CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 8, 1898.
Hon. Glen Miller. United States Mar
shall. Salt Lake City, Utah-My Dear Sir:
I have been informed that 10 has been
suggested that the Republican party Of
Utah. at the next State convention. en-
dorse in its platform the free coinage Of
silver. As Chairman Of the National
Committee, charged with the duties Of the
position, I protest against the Republicans
Of any State taking such action. II would
be clearly in opposition to the principles
Of the party as declared In the platform at
the National Convention at 81. Louis. ard
I trust you will use your influence and
efforts 70 the end that that declaration
may be sustained. Truly yours.

WAS PAIRED.

In commenting on an article from the
Eureka SENTINEL relative to the resolu-
tion a~nnexing Hawaii. the Appeal said :
The next thing in order 10 for some one
TO tell the people Of Nevada why Senator
Jones voted against the resolution and
why Senator Stewart did not vote ct oil
on the question.
A subsequent investigation Of the vote
on the adoption Of the resolution in the
Senate shows that Senator Stewart was
paired in favor of the resolution with
Senator Mills Of Texas who voted against
ID. This correction il made in justice TO
the Senator. The Appeal thought at the
time that il was strange that his name
did not appear in the tsbulated vote, but
failed to examin ne the pairs.
The paragraph conveyed the impress.
sion that the Senator had lodged the
question, . thing which he has not the
reputation of ng.-Carson Appeal.

OF ores more profitable TO their owners,
while giving the producer q better rate on
the treatment Of his ores. II Ii estimated
that these improvements have involved
An expenditure Of no less than 100000
but that the companies will be fully oom-
pensated the various managers feel as
sured.
An officer Of one Of the smelters. in dis
cussing the changes that have taken place,
Yesterday said that in his opinion it would
enable the companies to do the work at .
reduction of ct least Is per cent, ss COM
pared with the schedule OF 9 year ago,
while the improved equipment OF the
plants would enable them TO successfully
compete with similar plants in any por-
ZION of the country. From the improve
ments the producer Is deriving q steady
benefit. The best denomination Of this
is the quality Of ore now being handled.
The standard Of value which was required
Of the producer Q year ago has been, IN
his opinion, reduced at least 20 per cent
Ores thss were thrown upon the dunn
twelve months ago are now affordine
their owners good margin. and prediction
il made that il will be still further
lowered. The outlook for Q 'better IN
d~erstanding" between producer and
smelter ia most gratifying, in his judg

10 double their tonnage.

1 am fully determined not to support

committed to the gold standard, but ell
the Republican State and CONCESSIONS

Fusion with the Mckinley party or
support of it's adherents is inconsistent
with our repeated declaration that the
silver question IL the great question IN

There was quite a commotion last week
in political circles over the discovery
that certain State officers had arranged 70
run q primary ticket to elect delegates 70
the State convention pledged, not to
county candidates, but TO candidates in
other counties, and that certain Republi-
cans were directing the deal. The Ormsby
county Silver men swear that II such q
scheme is consummated they will run q
candidate In this Silver State ticket by
petition against every State candidate who
has a hand in the deal. Ormsby county
can run its primaries without meddling
from the outside.-Carson Weekly.
