A PRETTY PICKLE.

They Are Betwtxt the Devil and the Deep
Blue Sea.
What a pretty pickle the democrats
will find themselves in at Chicago 1t
matters little which faction is in con-
troll of the convention. Neither will
have more than a small majority. Ger
tainly neither the gold men nor the
silver men will have two-thirds of the
whole number of delegates. The plat
form will be adopted by majority.
But how about the nomination for
president? Under the presidents which
have existed since 1902 nominations in
a democratic national convention are
made by a two-thirds vote. No one
has seriously proposed to abrogate
that rule. There is some debate as
to whether it can be abrogated by
a mere majority vote, and if it were
done the act would be sure to give the
defeated faction great soreness and an
additional pretext for boiling. But il
the silver men have four-ninths of the
convention and the gold men only five
ninths how is a nomination by two
thirds to be effected? Or if it should
turn out that the gold men are in {
minority and have only 400 votes te
500 for the other side, how is a nomina
ton to be reached requiring 600 and
odd votes? Silver men cannot be ex
pected to vote for gold candidate
nor can gold men be expected to hell
place a free coinage candidate on thu
ticket. Evidently there is going to b
a high old time at Chicago, and. NJ
