ties Of Success.
The Calls HEADQUARTERS,
HOTEL LINDELL,

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July "a.
After twenty hours of work as a men,
Der of the committee on platform, l am
once more free, and turn to the readers of
THE CALL. Contrary to the press reports
and the apprehension of many earnest
Populists that there would be a deter
mined effort made to construct platform
which would conform as near as possible
to the Chicago platform, L saw no evi-
dence of it, except in the persistent objec-
tions of General Weaver to prevent any
open expression of the irredeemability of
paper money. In all other respects there
was a notable freedom in discussion and
action on all subjects under considera-
ton.
Iudeed, the unanimity of purpose and
feeling developed during the long hours of
discussion is rarely seen in the framing of
political platforms. 1t is undeniable that
there is no division of feeling among Pop
ulists over the recognized issues OF the
party. There is such harmony among
them as to the principles of the party as
our country has not seen before in any
other political party. And this union is
growing stronger as closer study and
larger experience widen the vision and in
crease the devotion of Populists.
l have tried to make it clear why it is
that the Peoples party will hold together
tenaciously in the present crisis. Differ
as Populists may over the policy to be
pursued at this time in the cnoice of
Presidential candidates and as to all the
other peculiar complications which have
arisen out of the silver attitude of the new
Democracy and its overtures for an ali-
ance with the Peoples party can see no
reason to fear that the party will degen-
crate or lose its integrity by the peculiar
companionship thus suddenly forced
upon it.
/ confess that it is a singular political
condition. 1t has grest possibilities OF
success, if strict honor and broad SYM
pathy shall govern the relations of the
unprecedented alliance, but am not over
sanguine that the outcome will prove to
be victory for the allied forces, since it is
so unlikely that strict honor and broad
sympathy viii rule the campaign. But it
is hazardous TO predict the results of an
alliance which is without precedent. Your
correspondent begs off tonight. He had
but three hours sleep last night and had
written the above outline in the conven-
ton while the nominating speeches for
Vice-Presidential candidates are being
made. With the strain of the platform
committee work done and nights rest
shall have something to say tomorrow.

patriotism and decency in the gentlemen
on the floor and in the galleries to accord
a respectful hearing to any one.
The audience, shamed into silence,
quieted down, but the hour of midnight
being now past all further attempts at
remonstrance was abandoned and the con-
vention rushed to its fate.
The voting for Vice-President began at
1905 A. NJ. The call of the roll was COM
pleted at 1925. Then Mr.. Burkitt of Mis-
sissippi took the stand to withdraw his
name and to ask his friends to change
their votes to other candidates.
Mr.. Mimms of Tennessee next suggested
to his friends that they cast their votes for
Watson.
Then changing of votes began, aud dele
gates almost tumbled over one another to
change their votes to Watson.
Finally Texas changed 103 to Watson
and settled it. A motion was made to
suspend the rules and make Watson the
unanimous choice of the convention. This
was done, and the next moment the lights
went out. This threw a damper on the
usual circus parade, which had been ar
ranged for. The hall remained in almost
total darkness, except for candles which
the reporters supplied. The band struck
up and the sergeants-at-arms implored the
audience not to be stampeded. A horri BILE
din rose out of the darkness and the stre-
peater" vainly shouted, Come to order l'

trio lights came back to life and the chair
announced that Mr.. Watson had been de-
clared the unanimous nominee for Vice
President.
General Weaver again tried to get the
convention to adjourn, but was cried
down.
The chairman announced that the next
order of business was the selection of a
National committee. The convention re-
fused to accept and the chairman retorted.
That's your order of business any
how" He put the motion to adjourn and
declared 1t carried, and at IL go A. NJ. the
convention adjourned until 3 A. M. to-
