Glass Houses.

There are great many insulting
things being said abont the Popu-
lists by some Democratic papers
with the palpable intention of so
exasperating the Populists that
they will refuse to 90 to the polls
to vote for Bryan. These papers
are evidently interested in defeat
ing free silver and are also inter-
ested IN Hanna's Doodle. When
Hanna can find leading Demo
cratic manager who loves Doodle
better than harmony of the silver
forces, there is little doubt that
such party will be well supplied,
and that he will shOw great AFRO
gance, do his best to bclittle and
prevent recognition of the Popu-
lists, and, as far as he can, pre-
vent the consumation of the union
of the silver forces. So when you
see big Democratic manager OPP
posing POpulist recognition, you
will see an illustration of how
''money talks"-Hanna's money.
kx
1t should be borne in mind that
Sewall has "bar'r' as well as
Hanna. Many uncalled for things
have been said about the middle
of the road" Populists, which we
are thoroughly convinced were
without one shadow of foundation.
But those Western men who were
so anxious TO sacrifice the Peoples
party organization to Democracy,
and the little sO-called Populist pa
per that advocated it and even now
has Sewall's name at the head of
its column where Watson's ought
to be, has not been accused of COM
ing in contact with Sewall's "bar'l;"
oh, no, And how about the gallery
at the convention that was pack
cd with Sewall shouters and clack-
ers ! And how about the COM
plete organization of the SewalI
forces on the floor of the Conven-
ton, as many as 20 different men
approaching and imploring us to
vote for Sewall, while not one So
licited our vote for Watson, or in
the interest of the middle of the |
road movement (! Any evidence
of Sewall's ''bar'l' about that I!
Hanna's is not the only bar'I, and
the only evidence of his successful |
use of it will be seen in those Dem
Ocratic leaders who love Doodle |
better than union and success of the |
silver ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Sun.
We commend the above to our
the Enterprise, and our
Shreveport Dailies,

Proposition.

just as the Peoples party con-
vention was about to adjourn last
week, Judge j. T. Watkins came
forward and stated to the conven-
ton that he was authorized by the
chairman of the Democratic State
central committee, also by the
chairman of the campaign COM
mittee, to offer the Peoples party
a division of electors in order to
secure joint electoral ticket. -
Judge Gunby replied on behalf
of the convention, in effect: That
in obedience to the st. Louis con-
vention of the Peoples party, this
convention was supporting Bryan
and Watson, had placed an electo-
raj ticket in the field pledged to
the support of that ticket and had
appointed special committee with
full power to change said electoral
ticket to correspond with any
changes the action of the national
committee might require, Said
national committee being vested
with full power to fill vacancies in
the event of the withdrawal OF
Watson or the refusal of Bryan to
accept.

For The Coming Nation.
Talk about them crucifying
Jesus Christ on Calvary!
For you always are denying
Mis'ries of humanity.
At the throne of grace you're
kneeling.
Clinging to the altar horns,
Telling Christ, with cOntrite feeling,
All about His crown of thOrns.
But the tOilers all around you
Wear a HOMEGROWN OH their
brow;
Do their suffr1ngs not confound
yOui
Are they not the Christs of now I!
Arc you ore of Pilates soldiers,
Plating crowns of cruel thorn
For the weary, haIffed tOilers,
Who are bleeding, bruised and
torn 7
Oh, you servile, cringing, creatures!
What does Christ care tor your
crieSs
While depicted Oh your features
Are the truths each one denies:
Truths well known to every
neighbOr;
Truths that to the winds are
told
Plating thOrns for brow of labor,
Like they did for Christ of old.

Ii Was q Solemn Contract.

From Atlanta Commercial, (Dem.)
Whether Senator Jones agreed In
so many words to take Sewall out OF
the race in consideration of the
Populist endorsement of Mr.. Bry
an, is not material.
There are agreements expressed
and implied-in politics as well as
in law.
Why did Senator Jones attend
the Populist convention ! He was
not delegate. On the other hand,
he was chairman of the Democrat
&c national committee, ard his par
ty had already nominated a ticket.
He clearly did not happen in St.
Louis, as is intimated in today's
telegraphic news. He went there
with the predetermined idea of in
ducing Populist endorsement OF
one or both of the Chicago nomi-
nees. 1t was visit full of design,
and it is not material whether SEN
atOr Jones attended the convention
itself. He was in daily. conference
with Senator Allen and other Pop
ulist leaders.
Each understood the other, or
thought they did, and together they
were working for the success of
silver.
What right had Senator Jones
to urge the nomination of Bryan
after Watson was put on the ticket,
if he did not intend to use his in
fluences towards taking Scwall out
of the race Mr.. Bryan had tele-
graphed his desire for the endorse
ment of the full Chicago ticket.
Why was this information with
held from the Populist convention (?
1t is known that the Democratic
chairman and the Populist chair
man conspired to suppress Mr..
Bryan's telegram. Why, unless
Senator Jones felt that it would
defeat his endorsement /!
The very fact that Senator Jones,
who was representing the Demo-
cratic party at st. Louis, withheld
this important news from the con-
vention with which he was trading,
is proof as clear as anything can be
that is not expressed in words, that
the action of the Popuhsts in nomi-
mating Watson, while not all that
be had hoped for, was satisfacto-
~ compromise,
Senator Jones gave his implied

This funny and instructive book
tells in a most humorous way how
the Angel of Liberty took Grover
Cleveland from the White House
in the dead of night, and left him,
ragged and hungry, in Oklahoma
City, to tramp home. Growers
trials and tribulations as tramp
are most ludicrously related, and
his conversations with farmers
and laboring men about the silver
question are very instructive.
Everybody Should Read Ii.
1t contains 176 pages of laugh
provoking matter, and 40 full-page
illustrations of Cleveland as a
tramp.

