and tho Government ownership
of railroads again got tumultuous
greeting in which it was noticeable
that Nebraska, Georgia, Kansas
and Texas led the applause and
cries of "Amen" were heard from
all parts of the house. The para
graph favoring Governmental con-
troll of telephone and telegraph
lines was cheered loudly. A regu-
lar Baptist camp meeting chorus
greeted the land plank.
The completion of the reading OF
the platform was warmly greeted.
Its adoption was instantly moved
and it was put through by unani-
nous consent.
Then the convention broke over
all restraint and went wild. Dele
gates arose in their chairs, cheering
and waving coats, hats and fans
and throwing things in the air.
Several delegates seized Mr..
Branch of Georgia, Chairman of
the Committee on Resolutions, and
trotted him down the middle aisle
on their shoulders. A number of
delegates seized the uprights used
to hold the placards designating
the places of the delegations, and
rushed with them to the platform,
forming a Gordon about the whole
platform. Banners were also borne
there. The frontier county of
Nebraska bore a placard saying
"What is home without mortgage.
Don't all speak at once" A pic
ture of settlers cabin was a part
of it, and on the reverse side was
a big gold piece inscribed Twenty
dollars, 1892" the portrait device
on the coin being a money lender
with long avaricious nose and a
noticeable lack of chin.
The Tennesseeans' banner pledg-
ed $4,000 votes to the new party.
Virginia. had George Washington
for its example. The banners and
placards were rushed down from
the stage and an impromptu pro-
cession, to which new adherents
were constantly received, started
around the body of the hall in
which the delegates sat, drummers
heading the marching. Connecti-
cuts banner said:
Congress, and Not the people,
Be Damned"
"Shylock Twins, Grover and
Ben"
The crowd broke forth time and
time again in applause. The
women joined in the moveme mt,
and getting in line, marched with
their male associates. The men
not in line shouted the encouraging
cries of hight, sister!" After
twenty-five minutes of this sort of
thing the leaders concluded to stem
the tide, but it was hard work.
The remarkable demonstration
continued forming in the center of
the hall. The land played Cyan

Omaha, July 4.-Today the COM
mittee on permanent organization
reported in favor of H. L. Loucks
Of South Dakota for permanent
chairman. It was a picturesque
spectacle when he, standing firmly
on his one leg and

at arms length, waved the great
assemblage to order. His speech
as it progressed was disagreeable
surprise to perhaps the majority Of
the convention, but its impetuosity
and fire, if not its hits for and
against the candidates, elected
cheers at every few words. He
thanked the convention for the
honor ofpresiding over the grand
est, largest convention ever held in
the west, or, he believed, anywhere
in the civilized world. In the past
great revolutions have been brought
about by work and bullet. This

Many thought the Republic was
in danger, but the speaker believed
that the great mass Of wealth pro-
ducers having come to the high
standard of changing the system of
government by ballot had saved
the nation. His hearers could con-
graduate themselves that they
were progressing all along the line.
The speaker had not heard of
single saloon in Omaha having to
double its capacity to accommodate
the vast crowd present.
"We are," he said, "at a critical
period, and cannot afford to take
chances. We want no doubtful
man to lead this movement. We
must know that he has been with
us long enough to have been found
true. or he will find no hope here.

the railroad officials and have the
mistake rectiied. A delegate
moved that the roads Northern
Pacific and Great Northern roads
be included in the resolution. Del.
egate Marion Cannon of California
protested against the resolution as
exhibiting a want of an independ-
ent spirit in the convention. His
vehement denunciation of the roads
led to the liveliest scene of the day.

derstand," he said, sit is not by &C
cident or oversight that the Pacific
coast delegates have been over

tomary courtesy was denied DELHI
erately and with insolence. I do
not want this convention, as far as
California is concerned, to 60 back
to that railroad cap in hand and
ask for any privileges whatever.
[Tumultous cheers.] The demo.
Gratis and republicans secured half
fare, but we, the producers of the
earth, have been refused on equal
terms. We can stand the refusal.
We can tell those railroad compan-
les" continued the speaker, in tones
that rang from end to end of the
hall, "that the people will own and
operate those roads yet"
The platform adopted is as fol-
lows:
We demand national currency,
safe, sound and flexible issued by
the general government only, full
legal tender for all debts, public
and private, and that without the
use of banking corporations; ajust,
equitable and efficient means of
distribution to the people; tax
not to exceed 9 per cent per an
mum, to be. provided as set forth in
the sub-treasury plan of the farm
ers' alliance or a better system,
also by payments in discharge of
the obligations for public improve
ments.
(A.) We demand the free and
unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the present legal ratio of
sixteen to one.
(B.) We demand that the cir
culating medium be speedily in
creased to not less than $50 per
capita.
co. We demand a graduated
income tax.

