rived from unrestricted commerce with
the world, the tariff plank will simply
reaffirm in a few words the party'S
fealty to the doctrine of tariff for reve-
nue. only. A third plank will commit
the democratic party to the principle
of raising public revenue by taxing in
comes 1t will advocate the adoption
of a constitutional amendment au-
thorizing congress to raise money in
that way. The platform will declare
in favor of an economical administra-
ton of the federal government and
perhaps also against the immigration
of paupers and illiterates- Many of
the leaders are strongly in favor of a
single declaration for free silver and
the practical ignoring of all other
questions.
VIII The Gold Men Bolt?
CHICAGO, July. 6-The gold dele
gates gathered rather slowly Sunday
evening for their second meeting.
Neither Senator Hill nor Gov. Flower
attended the meeting, the former Civ
ing as a reason that he was too busy
with other affairs. Before the session,
Mr.. Whitney said: THE meeting is
simply to formulate plans. We are not
going to arrange any individual
u,
that the meeting was to get the sense
of the delegates on the question of
boiling the convention, several dele
gates having urged the course early in
the day. There was less talk yester-
day of'a bolt by the gold men, and it
was openly discouraged by Senator
Hill, Mr.. Whitney and others Still it
is plain that great many of the gold
men will refuse to support silver can
didate. and some quietly canvassed the
advisab ility of placing a gold ticket
and gold candidate in the field.
The Temporary Chairman.
CHICAGO, July GA secret meeting
OF leading silver men was held at the
Sherman house yesterday. The con-
ference was devoted exclusively to a
canvass Of the situation with reference
to the selection of temporary presid

Michigan and Minnesota, so far as it's
voice will be heard in the conven-
ton this week, stands solid for
free coinage of silver at sixteen to one
against the equally solid gold stand
ard democracy of the east At the
threshold of the convention the gold
standard democrats are defeated two
to one. The silver democracy is in the
saddle, and will ride rough shod over
precedent and tradition, if necessary,
TO accomplish their purpose. This is
che set determination Of the leaders.
Silver's Great showing.
CHICAGO, July s6.-The silver men
place their strength in the convention
now at COS votes out of total of 92O,
leaving 312 votes to the gold men.
They also claim four of the six dele
gates from Delaware, five of the six
from the District of Colum bia, four of
s9hc eight from Florida. eight of the 10
'fcom Maine. one of the 16 from Mary
Hand and six of the Is from Minnesota.
This is a few votes below the two
F&tlirds necessary to nominate, but it is
confidently believed that these will be
secured. The silver men also believe
that an investigation of the contests
~frona Michigan and South Dakota will
result in adding these two delegations
to their side of the column.
Bland Men Caucus.
CHICAGO, July Ga caucus of the
Bland men was held at the Sherman
house yesterday, and it was the most
amportant gathering that has been
held since the delegates began to ar
rive. The States which were repre-
scented were: Colorado, votes; Arkan-
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-07-09

take 622 2-3 votes to nominate. The
Bland men, however, expect upon the
first ballot in addition to the states
named: Alabama. with % votes; Flor
ida, votes; Louisiana, 16 votes; North
Carolina, % votes: South Carolina. Is
votes, and Tennessee, "a votes On
the second ballot they claim Ken
lucky. Ohio. Michigan. Georgia
and Mississippi will go for the
Missouri man. There are also
scattering Bland votes in other states
which will be for him from the start
unless the delegations adopt the unit
rule.
The feature of the day has been the
seeming utter collapse of the Teller
boom. The talk of the existence of
the Senatorial cabal plotting to secure
Teller's nomination has aroused among
many of the incoming delegates a
feeling of the most bitter and passion
ate resen tment, and the cry is heard
everywhere that the nominee must be
a democrat.
Platform VIII Be Short.
CHICAGO, July 6.-The platform will
be short. 1t will contain less than 500
or 600 words. It will consist of only

Illinois and the Two-Thirds Rule.


Illinois and the TwQ-Thirds Rule.
CHICAGO, July 6.-The Illinois dele
cation to the convention voted unani-
mously yesterday to support in con-
vention a resolution for the abroga-
ton of the rule requiring presidential
candidates to receive the votes of two
thirds of the convention to insure a
nomination. The proposition was sup
ported in an earnest speech by Gov.
Altgeld. The governor declared that
the two thirds rule had been a curse to
the democratic party ever since it came
into existence. He declared also that
the abrogation of the rule at this time
was the key to the situation. With
the rule in existence the party might
be at the mercy of the gold forces.
Vest VIII Name Bland.
CHICAGO, July 6.-The supporters OF
Bland have decided. upon a plan of
campaign. Every effort will be made
to capture the delegates when the va.
rious states arrive, and to aid in that
work it was determined to have head
quarters at the Palmer, as well as at
the Auditorium, where the Missouri
delegation will be housed. The name
of Bland will be presented in the con-
vention by Senator George 6. Vest.
He will be for Bland and sixteen to
one silver. Gov. Stone will be the
mem Der from Missouri on the platform
committee, and Senator Cockren will
be presented by his state as mem Der
of the committee on credentials.
Martins Plan for Fusion.
CHICAGO, July 6.-Senator Martin
says Bland electors will carry Kansas.
His scheme is to have the populists and
democrats nominate the same electors,
and in this way form a combina,
ton to run the state. He insists
that even in the event Teller is
nominated the Kansas populists
will not support him. They WILL. in
his judgment. throw Teller aside and
vote for Bland.
The PopuIists' UItimatum.
CHICAGO, July 6.-The populists have
delivered their ultimatum to the dem.
ocrats that they will accept neither
Bland nor Boies, nor any other demo,
crat nominated. This has not been
communicated in any formal way, but
by declarations of populist national
committeeman made to democratic
leaders. DIR. Taylor. the populist com,
mitteeman from Illinois, conveyed the
information to Gov. Altgeld.

road in naming candidate for presi..
