Populsst WasHburn Tells the DsUt"e 10
Keep Out of Politics.
BOSTON, MASS, Aug. 3.-George +.
Washburn OF this city, Eastern member OF
the National Executive Committee OF the
Peoples party, to-day issued the following
challenge to Bishop John 2. Newman;
Bishop John P. Newman, San Francisco, CAL
DEAR SIR: The press reports OF the last week
credit you with the statement that the Fopu-
lists are no better than anarchists and are not
good American citizens, and that you Wouiu
urge the 1000 ministers in your nome CONFER
ence 10 use their influence III the Puipie Anu
OUT OF 1t against the triumph OF Bryan anu
Sewall and the election OF silver congress.
NOW, sir, belong to the party you insult anu
brand your alleged statement as laise anu un-
ialr, and challenge you to name single Fopu-
list in this country who is also known as an
anarchist
am called "a leading member" of the
church you represent. II 1 am not good
american citizen" may ask are my lnnuence
anu money still wanted in your cnurchl II
you are no more correct in your spiritual Ut
terances than you are in your pollIleal can
we nave any confidence in either?
/ agree with the prominent Catholic who
said he was willing to take his religion from
the head of his church, but not his poliucs.
NOW, blshop, for the sake OF the churcn we
love and the welfare of the country, advise
you to let politics alone until you have studied
THIS monetary question. You reler 10 tne atti-
tude OF our church during the antl-slaVery
agitation to justify you in directing your
ministers to preach politics during the cam
paign instead of religion. Has it occurred to
you that the result of this proposed line OF
action may split our church now just as 1T did
at that time?
Let me inform you that 80 per cent OF the
Popullst party are native-born American citl-
zens, comprising mostly the sturdy farming
element, which for years the statesmen OF
both the old parties proudly alluded to as the
"Done, sinew and sta bility of the country"
These men are intelligent, patriotic and true
ana are called anarchists became they have be-
gun TO think. The result of their thinking
Will be surprise party next November.
Again there were more delegates in our deli
egations who owned their homes and paid
taxes than that of any other political party.
May l add, Bishop, that you will find your
own people are not with you politically. Every
State in your section will be carried for Bryan,
Notwithstanding your residence there.
Lastly, the leading anarchist, Herr Most, is
for the single gold standard and the Republi-
can party, and defy you to name one in our
ranks as an offset to this. Yours for justice.

FIRE IN SA US4LITO.

ItUo Dwellings, on the North Side De-
stroyed by an Early Morning Blaze.
SAUSALITO, CAL, Aug. 3.-Fire broke
out at 2 o'clock this morning in the house
of Henry de Souza in North Sausalito,
just back of the town Jail. 1t quickly
spread to the home of Joseph Frates
standing alongside. Citizens of sausalito
were brought out of their beds by the
blasts from locomotive In the depot
yard and the Fire Department was
quickly on the scene. Nothing could be
done, however, to save the buildings
owing to the lack of water. and some
rather hard criticism Of the town euthori-
ties has been INDUCED in. The buildings,
insured for about $1,000, were com pletely
destroyed. The fire is supposed to be Of
incendiary origin.

Brecksnridge res In Politics.

FRANKFORT, KY. Aug. 3.-The thir-
teen old Franklin County committee
men, all ''sound money" men, who were
deposed by the reorganization effected by
the silver Democrats, held meeting here
to-day and passed resolutions refusing to
recognize the new committee. Their ac.
tion is believed to have been under the
direct suggestion from w. G. p. Breckin-
ridge, as each memb Der is a strong friend of
his. This is taken to mean that Bfeckin.
ridges friends will declare him the Con-
gressional nominee and that he will make
the race.

H1NR1cHsEN'S HANDY HELP.
Silver Bourbon Who Appear Too
Certain That Bryan Will Be
Elected.

