There is only one Interpretation
to be put upon the result in Yer
mont. 1t means that the free silver
propaganda has not made the slight
est impression upon the RupubIican
rank and file in the East; while
thousands of Democrats have been
alienated from their own Fartv by
the Chicago departure.
DR.. Jackson's error, like Gen.
SCOTS in 1852, was in talking too
much. He undoubtedly lost some
thing from both ends by declaring
that he ''stood on the platform he
was nominated on, and no other"
and that he supported Bryan and
Sewall on the opposite kind of Il
platform. His motive was of the
best, to hold the democratic party of
the state together so far as he could;
but it is easy to see now that it was
unfortunate and it has resulted in
giving him drubbing which so
good man and with SO good views
does not deserve. HIS first inclina-
ton after the Chicago convention
was to do as MIR. Winslow did in
Maine, refuse the nomination and
throw up the whole business, and
probably he is sorry now that he did
not do so.--Brattleboro Reformer.

The third ticket already finds
stAunch, outspoken support from the
leaders of the real Democracy both
north and south. and there is now
very little question rs to the wisdom
of the action of the Indianapolis con-
vsntjon. The candidates are strong
IN their respective sections, popular,
and ably represent the principles
enumerated in the platform.

The significance of the voting in
Vermont on Tuesday should not be
underestimate or overcstimated.
An election which gives the Repub-
lean party by far the largest plural
ity ever known in that state, and
which leaves the Democracy of YER
mont stranded. with one of the
Snallest votes ever cast for candl-
dates Of that party, has meaning
which can be easily interpreted. 1t
shows that the sentiment of the pco-
pie of Vermont is strongly, over
whelmingly, against the free COM
age of silver without international
observation-disclosures Post.

Circular No. 2.
A COMPROMISE EFFECTED.
To the Republicans Of the State Of
Delaware.-Gentlemen: At Joint
meeting of the two State Committees
held late last night, it was unanimously
agreed upon that, in order to insure
Republican success in the state, it was
necessary to have but one candidate for
governor and one candidate for Con-
gress, and after a lively debate it was
agreed upon that the Union Republi-
cans drop Hoffecker and vote for Hig-
gins, and the regulars drop Houston
and vote for Willis. Therefore, all Re
publicans are requested to vote for
Higgins and Willis, thereby insuring

E. T. WARNER HURT.
Addicks Star of Destiny Went
up in Smoke.
FIRE AT ADDIOKs HEADQUARTERS

THE PARADE ON SATURDAY
EvENING-THE MEETING AT
THE AUDITORIUM WAS A FLAT
FAILURE, ONLY A FEW HUN
DRED ATTENDING.
There were but three or four un-
pleasant Incidents connected with the
regular Republican parade on Saturday
! evening. First, and foremost. was the
deplorable accident which occurred to
| y. Iatnall Warner, president OF the
Mckinley and Hobart Business Men d
cub, whose horse reared at Seventh
and Market streets and fell upon him
infiicting injuries which necessitated
Mr.. Warmers removal to his home on
Delaware avenue and the summoninQ
OF DR.. James A. Draper, the family
physician, who pronounced the injuries
internaland spinal in character. but not
necessarily fatal. At present he Is rest
ing easily, with every prospect of re-
covery, but his convalescence will nee
essarily be slow and painful
Next IN Importance came the incip-
tent blaze at Addicks headquarters. at
Ninth and Market streets. While the
Addicksites were prevented from pa
rading with the regulars, they deco
rated the front of their building pro
fusely. and made it the most attractive
OF any OF the several centres of politi-
cal activity. Not only that. but thew
laid in n generous supply Of Roman
candles and Bengal lights and set them
on, not only for their own little pa
rade as Il wended its way to German
Hail, but also for the regular Republi-
can parade. Just as the head OF the
Jackson and Sharp Company's delega-
tion reached the Addicks wigwam. one
of the gas mans enthusiasts sent a ball
from q Roman candle into the decora-
uons, and in an instant the reasonable
hames were licking up the red, white
and blue. The Addicksites did their
best to save the large star, which was
the centre piece of the decoration. but
IL went up in smoke with the rest OF
the pretty tokens of Bay State appreci-
alton, and the regulars declared that it
was an omen that the Addicks cause
was doomed to go up in smoke on
Tuesday. An alarm was turned i'm
from No. box but the Addicksitea
worked so industriously that they ex-
tinguished the flames without the fire
engines being called into requistion.
WIN Aht0t tAttltlOubs everything
passed Oft in manner most gratifying
to the 1000 paraders, and the many
thousands who came out to see them
pass. The men, both mounted and on
foot, looked we'll and several wagon
loads of girls, dressed IN white, added
to the appearance of the line. Many
buildings were beautifully decorated
and lighted.
The meeting at the Auditorium was
a failure. Not more than three or four
hundred persons assembled there TO
hear Edward G.. Bradford, Frederick E.
Bach, Robert G. Houston and George
A. Elliott speak on state issues. The
expected a big meeting. and
had provided a stand outside for the
Auditorium overflow. but the people
had seen the parade. and that was
inough for one night In consequence.
he ten-minute speeches were made to
! very small audience.

Bach must have gone to headouar-

the Goals, for about / O'Clock Mr..
Knowles called up the Evening Journal
Office, denied that he had used Bach's
name In the Interview and asked that
the interview be left out, saving that
he did not say that Bach had any,
thing to do with It. The reporter con
tended that he did say it and told him
that he was simply retracting It for
the purpose of shielding Bach. This
Mr.. Knowles declared to be untrue. At
all events, the Journal refused to sup
press his statement Shortly afterwards
Mr.. Knowles appeared at the Journal
onice- The reporter read over his in
terview and he agreed that IL was cor
rect with the exception of the use OF
Bach's name Finally he said that If
he did use the name or give the inn
preston that Bach was concerned in
the AFFAIR he did not intend to do Il
he was told that his second statement
would be given and he left. very much
exercised that he could not withdraw
his first interview, particularly that
part referring to Bach.
