Democratic newspapers not afflicted
with the free silver lunacy are protest
ing that the Chicago crowd does not rep
resent the Democratic party. That old
time champion OF Democratic faith. the
Baltimore Sun. MAKES Its protest clear
and vigorous. 1t says that the platform
els suggestive OF the formation OF an en-
tircly new Democratic party. essentially
different from that with which the
ame Of Jefferson. jackson. Tildcn and
Cleveland have been associated" and 1t
points out that one OF the most striking
features of'thc platform Of 1896 rs Its
direct ontagonism OF the platform Of
1892. and its open reputation and CON
dsmnat!on OF the administration elected
upon that platform"
The platform is denounced as Social
istic. populIstIc. Notwithstanding
but Democratic. ! Everything that the
Democracy has heretofore stood for,
battled for and represented Is diacrCdIt-
ed and rcpudIated. An entirely new
political profession OF faith Is drafted.

Tulmsn,. u,s,sn, Talk,

Tlllman In Ills speech In behalf Of the
craEy-1ullt platform adopted Mt Chicago
set the silver men Wild with delight
when he declared that South Carolina
In 1850 led the fight In the Democratic
party which disrupted It." This Is true
as n matter OF history. and 1t Gems at
this time to have a prophetic value.
South Carolina has not exactly led the
movement that Is 10 disrupt the Demo-
cratic party, but 1t has played the lead
ing part. The leaders OF the movement
nre the owners OF the silver mines In the
west. Those capitalists needed some-
body tn do their political work. They
thought the south u fruitful field for
missionary %cndcnvor, and Tillman's an
tics In his own state brought him out In
bold relief rs u good kind OF man 10
hitch up with.
Such n movement. In the nature OF
things, needed loud-mouthcd dcma-
goguc5 to push It forward, and the
pItchtork statesman Of South Carolina
Is Just that kind OF demaEogue. Pro-
Tossing to be a Democrat he has de-
nounccd almost everything that Is real
ly Democratic, and at Chicago he has
been one OF the real leaders OF the move
ment which Is driving out Of the Demo-
cratic party for the present every man
who does not endorse the c Tlllman-
AItgeld idea Of Democracy.
II might be thought that Tillman was
too bold when he spoke OF disruptlng the
Democratic party. The fact Is that he
and his crowd expect to lose a large
number OF Democrats and hope to more
than make up for the loss by drawing
Into their ranks men more easy TO mis-
lead. They know that In consequence OF
Democratic tariff policy Industrial con
dItionS are not good. and that men who
n few years ago were employed at good
wages are either idle now or working for
reduced wages. and they think that
these men can be made to believe that n
cheap dollar VIII Salve their hurts.
The disruption OF the Democratic par
ty Is nothing to Tillman and his crowd.
What they want IS control. and they do
not care how they get 1t. Theirs is n
dream OF power. and they are Wild
enough to forc3ec already Its realizl-
ton. II any proof were needed to show
that they care nothing for the true
Democrats Of the country. that proof
would be found in their shameful treat
ment Of the sound money men in the
Chicago convention.
That treatment n be understood
only on the suppositioE that it was de-
sired to drive out of the party all its
conservative Influences So ~ to make
the new programme more attractive to
the rInraT OF the country.

Who is Bryan? What does he repre-
sent? Why was he nominated?
He Is one OF the widest Of the wild
men who assembled at Chicago.
He represents the wild men who have
captured the Democratic organization.
He was nominated because he cap
tured the Wild men with q wild speech.
Bryan is as extreme as n MAJ who
sat In that convention OF extremists. II
the real Democratic party had been
holding a convention he would no more
have been thought OF for the presidency
than the man who tends door at the
white house.
Bryan fits the platform. and that Is
enough to say. His chance to be elected
is :he chance his platform has to be en-
dnrsed by the people.

