MANY rumors of wierd and graphic nature reach us from time 10 time, con- corning the arbitrary tactics that will be adopted ny the Democratic gold wor- shippers to get control of the conten- :ion, or, at least, to prevent the silver wing from controlling. One eastern pa per says that the national committee in preparing the preliminary roll, will put gold delegates on wherever there is a contest, and leave silver delegates eff. It IS also darkly hinted that manufac- tured contending delegations will be provided from such Southern and West ern states in which the regular eonven- tions were overwhelmingly for silver. No doubt but the gold contingent will spread most delectable feast, but-it is not at all certain that they will pre- side.

MAY THIRTIETH.
How the Day Was Observed in
 St. Johns.

SCs C OnnSs On last Saturday, in accordance with the universal custom of the people ot the United States, our citizens ob. served Memorial Day. This was the first time the day was publicly observed in St. Johns. It is the custom for our people to fittingIy and properly cele- brate all the legal holidays of the year, but heretofore the S0th of May has been neglected. In the future, this beautiful custom will be properly ob- served by the people here.
 The exercises were under the direc- ton of committee of Company K, First Regiment. N. G. A., and was com- posed of the following: Captain Walter G. Scott, Lieutenant s. NJ. Craig, Ser geant M. Christiansen, Corporal Mar tin Jensen and Private W. E. Platt. Under the direction of the committee the folloNing programme was prepared, and which was rendered at Assembly Hall, commencing at ? o'clock in the afternoon:
 1--NstiOnal Anthem .............. Band
 2-Prayer Chaplain E. N. Freeman
 S-Address Objects of Celebration
 Captain Walter G. Scott
 4-Song ........... St Johns Glee Club
 5-Memorial Address Orator of Day

 9-Recitaton. .. "Blue and the Gray''

 10-song ............ Judge Willard Farr
 n-Recitation "The Georgia Volunteer"
 Mrs. Susie Penney.
 12-Music c................. By the Band The Assembly Hall was comfortably crowded during the exercises. Joseph B. Patterson presided in his usual dig nified and graceful manner.
 Where the entire programme was so uniformly we'll rendered, it might not be deemed fair to make any special mention, but the participants. one and all, acquitted themselves well. Major H. J. Platt, the orator of the day, de- livered 2 very eloquent address, and it was very apparent that the old veteran was at his best. The other addresses were we'll rendered and equally well re- ceived.
 The recitations of Miss Hunt and Mrs. Penney were excellent. The sing ing of the Glee club, and solo by Judge Willard Farr. were exactly what WAS to be expected of them, and the patriotic airs discoursed by the St. Johns band were we'll executed.
 After the close of the exercises, Con- pany K formed in front of their armory and marched through the principal streets.
 A committee composed of the follow ing ladies proceeded to the cemetery at New Town and decorated the graves sf the soldiers buried there Mrs. Refugia Earth, Mrs. Antonia Gonzales. Misses Elvira Apodaca and Carlotta Earth. The following are the names of the deceased soldiers: Rosalio Colomo, Thomas Perez, J. M. Desch and Serafn Apodaca. The last named was a cor poral in Company K, and who died here last October.
 The committee in charge of the exer- cises of the day desire to express them selves, through these columns, as being 0lNl fo oll fhaco ofi in the observance of the occasion.

 of Control Bounced.
 On last Monday an order of removal was issued by Governor Franklin, di- rected to NJ. H. McCord, citizen mem. Der of the Board of Control, declaring the office vacant. It is said T. J. Wolf ley, editor Of the Phenix Republican, will shortly be appointed to the posi- tion so made vacant.
 The notice of the vacancy reads as follows:
 TERRITORY of ARIZONA, EXECUTIVE OFFICE,l
 PHEEIX, ARIZONA. June ], 1S96- To Hon. NJ. H. McCord, Citizen Member of the Board of Control ofthe Territory of Arizona DEAR sIR-The judgment of the Governor be- ing that the b est interests of the public service will be subserved by you vacating the office aboye.named, which you now hold- and his desire being that the said office be so vacated you are therefore hereby removed from said office. Here of take notice.
 Respectfully, B. J. FRANKLIN,
 Governor of Arizona Colonel McCord joins issue with the Governor in the matter, claiming that the private interests of M. H. McCord would be subserved by his remaining on ii,e Board, while the public service would not be prejudiced thereby.
The St. Johns herald., 1896-06-06

IF the position assumed by Colonel McCord that one member of the Board Df Control cannot discharge another, IS good, then he may be able to hang on to his job. Should the courts decide against him, however, we would sng- gest that he reta!iate by exercising his prerogative as Citizen Member, and fire the Governor of the Board.

America in 1854, and the great, great
Grand father went from New York TO
Bath In l162, when he purchased a
tract of land on which stands the Sc
wall yard and houses of the family to-
day. The grand father of the candi.
date fought in the revolutionary war.
His father began ship building in 1928,
since which time the family has owned
95 vessels.
Arthur Sewall grew up among the
scenes of the shipyard and seashore, &c.
curing a familiarity with the business
life which has served him well, not on
ly in that particular branch, but in
many other lines of mercantile life.
The vice presidential nominee, near
ly twice as old as the head of the tick
ct, is much older than he looks. He is
a splendid example of physical man
hood. His hair and mustache are
slightly tinged with gray, but the
wrinkles of age have scarcely made
their appearance on his face.
Mr.. Sewall was married in 1859 to
Miss Emma D.. Croker, Of Bath. He
has two children living, both of them
sons, Harold NJ. and William D. Sc
wall. Harold was the first consul gen.
eral of the United States to Samoa. In
1885 he was nominated by Consul Rus
sell, at Liverpool, as vice and deputy
consul, and held the office until March,
1887, when he resigned to accept the
Samoan consulship.

There is still considerable of uncer-
tainty regarding the meaning of the
sixteen-to-one agitation in the minds OF
some and the following definition is
given to make this point clear.
"It means in practice that sixteen
ounces of silver should be held as worth
as much as n ounce of gold. One
ounce of gold, American coin standard
OF tineness-that is, nine hundred parts
of pure gold to n hundred of alloy,
will coin in dollars $3.50. Sixteen
ounce of silver, American coin stand
ard of iineness-that is, nine hundred
parts OF pure silver to one hundred of
alloy, at the rate of 4l24 grains to the
dollar 1.-THE weight of the present stand.
ard silver dollar will coin $3.50 in sill
yer dollars. These sixteen ounces OF
silver can be bought in the markets of
the world to-day for 1894. There
would, therefore, be a profit of IS &C on
an investment of 1894, being about 81
per cent, if holder of silver could
take it to the Mint and coin it without
charge into silver dollars. The advo-
Gates of free coinage favor a law that
will allow any holder Of silver bullion
or, in fact, silver of any kind las the
latter can readily be melted into bars
to have the right to take the same Ia
any Mint of the United States and con-
vert it into silver coin free of charge"
