Not Expected TO Develop Much Moro
Strength mt st. Louis than mt Minneapolis.
In the canvass preceding the Minneapolis Con-
~vention of June. 1892, the sllrerite Republicans
who had found Benjamin Harrison n bar to the
adoption of any bill favored by the Mining S. n
ators were strenuous In their opposition to his
denomination or to the acceptance OF any can
didate believed to share his views on the coinage
question. Their forces were well organized, for
the Republican silver Senators had not. up to
that time. allied themselves. as some of them
did afterward, with the Populist party. forego-
ing thereby influence with or control Of the Re-
publican party machinery In their respcc-
tive States. They presented no candidate
Of their own for the consideration Of
the support of Mr.. Blaine as furnishing the
most desirable means OF encompassing the de-
feat of Gen. Harrison for denomination. Colo
RADIO gave its eight votes solidly to the Maine
statesman. and Idaho gave her six, Nevadn's
he received also four Of the six votes OF South
Dakota. and two OF the six votes Of Wyoming, a
more than nine hundred delegates. Those sill

Minneapolis Convention Senator Carter was
Commissioner Of the Land ONCE by appoint
ment of the President in March. 1901. and his
influence was cast for Mr., Harrison with the
Montana delegation. which, though strongly
partial TO the cause OF free silver. was for Har-
rIson in tho Convention; Mr., Harrison also re-
ceived the votes of Utah two and New Mexico
six bringing his total In the silver States, so
called, TO twenty-four. which was not far he
hind Mr.. Blaine's total, Notwithstanding the
sanguine claims and professions OF the ardent
and enthusiastic silverites.
The basis Of representations at the st. Louis
Convention will be substantially the same as at
the Republican National Convention at Mime
apOlis four years ago except that Utah. instead
OF having two votes in the Convention Rs n Ter
ritory, will have six as a State. but it does not
appear Ia he probable that the silverlte Rcpub-

their cause, at least in s%nficient number TO ma

of his Imprisonment should not begin until
the lst Of January of this year. The rest of
the story is told in the Presidents endorse

"Grantcd. This prisoner was sentenced 10
three months Imprisonment, to begin Jan. l.
1896. At that day he reported at the Jail for
