The Banner-Dcmocrat has learned
from q Texas paper that the third
party has added three new plaEks
to its platform as follows: 1.-THE
first one is to cross the lightning
bug on the honey bee, SO that the
latter can see 10 work at night.
thus doubling the supply OF honey,
and making it cheaper to the con-
sumner. The second plank demands
that the hog shall be crossed with
the centipede. SO that each hog will
have 100 hams, and the .hirG party
can eat hams three times day.
The third plank proposes 10 engraft
the strawberry upon the milkweed,
so that the people can have straw
berries and cream without going to
the trouble Of mixing them. These
planks are SO seductive that II is
expected that every one will flop
over to tue third party"

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS

As the days pass aud convention
after convention meets. it be.
comes clearer that the advocates o1
free silver vii: control the Demo
cratic National Convention, franc
the platform and name the candl.
dates. A month ago the two
factions Of the Democratic party
stood equally divided IN the number
Of delegates elected, and the sue
cess that the goldbugs had met with
in Michigan and south Dakota en-
courased them to hope that with
the assistance Of the Federal patron
age they would be able to control
enough of the States to have ma
jority. Since then, however, it has
been disaster after disaster.
In but a single State (Florida)
have they won even a partial victory.
There through the interference OF
the corporations aud the lavish use
OF money on their part, the gold
bugs captured half Of the delegates,
in spite of the fact that majority
of the men elected 70 the State con-
vcntion stood pledged to silver.
Two weeks ago, as we showed, the
silver men had a majority of 90;
this has now increased to lag. So
far forty States and Territories have
elected delegates, as follows:
For Bimetalism, $50.
For Monometalism, 234.
There remain only eleven States
aud Territories to elect, and OF these
the goldbuss cannot under any cir
cumstances carry more than three.
As matter of fact, enough delegates
are already chosen in Georgia, II
linois, Indiana, Ohio and Texas to
settle in advance how these conven-
tons will stand, while Nevada and
North Carolina are above suspicion.
These eleven States will elect dele
gates as follwos:
For Bimetalis 204.
For MonOmetaSlsm, lO2.
The vote in the convention. there
fore, will probably stand:
For silver, 594.
Against silver, $50.
Majority for silver, 258.
This is not quite a two-thirds
vote, but very close to it.
Within the last month, as we
have said, the gold Democrats have
conceded the election of a majority
of the Chicago convention favorable
to silver This point is no longer
in dispute, and the question now is
how will they accept defeat! Will
they bolt, as Teller did from the
St. Louis convention, or will they
accept the decision Of the majority?
At first it looked very much like .
bolt. The New York Herald, the
Post, the Brooklyn Eagle and other
extreme s'sound money" papers Of
the East declared that the gold men
must bolt. They were brought face
to face with the question of whether
they would surrender their ideas Of
honesty to the views of 3 majority
of the convention. aud no honest
man, they declared, could do this !;
but since then there has been = very
marked change Of sentiment. Ex-
Whitney and other lead
ing New York gold-bugs, who it was
feared would bolt, have announced
their intention Of accepting the will
Of tue majority, and the indications |
are that the Chicago convention
will be spared an inauspicious scene
like the Teller bolt at St. Louis.
Not since President Cleveland !
financial policy drove the Demo-
cratic ship OF state on the gold reefs,
and so nearly wrecked il. have the
Democratic presidential prospects
looked SO promising --Tiines-DemO-

the simpler the treatment the bet
ter. Slight scariiication and blister

by hot emuleions to procure snppu-
