Colorado Does not 8m to CatcU on to

fr Flood SnflTerera.
Wasiungtox, June 10. An interesting
proposition is that made by one Mr.
Carabinetti, who suggests that the cab
inet Iks augmented by the creation of a
department of mines and mining. The
department of agriculture seems to have
justified its existence and the author of
the new suggestion apparently believes
that the sister industry would require
similar recognition from the government.
But Colorado, the one state above all
others to champion any suggestions that
hold out promises of benefit to raining
interests, has not demonstrated even a
mild degree of enthusiasm over the prop
osition. If the proposed department
were practicable and could be put to real
service it is to be imagined that some
thing would have been heard from the
men 'most concerned. New portfolios
are expensive . luxuries. Possibly the
cost of a department of mines would be
greater than its services to the . country
would justify. Nor can every industry
have a department specfically devoted to
itself. Any new addition to the present
organization of the cabinet will be looked
upon with suspicion , by the public at
large as being chiefly useful in the dis
tribution of government jobs for political
ends. A new department would, in the
Addisonian parlance of the lobby,' he
but a puddin' for the politicians.

" Convention Bulletin, j
Mixkkapolis, June 10. Up to the
time Mr. Quay took the floor last night,
for the first speech of the convention on
the Alabama contested case-, it has been
commonly remarked that the gentlemen
who are supporting . Mr. Blaine claim
everything and disclose nothing. In fact
Mr. Quays' silence has seemed to be a
little less soft and thick, less velvety in
character,- than the triple-ply, plush-
lined silence of Mr. Blaine. Experts in
the matter have noted that, while the
Quay article creaks and rustles a little at
times, Mr. Blaine's keeps up one low
monotonous purr of perfect inaudibility, i
As a large part of the nation has been i
intently hearkening to it, the breaking
of it, when it does break, will be some
thing memorable.. The effect of . Mr.
Quays' speech may be noted on the vote.'
Up to this time,- however, the men
who are directing the Blaine -movement
have acted more like individuals who
are committing a trespass . on . another
man's premises than like those who lead
great popular uprisings.-' "They have
moved about with dark .lanterns, hold
ing midnight conferences and conduct
ing business in whispers and cipher. On
the other hand, the Hairison managers
are outspoken, and attract' a great, deal
of attention- Their : clubs all sing, as
well as Bpeak, and one of their songs has
a chorus like this :, '
And grandfather's lial fits Ben"
It may be a; trifle too tight, 4 ? i T
Fop- Benjamin -stands about-seventeen
hands "
The loftiest statesman in sight; , -.,
Yes, rand lather's bat tits -Ben-
He wears it with dignified grace,
So rally again and put Uncle Ben ? 4
Bight back in his grandfather's place'..
With this fiery outburst, combining as
it does a ' brief genealogical 'history,' a
striking picture of the -chief executive)
and a 'stirring appeal ; to the country at
large, the verses soon increase in fervor.
and have an effect' for convincing the
doubtful, rjarticalarly, the office-seekers,
the man on the fence, the fellow who
says: ' - ' .

But it must 'not ; be misunderstood,
notwithstanding Mr. ; Depew and others
tell us that "there i s nothing in the
Blaine movement," it is much too eer-
ious to be meant . for a practical joke.
Evidence of this may be observed in the
fact that after Mr. Quays' speech the
convention last- night adopted . the
minority report of the committee in the
Alabama contest, which was favorable
to Blaine.
t'ouHtlan Bnlletin. .'
Mikxkapolis, June 10. The conven
tion was called to order 'at II :36 a. m.
After prayer David Martin was- an
nounced as the national committeeman
from Pennsylvania, vice Quay. . ''
The question then came up as to the
remainder of the majority report "of the
committee on credentials, left over last
night. , - "
Quay, in order to get to balloting at
once, announced that ' they would not
oppose its adoption. 'The Blaine men
have decided not - to delay the matter,
but push for a vote', and it is expected a
ballot will be reached. this Bession. The
result, it is said, lies between Harrison
and Mckinley; Ohio favors the latter.
It is reliably stated that- Idaho and
some other far western, states will turn
to Harrison, if they should drop Blaine.
It is reliably stated that Blaine's
name will not be formally presented.
His supporters, however, will vote for
him, in order to hold their forces to
gether in case it becomes necessary to
turn to some compromise candidate. '
Alger's name will not, be presented.
McKinley will get twenty or twentytwo
from Michigan. , Ohio will also go for
McKinleyv
It is fairly certain that Harrison and
McKinley will be nominated today. In
dications in favor of Harrison.
; Mrs. Helen Foeter of the National W.
C. T. U. is now addressing the conven
tion which is paying great attention to
her, and is applauding her liberally.
Wolcott, speaker for Colorado, was fre
quently interrupted by prolonged cheer
ing at the mention of Blaine's name.
He predicts a great victory in November
for the great uncrowned leader of the
republican . party, - James G- . Blaine.
Renewed cheering, said Blaine has
never been president" of our country bnt,
"will be," which caused renewal of en
thusiastic applause; ' Wolcott' said he
was proud to cast his vote for a man who
always sought everything for . his 'coun
try and nothing for himself." He fin
ished when renewed cheering broke out,
the galleries shouting "Blaine!" .
., When Indiana was called and Col.
Dick Thompson took the platform to
present the name of Harrison, great
cheering followed. Thompson said he
proposed to present the name of a man
who does not seek success by detraction
of any other great republican. I nomi
nate for President, ' General Benjamin
Harrison. Great - cheering. ; The
cheering for Harrison is more general
and prolonged than that for Blaine.
Most of the Massachusetts, Connecti
cut, and Michigan delegates remained
seated. When Michigan was ' called :
"No candidate presented," was - the
answer. ' ' ' 1 -
.Eustie, of Minnesota, took the plat
form to second Blaine, during which, he
mentioned .McKinley,. , as "the 'great
leader and disciple of protection," which
caused great cheering.
Aa soon as Eustis could be heard,- he
changed the programme, by mentioning
Blaines' name which aronsed a perfect
storm of applause, and for a long: time,
the only words fit - for . bulletins were :
"Cheering , and ; . demonstration . for
Blaine,'-' "ladies swinging their parasols
and handkerchiefs, "cheering for Blaine,
increasing all over the hall," etc. 1 Dur
ing which, Reed of Maine, was on his
feet waiving the flag of enthusiasm as an
increasing crowd gathered behi nd him,
cheering at the top of ' their voices, for a
full hour. . .. . i .
' '- East ' Oregoiiia a: Election day ' was
calm and peaceful in Pendleton, barring
the natural stir on the streets. The
Australian ballot system was very satis
factory,, though a ; trifle low. . The
booths were kept constantly filled, and
voters were compelled to await . their
turn as in a crowded barber shop. -Yet
the power - of ' the -"strikers" and
"heelers" was in a' great measure pre
vented, and the. voter could go to the
polls alid deposit, his ballot without

