w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cab

all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sl1illful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should hav the best, and with the
well-informed verywhere, Syrup Of
Figs stands mig st and is most largely
used and gives general satisfaction.

conference lasted an hour or more and a

the effort TO secure the Endorsement or
nomination Of Bryan by the populist con-
vention.
The headquarters OF the middle Of the

The middle of the road plpulsts are
opposed to fusion or the nomination of
any candidate identified with either OF the
old parties and as they express it, to any
trimming of the platform. The officers
claim three-fOurths Of the delegates are
now in the city and the claim is made that
when the convention assemble it VIII con-
tain majority of delegates VINO Will not
only oppose Bryan's nomination. but the
nomination of any other man who Is not a
populist The middle OF the road" people
are working independently of the national
committee and other ofncers OF the or
ganization. They claim TO be the rank and
file of the party and TO represent the true
principles of populism. There is a dispO-
stion on the part OF some OF the readers,
who are urging the noInination or Bryan,to
be-little the middle Of the road element,
but Il is obvious that even though their
strength be exaggerated, they VIII prove
an important factor when the struggle in
the convention Iof SupIcHlttc. neslns.
The Kansas delegation this afternoon
went on record informally regarding its
choice for President. Only % of the 50
delegates from the state were present,
and 2S of them were for Bryan and Sew
all, three for Bryan, but opposed TO Sew
all, and one in favor of independent NOM
ination with a division of electors. The
delegates who did not want Sewall for
Vice President named Tom Watson Of
Georgia as their choice for second place.
Senator PETER said he saw no better way
to unite the entire free silver vote OF
the country than to nominate Bryan.
Ex-Gov. Llewelyn and eX-Congressman
Harris are with the Kansas delegation.
While Mr.. Simpson believes Bryan will
be nominated or indorsed by the conven-
ton, he admits that the vote Will be
close and the result in doubt until the
roll Is called. THE delegates from the
west are not all solid for Bryan, as has
been claimed" said he 1.-The California
delegation came in this morning and 1
find that they are rampant middle-of-the-
road fellows who want to make an inde-
pendent ticket and insist that 1t shall be
done. But out our way every body who
is not a gold standard republican Us for
Bryan, and it does not make any differ
ence whether this convention indorses
him or not, the people are going to vote

sans OF Mr.. Bryan was continued to-day

Among the men mentioned as candidates

Omaha, former republican, and ex-
grand commander of the Grand Army of
the Republic. and Eugene V. Debs. the
railroad mems leader. The latter. how
ever, has declared that he will not accept
the nomination.
A bitter contest is looked for over the
numerous platforms suggested. Albert

is receiving the support Of many
of the populist leaders, the real
work of advancing his interests has been
entrusted to Senator Jones of Arkansas,
the chairman of the national democratic
committee, it must be said for Senator
Jones that he is engineering the Bryan
boom skillfully and it is none the less skill
full because the United States senator
chooses to remain quietly in the back
ground. He has his headquarters at the
Planters hotel, where he was receiving
all the morning certain of the more prom
inent populists who desire Mr.. Bryan's
nomination by their convention. The prop
osition which Senator Jones advances is
this: In return Tor pOpuliSt and silver
republican support one member of each
party will he placed on the democratic ma
tional executive committee. In states
where the populists greatly outnumber
the democrats the populiSts are to get the
nominations for congress and state Of
fcers In other states where the strength
of the democrats Is more uniform, a sat
iSfactOry arrangement VIII De made with
respect to the state and congressional
tickets, the purpose in each case being
to secure the election of free silver repre-
sentatives to the House The scheme
finds great favor with such of the popu-
lists as Senator Jones has consulted.
1t may be stated that Senator Jones in
sists strenuously that not only shall Mr
BRYAN be nominated, but Mr.. Sewall as
we'll At last nights conference he IN
sisted that these conditions should be
rieidlv adhered to, and he fatty refused
to entertain any proposition that looked
only TO the nomination of Mr.. Bryan and
the repudiation of the democratic nomi-
nee for the second place on the ticket
Senator Jones sent for Jerry Simpson
with other popular leaders, and explained
TO him something of the details of the
proposition he had to offer. Gov. Stone
of Missouri was present, also NJ. T. Pat
terson head of the contesting Colorado
deleqation for seats in the populist con-
vention Senator Jones said the important
thing was that the campaign should be
oondncted not only harmoniously but
unffedIv by all the silver forces and to
that end he pledged himself should the
Conventions In St. Louis this week en-
dorse or nominate Bryan or Sewall, to ap-
noint as members of the democratic ma
fional executive committee in charge Of
fhe campaign, a representative each of
the populsts and national silver parties.

st. Louis, Mo-, July 2O.--The week opens
with steady downpour Of rain, and
while this interferes somewhat with the
accomplishment of the preliminaries Of
the conventions the managers say It re-
joices them to see It now for it practi-
cally assures them good weather during
the convention. This morning the silver
ties, who have been keeping comparative
quiet so far, opened hepdquarters on the
ground floor of the Lihdell hotel, where
DR.. Mott, chairman OF the national com
mittee, and MIR. Keeney, general organ
izer, have established themselves. Dr..
Mott does not believe that the two con-
ventions will be consolidated. There viii
be two distinct and separate conventions" "
said the doctor, although / hope that
they will arrive at some concerted action"
At a meeting of the leaders of the silver
party 1t was decided to maintain the pres
ent organization, and formulate a plat
form on the same lines as the democratic
platform so that Mr. Bryan could accept
the nomination Of the national silver par
ty without becoming embarrassed. 1t was
settled apparently that the committee
would nominate, not indorse, Mr.. Bryan.
