The Nehraska Case

Editor Bryan appeared 10 be greatly sur
prised by the action Of the national com
mittee in seating the sound money delega-
tion from Nebraska. According 20 our DIS
patches he said that the committee on Gre
dentials would seat the silver delegation
as soon as it was appointed
No doubt Mr. Bryan IS right IN his view
Of what the committee on credentials viii
do. That committee was appointed 20 do
the viii Of the majority. and the majority
wants every silver contestant seated
But If it were not for the bitter feeling
between the sllveritcs and sound money
men Of the convention the justice Of the
action Of the national committee would
hardly be questioned. The silver delegation
from Nebraska was appointed by an or
ganization composed Of democrats and
populists. while the sound money dele
gates were appointed by an organization
wholly democratic.
II was a couple Of years or more ago that
the split in the democracy Of Ne
braska occurred. A proposition was
made to the state democratic con-
vent!on to fuse with the populists.
A faction Of the democrats. led
by Mr.. Bryan. accepted the proposition
and the other faction-the faction that re-
jected the roposltion-withdrew, and
formed a separate organization. 1t was
this separate organization that the ma
tional committee recognized as the real
democratic party Of Nebraska when It de-
cided to give the Nebraska sound money
delegation a place in the temporary or
ganization Of the convention. In view OF
the fact Of the strong sentiment in the
convention in favor OF silver. and also In
favor Of presidential candidate accept
able to the populists. it IS extremely prob.
able that the committee on credentials will
reverse the action Of the national commit.

Money In the Campaign.

There are indications that justify the
opinion that a great deal of money will
be spent in the presidential campaign this
year. There may be only four presl-
Dental tickets and there may be six, but
whether there are four or six the cam
lavish use of money for what may be
termed legitimate expenses. Neither Of
the prohibition factions expects to elect
its ticket and hence neither of them will
go to unnecessary expense for stump
speakers and campaign literature and
the populist party. if it puts out a candi-
date, will not waste money in a hopeless
campaign. The republican and democratic
parties. however. will use all the money
they can get. and they will not have
much difficulty in getting pretty nearly
all they want.
The statement has been made that Mark
Hanna spent out of his own pocket $780,
goo to secure the nomination of Mai. Nc
Kinley. If 1t cost one man 100000 to
nominate Maj. Mckinley what is it likely
to cost to carry on the Mckinley cam
paign?
Capitalists in one city. Denver, have
announced that if the Chicago conven-
ton dominates Senator Teller they will
give $4,000 to- assist in electing him. If
silverites in other cities of the country
are of the same liberal turn of mind sew
eral millions of dollars could easily be
raised to conduct Mr.. Teller's campaign
If he should be nominated
But if Mr.. Teller should be nominated
the chances are that the eastern demo-
Gratis would put out a presidential ticket.
In that event not nearly so much money
would be available to assist the Chicago
ticket Still. that ticket would not be
wanting in campaign funds. because there
are plenty of rich silverites, and as they
appear to be very much in earnest they
would see to it that means were provided
for carrying on a vigorous campaign. If
the eastern democrats should nominate
ticket they would not expect it to be
elected, and hence they would not waste
much money upon it. The chances are
that the rich men among sound money
democrats. those who have great inter
ests at stake, would be rather inclined TO
help the republican ticket. It looks
therefore as If the republican ticket would
have an abundance Of money for cam
paign purposes whether there is a bolt
at Chicago or not. The fat will be fried
out of the manufacturers, as usual. but in
addition to the contributions of the man.

Mr.. Charles B. Rouss' evident desire
that the southern Battle Abbey should be
built at Washington has much to recon-
mend it. Washington is the center of the
reunited government; the representatives
of foreign governments in this country
reside there; people who study history at
the fountain head look to Washington
to furnish much of the history of this
country; foreign visitors who visit Amer.
lea nearly always take in the seat OF
government and its museums and lib~a-
ries; Washington has greater number
of visitors from the different states than
probably any other city in the country
except New York. There are many things
to recommend Washington. But there is
likely to be strong sentiment against
erecting the Battle Abbey upon any but
southern soil

A Dollar a Day.
From Charleston News and Courier tDem.

