NOTIFICATION no. 8.

Senator Allen Tells Bryan Of His NOmina-
tiOn by the POpulists-Watson Is Also
Notified.
MADISON, Neb., Sept Ex-senator
Allen, chairman of the populist ma
tionaI convention, mailed to William
Jennings Bryan yesterday letter of-
fcially notifying him of his nomination
by that body. Among other things
Mr., Allen says;
1t was due largely to the fact that the money
question is the oveTshadoWiHg political issue
Of the age, and because you have at all times
been an answering, able and fearless adyo-
cate Of the free and unlimited coinage Of silver
and gold on terms OF equality at the minis Of
the United States at the ratio OF sixteen to
one, Il was thought also that the observance
Of patriotic duty required union OF all re-
form forces AMI the convention took the lib
erty, without soliciting or consulting you, Of
placing your name before the people as its
standard bearer.
It has at no time been expected or is it now,
that you will abandon your adhesion to the
Chicago platform, nor that you will accept all
that is declared in the peoples party platform,
however gratifying the latter would be to all
popuiists. II must be understood that the
party does not abate one jot or 1.-THE of loyalty
to its principles, We have declared ourselves
in favor Of many important reforms, in our
judgment essential to the liberation Of the
people from the present unjust and iniquitOus
industrial bondage,
The peoples party will exact Of you no
promises further than those made in your pub
lie utterances and exempli1ed in q life devoted
to the welfare Of the race, nor will 1t ask you
to abandon the party Of which you are an hon
ored member.
Mr.. WATSON ALSO NOTIFIED.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15-SenatOr But
ler of North Carolina, the chairman of
the pOpulist executive committee, sent
letter to Thomas z. Watson, of
Georgia, notifying him of his nomina-
tIoE as a candidate for vice president
by the populist national convention.
He says in part:
The democratic and republican parties no
longer represent the principles upon which
they were founded. Both have betrayed the
people and have legsiated in the interest of
bankers, spectators. bOndhOldeTs and monOp-
olists, thus enabling the favored few to absorb
the millions Of property earned and created by
the toiling masses
If the democratic party had been true to the
people and to its own platform in its selection
Of q candidate for vice president, we would not
now have the honor Of addressing you, one Of
the worthiest and most beloved sons Of the
peoples party, in this official capacity, for in
that event, the peoples party would have
nominated the whole democratic ticket by even
larger majority than it nominated Mr.. Bryan.

Senator Butler Denies a Report

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16. When the at
tention Of Senator Butler was called to
the report that he had written Con-
gresham Howard, of Alabama, that
Sewall would withdraw, he replied:
Mr.. Howard is mistaken if ne is correctly
represented in the dispatch If any such
statement was sent out from here it was sent
without my authority. Nothing would give
me more pleasure than TO have Mr. SeWalI

an element Of friction from the campaign and

A Deadly Poison.

The question has been asked which
is the most deadly poison? So far as is
known snake poison consists of a peptone
which produces local liberation, an un.
known virulent substance, which causes
in6ltration OF blood when injected into
the tissues, aud an albumen which is
not apparently poisonous When snake
venom is concentrated by removing the
third substance and removing the other
two, what is left constitutes the most
powerful poison known to toxic ,logy.
1t is forty times more poewrful thau the
original snake venom 1t has been rec.
koned that q single thimbleful of it
suitably applied would be enough to kill
25,0OO persons.