TO TALK WITH MARS.
InterestiBz Recent Inyestigations &y

IS THE PLANET MARS INHABITED?
If so, a Plan Seriously Suggested t
Open op Communication.
MAD DOG LOOSE IN CHICAGO.
Ifine Person Bitten, one or Whom 3Iay
Die Chasing; the Animal in the
City Other Mote. '
Cincinnati, June 10. Probably none'
of the many fasinating theories that have
been advanced by astronomers during
the last decade is more interesting than -the
recent investigations as to the planet
Mars. Seemingly, the idea that that -celestial
neighbor is inhabited has taken
renewed hold on the savants, aud, if it
is not yet accepted by them aa fact, they
nevertheless distinctly countenance it.
One of them now suggests that by level
ing off a plane five miles in diameter,
covering it with a coating of black and
constructing thereon a frame carrying
6,000,000 intensely brilliant arc lamps,
it would be possible to establish com
munication with the Marsians. . It is
even intimated that as they may be a '
more advanced state of civilization than
ourselves they could easily respond.
After seeing the earth flashing its signals
at regular intervals they would construct
a similar semaphore and commence inter-planetary
conversation. The enor
mous expense of such an experiment,
coupled with the uncertainty as to its
result, makes it improbable that it will
be-tried -during the present campaign. -
' Rabies In Chicago.
Chicago June 10. Nine persons, one
of whom may die, were' fearfully bitten
and lacerated by a mad Newfoundland '
dog which ran amuck in the northwest
division of the city yesterday. The
dog was first noticed about 2 p. m..
Shortly .after pursued by 200 men and.
boys armed 'with clubs and stones the
dog ran ontto Augusta street , biti ng PauS.
LaFevre and Frank Siska as . he ran.
Then. running through - Joseph Stemer's
grocery store at;C03 Milwaukee avenue,
he buried his fangs in the hand of
Joseph Haefner. - John Bey ska was the -next
victim. Both of his -hands were
bitten. A portion of the calf of Chris
tian Ivereon's left leg was torn out as he
was walking up the avenue. A horse- ;
owned by James DuPIain of 29 and 31
Cornell street had its nostrils torn away.
Victor LaFevre had the skin on his fore
head torn and may lose the sight of hie
left eye. His chest wsuj also lacerated,
after a chase- that lasted an hour the -police
drove the animal into a barn i li
the rear of 021 Milwankce avenue. The -officers
ascended to' the hay loft on a -ladder
and Sergt. Gainor then dropped
down to the barn floor. Securing a four
pronged pitch-tork he pionioned the dog:
to- the floor,' while Officers Green anct
Joerndt above poured a volley into bt
body. All the injured were cared for o
speedily as possible.- Their wounds
were cauterized and they were sent to
their homes. Riston anil the little Kir
choff boy are the most seriously injured. :
How It Worked.
Baker City Democrat: The Australian
ppstem worked to perfection and strikers
were entirely at sea' in' their efforts to
beat it in any particular. 'Less boodle
! was used than at any previous election
held in Baker county, but not, a small
number of V's were distributed with the .
view of bribing voters. - Whether the
goods were delivered accordingly to con
tract will never be known to other than
the eTector. ' 1 - -