the country should be kept as
much as possible in the hands of
the people, and hence demand that
all state and national revenues
shall be limited to the necessary
expenses Of government, economic.
ally and honestly administered.
(E.) We demand postal savings
banks to be established by the gov
eminent for the safe deposit of earn
ings by the people and to facilitate
exchange.
Transportation being the means
of exchange and public necessity,
the Government should own the
railroads in the interest of the
people. The telegraph, telephone,
like the postoffice, being necessity
for the transmission of news, should
be owned and operated by, the Gov
eminent in the interest of the
people.
Land including all natural re-
sources of wealth is the heritage of
the people and should not be
monopolized for speculative pur
poses, and alien ownership of land
should be prohibited. All land
now held by RAILROADS and other
corporations in excess of their
actual needs, and all land now
owned by aliens should be reclaim
ed by the Government and held for
actual settlers only.

When You Are Attacked in the
Woods

You may be helpless, but when you
are attacked at home with bilious
ness, catarrh of the stomach, dyspeP-
sia, inactivity of the liver, gout or
rheumatism, you are not helpless.
The remedy is Carlsbad Sprudel Salt.
It is an alternative and eliminative
remedy which dissolves tenacious
bile, allays irritation and removes OBJ
struction by aiding nature, and not
by sudden and excessive irritation,
as most cathartics do. 1t is of great
benefit in temporary and habltual
constipation, liver and kidney dis
eases, chronic catarrh of the stomach
and bowels, rheumatism and gout,
etc., and should be used early in the
morning, before breakfast. Write for

its place, he said: yesterday morning

in his mind and his proof slips in his

Evening journal., 1892-10-27

The essay was written in so admirable
a style, as were his letters and papers
generally, that his friends strongly
urged hl1n to enter literature as offering
more inducements and higher rewards.
Having for some time had a secret bias
in favor of letters, he decided ON fiction,
and wrote "a Laodicean"-he was then
thirty y-hve-which, though clever and
interesting, had but moderate success.
The next year he brought out "Under
the Greenwood Tree" followed by "A
Pair of Blue Eyes" which demonstrated
his fitness for the career he had chosen.
Far From the Madding Crowd" placed
him in the front rank, and in "Tess" he
has clearly surpassed himself, as well as
his contemporaries. It has had an enor-
nous sale at home, and, believe, in
America, and has already been trans
lated into French, German and Swedish,
and continues in great demand. 1t IS
thought that he viii make at least $50,-
600 from the book; not unlikely much
more, as its fame is steadily growing.
Hardy's soul is in his profession. He is
constantly studying and preparing him
self for the work he has in hand. Nearly
every one of his novels describes a par
ticular part Of England, and it is his
custom TO spend some months in that
part, observing nature, human and ex-
ternal, before beginning to write. He
writes, too, with extreme care, and is
very methodical in his labor, giving
usually five or six hours a day to it.
He is reputed to found most of his
characters on actual persons, filling up
the outlines with inferences and imagin-
ings Of his own. He is an ardent lover
of and in earnest sympathy with the
common people, as his stories attest
and he spares no pains in depicting them
faithfully. His opinions, social and
political, as is obvious from "Tess" par
ticulary, are very liberal, if not radical
He is opposed to most of the prejudices
and conventions Of the upper classes
and is not. therefore, in favor with
them-a fact to which he is entirely in
different.
At the same time he is bright con-
versationist, has pleasant manners and
is fond Of congenial society, Of Ameri-
cans especially, who, as a rule. are fond
Of him. He is on intimate terms with
many of Your cultured compatriots Of
both sexes who are frequently in Eng
land, and finds their society delightful.
