necessary to the redemption OF their prom
ises II silver, as q disturbing force, IL to
be disposed of, 1t must be by verdict Of
some emphasis. A return made by bare
majority of the jury would be the signal
for a prompt appeal Of the issue to the
next Congress elections, and business
would, necessarily, In a large measure re-
main unchanged. Mr.. Bryan and his
friends, after a brief rest, would resume
their agitation, with Mr.. Bryan as the
prospective nominee of the silverites for
President again in 1900.
These are considerations which will enter
into the contest from this time. And they
will inspire the one side as well as the
other. Mr.. Bryan is fond Of repeating his
assertion that even If silver loses this year.
the fight will go on. If he finds he cannot
win, 1t will be everything to him. there
fore, to bring the contest as close to a
draw as possible; to retire from the field in
fairly good order and go to work at once
preparing for the renewal of hostilities.
Mr.. Watson loses heavily by these south
ern returns. The populists of the south are
evidently not under his control. Otherwise.
not only in Georgia, but in Arkansas, Ala
bama and Florida, they would have given a
better account of themselves. Mr.. Watson,
as a populist leader. therefore, seems to be
almost as impotent as Mr.. Sewall as a
democratic leader, and neither may justly
claim to be affording Mr.. Bryan any help
whatever.
If Mr. Watson's sore throat should prove
serious enough to force him to abandon
further stumping, the campaign will lose
an interesting figure. For this reason the
medical opinion in the case ought not to be
tinctured with the slightest suspicion of
partisanship. The country has a perfect
right to demand a consultation Of ply
sicians, and that a populist, democrat
and republican shall all participate in It,
