W. II. HARVEY TO HAVE CHARGE.
Predicted He VIII BE at Head Of Bureau
to Secure Information For Dissemina-
tion-Not to shelve siiver-Executive
Committee Meeting.

CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-The following
persons attended the meeting of the
Democratic national executive commit.
tee in this city: Senator j. K. Jones OF
Arkansas, chairman; Charles A. Walsh,
Iowa, secretary; j. ID. johnson, Kan.
sas; II. d. Clayton, Alabama; Thomas
Gahan, Illinois; j. G.. Snanklin, In.
diana; ID. j. Campau, Michigan; W. H.
Thompson, Nebraska; 7. ID. O'Brien,
Minnesota, and Norman 4. Mack, of
Buffalo. who held the proxy of George
Fred Williams of Massachusetts.
1t was the opinion of most of the ex.
eoutive committeeman that the full COM
mittee will be called to meet in Wash
ington Feb. %. and that the national
Democratic convention will be held the
latter part Of May or the first part of
June.
Senator Jones would say nothing
about catling the committee.
The committeeman were extremely
uncommunicative as to what was done
at the meeting. Secretary Charles A.
Walsh said the committee had trans
acted no business of interest or import
ance and had only considered admins
trative affairs. After the meeting had
adjourned, however, some of the com.
mitteemen continued the discussion of
the probable situation next year. They
disclosed the fact that considerable
part of the committees time had been
devoted TO discussing the probable ef-
feet OF high prices on the campaign of
1900.
1t is tee purpose Of some Of the COM
mitteemen to organize a bureau of in
formation and education, whose duty it
shall be to gather accurate and definite
information relating to trusts, cost of
manufacturing selling prices to jobbers
and middlemen, selling prices to con-
sumers, wages paid and cost OF raw ma
terial. They believe they will be able
to show that the present high prices are
the result of trusts and combinations,
and that workingmen have been given
but small proportion Of the increase
in selling values.
1t was rumored this idea has assumed
such tangible form that it is predicted
w. II. (Coin) Harvey will be placed at
the head of the bureau. None of the
committeeman wovld admit this matter
had been discussed. 1t is proposed to
employ large staff Of men to gather
information which can be used in an |
antitrust campaign. There did not |
seem to be any disposition to shelve |
free silver as. an issue; all the commit |
teemen said free cainage was in the |
platform to stay, but none of them |
said it would be the dominant issue.
Congressman William Sulzer Of New
York appeared before the committee. |
He said trusts would be the issue in the |
east. James +. Mlnturn of New Jersey
told the committee practically the same
thing. Senator Pettigrew of South Da.
kota and Charles A. Towne of Duluth,
both of them Silver Republicans, told
The committee that free silver was still
! live issue in their state. .

Tho DalIlia.

More than hundred years ago Bar
on Humboldt discovered the dahlia, a
small, single flower, in Mexico. Could
some prophetic vision have revealed
to him the dahlia Of to-day in its daz-
cling hues and varied forms, he might
perhaps, have been prouder of that dis
covery than of all his other scientific
achievements. 1t was sent by him to
the Botanical Gardens, Madrid, where
1t received the name of dahlia in hon
or of the botanist. Professor Andrew
Dahl. The same year it was introduced
into England, where 1t was cultivated
under glass. For few years it was
lost to cultivation, then reintroduced
into England. Cultivation soon devel-
oped the double form, and every color
except blue. For many years the ideal

WANT MORE SYSTEM.
Police Officers Say They Are
Not to Blame That Bur-
glars Got Away.

The absence of reports of daring bur-
glaries and hold-ups is said to be occa-
stoned by the departure of the crooks.
Many officers believe that they have not
departed, but are just waiting until the
city resumes its normal condition and
every inhabitant does not grab his gun
eVerytime he hears trifiing noise dur
ing the night, and then they will begin
operations again. The officers declare
they have done the best they could un-
der the circumstances and insist that
1t is not so much the fault of the police
force that no burglars were caught as
with the conduct of the Investigations.
Many of them are inclined to laugh at
the method pursued in hunting for the
crooks. A patrol wagon loaded with
officers went out to hunt for the fellows
and as every one knows they would
have ample warning, and the police, or
some OF them at least, are not surprised
that better results were not obtained
They say the force needs reorganization
and that it is individually strong
enough to cope with the desperadoes IL
1t were properly directed. Police officers
will watch with interest the progress Of
events in the legislature, hoping that
a new system will be adopted for Can
ton. They say that what Canton needs
more than anything elese is head for
its police department They do not
claim that the marshal could not do
the work, nor that the mayor could not
do 1t, but the marshal has not the au-
thority and the mayor has not the time.
Nor is 1t always true that a mayor is
elected to office on account of his fitness
for police duty.

