the ticket as his running mate is a
question yet somewhat mixed. There
is talk of Hobart of New Jersey,
Morton, Depew and Fassett of New
York, Dingley, Frye and Cleaves of
Maine, Hastings of Pennsylvania,
Evans of Tennessee, and others. But
the Vice Presidency is not as difficult

plank. With this knotty promblem

easy and the work of the convention

luton instructing the Ways and
Means Committee to inquire what
effect the difference of exchange be-
tween gold and silver standard coun-
tries has upon manufacturing indus
tries of the United States. Mr.. New
lands stated that the Chamber of
Commerce of San Francisco had
called the attention of the country
to the invasion of products from
Oriental countries, especially Japan.
California had already felt the ef-
feet of this competition. He recalled
the invasions of the Chinese and
their absorption of every industry
which they had attacked, which had
led to their exclusion. The Pacific
coast, he said, was now threatened
with the invasion of the products OF
the cheap labor of the Oriental
countries. He gave some informa'
ton regarding the cheap prices al

Their slanter Machine at Work Sick
PopuIist Member of Congress.
Columbia, IS. c. Register, Dem.l
The goldbug papers are merciless
in their treatment of Congressman
who have the courage of their con-
victions and vote for free silver. A
case in point is their treatment of
Howard, a noted Alabamian, the au-
thor of IF Christ Came to Congress"
and other vigorous financial writ
ings. The goldbug papers have in
dustriously circulated a story that
Howard did not vote for the free sill
yer bill because he was too drunk to
do 80. The story as first published
was that Howard was drunk, that
McLaurin assisted him home, call
ing on Talbert for help, which was
refused. The Washington Times
has since published this partial cor
rectiOn:
"The statement that Mr.. Talbert
declined to assist Mr.. McLaurin in
helping Mr.. Howard from the floor
is the result of mistaken identity. 1t
was Mr.. Latimer to whom the appeal
was made, and who refused. Mr..
Talbert says that he would refuse as
sistance to no one suffering from i'll
ness, but that it has been his rule
through life to act the good Samari-
tan, assist the unfortunate or dis
tressed stranger to a friendly inn,
and afford him every opportunity
for recovery. Mr.. McLaurin says
that while he has no particular ac.
quaintance with or friendship fol
Mr.. Howard, it is but just to state
that when the Alabamian arrived a,
the Capitol he was very ill. Mr.
McLaurin told him he should MOI
have come, but MIR. Howard ex
pressed his great desire to vote OF
the silver bill. Mr.. McLaurin ther
advised Mr.. Howard to take little
stimulant and lie down. The advic,
was taken, and soon thereafter tn,
report began to circulate that Mr.
Howard was intoxicated. Mr.. Nc
Laurin then awakened him ant
found him talking incOherently ant
apparently out of his head. He as
sisted in removing him to cab
sent him home and notified Mrs
Howard. Mr.. McLaurin says tina
he would perform similar act o
kindness for sick FIJI Islander
He does not believe Mr.. Howard wa
under the influence Of liquor
Howard was not drunk, but yer,
sick and is now dangerously i'll witt
pneumonia. The treatment the pres
gave him was brutal and positivel
inhuman. A little investigation
would have disclosed the truth as t
Howard's condition, had they dc
sired to publish the truth. Sue
savage warfare as that will defeat it
own object.
