Counties Asked to Respond.
Jefferson City, Mo., June 17. Mr.
J. W. Zevely, secretary of the Dem
ocratic State central committee,calis
attention to the fact that but four
counties in the State have sent him
the result of convections or meeting
held, asking the committee to call a
State convention. From newspaper
reports it seems that large numbere,
if not a majority, of the counties
have taken some kind of action con
cerning a silver convention, and it is
deemed important that all such ex
preseions should be transmitted to
the State committee so that in tha
event of another meeting.wLich now
6eems quite probable, the proper
; evidence may be at band.
