Now brother Hart, in. Justice to MI.

It is strange how utterly astounded
some of the most sagaclous menuUers uf
the convention were at the result of the
quadrennial movement. AT the time Of
the adoption of the two years Senate
term yesterday. there was apparently no
heat, no excitement, no surprise. Mat
tiers went on orderly and the regular pro-
ceedings were not interrupted at all.
Last night the seeming inuluerence was
explained. Members We're paralyzsd by
tho auddenness and the force of tho
shock
evidently something like this possessed
some OF them. for the ''clincher" was
alowed to be put upon the sections
without a struggle; for two hours other
business was dispatched, and finally the
whole report was adopted, as amended,
section by section, and the "clincher"
again applied to each; then the whole
report was formally and irrevocabiy
adopted and sent 10 the Committee on
Final Revision. Everybody had his day
in court and there was no suspicion
OF undue haste. In fact. Mr.. Thorn. who
presided most Of the time, kept q steady
hand or the lever and guided the con-
vention through the mazes OF the dance
with wonderful! skill and CELEBRITY.
But all last night there were fnutteT-
inGs of q storm among the advocates OF
the ilod-oyer four-year-term Senators.
Mr. Fill Carter. who had stood out
manfu!ly for quadrennial sessions and
elections of the Legislature. did not hest
tate 10 say that the final action upon
the proposition was actually revolution
airy, and he was afraid would induce 2
paEic among the business interests OF the
State Mr. Flood who led the anti
uuadrenniaI forces. was equally emphatic.
while athers who went down nj that fight
declared that the thing was too mon
strous to stand. Mr.. Flood will to-day
introduce a motion to rescind the acton
and will have strong support.
On the other side are members eqttalis
emphatic in their expression of approval
If the action, and predict that 1t IS the
| most popular and the best action that
the convention has taken il the whole
course of its existence.

In discussing the nations prosperity
and the proiongation OF our prosperity,
the question OF our gold supply is to
be taken into account Gold is thc recog-
nized money metal of the world. and lies
at the basis of credit. The more gold We
have the more credit we have, and credit
means wealth. The prosperity which
this country is now enjoying is largely
due TO the increased supply of gold, and
our free silver friends are welcome to
all the comfort they can get out of that
statement from a gold standard Demo
cratic newspaper
A report was submitted in Congress
the other day showing that our stock Of
gold has increased $40, 9O1,6l1 in the last
five years, and owing to the increased
gold production of the United States and
the reopcntng of the South African mines,
it is believed that the increase will be
still moro in the next five years. WITH
our immense supply of gold as the basis
of credit and our large and Increasing
export trade, The season of our prosper
ity should be prolonged Indefinitely, and
We believe viii be- unless the country
should be thrown into panic by wild
speculation. or inflated capitalization Of
corporations.

The Constitutional Convention has de-
cided not only to have biennial sessions
of the General Assembly, but to nave
all Senators, as well as all members OF
the House, elected at the same time Tor

with hold-over Senators. And so every
two years there will be a session of the
General Assembly, with al members

Walker, once a wealthy physician Of
Canton, and Elizabeth Fraser, her sis
ter, were taken to the Jail hospital last
night on warrants charging lunacy.
For three weeks these women have
been barricaded in their home, refusing
to accept food or help. When the house
was broken into last night the women
were found to be raving maniacs.
There was not crust of bread in the
house and the women had subsisted by
eating soft soap, Of which there was a
barrel in the house. Both had been
sleeping on an improvised bed made of
six chairs drawn together.
Thousands of dollars worth of valu-
able laces, tapestries, linens and silks
were found II eight large trunks. The
women had sawed a hole through the
kitchen floor, into which they threw
rich carpets, silverware and other
goods worta more than $1,000. They told
the sheriff they had intended to hide
there.
When tie officers went to the house
they found the door barricaded and the
organ was piled against it. When the
men demanded admittance one of the
women fegan to play an air on the Or
gan. They shouted that they would
not be captured.
Mrs, Walker owns real estate in this
city wotth more than 100000.
