in the Republican party only reached
thus far that the candidate would be the
product either of moried corruption OF
boss dictation.
Mr.. Griggs, as in duty bound spoke
in seathihg terms OF the financial policy
Of The Democracy. the tariff and the va
rious loans by which the gold reserve
has been maintained and the public credit
upheld. He should have rounded out his
remarks with some comments upon the
twin Dingley bills, the horizontal tariff
ure to increase monopoly and reduce rev.
enue, the other a measure to increase the
interest-bearing debt without diminish
ing the volume OF the fat currency. He
might have completed the tale with an
a~llusion to the Senate substitute for
both OF these measures. the bin providing
for the unlimited free coinage of silver.
Then he might have s~upplanted his ques-
ton. "what has this Administration
done9" with this one, What has this
Congress doneg.
As he was on the subject of finances.
he might have taken up the question as
Il affects New Jersey and her cities. He
might have answered the question, What
mas he himself done to protect the people
Of this State against railroad greed?ss
He might have told us what the late
Republican Legislature, with its great
majorit.es In both Houses. has lone. Did
1t pass the Queen law to equaIize the
burdens upon property? Did it pass any
measure to make the trolley companies
pay for the use of the highways Did
1t pass any measure calculated to break
the grip. of the Morris Canal upon the
waters of the State, in virtue of
which the East Jersey Water Company
has been trying to wfest millions of
money from the city of Jersey City?
Protection, indeedl 1t well becomes the
creature OF Garret A. Hobart, the ex-
Legislative pleader Of the railways, the
ex-counsel for the East Jersey Company,
the representative of every element of
capitalists plumber in this State, to
speak the word protection ON a public
platform. What the people need lis pro-
lection against him and his boss. and all
their kind, and the party whose dire tens
denotes he SO aptly embodies.

One of the remarkable features of this
present campaign Is the way the war is
being carried into the Republican dis
tricts. This is an admirable feature, too.
and it is largely due to the modern meth
DDS of the County Committee. The organ.
ization of clubs or associations in every
ward in the city is the wisest and best
move that has ever been made in local
ing activity is felt in every minute Of
the campaign. There has been brought
onward, all over the city, a new force
Of young men. They are not the sort Of
young men who are looking for political
Jobs. or who are in politics for a living.
They are intelligent. philosophical citi-
gems who are taking an interest in po1iti-
cal work from public motives. for their
own and the public good.
The results of this injection Of new
blood were plainly perceptible in the cam
paign last fall. 1t was not in the mere
fact Of carrying the city or the county
that It was to be seen, but rather in a
study OF the results in special localities.
TIL fact that so many Republican wards
were carried by the entire Democratic
ticket. including the Assemblymen, told
the story. and an inspection of the de-
tailed returns wiz. prove that many pre-
cincts which normally should have given
large Republican majorities were brought
down to a ''stand-off'' by the energetic
and efficient wofk that was done.
This spr;ng. the same efforts are being
made in every Republican ward. The
Ninth will certainly be carried both by
Mr.. Knoeller and Mr.. Scott, and it is be-
aieved they will carry the headg Of the
ticket through with them. In the~Eighth
Ward, the Republican majority Used to
be very large. five or six hundred. This
is E. w. Woolley's owfps bafiiwick, and
desperate efforts are being made to hold
Il. But so vigorous has been the work
Of the Democratic County4c ommitteemen
and the Democratic Association having
It's Headquarters in the ward. that it is
believed the Republican majority viii
melt away on Election Day. More than
one shrewd politician thinks the ward
win be carried by Daniel M. Shine for
Alderman, and all agree that if he is
beaten it will be by a greatly reduced
vote. Then. there is the Seventh Ward.
the Greenvilie section. Yesterday 1.-THE
News told Of the progress Of the cam
Baign IN that section. Republican dissen-
sions are enormously aiding the Democ-
But. IN addition, a band Of earnest
young Democrats have organized a cam
paign club, and are pushing the light for
all they are worth.
These are the true tactics. The war
should always be carried into the enemy's
country. When this is done as vigorously
as i has been in this campaign, victory
is assured.

THE CONVENTION.

St. Louis, July 25.-The popu1ist con- vention was called to order by Senator Allen at $40 o'clock, and after prayer by the Rev. MT. Kent of Washington the chairman repeated his ruling of last night, that the amendment adopted by the convention giving the nomination of a vice president preference over the nomination of president made the selec- tion of national committeeman the next order of business.
 MT. J. K. Burnett of California pro- tested that this was not so, and contend ed that the convention simply transpos- ed the nomination of vice president and president. The chairman replied that the gentleman's statement of the fact was entirely mistaken, and went on with the naming of national committeeman When this was completed he called next for committees on notification.
 The sergeant-at-arms announced that their contract with the Business Mems association (which included the supply of music) had run out, so that there would be no band today. Unapprecia. tive delegates greeted this announce ment with cries of good" and cheers
 The chair announced that the next or. der of business was nominations foi president
 MT. Green of Nebraska got on the plat.
 
 The latter was to the effect that this was one of the most important conven- tions that ever assembled on American soil. and it was to name man who was not only to head the ticket, but who was to be elected.
 ed by points of order which irritated MT, Green to the extent of making him leave the stand. He was induced to come back. and the rules were suspended to enable him to go on in order. He de- clared, however, that his self-respect would prevent him saying anything, and he retired for good.
 Alabama being called, MT George Gather of that state, addressing his "brothers and sisters of the convention" |" yielded to James B. Weaver, who, he said. would name the man who would be the running mate of Tom Watson and run the goldbugs out of existence.
 MT. Weaver came forward and was presented by the chairman.
 MT Weaver opened his speech with the remark that the condition of the peo- ple's party this morning was most "crit- icaL" He had but two aspirations. One was to preserve untarnished and un- broken the great principles of the party, and the other was to preserve the party organization flor present and future uses in every portion of the country"
 He assumed that all the delegates had read Tn the papers tnls morning the tel egram from MT. Bryan declining to ac- cept the nomination of the peoples par ty disassociated from Mir. Sewall. "No man. said MT. Weaver, "could
 Have Done Loss and Be Man. MT. Bryan's attitude challenges the re- epect of every delegate present and ofey- cry man who reads the proceedings of this convention. But" he continued, this Is Q greater question than the per- sonalfty of our candidates. After I read Mir. Bryan's telegram utterly re- fused--and now utterly refuse-to con cur with the desire of Mir. Bryan or of
