Inlman of South Carolina was in Wall
street today, armed with his pltchfork,
looking for goldbugs. AT least. he had
his one good eye and his Southern
drawl with him, and he saw and heard
good many things that he will tell
about when he makes his next black

! can be right smart about It, 1t will

Speaking OF the recent bond deal, TIL

any rich man who has money to Invest
for going into these big deals. OF
course. l don't say that any one was
bought, but there was good deal

was mighty unsavory. But you can't

today, and when asked how he would
like Mayor Strong's job In the city

than that. and l may land II some
day" Speaking further OF REFORM OF
Roosevelt and his excise enforcement,
Tillman said II have heard GOOD

A SILVER PLANK
WIN be Demanded By Silver Republic
ans Mt St. Louis


ans at St. Louis.
Washington, Feb. %. -senator Carter.
the Republican silver leader and chair
man OF the Republican national exc
cutiva committee. was asked what
would be done by the silver men at
the ST. Louis Convention.
Eve shall stick for silver plank"
was his reply. and We shall demand
a pledge from the Republican nominee
that he will favor free coinage. but thai
IL only one item in long list that must
be considered"
win the silver men bolt the party IL
they cannot get a candidate and u
platform to suit them?'
The chairman OF the Republican Or
gonization smiled aud said;
THE other fellows VIII do II II there
is any boiling done. We believe ma
jority of the Republicans OF this coun-
try are In favor OF hlmetnllism, and
that they will stand with us at the
convention
Senator Cullom of Illinois. who has n
hankerinE for the presidential nominal
tion, was interrogated on the same sub
ject and said:
while l dlsapprove In large meas
urc OF what Senator Carter said. | feel
that l cannot deny that he reflects the
sentiments OF n very considerable por-
ton OF the Republican party, and that
he and those who believe with him are
entitled to our attention.
II am reconcilod TO the speech, how
ever" continued Mr.. Cullom, sin the
hope that its delivery so far In i'd
vance of our national convention will
awaken members OF the party from all
sections to he vital importance OF get
ting nearer together. 30 that we may
avoid trouble when the convention
meets. II looks as II we had to have
n fight In our ranks, and we better have
II now than later on. We better find
out as soon as possible the sentiments
OF the public and come to an under
standing, rather than beat our heads
together while we are nominating cam
didates. There are strong men and good
mon on both sides. There are many
Republicans who are very sincere and
earnest in support of free coinage, al-
though perhaps majority OF the lead
ers OF the party are opposed to H. Both
must make concessions and ind some
common ground ON which they can
unite, or the party will not be success
full at the next election.
"There IL a good deal OF consolation,
however, added the senator, 'in the
fact the Democrats are more divided
than we are"
