NO REAL CONFUSION.

CHICAGO, July 26.-To W. r. Hearst,
New York Journal: What appears to be
an irreconciIable confusion resulting from
the failure of the ST. Louis Convention to
nominate Seweli is not such, and harmo>
ny will soon be brought about.
The fact that Bryan's name is to be on
both tickets will bring about fusion of
electors in each State that Will draw out
the Mll strength of both the Democratic
and Peoples party votes. To illustrate it,:
Illinois has twenty~four electors. The
Democrs tic Stat Convention should name
say, y,twenty electors, and the Peoples par
ty State Convention four electors. In
many States, under the Australian ballot
system, the same name of candidate or
elector cannot go ON two or more tickets.
This is obviated. by putting the names of
the twenty Democratic electors and four
Peoples party electors all on the Demo-
cratic ticket, In States where the Peo-
Pies party has more votes than the Dem
ocratic party, and there are some ten or
twelve of these, the above plan will be
reserved by putting the Democratic cleo
tors on the Peoples party ticket.
In the case of Illinois, as above cited,

world wanted and it was ia great de-
mand. He had purpose and followed it.
Napolien was master and the world
needed his services. Every man can be
q master of something. It takes talent,
pluck, energy and ambition to go to the
top. Every man has talent unless he be
insane; if be has not pluck, energy and
ambition he can make them. If anything
is worth doing at all, it is worth doing
well. If life is worth living 1t is worth
living to the fullest extent. Let every
boy master some one thing and all will
be well

WHERE THE CAMPAIGN WILL OPEN.

There is beautiful picnic ground near
Mountain Island and there is where the
campaign will open the 4th of August.
Hon. Cyrus B. Watson will be there in
good trim, He will then speak to an i'm
mense crowd of Democrats if they will do
their duty and attend. Mecklenburg will
send great crowd. Mr.. Robert L. Aber
nethy is showing the arrangements. He
knows how to make a picnic occasion o
success, and if work will bring about a
grand day, Mr.. Abernethy will give the
crowd grand day-for he is an untiring
worker. Every man who can should at
tend from this county. Allarrangements
should be perfected as soon as possible.

The Governor of South Carolina and Cir
cult Judge Scrap.

cult Juug6 OCFdp.
Columbia, s. C., Dispatch, 9th.
For the past six years candidates TOR
public offices in South Carolina have
been backguardIng each other on the
stump and have been time and again on
the very verge of getting together in
personal combat, but they have never
gotten up to the fighting point. The
people had come to believe that such a
thing as resenting an insult on the stump
was a dread of the past. But Judge
JOS ii. Earle broke the record to-day
when he jumped upon the stand at Flor
ence and struck Governor Evans on the
head with his fist, getting little blood
drawn from under his eye in the personal
row which followed. Gov. Evans fist
landing in his face 1t was an exciting
episode and most painful spectacle
the Governor of the State and Circuit
judge in public "scrap." The trouble
was caused by Evans alluding to Earle
as fee with his tail cut. The whole
court room was wild with excitement for
at least Is minutes. Friends crowded
around the two men after they had been
forcibly separated. A number of pistols
were drawn and held in the hands of
their owners, ready for use.

How the President is Elected.

Duluth News-Tribune. Rep.)
While the people elect President by
their votes, they do not vote direct for the
candidate. The work is done through an
electoral college. In other words, each
State puts up ticket of Presidential cleo
tors, and these cast the vote which finally
decides who shall be President and Vice-
President. This ticket Is made up so as
to give one elector for each United States
Senator and one for each Member of Con-
gress. The college, therefore, this year
will contain 447 electors. The successful
candidates for President and Vice-Presi-
dent will be required to secure not less
than 224

Have the free silver Republicans
forgotten that Bryan is free trader?
Are they going to ignore the over
powering question of protection in
this campaign and vote for Bryan
because he represents their ideas only
ON the coinage question: Bryan's
whole course while a member Of con
gress was in opposition to the prin-
ciples of protection, which the Re-
publican party believes is essential
to the prosperity OF the nation.
Here'is what he said during the de-
bate on the tariff bill: 'What
denounce is protective tariff, levied
purely and solely for the purpose of
protection. 1t is false economy and
the most vicious political principle
that has ever cursed this country"

TINE FOR WORK.

The candidates have been chosen
and the platforms been made for the
great campaign of 1896. The real
work will now begin. Already the
results in some portions of the coun-
try can be predicted. In the Eastern
ard Middle states the only question
is how large will McKinley's major
ity be. In the South Bryan and
Populism will triumph In the West
the battle is uncertain.
The fusion of the Democrats and
Populists will undoubtedly make the
Bryan ticket strong west of the
Rockies, and some of the rank silver
states will probably give it their
electoral votes.
In Oregon and Washington, con-
ceding all the claims of the Bryan
men, the contest will be a close one,
with the chances in favor of the Re-
publicans. AS the campaign pro-
crosses the cause of sound money
and protection will increase in
strength.
AT the same time there is urgent
need for active, we'll directed work.
The Republican schlsm in Oregon last
spring has interfered greatly with
the efficacy of the work done by the
state committee, and the situation
now is not as harmonious as earnest
Republicans would wish it. But
factional differences must be healed
selfish considerations must be put IN
the background and an unbroken
front shown to the enemy.
The address which was sent out a
few days ago by the executive COM
mittee of the state Republican leagues
should be given careful attention.
In every county the organization of
Republican clubs should be begun
without delay. In Wasco county
every precinct should have club
which will serve as a nucleus for
campaign work. The membership OF
The Dalles Mckinley Club should be
three or four times what it is, and
every member should feel respon
sibility in doing what he can to Sc
cure Republican success.
The present campaign is no ordi.
nary one. Whatever other people
may say, we believe that the success
of Bryan next November means
nothing less than national bank,
ruptcy. Free trade and free silver
will complete the ruin begun -four
yeas ago when the country slumped
to Democracy. Business men have
vital interest in the outcome, and
this should be cminentIy a busines:
mans campaign.
