Mr. Bryan formally accepts the Popu-
list nomi nation, saying that he is able to
do SO without departing from the Chica-
go platform. Apparently he considers
the two plato rms similar in all import
ant PARTICULARS. and in those he is about
right. The truth is the Chicago platform
was stolen from the Populists, and so
was the Chicago nominee for that mat
ter. MI. Bryan was always good deal
more of q Populist than Democrat. If
Mr. Bryan wants to continue to be re-
carried the friend Of the people he must
repndiate the circular calling upon the
silver mine owners to contribute to his
campaign fund. because his election will
mean a profit to them of "a cents an

AN AMAZING CONCEPTION.
New York Post.)


Now. in all seriousness ii 1t not one Of
the most amazing conceptions that ever
entered the human brain that the money
in his pocket is too good for him? That
1t buys too much. Would not any wife
be justified in considering her husband
tipsy Ii he should tell her that the mon
ey applied to the support OF the family
was bringing too muchsfuel, clothing and
provisions; that something must be done
by Congress to reduce these quantities
one-half, and that the country will be
ruined if things 90 on this way much
longer. Yet this is the chief contention
of the Organizes. The whole silver
movement ia bottomed on the idea that
cheapness is a damage to us and that we
should tie better off if we had to pay
more money for everything we buy.
Every ailverite on the stump, from Mr..
Bryan down or up, sings the same tune,
harps on the same string: "Prices are
down, prices are declining, We shall be
ruined"

Mr.. Bryan has in some way got a
great rep utation for sincerity. 1t is the
fashion even among many Of his oppo-
nents tosregard him as sincere, though
misguided. But he has recently signed
his name to a statement which IL calcu
latsd to shake the confidence of his
warmest admirers in his sincerity. In
a signsd statement which he put out In
Cincinnati he declared: '"I have no
doubt of my election" A man who be-
lisvss that staten is sincere can only
do go by believinl 1t Mr.. Bryan is men
tails az blind as bat. Every state
which has held an election since he be-
came a candidate has shown that the
tide was setting strongly against him.
Even in Arkansas there was a falling off
In the Democratic vote and a large in
crease In the Republican, which clearly
indicated that even in the hide bound
Democratic states the free silver issue
had worked to the disadvantage of the
Democratic party. No candidate for the
Presidency eever saw such powerful
elements arrayed against him as are ar-
Iayed against Mr.. Bryan. 1t is safe to
sry that great majority of the men of
character in the country, of the men of
learning, of the mon of basiness OF the
men of thought and industry are against
him. The majority of the men of In
f1uenosrin tile Democratic party even are
opposed to him, not passively, but openly
and actively. Hardly prominent
Northern Democratic leader is on the
stump FOR him. and among the names of
the IN anaRers Of his campaign there ia
hardly one that was known year ago.
No candidate for the Presidency was
ever elected with halt the odds against
him that are against Mr.. Bryan. Yet
In spite these facts, in spite of the fact
that the elections that have already taken
place have shown that the current of
popular opinion was setting strongly
against him Mr. Bryan declares that he
has no doubt Of his election. If he had
said only that he was confident. or that
he expected to be elected, or that he con-
sidered the chances In his favor, there
would then have been good reason for
either doubling bis sincerity or question