CHICAGO, Ill, Aug. 3.-Ex-National
Commits eeman Ben T. Cable, one of the
leaders of the bolting party in Illinois,
was read out of the Democrats party to-
day at the meeting OF the State Central
Committee, the committee under the
leadership of Chairman Hinrichsen.
1t Immediately began the work of draw
ing the line which MARKS the split in Illi-
nois between the silver or regular Demo-
Gratis and the sound-money men or bolt
ers. As result the places of the following
members of the committee were filed by
new men: John P Hopkins, Ben t. Gable.
W. S. Foreman and r. E. Spangler, at
large, and A. A. Goodrich, First District.
OF these gentlemen Hopkins and Fore
man had already resigned, and Spangler
handed his resignation to Chairman Hin
richsen before the meeting was called to
order.
Ex-Judge Goodrich who had been de-
posed at the Peoria convention, was al
ready disposed of, so that the committee
had practically only the case of Ben Gable
to handle. As he Is regarded as the arch
conspirator against Governor Altgeld and
the present Democratic organization, he
was accorded no mercy and no sympathy.
TIE new memb bers appointed to-day
were: A. W. Bastian, vice Gable; E. W.
Harill, vice Foreman; Alex Jones, vice
Goodrich: Carter H. Harrison and A. s.
Trude, vice Hopkins and Spangler.
The committee listened to reports from
the various districts, and these reports,
according to Mr.. Hintichsen, indicate a
majority outside of Cook County for Will
liam Bryan OF more than 10000. The
meeting was addressed by Marion @.
Crawford and Major Pace, candidates for
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and Treasurer.
Governor Altgeld appeared before the
com mittee at the morning session, but
stayed only long enough to inform the
campaign managers in positive terms that
the regular Democrats had only to keep
their grip on the State to make sure of
Bryan getting its electoral vote. He was
confident that Illinois was in the hands Of
Democracy on the free-silver issue.
Chairman Hinrichsen was equally conf
dent and enthusiastic over the OUTLOOK,
saying: "No matter what com bination is
made Bryan will get more than half the
votes cast in Illinois in November It is
truly surprising to note the tide which is
setting in for free silver in this State.
admit we will lose few Democratic votes,
but in third of the counties the detection
will not be noticeable. Governor Altgeld's
popularity is greatest among the class that
Is demanding free silver and Bryan is
strong in Central and Southern Illinois.
Two of the bankers in my own county of
Morgan are Republicans, but for free sill
yer. The richest man in Sangamon
County, Ben Caldwell, president of the
Farmers Bank at Springfield, is an enthu-
siastic silver man and the Democratic
nominee for Congress-"
At the afternoon session of the commit
tee the campaign assessments for the State
nominees to pay were fixed and the COM
mittee adjourned sine die, leaving to the
executive committee the details of cam
paign preparatory work.

CHICAGO, ILL, Aug. 3.--Four National
Com mitteemen we're added to the list to.
day of sound-money Democrats who will
attend the indianapolis meeting. W. B.
Haldeman of the National Executive Com.
mittee sent word for Georgia that T. B.
Neal, president of the Atlanta Cham ber of
Commerce, would represent that State.
Lynde Harrison, a delegate to the late
convention, telegraphed that David A.
Wells OF Norwich. the original free-trader,
Charles R. Root of Waterbury apd Joel
Sperry of New Haven would represent
Connecticut at Indianapolis.
Ohio's Nationa Co mmitteeman is ex.
Congressman ]. II. Outhwaite. Texas Will
be represented by General Clark, NJ. L.
Crawford and J.. H. Smith.
The committee received a letter from
William T. Jenney, chairman of the
Young Mems Democratic Club of Boston,
stating that the club, which had already a
membership of 1900 had repudi lated the
Chicago platform and candidates aud was
engaged in active campaign work.
E. NJ. Falkner of Montgomery, Ala, who
will represent that State at Indianapolis,
wrote to say that sound-money club
would be organized in Birmingham this
week, with probably 1000 signers to the
call, including practically all the business
men of the city. He added: II believe
that with proper management Alabama
can be carried for sound money. | have
called conference here of the sound
money men from different parts of Ala
bama for Tuesday next, the day following
our State election"
E. L. May of Montgomery, Ala, wrote
1.-THE condition OF the sound.money senti.
ment here is most encouraging, and you
may rely upon it that Alabama will be
heard from in no uncertain tones after our
State election is over. Our Eastern friends
are making grave mistake in supposing
that the Southern people desire the en-.
thronement of the hvdra-neaded monster
of free silver. The progressive, solid busi-
ness portion of our population are bitterly
opposed to 1t. Men in this community
who have hitherto looked upon desertion
of the Democratic party as crime would
not hesitate to withdraw their allegiance
rather than become supporters Of this
heresy."
