Watson said he loved Bry to that if he had not a wife and ildren he would sacrifice both ms to secure hia election. Acting on this adyice it was sug- ted to the chairman of the demo ic state central committee to ight that the democrats should ten of the fifteen electors and tein five of the populist electors atly nominated. The democrat chairman had not accepted the oposition at a late hour to-night The several committees will meet pt. 29 and arrange details Mr. Rankin says if this fusion is wranged that Indiana will surely go for Bryan. “Icould stand avy appeal made the advocates of the gold stand. dto almost any class better than appeal made to the preachers and hers of religion. If there is one hing that the church people of country could afford to array meelves against it ise the gold indard as it is being advocated by American people at this time. dyet the republican party is ap- ling to church people to take it place of the gold standard Mow things have changed in the 1,800 years!

Asa result of the war, corporations have been enthron- ed and an‘era of corruption in high places will follow, and money power of the country will endeavor to pre long its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever be fore, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicions my prove groundless.” DeArmond and Overmyer. Blackburn, Mo., Sept. 25 —David A. DeArmond of Butler, Mo, ad dressed an audience of over 3,000 people here today. Overmyer spoke first, entertaing the audience for two hours with one of the strongest speeches ever delivered in this part of the country. Hon. D. A. DeAr- mond, in ove and one-half hours, de- livered a speech of equal excellence. Both speakers took strong grounds in support of the Democratic candi- dates and platform, and by their un- answerable argument did a great deal of good for the cause. The fight being waged on Lon Stephens and Senator Vest is solely on the ground of their advocacy of silver. As the next legislature will elect a U. 9. Senator,every man who has the cause of silver at heart, be he democrat, populist or repub- lican, should vote fer Geo. B. Ellis, the democratic nominee for the leg- lature. Ir elected, he will vote for Vest.—-Rich Hill Review. state excise office in that city is worth about $25,000. It adds that Mr. Filley will get it in case of Re publican success in Missouri.

Mr. Bryan betrays a consciousness of the limited operation of this provision in the expression “federal assistance” in the clause Ihave quoted.

Three people fainted and were earried away from the MeKinley poreli, where they had joined in the crush of thousands to grasp the repub- lican nominee by the hand. After traveling nearly 0 miles, the Ver- mont delevation ched Canton early in the morning and marched to the Me- Kinley homeand paid their respects be- fore nine o'clock. Inthe delegation were Gov. Woodbury and other distin- guished citizens. When the rugged Vermont mountaineers lined up in front of the MeKinley stoop there were cheers and waving of flags and band music and bazoos. The — east- erners had not been expected so early, but soon thousands gathered about the house. After the formal presentations and response. Gov.-elect Grout, Senator Proctor and others made brief addresses of con- gratulations. The Lorain county, O., delegation joined the representatives of the Penn- yivania Republican league and the Erie, Pa, Lincoln club in the public square and marched with them to- gether, nearly 5,000 strong, with a half dozen bands and scores of banners, to the home about which daily are gath- ered thousands THIRD TICKET CERTAIN. Middle-of-the-R oad Populists in Kansas Will Put Up Watson Electors. IoLa, Kan., Sept. 12.—Chairman Brei- denthal yesterday made a suggestion to Thomas E. Watson and his mana- ger, Mr. Reed, which may result in the solution of the problem about the fu- sion arrangement in Kansas. It was that the whole matter be referred to the democratic and populist national executive committees. Both Mr. Wat- son and Mr. Reed promised to think it over. However, Mr. Watson de- clined to change the tone of his speeches in this state, and declared his intention of continuing to plead his cause before the pecple. With a view of forcing a change in the per- sonnel of the fusion electoral ticket the middle-of-the-road men propose to nominate a set of Bryan and Watson electors by petition. This was agreed upon yesterd by Abe Steinberger land J. F. Willits, who have assumed the management of the middle-of-the- jroad movement. Steinberger says that \the proposed electors have not yet | been named, but he hopes to have the | petition ready to be filed by the 25th. | He admits that the action will be taken |for the purpose of forcing a com- | promise. | MANY FRUITLESS BALLOTS.
