WASHINGTON, june Is, 1896.

William Mckinley, of Ohio, has beer
nominated for certain defeat, and Hen
ry NJ Teller or Joseph G. Sibley viii be
the next president. Such seems to be
the opinion of nearly all the old politi
clans in Washington. Men lil1en Sen
ator Teller to Abraham Lincoln, and
even eastern Republicans say ''What
a pity he is not our candidate instead
of a professional office-seeker and NOR
al coward like Mckinley" The Jewish
and pseudo Christian usureIs have sue
ceeded in corrupting the Republican
party and it now remains to be seen if
they can corrupt the whole country.
The brave detection of Senator Teller,
Cannon, Dubois, Pettigrew, and the
many others, and the enthusiastic way
in which it was received by the people,
has alarmed the gold conspirators.
Their plan was to allow the Democratic
National Convention to nominate an
old Democrat on a free silver platform,
and thus divide the silver forces. Now
they see that they have overreached
themselves. The outburst of publicap-
plause of the boiling republicans has
shown them that Mckinley cannot be
elected, As ex-senator John j. Ingals,
of Kansas, telegraphed the New York
Journal, Mckinley goes to certain de-
feat and the Republican party to its
death"
They realize that the game is in the
hands of the reform forces, who have
only to unite upon Senatar Teller or
ex-Congressman Sibley to put sincere
friend of silver and man of unim-
peachable integrity in the White House
The whole enormous Republican silver
vote will go to either Teller or Sibley, if
nominated. Congressman Skinner, of
North Carolina, says that the Populists,
will gladly support Teller or Sibley. j.
M. Devine, of Nebraska, who made a
gallant and nearly successful race for
Congress on the Populist ticket in 1894,
says the same thing, as does j. Fl. Turn.
er, secretary of the National executive
committee of the Peoples party.
If the silver Democrats viii rise to
the occasion, take the initiative and
nominate either Teller or Sibley. The
silver Republicans and Populists will
help to elect the candidate. This con
dition of affairs has aroused consterna-
ton in the conspirators camp and has
caused them to change their plans.