rt is New idea to Most of Us That There

| n ,s a New Idea to- Most of Us That There
ia n Fashion In the Color OF Egg shells.
Occasionally II is well to give the
fowls a meal Of burnt corn, prepared
by burning corn on the cob until the
kernels are black, II the cobs are char
red until like charcoal, then crushed,
they will eat almost all of them.
These things have good effect on
the digestion and also seem to be
help to their laying. Since poultry
raisers buy all the scorched grain they
ran get. after a fire in warehouse or
grain elevator. 1t Is healthy for the
fowls, they like 1t and 1t is always very
cheap. One great cause Of scanty egg
production is want of exercise among
the hens, to be healthy and lay well,
they must keep moving or they Will
become too fat to lay. 1t is their
nature to scratch for their food, so a
scratching place ought to be provided
for them and their feed placed In 1t IN
such a way that they are Obliged to
keep at work In order to get enough
to satisfy their hunger.
Take clover or timothy hay and
spread layer six or eight inches thick
all over the floor, tramp 1t down well
so as to break 1t somewhat and they
will eat considerable Of 1t, working at
1t day after day. When feed is thrown
in, fork over the hay so that the grain
will fall under It when they must
scratch for It or go without.
Some grain mixed with the sand and
o. to oil
keeping them busy for long time.
Most poultry raisers in winter give q
feed of whole corn the last thing be-
fore the fowls go to roost, as corn is
known to be heating and will help to
keep up the bodily heat during the
night. This Is good plan but I
wonder how many think to warm ii
before feeding, instead of giving 1t to
them so cold that it almost freezes
ones fingers to handle 1t. 1t is given
them to produce heat, but before It
can do this 1t must take sufficient heat
from the fowl to heat itself, this is all
wrong and the corn should be placed in
the oven until It Is heated all through,
then by the time the fowls get 1t, 1t is
Just warm enough to be comfortable.
It is new idea to most of us that
there is a fashion in the color of egg
shells. Just now brown ones are call
ed for more than white, which seems
sensible to me as they are stronger
and less liable to break in handling.
Then too, when placed in cold stor-
age, 1t is claimed that they come out
in better condition than white shelled
ones. AS the brown shells are harder
1t is probable that the air cells are
fewer and smaller, thus affording less
chance for a change in flavor by any
outside influence.

Farm Credits.

That new form of farm credit, estab-
lished by the French law of July 18.
1898. authorizes farmers to issue agri-
cultural warrants, or negotiable re-
ceipts on the security of certain pro-
duce specified therein and stored on
the farm. The law provides for the
registry of these warrants by local
justices and protects their security un-
der heavy penalty. Such warrant
costs less than chattel mortgage, is
even safer, and is more des rab.e to
lenders, because 1t is negotiable. Any
state in this country that wishes 10
try this experiment In agricultural
credit may we'll adopt the new French
law. copies of which may be obtained

dahlia Of the cultivators was a perfect

who remember the compact flowers Of
thirty or forty years ago know how
nearly that ideal was realized, and re-

the dahlia of that day. But people
soon tired of the regularity of that
type, and for few years it was ne

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Samuel Com.

ton of Labor, testified before the in
dustrial commission. He was exam.
ined at length regarding union trade
labels.
Mr.. Gombers insisted that the label
had a farreaching effect. 1t increased
activity among union members and
brought the different crafts together
fraternally. The general aim was to
produce union made goods. He exhib.
tied number of the labels to the com.
mission, even taking off some of his
clothes to show that he wore the proper
stamps from a labor standpoint.
He gave much testimony to show
how the organizations had increased
within recent years in membership and
influence.

lists assembled In Union square last night
to celebrate May day. They came there
with flags, banners. transparencies and
bands after a lengthy parade. In the
parade were about 80 women. The
Stars and Stripes were In evidence, but
they were greatly overshadowed by the
banner Of red
At Union square speeches were made
by Lucian Sanial, Daniel De Leon,
Mahlon Barnes OF Philadelphia and
others. The meeting opened with three
cheers for international socialism. Mr..
Sanial. who presided. said that the eyes
OF the world were directed 10 America,
"where capital in its most advanced and
most odious form is threatening the
peace OF the world" He predicted dire
results IL capital should not be checked.
An address was unanimously adopted,
sending greeting TO fellow socialists
throughout the world, calling attention
to the rapid growth OF socialism in this
country and elsewhere. and declaring
that capital is doomed. The address
says:
