A POPULIST ADDRESS.

Leaders Issue an Appeal Advising the In
dorsement of Senator Teller.
ST. LOUIS, June 21.-As the result
of a series of conferences between
committees appointed by the seeding
silver men of the recent epu blican ma
tiona1 convention and a committee
composed of prominent populists, an
address was issued Saturday from the
headquarters of the peoples party ma
tional committee in this city, advisin g
populists throughout the country to
make Henry NJ. Teller, of Colorado,
their national standard-bearer. The
address says in part, after noticing the
''boss in politics."
One man, the perfection of his type, repre-.
senting the millionaires, the banks, the cor
less and plutocrat1c element in our country s
life, has. through the power of money, die
tated the nomination of Mckinley and shaped
the platform of his party
In view of the shameless submission by the
republican convention to the most extreme de-
mands ever made upon Americans by the
money power, every thought and effort OF
American manhood should, from this hour
tend toward creation and cementing union
between those who would resist the cons piracy
of wholesale robbery and grinding oppres-
sion.
The address then goes on to tell OF
Senator Teller's merits and says he is
lone upon whom all populists may con-
sistently unite
The manifesto is signed by III. E.
Taubeneck, of Illinois; R E. Sankey,
of Kansas: f. D. Eager and j. A. Edger.
