1t is the belief of the Spaniards that
after the election Mckinley will agree to
assume part of the debt of Spain either
on Cuba or the Philippine islands, hence
the holding off of the Spanish Peace
Commissioners.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1898-11-04

The repeated assertion of the Repub-
lican press that the President will assume
10 portion of the Spanish debt is suspic-
ious. Mr.. Mckinley has way of doing
ANYTHING bond holders ask him to do.

mendous applause. The Marine band

MISSOURI POPULISTS
THE TWO FACTIONS REACH AN
AGREEMENT
A State Ticket Nominated-Split on
the Proposition Of War Reve-
nues-Two Platforms

ST. LOUIS, Mo-. July 1.-THE Populist
party of Missouri split on fusion lines and
two state conventions are being held here
today. Chairman Arthur Roselle called
the regular convention to order with abou,
100 delegates present. Owen Miller of st.
Louis was elected chairman. He denounced
the action of ex-Committeeman Long for
trying to secure an order restraining the
state committee from refusing him admis-
sion to it's councils and declared such ac-
ton utterly opposed to the precepts of the
Populist party. The speaker repudiated
the middle of the-roaders and declared
that they were being led on by the Repu-
lican party. After being in session about an
hour, the convention took recess to ell
able the committees to prepare their re-
ports. The observation-disclosures organ
lied by electing S. A. Rider of Springfield
as chairman. About the same number of
delegates was present here. The two fac
tons of the Populists adjourned their sep
arate conventions tonight. After they drew
apart this morning to different halls, the
manifested bitter feeling ceased and con-
ventional business went along smoothly.
The regular ticket follows:
Supreme judges-McCall for short term;
Handy for long term.
Railroad commissioner, j.. r. Finch.
Superintendent of schools, J. D. Elf.
Arthur Rosele, Owen Miller and W. Lit
tell were selected as members of the no.
tional committee.
Railway and warehouse commissioner.
J. H. Hills, Harrison county.
The regular committee on resolutions re-
ported platform reaffirming the principles
adopted by the Omaha and st. Louis con-
ventions, declaring money for carrying on
the war with Spain should be obtained by
the coinage of silver and the issue Of legal
tender notes, and not by an enormous in
crease In taxation and enlargement Of the
public debt.
The platform OF the middle-of-the-road-
ers favors the issue of full legal tender
paper money to pay the expenses of the
war, and is unalterably opposed to the is
suance of interest bearing bonds in time of
peace or war, and Endorses the Omaha plat
form

Advice on Pruning.

If pruning is done properly, no tools
will ever lie necessary except a sharp
pruning knife. but if neglected or too
many main limbs are allowed to grow
the saw will have to be used in a few
years. IL is desiratle To make nice,
smooth, even cut, and TO do this the
knife should follow the shoulder that is
noticeable at the junction of the limb
TO another or to the main stem, ana the
surface Of the cnt should be no larger
than the base Of the branch removed.
Draw the blade inward little at the
upper side. Avoid leaving a sharp stub
from which a new shoot may start. Do
not make the cut too close. When the
saw must be used on heavy limb, saw
little on the underside first, so that
the weight Of the limb as it falls will
not split or peel the bark. 1t is neces-
sary to paint the wound made by prun-
ing with white lead and linseed oil, to
which may be added little lampblack,
if desired, to give darker effect.-Re-

Best Side OF a Cemetery.

Probably few people know that there
is "a choice side to every cemetery. Thus,
in some parts Of the world, the eastern
portion, without regard to its situation,
is always deemed the most desirable.
This preference arises from the old ira
dition that our Lord will appear from
the east. It is also believed that the
dead in the eastern portion will be the
first to rise, then those in the southern,
western and northern in order.
In England it was once the custom Of
laying felons and other bad characters
ON the north side of the church. The
custom of laying the dead in certain
