democrats held meeting, over which
Gen. Bragg presided, and unanimously
passed a motion instrIcting b. w. Jones
of that state to present Gen. Bragg

Gen. Bragg himself is very complacent
over the matter and sits in his room re-.
criving all visitors who may come and
talk, not about himself or his candidacy,
but about the gold democratic movement.
Gen. Bragg said il was, of course, an
honor 10 be mentioned for president, ana
also an honor 10 he the nominee OF II
great movement such rs the gold demo
crafts were now pressing forward. lhe
Wisconsin delegation was instructed by
the convention to present Gen. Bragg $

there was not 50 much interest in the
Bragg candidacy Several delegations ar
rived whose members say they would he
satisfied with the Wisconsin candidate

At every village drought which the

Mr.. Bryan gave out his itinerary this

Shelby Junction. Here 200 laborerS
were gathered and Il hearty cheer Went
up as the train pulled in. There We're
loud cries for Il speech. but Mr.. Bryan
excused himself on the plea that he was

This would not satisfy the crowd. how

The chairman then specially welcomed
the delegates from the United States and
Canada and delivered an address, plead
ing for unity. Letters were read from
Archbishop Walsh and DR.. Thomas Ad-
dis Emmett of New York. The state
ment of the latter that the man "who
is unwilling to accept an invitation to the
peace convention is nc true Irishman"
was wildly applauded.
By this time every inch of the hall was
occupied and it was estimated that about
5000 people were present. The first res
olution in favor of unity was supported
by Mr.. Ryan of Toronto in an eloquent
speech, during which he declared that
the Canadians were absolutely independ-

After Mr.. Justin Mccarthy and others
had supported the motion, the Rev. Den

blessing of Archbishop Williams and de-
manded that the delegates unite in a
universal rally around the flag.

AS To THE PLATFORM.

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 1T Is
already apparent there will be a struggle
over the platform. The suggestion that
the platform be confined TO declaration
on the sound money issue is not kindly
received and there is no question but that
the platform will cover the whole situa-
ton thoroughly and make n vigorous re-
ply to the declaration cnunciatcd Mt Chi
cag0 The executive committee is in
possession of almost innumerable suggcs-
tons as TO the money plank. The ore
understood TO have been drawn by Sccrc-
tary Carlisle will be the one decided upon.
The tariff plank will probably not be so
radical as that adopted four years ago,
but will be- clear declaration for tariff
for revenue only.
