. between
the Canadian and Nova Scotia curren'
cy. To prevent this an order in council
was passed, ordering that all bill
stamps for use in Nova Scotia should be
surcharced with the letters IN. s."

THE CROP OF APPLES.
raId to he 5o.OOO,O 900 Barrels Against 60
100000 Barrels Last Year.

100000 Barrels Last Year.
NEW YORK, Oct. 30 Throughout the
states of chief commercial production,
including New England and New
York, the crop of winter apples is
large. according to the special report
in the New England Homestead,
which places the aggregate yield at a
shade uuder 59,OOO,00O barrels for all
of the United States, against 60, 500, 900
barrels in 1895 and $1,000, 900
barrels two years ago. This au
thority says the crop in New En-
gland, New York, Michigan and parts
of a few other states is phenomenal.
New England and New York have over
100000 600 barrels, against little more
than 1000, 900 a year ago, while Mich!-
gan is harvesting the greatest crop OF
fine fruit ever secured in that state.
The report covering the central west,
however, shows that in many instances
the crop is insufficient to supply
home requirements The Canada crop
is among the largest on record. Elk
ports from the Atlantic coast are al
ready 1,00O,0 900 barrels, third more
than all of last year, and the foreign
markets have n capacity for absorbing
further vast quantities before spring.
