MAKES A FEW REMARKS.
Senator German Stands by the Chicago
Platform and Nominees

Laurel, Md, Oct. GA big crowd,
numbering about $500, assembled here
tonight, drawn by the announcement
that Senator German would make his
initial speech of the campaign on this his
native heath. They were, however dis
appointed, as the Maryland Senator made
no attempt at a set speech, but confined
himself to II few appropiia late remarks and
then introduced the speakers Of the even
ing. In the course of his remarks Senator
German said that the time had now ar
rived when the rights of the masses of
the people should be protected against
the Entertainments of corporate greed
"We have" said he, Submitted our
views to court of last resort, court
elected by the people and controlled by
the people, the convention held at Chi
cago, and nothing is left for honest Dem
ocrats to do but bow to the will of the
people
owe have candidate of the people and
for the people and all Democrats will sup
port him because Of what he stands for
''He was also nominated by band of
honest Republicans led by the Senator
from Colorado, who believe in the United
States controlling her own financial
policy.
Our candidate is cordially supported
by the Populists, because he stands for
the rights of the people.
- Against us we have the great organi-
zatlon, the Republican party. CA voice:

comfort from men who have worn the
mask of Democracy, but these have
thrown aside the mask and gone over to
the common enemy. Let them go. Cap
plause.)
"They are now where they belong. 1
want to see if the American people have
SO degenerated that they can be bought,
if so, then our republican form of govern
ment is at an end"
Senator German concluded by saying
that nothing would prevent Maryland
from casting her vote for Bryan and
Sewall. Senator Stewart was then in
troduced and spoke at length on the
financial issue. He was followed by a.

FLORIDA ALL RIGHT.
The Democratic Ticket Elected by the
Same Old Majorities.


Jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 6-Rcports re-
ceived up to SIP. m. from half of the forty
five counties in the State indicate n large
vote, with the totals for the Democratic
State candidates about the same as In
lS92. Only two tickets were in the field
at that election, Democratic and Populist
and now there are three-Democratic
Republican and Populist. The Australian
ballot is in use for the first time and the
counting will be exceedingly slow and
very incomplete returns Mt the best will
be received tonight. Almost universal
satisfaction with the new system of vot-
ing is expressed. So far as heard from no
disturbance has occurred at any of the
polling places, except in one precinct in
jacksonville, where, in consequence of n
bitter factional contest, pistols were
drawn, but no blood was shed. The CON
stitutional amendment abolishing Octo-
Der elections is elected.
Midnight-Scatterin returns from all
parts of the State show Democratic ma
jorities in every county, but afford no
basis for an estimate of Bloxham's plu-
rality for governor. No comparison of
precincts can be made with 1862, mas
much rs in that year the Republicans had
no ticket in the field. In most of the pre-
cincts heard from Sheats, Democratic can
didate for superintendent of public in
structon, runs far behind Bloxham Be
cause of the Australian ballot system the
counting of votes in the larger districts
will take all night.

WATSON'o LETTER.
He Has Sent it to Mr.. Butler-May be
Made Public To-day.


Chicago, Oct. Ga special to the Tri-
bune from Atlanta, Ga, says:
Tom Watson addressed his letter of ac-
ceptance to Mr. Butler to-day. Mr.. Wat
son will revise the letter and make it
public, probably on Wednesday.
In his letter of acceptance the Populist
leader calls attention 10 the almost for
gotten fact that during the st. Louis con-
vention caucus of the "middle of the
road" delegates, representing twenty-one
States, was held. At this caucus the del
egates agreed to nominate Norton, of Illi-
nois for President end 3irkett, of Missis-
sippi, for Vice President.
That ticket, he continues, would have
made Bryan's defeat absolutely certain,
but when Watson telegraphed message
saying that he was willing to accept sec
ond place on the ticket with Bryan the
"middle of the road" men, believing that
the Democratic managers would support
the ticket in good faith, withdrew their
opposition to Bryan.
Mr. Watsons letter is principally de-
voted to demonstration that the Popu-
list candidate for Vice President deserves
the support of all who favor Bryan's cleo
ton.
