The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-06-29

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 2S.-Sen-
ator Harris left today for Chicago to
be present at tie silver conference
beginning on Tuesday next, under the
auspices of the Democratic Bimetallic
organiza ton. He is chairman of this
organization and has been since it was
Instituted in this city year ago.
Speaking OF the purpose of the con-
ference, Senator Harris said it had
been called in order to afford the
silver Democrats an opportunity to
compare views and look the ground
over together preparatory to the
national convention and that it
would probably continue daily
until the beginning of the con
vention. He also said the meeting
would not be confined to members OF
the bimetallic organization, but that
there would be representatives present
from every state delegation friendly
to silver.
Further than this. the senator de-
clined to commit himself as to the
purpose of the meeting; but it is learn
ed from an authoritative source that
the silver Democrats regard this con-
ference as a very important affair.
The organization under whose
auspices the meeting is called has
been laboring in season and out of
season for the promotion Of the silver
cause within the Democratic ranks.
They have had their headquarters at
Senator Harris house and from that
quarter have conducted correspond
ence with chosen representatives in
all parts of the country, to whom has
been trusted the organization of the
silver forces, not only in every state
but in every county in every state in
the Union, where it was considered
possible TO effect the.
LODGMENT OF A SILVER IDEA.
The movement grew cut of the meet
ing held at the Metropolitan hotel in
this city last summer, in which the
plans were prepared and an executive
committee, consisting of one member
from each state, was appointed. The
work has been quietly but very thor
oughly performed.
The purpose of the ante-conventip
meeting, is to SO solidify the silver
organization, so as to render it thor
oughly effective in the execution of
the plans of the silver leaders in the
convention, and to- also prevent the
encroachment of the gold forces. It
had been their purpose to discuss the
platform to be adopted and also to
consider the advisability of candidates.
There has been much correspondence
bearing upon these two points. The
plan has been to keep candidates in
the background until the conference
could be held, with the view of having
the conference free to choose.
This has proved impracticable and
it is understood the leaders in the
movement fear they will be unable to
control in this matter as they had
at one time hoped they might do They
still hope, however. to be practically
able TO make the platform before the
convention meets

..ThE SILVER LINING"
Whirl of Politics Innusurated in
Chicago in a Novel Manner.

CHICAGO, June e3.-The whirl of poll
tics accompanying the Democratic ma
tional convention was inaugurated tonight
in a novel manner, THE Silver Lining, T"
a play based upon the money issue was
put on the boards at the Grand Opera
house to run until after the convention
is over.
Opinion is divided as to whether or not
the production of the play here at this
time has not more or less of IA political
motive The trend of the play is strongly
pro-silver, and circulars were distributed
quoting endorsements of the piece by we'll
known silver statesmen. public men and
governors of dozen states, including in
the list United States Senators Jones and
Stewart, w. H. Harvey (Coin). Hon. T. NJ.
Patterson, of Denver; Kerr Hardie, Gov
ernor Altgeld and Eugene V. Debs.
The scenes of the play are laid in the
wheat producing section of Pike county,
Illinois, and the piece is a strong pre-
sentation of the different phases of the
money question from a silver standpoint
The play was well received and the
author, a well known newspaper man,
Fitzgerald Murphy, of Boston, was called
before the curtain. He delivered spicy
address and was given a hearty round OF
applause.

coffee, sugar. pork, bacon and hams,
hides, tallow, wool, cotton, wine and
linseed and rapeseed oils. The prin-
cipal imports are fish, lumber and man
ufactures of wood. Fishery and for
est products together constitute more
than two-thirds of the entire export
Norways trade with the United States

Chicago to attend the Democratic ma
tional convention today.

L can for the cause of silver. II is
going to be a great convention-prob-
ably the

is in the cards. The platform will be
for silver, and the ratio will be IS to 1.
The opposition will make a. hard fight,
but it will be useless. The silver men
have their minds made up and will
stand like rock. The public senti-
ment behind these men is so strong
that they would not dare to return to
their respective homes with the guilt
of a compromise on their souls
Senator Martin says that the gold
standard leaders will work for a plat
form which will be all things to all
men.
Such a slopwater platform as Hill
wrote for the New York Democracy

pare the public mind for fiscal change
London, June PA Copenhagen dis
patch to the Times says: The allusion
IN the platform of the st. Louis Repub-
llcan convention to the eXpediency of the
United States purchasing the Danish
West Indies, has created some sensation
here. 1t is believed ST. Thomas is es-
pecially coveted as being likely to afford
an excellent American naval station. The
opinion prevails that Denmark is quite
prepared to sell these small colonies at a.
suitable price.
dilS, uIIe 1o.-hiniie Arton, Implicated
with DR.. Herr and the late Baron Won
Reinach in the frauds on the Panama
Canal company, has been sentenced to six
years at hard labor.
M. Arton disappeared from Paris very
soon after the Panama scandal promised
to be made the subject of a judicial in
curry and was extradited from England
last year. Arton was supposed to be the
go-between of those who paid and
those who received brides to influence
legislation favorable to the company,
and the knowledge he is supposed to
possess involves the welfare of a large
number of people i'm France. He man

by his cleverness in Disgusting himself.
He had long been popular in the salons
of Paris. and as an amateur actor and
the knowledge and skill gained in that
way was made use of to make himself
unrecognizable. His sentence closes an
other chapter in the long story of the
Panama canal scandals.
