John 4. White, Populist nominee
for Congress In the Second District,
appears to have destroyed his chance
of election by talking too much.
The Democrats of the district were
inclined to indorse White, who is q
Jealous tariff rcformer and in most

Democratic leaders say the party
will name Il candidate of Its own.
