Thinks the Silverltes VIII Never Put al
Another Fight rs Strong.

Indianapolis, Nov. 6.-Hon. William D.
ocratic committee, has returned from
Chicago and opened up his law office.
Today Mr.. Bynum said to the Associated
Press that it was with great satisfaction
that he received the result of the election
and predicts that the silver question will
never again become a formidable issue.
Mr. Bynum said: THE advocates Of
free coinage will never again be able 10
be as strong as in the campaign
put up such fight. The issue VIII never
just now closed. The siiverites had been
diligently at work for about three years
and the conditions were exceedingly IA
vorable to the dissemination of their So
phistries."
The friends of sound money had been
avoiding direct contest and were at a
disadvantage when the question was
squarely presented. The triumph of
sound principles under the circumstances
was great victory"
AS to the future Of the gold standard
Democracy, Mr.. Bynum said:
"A reunion of all the forces Of the Dem
ocratic party can only take place upon
the lines of the Indianapolis platform.
Those that will not unite with our orga-
niZation on the principles therein pro-
mulgated will become identified with the
Populist party and go with that organi-
cation.
81 have been reported as having said
that we should probably abandon our
organization. Nothing is farther from
the truth. We are prepared to continue
the battle for sound money and shall do
SO whenever and wherever the question
is raised.
ut is impossible to say at present just
what course we shall pursue, but our or
ganization is perfect in all the states that
were represented in the national conven-
ton and we shall strengthen it in every
possible way.
1.-The effectiveness of our organization
ard the plans Of our machinery were dem
onstrated by the manner in which our
vote was placed where it counted.
I'm due time we shall have a meeting
of our committee to canvass the situa-
ton. However. this is not important, as
our plans will have 10 be formed as
events shape themselves
In speaking of the management of the
campaign, Mr.. Bynum spoke in the high
est terms of the assistance given him by
Mr.. Peal body of New York and Mr.. Fren-
Eel of Indianapolis. OF those not direct
ly connected with the organiza ton he &C
corded the greatest credit to Mr.. Hewitt
of New York and Mr.. oDn NJ. Dickinson
of Michigan. who came 10 his assistance
at critical moment and enabled the
committee TO make a vigorous campaign
in the close states which turned the tide.

THE LUCKY SEVEN.
EVERY THING POINTS TO
BRYAN.
An Interesting Article Concerning
the Democratic Nominee For
President and the
Figure Seven.

There is, perhaps, no superstition
so general throughout the civilized
world as those regarding the figure
10 being an unlucky number. How
1t originated, perhaps will never be
known, but It is generally attribu-
ted TO the presence of the Tweh @
Apostles and Christ at his last sun.
per. There is also n world. .wids
superstition regarding the figure :
being lucky number, and through
out all the railroads in this country
the engineers select the Z in pref.
erence to any other engine. 1t is
said that many of the railroads
omit numbering an engine 13, be.
cause 1t is difficult to get an engi-
neer to take charge of it.
When the Democratic nominee
for President, w. j. Bryan. arrived
at Chicago, several weeks before the
convention convened, no put up at
hotel the name OF which is spelled
with seven lettors---Clifton. The
clerk assigned him to Room No. z.
The committee in charge of the ar
rangements had just seven coupons
printed on the tickets of admission.
and there was just seven business
sessions Of the convention.
The Democratic Convention con
Vened in the seventh month of the
year--July--on the seventh day Of
the month, at city, the name of
which is spelled with just seven
letters-Chicago.
The name of the nominee, and,
by the way, there are just seven
letters in nominee, is spelled with
seven letters, William-seven let.
ters-W.J. Bryan--seven letters.
lie WAS nominated by II. II. Lewis,
seven letters. aud first State to vote
for him was Georgia, which is spell
ed with seven letters. MIR. Bryan's
home is city of seven letters, Lin
coin, and the State whose vote Sc
cured hlm the nomination was Mon
tana--seven letters. The Chairman
Of the N National Committee in charge
of the convention was Harrity, seven
letters, and the new Chairman is j.
K. Jones, seven letters. He wears
No.7 shoes and No. z hat, and there
were just seven States that followed
the standard of Nebraska for long
time before Illinois joined the pro.
cession.
The name of the club that Mrs.
Bryan organized is spelled with
seven letters-Sorosis-and he re-
ferred to just seven kinds of busi-
ness men in his great speech that
secured his nomination. There
were seven candidates for President
nominated before the convention,
and the sleeping car that carried
him to Chicago was the "Feronia !"
seven.
If there is anything in this belief
regarding tho figure z, WI Bryan,
who is in his 37th year, will be in
augurated President March 4, 1897.
The fact that Mckinley was nomi.
mated for President on the auni-
versary Of the battle Of Waterloo is
significant Of his defeat.
Seven is a sacred number, made
so by the Supreme Creator Of the
Universe, for in six days lie created
the heavens and the earth, and on
the seventh day He rested.
