The Lightning and Tillman.
1t is more difficult to say who will be
the populist standard bearer than it is
to predict the republican or democratic
nominee, and the latter are problems too
hard for most people to colve. Many
say that the presidential lightning will
surely hit Ben Tillman Of South Caro-
lima, that he is the man of the hour and
that he will sweep the decks on the first
ballot.
Tillman's friends assert that his most
formidable opponent for nomination hon
ors--General Weayer-is body and soul
for the South Carolina statesman. Till
NANTES claim that their man will poll
the solid and united votes of the popu-
lists and the free silverites, but the pop
ulists who favor other candidates are al
ready preparing to down him by saying
that he is a democrat at heart and is only
half a populist at best.
Senator James II. Kyle of South Dako-
ia has a strong following among the
western populists. He is an Ohio man by
birth and was a clergyman before he en-
tered the political arena While it is
generally admitted that Tillman has the
strength of the southern and eastern
populists at his back the fact that he Is

Plenty of PopuIiSts After the

TlLLMAN IN THE LEAD
The Convention in ST. Louis Promises to Be
Red Hot Afair-The Leading
Candidates.

If the populists are to be believed
populist president will live in the White
House after March 4 of next year, and
the country viii be run on lines radl
cally different from the existing ones.
Such astute men as Dave Hill of New
York, Matt>Quay of Pennsylvania. Tom
Reed of Maine might be inclined to
laugh at the claims Of the populists, but
a couple of years ago any one would have
been laughed at who asserted that the
populists would soon hold the balance of
power in the United States senate.
A populist president may not be elected
next November, but the populists are
hustling, and their convention al st.
&4ouis on July % next, if not as large as
the conventions of the democratic or re-

not liked very much in the west will act
strongly against him.
What Is known as the conservative ell
ement In the party regard Tillman as
too much of a sky rocket, and intend to
pin their faith to man with fewer rev.
dictionary fads. This element has al
ready settled upon Gov. Silas w. Hol-
comb of Nebraska and are booming him
judiciously. Holcomb they regard as
safe man, a man who will stick to the
religion of the party through thick and
thin, but who will not allow personal am
>bitions or private antagonisms to carry
him into unseemly ways.

JEwBLED aIRDLEs IN VOGUE.
The Craze for Metal Belts Brings Them
Back Into Fashion.

The Craze for Metal Belts Brings Them
Back Into Fashion.
With the craze for metal belts comes in
again that most artistic waist garniture,
the jeweled girdle 1t is narrow, of
course-all artistic decorations are-and
it is more often in gold than in silver, as
the latter has a tendency to increase the
size of the waist. In almost every in
stance variety of different jewels,
whether real or imitation, are used, the
idea being to produce by this array of
color and glitter the oriental effect just
now so highly priced. The Marguerite
girdle is a dainty belt, copying, as the
name indicates, the field daisy, not only
in size and shape, but accuracy in color.
The green and white effect is naturally
wrought out in enamels, and often the
heart of the daisy. or of all the daisies,
is brilliant solitaire. The price of such
a fine bit of goldsmiths work will tend
to keep the style from becoming what is
called itoo common"

An Army of Delegates.
The delegates who will go to st. Louis
to select a standard bearer for the party
will be 1888 in number. They are not
chosen In the same plan followed by the
democratic and republican parties, but
according to the populist voting strength
in the various states. North Carolina,
for instance, will have ninety-five dele
gates, while New York will have only
forty-four and Pennsylvania forty-two.
Maine is given but nine delegates, while
Kansas has eighty-two.
