They are afraid that the President will

full if it could be passed over his head.
President Cleveland has never signed a

to issue policies for 20 per cent less than
union rates, because Of a rebuilding
clause, which it is claimed will lessen
incendiarism.

FARGO. N. D., July 29.-All day the
Populist state convention has been at
sea, and it was late in the evening be-
fore the least indication of an agree
ment on the fusion proposition Of the
Democratic party was apparent. The
convention was called to order by
Cl airman Stimmell, and B. f. Wallace
of Steele was chosen temporary chair
man. After the different committees
had been named, the chairman of the
Populist conference committee reported
that a meeting had been held with the
conference committee Of che Democratic
party, and that they could not agree on
the ticket. It was then that the
Wordy Fight Commenced.
Some of the Democrats wanted to name
the man from their ranks for congress,
while others wanted their man for gov.
ernor. 1t was on these two offices that
the disagreement existed. Finally q
motion was made that vote of the
convention be taken on the question Of
which one of the offices would be
fought for. The convention decided by
large vote to demand the governor
ship. The convention positively re-
fused to fuse if the three electors would
not be given to the Populists. They
claim that they are entitled to these in
that they supported Bryan for president
at St. Louis. The Democratic confer.
ence committee is composed of the lead.

DENVER, July 30.-By vote of 48 TO
30 the Republican state central com.
mittee adopted the following resolu-
ton:
Believing that the best interests of the
United States, as well as the state of Colo
RADIO, demand the election of William Mo
Kinley as president and Garret A. Hobart
as vice president of the United States, as
nominated at the ST. Louis convention,
therefore be it
Resolved, That it Is the sense of this
meeting that the committee shall take
such steps as are necessary to place before
the people of the state Of Colorado for
their suffrage in November straight Re-
publican ticket, headed by Republican
electors, who will cast their vote, if oppor-
tunity affords, for Mckinley and Hobart.
The Meeting Lively One.
The meeting of the committee was in
many respects the most exciting that
body has ever held. The minority, or
Bryan and Sewall faction, was led by
A. M. Stevenson, ex-state senator and
one of the bolting Colorado delegates at
St. Louis. J. L. Hodges spoke for the
Mckinley and Hobart Republicans.
When the resolution was offered Bit
ter debate ensued in which personalities
were exchanged by the warning factions,
the minority making the open state
ment that money had been used by
Eastern Mckinley managers to influ-
ence the state committee. The resolu-
tion was pat to vote and carried by 10
majority.
Another spirited discussion followed
when Irving w. Howbert of Colorado
Springs, who has been chairman Of the
committee for two years, rendered his
resignation Mr. Howbert stated that
he did not take the step
In View of the Present Difficulties,
but because he would be absent in
Europe during the campaign. The
friends of Hodges Immediately placed
his name in nomination for the chair
manship, the minority presenting John
w. Lowell of Routt county. Mr..
Hodges was elected by vote of 4S to
81, some dissatisfied members declining
to vote. On taking the chair Mr..
Hodges created a sensation by announc-
ing that Republican members of the
committee who were in sympathy with
the national Democratic ticket and who
proposed to work for it would better
resign and that his rulings would be
against them. The Bryan and Sewall
men refused to leave and the committee
adjourned in great confusion.

that the hall at Madison Square Garden
could be secured for that date, Mr..
Bryan announces that he will receive
the notification committee of the Dem.
ocratic national convention there Aug.
~. 1t is known that Mr.. Bryan is now
preparing his speech of acceptance of
the nomination. He expects to lay in
his New York speech the groundwork
for the campaign, and it is believed
that up to the date of it's delivery no
man will learn from his lips just what
he may be expected to do in relation to
the Populist nomination. Possibly he
may not even then declare himself, but
it is believed that he will then give
some intimation Of his plans in relation
to the matter. Further than the above
announcement there was nothing given
out from the Bryan home during the
day for publication.

Propositions for His Withdrawal Will Not
BE Considered.
ATLANTA, Ga, July 30. - Hon.
Thomas E. Watson is out in strong
editorial in his paper stating his
grounds for accepting the nomination
for vice president from the Populist
national convention He refers to Mr..
Sewal as an individual of standing and
a free silver Democrat. but adopts the
argument elaborated on at st. Louis
that the nomination of a Populist for
second place was necessary to preserve
the autonomy of the Populist organiza-
tion, especially in the South. The edi-
torial is accepted, not only as letter Of
acceptance, but also as an official ulti-
matum that propositions for with
drawal will not be considered by Mr..
Watson or the Populists and that the
case now rests with Mr.. Sewall,
Demands Sewalps Withdrawal.
The announcement is made in a
signed editorial 1t virtually demands
the withdrawal of the Democratic can.
didate for vice president. Throughout
the editorial inslnuations are made,
and, where it seems to analyze the situ-
alton, develops the fact that Mr. Wat
son is making a strong demand for his
immediate recognition as Bryan's run
ming mate. In part he says:
There are mutterings of discomfort
all along the line, and, if Mr.. Sewall
declines to retire for harmonys sake,
the rank and file of our party may
break away from the leaders and refuse
to vote for Mr.. Bryan at ALL
