ont of Funds.

/ in reply to a question a day or two ago,
! Chairman Jones of the democratic nation
| al committee said: I'VE have got down
to our normal condition, without money"
That is TO say, the democratic committee
is short Of funds with which to pay the
legitimate expenses OF the campaign. It
is unfortunate that this should be the con-
dition of affairs just at this time, which
is regarded by many Of the leaders Of both
parties as being the most critical stage of
the campaign. The real battle ground
has up to this time been compare lively
neglected, each side probably waiting for
the other to strike the first blow and thus
disclose its plan Of campaign. Now, how
ever, the middle west is being invaded
by the campaigners, and the fight is wax
ing hot.
With an empty treasury, the democrats
would be at a disadvantage. For. how
ever reprehensible 1t may be TO employ
great sums of money in political work,
there are certain perfectly legitimate and
necessary expenses that must be met. A
big campaign fund may be drawback
to the party employing 1t. but a fund of
considerable size is necessary to the sue
cossful prosecution of campaign work. 1t
takes money to pay for printing and post
age, for fares over the railroads for speak
ers, for the erection of stands. for bunt-
ing and banners and brass bands. These
things are essential What party could
hope to make even a fair showing with
out colors, torch lights and music?
The republicans have all the money they
can spend. within reach. And they are
spending it where it will do the most
good" The democrats have no desire to
meet them in kind; to put up money
against money. Indeed It is to a degree
the strength of the democratic position
that they are contending against the per-
nicious use of money in politics. Never
theless. they cannot fight without some
of the Shows of war" The democratic
party fighting the battles of the people,
has the right to expect that the people win
pay it's legitimate expenses. The party
has no fiat" favorites out of whom it
can FRY" what funds it needs. 1t must
depend upon voluntary contributions.
Chairman Jones' treasury should not re
main in it's present depleted condition an
other day

Mrs. JiIson on silver.

edge, says the Washington Star.
Il am glad you have remarked Jill
son. Hoping to avoid a political discus
sion he asked: What are the weather in
dicatiOns? ?"
Never mind the weather" said Mrs
Jilson severely. Every time 1 want to
talk to you about important matters you
try to turn the conversation on the
weather, or base ball, or some other
equally unimportant thing. Now, what
| want to do is to convince you that you
ought to be for silver and for Bryan and
MI the rest Of it instead of being a gold
bug, and a Mckinley man."
Every other man I meet on the street

That is just like man., said Mrs. jill
son, with emphasis. Listening to a lot

home you don't want to hear a little COM

Jilson disappeared behind his newspa-

Jilson looked resigned.

thousand dollars worth now, when Bryan
is elected with his 16-to-1 business ratio

worth about sixteen thousand dollars
Now, you are not going TO throw away all
that money, are you?"
If Bryan is elected suppose you will
have the silver ware coined?" asked Jill
son feebly.
mo, I'll just add $4,000 to the value Of

Mrs Jilson with complacency.

Talking TnrIn.

The Chicago Inter Ocean puts the coun-
try upon notice that in tho event Of re-
! publican victory at the poll next month,
an effort viii De made to pass a new tariff
/ bt,l-a Mckinley tariff bill-at the earliest
( possible opportunity. That opportunity
win not come during the life time Of the
present congress, because the Senate is
In control of the sllverites; nor during the
lifetime OF the present administration,
because President Cleveland would veto a
high tariff bill even if one were to run
the gauntlet Of congress. But II the re-
puhhcans We're TO gain several senators
as a result of the elections and hold the
House, besides clecting the President an
extra session Of congress would be called
soon after March g. 1887, for the especial
purpose OF passing a high tariff law. The
republicans would affect to regard the re-
suit Of the election as a demand for a re-
turn to a high protective policy. They
would turn to their old, smashed Idol
Of protection, and declare that it had
given them the victory. They would ignore
the fact that the tariff had been relegated
to the rear in tho campaign.
1t is we'll enough that leading newspa-
pers in the republican councils, like the
Inter Ocean, should from time to time re-
mind us that Ephraim is stin Joined to his
idols; that democrats have nothing what
ever to expect from Mckinley and his
party; that those democrats who vote
against Bryan this fall will be voting in
favor of those false economic principles
that they have been combating for years
and years. The republicans are tacitly
agreeing to put the tariff in second place.

They are now throwing a sop to the Pal

Judge Burke smiled, while another Ital-

"If you can neither read nor write. how
do you expect to vote?" persisted the
court, while every one present laughed.
Mckinley" replied the Italian, with a
decisive shake OF his head.
He was given his papers.

Whore Tammany stnnds.

Republican papers have been fond of
claiming that the immense crowds which
turn out to Mr.. Bryan's meetings do so
more out of curiosity than anything else.
They will have to invent some other sort
Of story now. Mr.. Bryan has been in
New York three times since his nominal
ton, and has spoken in New York twice
and Brooklyn twice. On each occasion
more people went out to hear him than
could get within sight of the speakers
stand, and on Tuesday night they were as
anxious to get a sight of him and hear
his voice as they were at the time of
his notification in the Madison Square
Garden.
New York people may "go crazy" for
a little while over a freak, but they do
not stay crazy hong. They quickly drop
the freak, and .ook for something else
to amuse them. But they know good
thing" when they see it. They admire a
man of ideas and ability, and like to see,
hear and honor him. They have found
Mr.. Bryan to be a man of that class.
They have learned that he has something
instructive to impart to them, and that
he can impart it in pleasing manner.
They are therefore, anxious to hear him
whenever they can get an opportunity
to do so.
The meeting in New York on Tuesday
night shows something else besides the
fact that it is not curiosity
alone that draws people to the
BRYAN meetings II shows that
Tammany Hall is in the fight after
its old style, and that its fighting will
be for the regular democratic ticket,
without evasion or reservation. There
have been suggestions that the Chicago
candidate would be KNITTED" by Tam
many. The immense attendance at the
ratification meeting, and the enthusiasm
evinced, are in opposition to the accept
ance of amy such suggestion.
