Branner says this is true OF d number OF

that at the least the vote OF the Stanford

favor OF William Mckinley of Ohio, and
that the men who think most on such
questions are the ones who are over
whelmingly in favor of the proposed Re-
publican money policy.

q McKfnLey CIUb.
ORANGE, CAL. Sept. LIT was an
earnest meeting that James G.. Gray,
president of the Mckinley and Hobart
Club, called to order last evening, when
patriotism, protection and prosperity
were expounded. The attendance was
large, and nearly every shade of political

e. E. Keech, who for several past cam
paigns has been the Prohibition nominee
for District Attorney, both residents of
Santa Ana.
During his speech Ballard said that we
had a financial system as good as any on
earth and should keep it. If we had any,
thing to sell and the people wanted it,
there was money enough to buy it with.
He quoted Stephen M White as havin G
said that free coinage of silver was an ex-
pertinent and he was not sure of its out
come. Keech said that if free coinage of
silver was adopted every contract made
would come down to the bullion value of
the metals, and there would be a gold
value and silver value.

Free-for- All Fight in n Gathering of

Free-for All Fight in n Gathering of
SiErer Republicans.
SALT LAKE, UTAH, Sept. 19.-This
was day of conventions in this city, no
fewer than four being held-two Republi-
can, one Democratic ana one Populist.
The latter two were for the nominate of
county officers and passed off quietly.
One of the Republican conven tons was to
elect delegates to the Mckinley Republi-
can State Convention, to be held on Sep
TENDER %, and the other to name dele
gates to the Silver Republican Conven-
ton. This gathering was an exceedingly
lively affair. The committee on resolu.
tons brought in two reports. The ma
jority recommended that the delegates
elected on Friday by the independent or
third wing of the Republicans be chosen
as delegates to the Silver Republican Con-
venJion and the minoritY's report recon-
mended that the convention proceed to
elect delegates in the usual manner.
This precipitated fight on the adoption
of the reports and for a while pandemo-
MUM reigned. Ardent silver men jumped
onto the platform and Selling a large por-
trait of Major Mckinley which adorned
the chairman's table, proceeded to tear it
to pieces. The Mckinley followers rushed
to the rescue of the picture and a free
fight followed, which the sergeants-at-
arms were powerless TO stop. Finally
some of the ringleaders were elected from
the hall and peace was restored. The mi
nority report was adopted by large ma
iority and the business of electing dele
gates proceeded without interruption.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Sept. 19.-Frank
Howard, law librarian of this city,
well-known attorney, babe his wife and
children an affectionate good-by several
weeks ago and started on a trip to some
mines in San Bernardino County. Since
then nothing has been heard of him, not
withstanding the fact that he is overdue
on his return long ago. His continued alb
sence and strange silence have naturally
caused the gravest apprehension on the
part of his wife, who confidently believes
that he has either met with foul play or a
fatal accident. In this emergency Mrs.
Howard gladly accepted the kindly offices
of mining man, who is well acquainted
with the various mining districts of San
Bernardino County, and who started out
yesterday in search of the missing man.
