IN COOK COUNTY

The Cook-county democrats adopted
a platform which will please every
friend of silver. 1t declares for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
and gold without waiting for any
other nation. leaving this one declara-
ton the central idea in the conven-
tons work. There was no reference
to the presidential question, nor was a
word said in regard to another term
for Governor Altgeld.

of Chicago goldbugs, is Incorporate in
it's talk; 1t is composed of men who are
mad because they were outnumbered

county go the administrations way

tactics of of1icialism used in Michigan
could be repeated at Chicago.
A few days ago. the representatives
of this minority issued manifesto in
which they insisted that real dem
ocracy is for gold, that they proposed
to renounce the regular organizs ton
and act apart and that all members of
their faction should refuse to partici-
pate in the convention of the regulars.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Ex-S Senator
Henderson, of Nebraska, writing of the
situation in his own state, and in the
west generally, says:
Il have just returned from a trip
through the state on a political mis-
sion. This state (Nebraska) is now
locking better for the casting of it's
electoral vote for Mckinley. although
we will nave very hard fight, but 1
believe the chances are in our favor
The east, however, should fully appre-
ciste the fact that there is really but
little hope, unless conditions change,
that Mckinley will get a single cleo
toral vote in any of the states west of
the Missouri.
IF Bryan is to be defeated, it must
be by carrying every state east of the
river and north Of Virginia. Kentucky
and Missouri. 1 believe that McKin-
ley will be elected, and if I did not
would be in great distress of mind over
the future of the country

LONDON. Oct. 5.-Sir William Yer
non Harcourt, the leader of the oppo-
sition in the house of commons, to-
night attended an anti-sultan meeting
at Ebbvale, Monmouthshire.
A resolution was submitted and
adopted calling upon the government
to DO everything possible to protect
the Armenians.
In supporting the resolution, Sir
William said ne rejoiced at the anti
sultan outburst in England Expert
ence, he added, had proved that the
policy of Great Britain in defending
the integrity of Turkey and prevent
ing the intervention of Russia had
failed. Great Britain ought, in the flu
ture, to cooperate with Russia in the
east, treating her as an Asiatic neigh
Dor, and not as an enemy The first
step in this direction ought to be a
formal remuneration of the Cyprus con-
vention by which in return for support
of the Turks the latter ceded the island
of Cyprus to Great Britain.
Sir William declared that he was
profoundly convinced that it was ut
terly impossible for Great Britain to
effectually operate alone against
Turkey
Sir William concluded by saying that
he did not want Great Britain to enter
into formal treaties of alliance with
the other great powers, but did desire
that she should have an entente cor
dale with all of them.

ney-general, had withdrawn from the
ticket. was made in telegram from
Marion Williams member of the
Populist state plenary committee, to

to remain on the ticket to the end of
the campaign. L have no idea what
action viii be taken in the matter
1t has been known for the last two
weeks that Mr.. Walton was dissatis-
fed with the drift of political events.

THE coinage Of standard silver dol
lars is going on every dav at o,,r
mints, and during the last month If
amounted to $2.70o000. About the same
amount Will be coined during the pres-

Of the treasury 20 continue the p1ir
chase Of silver bullion and issue treas
ury notes in payment for it. and the
coinage is being made from the bullion
belonging to the government purchased
before the repeal OF that clause.
The silver dollars coined, other than

deemed IN silver or retired.

1t is addressed to Chairman Butler,
and is vigorous. incisive document.
Mr.. Watson viii revise the letter and
make it public Wednesday.
Mr.. Watson's letter is principally de-
voted to a demonstration along the
line that the Populist candidate for

al who favor Bryan's election. Mr..
Watson received the following letter
yesterday in the noon mail:
Los Angeles, Cal, Sept. 2S, 1896
Mr.. Watson-We see by the morn
ing papers that you have received our
warning, and we repeat that if you do
not resign the nomination by the 18th
of October, two of US will be selected
to start on your trail the next day and
take the first opportunity to remove
your carcass from the face of the
earth.
.Our matchless statesman, Bryan.
can win hands down with you out OF
the way; but we have read extracts
from some of your vile speeches in
congress against him. and would
rather vote for Palmer than give such
disreputable man as you are a
chance 20 become president of our
glorious country. This will be your
last warning.

Democrats.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 5.-Ex-Presi-
dent Benjamin Harrison addressed
about 5000 people here tonight at the
Auditorium building on the exposition
grounds OF the number named, about
half were colored people. The distin-
guished speaker was met at Hanover
Junction by a committee of well-known
Republicans and on his arrival here was
driven to the Jefferson hotel After
dinner the ex-president was driven to
the auditorium.
General Harrison was cordially re
ceived by the audience.
Judge Lewis, who presided over the
meeting, presented the speaker of tae
occasion. There were in the stand u
number Of leading Republicans and
Sound money Democrats, and there
were many Bryan men in the audience
About 8 o'clock the electric lights
in the hall suddenly went our as they
did when Mr.. Bryan spoke in the same
place recently. For about five minutes
the building was in total darkness.
During this tima Mr.. Harrison remarked
that the Republican party
DID NOT NEED AS MUCH LIGHT
as their opponents The lights were
turned on soon a1CerWard. MI ddIIl-
son then spoke as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen: I have,
prior to my return to my home in the
west, been requested by some Virginia
friendsI to speak to you for little
while upon some of the great issues
that are now agiSating in an extraor-
binary way all the people Of all sec
lions of This great country. Virginia
is not the nemy's country to me. 1t is
my ancestral home, and It's citizens are
my fellow citizens.
There was a time when the north
and south were arrayed against each
other That time is, to US, now only
q. memory; we are again one united,
loyal people. If it should ever be the
sad fate of this country TO be again
involved in war; if any foreign power
tramples upon that flag or invades our
shores Indiana and Virginia will charge
together against the enemy. and than
what shall stay that onslaught?
The memory of Gettysburg and APP
pomattoK will make it impossible for q
regiment of either state to stop outside
OF the breas.works OF the enemy"
The speaker then said that they were
there as citizens of a union established
by our forefathers, and were there to
claim for themselves those rights which
were left TO the states when the fed
eral constitution was formed.

Withdraws in Order to Help Defeat
Mckinley

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct 5-Major Will
lam Walton, candidate for state attor-
ney-general on the Populist ticket,
Withdrew today. In his card he says
the Chicago platform in it's financial
and other important plans is purely
Populist, and he urges all Populists to
stand by it and prevent the electoral
vote of Texas going to Mckinley. The
free silver Democrats are jubilant, but
Marion Williams, editor OF prominent
Populist paper, and other leading Pop
ulists say Walton's withdrawal will in
no way affect the campaign. DR.. e. P.
Wilmot, chairman of the Republican
executive committee of the district,
said he thought it would have no seri-
Gus influence one way or the other. 1t
