POLITICAL NOTES.

Bryan at Des Moines, on his way
to receive notification OF his nomina
ton, said "Oratory sometimes has
been laughed at but, my friends,
oratory will be with us as long as
the human race endures. When
ever there is a cause that stirs mems
hearts, there will be orators to
present that cause. Eloquence is
simply the speech of person who
knows what he is talking about and
believes what he says"
Chairman Hanna tried to form an
alliance with VIM. G. Whitney, but
Whitney would not ally. He hest
tates before he brakes with the great
Democratic party entirely.
l.. G. Moore, colored messenger
in the Treasury Department under
Logan Carlisle, the Secretary's son,
resigned his position when Mr..
Carlisle made public his declaration
that he would not support Bryan
and Sewall.
Bryan at Joliet, Ill. ton bis way to
New York, said: "Our opponents
sometimes say that we do not know
what Is to | means, but L want you
to let them understand that it has
one meaning, and that is that every
one silver man is to get Is others to
vote with him in November. That
is one meaning of Is to that they
will be interested in learning during
the progress of the campaign"
Samuel Gompers, President of the
American Federation of Labor, says
that the Federation is in favor of the
free aud unlimited coinage of silver
at the ratio of 16 to l, without wait
ing for action by any other nation or
nations.
The National Committee of the
gold standard Democratic boilers
met last Friday in indianapolis,
Ind. Jno. M. Palmer, of Illinois,
was made Chairman. They call
themselves the National Democratic
party. A convention was called to
meet at indianapolis Wednesday,
September 2, to adopt revised DEM
ocratic platform and nominate cam
didates for President and Vice
President. w. ID. Bynum of India
ma was made Chairman of the Exec
utive Committee. While, ostensi-
bly,, it is the object of this move
ment to establish another so-called
Democratic party, the unconcealed
purpose of its individuals is nothing
more nor less than to defeat the Chi
cago nominees. A more deliberate
piece of treachery never wore a
thinner mask of patriotism.
On the face of the returns, David
son County Democrats elected all of
their ticket, with the exception of
Sheriff. J. ID. Sharp, the independ-
ent "gUo-goO,' Republican Populite
candidate, has six more votes to his
credit than w. Pres Moore, the
Democratic nominee. Mr.. Moore
has filed his notice of protest and
made specifications of Irregularities,
and, it is thought, will win the fight.
The "Goo-goos, &C., have responded
by contesting the election of Len X.
Hart, the Democratic nominee for
Trustee. The present returns give

that it was the intention of the gold

that they will be in a position to

The Texas Populists, in conven-

electors. Three campaign man
ayers were named, and it is under

with the Republicans, giving Nc
Kinley the electoral vote, and the
Republicans in turn will assist in
electing the Populist State ticket.

met at Larned, Kan, last Saturday

gress from the 7th district.
Hon. Benton McMillin, of the
Fourth Congressional District, was
nominated for Congress by about
10000 majority; his opponent, Plum

with the exception of the said Hoke,

further said that while every oppor-
tunity will be given Hoke to resign,
the President viii not make any
formal request flor his resignation.
The net majority of Joseph F.

for Governor of Alabama, over Good

WHAT REPUBLICANS PROPOSE.

The pressing and just demand Of the
producers Of the country, notably the
agriculturists, is for a market No
matter what the per capita Of money,
no matter what the amount Of free
coinage Of silver, neither will insure
them a market The Republican party.
realizing these truths, has declared that
the home market should be conserved
and the. Government revenue aug
mented by q wisely discriminating pro-
tective system.
Against this the Bryanites and the
Democrats alike are arrayed. Both de-
ncunce any such policy and harp to
wearisomeness upon the silver nostrum
the panacea that they claim will heal
all Ills. II we are to have a market
for our producers we must conserve
first the home market, and cut off the
unbearable competition Of cheap labor
and cheap production countries. Mr.
Bryan attempts to ignore the tariff
issue, and for a very good reason-the
utter failure of the Democratic policy,
which under the Wilson bill has
brought the country to the pass of
prostrated Industries and deficiency In

MAJOR PICO'S CLAIM.
The State Board of Examiners Asked
to IndOrse 1t.

