The first stop was at Greensburg

At Johnstown depot there was an
other large and enthusiastic gathering.

minutes and the train was pulled out
amid roar of cheers.
At Altoona there we're thousands at

CHICAGO, Aug. 1l.-Chairman Hanna

many men. He is reported as saying
that the best way to reach the great ar
mics of voters and workmen is to con-
suit with those who employ them, and
to that end it has been arranged, it is
said, for the employers to hold meetings
in their shops and factories for the pur-

New YORK, Aug. 1l.-W. J, Bryan
stepped upon the soil of the Empire
state tonight for the first time since his
nomination for the presidency by the
democratic national convention at Chi
cago. 1t was practically stepping into
an avowed section of opposition to his
candidacy-opposition not on party lines
but said to exist within the party under
whose emblem he looks for victory in
November.
IT, however, the ordeal WAS one that
would make nervous the average man,
it's effect upon Bryan was not, to the
observer, OF that character When Bryan
stepped from the train and grasped the
hand OF Senator Jones' chairman OF the
democratic national committee, his greet
ing showed not bit of nervousness, but
either tinge Of bravery in facing the
ordeal or gladness at being among those
with whom he could discuss and argue
the great issues of the campaign. The
crowd that gathered at the Jersey City

the Bryan party was not as large as ex,

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 1.-THE gold
standard democrats today decided that
the new party should be known as the
national democratic party. Its organ
izers call those supporting the Chicago
platform and ticket, populist-democrat
party. The national convention of the
national democratic party will be held
at indianapolis the first week in Sep
tember. There was a unanimity in
the conference on the selection
of the name of national demo-
cratic party and also in dctermin-
ing to distinguish the two parties by re-
ferring to those supporting the Chicago
platform as the populist democrat party.
There was no difference before

tee meeting at which it was de-
cided to call convention and nomin.
ate another national ticket Some of
the eastern and southern members op-
posed this ticket at first, but when they
were told that in the middle states party
fealty was 80 regarded that many demo-
Gratis would not vote unless there WAS a
third ticket, the objections from the
east and south we're withdrawn and the
decision to hold convention was unani-
nous. 1t was argued, as the campaign
proceeded and the republicans began to
say harsh things of the democrats, that
many of the latter would vote
for Bryan and Sewall, as dis
tasteful as the platform was to
them, and as the eastern and southern
gold standard men said they were for
anything to defeat the Chicago ticket
and platform, they readily consented to
the plan outlined by the executive COM
mittee, consisting of Bragg of Wisconsin,
Bynum of Indiana, Haldeman of Ken
tucky, Broadhead of Missouri, and Rob-
bins Of Illinois. H. G. Robbins of Chi
cago was the absent member Of the ex-
ecutive committee, but Ewing took his
place, while Senator Palmer, ex Mayor
Hopkins, and others we're active in hav
ing the plan for a third ticket carried
out.
At 12o'clock tonight Chairman Palmer
announced his executive committee, as

THE DOODLE CAMPAIGN,

Chairman Mark Hanna, who is man
aging the Mckinley gold campaign, has
just returned to Cleveland from New
York, lie expresses himself we'll salts
fed with his visit and says vigorous
canvass in behalf of the gold candidate
will be prosecuted in the east as we'll as
in the west. OF this no one has any
doubt 1t was for the purpose of raising
large corruption fund with which to
carry on this canvass that Mr.. Hanna
went east. There he was received with
open arms and open purses by the
money kings. TO man they rallied to
the Mckinley standard, pledged all the
funds that will be needed in the bold at
tempt that is to be made to debauch the
ballot and secure by the most corrupt
means the election of the mortgaged
candidate. The eastern millionaires OK.
pended immense sums to secure the
nomination Of Mr.. Mckinley, and it is
Hanna's boast that they will not stop at a
few millions of dollars to elect him. Some
people will hardly credit that story, yet
the evidences of it's truth are patent to
everyone. While in New York Mr..
Hanna was constantly in conference
with this rich coterie, and before he left
he named finance committee of about
one hundred, whose duty it is to raise
money for the campaign. II any person
imagines that the wealth of the east is
not, as a body, arrayed against the
masses in this battle, let him read the
following list of Mr.. Hanna's finance
com mittee:
