They are in the campaign for lucre,
and many of them never marched IN
der the Democratic colors, but for the
reason that as they marched they
found lois of golden eggs.
More and bigger golden eggs were
to be found on the other side IN TINS
campaign and that explains why they
are over there. Always reaching out
for the spoils, they will do SO ia their
new companionship, and if they are
to be kept in place their pockets SHOULD
be we'll weighted with gold.
That is the stock of Democrats who
have gone into the Republican camp
to defeat Bryan and use their COLI
science by voting against free silver.

ocrats do most largely reside. Ihey

To Catch Poor Men.

From the st. Louis Republic
II. K. King White of Pine Blum
Ark. is frank, open, honest goldbug
boiling Democrat. ,,,
He stopped over at the Lindell Hotel
Friday on his way from the Indian,
spolis Convention, where he assisted
tbe other aides of Mr.. Hanna to nomi-
nate Palmer and Buckner. Mr.. King
White met lot of Democrats at the
hotel who are not subservient to pluto
cratic influences and an argument en-
sned. 1t was then the gold man from
Arkansas let out some secrets. de
said that the funds to help Mckinley
we're coming from the East and that
there was plenty at the same stand. He
admitted that he did not intend to vote
Cor Palmer and Buckner, that the ticket
was only a blind TO catch the votes OF
Democrats who would not vote for Me
nOf course l will vote for Nc

The Third Ticket.
From the New York Journal.

1
What the effect of Palmer and
Buckner S nomination at Indianapolis
will be on the general result of the
national election is a matter OF
diversified opinion. Party lines are
drawn in furnishing an answer to the
question.
Republicans argue that if the gold
standard ticket had not been placed in
the field many Democrats would on
election day cast their votes for Bryan
and not for Mckinley, and for that
reason it means loss of votes to the
Chicago ticket.
Another reason given why the
indianapolis nominations will benefit
Mckinley is that the split in the Demo
cratic ranks will be augmented by the
aggressive campaign which will be
waged not so much against the
Republican ticket as against Bryan and
Sewall.
Democratic opinion is to the effect
that Palmer and Buckner s nomination
means victory for Bryan. 1t is argued
by them that the gold standard Demo.
Gratis would never have voted for the
Chicago ticket, and that with ticket
of their own it means the loss of many
votes for Mckinley.
The Van Buren press., 1896-09-12

From the New York Journal
There has never been anything
exactly like the indianapolis proceeding
in American politics before. There
have been numerous side show parties
in the past, and plenty of ''forlorn
hope candidates, but there has never
been ticket put up for the express
purpose of being knocked down. The
Prohibitionists make their hopeless
nominations with the idea that their
candidates ought to be elected, and
with the intention of making the best
fight they can for them, regardless of
the effect of their action on any other
party. Charles O'Conor was not
nominated to defeat Greeley, but to
keep the apostolic succession of straight
Democratic candidates. But the
indianapolis ticket was not put up with
even pretence that it was to be Loyalty
supported on its own merits, but simply
and solely to secure indirect Democratic
aid for the most conspicuous enemy OF
Democratic principles.
The absence Of good faith is displayed
in the very nature of the nominations.
The selection of two men, one of whom
will be eighty three land the other
seventy seven years old when the next
Presidential term ends is an advertise
ment that the candidates were not
nominated to perform the duties of
President and Vice President of the
United States, but to fitch votes from
Bryan on election day.
General Palmer and General Buckner
will take the stump and laud each
other, but they will not vote their own
ticket. Nor will they get the votes OF
the delegates to the convention that
nominated them. Did anybody ever
before witness the spectacle of a
national convention whose members, in
the first flush of enthusiasm over its
completed work, exclaimed; Now
we have nominated Democratic ticket
that will make the election sure thing
for the Republican partyP
I'm vain is the net spread in the sight
of any bird. - 1t would have been wise
for body processing to be a Demo
cratic convention, and nominating
something purporting to be Demo
cratic ticket, to keep up at least a
decent pretence of being in earnest. AT
present the parlor into which the
Democratic fly is asked to walk is too
manifestly Mr., Hanna to be entlclng'

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Moreton
frewen, one of the best known
authorities on finance in Great Britain
being interviewed in London by a
representative of the Journal, had this
to say of the silver question:
i personally agree with Mr. Bryan that if the
United states should open her minis at to lf
she can raise the exchange value of silver all
the world over to her rating | hold this
opinion not upon mere grounds of theory but
upon what we actually saw during the month OF
June, In 1893. We saw the minis of India closed
and we saw the effect of that closure the price
Of silver fell more than rs per cent in five days
II the closing of the Indian minis single handed
mad such colossal effect as that upon the price
OF silver bullion, how great would be the effect
experienced If the United States, with her
enormous exporting power, were to open her
minis TO free eoinage2 1t seems to me almost a
rule Of three sum that With the minis open in
the United States silver would go to l29 cents an
ounce and remain there. / agree in holding
this view with President Andrews OF Brown
University, and with number of authorities on
this side of the water. including Mr.. H. H. ibis
and MI. Grenfell, both ex-GOvernors of the Bank
OF England, who stated this view explicitly in
the evidence they gave before the Royal Com.
mission on Currency in 1887"
