NEW YORK, May 16.-General Horace
Porter is the choice Of the Western Nc
Kinley leaders for the vice presidential
nomination. This comes from source
that is not open to question, and it is
added that, although he has never held
Office and has hitherto declined to be-
come candidate for any public posi-
ton, he would not refuse second place
on the ticket. He is q bosom friend of
the Ohio man and has his army record,
his business standing and his position
as president general Of the Sons Of the
American Revolution in his favor. Con-
ferences between members of the Union
League, of which he has been four times
president, and of representatives Of sew
eral Republican clubs, have been held
within few days, and an understand
ing favorable to the combination has
been reached.

Reinforcements of Twenty Battalions
Needed in Cuba.
LONDON, May 16.-The correspondent
of The Standard at Madrid says
Gloomy impressions reign in Havana as
to the prospects for military operations
and reinforcements of 20 battalions are
deemed indispensable because the local
volunteers do not respond to the call to
arms with the coming of the rainy sea-
son. Several filibustering expeditions
have landed war materials ON various
parts of the island lately.
The insurgents are credited with ain
intention of renewed activity during the
approaching unhealthy season, when
Europeans cannot move easily on &C.
count of the tropical heat and rain.

of permanent chairman from among

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 3I.-Thomas E.
Watson spoke at Andersonville today in
behalf of West, Populist candidate fo-
Congress in the Tenth District. In the
course of his remarks he expressed a sin
cere desire that Bryan should be elected at
all hazards. Respecting himself, he said,
among other things:
Il am out of the race in Georgia. There
are two tickets You can vote next Tues
day for Bryan and Sewall or Mckinley
and Hobart, and if 0 can't stand either
stay at home"
He paid his respects to the fusion which
has been effected in various States, es-
pecially in Kansas, and as to North Caro-
lima, he said Butler had arranged the most
beautiful fusion ever seen.
"If | Were to go into that State to speak"
he exclaimed, what could ! say? could
repeat the ten commaras .urts, say the
Lords prayer and disml thc congrega-
tion."
Watson is not looking well. His voice is
not strong and he seems jaded.

Native and Foreign Silver.

There is no distinction made at our
mints between the coinage of native and
foreign gold, and there is no good reason
why there should be any in regard to sill
yer. Australian or African gold make
good enough American twenty, ter and
five dollar pieces for us. Then why
should we turn up our noses at silver dol
lars, halves, quarters or dimes because the
metal came from Mexico, Peru or British
Columbia? Uncle Sans mint stamp
Americanizes the metal, which is far bet
ter and more profitable material for natur-
alization than the pauper labor element.
which is imported for the benefit of the
trusts and combines which are fostered bv
the same plutocratic influence that is and
always will be exercised to debase and de
stroy the metallic money of the people.

the truth of this aphorism when he ORDER
ed Mckinley to stay at home and let the
contribution fund do his talking.

Friend Nixon: In regard to your letter

Democratic party and the Peoples party
is complete in this state and both sides are
satisfied.
That low will give BRYAN 50. ma

that Mckinley will carry the State is

can managers know it. The fight has
been a long one, in fact l have been con-
tending for the principles supported by
Mr.. Bryan for the past twenty years, and
mo of the time against overwhelming
odds, but the light is now breaking and on
the Sd of next month the people of the
United States will prove by their ballots
that the gold power, all powerful as it has
been in the past, when the plain people
have been divided through party trickery,

ers have for our gallant, eloquent, able

great enterprise during the recent deluge.
Its story of the flood has been an excel
