The democratic party will nomi nate the next president of the Unit- ed States at Chicago next week. Senator Peffer's wife and daughter are spending the summer at Wild- wood-by-the sea, a pleasure resort. The first men to fly to Canton in palace cars to extend congratulations so McKinley was the tin plate man- ufacturers. The democratic state convention in Indiane was the largest ever held in the state. This shows that the people there are aroused. The vote in North Carolina dem- ocratic convention, held Friday, on the money plank stood 875 for free silver to 31 for the gold standard. The republican platform tells us so wait for Europe, andin the sweet by and by she will settle our finan- cial troubles by international agrees ment. Before November the democrats will have McKinley riding over the eountry making speeches from the rear platform of a palace car. It will be the signal that Hanna is scared. McKinley's running mate, Hobart. is officer or director in the twenty- aix different corporations and trusts. | He ought to have good standing in| she republican party. | ee McKinley has been stall fed on office a long time, and it is remark- ably strange the country has to wait until he gets to be president before the land will flow with milk and honey. Maj. Thos. O. Towles, of Jeffer- son City, has been chosen one of the secretaries for the Chicago conven- tion. He isa brother-in-law of Sen- ator Cockrell, and for several years was chief clerk of the house of rep-| resentatives. | The dispatches say the republi- | cans will put up a lively fight in Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri.

The Globe Democrat democratic presidential nomination will not go begging. Two weeks ago the avowed candidates could be counted on five fingers; to-day twenty-one more or less distinguish- ed members of the party are men- tioned as possibilities, and that presidential booms are swelling | with amazing rapidity. says the H. H. Smith, ex-journa!l clerk of the house of representatives, in an interview the other day stated Sec. retary Carlisle told him last winter that if the Chicago convention de clared for free silver he would sup- port McKinley. Mr. Carlisle said he had not talked with Smith for two years and added that the latter's statement was a gratuitous and ma- licieus falsehood. Yes, it is true, Governor Altgeld released from the Illinois penitenti ary a couple of criminals called anar- chists, and in this instance he may have done wrong, but there is one thing he has not been accused and indicted for, he never murdered his brother in-law and then run away from his state as did the republican nominee for governor of Illinois, John R. Tanner The silver leaders are gathering ia Chicago in great force from the several states. A conference was held at Sherman House, Tuesday, under the auspices of the bimetallic democratic national committee. Some big men are on guard and the cause of silver will be carefully guarded and all arrangements made} for the convention which ‘will con- vene next Tuesday. { In order to influence the Chicago convention against the adoption of a/| free silver plank in the platform, the cotton mills in New England are talking of a shut down for three or four months. This kind of bull dozing tactics will only tend to strengthen the cause of silver, and the harder the manufacturers andj} money loaners make times, the great- er will be the silver vote. Sail in, | gentlemen, if you imagine you can! control the country by starvation methods. The Democratic National conven.) tion will be composed of 930 del-| egates. Unless the two-thirds rule! is abrogated the silver men will re- quire 620 delegates to nominate a candidate for president. They have lit is not yet completed. It is announced that John R.

It cost Hanna four million dollars to nominate his man and he now proposes to spend ten millions to elect him. Who do you imagine will have to pay this prodigious amount of money in the event of McKinley's election? Do you imagine eastern manufacturers would put up this money if they did not expect to get it all back with usury.

Challenge tells make a “‘ainnie” him to editorial debates on that im-/| portant questiou, and we are sure your readers will be treated to e feast of reason, if he accepts. It is said that McKinley believes in Fridayas an unlucky day and that he objected to being nominated on that day. He also entertains the following similarly well grounded superstitions: A cheap coat makes acheap man; the foreign manufac- turer pays the tariff tax; a high tar iff will keep out foreign goods; a| high tariff will fill the treasury by taxing the importations of foregn | goods; the way to benefit the labor ing man is to raise the price of his clothing, ete, and import foreign paupers to compete with hi way to filla barrel is to pour in at the spigot and let it run out at the bung hole —Pleasant Hill Local. ; the In the course of a speech made not long ago Senator Hoar of Mas sachusetts said: “There is not. as | far as I know, in the state of Massa- chueetts, or in the six New England | states, 2 per cent of the entire re- publican party who hold the theories of Grover Cleveland (on the curren- ey) asI understand them. There are no gold monometallists there.” 584, or 35 short of two thirds. The Michigan delegates stand 13 for} silver to 15 for gold.

Indiaca Republicans Can‘t Stop the Silver Wave. Meeting otf the Varisus Committees Rastily Cailed, Indianapolis, Iud., June 29 —The Republicans are growing alarmed. The silver sentiment in the State is increasing at arate that bids fair to sweep everything before it. Chair. man Gowdy of the Republican State Committee has for a meeting of the State, Advisory and Executive committees for next Wednesday. The ostensible pur- pose of the meeting is to diseuss in a formal way the plans for the eam- paign, but in reglity the call was burried, aud the main tapie of di cussion will be the silver question | and what to do with it. An effort | will doubtless be made by Gowdy, | under orders from Hanna, to side- track the money question and shove the tariff question to the front.
