DRAFTED THE PLATFORM.
Editor Jones OF the St Louis RepubIic
Did Nearly All the Work.

Chicago July 9.-Onc man may I've cred
tied with the authorship OF the Democratic
platform. This honor belongs TO Col.
Charles Il. Jones, publisher of the st.
Louis Republic. Col. Jones wrote the
first draft Of the declara tiun OF principles.
The document was arranged and wurticd by
him, after CONSULTATION with Senators Cock
reil and Vest and other Democratic leaders,
and his draft was accepted by the committee
on resolutions, after three minor planks had
been added and some changes made in the
wording, which did not affect the principle
or spirit Of Col. Jones work.
The most vital plank of the Democratic
declaration, that dealing with the finau-
cial question and outlining with consil-
erable detail the articles OF faith held by
the silver leaders, was almost entirely the
produc: OF the st. Louis editors pen. He
also crystallizei into verbal form the other
points OF the party creed, foremost among
them the tariff AMI income tax plank, and
those OF lesser Importance. pianks relating
TO Federal interference in State affairs.
the denunciation of Republican Congresses,
the civil service plank and the declaration
against third terms for Presidents.
The evening times., 1896-07-09
NO MORE OVERHEAD WIRES

Attorney Thufnas is certainly on the
right side Of the question as regards the
request Of the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company for permission To re-
move an overhead wire from one location
10 another. He holds that We permit should
not issue because IL tie Congressional in
hibition against the siringing ~ additional
overhead wires. and that wires To lie Put
in a new place. even though others mny
he discontinued elsewhere. cnme under the
classification ot additional" .r Thomas
eontenti0n Is entirely logical. BY transfer
ing wires from s,me unriofitablc locality
TO new territory. the very thing which
Congress intended to prevent would bc
accomplished. In this rosIc6t oil electrical
companies. whether telegraph, telephone,
light or railway, make common cause
for none OF them wants TO incur the ex-
pense of ccnduits wherever it can lie
avoided.
Right here is where Mr. Thomas makes
q mistake. He says that underground con-
duts are too expensive To expect the cleo
trical companies 10 extend them into the
ht quCsiioi VI SalNh's W .'S
companies, in the first place, is not at all
to he Considered where II clashes with the
interests of the public. These interests
are involved in the Disagreement OF streets
by network of overhead wires, and tie dan
ger 10 life and property from their Irenking
and becoming entang!ci. In this respect
our municipal authorities may well model
cities In none of these is there sign Of
overhead wires, and yet telegraph and teie-
phone connections are carried all over
the city, and also to suburbs located at a
far greater distance from the supply centers
than any near Washington. In Eerlin
and Hamburg, for instance, moi an overhead
electric wire OF any sort can lie found,
yet there is an abundant supply OF ;elc-
phones and electric lights in suburbs fruin
ten TO fifteen miles distant. What is pos
sible there. surely ought 10 be practicable
here: and II companies there do not find 1t
too expensive 10 carry their wires 10 the
suburbs in oondui similar rconditionssiodld
prevail here. for the relative proportion pf
expense and income is about the same.
Overhead wires are public nuisance
and as such not to be tolerated. They. as
well as the unsightly poles on which they
are strung, disfigure the streets. The
people of Berlin wOul hold up their hands
In holy horror il they were TO see such
poles on their Inter den Linden as are
in evidence ON almost every corner on
Pennsylvania avenue. Overhead wires
have no place in the streets OF 4 we'll
regulated city.

CONVENTION
Continued from Second Page.

Jidate will have an even chance OF winning
the nomination. Notwithstanding the al
legged secret movement against Gov. Mat
thcws, it is believed he Will make ii suffi-
Cient showing on The first ballot tn Demon
stra te to tile silver leaders that he is aiaotor
On account of the general feeling IN
favor of Gov. Matthews as u second choice,
this showing on the first ballot is expected
to bring him the votes of several cciega-
tioDs that will be split after they realize
that their choice candidate has no show
OF winning
The nominating speech for Matthews will
be made by Senator Turpie, who is recog-
nized as one of the most eloquent men in
tile convention. His powerful influence
among the silver men of the country has
brought many votes to Matthews and has
almost succeeded in making him the candi-
date from Indiana, instead OF the man lie
represents. Senator Turpie has refused
positively 10 allow any such proceeding.
and his speech placing the name OF Mat
thews before the convention VIII be mas
terly effort and it is calculated TO win over
many.wavering delegates.
California Will second the nomination OF
Matthews. Delegate Trippett OF Sen Diego.
one of the most enthusiastic Matthews
men in the convention, Will make the
speech, and 1t will be second only to that
or Turpie Trippett was, before his re-
moval TO California, member Of the
Indiana State senate. and il was there he
learned to admire Claude Matthews. He Is
still young man, but lie occupies a rosi-
ton in California politics as an orator
t, hot ,S
Gov Matthews has charged that certain
Indiana men. not memicrs Il the deicGa-
ton. have been secretly knitting him, but
their work has teen cuunternc'ed by the
enthusiastic support he has received from
the authorized delegation and the silver
men in ether States. rartic ulariy because
OF the fact that the men who are charged
with the underhand work are sound money
merand can say nothing against him ex-
cept that he is free silver advocate.
This argument. the Matthew'S men contend,
is the best possible thiEg that could be
circulated among the silver delegates.
The controversy over the national COM
mitt tcestip In Indiana has not get been set
tied. II viii not he disposed OF until the
nomination for the Presidency has been
made. Leon o. Pailey, the original candi-
date OF the silver men On the delega ton,
has practically withdraw in favor uf J.
Gil Shankln. OF Evansville, silver man Of
longer standing. and bitter opponent of
President Cleveland.
