In the Richfeld Advocate Of
June "a, we find an account Of
case of poisoning at a wedding
feast, at Panguitch, Utah, which
caused the death of one lady and
nearly caused the death of others.
1t is suspected that a young
man named George Davis, who
had previously threatened the life
Of Elliot Hudson, the bridegroom,
was the party who, in connection
his mother Mrs Davis and a
woman named Best, caused the
arsenic to be placed in the beer
that was used at the wedding
In the Southern Censor the
poisoning is denied but in the Ad-
vocate Of July l it is stoutly maint-
tanned by the party who reported
the affair, that even the Doc
tor had drank some of the
beer and announced that it had
been poisoned.
Ii there is any truth in il
we hope the guilty parties will be
speedily brought to justic,

Saturday, July IS, 1896.

Now that the majority of the
Democrats at the Chicago Conven-
ton have come out and made their
declarations in favor of silver and
have embodied a silver plank in
their platform; also nominated
silver men for president, and vice
president, it looks as if they are
in earnest and mean to do honor to
their country and we sincerely
hope they will.
There is one thing that we think
ought to be done, and that is, for
all silver men, no matter what
their party affiliations. to join to-
gether and have great convention
and all decide to put up silver men
for president and vice president
and let all the silver people drop
their party feelings and cave to
the silver men and vote for them
at the coming election, so as to
make grand sweep and shut up
evey avenue for any gold-bug to
have even a ghost Of a show to
turn up the winning card in the
end.
We want the free and Unlimited
coinage of silver, and a law max
ing it o legal tender beside gold al
a ration Of Is to l, but we fear un
less there is a united effort of al
the silver men that the gold me-
will eventually win the day, fo
money generally buys almost any
thing and has hitherto bough
many a vote. So let us up and b
doing our duty for ourselves an
the country and the cause of silver

1t is gratifying to know that Hon.
James W. Bucklin, representatives. e-elect
from this county, is pronounced for the
passage OF an effective law at the coming
session OF the legislature in the interest
OF protection Of our orchards from in
fectious diseases. In this matter both
Senator Canon and Representative Buck
lin will work as a unit, and it is time
something practical were done. A call
has been issued for meeting at this
place OF all persons interested in the
horticultural counties, that an intelligent
plan OF operations may be determined
upon and our representatives be the bet
ter able to present the matter in an ef-
fective way before the legislature. II is
OF the utmost importance that every
county be represented, for the future
salvation OF the horticultural interests OF
the Western Slope depend upon prevent
i've measures being taken at the outset
to combat the pests. or in a short time
our orchards will be laid waste. We
hope our neighbors Of Nontrose. Delta
and Garfield counties in particular will
interest themselves in the matter and be
well represented at the meeting on Sat

COMING LEGISLATION.

II the people OF Delta county expect
to get an appropriation for the expert
mental fruit farm they should at once
get to work on the proposition by writ
ing letters to Senator Canon and Repre-
sentative Mcclure, requesting them TO
work to that end. 1t is true that they
have both promised to use their best
endavors in that cause but in order to
succeed they must have something to
show that the people, especially the
heavy tax payers OF this county, are in
earnest in making the request and are
solidly backing them up in their demands.
The Delta County Board OF Trade, the
Town Trustees, the county commits
sioners and every organization interest
ed ought to hold meetings and pass
resolutions setting forth the necessity
for such an appropriation and demand
ing that il should be granted.

Leet'S Selection.

The RECORD endorses the action OF
the county convention, which met III
Ithaca last Saturday, IN selecting W.
A. Leet as It's candidate in the forth
coming congressional convention. MI
Leet has made one OF the best prose
cutting attorneys Gratiot county has
ever had. He is mentally well equipped
for the position TO which the repuDil-
cans of Gratiot county wish TO see MN
chosen, man against whom no talnt
of scandal has ever attached, and re-
publican in whom there Is no guile.
Now that he has been named as The
choice Of the republicans of the county,
all differences should be forgotten, and
the members of the party labor as one
man to bring about his nomination. Ii
this is not done, and Gratiot county
fails to get congressman in the next
election, it may be long time before
so good an opportunity to achieve this
result again presents Itself.
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1896-01-03

The American people have calm
confidence in their military strength.
1t is not based on vast standing armies,
but on a knowledge of what they have
done in past emergencies. They were
not trained for war in 1861, yet within
the next four years carried through the
most deadly conflict of modern times.
They are a peaceful people, prefering
arbitration if it is possible. When
arbitration is rejected, as it has been
by LORD Salisbury, they know their
duty and will never surrender their
honor.

The Detroit Tribune of Monday
gives the Gratiot County Republican
Convention of last Saturday half a
column of uncalled for scorching. To
be sure, the editor Of the Tribune has a
right to his opinion, but we think
him entirely out of his place in allud-
ing to the matter, especially in "A way
which encourages discussion in the
party in this district. GratiUt county
has always been able to run her own
politics, and the balance of the state
never has had reason to be ashamed OF
her majority We probably will
try and get through without asking the
Tribune for any Of its EDITORS advice.

Recent statistics show that the in.

the increase of population in nearly all

indicate a growing disposition to regard
marriage as mere contract, instead of
a sacred union. Can be that the new
woman, with her advanced ideas of
liberty and her improved chances of
self.support is making this change?
