Pennsylvania democrats have fall- en into line and endorsed Bryan and Sewall and combined with the populists. ——_____. Only about six weeks more of campaign work, and then the elec- tion of Bryan and the free coinage of silver and prosperity to farmers. The republican state convention for Nevada met at Carson Thursday, the 10th, nominated a state ticket and adopted a free silver platform. The democrats, populists and free silver republicans of Colorado have combined and Bryan and Sewall is given the electoral vote of the state. sy The exportation of gold from England to this country has caused the Bank of England to raise the interest rate from 2 to 24 per cent. _—__ The same old story, Maine has gone republican. The election was held Monday and the republican ticket won by 40,000, so it is esti mated. eiieeeetteeieeacs Charles R. Palmer, secretary of the populist party state central com- mitiee for Illinois, gives out a state- ment backed by figures to show. that Bryan will carry Illinois in Novem- ber. | eeeeeeeeiimmneres Gen. Black has declined the nomi- nation of the gold democrats for} governor of Illinois. The General did not appreciate the idea of being made a tool either in the interest of Altgeld or Tanner. The populists of Pennsylvania have endorsed the Bryan and Sewall electors named by the democratic convention. This combination will give the republicans a close rub to carry the state, if they are not beat- en, in November. The populists in the western and eastern states are ignoring Watson, and joming with the democrats in putting up an electoral ticket for| Bryan and Sewall. The populists do not want to impair the chances of Bryan by throwing their votes away on Watson. —_____.. The democratic state conveution of New Jersey, held at Trenton last week, was one of the most enthusi- astic ever held in the state. The Chicago platform was adopted, elec. tors placed in the field, and at the) - os wayamyt yrorarie |WILL HAVE TO BE DISCIPLINED. | BUYLER WEEKLY PIMs | jand yetevery public utterance of his, | | and every editorial line he writes | and gentlemen,who gave the speaker ‘compose a sting. He urges his fol lowers and readers to repud Sewali and yet he knowe that the lonly way tbe electoral vote of this | Bryan is by voting for the ticket, the| |greater part of whose electors are for Sewall. The democrats in this state are in the majority and could unaided ticket, and yet in fairness and exhibiting a magnani- | mous spirit they gave to the popu lists four of the 2 larger proportion than their vote entitled them to, and still Atkeson is fighting la combination of that kind. The | facts are that he would rather see |the great cause of bimetalism de 'feated together with the populist | party than that \it should succeed | through the democratic party. Af | ter the resolution, unanimously | adopted by the state committee of | the populist party, he will have to | change his policy or be declared by | the constituted autkority of his par- |ty a traitor anda renegade and the populists warned against him. What a pitiable spectacle, Atkeson being discinlined by his superiors, Carroll, Rozelle and others. elect its electors, Atkeson and the other “middle of dé road” populists, when they threat- en to defeat Bryan unless the demo- cratic party takes down the name of Sewall and substitutes therefor the name of Watsor, do not stop to con sider that Mr. Bryan is the regular and legal nominee of the populist party, as he is of the democratic party. Their party did not indorse him as a democrat, but nominated him as their standard bearer, as the one most likely to be elected who stood for the great principle of bi metallism which they claim as their fundamental principle. Now honors are even on that score. He is as much the nominee of one party as he is the other. Why should the democratic party with its 5,554,563 votes in 1892 take down its nominee for Vice President in favor of the nominee of a party with only 1,054,- 096 at the same election. If the populists are in earnest in their de- mand for reform in the monetary system, and we believe the great majority of them are, they will not sacrifice their prospect for the head of their ticket, and through him the consummation of tha great principle, of bimetallism for a vice presidency, asinecure for one man. They will vote for Bryan where their votes wil] be effective. The following paragraphs are taken from the Tennessee Methodist: Hon. L. V. Stephens, democratic nominee for governor of Missouri, is a leading methodist in his state. The annual report of the Maine Bible Society shows that 95 towns in that state have no place of wor- ship, that of 20,000 families visited last year, 10,000 are outside of Christian influences. No wonder Maine goes republican. ee The republican national commit. tee sent Webster Davis to Arkansas to make speeches and probably that accounts for that 80,000 majority. Now they have sent him to Illinois to assassinate the party there. Web ter has proven that his best hold is where else ho is out of his element.

