Dillon Led the List

After the arrival of the Populst dele
gates from the st. Louis conN ention, yes
terday afternoon, meeting of delegates
to the Sixth district congressional con-
vention, which meets at San Luis Obispo
on the 18th of August, was held. A vote
was taken on congressional preferences,
which resulted in seven votes being cast
for H. c. Dillon, six for Sprague of Fair
mount, and one each for E. NJ. Wardell
and E. c. Bowman.
A resolution was adopted declaring
against fusion. and a committee was APP
pointed to wait on the Democrats and
give them notice that the congressman
from the Sixth district must be Popu-
list. This is the way the resolution read
but they probably meant that if the
Democrats put up candidate, they
would do the same.

Why Bryan Was Nominated by
the Populists
1T COULD NOT BE RESISTED
Was in Obeiissec to Great Popular
Demand
He Insists That Watson VIII Not Withdraw
Two Ways Out OF the Diff.
Guilty

The California delegates to the Popu-
from the east yesterday afternoon. The
southern contingent, headed by ex-Dis-
trict Attorney H c. Dillon stopped here,
while the others proceeded north. Mr..
Dillon was seen by a Herald reporter
during the afternoon. and expressed
himself as being delighted to get back
home. The trip across the continent,
he said, was very pleasant; the weather
at st. Louis was, however, wretched; it
was almost too hot to breathe. and the
delegates suffered much Inconvenience.
In regard to the action of the Populists
in nominating MIR. Bryan, Mr.. Dillon
said:
THE nomination of Bryan by the Peo-
pies party. in the face of telegram
withdrawing his name from the conven-
ton because of its refusal to indorse his
running mate, was in obedience to
popular demand which could not be re-
sisted The Democrats at their Chicago
convention felt the same pressure in ia
vor of free silver an income tax, and
against the national banking system.
They yielded to it, and having no such
doctrines of their own, borrowed those
principles from the Populists. Thus
both parties followed the principles of
direct legislation, upon which alone true
democracy can be built.
THE St. Louis convention departed
from that idea, and got mixed up be-
tween a popular demand for measures
and a local partisan demand for men,
Thus Tom Watson, an idol of the people
like Bryan himself. was used to dazzle
the convention and endanger the final
triumph of measures TO relieve the peo-
pie from financial distress. Those DEM
ocrats, however. who entehtain the hope
that Watson will be withdrawn in favor
of Sewall may as well dismiss it as wild
and visionary There are but two ways
out of the dillculty. Either Sewall must
do the patriotic act and resign. or the
people must work out their own saliva
ton at the polls by voting for the DEM
ocratic electors. But the Democrats are
intoxicated with joy. They fondly i'm
agine that they have bagged the Peo-
Pies party and can do what they please
with their game. The truth is they are
simply masquerading in borrowed
Clothes and the people will demand
proof of their conversion to Populist
principles and satisfactory guarantees
that their Chicago pledges will be re-
deemed in Washington. l rejoice over
the opportunity which this campaign
affords for a reconciliation among men
calling themselves by different party
names, but who are in fact Jeffersonian
Democrats. earnestly desiring the tri-
| umph Of the same principles.
There cannot be two parties standing
! for the same principles. Neither can
| there be one party standing for antagon-
istic principles. \ house divided against
itself cannot stand. In some way. there
