with the exception of two, the en-
tire ninety-two repudiated the nom
ination of Tom Watson for vice
president and declared that thew
would support the democratic nom-

SeGai: ana W ats0n Both Can Not be
on the Ticket in Ohio.
Cincinnati, O., July 27.-Last win.
ter Representative Dana introduced
into the Legislature bill to regulate
elections in Ohio. It's provisions,
when looked up, are such that it is
impossible for Sewall and Watson
both 10 have their names On the
Australian ballot, the only legal tic
ke. that can be voted. All attorneys
admit there is not flaw in the bill
and no court would consider it. But
if there were any chance for suit
there is not time enough to get it to
the highest court before the election.
All the politicians in the State, re-
gardless of politics, are talking
about the bill. 1t is expected that
the two old parties will secretly enter
into the State Populist convention
and attempt to secure such action as
will be to their advantage and a
raost desperate tight is expected
The Dana law, in substance, is that
no candidates name can appear on
the Australian ballot more than once,
no matter by how many parties he is
nominated. If the Populists agree
at their State convention to indorse
the Democratic candidates for cleo.
tors in the State there will be either
no Popullst State electoral ticket or
no Democratic electoral ticket. Each
candidate for elector must 60 on the
ballot as member of single party.
Should the Populists indorse all
the Democratic electoral candidates
they would not lose their standing
as State organization. Their State
ticket would hold that place for
them if they cast more than one per
cert of the entire vote. 1t is pro
posed that an agreement be made
by the Populists and Democrats by
which six ofthe Democratic electoral
candidates withdraw and their places
be filed by Populist candidates
This would have to be done with an
understanding that the electors SO
chosen would vote for Bryan. 1t
will be difficult to effect this agree.

Mae and Hanna Something
Must he Done.
Canton, Ohio, July Ex-senator
Sherman, who was here two or
three days last week to participate in
the centennial exercises, is somewhat
alarmed at the manifestation CT the
silver sentiment in certain sections
and communities. He told Mai Nc
Kinley that his voluminous CORE
spondence was laden with inquiries
about the money question, and that
he was of the opinion that the most
active measures to combat the silver
sentiment ought to be taken at once.
He urges both Mr.. Hanna and Mai
Mckinley to have the speaking cam
paign begin at once, and said be was
ready and willing to take the stump
at moments notice. Other Repub-
licans of ofprominence, such as Senator
Hawley and ex Gov. Merriam of Min
nesota. have expressed themselves in
pretty much the same manner to
both Maj. Mckinley and Mr.. Hanna.
Maj. Mckinley and his manager have
reached the conclusion that the best
results this year will be attained by
holding large number of political
meetings 1t is to be q campaign OF
talk.

As there will be business of import.

In alluding to the National Re.
publican Finance Committee, the
Globe Democrat boldly intimates
that this is to be a campaign of
Doodle and says:
"The committee is one of the
strongest organizations of the kind
ever made up for any campaign. It
represents nearly every big manu-
featuring or industrial interest IN
Chicago and the West, and its mem
belshIp represents not less than
S100,000,OO0 All elements of the
Republican party are represented
The full import of the selections
made ;s that Mckinley will have
raised for him one of the largest
campaign funds any candidate ever
had, and that money will be used
freely in stirring up enthusiasm for
him and the principles he represents.

There is trouble ahead for Mr..
Hobart, republican vice-presidential

Chicago, July 22.-Haunas Hi
nois Campaign Committee got to.
gether to day and decided that
S200,O0c should be put into the
fight in this State.
Reports from all over the State
indicate that the free silver sentiment
is growing enormously, and the com
mlttee proposes to distribute i'm
inediately several tons Of gold litera
ture il the hope that it Will prove a
check On the silver advance.
The conference disclosed much
friction between the State and ma
tlonal leaders over the distribution
of the money. The Hanna men want
no one but original Mckinley men
on their committees and insist on a
majority Of original Mckinley men
on committees which handle money.
They propose to push Mckinley,
regardless OF Iauner and the rest of
the State ticket. This plan has
caused Tanners friends to protest

the committee

st. Louis, No. July 27.-The af-
fairs of the Peoples party is now in
the hands of Senator Butler of North
Carolina, the chairman of the nation
al committee. Today the nine mem
bers OF the retiring Populist execu.
tive committee made formal settle
ment with the new committee. They
turned over to Chairman Butler and
Secretary EdSerton all the money
on hand, and their accounts were
approved.
The silver party has established
temporary headquarters in the Cor
coran building, Washington, d. c..
Future events will determine wheth.
e. or not it will be continued there.
Vice Chairman Stevens, who will
have active charge of the headquar.
ters, and who will relieve Chairman
Lane of much work connected with
the coming campaign, will leave for
the capital city in short time. It is
rumored that the Populist national
executive committee will also make
its headquarters in that city, but
Chairman Butler refused to either
confirm or deny the statement. The
selection of headquarters has been
left to him, and decision as to that
matter will probably not be made
for several weeks. Charles b. Lam g
chairman of the Silver national com
m'ttee, left tonight for bis home in

Neb, and hold q conference with
Bryan.
While 1t has not yet been definite.
ly decided, there will probably be
no formal notification of Bryan by
either the Populist or the Silver men.
1t was learned from prominent
Western member of the Silver ma
tloEal committee that it was the in
tention OF both the Silver aud Pop
ulist committee to waive the usual
formal notification, and on August
II hold ratification meeting
In New York, at which Bry.

will be announced.
A proposition looking to the fu

Democratic leaders who have it un.

this fusion, the Populist are said to
have demanded that they be given
