Silver in Europe.

Senator Teller says that the action
of the British Parliament on the silver
question is encouraging. 1t was long
step in advance, and contradicts the
assertion frequently made by the advo-
cases Of the gold standard that silver is
losing ground in Europe.
"No one expects England to open
her minis for the unrestricted coinage
of silver" said he, "but what has oc-
cured in the British Parliament within
the last few days is gratifying to those
who wish she would do SO. Itindicates

Arranging Plans.

Gen. A. J. Warner, Hon. Thomas G.
Merrill and Hon. FL. F. Bartine, three
of the most prominent leaders in the
advocacy of bimatallism, met in Salt
Lake City this week, to confer with sill
yer men there and will also visit other
cities in the West to arrange for sill
yer campaign. Mr.. Merrill outlined
the program to be adopted, as follows :
at is our intention" said Mr.. Mer-
rill, s'to so perfect our organization
that we will secure bona-fide silver del
egates who will attend the National
conventions, with the purpose in view
of securing in the party platforms BIZ
metallic plank of 16 to l, without regard
to any other nation, and nominate men
whose past records will insure the car
rying out of such plank in good faith.
Should we be ignored, we will then i'm
mediately hold bimetallic convention
and nominate candidates of our own,
irrespective of party affiliations. We
will also elect them in the event that
the actions of the two old parties com
pei us to organize an independent sill
YER party"
Mr.. Merrill further said that it was
the intention to organize in every To-
cality, SO that each State could look
after its own pro rata of the work.