Major Jose Ramon Pico appeared be-
fore the State Board of Examiners yes
terday and laid before that body an ar
ray Of facts and figures in support of
his claim against the State for some
$4,000 The claim is based on moneys
actually paid out by Major Pico for the
equipment and maintenance of bat
talon of cavalry during the war
Major Pico fought gallantly for the
Union, and after the war he accompa-
MED General Grant on the latters tour
Of the world. His father, General Pico,
gave generously to the State lands and
money for benevolent and other public
institutions. and the sum he now asks
of the State is but a triie compared to
what he and his family had given.
His claim has the Endorsement Of the
late Governor Booth and other high Off
cials, and several times has the Legis-
latrue allowed it, but for some reason
Governors have failed to sign the bills
What he now asks is that the State
Board of Examiners indorse and recon-
mend it to the coming Legislature
The Major is now about 20 years old
Iand it is only just that the State accord
him this slight recognition of services
and sacrifices made by him many years
ago when the Union needed both de-
tenders and money.

While as a matter of fact we have
been growing richer, our resources
more and more developing, the influx of
cheap labor and cheap labor products
has continued to paralyze the arm of
the American producer and American
artisan.
It is this that the Republican party
proposes to correct. 1t proposes to re-
store the American merchant marine
to the position it once occupied, by dis
eliminating duties in favor of foreign
commerce on American bottoms; it
proposes to meet the need of the hour
by a protective tariff; it proposes to
enlarge the volume Of silver money as

the business Of the country a disas-

HOW IT MAY BE SETTLED.

Prior to 1873 the United States coined
only S,OOOO 900 silver dollars. Since 1873
we have coined 397, 100000 silver dol
lars; every dollar has been worth 1OO
cents in gold, and no man has lost a cent
because the dollar was of less value
than 100 cents. There has been Gov
ernment prop under every dollar, re-
gardless of the actual grains Of fine sill
yer In it.
We have purchased over $500. 100000
Of silver since 1873. The bulk of 1t re-
mains In the treasury to-day.
We have now as the ratio Of coin to
currency, excluding national bank
notes, 20.5 per cent. Of gold, and GA
Of silver. But 1t is conceded that the
volume of the silver may be and should
be enlarged
The Republican party comedies this,
but wise in it's experience and patr1-
otto in its purposes 1t declines to agree
that any sudden and radical expert
mental change shall be made. 1t pledges
itself, however, to conserve the increase
of the volume of silver coinage by urg-
ing international agreement. under
which business and productive interests
could not suffer.
But aside from this and not at all In
conflict with it, and in harmony with
sound financial wisdom, wise legislation
may increase the volume Of silver coin
How this may be done the Record
Union" has clearly pointed out, and we
firmly believe that If a Republican Con-
gress is sent up something of this kind
will be done, until the international
agreement asked for by the Democracy
in their national platform in 1892, and
fouted in their platform Of 1896, can
be secured, namely:
Send the silver surplus bullion in the
treasury to coinage on Government, not
individual account This will at once
and absolutely put into circulation
100000, 900 more of silver coin; dollars,
II you please AT the same time pro-
vide that no coinage of gold shall be
made, or any issue of paper based on
gold, In sums less than $50. Also, pro-
vide that all silver coinage Of the Gov
ernment shall be legal tender for all
debts public and private to the extent
of $50. Also, for convenience, provide
for the issue Of a $50 silver note
Thus we will at once enlarge the vol
ume of the currency in silver for all do
mestic needs, not at all disturb our COM
mercial relations abroad. and will settle
the Silver question" with satisfaction
to all the people. except, perhaps, the
silver mine owners who wish the pub
lie treasury to be an open market for
the sale of their bullion to be coined
on individual account, so that "a cents