Ticket.
FOR PRESIDENT,
WILLIAM j. BRYAN,
Of Nebraska.
FOR vICE-PREsIDENT,
THOMAS E. WATSON,
Of Georgia.

Mr.. Bryan's trip from his home
al Lincoln, Neb., to New York,
where he was formally notified last
Wednesday, of his nomination,
was nothing short. of triumphal
march. Thousands met him at
every town, and hundreds at every
cross roads depot.
But in Indiana, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and the East, where it was
thought the masses. were solid for
Mckinley, did the surprises of the
journey occur in the immense and
enthusiastic crowds that met him.
Even ut Canton, Maj. McKinley's
home, thousands of people greeted
him.
At John Sherman's home, Mans
field, o., several thousand people
turned out and listened to few
minutes of his magnetic oratory,
but at Pittsburgh, the home of the
Iron industry, a city of workshops
and manufactures, where, accord.
ing to all theory and past political
experience, the people should be
unanimous for the Napoleon of pro-
lection, we find that the enormous
crowds eclipse anything the West
has ever been able to do for free
silver and, its heroes, both in mum
bers and enthusiasm.
The largest halls in the city were
engaged, and two monster meet
ings were held side by side, while
the packed audiences did not seem
to diminish the crowd from the
streets trying to see or hear their
champion.
Mr.. Bryan fittingly remarked that
it was no longer the .wild West,n
hut the "wild East.n
The gold bug papers are dumb
founded. Our own Picayune in
quires if this thing Is to continue,
aud says If it does, that Bryan
will sweep the country like an ava
lanche does a mountain side.
All, friends, Bryan is simply
preaching Populism with some of
the prejudice against it removed
by the old party cloak of Democra-
cy, and the necessities of the peo-
pie somewhat intensified.
The sweetest story that was ever
told. The sweetest song that was
ever sung is the story of q peoples
oppression and the songs of their
relief told by one who is able and
willing to become their savior.
The Louisiana populist. [volume] (Natchitoches, Natchitoches Parish, La.) 1894-1898, 1896-08-14
The Situation.

Unless Bryan receives the united
Populist vote there is no question
of his certain defeat. The inso-
lent talk of certain Democrats that
the Populists will vote the Demo
cratic ticket any how, with or with
out recognition, is q serious blum
der. The more conservative and
sensible Democrats are fully aware
of this. They want Bryan elected,
and they do not want a union of
the silver vote made impossible by
the foolish talk of the "smart
Alexis" in their own party. AL
ready there is big reaction in ia
vor of ddlc-of-the-road Populist
electors, and the Populists in many
of the States are ripe for revolt
against anything else. If this hap
pens Bryan's defeat is assured, and
the Democrats will have only them
selves to blame.
Now that the goldbug Demo-
Gratis are nominating their own tick
ct and thus throwing the Bryan
Democrats entirely upon the Pop
ulists and Silver Republicans for
hep to elect Bryan, it should be
palmer than ever to the Dememo-
cratic organization that the union
of the silver forces should be made
in earnest, and without deception
on either side.
We hope that the Democrats will
come to their senses before it is too
late !; we beg our Populist friends
not to be over hasty in their actions,
and to be more careful in their
speech than those ill tempered, ill
advised Democrats who seem to be
doing their best to elect Mckinley.
The Populists have askei for
but little recognition of their great
party-the Vice-Presidency. For
that position they have put for
ward one of their best men-an
idol in the party-the ONLY man
who can hold all the rank and file
to the ticket. They cannot and
will not accept less.
The only hope therefore of an
honorable union lies in the with
drawal of Mr.. Sewall from the
ticket, which we hope he will have
the good sense to see and patriot
ism to comply with.
The action of the party in this |
State has in no sense forestalled or
embarrassed any action looking to |

There has as yet been no confer

Chairman Butler regarding the
mode of cooperating by the Pop
Mist and Democratic parties, and
the old party press reports con-
what each of them favors
ire not worthy of belief. The
Associated Press is anxious to de-
feat free silver, and the lies its
agents send out are equal to any
hing Munchausen or Annanias
could produce were they alive to-
Law.

Strang that the bill posters did
not notify the said "Hardy" Brian,
who is not candidate for congress
and will not be, and who, if he
was, would not get caught with a

Watson when he permitted Mr..
Bryan's name TO go before the CON
vention while his telegram was bu-
riNl in tie depths of his inside
pocket. This is the only honora-
bic view to take of it, and, as a
Democratic paper, that has work
ed for silver, the Commercial feels
bound by the contract.
Senator Jones had no right to
expect the Populists to make all
the concessions. He did not ex-
poet it and his actions show that
this was not intended.
Sewall should decline if he is at

way to insure success. If he
doesn't decline the Populists should
have fair representation on the
election ticket of each State, and
it should he SO arranged that the
man securing the majority of the
popular vote in Democratic States
be made vice-president by the cleo
toral college. The majority of the
whole vote will not do. 1t is radi-
cally unfair.
