The Situation Mixed.

Never since the government
was established have so many
complications arisen as in the
present political situation. Tom
Watson's unique expression
Where are we at ?" was coined
some time ago, but in its apple
ability to the situation that
brought it out, it did not fit like
it does now, when we interrogate
ourselves as to the present jumb-
ed condition of affairs political.

they know that; but they are puz-
lied to know just where they
stand, or whittier they will drift.
They are asking themselves
Where are we at ?" Whole
regiments who recently swore
allegiance to Bill Mckinley and
She Mckinley bill, have studied
The situation. They seric usly

son. Tom. is the Populist can
didate for Vice-President and he
is more puzzled than ever to
know Where he is at ?" Sewall
is in the same fix. Democrats
and Populists are completely up
set and praying for some salts
factory way to straighten out the
crooked situation. All realize
that mistake has been made,
and as the matter now stands the
silver forces are divided. With
Populists voting for Bryan and
Watson electors and Democrats
supporting Bryan and Sewall
electors, the silver men will be
just as much divided as if the
Populists had nominated a new
man for President instead of
nominating Bryan. This is too
plain to need any calculation.
Neither Watson nor Sewall seem
to have the least intention of re-
signing. The middle of the
road"Populists even contemplate
nominating straightout Popu-
list candidate for President. The
Democrats have passed the con-
templating point-we mean the
genuine Democrats, the pure all.
yellow Democrats without silv-
er lining-and have expressed a
bold determination to nominate
a President and Vice President
sometime in September. The
free coinage Democrats, termed
Populists by the all-yellow fell
lows, would not meet the regular
Populist organization halfway,
or anywhere near halfway. The
first party to adopt a genuine 16
TO / silver platform was the
Populist. They fought for the
principle without flinching, when
they we're called lunatics, anarch-
lists, fanatics and ghost dancers
by the very men for whom they
were nghtlng. Inc Bryan wing
of the Democratic party snatched
that plank as safe one on which |
to ride into port. But the Popu-
lists. while accepting Bryan as
the silver candidate, could not
see the point of the Bryan party
hogging everything. They stole
the Populist plank on the money
question-free coinage of silver,
opposition to national banks as
banks of issue, and advocacy of
the issue of all money by the
government. That was all right.
The Populists said: I'VE must

row your candidate into port on
our plank, which you have stolen,
but don't propose that you fell
lows shall swallow up our organ
ization and our identity. We
have accepted your Presidential
candidate. That is generous 10
extreme. Now we propose to
name candidate for Vice Presi-
dent. If you are a little bit gen
erous and in this fight for prin-
ciple as we are, you will grant
us that much" But it seems
that the Bryan party is not in
the granting business. They ask
for all and are willing to give
nothing. But they realize that
the Populist party is now an i'm
portant factor in the situation
and is capable of smashing their
plans and hopes to smithereens.
If the Populists were built like
the Bryan party they would have
put up a straight Populist ticket
and asked Bryan and Sewall to
withdraw. But they didn't.
The principle at stake is too
great for them to do that. But
they have come more than half
way to the Bryan party. Now
what will the Bryan party do !?
Will they have the gall to say !:
"You give us all, but we'll give
you nothing" That will mean
probable defeat for both parties.
The Populist party can now show
great strength, and is gaining
every day. 1t has the most bril-
liant array of statesmen and ora
tors of any party in America, and
has put forth the greatest plat
form ever framed by a political
party. 1t is gaining strength
daily, and if the Bryan party can
afford to go it alone, the Popu-
lists can. But we sincerely hope
the silver men will finally be
united in some way and march
together to a glorious victory.
Rather than see the enemies of
the people and of the republic
come into power we would will
ingly see the Populists withdraw
their candidate for Vice Presi-
dent. This would be an act of
generosity and unselfish patriot
ism never equalled by any polit-
ical party. If, however, the sill
yer forces remain divided and
are defeated, the Bryan party
will be responsible for the defeat.
The Populists have the grandest
platform of principles ever pro-
principles that if APP
piled to our government will in
sure equal rights for all, "a gov
eminent of the people, by the
people and for the people," in
fact, and many steps in advance
of any yet taken oy the Ameri-
can republic. The party cannot
hope to accomplish all these re-
forms at once, nor even by one
administration of the party. The
important question of the pres
ent is the money question, and if
that can be won next fall the
people can we'll rejoice over a
great victory. If the Bryan
party had placed principle above
an empty party name they would
have withdrawn from the old or
ganization long before the ma
tional convention. Then all
could have met on common
and there would have
been no danger of division of re-
form forces. AS it is now we
have the silver forces divided
and their enemies divided.
