The revolution on the isthmus of
Panama and the independence of the
nex republic ruined a sure fortune for
William J. Cook, of this city, who is
Just back from Central America. Mr.
cook is a warm personal friend of
President .2aJaya and wa appointed
by the president to represent the Klc
araguan government In its riegotla
tlone with the Washington government
for the canal concessions. Nicaragua
demanded a cash payment of f 6,000,000
and $250,000(' yearly thereafter. Mr.
Cook waa to receive a commission of
$300,OOJ on the first payment and $25,
000 vearly thereafter so long as the
United States made Its annual pay
ments. Cut the Panama revolution
spoiled it all. Mr. Cook has very large
interests in Nicaragua and expects to
leave shortly for the east,' where bis
Interests are being handled at Chicago
and New York. He is at the head of
a, company which controls 800,000
acres of fine cattle land and negotla
tions are now under way to stock this
vast tract Some of the leading men of
the United States' are Interested in the
deal. Mr. Cook's blgg-st scheme is to
r-etabl!sh the currency system of
the Nicaragnan government The
country at reient loes business with
a flat currency, and, while President
Z-iiay is anxious to introduce and
maintain a stable monetary system, he
.1ncls it lmpos-ilble, for the reason that
me present monetary eyrtem lias ruin
ed the republic's credit Mr. Cook has
threshed. out the currency matter with
the president and has agreed with him
upon a new scheme, which involves
the formation of a national bank. In
alt thore is about 814,000,000 to be re
placed with sound money, and Mr.
Cook and his associates have been as
sured by the president they will re
ceive all the assistance possible In their
plan. Un4r the contemplated scheme,
the bank will enjoy concessions which
insure fortunes to the men interested.
Because of the long period during
which the republic has labored under
a flat currency the stable monetary
system promoters will have to make
the change a gradual one. Mr. Cook
says '.he republic is wonderfully pro
ductive and that it offers great In
ducements to investors.

Another meeting of the ciUxen

Sunday afternoon, at which time offi
cers ;iU. be elected and the sub-corn
mittee appointed to confer with the
republican committee relative to the
legislative ticket There is a very pro
nounced sentiment In the city for the
nomination of a straight ticket this
year; indeed, leading democrats realize
that tbla Is essential, as adoption by
the people of the direct primary law
would leave the democrats without a
party if they clung to the name "cltl
sen." Section 14 of the law provides
that the vote for representative In con
gress shall be the basis on which the
percentage for petitions shall be count
ed, and a party must cast 25 per cent
of the votes for representative In or
der to gain recognition according to
this new method of. making nomina
tions. The law further specifies that
in nominating for city or county of
fices, candidates may get places on the
tickets by' petition, but such petitions
must be signed by electors residing in
at least one-fifth of the number of
precincts In such city or county. This
feature of the law is construed to be
a' thrust at "citizen" movements by
some of the' committeemen who. have

The whole proposition 4s up to the
democratic , convention, which meets
at 1 o'clock on the afternoon of April
9. The convention must elect dele
gates to the state and congressional
conventions, and then may wrestle to
Its heart's content with the straight-
out question. If the delegates decide
to nominate a straight ticket the oltl-
sens' convention will never material
ize; If, on the other hand, it is de
cided to continue to Use the name so
long employed, the democrats will ad
journ after the election of state and
congressional delegates and meet again
as cltisens. Members of the commit
tee say they do not desire to make any
recommendations to the convention,
but prefer to let the delegates arrive
at their own conclusion. However, it
is not to be denied that the sentiment
for a straight ticket is pronounced,
and that another effort in this direc
tion will be made again this year is
certain.
