THE Kansas City World says that the
democratic nomination for president
lies between Teller and Bland. What
the actual facts are no one can tell but
there are some patent facts which make
it appear very decidedly like good pol
icy for the democrats to nominate Tel
Ter, If they come out on silver plat
form such as is expected and the coun-
try demands they will loose probably
from one fourth to one third of the vote
of their party as a conservative estimate
in the States of the East that are under
the rule of the associated monOpOlies
as represented in the gold wing of the
party. Without recruits to take their
places there is no more hope for them
than there is for SbylOck to colOniZe
heaven. Senator Teller could get the
votes of half the republicans west of
the Mississippi river and in our opinion
q combination Of the pOpulists could
easily be effected for his endorsement
The South feels kindly toward him be-
cause he fought the force bill. POpu.
lists have generous feelings for him not
only because Of his manly fight for sill
yer but because he nevertruCkled to cor
pOratiOns and defended the income tax
law. The only thing that would weaken
his candidacy would be the fact that
he represents silver producing State
and the charge that he works from sell
fish motives would be given more
FEASIBILITY than if the candidate were
from some State further east. How
ever this is largely Offset by the fact
that Senator Teller has been so consis-
tent, digni6ed and straightforward in
all his course that even his opponents
who know him best are compelled to
acknowledge his sincerity.

REPURLICAN BOLT.

OF course republicans attempt to
minimize the proportions and pOrtent
of the Teller bolt from the convention
the other day. To be sure it is true
that there was no very great number
of delegates who walked out Of the
convention, and yet they represent
several states, which have always been
counted republican, but the thing Of
the most significance is the fact that
they have so many silent sympathizers,
and many of them too who were dele
gates in the convention and who de-
clined to walk out only because they
thought it best not TO make such a
spectacle, but will cooperate with them
in their lahOrs from now on. Among
these are Senator Carter, who has just
finished his term as chairman OF the
republican national committee and his
colleague Senator Mantle.
Those who entered the bolt have not
the slightest doubt concerning the
wishes of their constituency and it is
conceded by the gold men who con-
trOlled the convention that they fairly
represented their States. 1t is prob
able that the republican leaders had
dispaired of fighting a winning battle
in these silver States without sacrificing
their eastern constituency and they
TOOK no pains to avoid insult to them
thinking by their rebuffs to further
endear themselves to the powers Of
Wall Street and the gold democrats
who feel themselves without home.
There is another significant thing
about the work of the convention.
While it passed a strong gold standard
plank, it also made the usual plea for
protection and engaged in the usual
denunciatiOn of free trade. In driving
the western silver hen out of the party
and turning their States over to the OPP
position they have absolutely precluded
any possibility of securing the passage
of protective tariff measures during the
next Congress Tor in losing these west
ern states they have lost the United
States Senate beyond hope or doubt.
The fact is that these rantankerous
gold men Of the East who dominated
the convention care very little about
protection in truth. They are not
laundering after absolute power in all
departments of the government with
the responsibility it incurs. They
want pie and chance to Maggie over
the tariff for four years and say we
couldn't do anything, meanwhile main
tanning the gold standard as it is, with
the country and every one but the
millionaires on the high road to dispair.

Now that the republican county ticket
is in the field and is so generally adj
mitted to be weak, it is time for the op.
position to council together. 1t is very
evident that there are many free silver
republicans who have felt that they
have been read out of their party and
we're without home. The action CT
the st. Louis convention has completed
the work and now there is only one
course for them to pursue if they wish
any longer to be a factor In the county
politics. They must act either directly
or indirectly with us. These people
have very much in common with us,
on the principal issues of the day,
and if They are expected to vote with
US, by some means they should be
given representation in the makeup
of the ticket. The same may be said
Of the silver democrats who, in fact,
comprise practically all the democrats
In this section. If the various ele-
ments can be harmonized who in es-
sentials believe alike and who are op.
posed to the operations Of the republic
can machine, this county can be taken
from the republican ranks at this cleo
ton. Think upon these things before
the primaries.

AOw REPUBLIrANS FEEL.

There are now more sick and sore
republicans in this State than there
exer we're before. The following are
some interviews with prominent repub-
licans of this State as repOrted in the
State Journal, by its special correspond
ent at st. Louis:
Senator John j. ingalls, said after
the result was known, II have always
been favorable to silver and [ am yet.
| do not care what the national plat
form declares; l will 90 out into the
campaign and talk silver; 1 am not
afraid to do it :"
Congressman Chester 1. Long of the
Seventh district said, II will go home
and make my fight on this platform,
but it will bS hard work. The result
will be close"
Judge j. V. Beekman: "[ am going
home to talk to my constituency. l
do not know yet what 1 shall do"
1 E. Lambert delegate from the
Fourth district: Il am candidate TOR
the legislature in my county, and l
think l can pull through, but the result
in the State is somewhat doubtful.
Kansas is for free silver"
Mayor Frank Vincent of Hutchinson
delegate from the Seventh district: II
am opposed to the free coinage of sill
yer, IL to l, but l recognize that Kan
sas is friendly to silver, and that is
why voted for it in the convention.
l think the result in Kansas this fall,
owing to the platform, makes republi-
can success somewhat doubtful. The
will concentrate every effort
toward carrying the legislative and
senatorial districts, and it is hard to
tell how it will come out. This plat
form may mean the defeat Of Chester
Long for Congress in our district.
NJ. M. Murdoch, delegate-at-large:
l do not care to say what the effect will
be in Kansas, but our State is a silver
State and this platform is not what 1
j. S. Dean, delegate from the Fourth
listrict-Kansas does not approve this
and what it will do is ques-
ton.
Dave Hannah, representative from
Graham countY-No man can carry
our county on this platform, 1 do not
know whether l will be a candidate for
and reelection or not.
j. Fl. Richards of Fort Scott The
platform makes the legislature mat
erof doubt. The platform will greatly |
affect the State in the selection of a
legislature.
7. D. Fitzpatrick-I am afraid of |
Kansas this year, l know that 1 shall |
lOt make any campaign speeches OF
his platform.
l. N. Try, Fort scott, who expects |

out it's tough on a good many Kansas
republicans.

the party whose platform is built OUT
Of New York gold standard plates,
will give free silver. Don't bolt. 1t
will be blot on your record and a
harsh memory in your cid age;" and
thus this book OF lamentations runs on
to persuade the dear bolter that he
should not do damage to himself. Not
but the party can endure it, but, dear
Dolter, you should remember the nasty
democrats and the lOony pOpulists and
hurt not yourself.

MANIFESTO signed by twenty. seven

to declare that they should be deprived

THE poorest of reasons and excuses
given by free silver republicans for not
boiling is that the democrats or the
populists are dishonest. While gangs

average of morals and honesty is about
the same in all parties. All are human

the gold god of Lombard and Wall
streets, upon which the party waits for

sion of dependence to Europe for finan-
cial sophistries, but it is a loud
mouthed braggart for independence
otherwise; home markets, Monroe doc
trine, Cuban and Hawaiian affairs,
claptrap and lingo. Fourth, the mar
ket for products of farms and for peace
issues of bonds is abroad; hence, the
protected home market is patriotism
