A RBALIGNMEN T 0F PARTIES Restoration of Silver as _Basic Money Along With Gold the Work ‘In Hand—Free Coinage at the United States Mint. Chicago, June 9.-—Hon. Charles A. Towne of Minnesota, in calling to order the national provisional committee (sil- ver Republicans), said: “I give you greeting upon the auspi- cious opening of this conference and congratulate you and the great cause wherein we are engaged that so numer- ous and representative a body of men has gathered from a large majority of states and territories to participate in the first general council of the silver Republic- an party of the United States. We are happy also to welcome the inspiring presence of a delegation representing the bimetallic organization of the wom- en of the country, whose sympathies are enlisted as ever in behalf of justice and humanity." Free Coinage at the Mint. After referring briefly to the circum- stances attending and the motives in- stigating the inception of the movement, he spoke of the organization of the pro- visional national committee at the sug- gestion of the Republican senators and Continuing, he said: “Our motives are these: We desire above all things else of immediate polit- ical concern the speedy re—establishment in the United States of true bimetallism, the same privilege of free coinage at the mint for both gold and silver and absolute equality between them in all money power, when coined, with the 0p- tlon to every payer, whether the gov- ernment or an individual, to choose what coin shall be the basis of payment in every instance. We wish to do all in our power to advance this happy con- summation, and we realize that if this great cause is to succeed in the elec- tions of 1898 and 1900 it can do so only through the addition to the allied armies of 6,000,000.that followed the banner of the joint standard in 1896 of at least some hundreds of thousands of Repub— licans of that contest. Restoration of Silver. ‘ “We have other plans, or may have, and we believe in other things also, but the restoration of silver as basic or pri- mary money along with gold is the first and engrossing object of our ac- tivities and shall remain so until the crescent of promise shall have rounded into the full orb of success. The gen- eral method of our procedure will be that demanded by the depths of our convictions and the dominant impor- tance of the issue that has moved us. With us the cause is everything. Men and parties sink into relative inconse— quence. All armies marching to invest the citadel of the gold standard are our allies, all their soldiers o‘ur coin- rades. We will loyally and tireles‘sly co-operate with all other organized forces of bimetallism that honestly profess the faith and resolutely and undeviatingly keep it. Harmony is of vital' concern to the success of the cause, and nothing but consideration of its welfare shall limit the burdens we will gladly bear or the sacrifices we will eagerly make to advance it. But the sincerity we offer we shall also re- quire. Ou'r allegiance is to the cause alone, and we Should as readily abane don an ally who would imperil the cause as we turned from the old Re- publican party when it was false to its duties. Realignment of Parties. “Our allies must recognize that the present critical situation in American politics signalizes the interaction of forces preparing a realignment of par- ties. Old things are being done away, and all things are becoming new. Let the dead past bury its dead. Regret for the necessary sundering of accus— tomed ties must be swallowed up in the satisfaction of forming new ones that shall link us to the duties of the future rather than to the memories of the past. “It would be useless to deny that'so- cial and industrial evolution is shaping for political treatment other questions that will successfully ripen for settle- ment after the monetary reformation shall have been accomplished, and that the underlying principles on which their wise settlement depends are such as naturally to place their achievements in the same hands. Many of these have been long advocated by that great ad- vance guard, the Populist party, and some of the most urgent ones are more and more commending themselves to the reason and sympathies of men. Is it too much to expect, or is it injudi— cious in me to express the hope, that silver Democrats, Populists and silver Republicans may by 1900 be welded into one strong and serviceable instrument in the hands of Providence for the po- litical regeneration of the country and the beginning of reform restoring the spirit of the constitution and contribut- ing to the advancement and happiness of mankind?” In conclusion, he said the immediate business in hand was the determination of the time and place for holding a na- tional convention, the membership of which could make an authoritative dec- laration of principles, and the discussion and adoption of a plan of general or- ganization in the stat es and territories would follow.

And Remarkable Proofs that the National Disease Long Considered lncurable. Can be Cured and Has Been Cured Right Here in Norwalk. Mrs. William W. Bloom, who lives at 7 Water street Norwalk, says: ‘I hav e been troubled with cataarh in my head and throat for some time. My whole head was stuffed up; the passages of my head and throat would at times become so filled with mucous that I could not talk, and altogether it was very annoy- ing. I also suffered a great deal of the time with headaches. 23I got a bottle of California Cataarh Cure at Plaisted 3 drug store in South Norwalk, and I it is Dthe grandest stuff in the world. It has cured me of all the disagreeable suffering I have had for so long; my throat troubles me no more, and I haven’ t had a headache for weeks. I have recommended it to several friends who have used it with satisfactory re- sults, and we all unite in saying it is a wonderful medicine.” California Catarrh Cure is especially prepared for treatment of the mucous membrane. It allays the inflamation, checks the disease and arrests and re- pairs the decay of this delicate lining. It 15 a curative ag cut for colds, coughs hay fever, bronchitis, asthma, and all purely mucous afiections. Use it dur- ing and after a. cold, and you will never have a cold "hang on, ” 01' even 1each the catarrhal stage. When catarrh is once firmly fixed in the nasal passages and throat, it begins to attack the mucous membrane of the passages lead— ing eithert to the lungs or to the stom- ach. The result of the former course is ultimately consumption, of the latter what 18 commonly called some form of indigestion 01' dispepsia. It is cat-arrh of the stomach, intestines, kidneys, and various internal passages. California Catarrh Cure will pre event and cure eall forms of catarrh, whatever the part af- fected, and even will check incipient consumption. It is sold by all dealers: 50cents, three times as much, one dollar. No Delegates to a Gold Convention. Little Rock, June 9.~-C—overnor Dan- iel W. Jones of Arkansas has refused to appoint delegates to represent Arkan- sas at the international gold mining convention in Denver next month.

There is no silver in it, and I am opposed to anything of this kind that seems inimical to the in- terests of bimetallism.” Powers Send Men to Thessaly.
