TIE CONVENTION

Last week, at Chicago, the Dem
ocratic National Convention, adopt
ed it's platform and nominated the
following acknowledgements: For
president, Hon. w. j. Bryan, of
Nebraska; for vice president. Ar
thur Sewall, of Name.
The following is the financial
plank Of the platform:
"We are unalterabIy opposed to
the monometallism, which has lock =
ed fast the prosperity Of an indus-
trial people in the paralysis Of hard
times. Gold monometalllsm is IA
British policy, and its adoption has
brought other nations into financial
servltude to London It Is nat on
ly un American, but anti Am Prican,
ard il can be fastened on the United
States only by the sitting of that
spirit and lOye of liberty which pro-
claimed our political independence
in l776 and 1t won il in the war of
the Revolution"
"We demand the free and unlim-
TIED coinage of silver at the present
legal ratio of Is to l, without waits
ing tor the aid or consent Of any
other nation. We demand thai the
standard silver dollar shall be a
full legal tender. equally with gold,
for all debts, public and private,
and we favor such legislation a.
will prevent for tho future the dem
onetizltion of any kind of legal ten
der money by private contract"
We are candid enough 10 say,
that we do not like the platform,
nor have we gone wild with ems
thusiasm for the nominees. There
rs so much FOOD for SERIOUS reflec,
tion in the action of the convention
that we will refrain from further
comment until we shall have given
the subject more concentrated
study. If our dish of crow Is to be
seasoned with such continents as
the Governor of Illinois, Senators
Teller and TiIlman, the popuists,
republican siIverites and possibly
the prohiOitonists, it will prove the
most unsavory political mess we
have ever attempted to swallow.

the railroads in these states would be
unable to increase their rates to COM
pare with the increase In the cost of
maintenance, which the Bryanites
claim will ensue, and the resul; would
be the bankruptcy of every railroad 50
affected. The cost of railroading would
increase, while the revenue could not.
The employees, to say the least would
have no chance for q raise in wages.
Bryan admits that the cost of living
would increase. Where would this
leave the railroad men? Following the
election Of 1892 there was a railroad
panic which caused the laying off of
$4,000 railroaders and there has been a
depression ever since. Bryan's election

plea to the people Of Carbondale TO
stand by Mckinley, one of Americas
foremost statesmen. He stands as the
embodiment of all that means prosper
ity, peace and happiness among the
people. said Mr.. Zimmerman. He is the

fields letter of acceptance. paying par
ticular attention to the wild claim that
Blaine was free silverite and took oc-
casion to remark, in this connection,
that in these troublesome times one
blast from Blaine's trumpet would be
enough to silence 10000 Bryans.
The meeting concluded with three
rousing cheers for Mckinley, Connell

VOTE FOR ALEX. 7. CONNELL.
To the Voters of the Second Legislative
Dist RIM,

Fearful that in the excitement incl
cidental to a fiercely contested presi-
dental election, matters of local i'm
portance may be forgotten. we take
this means of calling your attention to
the necessity of re-electing Hon. Alex
II. Connell as representative from this
legislative district. Two years ago Mr..
Connell yielded to the pressure brought
to bear upon him by influential citizens
who were anxious to advance the in
terests of this district. and accepted
the nomination in the face of what
looked like hopeless contest.
BY his indefatigable efforts and per-
sonal popularity he was successful at
the polls. Although a new member he
entered vigorously into the work of
aw-making at Harrisburg. and sue
ceeded in securing more and better leg
islation for this dictrict than we have
been able to procure for years.
He introduced the bill known as the
"Connell BILL" and by his persistent ef-
forts and influence secured its passage.
This bill provides that where poor
district takes care of its own INDECENT
insane. it shall receive from the state
81 % per week for each such insane per-
son. BY this bill the taxpayers of this
district alone are saved about SlS.OOO
annually He was also instrumental in
passing the present Mechanics Lien
law, which prevents the Iabcrer from
being defrauded of his wages by dis
honest contractors; the Plumbers bill,
the Superior Court bill. and many
other important laws.
Notwithstanding the unusual de-
mand for appropriations, Mr.. Connell
succeeded in securing $4,000 for the
Lackawanna hospitals; he also led the
fight against reducing the appropria-
ton for the public schools Of this state
and this. Notwithstanding that it was
his first term at Harrisburg. In view
of this we believe that we are justified
in asking you as voters and taxpayers
to promote your own interests and the
interest Of the district. by giving to Mr.
Connell your hearty and earnest sup
port at the polls on November g.
This is the most important district in
Lackawanna county. and Northeastern
Pennsylvania, comprising as 1t does the
larger part of the city of Scranton,
which includes nearly all the public and
charitable institutions, which must re-
ceive state aid. If Mr.. Connell is r.
turned as an old member, he will with
out doubt be accorded a place on the
appropriation committee, which will
put him in position to look after and
secure aid for such important local in
stitutiOns as the Lackawanna hospital.
the Oral school. and the Home for the
Friendless, without which assistance
the work of these institutions must be
greatly handicapped.
We believe. therefore. that il is the
duty of every voter in this district, ir-
respective of past party affiliations, TO
vote for Mr.. Connell's re-elecrlon.

Chairman Second Legislative district.
