Mr.. Quigg moved that Mr.. Hirsch's
motion be laid on the table. Messrs.
Buttling and Worth jumped up and de-
manded roll call When the borough
of Manhattan was reached, Mr., Quigg
said he was instructed to cast 191 votes
In the affirmative.
Mr.. Woodruff instructed the secreta-
ry not to call the roll of the First and
Second districts of Brooklyn, where the
contests were. Sheriff Buttling de-
manded that his name be called.
Cries of "Sit down, sit down." greeted
Mr.. Buttling.
'I viii when1 get through" said Mr..
Buttllng.
When Worths name was called, he
arose and denounced the ruling Of the
chairman. II do not care about being
cheered," he said when the cheers of
his friends had subsided. II have been
hissed as often as have been cheered,
and do not know Of anything l have
done to deserve one more than the 9TH
err" He went on 10 denounce the re-
port of the committee as unfair. He
spoke of Platt as the man who presses
the button and all obey the orders of
the button. At this point the PlRtt men
yelled. "Sit down." but Worth kept on.
He said that the delegates had been
regularly elected, and when a dispute
was sprung he had expected the COM
mittee to do> just what 1t had done
He understood that they had assembled
to hold q convention to nominate can
didates and not 70 elect new delegates.
When the roll call was finished. the
vote was announced as 3Ol to 46 and
the motion Of Mr.. Hirsch was laid on
the table. The report Of the committee
on contested seats was then adopted.
The platform was presented and
adopted. II indorsed the St. Louis

THE contrast between the gold sur
plus since the new administration
came in and that during the Cleve-
land administration is very remark
able. Mr.. Cleveland was compelled
to sell hundreds of millions of dol
lars worth of bonds to keep mp the
reserve, while the Treasury De-
partment has just notified the Sub
treasurer of New York that it has
all the gold it needs and that he
need not make any effort whatever
to add to the accumulation.

Democratic league, one Of the organ
lzations which has been fighting stren-
uously to compel Tammany Hall to
nominate a free silver man for mayor
The purpose of the convention last
night doubtless was to force Tammany
to nominate a free silver man. No one
seemed TO know just what Henry
George would do, but Charles Freder-
ick Adams said he thought that Mr..
George would wait until all the con-
ventions are held and then accept this
nomination If there remained sufn-
Client reason to make a protest.
The delegates seemed to take II for
granted that Mr.. George would accept
If Tammany Hall does not nominate a
free silver candidate.

SOME curiosity has been expressed
to know how it was that ex- -candi-

not taking the public into their con-

PROSPERITY.

OF this we can be sure: Some of
the foundations of prosperity have
been laid broad and deep, and it can
not be long before the superstruc-
ture will begin to rise, a superstruc-
ture worthy of the past and worthy
of a world which, however it may
seem to falter, is always steadily
advancing toward richer prosper
ity and a greater civilization. -

The value of n breed may be of
but little Importance to those who
regard one animal as good as an
other, but the fact that, while there
is a decrease of about $4,000, 900
sheep in Australia compared with
three years ago, the wool clip has
increased, which is proof that there
is a profit in breeds. The hocks have
been culled every year with a large
increase of wool product in conse-

Contracts for furnishing postal
cards for the next four years are
about to be let, and the figures in
this connection are nothing short of
stunning. 1t is estimated that the
government will require $500, ,000,- =
900 postal cards in four years, weigh
ing 1000 tons and requiring 400
freight cars for their transporta-
tion. The lowest bid submitted is
in the neighborhood of $1,000 A
Washington dispatch announces
that West Virginia forests will
probably furnish the timber for
these cards, and quite an area of
woodland will be denuded of trees
to make up the required quantity.
This will also furnish employment
for large number of people, and is
in every way a strictly immense af-
fair.-Stockman and Farmer.
