Is not alone to have to wrostlo with the

be presented in no meager manner if the
women have their way. The half hour
given the two sides of the argument by
the Republican committee in st. Louis is
but a fraction Of what they will ask here.

"They must also listen to appeals to

be done in the matter of the abrogation OF

gard such innovations as this and such as
the frequent consultation With tho ST.

proceedings will only encourage the inde
pendent movement which is soon to fol
low them If they are coupled with free
coinage declaration in the platoon. -
Asked II the gold men would bolt the
convention m case OF a positive pro
nouncenent for free silver, Mr.. Eckels
expressed the opinion that there would be
no open bolt "But," he said, "there
would be a detection at the polls, which II
would be impossible to prevent. The rank
and file of the party cannot be made to
stand up for the party name If the party
convention insists upon overturning all
Democratic preoedents.
Mr.. Eckels thought the gold mon would
hold out for declaration for the gold
standard. He did not see how a question
such as the financial question oould be
compromised.
