OF him In New York. Mr.. william Dech.
the father of PoDulism in Nebraska. and
heretofore one of the strongest men in the
party. yesterday made public an Interview
TO the Call. to the effect hat he would
not support Bryan. The Call of this city
expresses the sentiment OF the people Of
Nebraska editorialiy: The formality Of
notifying Mr.. Bryan that he was nom
mated at Chicago is ended. The most that
can be made of the event has been done.
In the attempt 10 make a great mass
meeting Of IL and give the candidate an
opportunity to display his oratorical pow
ers on the seaboard, at the most populous
center Of American intelligence, and on the
very threshold OF Tammany Hall. the free
silver Democrat has made a failure. Mr..
Bryan's appeals for free silver and every
other rotten plank in the Democratic plat
form fell on the ears of n multitude which.
II IS well known. has not as yet accepted
him as the standard bearer of the Demo-
cratic party. Mingled Kisses. calls and
confusion greeted his words of acceptance
of what would have been n great honor
to any one representing the best sentiment
of the Democratic party. Mr. Bryan de-
clares that debtors have the right TO
choose the coin I'm which payment shall
be made. whether IL is equal 10 what they
borrowed or not. No honorable citizen, or
candidate. or patriot. or friend OF the COM
mon people will ever advocate any such
principle or policy. 1t is the rank teaching
of a ~demagogue. who will sacrifice private
Nation to satisfy his greed for Office. In
his Madison-square effort Mr.. Bryan
reached the climax of his public career.
His metcoric ascension Will have an ig-
noble descent, as he deserves for his de-
sertion of every landmark. tradition and
experience and revered by the American
DeODle.'

ANDERSON, Ind, Aug. 15.-The Demo-
Gratis of Madison county nominated their
ticket to-day and tonight there is
general rejoicing among Republicans over
the result. The nominations were domi-
mated by the Populist wing Of the party and
three of the Populist candidates were in
dorsed. The convention was noticeable
for the absence of the time-honored lead
ers of the party that carried every election
in Madison county for forty years till the
last election. W. S. Diven, judge Of the
Superior Court, was turned down for re-
nomination by Judge Ellison, of the Circuit
Court, the latter throwing his support TO
Thomas Bagot, who has been here but lit
tie over a year. Ex-Judge Z. b. Goody-

feeling expressed already and many Demo-
Gratis are planning to defeat to-days nomi-

publican rally of the present campaign in
Richmond was held this evening and the
demonstration surpassed the most SAN

management in charge. The speakers
were John L. Grifiths. OF indianapolis. and
Judge NJ. E. Forkner, OF New Castle. The
assembly was at South Tenth-street Park
in the heart of the city. The parade
marched through the principal streets.
Scores of railroad men, chiefly Pennsyl-
vania employees, were in line. They
marched two abreast. each carrying a lam
tern. The crowd at the park was immense.
A large glee club sang campaign songs,
after which George p. Early introduced
Judge Forkner. He confined himself al
most exclusively to the money question
and made many telling points. But the
chief interest centered in the speech Of