Populixts Accept the Offer of Missouri Democrats. St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 13.—After a sessivu of several hours the populist state couuittee, late yesterday, adopted a resolution to accept the fusion plan for electors proposed by the democratic state central commit tee. A subcommittee of three, of which Chairman Roselle will bea member, will be appointsd to confer with a like committee of democrats as to the districts which shall be in- eluded in the fusion. The number of elvctora the populists will get is four——three district electors and one elector-at large. The committee was in session all day. There were five members of the committee opposed to fusion under any circumstances, and they made a hard fight. The vote on the adoption of the fusion resolution preseuted by Secretary Carroll was eleven for and five against. The democrats are trying to se- cure the consent of the populists to fuse on state ticket and congress- man The populists may agree to this if they willbs giyen the lieuten ant governor and railway commis- sioner and four congressmen. DeArmond Not to Meet Buckner. Clinton, Mo., Sept. 10.—Chairman P. A. Parks of the Democratic Con- gressional committee for Sixth dis- trict yesterday made public a letter | declining the challenge of the gold {bolters, who sought fora joint de- bate between T. B. Buckner of Kan- sas City, and Congressman Dear-| mond, the challenge adoritly includ. ‘ing the discussion of both the dem ocratic and populists platforms. Mr. | Parks emphatically refuses to recog- | |nize renegade democrats; charges that the bolters are accorded free access to the Republican poll books for addresses; that they affiliate and consort only with republicans, | and have no standing as dem- | ocrats. “History,” he concludes, “does not record that Washing-| ton ever held a conference with Benedict Arnold.

Madison, Neb., Sept. 14.—Senator Allev, chairman of the Populist Na- tional convention, mailed to William Jennings Bryaa to day the following letter officially notifying him of his nomination by that body: “To the Hon. William J. Bryan, Lincoln, Neb. Dear Sir—Ata convenfton of the Peoples’ party held at St. Louis from July 22 to 25 of the current year, you were unanimously nomiaated for | President of the United States to be voted for at the approaching general election. “It was known at that time that | you had been nominated by the Democratic party at ita convention held at Chicago a few days before that time, and that you would in all probability accept the same in a for- mal manner. Your nomination by the peoples’ party was not,therefore, made with any thought that you were a Populist or that you accepted all the doctrines declared by the St. Louis platform. “It was due largely to the fact that the money question is the over- shadowing political issue of the age, and because you have at all times been an unswerving, able and fear less advocate of the free and unlim | ited coinage of silver and gold on terms of equality at the mints of the United States at the ratio of 16 tol.

It was thought also that the observ. ance of a patriotic duty required a union of all reform forces and the convention took the liberty, without soliciting or consulting you, of plac- ing your name before the people as its standard bearer. “The convention was, ip doing so, guided by deep solicitude for the common welfare, and acting on its own motion, prompted alone by a desire to bring abeut the best attain- able results. So much has been said respecting the rehabilitation of silver by again placing it in our coinage acts in the position it occupied when stealthily demonetized by the act of 1873, that it would be idle for us to discuss the question “You will observe by the closing language of the St. Louis platform that the convention recognized the money question as the great issue of the day, and because Populists be- lieved that yeu are in accord with} them on this question you will re- ceive their ballots in November. “It has at no time been expected | or is it now, that you will abandon | form, nor that you will accept all platform, however gratifying the lat- ter would be toall populists.

St. Louie, Mo, Sept. 14.—When Mr. Bryan went to the Grand Ave nue Presbyterian church, of which the Rev. G. F. Cannon is pastor, yesterday. fully 1,000 people were vainly seeking admission, the edifice being packed to its fullest capacity and hundreds turned away. As acon as the benediction was pronounced there was a crush uround the pew occupied by Mr. Bryan, all seeming jdetermined to grasp him by the | hand. The jam became so violent that a sergeant of police was called { and, aided by Colonel J. I. Martin, | the officer succeeded in conducting | Mr. Bryan out of the church.
