hesitate TO say that the sources of reve-
nue. in past campaigns, Principally in
New York City. had not responded and
would not respond and that the commit
tee would have to depentson small con-
tributions from the people.
Chairman Butler Of the Populist COM
niittee was asked the following question
tonight: -

replied. that this has been done in any
state. but if it has been done or is con-
iemplatei the national committee will
not approve or recognize it The highest
law in the party is the action of its ma
tional conventions. No man or state
organization can be disloyal to such su-
presne authority witnouI carrying them
selves in direct and hostile opposition to

Watson is the only ticket that represents

believes in and have contended for from

'"The executive committee will see that

maintained in every state, but If there

ulists and Democrats join forces on the
electoral ticket that there must be a
due and proper recognition of each par
ties candidates by just and equitable
division of electors, supporting the can
didateS of the respective parties"
Senator Butler was asked what eff
feet this announcement would have upon
the fusion in Kansas, where the Popu-
lists took the state ticket and the Demo-
Gratis the electoral ticket, but he de-
clined to go into specific details, saying
that his announcement related to the
general policy Of the committee. The
statement of Mr.. Butler was said to be
the unanimous expression of the COM
notice.
The executive committee of the Popu-
lists decided today to establish branch
headquarters at Chicago, which wiz
be in charge of George +. Washburn OF
Massachusetts. The committee also Sc
iected a finance committee for the cam
paign, consisting of H. W. Reed of Geo
rgia, c. T. Taylor of Philadelphia and
Treasurer Rankin of Indiana. Chair
man Butler was given almost full con-
troll of the Populist campaign and in adj
dition he win be chairman of the Pop
ulist congressional campaign committee
Chairmah Faulkner of the Democratic
congressional campaign committee says
that the committee viii not put any
speakers in the field until after the
first of September. He says that the
committee is short of funds and cannot
send any speakers out but must rely
largely on literature to reach the people.
Chairman Stevens of the Silver party
said today that there would be branch
headquarters of the Silver committee at
Chicago which would look after the
western states campaign and especially
as to speakers. 1t is the intention of
the committee to send from Washington
a great deal of literature and give
great deal of attention to the organiza-
ton of campaign clubs of silver Repub-
hcanS who VIII support Bryan.

Marriage Under Difficulties.

A young couple came in the clerks
Office yesterday from Goldendale and re-
quested marriage license. The young
man was Mortified when told that the
clerk of Wasco county could not issue a
license. AS many OF the people of that
section are in the habit of coming to The
Dalles to supply their temporal wants,
he probably supposed that The Dalles
could minister to his needs in this line
also. They went away feeling much de-
pressed, and the young man especially
seemed very much put out. However
when the Goldendale stage left this
morning they were both aboard, the
clouds of the previous evening giving

sunshine. Where there's will there's
