wAsHlNeToN:LETTER.
A weekly Budget OF Interesting No"S
from the Capital.


WASHINGTON, July lit is openly
stated in Washington that the popuils's
demanded the promise Of two places IN
the cabinet and other patronage as lhe
price of the support of Bryan and eewall
by the populists convention which Will
be held at St. Louis next week. 1t Is De-
cause Of haggling over this demand 'hat
certain prominent populists have oeen
talking as though there were oouolS
abont the action of the st. Louis c0nVen-
tion. The silver party which will hold
convention at the same time and place
also demands the promise of caDlnet
position as the price of its support, ana
the same demand has been made IN De-
half of the boiling silver republicans
BRYAN can very safely make these or any
other promise, as there is no probability
that he will ever be in position to be
called upon to make them good.
Although Mr.. Cleveland ID strongly OPP
posed to the pOpulists ticket ana pat
form of the Chicago convention, If he has
his way there will be good democratic
ticket but in the field, which is the very
thing that the supporters of the Bryan
and Sewall are hoping for.
Mr.. j. H. Turner, secretary of the pop
ulists national committee seems disposed
to rub it in on the gold democrats, II
one may judge by the language he uses
in statement issued this week, urging
populists to endorse the Chicago ticket
and platform. He starts the statement
with this positive assertion: "The result
of the late democratic national convention
at Chicago is undoubtedly the triumph
Of populism," and follows with Others
Just as irritating, because Of their truth
fulness. For instance: "The democratic
party at Chicago to all intents and pur'
poses substituted the pOpulists platform
for the old platform that the party has
been using for years." and this: "Mr
Bryan, the nominee of that convention
is man who fits its platform. For more
than two years he has acted with th'
populists Of his state. 1t cannot be sue
cessfully denied that the principles ad
vocated by the pOpulist party have cap
tured the democratic party" Republi
cans will aid in giving will aid in Civ
ing Mr.. Turner's statement as wide
circulation as possible, believing that i
will make votes for Mckinley and Hob
art.

The Cleveland Leader suggests that the
,livorce laws be made uniform in the
United States and territories. This is a
yaluable suggestion, but to refer the
matter to congress, we are inclined to
think would interfere with the rights of
states. As an Introductory we would
suggest that the governors of the states
and territories be empowered by the
general assemblies to appoint a commit
zee of three from each state to be clothed
with authority meet in conference and
to frame divorce laws to be submitted to
the general assemblies for consideration.

The wisdom of keeping gdrilled dsOldierson

The wisdom of keeping gdrilledsoldierSo on
hand becomes more apparent every year.
Had the mayOrOf Cleveland called upOnt the
governor at the beginning of the strike al
the Brown Hosting Works for the mill
tia there would doubtless been no trouble
The police are as a rule too sympathetic
to perform effective service, therefore at
the beginning of every strike the SOL
iiers should be ordered out to see that
order is preserved. Men are at liberty to
leave the service, but not to defy the law
in attempting to intimidate Others from
taking their places. Had the troops been
called out at the beginning of the dis
graceful strike at Chicago in 1894 the
taxpayers in Cook county, Illinois, would
have been relieved Of the payment Of at
least 100000, which will have to be
paid as damages for property destroyed

have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at this
season of the year, and who have noted
the success of the medicine in giving
them relief from that tired feeling, wan

while it tones and sustains the system,

In combination, proportion and

to itself, and unequalled in true merit.
No other medicine ever possessed SO

1t is undoubtedly the best medicine
ever made to purify, vitalize and en-
