DELEG ATES TO DENVER.


Representative men of the Democratic
party in the various States should be
sent as delegates to Denver, to the end
that tho convention my be constituted as
a great party council where democrats
united in earnestly desiring the return ~
their party to power may frankly, in a
spirit of candor and Of wisdom advise
with one another upon the declaration
of principles and the choice of candi-
date.
These names, among many others
which might be suggested, should appear
upon the rolls of the convention as der
egatcs from their respective States:
Grover Cleveland, New Jersey
Alton Il. Parker. New York.
Richard Olney. Massachusetts.
Franklin MacNeaEh, Illinois.
Judson Harmon. Ohio
James NJ, Guffcy, Pennsylvania
George Gray, Delaware.
David r. Francis, Missouri.
John Sharp williams, Mississippi.
Don NJ. Dickinson, Michigan.
Henry Watterson. Kentucky.
Edward w. Carmack, Tennessee
William ]. Bryan, Nehra ska
Clark Howell Georgia.
The Democratic party Is at present d.
Vded. Would It not be sheer folly and
futility so to order the composition and
proceedings Of the convention that divi-
sion should be made permanent, and
sure defeat invited? The presence in
| the invention hall of democrats of ma
tlonal reputation, whose attendance
t,.cre will recall the days when the par
ty was united and triumphant. will tend
powerfully to preclude unsafe and fac
tional decisions determined upon IN ad-
vance by few interested men, and will
go far toward insuring action that will
give to the platform and to the candi-
date the immense advantage of the full
party sanction.

Rutland, Dec 1o-In view of the in

Of the change in the judicial system of

one of the cases decided, but not yet

wENATCHEE EXHIBIT.
County Commissioners Donate Money
for the Fair.

The county commissioners at the
session held in this city the last of
last week made an appropriation of
$500 for the making of fruit exhibits
at the various fairs to be held this
fall, says the Wenatchee Republic.
The appropriation was made at the
request of the Wenatchee commercial
club This organization has pledged
itself to take general supervision of
the exhibition and see that the ex-
hibit which goes out from here is
worthy of the county. 1t will be re-
membered that many prizes came to
the county last fall from displays
made. 1t was the cause of much
beneficial advertising. Many people
came in here to look the valley over
as a result of seeing the fine display
of fruit made at Spokane, Walla
Walla and Lewiston.
1t is the intention this year to have
an exhibit at Everett, Seattle, North
Yakima and later at Spokane and
Walla Walla. The display will be
made Just as good as possible. The
commercial club considers that this
kind of advertising at the county and
state fairs is as good advertising as
can be made and in addition to what
appropriation has ben made by the
club will, of itself, spend like am
cunt in this work. Donations OF
specially fine fruit is asked by the
club. This will be preserved and kept
for exhibition purposes.

The question of municipal water