Whether the Eound money men OF the
Democratic party could have prevented
all this is a question. Certainly they did
not try as intelligent and earnest men
should have tried.
Il must be said TO the credit OF Presl-
dent Cleveland and his cabinet that they
seemed to have lone what they could.
but they did not receive from the sound
money men OF theIr, party generally the
support they should have had. In short
the wild men were permitted to run
away with the organization in the
states, and so it was easy enough for
them to capture the national organlza-
tIon.
AS II was In West Virginia, so 1t vas
elsewhere. Another opportunity comes
now for the sound money men. II they
moan what they say. that they Intend to
stand for good business principles and
the honor Of the country. their last and
only chance Is to vote against the work
done at Chicago and to use their iniIu-
cnce~ theoretically on tho same business
line. To do anything less Is to help on
the work Gu: u at Chicago.

ONE HUNDRED HORSES HERE
Fair Race Program VIII be Submitted T.
day for EalI Meeting


The committee to make the race pro-
gram for the meeting Of the State Fair
Sep. % to q, inclusive, have been work
ing for several days to arrange a pro-
gram which would catch the best horses
in the west and believe they have sue
ceeded in perfecting it.
The executive board were to have met
yesterday afternoon TO pass upon the
report Of the committee but owing to
several members being out of town a
quorum could not be secured and a
meeting is called for today at p. m.
when the report will be acted upon. A
reporter for the Eagle called upon c. S..
Smith, secretary, but he thought it in
advisable to give the report of the COM
mittee to the public until it had been
acted upon by the executive board. He
is confident however, that the horsemen
will concede that it is the best program
ever offered in Southwestern Kansas
and will be satisfactory to all concerned
The management are working unceas-
ingly in pushing the preliminary work
and find the people of this section of the
state enthusiastic in their support of the
fair, and everything indicates that there
will be the largest and best fair this fall
ever given in this state.
There are nearly one hundred horses
on the grounds now and many of them
are very fast.
1t is well worth the time for a lover
of good horses to visit the grounds of
a morning and see them work out"

WICHITA MAN IN LUCK
f. a. Yonnt and His Two Sons Strike a
Rich Lead

T. A. Yount, formerly a baggage mas
ter at the Missouri Pacific depot, is a
Wichita man who has struck il exceed
ingly rich in Colorado, and is now coun-
ted as one of the monied men of Colo
RADIO.
He is interested in three paying mines
the Rufus G, Tenderfoot and The Blue.
The mines are located twenty-four miles
north Of Cripple Creek, and eight miles
from Divide, at a place now called Man
chester, but the postofice has not yet
been established and when it is the
name will be changed to Chester. Per-
sons wishing 10 write TO Mr.. Yount
should direct their letters 10 Divide, Col
for the present.
Last fall Mr.. Yount and his two sons,
Ross and John, located on their claims
and put in a severe winter. Finally a
company composed of Messrs. Hiner
and Gardner of Omaha and Steve Welsh
an expert miner, were persuaded to as
sist in developing the mines, and were
surprised to find an exact counterpart
Of the lead struck by Mr.. Stratton at
Cripple Creek.
The output so far has marked the
claims as very valuable and the new
company have refused tempting offers
for the first two but have disposed of
sufficient interest in The Blue to enable
them to develope their claims, which
are paying richly from the first.
They have also laid out a town and
already have seventy-five inhabitants.
They are only four miles from the rail-
road and have no trouble in delivering
their ore. The find in the three mines
has caused a sensation in mining circles
and Mr.. Yount expects to return to
Wichita in a few months a rich man.

THERE'S NO FALLING OFF
On the Contrary Gains Are Shown in Some
of the Wards.

City Assessor Caldwell has not COM
pleted the enumeration of the city yet,
but he has gone far enough to satisfy
him that there has been no falling off in
the population On the contrary some
decided gains have been made In the
Fifth ward there is a gain of nearly $50
and a similar gain in the Sixth ward.
The Second ward has decreased a trifle.
The First, Third, and Fourth wards are
still incomplete but an estimate has
been made which does not show any de-
crease. A fair estimate gives the city
about 200 more people than it had last
year There is one thing certain in the
mind of Assessor Caldwell and that is
that there Will be no decrease. The
population is now about Il 600 or little