The Hartford Courant quotes with en-
thusiasm Maj McKinley's remark the 9th
er day, to some Ohio workingmen: when
you work full day you want a full dollar
in payment" The Courant asks: Does any
workingman dissent from that PROPOSE
tion?''
We do not know what any workingman
will say to this, but, according to our re-
collection. the Courant and Mr.. BENJAMIN
Harrison and all the other organs and
orators howled in Indignant chorus about
four years $50 because some unfeeling cap
italist we believe, II was the late Mr..
Gould, suggested that dollar a day was
good wages for a workingman
Are we TO understand that Mai McKin-
ley and the Courant and all the rest of
the dear workingmans especial guardians
and friends, Qn presidential election
years. have been converted to the opin-
ion thaf fun dollar is fun payment for a
full days work of the average American
workingman? !

The prohibitonist national campaign
was opened at Prohibition park. Staten
Island, by Mr.. Joshua lowering of Bal
timore, the candidate of the party for
President, on Saturday. Mr.. Levering
insists that the silver question is not of
as much Importance as that of prohibition,
from the fact that if free coinage were
instituted it would result in the coming
of only about one silver dollar per capita
a year, while the amount expended for
liquor per year is much more than 81
per capita.

One Point of Difference.
From the Atlanta Journal DemO

The free coinage of silver is the one
point of difference between Teller and Nc
Kinley. Mr.. Walsh and other democrats
now propose to take up this man and make
him the presidential candidate of the dem
ocratic party. Has 1t come to the pass
that the democratic party represents moth
ing but the demand for the free and uniim-
tied coinage of silver at 16 to /? Is advo-
cacy of that proposition this only requisite
to fitness for democratic honors and lead
ership?

is especially true of the game of politics,
and such games as that which is going TO
be played in Chicago this week Until the
last Gard in the game is played there is
ground for hope that the result will be one
upon which every true democrat can con
graduate himself and the party. Until
that result is reached it is unwise to in

THE DOCK LABORERS' STRIKE.
BOTH SIDES EXPRESS CONFI-
DENCE IN THE RESULT.
1t is Causing rluch Delay in Load
ing of VesselS-StrikerS Or.
derly as Yet.

HAMBURG, Nov. 29-The strike OF
the dock laborers and laborers employed
in the shipping trade continues and both
masters and men express themselves as
confident Of success. There is no sign
Of break in the ranks of the strikers,
Notwithstanding the importation of for
eign labor. The leaders of the strike
are working hard to secure the adhesion
Of all the dock, harbor and warehouse
employees, and have succeeded in gain
ing many accessions TO their numbers.
The warehouse men and the men en-
ployed in the granaries decided at
meetings held to-day to join the strike,
in order to procure better wages for
themselves and incidentally to help the
men already out
The strike is causing much delay in
the shipment of water borne freights.
There are many cargoes of goods await
ing shipment, but there is no telling
when the accumulations will be cleared
away. Many of the new men that have
been employed are not at all skilled in
their work, and this adds very mate :
rally to the delay in loading and dis
charging vessels. 1t is believed that the
claim of chartered vessels for demur-
rage will be large. and if these are con-
ceded or enforced a heavy additional
expense will be entailed by the ship
ping men.
The Hamburg "Nachrichten" accuses
English influences with causing the
strike, and asks the members of the va
rious athletic unions to take the places
CT strikers.
dispatch received here from Stock
holm says that the dock laborers' union
there held a meeting to-day and de-
cided that its members should not dis
charge cargoes from Hamburg that are
loaded by non union men.
Emperor William has ordered that a
detailed report be made to him as TO the
causes and extent of the strike.
thus far the men on strike have be-
haved in an orderly manner. but it is
evident that the ship-owners antici-
pate trouble of some kind for they have
requested the naval authorities at Kiel
to send marines here.
