day for the purpose of placing Bryan

was called off by a telegram received by
John F. Willis, the National Lecturer

for an electoral ticket to be placed on

get control Of the convention, and the
petition plan was adopted to make sure
of separate electors. Only 800 names
are needed under the State law to get
the ticket on the official ballot. but it
is intended to get 4 900 or 5000 sigma

double purpose will be served by put

Does Not Believe i'm Free Silver, But

DALTON (Ga), Sept. 19-Hoke
Smith, ex-Secretary of the Interior,
spoke here to-day under the auspices of
the State Democratic Executive Com
mittee to one of the largest audiences of
the campaign. Smith referred to his
former visit to Dalton two years ago,
when he urged that the Democratic ma
tional platform should not approve the
free coinage of silver. He said his
views upon the financial question re-
manned unchanged, and he regretted he
could not indorse this part of the plat
form. He urged, however, those who,
like himself, did not approve this plank
should still remain loyal to the regular
nominees. He claimed that long after
the financial question is settled the
Democratic party will be advocating
principles dear to the interests of the
masses. Those who have taken part in

to the Chicago convention he felt were
practically pledged, as he was actually
pledged, to vote for the nominees.

probable the raiders will cross. Ever
since the attack on the NogaleS Gus
tom House Mexican troops have been
held in readiness for instant service
whenever they might be needed, ana
there is little doubt that they could
easily repel the invaders without as
sistance from the United States. The
only trouble is that the raiders might
succeed in getting across the border and
doing considerable damage before they
could be overtaken and reduced to sub
lection. Those gathering in Texas, while
made up largely of desperate, lawless
men, are still without discipline or or
ganization, and without a recognized
leader.
