POLITICS a1d
POLITICIANS.
News and Gossip of the Campaign,
Gathered at the Hotels and
Public Buildings OF the
Citv and Elsewhere.

On a crowded Eighteenth street car,
bound downtown last night, a silver beard
ed free silverite began a political discus
sion. He prophesied the election of Bryan
by all sorts of fabulous majorties, even
going so far as TO claim that the apostle
of reputation would carry New York. A
Mckinley man took issue with him on this
point and declared that Bryan would have
q hard time TO carry Missouri and Kan
sas The statement that Mckinley might
carry Kansas made the old fellow wrathy.
"Bryan will carry Kansas by a hundred
thousand majority" he declared. Il live
in Kansas myself, and 1 know what 1
am talking about. If you fellows would go
over into Kansas, ] bet you couldn't ma
a Mckinley man hardly in days journey.
Why, everybody over there is for Bryan,
and we are going TO make it unanimous.
At this point in the old mans speech six
big, broad shouldered fellows, who had
been standing in line with their backs to
him, turned, and one of them said: Look
here. pardner. Reckon you'll have to take
some of that back. Here's six of us for
Mckinley, all from Kansas, and you can
bet there's plenty more of them where We
came from A glance at the row of Kan
sans showed that the coat of each was dec
GRATED with Mckinley button, and the
free silverite subsided.
Free silver shouters who are afraid of
free silver in business matters are very
numerous. They profess to support Mr..
Bryan, who says gold has caused more mis-
cry than famine, war and pestilence, but
they are careful to make their contracts
payable in gold. Altgeld does SO and so
does Candidate Arthur Sewall, of Maine,
and II is no wonder that the smaller men
do the same thing. W. A. CAM. of Mena,
Ark, sold some land to the Pittsburg &
Gulf Railroad Company at Mena, and when
the sale was completed was paid in draft
on the Missouri Kansas and Texas Trust
Company, of Kansas City. He deposited
the draft there for collection and had it
sent to this city, with instructions that 1t
must be paid in gold coin. Mr.. CAM is
said to be an ardent free silverite in the
oretical politics, but he prefers to cling
close TO the best money when business is
being done.
: Mr. ]. VI. Pleasant, of Lyndon, Kas., who
was a passenger on the Santa Fe train
from Emporia to this city yesterday, with
some free silverites, polled the voters OF
the train to see what was the feeling. and
they found that Mckinley was much the
favorite, as he received 179 votes to lis for
Bryan. As this train was made up of
crowd selected from the part of the state
where there are many Populists, it was
sore surprise to the free silverites, and
they were much depressed over the result.
'T am from the short grass region said
Frank Marsh, of Kinsley, Kas., as he took
in the parade from the Wisconsin last
night. Don't know how it is coming out
between Simpson and Long. but the Re
