The populist vice. presidential candi-
date, Tom Watson, doesn't seem to
have been notified that he has been
nominated, for he continues to de-
nounce the democratic nominees
Bryan and Sewall. In referring to
Bryan's speech of acceptance Mr.. Wat
son, the populist, says:
"Just as Mr.. Sewall's presence on
the ticket prevented Mr. Bryan from
assailing national banks of issue and
the republican doctrine of protection,
so the same baneful influence pre-.
vented him from denouncing railroad
monopoly and eXtortion, Mr.. Sewall
being Il corporationist of lusty proper
tions himself. In fact, it seems the
mission of Mr.. Sewall in the campaign
to act as a contradiction to the Chicago

record Of the republican party as cor
rect; neither will they believe tho re-
cords of democracy. They have no
use for history or precedent-prefer-
ing to guess at things and. go it blind
as to the future. History doesn't seem
to be favorable, to democracy anyway,
and it's not surprising that democratic
followers prefer to forget that this
country has history-or that some
other countries have.

South Dakota populists are figuring
on fitting a mouth into Wind cave at
Hot Springs and putting it on the
stump.-Minneapolis Journal
But the wind of the cave would be
about as unreliable as some of the
stuff that we get from such orators,
for it blows both ways-sometimes in
and sometimes out-so that like popu-
list orators it would give us the same
thing over and over again.

Clate Tinan, of the Kimball Graphic,
doesn't like the idea of the democratic
organization in the state being killed
by degrees. He says:
ats pretty tough to live in COM
monwealth where democrat can't
vote his state ticket if he wants to.
Maybe he wouldn't want to if he could:
its the disfranchisement, the slow kill
ing of his party's organization, that
grinds him."

WEAVER AGAINST DEMOCRACY

During the campaign of 1892 Gen.
Weaver had occasion to speak in rather
plain language concerning the demo-
cratic party-the same party that is
now trying to continue in control of
our country. Here is the way Gen.
Weaver talked:
II want to congratulate you, fellow
citizens, on the suppression of purely
democratic rebellion, gotten up by
democrats for the democratic purpose
of Observing this union. Now AND
FOREVER IT IS ESTABLISHED AS AN ETER-
NAL TRUTH THAT THE DEMOCRACY IN NO
PLACE NOR STATE CAN EVER BE TRUSTED
WITH GOVERNMENT"
II am astonished beyond measure
that party with record SO utterly
vile, wretched and wicked as the demo-
cratic party, should be so lost to all
shame and decency as to make an ap-
pearance before the loyal people of
Iowa. 1t should be trampling in the
wilderness of oblivion, and nevermore
return"
"What is the use of further arraign-
ing the defunct democracy, with all it's
hoary crimes, at the bar of public opin-
ion? We know that it's acts comprise
murder, treason, theft, arson, fraud,
perjury and all the crimes possible for
an organization to cOnniye at
sit would be a mercy to put its re-
cord million miles deep in the pit
that is mentioned in holy writ-and
may add that if large and distin-
guished assortmentof its alleged states
men were sent along it would only be
common justice"
''IHE SAME OLD GANG ARE AGAIN CON.
SPRING TO GET POSSESSION OF THE Gov
ERNMENT. Woe TO THEM!roR THE LOYAL.
HOSTS WILL CRUSH THEM, and crush
them forever and forever out of all
possible danger of such misfortune
to our common country. The NAME OF
DEMOCRACY is A NAME so FULL OF STENCIL
AND POISON THAT 1T SHOULD BE BLOTTED
FROM THE VOCABULARY OF CIVILIZED MAN
AND HANDED OVER TO THE BARBARIsM
THAT IT so FIFTY NOW, AND IN ALL THE
PAST, HAS REPRESENTED
| "But then, what could you expect
from the poor, blind, diseased, decrepit,
dismal, damned old democratic party
'* a' A PARTY WHICH THROUGH ITS
FINANCIAL LEGISLATION INFLICTED IN
TOLD WRONGS AND RoBBERIEs UPON THE
PEOPLE BY PERMITTING BANKS WITHOUT A
SOLID BASIS TO ISSUE a CIRCULATING NOTE.
4; *' The fact is, gentlemen, THE
DEMOCRACY NEVER HAS BEEN
ABLE TO COMPREHEND THE FL
NANCIAL QUESTION. Between it's
inherent dishonesty and apparent Sc
nility it makes petty but not un-
usual exhibition of its corporate, con-
solidated idiocy."
And today sits the same old party,
the same old mule" that it was in 90
the same party that is daily trying to
swallow our populistic friends, with
the aid of the populistic politicians.
Gen. Weaver must enjoy the mess he
is in. He gave the party that is again
trying to be elected such scoring in
the above clipping as we have never
before read.

A London dispatch says 10 brief; AL
though an effort will DO made to obtain

ties ut the opening of The November
term of the county OF London sessions
on Monday week, yet counsel for the
accused are already hunting for prece-
dents in the disposition Of sheptomania
cases by courts of high powerssall over
the country. In this county, the
criminal judiciary system Is patterned
very much after the old Methodist itin-
erary plan, the country being divided
into circuits through which the Judges
travel during the autumn, winter and
spring, and on re-assembling in Lon
don, the same judges form the Queens
Bench division of the high court Of
justice. Whatever decisions, there
fore, bearing on kleptomania may be
discovered, each one will represent the
rulings Of some particular Judge of the
division, and In The event of convic-
tion. the result of the research would
Indicate whether it would be safe TO
carry the case TO appeal.
There is a good deal Of comment
over the apparent anxiety Of Charles
Mathews, counsel for the defense, to
have the case tried at the Old Bailey
rather than at the Clerkenwell (or
London) sessions. The business of
this latter court is mainly confined to
minor cases, while conviction at the
Old Bailey usually means term OF
penal servitnde. The impression
largely prevails that Mr.. Castle will be
acquitted. Should his wife be proven
a victim Of kleptomania, she will be
adjudged insane and ordered confined
"during Her Majesty's pleasure.
This means dependence upon the good
graces Of the home secretary-those
same good graces that so far have been
refused to Mrs. Maybrick.

BLOOMINGTON, H., October 27.-
There was but little sleep last night for
VIM. j. Bryan, whose special car made
the trip to Alton in the hours border

up and died quickly in the distance as
the train shot through the darkness
past the little stations, where crowds
had gathered in the hope that the
train would stop. Carlinville was the
only place where the Bryanites we're
gratified. Mr.. Bryan was awakened
there at midnight and made little
speech from the car.
Those who waited until O'Clock
this morning at Lincoln for the arrival
of the train with the hope Of seeing the
candidate. at that unseemly hour,
were disappointed. He slept until 7
O'Clock, and shortly after that hour,
addressed 5000 people in the park
about the station at Lincoln.

men, made the morning air ring with
shouts as the candidate and party en-
tered the enclosure, under the escort of
cavalcade Of men and boys who wore
silvered hats, bearing the inscription,

Stevenson introduced Mr.. Bryan and
advocating his election, remarked:
"We have kept the faith; we have not

Some idea Of the enormous increase in
the traffic of the Mexican Central road
may be gainei from the knowledge that
within the last fourteen months that road

and yet the motive power is absolutely in

For this reason, the Mexican Central has
been compelled to lease five locomotives
from other standard guage roads in order
to keep their cars moving.
