Mon who viii Chip for Bryan.

New York, Sept. before Chairman
Hanna Of the Republican National Com
mittee announced his appointment of
members of the Executive Committee
there was lot of talk on the part of free
silver advocates about the probability of
his naming a committee composed al
most entirely of millionaires. or, as the
Popocrats say, "plutocrats." Several
Bryan newspapers went SO far as to give
lists of the millionaires. The predic-
lions were not realized. Mr.. Hanna did
not appoint the millionaires. Senator
Jones, Chairman of the Popocrar Ma
tional Committee, however, has named
several wealthy men on his campaign
committee, not because Of any experience
they have ever had in political campaign
work, but simply because they are the
men who would most benefit by the free
coinage of silver. The best representa-
tive of this very small class is William
9. Clark of Montana, one of the wealth
lest of the silver mine owners of the
country. Mr.. Clark is said to be worth
at least SIS, 100000 and he is expected to
contribute literally to the Bryan fund.
There is lot more of these millionaire
mine owners who will contribute to aid
the cause of unsound money. In fact
some of them have already done so, ac-
cording to a story told by well-in-
formed westerner now in this city. He
says that David Moffat, the boss silver
mine owner of Colorado, has dropped
100000 into the Bryan hat, and that
Stratton of Montana has contributed an
additional $4,000,

GEN. aRosvENoas CRACKER.
A Story Which Applies Z. candidate Bry-
ans Case.

General Grosvenor, who spoke in Deer
ing last nighu, was in New York Sunday
and when asked what he thought of the
Republ lean prospects, said;
My reputation as political mathe-
matician has been made, " he said with
laugh, "and would be foolish to
injure it now by making any predictions
as to she result of the election In Novsm-
bar. After my return from Maine may
be inclined to indulge In figures little.
AS 1t is now, any thing l have to say
must BIO of the most general character.
II know, for instance, that Bryan's
spectacular tour has not made votes
for him in Ohio. Big crowdsiwentlto see
him there, but they were not converted
to his political notions know that is
the case with thousands who went to
Columbus from my section of the state.
They were drawn there merely by curl
osity to see the candidate. ] am assured
that he made no votes, and the curious
came back confirmed in their intention
to vote for Mckinley.
Il find that Republican campaigner
has to be mighty careful this year about
what he says. There are SO many Demo
Gratis going tn vote our way that we have
to be cir cumspect lest we offend them,
and lt is easy to do that. I think the
best thing / can do down ia Maine is
TO Wofk IN the interest OF the Demo-
Gratis and try to get Mr.. Sewall off the
Popooratic tic ket. Poor Bryan seems to
be much In Jne same case regarding his
associates on the ticket as lank Georgia
cracker who was our guide through
the mountains ON the march to the sea.
The old fellow Was as lugub rious OF
countenance as any mortal man
I ever saw. On our march
this guide met neigh Dor who changed
courtesies with HIN, asking him about
the GROWN and the runnin'-the last
being reference to Illicit distilling-
and finally touched on his domestic es-
tablishment. Our guide explained that
his family was all right except his wife
who was 'porely. She had been SO i'll
with the rheumatic and other ills that
she had not cooked meal of viotuals
for months. Our a guides friend COM
miserated with him and expressed the
hope that the old woman would soon get
we'll.
with long drawn sigh our cracker
guide responded:
$50 do Tor suthin.''
1T looks to me very much as though
Bryan would he greatly relieved if
'suthin' would happen to either Sewall
or Watson"
Warner Miller returned last night from
a stamping tour in Maine. He says he
will not be surprised if the Republican
majority is 40, 900 there.
