Mr.. A. T. Taylor, assistant secretary OF
the National Silver party, has gone to
ST. Louis. He did not tell anybody where
ne was going or what was his errand,
but it is expected that Mr. Taylor has
gone for the purpose of sitting down very
hard on Mr.. NJ. Fairchilds Doud, the de-
posed national committeeman and State
chairman, who insists on not knowing when
he is deposed. If Mr.. Taylor's strength
is as great as his political zeal, there is
no doubt that Mr.. Doud will know when
he is dropped upon. The assistant secre-

Chairman Butler of the Populist ma
tional committee gives to The Times the
followin statement, VIII ieA he sends
simul taDeously to his North Carolina
paper, the Caucas sian, of Raleigh:
: During the last week n joint electoral
ticket has been arranged in West Virginia
by which the Populists get the two electors
ai-large and the Democrats the four dis
trict electors.
This arrangement makes West Virginia
certain, while before the Mckinley people
were claiming the State. So far, joint
electoral tickets have been made in twenty
eight States, in nearly every one of which
the Peoples party has secured larger
proportion of the electoral vote than the
strength of the respective parties would
seem to justify.
"The Republicans are greatly chagrined
over the arrangements recently made IN IN
diana and West virginia. Through their
cmissaries they did deverythingi in theirpower
TO prevent Joint electoral tickets from being
made in these two States, and now have
these same emissaries at work in these two
s .atcs, as well as in nearly every other
State, irving to breed dissensions and get
as many Democrats and Populistsaspossible
TO rebel against these joint electoral tickets
under one pretext or another In fact, JOINT
electoral tickets have been arranged In q
sufficient number of States to make the
defeat OF Mckinley and tue gold standard
certain, Mark Hanna realizes that his only
hone now is to try to prevent the people
from supporting these joint electoral tickets.
The patriotism of the voters can be de-
pentied upon, however. to defeat this last
hope and scheme to fasten the gold standard
upon the nation.
The outlook has greatly improved dur
ing the last ten days. The reaction has
set in all over the country against the
Republican Doodle campaign. The masses
of the voters have begun to realize that
the mouopolists and trusts are putting up
millions Of dollars to try to buy the
election in order that these trusts and
mouopolists can fatten upon the masses or
the people for another four years

COLORADO REPUBLICANS PAT.

However much a Republicans 10y
| atty to his party may waver, he must
! see a lesson in the vote of the Republi-
ado to support Mckinley and Hobart.
The federal patronage in Colorado is
not large. Denver is the one large
city with a few federal places. Col
orado has led the silver van 1t has
caused most of the silver agitation.
All parties there have declared in con-
ventions for the unlimited and indie
pendent coinage of silver. So great
was the sentiment for the white metal
that Senator Teller, with affecting re-
luctance and sorrow, severed his con-
nection with the Republican party be-
cause that party would not accept Col
orado's phraseology for the financial
plank in the platform. Colorado Is
thoroughly, completely, sincerely for
the free coinage of silver. The men
who in the state central committee
arose and declared they would support
Major Mckinley and the Republican
platform had not surrendered for one
instant their fidelity to the cause of
silver. To have done so would have
been political death in their state But
they did not and do not fear the Col
orado people on account of a stand for
Mckinley. Colorado's mountains are
full of silver. The beneficial effects
OF the free coinage of silver would
be the most immediate and the strong
est TO Colorado. Colorado is for the
free coinage of silver.
But Colorado and the Republicans Of
that state who have resolved to STAY
by Mckinley know that Democracy
cannot give this country free silver.
They now that with the house, senate
and president. Democracy and Popu-
hsm, either together or singly. would
