THEIR CALL ISSUED
GOLD DEMOCRATS MAKE AN APPEAL
TO THE PEOPLE.

Anti-Silverites Asked to Organize and
apolis Man Selected For Sergeant-at-
Arms Of the Convention.
CHICAGO, Aug 18.-The executive
committee Of the National Democratic
party was in session during the day and
issued call for national convention
at Indianapolis Sept. 2. The call first
reviews at length the history of the
Democratic party, which 'has for
nearly a century kept it's faith without
variableness or shadow of turning"
Of the Chicago convention the call
says:
The delegates to the convention held at
Chicago were authorized and had the
power to proclaim a platform embodying
their views Of the true solution of the par
ticular problems of the government now
agitating the ration, but upon the condi-
ton that such platform should be con-
sistent with the cardinal principles held
by the party throughout it's existence.
These principles constitute the essential
element of the party's life. They dis
tinguish it from all other political organ
izations. If they are abandoned the party
ceases to exist. 1t was, therefore, not
within the power of any majority of the
delegates assembled at Chicago to bind
the Democrats of the United States to a
platform inconsistent with the partys
principles, or to any action that should re-
suit in their surrender.
Convention Doings Denounced.
In violation of the trust committed to
them a majority of the delegates assem-
bled in that convention, ignoring the
rights of the minority, unseated regularly
elected delegates to make places for others
in sympathy with themselves. They pro-
claimed sectional combination of the
South and West against the North ard
East. They impeached the honesty and
patriotism of President Cleveland, who,
under exceptional embarrassments pro-
duced by past errors of legislation, has
heroically maintained the honor and in
tegrity of the republic. Against the pro-
test of one-third of the delegates they prn-
mulgated platform at variance with the
essential principles of the Democratic
party.
This platform is in it's policies danger
GUS to the welfare and life of free govern
ment. 1t is mischievous in it's tendencies.
But even more threatening and mischiev-
GUS was the spirit Of the convention that
adopted it, spirit manifested not alone
by it's affirmative action, but as we'll by it's
reckless rejection Of every proposition
tending to temper the declarations of the
convention with conservatism and justice.
Regarding tho Silver Question.
The platform proposes to degrade the
coin Of the United States by means of the
free, unlimited and independent coinage
of silver by our government and by the
exercise Of the power of the nation to COM
pei the acceptance Of deprecated coins at
their nominal value, thereby working an
injustice to creditors, defrauding the Ia
borer Of q large part Of his earnings and
savings robbing pensioned soldiers Of a
part Of their pensions, contracting the
currency by the expulsion Of gold coin

While proposing to advocate policy of
bimetallism, it censures the present Dem
cratic administration for maintaining the
parity of gold and silver. It proposes to
reduces this country to condition of sill
yer monometallism, with its vacillating
and unreliable standard Of values, and
tends to bring the farmer, the wageearner
and the salaried man to the wretched con-
dition of the same classes in countries in
which the silver standard prevails, and
where the rewards of agriculture and Ia
Dor are lower than anywhere else in the
world.
Absolved From Obligation.
The Chicago convention having thus de-
parted from the recognized Democratic
faith and promulgated doctrines new and
strange to the Democracy, all Democrats
are absOlved from obligation to support
it's programme.
The duty of the hour is to stand stead
fast in the defense of our ancient faith.
That this party, as we have known it,
may not die, let the faithful of years rally
around it's historic banner, reform it's
broken ines and, with abiding faith in
the final triumph of it's principles, unite to
restore the name Democrat to it's former
meaning and proud distinction.
TO this end we request all Democrats
who are opposed to the platform adopted
and candidates nominated at Chicago to
organize in their several states and to send
representatives to the convention of the
National Democratic party, to be held at
Indianapolis on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 1895,
in accordance with the call heretofore
issued by the national committee.
One Of the most important matters
settled at the meeting was the selection
of Walter Kesseler for sergeant-at-arms.
Mr. Kesseler is the manager of large
quarry company at Minneapolis.

CHAPTER XIV

When Dick Townley and Pierre en-
tered the dining car, they found that
they could not get seats together and so
sat down at different tables Opposite
the former at the same table-each table
is seated for four-were two gentlemen
whom he had never seen before. One
was tall, spare, goodly featured man
with a military appearance. He was
dressed after the prevailing English
fashion, wearing a norfolk jacket and
knicker breeches. The other was a
stout, elderly gentleman who wore a
frock coat and was Enthusiastically a
Frenchman. By his manner, which was
not unkindly, he seemed to be some one
of consequence. This conclusion, to a
stranger, would have been further fos-
tered by the way the attendants waited
upon him. But Private Townley was
hungry, and as he considered, properly
enough, that mounted policeman, as
long as he behaved himself, was just as
good as any other body he sat down
opposite the F'renchman of consequence
aforesaid and politely requested the
English looking gentleman to pass him
